自離開歐利伽米之後，這三天眾人一直各忙各的沒空聯絡。難得梓承和克里斯惹得哄堂大笑，驚魂甫定的各人便索性在原地交換起情報來。
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEWyaIISKb
綜合各人所說，梓承很快便掌握到大家在過去兩天的動向。首先是莫里斯和丹尼花了兩天時間，終於成功聯絡正躲著衛兵隊的克里斯。然後就在雙方見面的時候，一群灰衣人不知從何處冒出來見人就斬，而正在街上做直播的維比還有替馬庫斯買藥的艾莉娜更是首當其衝。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2saZce9omu
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jbF214Lqu
維比想起剛才千鈞一髮的處境，帶着餘怯的怒道：「那些衛兵之前還到處抓人，現在竟然在街上半個人影都沒看到，就連衛兵局的大門也被反鎖，根本兩幫人就是蛇鼠一窩嘛！如果剛才不是菲恩及時放箭，後果真的是不堪設想！」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSFoBLPPif
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYhN66wwm9
丹尼聞言朝地上啐了一口唾沫，手指劈啪作響的道：「我認得那些灰衣人裡頭有幾個黑道的傢伙，沒想到魯珀特的混帳竟然跟黑道聯手對付普通市民。怎樣，有誰想跟我去衛兵局大鬧一番，出出這口烏氣？」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwdLMJGYyg
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8R1hddTZZ
對此提議，坎迪絲和部份學生當然立即拍手叫好，但莫里斯和埃里克卻認為當前急務是要把傷者送到聖域醫療隊總部。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3tN5hXIy8
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mBAxJFF6A
就在各人七嘴八舌議論紛紛之際，一直在一旁沉默不語的艾莉娜突然聽到了一聲呼喚。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylcumXgrIP
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJsPh8PuLd
「艾莉娜，你還好嗎？有沒有受傷？」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4Q3JbJZ1S
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMDAkkX2is
她抬頭一望，只見梓承一臉擔憂的看著自己。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPYJVKkP8C
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡix6A4bmH2C
又一次被菲恩保護了呢。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiu8DJhxc3
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlYlnz8w1E
艾莉娜想起在阿爾塔湖，在那漫天螢火蟲的湖邊，眼前這個男生向她許下了一個小小的承諾。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvcCLZKqoZ
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKeVwbKAQl
你會保護我嗎？495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMCaBHj4BU
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpqlqmYaS6
他做到了。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCg8HP04l79
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpI86X2Qs5K
可是她並沒有感到特別高興。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm25AoBIVsf
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHch6zQxS6Q
「我……沒事。」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKpz199pat
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvQJhEA8sF
不對，這不是她想要說的話。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20tN2ACEAS
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwwyBZDTxu
可是看著梓承靜靜地站在那裡，擔心的神情寫滿了整張臉，原本想要說的話便卡在喉嚨說不出來。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXDbAEtMtS
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkiGJ7XjHR
「菲恩履行了湖邊那晚的承諾呢。」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFfMCRiMsM
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUQflD7IAn
艾莉娜莞爾一笑，嫣然大方的笑靨讓梓承不覺看得痴了。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsjJhEbISz
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBZI428WRu
但很可惜，他始終沒能察覺到那張笑臉背後隱藏着的淡淡哀傷。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJPV5saLqw
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRNWyDhsYK
要這樣一直躲在他的背後受他保護嗎？495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkpx2FigQL
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhZ3lHaMTF
自目睹梓承在競技場賭命似的戰鬥之後，艾莉娜便開始意識到，自己不願躲在這個男人的背後，一次又一次看著對方為了別人弄得傷痕累累而自己卻什麼都做不到。尤其當聽到坎迪絲眉飛色舞地說著梓承如何在河堤上以遊戲退敵，還有維比稱讚着梓承百步穿楊的箭術成功將大家救出，當初在祈願殿堂因為全是無用技而沮喪不已的男生，現在已經成為她無法輕易講出「想要跟你並肩一起走」的英雄。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JVyCNDB3n
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8k72BIt7Dl
「只有【關愛】和【分享】兩個無用技的我，有資格站在你身旁嗎？」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTDBhp3I4i
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcUdIOoxkZ
她想不通，為什麼想走在喜歡的人身邊竟然會是這麼的困難。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv354KJCeN
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHz6xAjJ3r
就像那晚在湖邊捉緊了的溫度，如今正在不知不覺中逐漸消失，而她卻一點辦法都沒有。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCnxurPq1r
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2AU3RDTHJ
「如果我也能戰鬥的話……」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5wmSsgzgK
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2ALzOSaE8
就在一滴淚水從艾莉娜臉頰滑落之際，雪露的呼喊剛好讓梓承轉過了頭，錯過了最重要的那一秒。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86zeuy64Wi
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqZRX4O2tg
艾莉娜聽著雪露和梓承對答。在經歷數次出生入死之後，某種牽絆正在這兩人之間交織起來。而相對地，艾莉娜卻感到跟梓承之間的距離越來越遠。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xdFeraUG6
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GBNbQOVeo
「艾莉娜……」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡij9JkqQq3t
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrvpMmGdRq
梓承跟雪露說罷回過頭來，但艾莉娜卻已經不在。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJy103VdmiX
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYEt1nYYaS
「你有能力救人，但憑這樣的你還是無法給她幸福的。」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiI4RIS0FPI
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9mpKheygD
莫里斯突如其來的說話讓梓承止住腳步，一臉愕然站在原地。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcRTzLfRAy
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoKq3B0n3Y
「莫里斯，你這句話是什麼意思？」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJ7HYuBD3w
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnI9E7aQrl
「你對艾莉娜有多了解？她的過去、她的喜好、她的想法，你知道多少？我跟她一起在聖域長大，十多年時間，她所有的優點和缺點我都清清楚楚。」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqhoV59o3F
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOul3Nf1Lq
「我知道你和艾莉娜情同兄妹，但……」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTZlsaiZxN
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZobMX1zcjA
「誰要跟她情同兄妹啊！」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SLTUSV8Yf
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJ341qs4lk
「咦？」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdPcgFA0GY
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQeePr3Cvv
「我一直都喜歡艾莉娜！」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2W0HgG3DHJ
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqeM4OmhOF
咦？495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbETixFdyr9
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbItSrtfbZ
慢著慢著，莫里斯那傢伙說什麼？495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsGdCTwqBf
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTDiMdeeHu
喜歡？495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebYXpFvGJW
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcSySmpdf5
梓承起初還以為自己聽錯，但看到莫里斯正經八百的模樣，他突然想起在歐利伽米的時候，莫里斯就硬塞過一瓶超難喝，口感猶如生吞惡臭史萊姆的提神劑給他。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFodrYe4P7E
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbSb7gHdVZ
「你這傢伙！那晚給我超難喝的提神劑，原來是在公報私仇！」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyPIwwq4Xo
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5GQv5QOeA
莫里斯嘿嘿一笑道：「怎樣？要保命退出的話，現在還不算遲哦。」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMR2yCfva2
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZY5FrkuTm
作為一個標準宅男，梓承在愛情面前打退堂鼓本是理所當然的事。可是當他一想到離開赫澤爾頓之後，這生恐怕難再看到艾莉娜的笑臉 —— 一種陌生的揪心痛楚讓他打住了念頭。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNROpSKUfkS
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG66hgdMIuU
最後他選擇了無視莫里斯的喊聲，邁步往前追上艾莉娜。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvBDO5HmQe
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mu2n1Sx4z
不管了。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfh2IbhjLlN
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5RgYeQ5L3
即使離開赫澤爾頓之後要去哪裡、要怎樣生活，還有許多細節現在都沒有答案，但這刻他還是想把這份任性的想法傳遞給她。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezqMc7KWLF
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQfbqd3GVO
最後他從後捉住了艾莉娜的手。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97KOFEK4BF
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVSr3XyrQL
「等等，艾莉娜。有件事……」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09i8ci6wYh
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlMEfbIc1p
「你們怎麼可以突然在這裡封路！」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOUHOV0iii
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPVrph6sTB
「不就是嘛！我們是普通市民，你們衛兵隊憑什麼無緣無故妨礙我們回家！」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PRENN7DaR
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcLcxUsHRT
梓承呆一呆，發現前面人山人海。在愛德華大道中央位置，不知道什麼時候被衛兵架起了一道臨時關卡，將通往豪宅區的道路徹底堵死了。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdJnoWUvyt
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFDWjNPMHH
「你們現在正進行非法集結，請馬上離開，否則我們將會使用最低武力將你們驅趕！」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Pdl3nifob
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlIbN0lYsU
衛兵冷冰冰的廣播進一步激化已經沸騰了的民怨。不少人甚至開始向臨時關卡投石，嘴上破口大罵。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3jaGFwvuy
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOS0mxnXXy
「不見人！剛才那些灰衣人襲擊我們的時候你們這些衛兵隊跑到哪裡啦！」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZmaNKatOc
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdkJpTrt9a
「你們這些衛兵隊知不知道羞恥兩個字呀！」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3zHpa1pP6
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyvWQYJSHA
在一片「開關」的喊聲下，衛兵隊再次豎立黑色的警告旗幟，手持盾牌和武器的衛兵在關卡面前一字排開，眼見流血衝突是已經無可避免。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyPwug7glF
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHW0mohj91a
「最後一次警告，立即離開愛德華大道，否則我們將會使用武力！」495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXzGGl0gco
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ287ipDmvNk
沒有給任何理由，也沒有任何協商的餘地。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOjPIWxAVW
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOM0aWFPgL
現在後退，就要回到灰衣人所在的街道。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47SsiSjdib
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyk3y0GTuhI
而前進，也要跟全副武裝的衛兵正面交鋒。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIkJoS6H4M
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqpYloc4Sv
被逼進絕境的民眾眼神開始轉變，紛紛露出一副豁出去的神情。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBvrnffyJs
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoavCG0DJKT
一場雞蛋與高牆的戰鬥，即將就要在愛德華大道上爆發起來。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlGd6FNPPy
495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4iKeUxQxTF
這場暴力衝突，就是後來王國嚴禁民眾提起或哀悼的「愛德華大道襲擊事件」。495Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpWSCYSG4E
