迴響的隆隆聲如同夢境般遠去。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbiuOp7yk0
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Gp1etuXuC
從開出的小縫裡，一道狹窄的光切開了無邊無際的黑暗。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrxQlJ7l2T
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoyTStxbUf
杜若四肢著地地爬出櫥櫃，然後回過頭托著紫藤的肩膀離開那片狹小的黑暗。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkNZ9YWofG
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DdALGJmSJ
兩人並著肩在階梯旁仰起頭喘著氣，久違地照進眼裡的燈光刺眼眩目，但再怎麼說也比不見天日的黑暗要來得令人安心。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkyIoKcMfr
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QsnQuG9BW
連沙華會都靜謐下來，就代表連凌晨也快要結束了吧。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEi5Sc6lVj
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTnkmIH2Nf
就連喘息的時間也如同光明般狹窄，兩人不可能在這再休息到早晨來臨。於是，杜若一感覺到力氣開始回流到四肢時，就起身伸出手牽起虛弱的紫藤。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUCQT0Sd9W
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsswpoT6MX1
「走吧。我們一起回去。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbT0wtbkpM
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkIVXW9Bqa
這麼說了之後，杜若便鑽進紫藤的脅下，用窄小的肩頭努力撐起紫藤向前。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mdzcqC5Fn
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObAy7jidQT
一路上，兩人就這樣攙扶著彼此，幸運地毫無阻礙便回到了西區。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmnNKKftR1
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkJpTvrr4I
為了處理傷口，杜若讓紫藤靠到了床板上頭。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmCPXxwOyM
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFe4iuOjOv5
「嗚……！」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopWuqkQvwE
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXkzrggma4
消毒藥水碰到傷口的劇痛，讓紫藤吃痛地叫出悶聲。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCVmrr3Vb5
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgxGXiAlNk
「很痛嗎……？」杜若停下動作，擔憂地看向紫藤。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UvJSlb4ae
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaPRC38oEV
回到西區的路上，紫藤甚至虛弱到就連話都沒辦法說了。所以哪怕只是一聲也好，杜若也想要聽見紫藤的聲音。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRt1XLGsnYe
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWHADfNm3y
而痛楚彷彿把紫藤的魂給拉了回來，宛如大夢初醒般地看了杜若和手中的棉花棒後，紫藤才喘著氣、略略地頷首。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwybjyDxT3
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzolGO1YSgf
「……我還可以忍。」說完，紫藤打直手臂。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPkJT0hfl8
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBI7Q4G7k5
杜若點點頭，卻宛如做錯了事一般地垂下眼簾。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sB6BjlrrI
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhxRalGmuu
如果不是自己想要聽信墨駒，也不會讓墨駒有機可趁了——但現在後悔也沒有用，照顧受傷的紫藤才是眼下應該做的事。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzU9mPwVMQ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZikz1MD3Gr
「那、再忍耐一下就好。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi4uVdB2JY
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wy8byulSb
「呼、呼……嗚——！」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXA6RN6TThd
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHcqHEBr9z
紫藤試著吸氣來緩和疼痛，卻還是沒辦法不吃痛地發出聲音來。清潔並上完藥後，杜若小心地用紗布蓋起那道駭人的傷口並纏上繃帶，原本純白的繃帶立刻就被染成了一片暗紅。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgXrHIjQM8
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVtxAERNiT
現在只能做這樣的應急處理，等到明天還是得去醫院才行。幸好公用醫療箱裡頭還有這些基本的醫療用品，不然就這樣放著傷口，今晚紫藤恐怕連躺下都會有困難。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXJYowgCuw
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ldsfh2P4f
疼痛過了幾次呼吸才終於緩和下來。杜若拿來水杯靠在紫藤的嘴巴上，讓紫藤小口小口地補充水分。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPwcvZCbaz
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9ppEDm7SR
滋潤冰涼地滑過喉間，直到此時、紫藤才終於有種放下心來的感覺。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzYDgmimUI
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zQVSMwOoN
「還要喝嗎？」杜若捧著還有一半的水杯，輕柔地問。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsjdQcNjYp
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFahNXrLLmX
杜若關心的神情就好像是流經喉頭的水那樣沁入了紫藤的胸口。於是紫藤點點頭，再次把嘴湊了過去。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5rEC5qftn
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2x5qHrNuD
等到杯子空了、正想伸手擦乾嘴角時，杜若就先一步用手帕抹上了紫藤的嘴角。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqf488vXKq8
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnVF12ydlY
「……謝謝。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCMMOg1iyV
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAooGNWK1EK
「不會啦，現在也輪到我照顧紫藤了。」杜若收起手帕，露出了彷彿可以烘乾衣服的溫暖笑容。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe0DfT36Jz
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZCwwSDCx0
明明、對方不久前才在自己的面前殺了人，但現在看著杜若的側臉，紫藤卻盡只感到安心跟鬆了一口氣的感覺一湧而上。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmL7RoXMM4
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZj5KyS4qwt
是自己終於開始習慣了嗎？那時，紫藤的手上就已經流滿鮮血，卻只有砸在墨駒臉上時所沾上的溼黏感格外鮮明。就好像在入睡前的一場夢境，令紫藤感到有些恍惚。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQ7Bl9mYTj
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IeaEYMxYK
不過，這無疑都是事實。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8h628HlPUm
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TBH4vj7hq
掌心中，那枚墨駒沒能拿回去的、鑲著淡紫色寶石的銀戒就是最好的證據。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXTW6hYmZH
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNVjkMa0GO
紫藤壓根也沒想到有能夠尋回這枚戒指的一天。對紫藤來說、只受這點傷就找回了它簡直是太划算了。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHYtEIiWze
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35dhkZ1cEt
「紫藤、這個戒指到底是……？」杜若好奇地看著手中的戒指，疑惑地歪過頭。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQV1vXQP8v6
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahCB8RzMGx
沉默了半晌，紫藤才慢慢地開口。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVG0xV2KJac
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDgrgpWCuG
「是我媽媽的遺物。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfHQqasl75
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1b6epSxt1q
戒指的內緣刻著一行寫著母親名字的小字，證明了這就是那枚獨一無二的戒指。雖然紫藤對父親沒有任何印象，但母親卻經常以懷念的面容提起關於父親的事情。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5erd1vRXgZ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7QI561v26
「咦……？那為什麼會在墨駒的手裡呀？」杜若不假思索地問道。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CSIHK97Pz
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiKJxgAQOg
「我也不知道。」紫藤搖搖頭，黯然地闔上雙眼。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlam9OhEqL
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbbyEFxfwp
紫藤從來不曾對同輩的人說過這些事，但現在、紫藤卻覺得讓杜若知道也無妨。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnhBNb8fsS
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSdF2xTZZM
「可是媽媽他、就是被沙華會的人給殺死的。」就好像在試圖壓下傷口的灼熱似地，紫藤輕撫著前臂的紗布，緩緩地繼續說道：388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7N8qW2leG
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYGKBTqyRn
「小時候，我的媽媽曾經向沙華會借過錢。但最後，媽媽卻因為還不出錢來……而被沙華會給殺了。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2Cb8foAbo
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQnFYRVvbR
媽媽並不是沒辦法還出錢來，只是在最後一刻、錢竟然被劫走了。紫藤怎麼想都覺得奇怪、為什麼就這麼剛好在那種時候？如今，紫藤認為那一切全都是沙華會的伎倆，他們根本沒有想讓母親還清債務的意思，只想在那一年裡壓榨完母親所有的心力、等到沒價值了就宰殺掉而已。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKyfunfEJ0
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhbbAYKmuc
「這就是那時候、他們從媽媽的身上搶走的東西之一。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2oCfVNEhR
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzTfI3MtWJ
紫藤至今——至死都不會忘記母親在自己的眼前被殺掉的畫面。年幼的自己只能無力地躲在一旁，看著母親殘忍地被一刀刀殘殺至死。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5W30xkYvB
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckWTgncpOF
從那時起，濺在臉上的那朵紅花就已經在紫藤的心頭生根。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ64So7QOpy
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTpKQaLEHO
只是，紫藤也從未想過竟然會在途中找到母親生前的遺物，紫藤覺得自己簡直幸運的無以復加。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFogJCZdqvZ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkPGd1xRpM
「原來……這是對紫藤來說這麼重要的東西啊。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxZUc1vakh
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGgmqgTHwa
「嗯。」紫藤在胸前連同戒指握緊了拳頭。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSaq0VDvkP
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5UQXEj5JE
對紫藤來說，媽媽所留下的東西沒有一個不是珍貴的。無論是這個房間、髮飾、還是這枚戒指，都是媽媽曾經存在過的證明。哪怕再也微不足道，紫藤也想要盡可能地將它們攬在手中。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhGNxcRdvU
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpBHAB1M5o
自己已經不想要再失去任何東西了。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhBij5NlI2
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuEpGrPwmF
「紫藤的媽媽是個什麼樣的人、可以跟我說說嗎？」杜若露出了既好奇又害怕冒犯的眼神、試探地探出腦袋。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyooXIZbkf
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0PctD4AjN
紫藤思考地垂下了眼簾幾秒。而再次睜開眼時，紫藤已經將目光放到了不知遙遠的何處。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXUWeKO5tD
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO8IjizgAb
「媽媽他——」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHyfzOUZSq
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvybIpfyPD
以這句話做為開場白後，紫藤便將那些早已被自己翻到泛黃的回憶給拿了出來。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmh9vFHHSQ2
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdbsPOsJyA
小時候，紫藤最常從街上的大叔大嬸嘴聽到的一句話就是「跟媽媽很像」。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHaQAclCYL
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJVgDSeKvE
同樣有著一頭的黑色長髮、話也同樣不怎麼多。而唯一不同的，就是媽媽是個非常堅強的女性，總是用那粗糙而修長的手把紫藤給攬在身後。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuroq3m3Jj
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPwEGsM39l
而媽媽在南區有間小小的、買賣布料的店面，小時候的紫藤最喜歡的就是跟在媽媽後頭一起做生意。儘管有時候會因為笨手笨腳而挨其他大叔大嬸的罵，但那卻是紫藤最為快樂的一段時光。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzfQAJCLfB
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnf9cI9LF5M
只是在紫藤逐漸長大後，媽媽卻漸漸不希望紫藤跟著自己，而想要把紫藤託付給學校。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWEidZ0AwX
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuTecCRb1R
但紫藤一點都不喜歡學校。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDOLcIZwn5
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdF7ohl5nTy
比起那些吵吵鬧鬧又喜歡惡作劇的小孩子，紫藤更喜歡跟在可靠卻寡言的媽媽後頭，幫忙結帳、整理或是裁剪布料。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKsbJye3Cz
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzC2BTCH76
對當時的紫藤而言，媽媽這麼做就好像是想要把自己給拋棄一樣。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd3HBUGEdA
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuUXqWRbPG
於是紫藤頭一次跟媽媽吵架了。那是一場紫藤單方面地對著媽媽出氣的架，從頭到尾媽媽都只是靜靜地傾聽著紫藤的任性，偶爾像在思考著什麼地低下頭來。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lVuwY3yJA
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1V2Rp1hb8j
而在那之後，媽媽就再也沒有要紫藤去上學了。只是摸摸紫藤的頭以後，就像以前一樣，讓磕磕絆絆的紫藤跟在自己的後頭做生意。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Z1aq3JKC9
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡau4sGGNQM8
嗯，這樣就夠了。那時的紫藤只有這麼單純的滿足。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrPjZpq3tq
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKScEfzo79
然而這樣的日子持續不久。在一個秋天的傍晚、鉛炭鎮發生了一起極其嚴重的意外。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQq63nq08Um
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIn7dTnuQU
那是一起倒塌事件。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9RmfDze8f
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhkbmEdfyA
由於鉛炭鎮的樓房蓋的十分緊密，因此只要一棟樓倒塌，便極容易引發連鎖效應。那起倒塌事件就現在的記載，足足有將近二十棟的樓房倒塌、傷亡數更是難以記載。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmyGOltB5z
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnK5n05uoC
雖然沒有受到倒塌事件的直接傷害，但媽媽的店面卻因此全毀，讓兩人頓時失去了幾乎所有的財產。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiB6c00mj3
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0TxHP6R2T
那之後就如紫藤所說，媽媽為了生存而選擇向沙華會借貸。在那一年裡，媽媽幾乎從未闔眼休息、只為了賺回損失的財產。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDDyjgSlW0
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTnTp1xF7G
那時的媽媽早已面容枯槁。而殘忍地將其心力、金錢、生命盡數奪走的惡意，正是沙華會。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLLtHeErfY
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQtN682Tgx
「……我會找到給墨駒這個戒指的人。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqgEV91lC4
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinT8EifKvC
收起回憶，紫藤再次握緊了戒指。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJtWAWSiFt
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjZxurZgKC
「然後，殺了他。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQycMSut5UW
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC4Guo9OSe
紫藤的眼神猶如熾火，沒有一分一毫的搖曳。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpQAWsslut
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzp5GFocpHM
但只不過幾秒，便很快地萎靡了下來。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla0KcT5dtt
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCz7XwQbdD
「可是、我卻下不了手。」紫藤無力地鬆開了手：「不管怎麼樣……我都沒辦法像杜若妳那樣。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipXpb4o6H2
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQTKflgJYJ
明知道沙華會是惡，紫藤卻無法真的對那群敗類下殺手。也許正是因為那時媽媽遭到殺害的畫面烙印得太過深刻，紫藤才會下意識地抑制著、不讓那副景象再次出現吧。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMicHvc1tKR
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDP6gUvpZd
而自己的這份軟弱，既沒有人可以幫助紫藤克服，也不會有人能夠理解——除了杜若。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WvW0MIb0f
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv8O6mRLaT
「原來、這就是紫藤想要跟我一起行動的原因呀。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVmTBqJuOK
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOyXSHVMFL
「……嗯。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTN8gM2l7A
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSKhP8oxPp
那時見到的杜若是如此純粹，就好像一把剛從水中淬出的刀刃般，不帶著任何一絲污穢。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPCMK8bRFu
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ099ytes1C4
紫藤深信，這就是自己向那些骯髒禽獸復仇的楔子。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTmi6GZmdJ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyCuEIMfqY
這就是足以斬斷自己心頭那朵紅花的白刃。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKpzAmHfc0
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6tKOpK7ng
「……杜若妳呢？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSyxBcIEIY
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRJs3NKtvw
紫藤拾起快要滿溢的情感，回望了杜若那如新月般的雙眸。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yJUr7QeV9
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhVxQaO7Rn
「又是為什麼……會開始當殺手？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPTa85GyFi
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcfHwZhzLb
剛才、杜若確實說過想要請鎮裡最好的醫生，但杜若看起來並不像是患有什麼嚴重疾病或是殘缺的樣子。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuaJrN8mEg
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlK1xR32i2r
聽見紫藤的疑問，杜若就好像是在思考、也像是在害怕似地垂下了眼簾。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ486pTjps7W
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKF0SPDNT2
「紫藤……不會生氣吧？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnowYOJxmw
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHd48dETvp
杜若果然還在意著那時自己的衝動。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaRyYgxTt8
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO47jGrVF7O
但如果是要請醫生，怎麼樣也不會是做不好的事吧？紫藤這麼想著，舉起沒受傷的手摸了摸杜若的頭頂。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjusW2y70P
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDroVdTyDiH
「不會。」紫藤堅定地說：「我保證。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM3etrEICi
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnwVJ8MfoX
等到紫藤緩緩收起手後，杜若才按著胸口，下定決心地開口。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpAkqHSbL4
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxKFTxRBFV
「……我想要救陶壺叔。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfcWw5QkUe
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9loYGmxBwG
杜若喃喃吐出的回答令紫藤感到十分意外。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFULJsqPcXj
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MJB7Zi14R
之前見到陶壺叔確實是在北大街，但陶壺叔本人看上去並沒有多大的病痛呀？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc2EtT9riJ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyaNPnjNLP
就好像發現了紫藤的疑惑，杜若幽幽地繼續說道：388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5r2oQsFBz
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPkcVI5Sp0
「陶壺叔生的是一種會讓身體漸漸沒辦法動的病。醫生說，雖然現在只有手指，但很快就會變成手、腳、身體……最後是心臟。只要過不了四年，陶壺叔就會被那種病給殺死了。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjnI9wFu3X
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqIDufwEhy
全身慢慢就會不能動的病？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzVXSovuPZ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGiNaIZJCy
這種病紫藤是頭一次聽見。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZBluNPi2K
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiS6FiROEUH
「我也偷偷問了很多醫生，但他們都說那是一種沒辦法治好的病。明明是這樣，但陶壺叔從來都沒跟我說過、還一直都笑著裝作沒事。直到我不小心聽到其他醫生跟白鵑提到陶壺叔，我才知道陶壺叔一直都瞞著我。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo565trKJWo
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMuM2f31OW
「現在陶壺叔已經沒辦法走很長的路、也不太能拿重的東西了。」杜若的口氣變得哀傷起來，卻也有一份同等重量的不甘心。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU3Hzu08pw
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPakPqGPRCf
「我明明也想要幫忙陶壺叔的，可是、我卻不知道自己到底該怎麼做才好——因為就連醫生都沒辦法了嘛。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtTzEipeWp
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6B9yV5dfF
杜若的笑只看得見無力。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1WWNIQihO
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HnRmMIxAJ
「直到有天，狐狸告訴我說她有辦法，但前提就是要幫忙她去殺掉那些人。所以，狐狸才發給了我這把槍、還有手機。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cLCr95Lod
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h6BNsJS97
到這裡，杜若便沒有繼續說下去了。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡermGImhByQ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡny3qrFilD7
並不是因為仇恨，也不是因為利益，而只是單單地想要為某人而付出。杜若的理由就跟個性一樣是如此單純、甚至令紫藤的胸口刺痛。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HoL4AFalD
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYK0iLG99Je
然而，紫藤卻忍不住想要質疑的念頭。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5V6Pz9Gbp
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65roa0kVRt
「那個狐狸、真的就這麼值得相信嗎？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToY66jtb11
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLLa73jbike
如果就連鎮裡最優秀的人都沒辦法了，狐狸又怎麼可能醫好陶壺叔的病？再者，就算殺死的是沙華會的人，讓還只是女孩的杜若去持槍犯險本身就很荒謬。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu3XNQQQ1O
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRDkCYizCH
「……狐狸一直都對我很好呀。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EjbfokpYL
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1faAFI0Tlm
杜若笑了。卻讓人分不清那是真的笑容、還是在故作堅強，讓紫藤的鼻子裡無聲地滑過一陣酸楚。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUILsQZiXeh
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1geVHnYeb
「所以，我還是相信狐狸。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7TU20P8Gt
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3g8ZVk6Tx
杜若就好像在對自己喊話似地緊緊握起拳頭，但小小的手中、有的卻只有虛無。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpkuafooV8
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4Jr8VKEce
也許這麼說太過自以為是，但紫藤從這道笑容裡看到的並不是想要相信、而是不得不相信。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlqrDu0IVP
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRoIlzQVdz
只因為狐狸的許諾是杜若的最後一絲曙光。所以杜若除了抓住它以外也別無他法——僅僅就只是如此而已。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZL6GoyRtTU
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqdfbUETob
哪怕、就算那道光芒是朝自己射出的子彈也一樣。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqM4AgcBTl
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61KtKg44Kh
紫藤也曾望著母親的背影被偽裝成曙光的惡火給吞噬殆盡。但只因為如此，就可以不負責任地說聲「放棄吧」把一切希望給澆熄嗎？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡez83AemLnY
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm1o9kf6VH
這怎麼可能。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd96N0uQNJ4

沒有人知曉光芒的後頭是陽光亦或是惡火，但倘若停止腳步、也只會在黑暗消逝。無論是誰，追逐光芒都是與生俱來的本能。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrocfOz7EV
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9V5q4zBQp0
看著杜若緊握的手，紫藤便不捨地伸出手、略顯生硬地鑽進了那冰涼而纖弱的掌心。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a2orZDujH
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgEGgzA3yc
也許，杜若一直都是握著這樣飄渺晃蕩的希望走來，但起碼現在、紫藤能夠確實地握住杜若。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTR2wezwYr
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzh3Ii2nHzQ
如果杜若前進的方向是惡火，那紫藤就要在最近的地方拉住杜若。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwgtt8RuW2
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRmzkSh6bn
察覺到掌心的柔軟，杜若看著紫藤靦腆地一笑。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo3C77be50
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHp7CP5srtG
轉動手腕、解開五指，那份只屬於兩人相握時的溫熱便從掌心蔓延到了指縫388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCOlwzP9h5
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrL5JGUGaj
「但就算這樣，我也還是想自己去試試看。」經過短暫的沉澱，杜若再次充滿生氣地抬起頭來。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICWdjZh07Q
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupX6FCuGL0
「我想只要有夠多的錢的話，也許就可以把大家一起找來、找出能夠馬上醫好陶壺叔的辦法了！」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o384Wl6VV
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGOFkh5a24
剛才籠罩著的陰鬱被一掃而空，杜若看著紫藤，露出了開朗的笑容。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2ekxeREuN
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPDpfi5c5j
「不過，果然還是不能夠靠沙華會的人呢。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QEg64NGIk
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZAih1sS7n
經過剛才被反擊的經驗，讓兩人都對這點有了更多的共識。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoznjORT0K
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡho7RUTPgas
說了句「話說回來」後，杜若就一轉話鋒、向紫藤問道：388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgrfhC0tvV
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNExKZ7Fxj
「紫藤想要殺掉的人又是誰呀？紫藤還記得嗎？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8jbptMcYC
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FMIQYXA3N
這問題讓紫藤才想起自己從沒有跟杜若——不、甚至是從沒有跟任何人說過這件事。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwI4iDAwcqe
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrbfVKdvRj
「是一個……在脖子後面紋著白色線條的沙華會紋身的人。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpom0aecXVD
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bi6wxlQqc
從腦海深處的角落翻出這片景象。那人在殺害媽媽時，紫藤只有一瞬間記下了那個至今都從未看見第二次的特殊紋身。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEaO8u8aFK
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaEftYNFlz
「沙華會的紋章幾乎都是鮮紅色的、有白色條紋的紋身……我就只見過那麼一次。但不管我怎麼找、那個人卻就好像消失了一樣，再也沒有出現過。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYVOGjqcyP
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWph1lhWQt
而唯一有可能知道的墨駒已經被殺了，但紫藤並不感到後悔。比起狡獪的他們，紫藤更寧願靠自己的手去搜索。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3DMYbBgBP
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqrwEnG6ih
「這樣的話，我也來幫忙吧！」杜若自告奮勇地舉高手：388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcQczdtwWa
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLTRMppHqZ
「兩個人一起找絕對比較快的！」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZHtGQqyhB
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8emX236ub
杜若的模樣、讓紫藤晚了一步才發現自己說錯了話。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eqMZ8q6QL
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29N9yla1t2
紫藤默默地低下頭、沉聲回答。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZgYOh86Zv
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJtdpISowT
「……不用那樣。我……我自己就夠了。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyq6riX1rf
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ804HFqhrw1
這冷淡的回答讓杜若頓時像被潑了水的貓咪似地一愣。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wGaSo58bt
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVTr7Kb5WD
「可是、紫藤不是說到現在都……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHYdWOlq9y
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJojERqOwN
「這本來就是我自己的事。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqjPZ5dvhi
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOf2jh8Ft3
就算杜若能夠輕鬆地下殺手，但自己的復仇跟杜若是兩回事。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXfVS6NPD5
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ29imjtKHN
紫藤很清楚自己的眼前只有惡火。而單單只是殺手的任務就已經足夠危險，杜若根本沒有必要為此承擔這些危險。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLGqUHjhzE
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv24LfiV720
「那要是紫藤遇到危險怎麼辦！」倏地，杜若站起身、提高音量388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJew2vILce
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nOY4cEMdw
「我就是為了保護自己，才會去學習要怎麼搏鬥。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pRizEsELE
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiE7wbU47r
紫藤明白杜若的擔憂。但紫藤正是為了不讓自己在完成復仇前先被吞沒，才用盡了心力去磨練自己。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMS1JP9DI9
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9rYrIxbCQ
「可是、假如對方有槍、假如遇到像今天一樣的事……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELKmrEPpH2
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2b2nKNcVNZ
「我是不會讓自己被殺死的。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhly31t1A5
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9rEDyb2sJ
「紫藤明明就傷成這樣、還說這種話……！」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFRrsIijsB
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3eB4FSOMX
看見紫藤一副無所謂的模樣，杜若更是焦急到話都說不清楚了。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdLieM8brb
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz2lf7hmgk
紫藤沒能給出杜若期待的回應。卻還是於心不忍地輕握住了杜若的手。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVh8CztmQ4N
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyhCDvh62S
杜若雖然想甩開，但卻在一半就失去了力氣。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fKnhZA4C4
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPrC5i9NYg
「明明、明明紫藤也硬是摻進了我的事情，現在卻又說這種話、這樣真的太不公平了……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtACtwPNIK
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9GqNC6sLg
杜若像個鬧彆扭的孩子一樣發起脾氣，但鬧彆扭的人卻總是最認真的。也因此，紫藤才無從反駁。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrzdh2w3pq
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAyezkM2JR
是啊，明明就是自己先不講理地要杜若帶著自己的，這樣又有什麼資格拒絕杜若呢？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmCH3N9rSc
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKrYc8nAiR
但就算不公平也好，紫藤之所以握著杜若的手，絕非是要杜若陪著自己跳進火海。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvK31Dvbh2
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbwSGzlgRA
最後，紫藤還是用了奸詐的說法。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3e8nDc7TZ4
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqg9cISfski
「我跟陶壺叔約定過，說不會讓妳受傷了。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFv9j8ZvcPL
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksDNp591JG
「那難道紫藤要我看著妳受傷嗎？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8P203EQqU
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxnTN2i5SG
雖然夾雜著鼻音、但這句話卻如此強而有力。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWFLParJ5M
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3AoPzN5aL
在八年前的那個夜晚、紫藤也是那樣地看著母親被一刀刀殘殺致死——明明注視著、卻什麼也做不了的無力是多麼令人痛苦，紫藤比任何人都還要明白。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUrTD8Lhjk
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroTlV3A7iY
杜若也正是因為這樣的痛苦，才選擇了這條看似荒謬的道路。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRU15zrX8SY
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GoNIn5PsS
而紫藤打算再在杜若的身上再添一層相同的痛苦嗎？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40CdaV5FUo
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWuXA0CIcH
紫藤無法回答，只是沉默地別開了視線。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWacmwQguhY
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PaE1jVgtY
看見杜若受傷，自己會感到痛苦。而看見自己受傷，杜若會感到痛苦。然而若是因此什麼也不做，又有誰能夠替枉死的母親報仇雪恨？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPehKJ8ioP
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOZCW5LMgf
哪條路都是崎嶇，哪條路也都是痛苦。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtV9aeYVMo
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1slwx4pfYn
如今，在這條路上有個願意走到身旁攜手並進的人，又為何不欣然接受就好？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJQx4VGjjQ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBsCLmx1qx
只因為就連接受也是痛苦吧。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PmXZ4vrvy
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHhEzKI9YY
但、當初不就是因為明白自己沒辦法獨自走完腳下的路，所以才會自顧自地跟在杜若後頭不是嗎？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJ16nDfFCq
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmqd34pOoF
如果說想要把什麼東西給握在手裡、就免不了被刺出鮮血。那麼起碼受傷的方式可以交由彼此來抉擇。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4iKAVR3vd
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZj8OgPfWiF
思及至此，紫藤才慢慢地放鬆了手中的力道。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0Y6wOcYWG
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60zvsU4dCs
「答應我、要先保護好妳自己。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmmSZVWXww
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBCZglgM7U
紫藤不帶一絲玩笑地注視著杜若的雙眼，而看見紫藤的神情，杜若才終於破涕為笑。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ3tMC4LMB
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMcCFWNyN9
「可是，紫藤會保護我的吧？這樣我的份不就用不到了？」杜若歪著頭反問。然後扣緊了紫藤安放在腿上的手。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9eN60G4Ne
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5BCvXCC3X
「所以，我的份就用來保護紫藤吧！」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjGencbSUM
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTT1U8pxozB
紫藤雖沒有點頭，卻還是回望著對方微微笑，回握住指縫間的柔軟。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGqzMrsPT8
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6UIzD5fVK
「喔喔！紫藤笑了耶！」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMultzOMMZ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrlwWqeZhX
頭一次看見紫藤的笑容，讓杜若欣喜地舉高手，卻不小心拉起了紫藤負傷的前臂而使紫藤臉色一緊。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9T1W3x1Cur
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsJ7ioV2hQ
「哇啊啊——！對不起！」杜若立刻慌張地放下手來。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoT6x01jXvX
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvTQSHYTXy
疼痛雖然還沒散去，但紫藤還是發自內心地笑了。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEaSv8DNii
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCo4ENvcSV
「……對了！」這時，杜若突然靈機一動地眼神一亮：「不知道可不可以請狐狸幫紫藤找找看呢？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RVSf5LCZd
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ514TRjphTj
「咦？」這提議讓紫藤也感到意外地眨了眨眼。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB18QxV2szS
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XU3PnJVdN
「雖然是我自己猜的……不過狐狸應該很擅長找人吧。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3kvZ9uOow
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UHN3va7ko
應該說如果那個狐狸不擅長，就不可能精確地知道目標的出沒地點與時間吧。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbVrlcry4e
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLEKv0QwEA
紫藤確實沒想到這個方法——不，更應該說是刻意忽略掉了才是。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RmxzhqD4k
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1GRPaZgmP
紫藤還是沒辦法相信一個就連臉都沒見過、還讓杜若做這麼危險的事情的人。把這樣重要的任務託付給對方真的妥當嗎？光是想的就有種不踏實感。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkovmkcjZos
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9wjFjcfND
不過，如果那個狐狸願意幫忙，也許真的會是一大助力。比起自己的脾氣，不是更應該去想要怎樣才能早一步替母親報仇雪恨才對嗎？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WtJr5iWOF
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cARew6ciV
自己尋覓這麼多年來都毫無所獲，而現在就有一個或許能夠跨出一大步的機會，又怎麼能夠放棄？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTH3IcxpmK
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7cjVTF5GN
「那……可以幫我跟狐狸說說看嗎？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pRpm0BaK7
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamknm2Nq8x
「當然呀，這是我提議的嘛～」杜若自信地抱起手臂、挺起胸膛。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfBp995s4J
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPYLgkC4nJ
就在這時，紫藤注意到了杜若的手肘與膝蓋上也有著斑斑的擦傷。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQo2qIBkXzT
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChIrvVpxZP
是被墨駒踢倒的時候撞上的吧。雖然不比紫藤嚴重，但印在杜若柔嫩的肌膚上、還是格外叫人心疼。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrKVI7XgZS
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZYlj3ifqE
「妳的傷……換我幫妳吧。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRC4BSTuxI
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0bOPlxPuq
被紫藤一說，杜若才發覺似地看了看自己的傷，露出一派輕鬆的笑容。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE83DmR3ZK
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBOwfBtu89
「我這點傷才沒事啦～」說完，杜若從醫療箱裡頭翻出了幾條止血貼布遞給紫藤。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlyYzw8TSl
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7HP3TdFry
「貼這個應該就可以了。紫藤就幫我一下吧。」說完，杜若也爬到床上坐到了一旁。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM68WlaIjv
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqF82m3A4f
「撕得開來嗎？」杜若看著紫藤有些僵硬的動作，有所顧慮地問。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jE87ZG0rY
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7hcSAIEJ7
「動作不需要太大，沒問題的。」慢慢地撕開膠帶後，紫藤往杜若受傷的手肘上貼去、神情專注。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQmMfn5NRS
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNYlHbE8Gw
「……好了。換膝蓋吧。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TEKayiko9
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60xEzagGIS
輕輕撫平皺起的部分，紫藤這才發現杜若一動也不動地盯著自己。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaskzssyOnl
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZz84k7QR9
「我臉上有什麼嗎？」紫藤不解地偏過頭。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CVeVBmQLV
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDp5kneA0q
「唔嗯、沒有呀。」盯得出神的杜若這才回過神來地搖搖頭，靦腆地說道：388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9QEfphT9c
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLrcbKcyqL
「只是覺得紫藤認真的模樣……果然好帥喔。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGD9lRkY7z
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAW1QGjAFzN
突如其來的稱讚，令紫藤頓時耳根一熱。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hBvu5JkGz
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsL5vHuOql2
在道場偶爾也會有人這麼稱讚紫藤——儘管紫藤從不這麼覺得——但明明是同樣的誇獎，為什麼從杜若的嘴巴裡說出來感覺就是不一樣呢？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTg1Chcfk4E
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7toEdZtMaC
「我、我……」不知道該怎麼回應的紫藤搓著發熱的耳朵，無所適從地左右張望，最後才低下頭、用著連自己都快聽不到的聲音悄聲地說了句：388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBc1aZyo5Y
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4nm0hIgma
「謝謝……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HS9yQWRIv
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz5pwer7Ts
「嗯？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFMxsrqCvr
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yPpQ59PSb
「沒、沒有……！」紫藤彷彿像要掩飾過去拉高音量，匆忙地接著說道：「比起那些、還有膝蓋的傷……！」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YfrtXUKAE
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROkXlKCJn1
杜若雖然有些不明白，卻也覺得今天表情豐富的紫藤很有趣，就沒有多問、聽話地打直了雙腳。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5cClYV4tu
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdSonXQDS2
杜若的膝蓋上仍沾著一些汙血，那道傷口印在上頭就好像是件純白禮服上的爛泥一樣顯眼——但就算沾上了爛泥，氣質本身也不會輕易改變。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJfc7oF5X9
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8WRzbi07f
雖然怎樣也稱不上是修長，但杜若的腿卻讓紫藤不禁想到了幼貓那短巧可愛的前腳，讓人忍不住想要伸手捏個一把。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSObAPS9jRB
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0orghw0BI
不對不對、現在可不是做那種事的時候。不要再想些不正經的事了。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsE9vTNjbyH
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYb1FynFtt
「稍微……稍微彎起來一點。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd09UtRvNqr
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUXalMjoJi
「這樣？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKscrxXuEL
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55Pj9o3JZJ
為了不讓自己再胡思亂想，紫藤支吾地說。一會才終於定下心來把貼布貼上了膝蓋的傷口。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoyj1hv2QJ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmqisQp0Kh
「……嗯！這樣就可以了吧！」杜若點點頭，滿意地打量著自己手上腳上的貼布。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnatmOCBglb
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7mWK5tr9J
於是紫藤收起醫療用品，起身將箱子放回原位。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdI0jsPNiu
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSo0HNNEh1
「對了，剛才紫藤提到的事件……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XjMUGssJF
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBZkQNVj9y
就在要踏出房門的時候，杜若忽然想到了什麼似地開了口。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bV8LxRpba
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iRkREabSP
「事件、是倒塌事件嗎？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jDyjHAMHg
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoQDErjX7G
「唔、嗯……」杜若好像沒聽清楚似地，只把頭點到了一半，便默默地垂下眼簾。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDc5Xljutw7
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gD4Vss3ZD
「怎麼了嗎？」看見杜若的模樣，令紫藤擔心地走了回去。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxP9J4e9o4D
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdPehNtp9W
但杜若沒有做出回應，只是像在思考般地沉默了一會後，才撓撓頭髮抬起了頭來。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklAhEccECc
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUeAcKYp8y
「沒有……沒事的喔！」杜若再次露出一如往常的笑容：「再不睡覺的話明天又要遲到了！還是趕快把東西放回去，然後好好洗澡睡覺吧！」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fdolQPXlO
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YoLeasB5B
紫藤雖然感到疑惑，卻還是沒有多問地走出了房間。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxG9r0m1Xg
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1k37jMtHv
回來後、在淋浴間前，兩人看著彼此身上的一塊塊包紮，忽然察覺到了什麼而尷尬地笑了。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqm8qPIxOcW
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SfghWknX2
「我們……好像弄錯順序了耶。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyZ2AnlKWe
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgEUVKr1Jr
「……只能用擦的了吧。」紫藤望向手上一大片的暗紅紗布，洩出了一聲嘆息。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AJdMYeEhG
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTk07BjbYw0
雖然天氣還很炎熱，用擦澡倒也不會著涼，但紫藤現在只有一隻手，想要擦去全身的溼黏感實在是難如登天。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS19TLNVI7s
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwmXNA0wFN
杜若也察覺到紫藤有苦難言的模樣，於是悄悄地湊到了紫藤的一旁。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJoJCHVzcI
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQl1KTEFMd
「紫藤需要我幫忙嗎？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8TCY2UkZU
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG68xGIGedG
起先紫藤還沒聽懂杜若的意思，但看著杜若站到了自己和淋浴間之間，紫藤才瞬間紅了臉頰。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGOW2mcoz1
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVMdCNNBRL
「我、我自己來就可以了……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVZKLhMFbe
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjw1HtQuqVh
在外頭、紫藤光是露出手臂以外的皮膚都會感到有些憋扭了，更何況是和人坦誠相待，即使是杜若——不、正因為是杜若，紫藤才更在意這點。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIG1DMs5ufu
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dczsb8Tdz
終於，在簡單擦去一身的灰塵與汗濕後，兩人才可以好好地關上燈休息。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Zdv3jIyoj
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0NyKTYIs4
房間沉入一片黑暗。而在這片熟悉的黑暗當中，卻多了道不同的吐息。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lTHT8Sxo6
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8J4IVsGte
明明昨天還沒有這麼明顯地感覺到杜若的存在，現在紫藤卻能夠清楚地感覺到對方的呼吸拂過臉頰。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKvJPZEjpW
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHISw43VuM
因為說好了，所以剛才也讓杜若用了跟自己一樣的沐浴乳。和草草擦乾污痕的紫藤不同，剛沖過澡的杜若身上香得不可思議。那宛如水果混合了奶油的甜香挾帶著專屬於杜若的微暖體溫，光聞著就令紫藤的胸口發癢。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGRbaafCGb

明明是一樣的東西，為什麼用在杜若的身上味道就是完全不同呢？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RvkZGC90U
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRumpvmgKn
「……紫藤。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4I0ZwALvK
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWimX3Tafvf
「怎麼了？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ58cFABOwv
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQyKgfCjXZ
就在紫藤兀自思考時，杜若用著像是隨時會消失在黑暗中的細小聲音、輕聲地喚了紫藤。而在紫藤回問後，杜若沒有馬上回答，只是輕揪住紫藤的衣領，向前挪動身子。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUFdMEahcv
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7W8XlGYHy
「紫藤說、會一直在我身邊……我可以相信紫藤吧？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6F4WO7driZ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJYb258MEv
那是躲在櫃子裡頭時紫藤為了安撫恐慌的杜若，而下意識脫口而出的承諾。也許是四周的黑暗、讓杜若又想起了那時的感覺吧。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTutags6noo
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRHOrXJZ5w
紫藤伸出手輕蓋在了杜若的後腦，卻沒有辦法就這麼點頭。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2f5I6sruY3
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNUJ4pQJv2
就連明天，紫藤都不知道自己是不是還能夠像現在躺在這張床上了。那又何況是更遙遠的以後呢？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCaT6zlOMo
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqvfN40Wyu
這世上難以實現的事情多如繁星，即使是伸手能夠觸及的光芒，也不乏混濁的惡火，而自己選擇的前路更是如此。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpiFmuBnak
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQPA7V0Kyb
既然難以實現，那就不該給予承諾。面對再也單純不過的杜若，這樣的輕浮是種殘酷。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQedKE0dsf
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcoula0d4d
可是要是因此就什麼也不能夠承諾、什麼也不能夠相信，不也是另一種殘酷嗎？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAegr1k02sQ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefHGaAZXfo
確實，紫藤不能夠保證前路的光明不是槍口的閃焰，也不能夠成為驅趕黑暗的陽光。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ptUkPlr7Y
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VglyTzSEi
不過紫藤現在就在這裡。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOtcigJXws
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIcKCpX2u8
無論腳下的是光明還是黑暗，只要紫藤還能夠伸出手，就不會讓杜若握起的手中僅有一撮虛幻。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJreE7O43W
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxYqtj8NGa
於是、紫藤探出指頭，用指腹輕貼上了杜若的臉頰。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X4LwvA7In
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KtBwQ8Bjr
「……我會試著做到的。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLdQ7UGkcr
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHe2PrmzoQ
「什麼嘛……」聽見這不乾脆的回答，杜若便沒輒地笑了。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzVvKhDfEI
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVq6fqT6fe
「不過……我相信紫藤喔。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSiDGf3WQ7
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMfN55G6ql
不給紫藤辯解的餘地。說完，杜若就這麼微笑著闔上眼，沉沉地往夢鄉走去。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckHW6dhHtn
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9Y5YZpwC5
窗外打進的微光逐漸照亮紫藤的視野，杜若雪白的髮絲在輪廓的邊緣透著薄光，就宛如隨風飄逸的紗絹一樣。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEYo07H2Wv
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dGptJtFi0
從呼吸聲聽來，杜若大概是在睡著時就會蜷起身子的類型——就連這點也跟貓很像啊，紫藤不禁調侃地想。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh0lUzwvZU
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSteyGpWFJ
疼痛令紫藤沒辦法把杜若給攬進懷中，但紫藤卻仍湊近了身子，把那道溫熱的呼吸給小心地挨近胸口。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxxgeaoI3g
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhW9gOk0RZE
而杜若只是既像在回應、又像在撒嬌般地發出一聲夢囈，把身子更加地縮了進去。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gDEtykxzS
