咚！聲，清脆、空洞的水滴聲回盪在我的骨髓間，激起陣陣刺麻漣漪，讓我的意識形同灼日下遠方的海市蜃樓，飄渺虛無。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi89m4EebZO
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBPNpNCTrn
　　直到它嘴鼻透出的血腥臭味薰醒我，激起我的危機感。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuljisxH5hz
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobYucFYmmu
　　急忙睜眼，僅見一團毛茸茸的黑影掠奪走我所有視界。而那似劍利牙已然架上我纖細、發毛的脖子。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ie9eeXOfL
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtAYmVrupI
　　幾近本能般地，我隨手抓起任何能夠攻擊的東西，不管三七二十一，直往它襯著夜月的紅色大眼刺去。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI07dcM1Gi1
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKPjKXpy9j
　　頓時，濃稠液體四濺，染滿我上半身。溫暖到發燙的液體如件毛衣，套在我因驚嚇而失溫的身軀上。但鏽鐵的臭味實在教人難以忍受。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOwTBgUsLW

　　吼喔喔喔－－！39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5MzIaZyJ0
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCbGJFl6o5
　　緊抓黑影仰天長嘯的空隙，我強忍身體發出的刺痛警訊，起身繞過充滿敵意的龐然大物，逃離死亡圍起的角落。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5bJfKl0Zh
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aw8E0CiwT
　　搖搖頭，平緩喘氣，被突如其來攻擊所分離的迷濛意識逐漸回到腦袋，我也漸漸看清這凶猛的襲擊者是誰。那是深山的霸者，森林的猛獸－－飛雪熊。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmwnjBfsed
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95W9PEOaY7
　　寒月越過後方鐘塔，悄悄灑下慘白銀光，連同冬風一起掀開飛雪熊的漆黑容貌。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObRMiQbYPX
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHVg3LgHIW
　　它的軀體好比百年榕樹粗壯，直立時少說有二尺半。最讓人寒顫直竄腦後的是，它背後兩塊高聳似鋼鐵建起的壯碩背肌，沒有任何東西能夠經得起它奮力一擊。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaiI0VTjQz
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9q5B2uAPP9
　　發散炙熱蒸氣的滴滴鮮血流入飛雪熊因痛張大的血盆大口，裡頭尖牙像謹守秩序的士兵整齊排列，各個精壯銳利，誰都不會想碰上它們。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtxyi8RbGC
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsW93EMxLTn

　　在此同時，右前方遠處傳出無數蒼促人聲，由遠而近，直向此處聚集，並以葛葉姐尖銳的叫聲為嚮導。是葛葉姐找來的救援。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgJLnzxDV1
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeBOsQWbaX
　　然而，這卻令我更加提心吊膽。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeLPJmu6ia
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzrOfhi7L0
　　我怕這隻受傷的猛獸會因瞎掉單眼而採取報復行動，奮力攻擊趕來瞭解發生何事的無辜群眾。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJCQOHBwEV
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jISBZqW3m
　　帕布魯村的大家雖曾歷經十年前色雷斯公國所引發的生死關頭，但他們依舊只是無力的農民。別說拿劍，他們連人都沒揍過。他們行使暴力的唯一時機，就只有在牧羊犬沒有乖乖將牛羊趕進農舍時，會敲牧羊犬的頭以示懲戒。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXURo9LIecc

　　這樣不行！39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULQU9oktNz

39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lrC8kiFBw
　　這想法剛閃過腦海，仍未促成行動前，有個拿著火把的嬌小身影突兀地冒現在飛雪熊側邊。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCegzWXLWE

39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3tiYGEIIG
　　還未能來得及阻止，火把熱光映照的廣闊臂膀，快速飛轉，壯臂挾著利爪直往纖弱嬌小的路克襲去。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO5vA6jfV3
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0J1dUPzjtJ
　　悶響一聲，路克重重摔在我身後。吹起一陣微風，滿是血腥。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnAG9Kmweu
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsz78ziN4jQ
　　「路克！」我轉身跑向路克身邊。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QQwQWvAwd
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgA6g929qC
　　翻過他的無力身軀，那攤軟的手臂讓我幾乎快抑制不住心中炸開的悲憤。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhT4Jhff5iK
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznY4uaSFi6
　　就在這時，眼下一個異狀讓我彷彿被惡魔的低語操控般，忽視身後危險，不自禁地輕輕撥開路克臉頰兩旁已快脫落的紗布。想要確認這兩塊始終緊貼在他臉龐的紗布下，究竟深藏著什麼秘密。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDhfGZn5NK
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sWlCT7tbX
　　靛藍月光下，白皙皮膚逐漸浮現的是，一條條黑線彎曲、構成的尖齒輪。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6a19u8KNG
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcFQSaFnbf
　　怎麼會，竟然是尖齒輪型的刺青！39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZGmXxnOQe

　　該來的還是來了。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BlJMVB6Qf
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWkr3k6OlK
　　我咬牙，硬吞下心頭冒現的重重疑惑。抱緊陷入深度昏迷的路克，一個前滾，勉強避開疾速落下的利爪，地面因而被挖出五道傷痕；抱人躲開攻擊，僅右小腿被劃開一道不深的爪痕，已算是不幸中的大幸。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJiLcgtKCN
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAkCkopZCB
　　見前面鐘塔小屋窗戶開著，我便把暈眩的路克丟入房內，轉身、抽劍，迎戰飛雪熊。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTz5fkYGlx
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKGO72o6aF
　　為了防備不時之需，我總會將父親遺留的長劍佩戴在腰後。今天我可要好好感謝自己一直有保持這個好習慣。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2WRg5JWim
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxWCvWHgCo
　　不知何種原因，飛雪熊看到出鞘的長劍，鼻頭隆高皺起更多山巒，層層疊疊直往頭頂爬去，連短小的耳朵也如狂風侵襲般斜後拉直。飛雪熊瞪大僅剩的單眼，咧嘴顯露滿滿白刃牙齒，身上毛皮恍若怒火燃燒，左右搖擺，怒不可竭。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRfBZa2qvh
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlylvgxhUgZ
　　但那映照月光的血淚，卻勾起人們的悲憐，忘去它身上迸發的怒氣。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAVc5UA1HR
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWWjyUNfZL
　　「在那裡，鐘塔底下有人正在打架！」趕來的某位村民喊著。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDz6y3DIza
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEj1QLnL0j

　　果然，他們沒有一個人帶上武器。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrxE7xmMDn

39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGXxeMbTWl
　　它見我有所動作，便也拉高右手臂往我撲打而來。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoL4i8di9w
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqHQ8xN6O3
　　此刻已屏息的我，簡直能夠一一清點耳裡迴盪的心跳聲，看透飛雪熊一根根飛舞的細毛，直擊來的飛爪自然不必多說。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3edX0ag4gK
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3fa8dx9eE
　　造成這種情狀的原因不在於我的視力有多異於常人，而是因為，這一切都照我的預期發展。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVqiaOUKv8
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0nxHn9fTu
　　腳尖踏上泥土，我旋即使出猛力，抓緊飛雪熊攻擊空隙，直取它胸口，平斬。鮮紅頓時噴出。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReVJztHd5X
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFrgFykFuV
　　爾後我順著奮力斬出的劍勢俐落轉身，再補上一腳在飛雪熊印有清晰Ｘ字型的肚子上，藉此往前方飛躍，越過它壯碩的右臂，二度拉大39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErgjLrfncl
　　與飛雪熊的距離。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JPHfijCA0
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCtut0SNNL
　　動物終究還是動物。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsGbgJMfKk
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UGxtkcJf8
　　這一念頭才浮高，飛雪熊立刻展現出動物比人還要強悍的體能。它不顧胸口砍深的劍傷，壓低身軀，引爆四肢的火藥，活像攻城槌般向39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPSdWDRjEi
　　仍未重整架勢的我直襲。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcyRlrbHN1
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtTAs411KM
　　不妙！39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozZQ6bll5s
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoOHaKm6fu
　　再一次側翻，我驚險避過衝撞。這次又被撞到可不是暈個幾十秒這麼簡單。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcSnpTRZUY
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVvCfxnN4H
　　沒想到飛雪熊頭也不回地，直直衝進鐘塔的底部，劇烈撞擊力道折斷鐘塔三支支柱，鐘塔應聲崩塌，木塊四散。而後銅鐘－－告死天使39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8uBnkLZfR
　　－－沉厚鐘聲響徹雲端。於此期間，我是連滾帶爬，急忙把還置身鐘塔下小屋的路克抱出，然後才躲得遠遠的，靜靜目送鐘塔的倒塌。可沒有見死不救。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruDV4BUxB1
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd5PY9bbSa
　　待鐘塔崩塌激起的塵埃逐漸落地，我終於能夠放下緊繃的心情；闖入村莊的飛雪熊，已經永遠沉睡在那堆木片廢墟下了。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZC9rlSJjt
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19DW4WAklf
　　此刻，右小腿的疼痛重新提醒我它的存在。好痛。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9M07GotVKv

39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Cs5o328ZM

　　「除了右小腿，還有那個地方會痛嗎？」替我進行包紥的咵特，在撕開繃帶尾端時如此問道。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PSPlSbRsR
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCGAaCePUa
　　「我先不提，傷比我重的路克他有沒有事？」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIBtzVPU6r
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKRQnLLuJJ
　　挑高眉毛，咵特似乎對我的疑問感到相當詫異。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEDd4ahLCH
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatm8nqP3qb
　　「別擔心，妳看那小子雖然個頭小，但骨頭可比別人硬朗，不過是被飛雪熊一掌打飛，最多暈個幾天，過陣子就沒事了。放心、放心。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIO0Zmtd8YD
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1t2vpRPH0N
　　咵特一派輕鬆的語氣，根本看不出來他是帕布魯村唯一的醫生，該有的悲憫是沉到酒甕去了嗎。不過，回想以往路克在挨了我的拳擊或是踢擊後，還能生龍活虎的爬上爬下，咵特會這麼說也不無道理。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vmRxEar79
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPO0H64PbRW
　　現在，路克既然沒事，那意味著我必須把早先的發現講出來才行－－路克臉頰上，刺有代表色雷斯公國的尖齒輪型刺青。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1rjxF5NJ0
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtQuRS9mE7
　　先前我對路克某些怪異舉止就抱持某種程度的戒心。撇開他老愛三天兩頭就跑來對我示愛，又有被虐狂癖好外，他最為怪異的一點在於，每天深夜一到他便會到村外郊區遊盪，並且唸唸有詞跟自己展開對話。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XQGU3lGm9
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2THjeuDLO
　　說不定，他夜晚的行動是在跟潛伏的軍隊通風報信。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusCa6vDxgM
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlGcuM8GUh
　　「哎呀呀。」工匠哈特走出人群，困擾的搔動頭上雜髮，紅通通的酒意還留在兩頰，「沒想到會壞得這麼徹底。連想修補的機會都沒有。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWv8ZwWOG3w
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9am85MT5Hz
　　「抱歉。」我說著，「不光害鐘塔塌毀，還讓告死天使也摔壞了。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUKCgfo9JF
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlhfCQFMhv
　　「不，我說的是鐘塔。那些木材已經摔得四分五裂，只能當材燒，這是它們最後能做的事了。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJrlIGLRfJ

39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLnHgESvTe
　　聽哈特說話總讓人感到疲憊，縱然因粗重工作而練出滿身肌肉，可是他說話起來卻是相當快速又饒舌。往往只要一個閃神，你就會跟不上他的步調。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcK15HO5hM
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwcn5mpt18
　　「到是冬季應該在深山覓食的飛雪熊，為什麼會突然下山攻擊村莊？」結束包紥，咵特收好醫療箱站起時，提起這點疑問。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgQTc0XA6I
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtTY1sJxA4
　　「嗯？熊在冬季不都該冬眠的嗎？」我反問。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLlzKQinR0
同時身兼畜牧、獸醫與醫生等三職的咵特回道：39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYyccTFb4K
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyM6HmgpI0
　　「如果是一般的熊，確實早在冬眠了。但是，飛雪熊比較特別，牠們在冬季會一面狩獵食物，一面在巢穴附近的樹上留下咬痕代表自己的地盤，並在找到未來的另一伴後才會進入冬眠。等春季一到，吃飽睡足的飛雪熊會直接跟睡在同個巢穴的另一伴交配。這段期間，牠們都會在深山裡度過。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAAa6dNYS9
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Vmy9F6zTL
　　聽咵特詳細的生態解說，我不禁發出讚嘆。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyaoAYa7mt

　　「喔－－」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtm0btrCgbG

39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMBnOrMsQF
　　被咵特這麼一誇，我的臉上立刻燒起火紅。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlzNZT9EhC
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGMkFzrqnS
　　「沒、沒什麼啦。就只是一隻熊而已嘛。」轉著頭髮，我答道。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiQ5lwkdr6
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmbbFiwBS5
　　「可是反過來想想。」不識相的哈特在這時偏偏硬要多嘴，「一位能打贏熊的女士，在騎士試選會敗卻給騎士團裡排行最差的人。薇亞莉，妳到底是弱，還是強呢？這就好像天空傳來轟轟雷聲，以為快要下起暴雨，最後掉下來的卻是一坨鳥糞……咚嘻嘻！」哈特說完還自個兒傻笑，相當滿意自己的譬喻。這連帶四周的人牆也發出陣陣笑聲。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcvuDWhExu
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaHCcXv4Ji
　　「我是鳥糞嗎？」噘嘴，很是不滿的我直瞪向哈特。心裡早先的歡欣已被吹熄到只剩羞却。葛葉姐在這時悄然走到我身邊，輕輕磨蹭著，像在安慰我。將她抱在懷中，我逗弄她的下巴。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41EYnd8DAk
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0y27JgZOEX
　　就只有葛葉姐懂得我。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXo0DpK7Xf

　　「我又不是小孩子了，不要這樣啦！」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV1UeCi88c
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalBVeUbOnp
　　渾身肌肉的哈特直抓我腰際，輕而易舉地將我抬高，讓我在地面順利站直。但，這右小腿的傷實在沒有嚴重到需要別人出手攙扶。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE5S6Mp7EC
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSdf8gEzVe
　　「謝、謝謝……。」我支支唔唔說著。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXxALDKU2z
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodWCywVUf8
　　「不用謝啦。回家後，記得早點休息，這才是對我的真正謝禮啦。」說完，哈特大聲拍手，提高音量，「薇亞莉沒事，各位也回去休息吧。這片廢墟等到明天清晨再處理。還有，該去站哨的人千萬別忘記自己的職責。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXYkaHJPPJ
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1O0SMIUSN
　　站哨？這詞點醒我。差點遺忘那件關乎村子安危的事沒說。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZKozD3ENj
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCb1QwwH41s
　　「各位等等。」我出聲阻止眾人回家的步伐。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4sDjZeucu
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejnaPES1fc
　　「怎麼了嗎？」離我最近的咵特問。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq547wTa06
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTL4VWIVQf
　　看了看咵特，我環視過人群，抿嘴開口：39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NtfGlTkca
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51CgY0MP6L
　　「我在路克的臉頰上，發現了代表色雷斯公國的尖齒輪型剌青。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQNSnVQSpU
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZ2XXV6YaP
　　眾人頓時止息，沒有半點驚呼。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdANfzl1AGE

　　間隔一段沉默，倪達抓著下巴雜亂成顆大毛球的鬍鬚，步出人牆，像是神話故事中的神聖賢者，不過他身上仍舊滿身酒臭味就是了。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZo5wAaQDD
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7lRvAsclB
　　「薇亞莉小妞說的一向是事實，誰把還在昏迷的路克抱過來。我們來一窺究竟，要是有敵人滲透進村子，這絕對不會是件好事。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdW2CnDkjsH
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOQ5YM90Lf
　　「可是……」哈特欲言又止，「隨便搬動重傷患也不是件好事。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcD4awj6Me
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUYdOv4fLN
　　「沒關係，去吧。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3CtmymWLc
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxr79JbQgmi
　　哈特點點頭，向咵特問了目前路克的位置後，便去把路克抱過來。這時他慘澹無血色的臉龐上，原已脫落的紗布又緊貼回去了。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmRc379Au4
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRgGiEYukd
　　誰替他貼回去的？39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iXhsKNvDM

　　「那麼，我要撕開囉。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJ55Co502P
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmRNE4B5Ld
　　挾住紗布一角，蹲在路克一旁的我回望身後，差點沒被嚇死。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08GOUcjsHc
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJV7pY1Wn9t
　　村民一個接過一個將頭緊臨在一塊，畫出一圈疊一圈圓型鱗片狀，僅留正中央讓月亮將光打入其中。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqE4DLrWjI
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mcAWNDOae
　　給無數對白眼直瞪，我掛著僵硬笑容，慢慢回過頭，重新直視路克。緊張氣息毫不客氣地直往我背上壓，連我也跟著心跳加速。噗咚！噗咚！39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwLmGCiH43
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWAgJFNbyM
　　吸口氣，我快速撕下紗布，深藏其中的秘密瞬間揭曉。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQV46aIq92M
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UmhCuDqxe
　　咦？39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKNNkTQ1d5
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUL4WeQWQn
　　路克臉上寫的幾個大字立即掉落我的眼簾：「我愛薇亞莉。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTp84SLznBC
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReiBdq7jfe
　　怎麼可能？39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpRuiRxF0E
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YV2NzKK8A
　　再撕開另一側旁的紗布，同樣寫著：「薇亞莉我的最愛。」39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7QrXcNEFE
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuM47rSIN38
　　此結果當場引來一場哄堂大笑，原先圍成圈圈的人群一個接一個，紛紛笑倒在地上，像朵花綻放似地。對此，我用以拍響一個巴掌的力道，將路克臉上始終貼住的紗布歸位。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGEUHy5lnu
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7TnxSi0ac
　　「等等！剛剛分明不是這個樣子的！」站起身，我燙紅著臉，努力為自己辯駁。39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd14k17ADDw
39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL7iMDfPUh
