「據說，那就是海王星太空站的過去。」演奏停頓。詩人雙腳踢躂，深吸了一口氣。接著，笛音蕭瑟，彷彿能夠用耳朵聽到落日黃沙。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PxOVqTQ5r

酒館又開始喧囂。羅法爾彈指推倒空杯，用酸嘴掩飾內心情緒，「爛故事，哪裡『滿懷希望』啦？」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNJtsojBJX
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0GV4xaXl4
不只他，奧莉薇亞也若有所思地輕按琴鍵；椿則是看著牆壁悵然發呆。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4ByVNh5lo

「希望嗎？」農人約翰喝了一口酒，諷刺地說：「我真希望，那些金子就埋在田裡。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVz9wxk3MZ1
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZEXs6lqHl
「最有價值的東西，常常就在身邊……」修再次把手伸進大衣，墨鏡下的細長雙眼靈機一閃，「賣藝小哥提醒我，想發大財，還是得碰碰運氣呀。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrPLR6agoA
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2oox1brVc
「笑死。」老羅把椅子轉向側邊，對陌生客說道：「錢包車子都沒了，碰什麼運氣？」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDC9QdQ0XM
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQfUoUp9J7
這位自稱警長熟練地用身體擋住右手動作。修從領口掏出的物體才露出一點金屬光澤，羅法爾就已經打開腰間槍套，隨時準備兵戎相見。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3mHIg76rr

比所有人都快了一步，瑪格麗特女士拿著散彈槍，緊緊抵在墨鏡男子的太陽穴上，「不管你想做什麼，最好給我慢慢來……」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYtPWejRuS
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KFLpl6Cal
酒館瞬間靜止。緊張視線就像濃密的彈道，全部指著陌生客。然而，他臉上卻不見一絲慌張。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3zXwBzOZY

「噢……抱歉，我並不是要……誰會在這麼多人的地方搶劫？我是說、我只想用它玩個打賭遊戲，好嗎？」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2kX3h4VKI
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIetycwGtw
修慢慢拿出一把左輪手槍，慢慢把它放在檯桌上，慢慢解釋。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaQl9b1JTd
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHQtzgzTyA
「聽過『俄羅斯輪盤』？俄羅斯是古地球國家，出過很多暴君，也許是其中一位想出這種殘酷遊戲……嗯，總之呢，我想用自己的命，來賭我的幸運……隆重介紹我的幸運之槍⸺『卡蘿．卡蘿』⸺復刻版柯爾特蟒蛇、點357口徑雙動式、六發裝填。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuFKosZkc4
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLtqOaol7Q
「哦，所以？」羅法爾盯著對方，抓起桌上手槍甩出彈倉，確認裡面都是空的，才示意店主放下武器。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡginSc73AU0
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7Bzd7TYuw
「你要跟我玩嗎？裝一發……輪流射自己。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNuc6uFzmS
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxK2ybPMEp
「我的規則，有點不一樣。」修接著掏出一張蕾絲手帕鋪在桌面，再讓五發子彈滾到上頭。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0b0Mvuw1y0
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejcv9U7dMW

修與羅法爾同時起身。口巾男子掀開吧檯門，走向性感女郎和盤臉怪客的圓桌，並用眼神趕人。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuDs2Og925
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ310RKHtb4e
魁梧盔甲拿起鐵箱，帶著馬達驅動音站到牆角。椿則是慵懶地讓出空位，「鴉？真可愛。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNF6CqGg0P9

「我只記得這個字。」將椅子與窗口排成直列，神秘服務生又回到廚房，靜觀兩位主角坐上焦點舞台，還有瘋狂下注的聲浪。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbdBxApx4J

「兄弟，你最好開始懺悔。」老羅用粗操拇指把實彈一發一發推進彈倉、再將轉輪卡進槍身，握穩槍柄指著前方。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡon63gZKR3F
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4Schw4Zvj
「懺悔自己這麼囂張，汙辱男子漢的神聖對決。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdN14UUL8hm

修沒有回嘴，只是微微前傾上身，把額頭靠到冰冷鐵管的末端。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllVPkchuK5
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhy0qJWw2T
此舉成了壓毀耐心的最後一根稻草。羅法爾大力拍轉彈倉，眼觀覘孔，對準不要命的墨鏡眉間。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXB4IEHvqk
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn88HLmv0oX
「第一發。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8Zs0Ipc7X

579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVLwlHuQPE
「哼……」老羅快速檢查子彈數量無誤，再次滾動轉輪，瞄向那張令人不爽的嫩臉。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQyzvRjqdA

再一次，沒有。再一次，也沒有。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbm6jgNUcg
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsn8iYmjtbg
「搞什麼……」再來好幾次，還是沒有。命運的擊錘持續光顧空氣，六分之一機率越乘越多。修聳起肩膀、轉頭跟酒客眨眼致意，對面的鬍渣大叔更是氣喘吁吁。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVHM0teNCC
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rg3wICKUZ
「你作弊！」羅法爾憤怒站起，刻意把子彈調到擊發位置，對空無一人的窗戶開槍。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzLJkGlv9U

火藥炸裂，閃光瞬間點亮了農場。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkoSnEpiWI

深夜班次艙門開啟，老舊的四足搬運機爬出散熱蒸氣。除了它之外，就只有兩個人類旅者⸺銀髮劍士烏霸，還有面具刺客狼刃。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRHnHJGEpF
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHy2xbyy0n
為了幫商會購地來到此處，他們內心卻各有盤算。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirnXNYHEP6
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwJhbZiAkV
「那是白蘭度的車……他應該不會下來才對。」刺客看到一旁壞掉的渦輪禮車，用鐵爪輕抵下唇，「新人，你去找農夫，我有事要辦。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi89iwSz7VH
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbU5wxfP38W
「不怕我跟他們說壞話嗎？」烏霸收好太刀、束緊腰帶，沒有等對方回應，就往遠方唯一亮著的店家走去。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42tY0AfGzw
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQGw15oLeK
「放心……」狼刃小聲呢喃，拉低兜帽消失於夜色之中，「我都聽得見。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PYxANiJUE
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5GoLB9f3j
城鎮另一邊，酒館內正瀰漫著刺鼻煙硝。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXBAbv587P
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NWGjAqLiK
「應該開了……十幾、二十發？」修從震驚呆滯的老羅手中拿回左輪，想跟圍觀者討錢時，突然被大聲喊住。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPgvQjm1Yz
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKmZUzYrHp
「兄弟！再來一局吧？我賭上所有財產……但是這次……」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkT21iRu1tV
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx55jd2fH6r
警長把大衣下擺甩到腰後，從長到不可思議的槍套中拉出一把厚重鐵塊，光放到桌上就花了他好幾秒。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBa6Yhovtz
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXm8b2aEYyv
「隆重介紹⸺訂製槍體、電磁加速膛軌、點五零對物質彈頭九發裝填。我都叫它……『幹你的超級大砲』。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuiL0DQmZL
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7MutYXIL9
「呃、嗯……也是可以。」面對存在感十足的巨型武器，修拿下墨鏡，笑瞇瞇的雙眼自信依舊。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVu2udnXDhE
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzICMf9kI0h

579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9nrCwjjNZ
兩人誰也不讓誰地凝視對方，就快進入重頭戲時，一個不識相的身影突然推開大門，無視這場圓桌對決直接走向吧檯。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC97V3ApdHo
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSo9kBnGbwk
「妳是店主？」明顯來自異鄉的銀髮劍士劈頭就問，「農場負責人在嗎？我代表商會……」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVnP2Jt3hj
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBs1W4mZMEN
瑪格麗特下意識地瞄向人群中的約翰，他也不知所以。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcncMuEJas
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXn8yeEbKz
店內鴉雀無聲，可以清楚聽見一雙殺氣騰騰的馬靴站到不速之客身後。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjNbhB3tQF
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ840PkZBhGP
「今晚真熱鬧啊，老羅我聞到好熟悉的臭味……偉大的札廣，又想佔誰便宜？」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBu3vTxYKxz
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDaKdPmibz
充能線圈在烏霸腦袋後方嗡嗡作響。他能感覺到，不只鬍渣大漢手上那把，還有更多槍口從四面八方對準自己。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQ6BokKAP0
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxTcl4Y6iM
「別衝動……這個距離，我比較快。」劍士閉眼呼氣，控制雙手離開腰間太刀，舉到空中表示配合，「我幫札廣做事沒錯，但他沒來，就照我的方式談。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFNrtFPGt3
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkusJwTmd7
「口氣挺大的……談啥？」老警長把大砲扛上肩膀。看得出他有點慶幸，終於能找到對象耍狠，「給你們的赤藻已經夠便宜了，別想殺價。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsasaPZUhk
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqPTybZg4B
「商會打算買下特里頓的地，用來種樹、造紙，你們可以繼續在這生活。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8UckbJfCT
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4FZJlT9mz
「種樹？」農夫約翰一聽就發現破綻，馬上鑽出人群，「可是，這裡深度不夠，土質也不適合啊？」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHd7ef3p9H
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3SyMdZn5z
疑點重重，他卻不禁想著：要阻止衰退就必須轉型，交給別人來經營，可能對農場比較好？579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOPDV2pP6e
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxME55uJY7
「夠了，小子，答案是『否』！」羅法爾斬釘截鐵地說：「交給那群人不如放火燒掉，這是你們的家，不能被札廣得逞。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vl2PVsug1
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9tN33ajdT
銀髮劍士好像早料到會吃閉門羹，沒有討價還價，還刻意放低聲量，「你認識他，你也不信任他……告訴我，他在想什麼？」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ha2FQN9F1
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndg0rQ06lO
「啥？不會自己問哦？滾回去叫他管好自己的太空站、管好自己的嘴巴，不要再⸺」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHabi9poIW9
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFb5aVpZ3F
「等等、等等！各位……」瑪格麗特女士插入爭端，拿著兩杯赤酒跑出吧檯，「這麼晚了，大家又喝醉，怎麼談事情？對面就是旅店，先睡個覺明天再來，好嗎？年輕人？」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVtvAxzFun
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTadi1eVYq
烏霸看向咄咄逼人的店主，突然被她身後牆上那幅畫框牢牢抓住視線。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsj5AMjOoD
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfIHSGzus1
泛黃相片裡面，左臉大片燒傷、瀏海向後綁起的女孩舉著酒杯面對鏡頭，嘴上掛著無以倫比的豪邁笑容。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ylummx8pu

樓下的異鄉人面露難色，瑪格麗特也看出端倪，「她嗎？對，她以前也是我們常客……總是幫外環著想，願她安息……」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRBIUGXDNd
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8fx3DNRw4
「夠了，我明天再來。」烏霸轉過身，不想表現哀傷。正要離開時，突然被女店主拉住肩膀。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSY0SmUpCS
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFktUtqC68

烏霸離開旅店一樓機台，走上側邊階梯，回味著那杯赤藻酒的酸澀。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwRIKeawek
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWegMJGvZjr
稱不上極品，甚至太過辣口，但確實會讓人念念不忘，就像「過去」一樣。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvC5W6BwRAa

砰。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcubcZzgVv
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcTX848A4J
房門緊閉。椿無法壓抑全身顫抖，朝空氣揮出一陣亂拳，齜牙咧嘴地走下樓梯。同時，修在路邊試著攔住鳥獸散的酒客，想追討賭金卻都被敷衍了事。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2ZtimYoo2
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ExtT5BfhY
「不會吧？這樣我不就虧一顆子彈……嗯？」無意間發現對街旅店的美人，墨鏡男子整了整頭髮，快速轉換心情上前攀談。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCiVkoaDXc

「沒錯，我略懂一些『線路技巧』，在這個水跟空氣都很貴的地方頗具優勢……我想，我們有兩個選擇⸺留著等黑幫入侵，或者，去『借』一台車離開這裡，尋找下一站的人生。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJfsziCATX
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8iEelXqYO
無傷大雅的提案。椿點頭思考不到幾秒，就伸出右手表示成交。互相確認稱呼後，臨時結成的鴛鴦大盜⸺其實是撞與被撞的人⸺結伴離開了商店街。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04mQ7MLgSM
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5PQ3KVl60
半路上，椿在昏暗田野中看到盤臉怪客身影，忍不住揉了揉眼角。她搞不懂，那人為何在半夜揹著鐵箱遊蕩……她連那是不是人都不知道。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01GdRtxmpL

打烊的歡場格外冷清，約翰在屋簷下抱著膝蓋沉思。老羅和瑪格麗特的爭執，他已經不想再聽⸺「堅決反抗」跟「安全為重」，讓這位繼承者內心天人交戰。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKweATBesU

「快滾，臭小子。」笑著目送約翰離開，羅法爾踩熄菸頭、踢進垃圾堆。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWZYszaFzx

凝視高聳黑暗的天井之後，他轉過身對酒館裡面招手，呼叫正在收拾東西的駐唱雙人組。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HqDFWirYm

「有什麼事嗎？」奧莉薇亞和蓋爾走到大叔旁邊，馬上被他抱住肩膀、強行壓低姿勢。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ta00jRNZM

「注意……商會那傢伙應該還沒睡，我想引他出來，然後……我們一起綁架他。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyni321XZB

小妹的驚叫聲傳進店內，專心清理檯桌的瑪格麗特聽了直搖頭，「唉……老傢伙又在打什麼主意，實在沒力氣管了。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrSoDGDuRG

一個晚上，就能讓未來充滿不安。女店主憂心忡忡地走到牆邊，拿下剛才被陌生人注視的相框。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDG5aW4Imz

時光停格，許多居民跟著凱笛希父女一起歡笑，包括瑪格麗特和她的兒子⸺說要加入外環聯盟反抗暴政，參加木星大戰之後，就再也回不來的兒子。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjM8j1qM2C

廚房內，默默洗碗的「鴉」看到老闆娘呆站著，忍不住放下工作，開口問道：「女士，我不懂，何必跟商會低聲下氣？那群勢利眼，根本不在乎妳們。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnp2KvsEt9O
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnGvtlDILl
「對啊……哈哈，你最好早點打包離開，誰知道這裡哪天就變成……戰場了。」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CUORV5iQ5

瑪格麗特不敢直視小幫手，怕想起年紀跟他相近的孩兒。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJyAW8F1qF

「這邊的人啊，一步一腳印慢慢適應、改變環境，辛苦好幾代都撐過來了。幫帝國做事、幫商會做事都可以啊？我……我只想繼續看大家在這喝酒，一起笑、一起吵架，然後繼續活著面對明天……有困難說一聲，大家來想辦法，這樣不就很好嗎？為什麼……為什麼還要去追求更多東西……」579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9DCkXAHLD

女店主的強勢語氣蕩然無存。失憶男子想了想，試著出言安慰。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbqIHYUs6Q

瑪格麗特拿走拖把，鴉只好低下頭回到廚房。剛才，他想說店主善良，卻卡在喉嚨出不來。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDByhlsrtFZ
579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SvcHgZa9O
善良、天真，除了稱讚之外竟然還有貶義？579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxgiWeyiHl

商會這種「上」欺「下」的態度，喚起了迷失在腦海中的情緒。他知道自己不能忍受。藏在臥鋪衣櫥的那套戰鬥服、那把短刀、那把長劍，大概也是為了導正如此不公不義而存在。579Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iCQp1WvZv
