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？」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8IMyvbVGe
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEGmrxMGG1
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCBQE07wyn

609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xsTLwmjl2
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGsYSXMXdT

609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxuzTMvIXf
修慢慢拿出一把左輪手槍，慢慢把它放在檯桌上，慢慢解釋。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeoPm2p23G
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3p0TVCvo4
「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。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXAW0XWe9v

「你要跟我玩嗎？裝一發……輪流射自己。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpg7mjIaz7B

609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1e7gVGP5q6

「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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZn7GxSDXCZ
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZ7e5yPH7r
「懺悔自己這麼囂張，汙辱男子漢的神聖對決。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfhR0pxb7v

609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUmRkzXb43
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkk1lhzi3D

「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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYWoouuEiN
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgn0kiR5DtJ

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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunZuEg08T6

為了幫商會購地來到此處，他們內心卻各有盤算。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEensqib1J
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOSLkPWBxk
「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。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSPiBFL3J3
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEosDKisFXv
「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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObBLWwmMdI
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIMyDEpxzK
「放心……」狼刃小聲呢喃，拉低兜帽消失於夜色之中，「我都聽得見。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHNSDurRmx

城鎮另一邊，酒館內正瀰漫著刺鼻煙硝。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmu4N7FyNU
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9K0UphrD2
「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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgrxO9eE2M
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmf3NDRsef
「兄弟！再來一局吧？我賭上所有財產……但是這次……」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6lfkWb8m2
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDScvqKaP1J
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSHgnPOv1P
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrF0MEzBZV1
「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』。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkbd8fyHE9
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOT8uDbMAAo
「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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3YH63L1oD
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OiDnZYaT7

609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfecCYj7m4K
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUpbQQH7pi
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpykp7lc2Yg
「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……」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0JoWJaefM
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmA1Mp8rrq
瑪格麗特下意識地瞄向人群中的約翰，他也不知所以。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpwJiVHpnO
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3H9Y0mvQi
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1tTUYr0dC
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmHsyYIx5z
「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？」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMZSup3M18
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtl3j3TazAM
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0U2kLc661Q
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWxrfho2Ug
「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。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aMKwb2Lrm
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9D0NopIHy
「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。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WkAVeKiO6
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6V5iP4IfI
「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。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlk2X7cU4ch
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAi9L3HcQ8
「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？」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF3vYq2IL6
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2cvVQZ40c
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？609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVxL6eBHu3
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46HtqE3Tjg
「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。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EOyA3baCG
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUc8MQZxEd
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？」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BXnaUzhbR
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKp54TClIu4

「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？」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48H6pMpbaD
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrxnFMrkAQ
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFR4UAl4WIG
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6p6KvrZTfM

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……」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqM5Qz9YsXb
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJCwpiRvdB
「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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyPn99RgUZ

609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFqYOfu5xe

609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiLzCNWuOt
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVULeru28Up
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWb0peaXxA

「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。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bXNp1rLaJ
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1xccTL6eS
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMO4nfZShv
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXyCNNp2ML
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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJcHBmNJH4

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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMWiiELDco

「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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCKwdM0g9u

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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSXXOQuNd8

「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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIVZaQnKFJ

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。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRlD1N9Iuq

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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXWOGRGoEm

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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyDJE4Xq3u

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。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvW8LK2nBQ
609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0YJXL5Ncc
「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。」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfC1vzetRpy

瑪格麗特不敢直視小幫手，怕想起年紀跟他相近的孩兒。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHDL8cymqV

「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……」609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtu8BnIOEne

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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RcX13AbZW

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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqs2KZSbog

善良、天真，除了稱讚之外竟然還有貶義？609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsdCj0XXam

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。609Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dZOlLGUPn
