『昨日晚間十點，中央發展區的波特地鐵站發生大規模的恐怖攻擊事件。據了解主導者為隸屬於工人黨的武裝激進組織。恐怖分子的武裝程度非常驚人，幾乎與前往壓制的城鎮應變部隊相抗衡。國家軍隊已經迅速投入戰場。昨天晚上雙方原本保持僵持狀態，以零星開火互相威嚇。今天凌晨兩點，特種部隊發起突擊，救出二十名人質之後，雙方展開激烈交火，目前還沒有更進一步的戰況傳出。啊！稍等，本社前線記者剛才已經被允許進入禁區採訪，讓我們把鏡頭交給現場的桑妮小姐。』506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhISyGqCOcO

『好的各位觀眾，我現在身後就是事發地點波特車站，可以看到地面的設施結構已經被摧毀的不成模樣，現場可說是一片狼藉。自從「黑色聖夜」之後還沒有發生過如此大規模的人為災害。經過四個小時艱苦的攻堅行動，恐怖分子已經撤退到最底層的第五月台，炸毀通道死守不肯投降。各位觀眾可以看到我身後這兩台排除障礙用的重裝自律戰車，接下來軍隊將以無人機強行突破被炸毀的缺口，來進行最後一次攻堅……』506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKNH1zadPA

收音機的廣播新聞硬生生被切斷，房間內突然陷入一片死寂。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8J9kGxIh6i
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNFvFyVPXk
坐在沙發上的倫斯怔了怔，仰頭轉過身來，卻看到門口站著一名氣急敗壞的男子，一手按著收音機，喘著息非常狼狽的模樣。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeknzF0LYhH

「喔──旭夜老弟你怎麼還在啊？這裡是戰區耶！」倫斯嚇了一跳。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIl6I6mjRg

名為旭夜的男性，留著長髮，面頰上還有鬍渣，再加上厚重的眼鏡，整體給人一種邋遢的感覺。他穿著簡便的襯衫搭西裝褲，乍看之下就是個普通的公司職員，而且是那種年過五十成就還停留在組長，人生停滯中的大叔。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04cl8CsPI9

倫斯懶洋洋地躺回沙發上。他手邊正進行著清潔手槍的作業。茶几上擺著酒杯和豎立的兩排子彈。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cpvC9Xyd3
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPkixPRGXW
他是個非常魁武的男性，一頭剃短的灰髮雖然略顯老態，但渾身糾結的筋肉和皮膚上的各種傷痕，用無聲的語言散發出殺氣。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgeFNTNAAb
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36LEX0yJhd
他用看慣了的無奈眼神望向旭夜，聳了聳肩：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1iimexg5G
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAcJjbEYM9
「不如說，你該不會以為『恐怖攻擊』是事後能夠靠交保解決的犯罪吧？不對不對，這觀念不對喔，你找來的那些傢伙啊，每個都是一心希望死在這裡的狂熱分子呢。唉唉，坐下來說話吧，你一路跑過來這裡？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJS5G5p2R2O

旭夜走到窗邊，微微地拉開窗簾縫往外看。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1TcqC3f9Y
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixB2q3ll9S
使用望遠鏡的話，從這裡可以偵查數十個街區外波特車站外的現況，但現在不外乎就是煙霧瀰漫罷了。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwcvEk7gV3

「話說回來政府也真是急性子啊，」倫斯懶懶地說：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56uKQADZMe
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLraD0vpUTw
「新聞上說是僵持，其實應變部隊剛露臉就開火囉，遠在我們動手之前吶。訴求或者條件什麼的根本沒機會開口。虧我們還非常有禮貌地讓外圍的普通市民逃離了呢。我說啊旭夜老弟，」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjii3h3f7V
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeh7jc2crc
他將子彈慢慢填進彈莢，一面像是在閒聊般的開口說：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEu6Bxk1dag
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOugJFVv23
「我受的教育少所以不曉得。但一個國家隨時隨地布滿了重裝警察、每隔幾個街區就安插特勤部隊的盤查關口，這應該不是正常的事情對吧？從一開始，你打算和這種傢伙談條件就是錯得離譜的預想喔。會演變成現在這樣全面殲滅戰也是理所當然吧。不過，我認為工人黨裡那些老傢伙會很感謝你喔。比起憋屈地蹲在貧民窟裡仰望圍牆，你可以把他們送到市中心裡大鬧一翻，這真的是死也值得了吧。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8pV0h9vcI

雖然風涼話很不中聽，但倫斯的黑色幽默卻意外地戳到痛處。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAddSfkkjc

「不過真是驚人啊～沒想到這個國家的自律戰車已經這麼先進了。你也有看到吧？渾身是白色流線型裝甲、四隻腳站得很穩，像陸龜一樣的傢伙。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFzG1ahKvj

「話是沒錯啦，但高盧的還是那些裝履帶的笨重傢伙。火力和反應能力也比不上那些……嗯叫什麼來著？「克圖格雅」？他們派出來的大男孩完全是不同世代的兵器啊。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0oeIsoF4R
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYu3IqPJd7
「一個並不是靠戰爭取勝，而是像盜竊一樣入主政權的政府，短短幾年內就能將軍備擴充到這種程度也相當令人發笑呢。倫斯，就你看來那種東西很難應付嗎？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5B8tbYPRF
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooTnIIYzS4
「難對付？威脅性比一整個陸軍排還大啊！就貧民窟目前的勢力，我想連被輾壓的資格都沒有呢。呵呵，這麼說是不是太過份了一點？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOGOs5x3ma
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcr9xrJ3eY
「非常過分，說得簡直像工人黨的人死得一文不值似的。我還沒有對戰爭冷漠到像你這樣的程度，人死了就是人死了，在我看來還是很嚴重的。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4oSEW1TN6

506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfO5Jp7jv2
「這樣誇獎我也不會感到高興啦。而且，你現在可是在稱讚一個十幾歲的小孩很擅長打仗喔，嗚哇老天這是什麼恐怖的話啊旭夜『老師』。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2qbI8VVqp

「少損我了。」旭夜啐了一口。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8ZERGCpti
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGKCOZkEfU
「唉啊，像這樣讓小孩參加戰爭的例子，歷史上很早就有囉。不曉得你有沒有聽過啊，在能源恐慌時期，有個名詞叫『馴狗人』。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHc6aCqQd0
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCyz5Oefha
「馴狗人？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWQUBqnrtw
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAc1tdd5Ptv
「是啊，負責前線偵查工作和諜報任務。由一名士兵和一條狗當作單位，而且負責的士兵通常都是小孩子喔，方便潛入嘛。」倫斯挑挑眉。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5nVuLuCy3

「就跟『因為大家都在抽菸所以我也要』一樣，根本是國中生程度的煩惱不是嗎？總覺得我被小看了啊！」旭夜氣得將甜酒一飲而盡，瞪視著對方。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2Y3H0EF9r

506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzV5towdeo2
「話說回來，那個目標叫做『赫恩』是嗎？名字挺文雅的嘛。完全不像是什麼引發大災害的恐怖魔女喔。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13Exvgep6u

「局外人會這樣覺得吧。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdkvpQX5cP

旭夜的嗓音一沉，眼神變的黯淡不少。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO54EPHnDa3
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEjRauWxjF
很明顯的，他這位當事人由『赫恩』這個名字所聯想到的事件規模，絕對不是在閒話家常之中可以輕鬆拿出來討論的題材。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5Cr8winph
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrX7ceK7Mxy
那是災難的代名詞。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizaHhglAoA

「你來到這個國家時，是已經事發完後的狀況了吧。所以你根本不清楚黑色聖夜發生時的那種慘狀。我可以打賭，絕對比你見過的任何戰場還要激烈和絕望。就像是將整個都市都裝進箱子，然後灌入毒氣一樣絕望。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsnLeUzLA3

506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0rUq8mMSj
長期蹲在研究所裡造成的蒼白皮膚上，卻覆蓋著一層糾結粗糙的暗褐色皮膚。像燙傷般潰爛、也像結膿般浮腫，醜陋至極的傷瘡疤。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFo9YKg0nh

「所以赫恩才會被那樣監禁起來。雖然沒有直接證據將災害的罪狀算到她身上，但在那種時間與地點上，赫恩就這樣出現，我認為要勉強不去做聯想反而是更困難的。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruzgOA8RmI

整座閻融爐的失控與崩潰地數天後，救援部隊幾近絕望地對閻熔爐廢墟區域進行開挖清理，在層層疊疊的瓦礫堆與燒毀的屍骸之下，這個白色的孩子卻沉睡在那深處——將自己蜷縮在廢墟下的小空間裡，彷彿將整座閻融爐死滅後的遺骸當作自己的縛繭，好自死亡中重生般，詭異而美麗的景象。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFPlKxTAE1

對受害者來說，她的出現絕對是恐怖到無以復加的事情吧。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpcOuLAOZa

「由於能源局在第一時間接手，知道赫恩真實存在的人其實並不多。這件事主要以口耳流傳的形式在貧民窟之中存在著。你想像一下，『造成黑色聖夜的怪物現在還關在能源局的監牢裡』能對群眾造成多大的壓力？但是，」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9riaR7xwws

旭夜面色凝重地分析著：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWm8Q8HunLC
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk1CdXtRwQ
「規模越大的群眾越容易被不理性的傳言煽動。相對的，如果能夠選擇性的還給他們真相，反轉過來的凝聚力應該也會很強烈吧。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQgpk3DGy7

「這就是你奪取赫恩的目的？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZir58crSIw

倫斯其實沒有聽的很專注，他像是嘆息般的回問了一句。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRvLsj96Tb

「要慢慢來，我的設想需要時間來推行。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLkuSVGq2Y
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw28dQSfQGS
「這就是癥結點啦。工人黨那些氣急敗壞地想開槍的狂熱分子都快把板凳坐爛了，他們可不會給你時間慢慢把工人黨和戰後第一代年輕人的民心聚集起來啊。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrfyHZ1jZK

不過此刻，散亂分布的彈孔已經將靶面扯爛，快要看不出原本的樣貌了。都模糊成這副德性，就算繼續射擊也沒辦法有效判斷彈著點。但譚雅還是持續將整個彈夾打空，隨著暴鳴的槍響與彈殼彈跳落地的敲擊聲，人形靶變成了不成原型的破碎物體。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKa8VxmjC97
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAPOVxhQAH
直到手槍的滑套已經向後卡住，露出空蕩的槍膛，繼續按板機也沒有反應時，譚雅才彷彿清醒一般睜大眼睛，積在肺部的濁氣一口氣被吐了出來，火藥的氣息讓他狠狠嗆了口氣。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGs8NY5x8A

她雙肩微微顫抖著，她將頭垂得不能再低，一時間無法對奈歐尖銳的指責多做反應。持續了數十秒的失語，她卻只吐得出這句道歉。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVPo1BG4CU
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGHSMnYDZC
話音裡除了反省外，還帶著一絲迷惘的氛圍。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgXlI1kJOq
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7H3L7xWIOV
「我只是……想讓你知道我並沒有失去狀態，我可以……表現得很好。抱歉，奈歐。請你繼續信任我吧，我會做好的。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgfLtv3Bap
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KO9H5I46U
「嗯，我信任妳，從過去到現在，以後也會繼續信任你。我也並不擔心妳失去狀態，妳屬於不會因為安逸而生疏駑鈍的良材，一直是我很優秀的下官。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEK2O4UyzU
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGwJMnUJTN
他飲乾了寶特瓶裡的水，輕嘆了一口氣又接著說：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu7KPouXMA
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tAVN9c00D
「沒錯，妳還是以往的妳。能源局的直隸部隊也依舊在服役著。我們並沒有真正失去什麼優勢。所以譚雅，保持現在這樣就好。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48PLNloLF6
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55D1C18KPe
「……奈歐。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOzHGl9LrJ
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWp9MDBnHT
「放心吧，我們會把赫恩帶回來的。」奈歐露出了篤定的表情：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BIprqoze7
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YawsZm9vo
「只是時間的問題罷了。這件事情能源局不會善罷干休，再過不久鐵定會由我們主動出擊，到時候的任務可是會辛苦到讓妳叫苦連天吧。既然如此，我們要做的就是等待命令。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8osWyisy2
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJSbmZQXGR
我能體會妳的焦急。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQpLpsUkH2
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQC3AxFs1uG
從妳的眼神就能看出來了，妳急著扳回一城。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZx68M1em2
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uStPzXibB
這種性格就是妳的特質，所以妳才會是優秀的軍人。我從一開始就知道這點，所以我不會懷疑妳的能力。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6RYpjz6fv
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ekIxDdfvY
「但是現在我得幫妳踩剎車。譚雅，不要把自己逼得這麼緊繃，別忘了我們都還與妳同在。像個專業的士兵那樣，冷靜地待機吧。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33MXshOwHx
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCzhpuzsit
「好吧，我明白了。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgecQRQgK4
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoprKjKVy8
譚雅的雙肩垂了下去，呼吸也漸漸平緩下來。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sTOsZcmcE
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCd2gZpsCHj
「謝謝你，我反應過度了。如果今天被擄走的不是赫恩，我也不會……奈歐？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jEI7KLxNC
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNr0b7EzBs
她將視線從地板抬起，看見的卻是奈歐將臉高高仰起，用手掌體著自己的胸口，好像有股氣喘不過來的模樣，表情十分痛苦。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhbtNq9rOb
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67clsaSPjO
「奈歐！你沒事吧？怎麼了！」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIM1ALZe39
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvoEPikpf8
「不……等等……沒事……咳咳咳！」他困難地調整呼吸，卻劇烈地咳嗽起來。雖然嘴上說著沒事，看起來卻有點嚇人。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbruOqri0wf
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIXRZPesyh
「是喝水嗆到了嗎？現在還好嗎？我來幫你拍拍！」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77TlJypVCp
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaSbjGU6Tx
「他沒事的，譚雅准尉。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxNTKWPrDX
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqL9r75l6E
一個低沉的聲音突然插入了現場。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47uQBMz4c4
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5v4tROnkzf
譚雅猛一回頭，看到的卻是夏克斯站在射擊訓練室的門口。他穿著一貫的白色研究服，蒼老的臉和厚重的眼就都毫無變化，只不過此刻，那雙眼睛中的嚴厲氣息似乎更加沉重了。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9q1uJaK0P
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8jgT3CJbl
「我有些事情要跟你的隊長談談，麻煩妳先迴避吧。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZlraDfUyE
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSK40fa6d3
突然間用這麼客氣的語調指示自己，譚雅一瞬間有點反應不過來。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu5lhGGK5H
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQobmlWcOmz
「呃，但是奈歐506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqI2EfKD6r
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqUE0RQgM9
「我說了他會沒事的。感謝妳的協助，現在請妳離開這裡。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CPnQPxDjq
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiWM1P9o52
「這是命令嗎？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkNsJ4Htbc
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zWJYovTqr
「難不成我會找妳閒聊？別得寸進尺，譚雅少尉。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLLKUXzlX7
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKr8ACa4K98
果然還是正常的夏克斯。譚雅莫可奈何地站起身來，到這個地步已經不是能商量的狀況了。雖然心裡依舊非常擔心，她也只能行個禮退到房間外面去。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzwovISjWO
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlqJ9lTAED
待譚雅離開後，夏克斯這才來到奈歐身邊。奈歐雖然還是用右手緊緊扣著自己的胸口，但神色已經鎮定下來。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4j9RyxV7V
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeaOLJsjdY
「發作的間隔又縮短了吧。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs9pFQ4qsl
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwGViD8M6M
「嗯。」奈歐表情沉重地點點頭。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynwNKGi42e
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGNgAcN6M0
「先注射止痛劑吧，正事稍後再談。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1r5K5gkPN
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHksAK71Ai
夏克斯將手上的提箱打開遞給他。奈歐以熟練的動作，替自己注射了一管淡黃色的藥劑。經過了大約三十秒，胸口的灼熱感才逐漸褪去。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZ160WXWo2
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1g6YJiq37m
「現在延伸到哪裡了。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfcQuKp010
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8X1cuu0cH
「並沒有往外擴散，」奈歐掀起衣服，露出鎖骨下方的肌膚，沉褐色佈滿了皺褶和血管的發病區塊：「但是位置感覺更深了。就像隨時被人掐著咽喉。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbDOl3Jjhx
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycttPVGblU
「真是壞消息。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOShWbwtrC
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6wdeY0WYT
夏克斯搖了搖頭，替他將器材收回提箱裡：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbUr9Tzw8v
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeJ6Yl3m7y
「但最近的壞消息實在是太多了，再加上你這件也不怎麼樣。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgYuVUlaRD

「我的命真是被你看輕了啊。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cGVLml4SW

506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobAuWNT6bq
「呵呵，怎麼完全不感到訝異呢。」奈歐沉下眼神說著：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL7EbBj8cl
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxn7ungFkIK
「夏克斯，我的侵蝕症狀……什麼時候才會被身體適應？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5hK71y1hh
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMroloh4QO7
「可能是一年，也可能是十年。怎麼？你感到心急嗎？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp91OEVRdOa
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaH3sgI92V
「我可不想用這種狀態帶軍隊，尤其是像昨天的突發狀況。好在有譚雅和其它副官控制場面。未來要是遇到類似的狀況，我的身體不允許在指揮的過程中突然病發。對了，那個藥劑，劑量就不能再多一點嗎？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcrODoviSJ
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafgQA6nMKJ
「別傻了。就算是我開給你的藥，對你的肉體來說也是外來的異種，光靠自信心可沒辦法戰勝藥物的副作用。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7BlPfGcGw
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XJOiJZ6e8
「……果然沒有那麼好的事情呢。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXpsCRgxoV
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsdcQhiiEu
他重重嘆了一口氣，506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5ZFFtYvc3
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3737AwLbpK
「就好像當年的怨靈還纏附在身邊一樣。這或許就是他們所說的業障吧。哈哈，我已經到會開始思考這些東西的年紀了呢，真是可笑。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGCnjcn80F
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhD93ChIKtD
「抱歉打擾你的感性，不過恐怕你得再次面對那場噩夢了。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytONcHwa4f
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFz4eW0tJVF
夏克斯將一張電子板遞給奈歐。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bMjoKxIu8
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyuyAUMmYh
上頭顯示著包含文字與地圖在內的大量訊息。奈歐先是看了開頭，接著快速地往後翻了幾頁。他的表情變得相當複雜，深深吸了一口氣才開口：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsYdusBZ56
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCSh5Zog4D
「『畢竟是能源局』，五六年前我或許還會說出這種冰冷無情的話，但現在這份指令對我來說，已經沉重到不可思議了。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23C2eUxIfk
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2IIuE5ZfK
「所有的決策都只是排除問題的手段而已，你作為一介軍人可沒有審判它的權力。兩個小時後在Ｂ棟召開作戰會議。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7ol39aHB5
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcdz5jmm2X
「像這樣的作戰計畫，也是經過能源局的議會討論所產生的嗎？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupMIiXtNGn
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekvuRJSVSX
「無庸置疑。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftGoCrrjkP

「看來議會的人全都是像你這樣的個性啊，」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatApA3diJy
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpE2m6tWo6
奈歐悻悻然地將電子板交還給夏克斯，露出非常嫌惡的表情說：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhV7BPRDpMT
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9o3ncCXrJ
「難道不擔心我反抗命令嗎？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTEwCqLtkx
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUGB67YKeP
「你不會的，我們都很清楚。這就是你被選為直隸部隊隊長的原因。奈歐，你是個頭腦清楚的人，就跟議會裡的每一位一樣清楚。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9M36ZGq64Y
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bqtDRlzhS
「繼續跟你說話，原本清楚的腦袋都變成焦黑色了。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLpxhb4K1f
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhIFdc1wYH
奈歐取回掛架上的外套，轉身想離開射擊訓練室。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7qXoJpjJ1
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwhACxdO1X
他正要跨出腳步，夏克斯卻在最後提了一句：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rbZo3xPdP
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrYzMSLxbT
「恐怖攻擊那天，監視系統裡似乎拍到了旭夜的身影。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdaLv7tHFf

「還真是承蒙您看重了。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveWGbwfinq

艾瑪利拿著扳手，無奈地對坐在窗台邊的依奴和赫恩苦苦勸告。不過她本來就不會哄小孩，眼前的兩位也早就不是可以哄的年紀了。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkRZ8ziADy

「來了！」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdyUQEDvUN
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTafLwpVmD
艾瑪利戴上面罩和厚重的手套，接過材料往車床走去。房間裡同時有五六個男人正在忙碌著，各式各樣的機件發出尖銳的噪音。房裡悶熱異常，完全感覺不到冬日應有的寒冷。也難怪依奴與赫恩會逃到窗邊吹風。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpa0Bd2cy4S
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhJneXaNrk
「瑪利啊，旭夜老師還沒回來嗎？」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMJH3IAyKQ

艾瑪利嘆了口氣，脫去沉重的工作服裝，走向窗台坐到依奴與赫恩身邊。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡras8bWC1Ke

「很有活力的街道呢……跟我想像中的不太一樣。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbbo60QCe6
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7NDSA20US
赫恩望著雜亂的市街。這裡是貧民窟尚能住人的幾個街區之一，因為是技師交流之處，被取名為破罐街。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jGaGGEuPX
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxBtP3MQd5
整條街道都響著各種金屬敲擊、削磨、冷卻的聲音，對耳朵造成的負擔非常之大。大嗓門的男人搬運著重物來來往往，小孩也被分配到各種雜物。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuJ5UZVrIw
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xfHELVFnM
偶爾能看到一兩個女人經過，但也都像艾瑪利這樣，是穿著樸素衣服、手指與臉頰抹著機油痕跡的工房技師。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7ef5wMZwh
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIIz08Dqvi
說句實話，與中央區或東區那樣的發展區完全無法相比，破罐街的長度也只有約兩百公尺，以一座都市來說非常窄小。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6rAEvMuAS
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsg9NkEgnE

艾瑪利伸手往旁邊的貨架翻找，從潤滑油瓶、蒐集鐵釘的罐頭、自釀大豆酒和番茄醬瓶後面撈出了一罐零嘴，打開來將餅乾分給赫恩和依奴。不料身後正組裝著機械的男人突然大叫起來：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6Qe5TL8tS

對這些似乎習以為常的依奴，默默接過雜麥餅乾啃了起來。赫恩則是遲疑了片刻，明顯是不太能融入這種氣氛。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfMbTvLz1l

506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirOwYzZIcj
「最近幾年還算樂觀喔。」艾瑪利叼著餅乾回答赫恩的疑問：「但是農作物只能很集中地種小麥和馬鈴薯。真想吃多點蔬菜和水果呢。燃料的話，風力啊沼氣啊水流啊什麼雜七雜八的手段全部用上了，才勉強夠用呢，到晚上這附近很黑的喔，因為要省電嘛。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXulVbK2AB

從黑色聖夜之後的重建整理、之後的救助和醫療等等，要不是旭夜出面指導，恐怕貧民窟會與現在完全不同吧。之所以會叫他老師也是合情合理呢，總覺得他什麼都會，碰到任何狀況先問他就對了。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYKO2e99PO
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MlCKwkLnF
「艾瑪利，似乎很崇拜旭夜呢。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NO11UpcT6
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2XA2jiB8l
「當然囉！我可是旭夜唯一正式的徒弟喔！」艾瑪利挺起胸膛，相當開心地說：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqJplnIHuV

「該怎麼說呢？不愧是設計閻融爐的男人，第一次見面的時候他就給了我很多衝擊呢！他的知識量讓我覺得過去五年的技師經驗跟假的一樣。沒辦法，既然機械技術比不過，只能用床上技術扳回尊嚴了！」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4l2xqtaZQ

「噗嗚！咳咳咳咳！」依奴被吞到一半的水狠狠嗆了一口。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGOFW2nYU2
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FE1cwvYhc
「哈哈哈，開玩笑的啦！依奴也真是的～比起那種宅男，我更想把依奴逮進自己的被窩裡喔～過來讓大姊姊捏捏～」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsG9z4jgCHm

在暫時佔上風的艾瑪利相當積極地朝依奴進攻時，旁邊的技工們喊著「完成囉」一面將架高的工作檯緩緩降了下來。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslj7t3k2p3

安置在台座上的，是一輛重型摩托車。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7leJIuAwL0

從外型來看，是舊時代的產物，包括位於座位前方的油箱，以及充滿個性的車頭燈。唯獨引擎部位被新的甲板蓋起，將複雜的部件保護在下面。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHx6QeGerTb

依奴將一疊紙鈔交給那名男人，並且走向前去檢查車體。車身被清潔得相當乾淨，打磨的細節也沒有漏掉，讓人感受到技師的敬業。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqhZcHEZF3

赫恩也好奇地站在後頭，對摩托車探頭探腦，不過隔著一層甲板，大概也沒辦法看出機械結構的什麼玄機來。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5SGCGEsUo

「這台摩托車用的是石油時代的技術。能夠復活真是太好了。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY4kIwF9sZ

依奴輕聲說著，露出滿意而平靜的表情。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtYtlfVwLB

對機械沒什麼熱情的赫恩，則困惑地歪了歪頭。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbNuIZP4bv

在這之前，她還未曾見過依奴的表情變得如此親切與單純。506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmS5pWXEdWx

一旁的技工用驕傲的表情炫耀著：「要重新打造專屬的零件，可花了我們不少時間啊，有些部件光看設計圖真是看不懂，旭夜老師果然厲害啊。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCp6YqWIJS
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpcEnt9HG5

「好啦～那麼現在，」艾瑪利舒緩了下肩膀，從窗邊站起身來：506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXR9h00wcon
506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4myXVgSXmJ
「時間也差不多了，我要去找高盧的人談談自律戰車的事情。依奴，你如果沒什麼事就載赫恩回基地吧。」506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOec0W6DtS
