8964 copyright protection316PENANAqaaJrYh2WK 維尼
笠晴指著後面一對夫婦,年輕的太太拿著一把狙擊槍,頭髮是奇妙的銀白,像是破曉時雪地的顏色。瑪莉從沒看過如此特殊的髮色,本來以為是染髮,但她連瞳孔都是奇妙的銀灰調,便信了。8964 copyright protection316PENANAn44Lqa9xyL 維尼

320Please respect copyright.PENANAkflWDzuAJS
8964 copyright protection316PENANAy8lzj3DvB0 維尼
燕子禮貌地微笑,先生則是脫帽致意。原來當瑪莉當晚走出合掌廳、去了芎蕉食堂、爬上吊臂,整個過程都在燕子狙擊鏡的視野裡。8964 copyright protection316PENANAdlSfO8OBQm 維尼

8964 copyright protection316PENANAQGodnKUu5X 維尼
明崗向瑪莉說明了「精算」的原理,並進一步解說精算與反精算的類型,有像是毛帽老頭的身體素質形、有像是明崗能幻化成鴞的變化形、也有像是燕子姊的賦予形,能將意念加附在子彈上,使其具備更具智慧的邏輯與力道。8964 copyright protection316PENANA5oD76QXuN6 維尼
320Please respect copyright.PENANAGGSQejlknD
8964 copyright protection316PENANA5XeZvZaAJk 維尼
笠晴接著說,精算的理論最早就是由島上的一名女科學家提出,受器理論的發揚者,我們稱她為精算之母。8964 copyright protection316PENANAPwVhpU1VnY 維尼
320Please respect copyright.PENANA9AAcvP4kmR
8964 copyright protection316PENANAAzVGruCo8i 維尼

320Please respect copyright.PENANAwwdmTMZf8L
8964 copyright protection316PENANAgwK7Jb1HkO 維尼
笠晴說,其實整個大廈的人都非常期待瑪莉的來臨,但反精算營下達封口指令,原因就是,他們之前也被看似可信任之人潛入,優秀的精算師可以幻化成各式的樣貌,甚至是模仿他人的外型。反抗營曾因此大受打擊。8964 copyright protection316PENANAfWwmBOMR6B 維尼
320Please respect copyright.PENANAzYsuJc0cA2
8964 copyright protection316PENANA0V1FNleXL2 維尼
瑪莉覺得自己的腦袋快炸開了,精算、反精算,怎麼連自己老媽都被扯進來?早知道就乖乖在合掌廳看書,看完就去睡覺,一切都會簡單許多。8964 copyright protection316PENANAdGiMMnhSF6 維尼

瑪莉、明崗、笠晴三人並肩走在巖穴內,偶而滴落的水滴打在後頸,瑪莉都會緊張一下,手腕被綑綁的地方還有些疼。明崗說這是以前的礦道,封礦多年後又被開啟,作為反精算秘會的據點。8964 copyright protection316PENANAC2ILQDWiv2 維尼
320Please respect copyright.PENANAxRUkcQlihV

三人位於一座鴴湖的孤島之上,島不大,站在島中央的柳樹旁就能望見整座島嶼的邊緣。瑪莉覺得這麼小的一座島下面竟有如此深的礦井,實在不可思議。8964 copyright protection316PENANACYK3xvwEP9 維尼
320Please respect copyright.PENANAjI6zzuC4TN
8964 copyright protection316PENANAWK4VxST1sB 維尼
明崗從草叢中拖出一艘小船,沿岸的草堆中幾隻螃蟹隨之逃竄。他們三人划到鴴湖西側的船屋,把船放進室內。8964 copyright protection316PENANArFxHpI9wsC 維尼
320Please respect copyright.PENANA6K6jj7DOVA
8964 copyright protection316PENANAuBz41vmO1c 維尼
瑪莉還沒打算原諒明崗,當他們回到鴴湖大廈草皮時已經天亮,瑪莉僅擁抱了笠晴,無視了明崗的道別。8964 copyright protection316PENANAL6U046XAhy 維尼
320Please respect copyright.PENANAnX5VBA5HPw
8964 copyright protection316PENANAcI2qsnNYLt 維尼

瑪莉睡了好久,她一直睡到聽見「扣、扣、扣」的聲音才迷迷糊糊地醒來。她感覺有人拿著槌子在敲打她的頭,翻了個身,拿出枕頭把頭蓋住。8964 copyright protection316PENANArsTDygDdV8 維尼

笠晴站在門口,手上拿著餐盤,上面盛著沙拉、飲料、以及三顆熱騰騰的饅頭。笠晴又換回平時的純白套裝,人也看起來更開朗了,很難想像這樣一位可愛的少女換上黑色蕾絲後可以改變那麼大。8964 copyright protection316PENANA8s00RRdDUA 維尼

草皮剛割過,淡淡的青草味飄入,一群雀鳥啄食著打起的種子與小蟲。除草機理過的草面像是梳平的頭髮,與外側的野草有不同層次的綠。8964 copyright protection316PENANAx0VzbppGVk 維尼

瑪莉讓熱水從頭頂流下,雙手搭在牆上,低頭看著泥黃色的水流進排水孔,那裡塞滿瑪莉的金色毛髮,落髮量可以推算出瑪莉住在這裡的時間、可以感受出她承受的壓力、也可以看出瑪莉不愛打掃的個性。8964 copyright protection316PENANA2V7mNorkfL 維尼

一小時後瑪莉來到鴴湖大廈的十五樓,這區是家庭房型,許多房門前都擺放著木製的小鞋櫃。鞋櫃都是手工製的,瑪莉感覺從鞋櫃就能看出每一家的個性。有很功能性取向的,基本上就是三塊木板歪歪斜斜地釘在一塊,鞋子隨意擺放;也有精巧雅致的,上面擺了軟墊方便坐下穿鞋,甚至還做了活動木門。320Please respect copyright.PENANAKOpHBctMhc

室內整體算的上整潔,家具與裝飾也大多以米白、灰藍為基調,看上去眼睛很舒服。偶而還是能看見一些小小雜亂的地方,例如電視櫃下冒出的一條襪子、沙發上被蠟筆畫過的痕跡、牆壁上的塗鴉、地毯上未合起的童話書。8964 copyright protection316PENANA5FfMq8aH1a 維尼

「喔,他們老爸帶他們去釣魚了,應該等一會兒就會回來了。」燕子姊用指腹在濾紙中的咖啡粉上壓出一個淺凹,穩定地注入熱水,粉中的空氣擾動,咖啡粉像是一團發起的麵團,隆起成一座小丘。8964 copyright protection316PENANAwkOnpsGBOa 維尼

瑪莉趁著沖咖啡的空檔問了更多關於反精算前線的內容。燕子姊說,精算與反精算其實是一體兩面的東西,同樣由瑪莉母親提出的受器理論在不同目的的人手中就是天秤的兩端。320Please respect copyright.PENANAFg3rsv8j2b

燕子姊說這杯咖啡是「風漬馬拉巴」,來自南印度西高止山脈海的品種。十九世紀英國殖民時期,英國商人發現了這款豆子,就用商船運回歐洲,歐洲的貴族馬上就愛上這款豆子豐富的香氣。但商船運輸要等很久,歐洲的貴族就吩咐底下的農人在當地種植同種的咖啡,沒想到怎麼樣也無法複製出那鹹甜、充滿穀物香氣的風味。8964 copyright protection316PENANAx8ipPIbFap 維尼

瑪莉拿出筆記紀錄,所以鴴湖的確是能產生抵禦精算的能量,反精算鬥士們在名為人類的最終堡壘對抗精算師的攻擊。難怪他們會對於新來的不明人物那麼設防,畢竟這裡可是核心啊。8964 copyright protection316PENANAlaLEHjrwDr 維尼
