迴響的隆隆聲如同夢境般遠去。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgWcGrlbEB
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOSrarRV3o
從開出的小縫裡，一道狹窄的光切開了無邊無際的黑暗。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczTc8VbIXS
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOhLJC8wom
杜若四肢著地地爬出櫥櫃，然後回過頭托著紫藤的肩膀離開那片狹小的黑暗。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObjF22czAh
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcE5HfiUMk
兩人並著肩在階梯旁仰起頭喘著氣，久違地照進眼裡的燈光刺眼眩目，但再怎麼說也比不見天日的黑暗要來得令人安心。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQe83pq7rT
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw9HpS7PyO
連沙華會都靜謐下來，就代表連凌晨也快要結束了吧。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHdMTB3Kro
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7TbQjd9X9
就連喘息的時間也如同光明般狹窄，兩人不可能在這再休息到早晨來臨。於是，杜若一感覺到力氣開始回流到四肢時，就起身伸出手牽起虛弱的紫藤。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wfg8gXuGa
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjA3KyCzWm
「走吧。我們一起回去。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44Wer3hY6j
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQo7UAYqkI
這麼說了之後，杜若便鑽進紫藤的脅下，用窄小的肩頭努力撐起紫藤向前。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIYuOLItJn
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWCZjCj5Ur
一路上，兩人就這樣攙扶著彼此，幸運地毫無阻礙便回到了西區。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVm6SbbBlmo
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiodTliUnX
為了處理傷口，杜若讓紫藤靠到了床板上頭。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQDtmDbrqL
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kU9KSjBhE
「嗚……！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH3V2aoUuE
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsyYn4zuBD
消毒藥水碰到傷口的劇痛，讓紫藤吃痛地叫出悶聲。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbd2QhJZUN
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKMMfeRFTf
「很痛嗎……？」杜若停下動作，擔憂地看向紫藤。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxeLKdiGDJ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PVyw2peds
回到西區的路上，紫藤甚至虛弱到就連話都沒辦法說了。所以哪怕只是一聲也好，杜若也想要聽見紫藤的聲音。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDUUJlaYck
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWJseFpqWK
而痛楚彷彿把紫藤的魂給拉了回來，宛如大夢初醒般地看了杜若和手中的棉花棒後，紫藤才喘著氣、略略地頷首。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYDntn3Aqr
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWj78fDan4Q
「……我還可以忍。」說完，紫藤打直手臂。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0TepWQfsx
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsMdlPXvQl
杜若點點頭，卻宛如做錯了事一般地垂下眼簾。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWNZ69Nz75
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jS5TzkJz1
如果不是自己想要聽信墨駒，也不會讓墨駒有機可趁了——但現在後悔也沒有用，照顧受傷的紫藤才是眼下應該做的事。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRN74DiW3cN
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQRL6P24NV
「那、再忍耐一下就好。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYaH6MP8Cw
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbj5kETAdU
「呼、呼……嗚——！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZxeFaKT6G
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIcoyA5eVd
紫藤試著吸氣來緩和疼痛，卻還是沒辦法不吃痛地發出聲音來。清潔並上完藥後，杜若小心地用紗布蓋起那道駭人的傷口並纏上繃帶，原本純白的繃帶立刻就被染成了一片暗紅。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyrwSyJZp2
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl6htHxuZM
現在只能做這樣的應急處理，等到明天還是得去醫院才行。幸好公用醫療箱裡頭還有這些基本的醫療用品，不然就這樣放著傷口，今晚紫藤恐怕連躺下都會有困難。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvx7BYkAfBu
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFWCeb50Ui
疼痛過了幾次呼吸才終於緩和下來。杜若拿來水杯靠在紫藤的嘴巴上，讓紫藤小口小口地補充水分。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQbP6gmDRo
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeAm6px4Gh
滋潤冰涼地滑過喉間，直到此時、紫藤才終於有種放下心來的感覺。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nytIHbxga
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyZD9CB85s
「還要喝嗎？」杜若捧著還有一半的水杯，輕柔地問。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CiOaScNLn
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5kgIRxXyz
杜若關心的神情就好像是流經喉頭的水那樣沁入了紫藤的胸口。於是紫藤點點頭，再次把嘴湊了過去。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdasZE0Scy3
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit0Cjinfl9
等到杯子空了、正想伸手擦乾嘴角時，杜若就先一步用手帕抹上了紫藤的嘴角。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSkqyQU7cZ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJD05kVDrQC
「……謝謝。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6TGAzPURL
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFmajelGep
「不會啦，現在也輪到我照顧紫藤了。」杜若收起手帕，露出了彷彿可以烘乾衣服的溫暖笑容。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0CJoDfEIV
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSHvj7JuJw
明明、對方不久前才在自己的面前殺了人，但現在看著杜若的側臉，紫藤卻盡只感到安心跟鬆了一口氣的感覺一湧而上。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjlbEfPpOD
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAQMRfXGMd
是自己終於開始習慣了嗎？那時，紫藤的手上就已經流滿鮮血，卻只有砸在墨駒臉上時所沾上的溼黏感格外鮮明。就好像在入睡前的一場夢境，令紫藤感到有些恍惚。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFsqdZyMs6
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFlbj94Uyc
不過，這無疑都是事實。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6YSuRQIDK
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUPGeM63Hu
掌心中，那枚墨駒沒能拿回去的、鑲著淡紫色寶石的銀戒就是最好的證據。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkq65vpsWY
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfGzzEaU0R
紫藤壓根也沒想到有能夠尋回這枚戒指的一天。對紫藤來說、只受這點傷就找回了它簡直是太划算了。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFh3znlISJ0
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4RYv7KwuU
「紫藤、這個戒指到底是……？」杜若好奇地看著手中的戒指，疑惑地歪過頭。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYMhP7DanD
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuBGsaepcM
沉默了半晌，紫藤才慢慢地開口。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwZeIVtwVS
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYRnCZkJl8
「是我媽媽的遺物。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRypj4Ij1Zn
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDcuPn6fso
戒指的內緣刻著一行寫著母親名字的小字，證明了這就是那枚獨一無二的戒指。雖然紫藤對父親沒有任何印象，但母親卻經常以懷念的面容提起關於父親的事情。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h9rVwN5cx
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVQ7AqFLHd
「咦……？那為什麼會在墨駒的手裡呀？」杜若不假思索地問道。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuu3eKSMcC
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPObHydlvds
「我也不知道。」紫藤搖搖頭，黯然地闔上雙眼。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJZWAzuxOC
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwxnbeF1R2
紫藤從來不曾對同輩的人說過這些事，但現在、紫藤卻覺得讓杜若知道也無妨。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbphxu2ooa
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYGNjSKzVG
「可是媽媽他、就是被沙華會的人給殺死的。」就好像在試圖壓下傷口的灼熱似地，紫藤輕撫著前臂的紗布，緩緩地繼續說道：439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSBQoYnGse
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkONzqmuSY
「小時候，我的媽媽曾經向沙華會借過錢。但最後，媽媽卻因為還不出錢來……而被沙華會給殺了。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqU9kALGbL
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTSZvUBkbF
媽媽並不是沒辦法還出錢來，只是在最後一刻、錢竟然被劫走了。紫藤怎麼想都覺得奇怪、為什麼就這麼剛好在那種時候？如今，紫藤認為那一切全都是沙華會的伎倆，他們根本沒有想讓母親還清債務的意思，只想在那一年裡壓榨完母親所有的心力、等到沒價值了就宰殺掉而已。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1QtFOyJrL
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe67PEsHoza
「這就是那時候、他們從媽媽的身上搶走的東西之一。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WWfkvklPQ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2pm7fJnSw
紫藤至今——至死都不會忘記母親在自己的眼前被殺掉的畫面。年幼的自己只能無力地躲在一旁，看著母親殘忍地被一刀刀殘殺至死。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9u8gf2Qmu
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18jdFGpkl4
從那時起，濺在臉上的那朵紅花就已經在紫藤的心頭生根。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBHEjuIR4n
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXrFKUGizR
只是，紫藤也從未想過竟然會在途中找到母親生前的遺物，紫藤覺得自己簡直幸運的無以復加。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXv3BoyFo0
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRy1HiuXTKl
「原來……這是對紫藤來說這麼重要的東西啊。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvBNr0Pd2K
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1fszun1Vv
「嗯。」紫藤在胸前連同戒指握緊了拳頭。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ax9wEGVmQ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RrnI2t6Jr
對紫藤來說，媽媽所留下的東西沒有一個不是珍貴的。無論是這個房間、髮飾、還是這枚戒指，都是媽媽曾經存在過的證明。哪怕再也微不足道，紫藤也想要盡可能地將它們攬在手中。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tIrIO3g5v
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXuJWlpxhKe
自己已經不想要再失去任何東西了。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZEtHZWLIt
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4V6ALnmGT
「紫藤的媽媽是個什麼樣的人、可以跟我說說嗎？」杜若露出了既好奇又害怕冒犯的眼神、試探地探出腦袋。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdj4ruFvUA
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57VUDtf7Dl
紫藤思考地垂下了眼簾幾秒。而再次睜開眼時，紫藤已經將目光放到了不知遙遠的何處。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvJDkVDn2I
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUppHfjJbr
「媽媽他——」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdk6cayfft
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8ZChTS4RA
以這句話做為開場白後，紫藤便將那些早已被自己翻到泛黃的回憶給拿了出來。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90XZyMVcpS
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTbN6RwDWM
小時候，紫藤最常從街上的大叔大嬸嘴聽到的一句話就是「跟媽媽很像」。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPU2Xw6CDe
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcYkl4QWP5
同樣有著一頭的黑色長髮、話也同樣不怎麼多。而唯一不同的，就是媽媽是個非常堅強的女性，總是用那粗糙而修長的手把紫藤給攬在身後。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RR2jVh0ep
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0kYakkVvC
而媽媽在南區有間小小的、買賣布料的店面，小時候的紫藤最喜歡的就是跟在媽媽後頭一起做生意。儘管有時候會因為笨手笨腳而挨其他大叔大嬸的罵，但那卻是紫藤最為快樂的一段時光。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDXuG3RMhH
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7WtpMFyqS
只是在紫藤逐漸長大後，媽媽卻漸漸不希望紫藤跟著自己，而想要把紫藤託付給學校。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDxScwd8Tf
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hFIABpzd9
但紫藤一點都不喜歡學校。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JrFHeS4hH
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98vJEclfwQ
比起那些吵吵鬧鬧又喜歡惡作劇的小孩子，紫藤更喜歡跟在可靠卻寡言的媽媽後頭，幫忙結帳、整理或是裁剪布料。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRZeEimhIq
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTvThnLY7R
對當時的紫藤而言，媽媽這麼做就好像是想要把自己給拋棄一樣。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaIBJYE9am
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZTX8wt9Zy
於是紫藤頭一次跟媽媽吵架了。那是一場紫藤單方面地對著媽媽出氣的架，從頭到尾媽媽都只是靜靜地傾聽著紫藤的任性，偶爾像在思考著什麼地低下頭來。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJQmtRS8u0
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfrgW8BQ8b
而在那之後，媽媽就再也沒有要紫藤去上學了。只是摸摸紫藤的頭以後，就像以前一樣，讓磕磕絆絆的紫藤跟在自己的後頭做生意。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzRje312B2
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNG87AUe3o
嗯，這樣就夠了。那時的紫藤只有這麼單純的滿足。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1kmFS59Hm
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTVVp6IGWt
然而這樣的日子持續不久。在一個秋天的傍晚、鉛炭鎮發生了一起極其嚴重的意外。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9xnlGek8C
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsPKuYCkUS
那是一起倒塌事件。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSBzZadteo
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa52fQpZRJU
由於鉛炭鎮的樓房蓋的十分緊密，因此只要一棟樓倒塌，便極容易引發連鎖效應。那起倒塌事件就現在的記載，足足有將近二十棟的樓房倒塌、傷亡數更是難以記載。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MFDHYoFlQ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktxbDspfmt
雖然沒有受到倒塌事件的直接傷害，但媽媽的店面卻因此全毀，讓兩人頓時失去了幾乎所有的財產。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJLzgfb4oi
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAII0nTOjye
那之後就如紫藤所說，媽媽為了生存而選擇向沙華會借貸。在那一年裡，媽媽幾乎從未闔眼休息、只為了賺回損失的財產。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0zMbc2Lga
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpd5YRYYlG
那時的媽媽早已面容枯槁。而殘忍地將其心力、金錢、生命盡數奪走的惡意，正是沙華會。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNzIfHiwZj
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CzoVWVklA
「……我會找到給墨駒這個戒指的人。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDwuhb0L6s
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJX8WegEBQT
收起回憶，紫藤再次握緊了戒指。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgUXO4jVas
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz4IXdcVYr
「然後，殺了他。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjqr90VtHi
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uHtiYV2ol
紫藤的眼神猶如熾火，沒有一分一毫的搖曳。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yR9r9ljmy
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnGoH1oBsn
但只不過幾秒，便很快地萎靡了下來。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdVDqFzhyN
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEH1K3eil74
「可是、我卻下不了手。」紫藤無力地鬆開了手：「不管怎麼樣……我都沒辦法像杜若妳那樣。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGZjAxAMjB
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MFIfULIzz
明知道沙華會是惡，紫藤卻無法真的對那群敗類下殺手。也許正是因為那時媽媽遭到殺害的畫面烙印得太過深刻，紫藤才會下意識地抑制著、不讓那副景象再次出現吧。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhomwS9x0s
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwu8FA84Kk
而自己的這份軟弱，既沒有人可以幫助紫藤克服，也不會有人能夠理解——除了杜若。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefH7ThEgJP
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhmeJeWmLv
「原來、這就是紫藤想要跟我一起行動的原因呀。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonTtUu6VdG
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsO5IBvx8C
「……嗯。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8QPco36XU
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN04fbGlKKA
那時見到的杜若是如此純粹，就好像一把剛從水中淬出的刀刃般，不帶著任何一絲污穢。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMy42FwHIuO
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XB3UdPnWk
紫藤深信，這就是自己向那些骯髒禽獸復仇的楔子。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluDlR6vrvl
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasqhdngXpS
這就是足以斬斷自己心頭那朵紅花的白刃。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIFB9NOoq9
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKeV6o3LZE
「……杜若妳呢？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvgT1v5ohB
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKo5qJNAkuq
紫藤拾起快要滿溢的情感，回望了杜若那如新月般的雙眸。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIGCFV6ScF
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSje8WCz7zh
「又是為什麼……會開始當殺手？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oZXc0h7BP
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPOEG4U2l4
剛才、杜若確實說過想要請鎮裡最好的醫生，但杜若看起來並不像是患有什麼嚴重疾病或是殘缺的樣子。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EIZgx1sVc
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplQtHJBj6g
聽見紫藤的疑問，杜若就好像是在思考、也像是在害怕似地垂下了眼簾。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy43nTe5TO
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2OxYDDihF
「紫藤……不會生氣吧？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JxfKyLXOP
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1HYhHyJ8I
杜若果然還在意著那時自己的衝動。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GqPmjlIih
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfMVhdyz9Y
但如果是要請醫生，怎麼樣也不會是做不好的事吧？紫藤這麼想著，舉起沒受傷的手摸了摸杜若的頭頂。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mxTzrLnMt
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gxKI1jYix
「不會。」紫藤堅定地說：「我保證。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWOCIsxJQU
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiX62y3TAv
等到紫藤緩緩收起手後，杜若才按著胸口，下定決心地開口。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP8OfxkVlx
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xuB2p3day
「……我想要救陶壺叔。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwYVge1uq2
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29J9uaCmdf
杜若喃喃吐出的回答令紫藤感到十分意外。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ATrU04FXn
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrGazA5PKi
之前見到陶壺叔確實是在北大街，但陶壺叔本人看上去並沒有多大的病痛呀？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukWV3QuNgF
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDg8S8dYurX
就好像發現了紫藤的疑惑，杜若幽幽地繼續說道：439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeKNfNUAmv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZx3ypcttS
「陶壺叔生的是一種會讓身體漸漸沒辦法動的病。醫生說，雖然現在只有手指，但很快就會變成手、腳、身體……最後是心臟。只要過不了四年，陶壺叔就會被那種病給殺死了。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrR9WNQrTKg
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJlaQzkek7
全身慢慢就會不能動的病？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2JWMrZUKT
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mtgR6ud4H
這種病紫藤是頭一次聽見。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWR9KlcCUsz
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID1vWgFIfX
「我也偷偷問了很多醫生，但他們都說那是一種沒辦法治好的病。明明是這樣，但陶壺叔從來都沒跟我說過、還一直都笑著裝作沒事。直到我不小心聽到其他醫生跟白鵑提到陶壺叔，我才知道陶壺叔一直都瞞著我。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksXjpm37c3
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMYywIwUrS
「現在陶壺叔已經沒辦法走很長的路、也不太能拿重的東西了。」杜若的口氣變得哀傷起來，卻也有一份同等重量的不甘心。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6OtnJqO1j
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0Ka2WAV9j
「我明明也想要幫忙陶壺叔的，可是、我卻不知道自己到底該怎麼做才好——因為就連醫生都沒辦法了嘛。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BZo9RHvKe
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsRVaYdPXG
杜若的笑只看得見無力。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2RTqSwLhi
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstup0rAZf8
「直到有天，狐狸告訴我說她有辦法，但前提就是要幫忙她去殺掉那些人。所以，狐狸才發給了我這把槍、還有手機。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeFdnQmrqy
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejbP9WtcLC
到這裡，杜若便沒有繼續說下去了。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJUT8zpTiy
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtP4q8D0KQ
並不是因為仇恨，也不是因為利益，而只是單單地想要為某人而付出。杜若的理由就跟個性一樣是如此單純、甚至令紫藤的胸口刺痛。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AYTcPLox6
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIS1tTov29
然而，紫藤卻忍不住想要質疑的念頭。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYY9dP7Sjyt
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4WBLhEHxX
「那個狐狸、真的就這麼值得相信嗎？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNibG8nd5O
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DmfnVUAPK
如果就連鎮裡最優秀的人都沒辦法了，狐狸又怎麼可能醫好陶壺叔的病？再者，就算殺死的是沙華會的人，讓還只是女孩的杜若去持槍犯險本身就很荒謬。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkU1tGJzeeS
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdla70CCiix
「……狐狸一直都對我很好呀。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEkwyNeiIN
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdogxTFGdU
杜若笑了。卻讓人分不清那是真的笑容、還是在故作堅強，讓紫藤的鼻子裡無聲地滑過一陣酸楚。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GPiWnTSM7
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9tqdCXNKv
「所以，我還是相信狐狸。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVnv6TGwOO
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEsNtTsJ1I
杜若就好像在對自己喊話似地緊緊握起拳頭，但小小的手中、有的卻只有虛無。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVdTQXXaay
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEI251ri5l
也許這麼說太過自以為是，但紫藤從這道笑容裡看到的並不是想要相信、而是不得不相信。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AFqchUaO7
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DogEBoFbC
只因為狐狸的許諾是杜若的最後一絲曙光。所以杜若除了抓住它以外也別無他法——僅僅就只是如此而已。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7IvSiyXUu
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmJjxtb0RS
哪怕、就算那道光芒是朝自己射出的子彈也一樣。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyZYsetvMK
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxT4ydlxQb
紫藤也曾望著母親的背影被偽裝成曙光的惡火給吞噬殆盡。但只因為如此，就可以不負責任地說聲「放棄吧」把一切希望給澆熄嗎？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJgaJTrvrZ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkvlLG93tK
這怎麼可能。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftSqyGTM9j
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvMBnA2GgG
沒有人知曉光芒的後頭是陽光亦或是惡火，但倘若停止腳步、也只會在黑暗消逝。無論是誰，追逐光芒都是與生俱來的本能。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QJGGcyPg2
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPsURcGZcH
看著杜若緊握的手，紫藤便不捨地伸出手、略顯生硬地鑽進了那冰涼而纖弱的掌心。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDr0Pc5AIv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhIcbWb0SI
也許，杜若一直都是握著這樣飄渺晃蕩的希望走來，但起碼現在、紫藤能夠確實地握住杜若。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gNLpnszkX
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbF08tfKkO3
如果杜若前進的方向是惡火，那紫藤就要在最近的地方拉住杜若。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04949ThE7o
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eftlSQr2A
察覺到掌心的柔軟，杜若看著紫藤靦腆地一笑。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLiKRzhbuB
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICMITkx0gS
轉動手腕、解開五指，那份只屬於兩人相握時的溫熱便從掌心蔓延到了指縫439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKavrRl8VN
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTjK0fhxUr
「但就算這樣，我也還是想自己去試試看。」經過短暫的沉澱，杜若再次充滿生氣地抬起頭來。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzevGjfbhR
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95Qv7Zi0pL
「我想只要有夠多的錢的話，也許就可以把大家一起找來、找出能夠馬上醫好陶壺叔的辦法了！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHQAlbytxg
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuQeBR1V8m
剛才籠罩著的陰鬱被一掃而空，杜若看著紫藤，露出了開朗的笑容。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhUgO2dnR4
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lCrqUqJIc
「不過，果然還是不能夠靠沙華會的人呢。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoybYamP80S
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTMVsISWY2
經過剛才被反擊的經驗，讓兩人都對這點有了更多的共識。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QC6lRUJjF
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnXXHnGQzR
說了句「話說回來」後，杜若就一轉話鋒、向紫藤問道：439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0OdvTBeEl
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ19MNkeF1m
「紫藤想要殺掉的人又是誰呀？紫藤還記得嗎？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSXlemADoe
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yynTvxELj
這問題讓紫藤才想起自己從沒有跟杜若——不、甚至是從沒有跟任何人說過這件事。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgfoehpr5m
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6T96RiabV
「是一個……在脖子後面紋著白色線條的沙華會紋身的人。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJNAtsBZCG
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaEYOHRXg0
從腦海深處的角落翻出這片景象。那人在殺害媽媽時，紫藤只有一瞬間記下了那個至今都從未看見第二次的特殊紋身。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr23fhfeSWT
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvbfV7pXv9
「沙華會的紋章幾乎都是鮮紅色的、有白色條紋的紋身……我就只見過那麼一次。但不管我怎麼找、那個人卻就好像消失了一樣，再也沒有出現過。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DBwSA5Uxz
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtAX8oe7He
而唯一有可能知道的墨駒已經被殺了，但紫藤並不感到後悔。比起狡獪的他們，紫藤更寧願靠自己的手去搜索。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdJTALJzgU
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMBiasr9IO
「這樣的話，我也來幫忙吧！」杜若自告奮勇地舉高手：439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgudMmPs82O
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvy1fMZ09To
「兩個人一起找絕對比較快的！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFCPvS0KAv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxarJwpOfrk
杜若的模樣、讓紫藤晚了一步才發現自己說錯了話。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1olNLkXkt
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGquwkX5Wr
紫藤默默地低下頭、沉聲回答。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJGmT9Y4Tg
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzGKxAHXop
「……不用那樣。我……我自己就夠了。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkUqJaqVMv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHaGvo7A7U
這冷淡的回答讓杜若頓時像被潑了水的貓咪似地一愣。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6ASG4BDJh
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu0BBTqHFk
「可是、紫藤不是說到現在都……」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnao5gSGjf
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCfkuTJ2Vf
「這本來就是我自己的事。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xxjvPeyVL
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2SG8hXBhG
就算杜若能夠輕鬆地下殺手，但自己的復仇跟杜若是兩回事。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fZxFOTrB3
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJ7x21Zp9R
紫藤很清楚自己的眼前只有惡火。而單單只是殺手的任務就已經足夠危險，杜若根本沒有必要為此承擔這些危險。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU4MafpqO4
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14MVQkORfo
「那要是紫藤遇到危險怎麼辦！」倏地，杜若站起身、提高音量439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGL8WyRzRPm
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZmz1sol0a
「我就是為了保護自己，才會去學習要怎麼搏鬥。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIpY32c7tP
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8joraxssL
紫藤明白杜若的擔憂。但紫藤正是為了不讓自己在完成復仇前先被吞沒，才用盡了心力去磨練自己。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cTswhhWDi
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWxjoNraRq
「可是、假如對方有槍、假如遇到像今天一樣的事……」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrvS9bgFma
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MAXOptWWI
「我是不會讓自己被殺死的。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FTFW1T8mZ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4r0n0r0alO
「紫藤明明就傷成這樣、還說這種話……！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWb6filx42
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ESsTpd6eA
看見紫藤一副無所謂的模樣，杜若更是焦急到話都說不清楚了。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgJFn3zl5S
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVgENopmjl
紫藤沒能給出杜若期待的回應。卻還是於心不忍地輕握住了杜若的手。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NeZUnioJF
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWyIxMgg45
杜若雖然想甩開，但卻在一半就失去了力氣。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmyhLJjLqm
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnKPNJ2Cqc
「明明、明明紫藤也硬是摻進了我的事情，現在卻又說這種話、這樣真的太不公平了……」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYdWHicbMw
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXNyUwOQao
杜若像個鬧彆扭的孩子一樣發起脾氣，但鬧彆扭的人卻總是最認真的。也因此，紫藤才無從反駁。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqsioIGC6I
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOojrpb5v2E
是啊，明明就是自己先不講理地要杜若帶著自己的，這樣又有什麼資格拒絕杜若呢？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdN8YQ9i3jm
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWvANBWnsO
但就算不公平也好，紫藤之所以握著杜若的手，絕非是要杜若陪著自己跳進火海。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yVUXoUnQ5
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqp6KghKsPk
最後，紫藤還是用了奸詐的說法。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2eU58K1kr
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmjxDNkfg0
「我跟陶壺叔約定過，說不會讓妳受傷了。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDx3xlbvUeE
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNypBUi74VL
「那難道紫藤要我看著妳受傷嗎？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkvcRNy7IX
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iKRpK4Wcw
雖然夾雜著鼻音、但這句話卻如此強而有力。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkXi5V4OtF
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxmN0e9jF9
在八年前的那個夜晚、紫藤也是那樣地看著母親被一刀刀殘殺致死——明明注視著、卻什麼也做不了的無力是多麼令人痛苦，紫藤比任何人都還要明白。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpIqmTzfMX
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9yAVATeNq
杜若也正是因為這樣的痛苦，才選擇了這條看似荒謬的道路。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8anQobm2g0
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiJXHpGbvz
而紫藤打算再在杜若的身上再添一層相同的痛苦嗎？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIl2oDGaE4
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYeg5EORga
紫藤無法回答，只是沉默地別開了視線。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNV8j9JjXY
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81ulPpCs3c
看見杜若受傷，自己會感到痛苦。而看見自己受傷，杜若會感到痛苦。然而若是因此什麼也不做，又有誰能夠替枉死的母親報仇雪恨？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkSZulBBIh
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45uHFYbAZi
哪條路都是崎嶇，哪條路也都是痛苦。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TQcXQCzJ7
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQi9SsuzXTj
如今，在這條路上有個願意走到身旁攜手並進的人，又為何不欣然接受就好？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBv1oPVPUC
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlhASqEYoP
只因為就連接受也是痛苦吧。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jG2j5268H
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAAooqEjx4
但、當初不就是因為明白自己沒辦法獨自走完腳下的路，所以才會自顧自地跟在杜若後頭不是嗎？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhuD87Z2Li
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnBYmWGPL4
如果說想要把什麼東西給握在手裡、就免不了被刺出鮮血。那麼起碼受傷的方式可以交由彼此來抉擇。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsNdw4OPKw
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnACYruWko
思及至此，紫藤才慢慢地放鬆了手中的力道。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRw5uINHlnp
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksvD5gXkQX
「答應我、要先保護好妳自己。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAxS1Y0KR1
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCTE9R9PxL
紫藤不帶一絲玩笑地注視著杜若的雙眼，而看見紫藤的神情，杜若才終於破涕為笑。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eiFAXZXqd
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxipDhKpEm
「可是，紫藤會保護我的吧？這樣我的份不就用不到了？」杜若歪著頭反問。然後扣緊了紫藤安放在腿上的手。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnr2ICynk5i
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRchz7RDz14
「所以，我的份就用來保護紫藤吧！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbX3EmnMUwL
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYwUq1qxza
紫藤雖沒有點頭，卻還是回望著對方微微笑，回握住指縫間的柔軟。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCDV1teU3P
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPdlWsiMsV
「喔喔！紫藤笑了耶！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1Os5QSwfW
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CQo2Mz3XE
頭一次看見紫藤的笑容，讓杜若欣喜地舉高手，卻不小心拉起了紫藤負傷的前臂而使紫藤臉色一緊。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5fBASPMCp
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqo1jZV8sQ
「哇啊啊——！對不起！」杜若立刻慌張地放下手來。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkCKuUI4i9
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8kUmpVUfL
疼痛雖然還沒散去，但紫藤還是發自內心地笑了。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQxubV1JOk
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7KRZRZtKF
「……對了！」這時，杜若突然靈機一動地眼神一亮：「不知道可不可以請狐狸幫紫藤找找看呢？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvehQL3vrtc
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRbGLzx4d4
「咦？」這提議讓紫藤也感到意外地眨了眨眼。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLD7K7ppsE
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0HH49Qx1g
「雖然是我自己猜的……不過狐狸應該很擅長找人吧。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXvTv5KGEt
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiGbnOwjC2
應該說如果那個狐狸不擅長，就不可能精確地知道目標的出沒地點與時間吧。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffkiDRi4gv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJCfJCr5aG
紫藤確實沒想到這個方法——不，更應該說是刻意忽略掉了才是。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzn0WMIZ8v
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1JVhjmXtF
紫藤還是沒辦法相信一個就連臉都沒見過、還讓杜若做這麼危險的事情的人。把這樣重要的任務託付給對方真的妥當嗎？光是想的就有種不踏實感。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzuJuaHmnq
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWh642kuXUj
不過，如果那個狐狸願意幫忙，也許真的會是一大助力。比起自己的脾氣，不是更應該去想要怎樣才能早一步替母親報仇雪恨才對嗎？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJ6SMbKDKv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ60435TNxg
自己尋覓這麼多年來都毫無所獲，而現在就有一個或許能夠跨出一大步的機會，又怎麼能夠放棄？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJylpjPXb5
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfK5ZLzHaLc
「那……可以幫我跟狐狸說說看嗎？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowmWBT1eND
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVqxsOJLNR
「當然呀，這是我提議的嘛～」杜若自信地抱起手臂、挺起胸膛。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPJgk9NbjF
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOcGCjrQ4A
就在這時，紫藤注意到了杜若的手肘與膝蓋上也有著斑斑的擦傷。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GG2ulwwSJ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4VYI3ymso
是被墨駒踢倒的時候撞上的吧。雖然不比紫藤嚴重，但印在杜若柔嫩的肌膚上、還是格外叫人心疼。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdA5Me4INY
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2uo3mBtAC
「妳的傷……換我幫妳吧。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXi9Ru3fxKw
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9Ab3ZWAnl
被紫藤一說，杜若才發覺似地看了看自己的傷，露出一派輕鬆的笑容。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kTAMSprb1
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTYgIgXuuk
「我這點傷才沒事啦～」說完，杜若從醫療箱裡頭翻出了幾條止血貼布遞給紫藤。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw78oNoQ14
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2nuhwapXs
「貼這個應該就可以了。紫藤就幫我一下吧。」說完，杜若也爬到床上坐到了一旁。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqzBD851gZ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgagSI7MDMR
「撕得開來嗎？」杜若看著紫藤有些僵硬的動作，有所顧慮地問。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWStgO7Y0w
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQH56WrW1x
「動作不需要太大，沒問題的。」慢慢地撕開膠帶後，紫藤往杜若受傷的手肘上貼去、神情專注。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqu73NPxK4B
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡay4iUK6REv
「……好了。換膝蓋吧。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TtEQZWQkD
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9urA4luwMv
輕輕撫平皺起的部分，紫藤這才發現杜若一動也不動地盯著自己。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlAXihxfPH
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXqcEaXJcb
「我臉上有什麼嗎？」紫藤不解地偏過頭。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwvJViq3mX
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETbzPrAPbj
「唔嗯、沒有呀。」盯得出神的杜若這才回過神來地搖搖頭，靦腆地說道：439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKCkLWPeM9
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7vRbeTVg5
「只是覺得紫藤認真的模樣……果然好帥喔。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3jXDqxjDA
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceT79Y59gs
突如其來的稱讚，令紫藤頓時耳根一熱。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Lnqw7srxv
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnmBWLCROF
在道場偶爾也會有人這麼稱讚紫藤——儘管紫藤從不這麼覺得——但明明是同樣的誇獎，為什麼從杜若的嘴巴裡說出來感覺就是不一樣呢？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yZd4mRG13
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPR9TuS482
「我、我……」不知道該怎麼回應的紫藤搓著發熱的耳朵，無所適從地左右張望，最後才低下頭、用著連自己都快聽不到的聲音悄聲地說了句：439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGpmzzHzfu
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVY4zFwlk5
「謝謝……」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6RONkPSmF
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyx8zUnCvN
「嗯？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eBPQEWSiq
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4XfzqwEBS
「沒、沒有……！」紫藤彷彿像要掩飾過去拉高音量，匆忙地接著說道：「比起那些、還有膝蓋的傷……！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWYd2pv2sJ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJuB62Hy2S
杜若雖然有些不明白，卻也覺得今天表情豐富的紫藤很有趣，就沒有多問、聽話地打直了雙腳。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡModTJwCRfO
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zhVMWyzgY
杜若的膝蓋上仍沾著一些汙血，那道傷口印在上頭就好像是件純白禮服上的爛泥一樣顯眼——但就算沾上了爛泥，氣質本身也不會輕易改變。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1afqsWUDRj
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfK2I5INQ3
雖然怎樣也稱不上是修長，但杜若的腿卻讓紫藤不禁想到了幼貓那短巧可愛的前腳，讓人忍不住想要伸手捏個一把。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRcfi9Kv4h
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcBnACqTZr
不對不對、現在可不是做那種事的時候。不要再想些不正經的事了。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFw3weAUI5
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbgJurfrLo
「稍微……稍微彎起來一點。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hSsbJWzKA
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguNJJNBMux
「這樣？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi31wUBrjwe
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMh2kIF0NS
為了不讓自己再胡思亂想，紫藤支吾地說。一會才終於定下心來把貼布貼上了膝蓋的傷口。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGUnied08x
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOBNAM6KIi
「……嗯！這樣就可以了吧！」杜若點點頭，滿意地打量著自己手上腳上的貼布。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJ59EtjAkJ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYPJl6lSqE
於是紫藤收起醫療用品，起身將箱子放回原位。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruHCloiSNT
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnHdlYNF9F
「對了，剛才紫藤提到的事件……」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTpfRpnwXp
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtgYkWSjA9
就在要踏出房門的時候，杜若忽然想到了什麼似地開了口。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLWaqH7bo3
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqh9AbqHPgA
「事件、是倒塌事件嗎？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yF67HdioM
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kT60hHFPC
「唔、嗯……」杜若好像沒聽清楚似地，只把頭點到了一半，便默默地垂下眼簾。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2AFsgYl4W
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlJt9cifdR
「怎麼了嗎？」看見杜若的模樣，令紫藤擔心地走了回去。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyV2XW82Mo
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwPvEX4wVO
但杜若沒有做出回應，只是像在思考般地沉默了一會後，才撓撓頭髮抬起了頭來。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzL11azms8
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77L56X0tDb
「沒有……沒事的喔！」杜若再次露出一如往常的笑容：「再不睡覺的話明天又要遲到了！還是趕快把東西放回去，然後好好洗澡睡覺吧！」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TWRJS6TRe
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJrQR6LD2z
紫藤雖然感到疑惑，卻還是沒有多問地走出了房間。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXfdCzUr65
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahy5W8LLZI
回來後、在淋浴間前，兩人看著彼此身上的一塊塊包紮，忽然察覺到了什麼而尷尬地笑了。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRueXxsdsm
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPj665gUB0
「我們……好像弄錯順序了耶。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxUIjHNCVD
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlCBP48iiP
「……只能用擦的了吧。」紫藤望向手上一大片的暗紅紗布，洩出了一聲嘆息。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDFOqoqCya
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYN4Bld61PU
雖然天氣還很炎熱，用擦澡倒也不會著涼，但紫藤現在只有一隻手，想要擦去全身的溼黏感實在是難如登天。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTJ23Xfl7w
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYuECErsPK
杜若也察覺到紫藤有苦難言的模樣，於是悄悄地湊到了紫藤的一旁。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9MnvV6jOL
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzYHqZl1Zx
「紫藤需要我幫忙嗎？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjT7efwmrC
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvirUQLi6Kk
起先紫藤還沒聽懂杜若的意思，但看著杜若站到了自己和淋浴間之間，紫藤才瞬間紅了臉頰。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPTavVD2nm
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8gSthOdSH
「我、我自己來就可以了……」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YvVsB66Ur
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jK6Eg8wft
在外頭、紫藤光是露出手臂以外的皮膚都會感到有些憋扭了，更何況是和人坦誠相待，即使是杜若——不、正因為是杜若，紫藤才更在意這點。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDudQeTaWf
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AaizcZrgI
終於，在簡單擦去一身的灰塵與汗濕後，兩人才可以好好地關上燈休息。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdnqhUr0Gq
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxdgCNfogO
房間沉入一片黑暗。而在這片熟悉的黑暗當中，卻多了道不同的吐息。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxUXECZw6s
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY45dh9NZaY
明明昨天還沒有這麼明顯地感覺到杜若的存在，現在紫藤卻能夠清楚地感覺到對方的呼吸拂過臉頰。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFBAz1W7Vj
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSa00lvOIIF
因為說好了，所以剛才也讓杜若用了跟自己一樣的沐浴乳。和草草擦乾污痕的紫藤不同，剛沖過澡的杜若身上香得不可思議。那宛如水果混合了奶油的甜香挾帶著專屬於杜若的微暖體溫，光聞著就令紫藤的胸口發癢。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPjsObIFTs
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTYOS0T4Ci
明明是一樣的東西，為什麼用在杜若的身上味道就是完全不同呢？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pVzCCcG2U
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMip8F8VMUd
「……紫藤。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla6teIboKY
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMay5KNHF5A
「怎麼了？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSHS37V4aJ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqNmDRR4ip
就在紫藤兀自思考時，杜若用著像是隨時會消失在黑暗中的細小聲音、輕聲地喚了紫藤。而在紫藤回問後，杜若沒有馬上回答，只是輕揪住紫藤的衣領，向前挪動身子。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9Wqtc9lUf
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvd2QGyboE
「紫藤說、會一直在我身邊……我可以相信紫藤吧？」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N90REbPmV
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdwBgXpVsy
那是躲在櫃子裡頭時紫藤為了安撫恐慌的杜若，而下意識脫口而出的承諾。也許是四周的黑暗、讓杜若又想起了那時的感覺吧。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMtoYtdyks
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qr1i3JKIA
紫藤伸出手輕蓋在了杜若的後腦，卻沒有辦法就這麼點頭。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw6Ko0Hnl7
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Jf9KUXF1z
就連明天，紫藤都不知道自己是不是還能夠像現在躺在這張床上了。那又何況是更遙遠的以後呢？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1d9ENyiff
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlHEnsoVgb
這世上難以實現的事情多如繁星，即使是伸手能夠觸及的光芒，也不乏混濁的惡火，而自己選擇的前路更是如此。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQxgcN6HMo
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EPj8tZVDd
既然難以實現，那就不該給予承諾。面對再也單純不過的杜若，這樣的輕浮是種殘酷。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFj8z5zdYZ
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3R8Vc4gnP
可是要是因此就什麼也不能夠承諾、什麼也不能夠相信，不也是另一種殘酷嗎？439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyud9ZSbSs
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhFepdkYeC
確實，紫藤不能夠保證前路的光明不是槍口的閃焰，也不能夠成為驅趕黑暗的陽光。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGUTolnUer
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVzZ4isM4Q
不過紫藤現在就在這裡。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyp24vXTpxd
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rXFZuW2lE
無論腳下的是光明還是黑暗，只要紫藤還能夠伸出手，就不會讓杜若握起的手中僅有一撮虛幻。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViIbIfHHA4
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXnqGHdddi
於是、紫藤探出指頭，用指腹輕貼上了杜若的臉頰。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUROHgUUnXh
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdKYZNEPYR
「……我會試著做到的。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8LgqKPGEL
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc11A0fOHKY
「什麼嘛……」聽見這不乾脆的回答，杜若便沒輒地笑了。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofpRxgLQXh
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6UW7udzut
「不過……我相信紫藤喔。」439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo28RdgEPdj
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJEJsAjQuS
不給紫藤辯解的餘地。說完，杜若就這麼微笑著闔上眼，沉沉地往夢鄉走去。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGM3aappvHR
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxB1R3ZzS4R
窗外打進的微光逐漸照亮紫藤的視野，杜若雪白的髮絲在輪廓的邊緣透著薄光，就宛如隨風飄逸的紗絹一樣。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzZqHDHDhU
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBnhLG46IF
從呼吸聲聽來，杜若大概是在睡著時就會蜷起身子的類型——就連這點也跟貓很像啊，紫藤不禁調侃地想。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHcoVsC9kn
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM4sHPweF3
疼痛令紫藤沒辦法把杜若給攬進懷中，但紫藤卻仍湊近了身子，把那道溫熱的呼吸給小心地挨近胸口。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCV8LJfdda
439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibTFrQR3Wi
而杜若只是既像在回應、又像在撒嬌般地發出一聲夢囈，把身子更加地縮了進去。439Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSGr764RKa
