597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99xAyNwOiA
「人死之後呢，就比較單純……留給後代的東西，能決定他的價值⸺努那受試者跟帝國受試者都是罪人，但是，他們為病毒研究奉獻己身，就能留下價值：給家人金錢、給自己減刑。」597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCGV4xucE7
597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNAaY0zC6r

針葉林中，兩架「納蘭守望」撐開巨大帆布，幫底下的人遮風擋雪。齊波尼亞把骨灰罈與種子放進土中，與母親一同看著業者封上石碑。597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJh1ibCFVR

「等一下……」597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQU1zJ09wKS
597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn52TDbIhy
那個曾經是父親的人，給家裡的痛苦多過幸福。少年快步離開，不想讓阿嬤在天之靈悲傷。597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYz2uXZ2AsX
597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4niOI7f3L
想讓風雪吹散雜亂的心緒，齊波坐到門口長椅上。597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTwLgwLcZC

「那個大叔……剛才有來嗎？」597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VutQd1wqJ
597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6G1oBojZt
兩人瞇起眼睛觀察。那個大叔身穿破舊大衣，雜亂毛髮與骯髒皮膚，像是遠離文明的隱士。當他正想轉身離開時，突然公務人員攔下。597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYZuBCGt2a
597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UbfR3rCT0
「政府專車？」嘉娜莉用相機望遠鏡頭找到線索，「要去找市長嗎？」597Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraUQzFFzb2
