史密斯列車正行駛於大西洋下的海底隧道。海中世界不如童話故事描繪得美好，這裡超出陽光所及的範圍，窗外的景色不管怎麼看，都是黑漆漆的一片。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6JqmwilZp
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwetmhZLjHz
史密斯列車，如其名，乃十大家族第七──史密斯馬戲團的根據地。家族成員以車為家，以馬戲團表演者的身分環遊世界、巡迴演出，營利所得幾乎都捐給慈善組織，因此，史密斯被譽為「慈善之父」，在全世界有很高的名望。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrobQcRjOA
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLitLaCNel
如今，史密斯列車從美洲出發、前往非洲，預計耗費一個月車程。這段時間的他們只能待在車上，與世隔絕。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAgV6uV98o

列車上，一名身材魁武的光頭大漢穿著橘色的西裝。他的面容很特別，右眼失明，右半邊臉全部都是刺青，花樣是紅色的女王皇冠。他行走於列車與列車之間，中途時不時跑過裝扮奇特的家族成員。就算沒有表演，史密斯的日常打扮，依舊異於常人。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgg2r0mfgf
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimbpZ9TjP4
「叩、叩、叩！」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvJQisxDZW
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY5eq5ef79
光頭大漢敲了團長室的門，沒多久，門被一名紅頭髮的年輕男子打開。和光頭大漢不同，紅髮男子右臉頰上的刺青，是紅色的蝴蝶結。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhdsGblKbn
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JEsXy9Mxy
「早安，泰勒（Tyler）！」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcijTBtppEi
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBgVvwjmM9
關上房門，紅髮男子燦爛一笑，「這個時間，是來陪我吃午餐的嗎？」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjiEiR8cc9
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1d6rLQkgWA
「別開玩笑了，我沒有和奧斯卡（Oscar）團長共進午餐的資格。」光頭大漢語帶挖苦地說。他的聲音雖然低，卻不會讓人覺得恐怖。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOeY7nxjzU
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLpIC8YS8f
「哈哈！說過很多次，私下叫奧斯卡就行。我們是一起長大的兄弟姊妹，沒什麼好顧忌的。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviiR3qpZe6
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CFpNNy56a
紅髮男子拍了拍光頭大漢的背。雖然有體型差距，但紅髮男子──奧斯卡大他五歲，是光頭大漢的大哥。而且，奧斯卡是現任團長，也是史密斯的領導者。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZzORvsfpg
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGqgrUNJkA
「艾琳（Irene）叫我拿這個給你。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJUx98LMdk
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAQMsZOO9x
說完，光頭大漢拿出一疊紙。奧斯卡稍微瀏覽，露出異常詭異的微笑。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2lJY3zkfP
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rp9vEzIKH
「不錯。」奧斯卡得意地說：「這樣就萬無一失了。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfh7jOzDmNR
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf52yN1umGk
「是啊。」光頭大漢點頭，「弟妹們都很期待。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6KclsNBd7
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyBhD6czu5
奧斯卡露出胸有成竹的表情，坐到自己的辦公桌上。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxJZjBLDV8
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDTtOrV31H
「下次演出，將是我們的最後一場戲。史密斯馬戲團即將解散，展開夢寐以求的定居生活！」奧斯卡翹著腳說。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OO5SFSXYv
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd1lj7IlGC
「但，這樣真的好嗎？」光頭大漢說：「接受謝氏的幫助，向來沒有立場的我們，可能被認定為反高派。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOajA6aIc8b
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyHGHTg6e5
「反高派也沒什麼不好。你想想，有謝氏、薩拉凱爾、Platinum站在同一陣線，高宇維沒什麼好怕的。」奧斯卡瞇著眼睛說。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVxkHoGSmC
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdCebmlFaM
「……。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOgSKbur4p
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItZOwD19K6
光頭大漢沒有回話，只是嘆口，上前拍了拍奧斯卡的肩膀，感慨地說：「辛苦了，要不是爸爸走得突然，你不用背負這麼沉重的事。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgB3OaSRBs3
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lfr9nfuA9
「只要能讓弟妹過上好日子，再累我都願意。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1XbJ3wWR5
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEchNN9rAW
看到奧斯卡的笑容，光頭大漢知道他沒有在逞強，就放心了。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4c8XC3FMB
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMPrONOU5c
「幫我告訴艾琳，等我寫完劇本，會去找她討論。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiL7JHDeBbC
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXP1o5ZVvn
「沒問題。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNR1J66XEs
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2e7dsTGqm1
說完，光頭大漢離開團長室。他穿過好幾節車廂，先去跟四妹艾琳轉達奧斯卡的話，回到自己黑漆漆的房間。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOynjmT7lh7
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApAkdGMGgy
光頭大漢打開燈。房間的紅色地毯上，一名和他長得一模一樣──衣服、髮型、刺青、身材──全部一模一樣的人正倒在地上，身體被繩子綁著，嘴也被戴上給狗穿的嘴套。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WppiMjmt9
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5MsrBBgmM
「……！」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Id5jP2Vvt
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbniEg3Sfk
一看到光頭大漢進來，那人開始扭動身子，然而，繩子的材質不知是什麼做的，身材魁武的他無法掙脫，只能在地上蠕動，發出低沉的吼叫。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsq2dHkrgtA
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCitqdYev1N
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91ouf5N2wx
「別露出這麼可怕的表情嘛。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw91vzKSDk8
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEj4RGGEwVS
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd5YPQSkjd
光頭大漢開口，然而，他的聲音跟剛才完全不同，竟然是女聲。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnXItwfPaG
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VmwWXP9vz
「說好的，不傷害你的兄弟姊妹，我可是都有忍住喔。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfIG6pk6z0
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHMNynF0Z9
下一秒，光頭大漢屈起身子、骨頭傳來「卡！卡！」的聲音。他的身體以不規則的型態扭動、彎曲，然後，原本一米九的他，身子竟縮回一百五十公分的嬌小身型。他剝掉臉上的面具、摘掉光頭的頭套，黑色的直長髮披散在後背，從馬戲團的光頭大漢，變回Knight隊長賴雪檸。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GSJXrLFiE
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgJJbtnZKT
「呼！」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx510zmuOl3
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5fbVBupHp
雪檸解開脖子上的領帶，用手搧著風，「熱死我了……怎麼樣？我演得很像吧！我這人沒什麼專長，就是特別會模仿。憑這演技，加入你們馬戲團不是問題！」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsJQjpClLV
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpFneqXe6l
「……！」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlV3hHS9kr
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UPRMfkQB0
地上的人──不，泰勒。泰勒．史密斯（Tyler Smith）本尊，依然拚了死命掙扎。不管雪檸露出多活潑、可愛的表情，都無法改變這個女人入侵史密斯列車襲擊他，假扮成泰勒的事實。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaWVwf7SB1
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD9tGzPjeD
「我說，泰勒先生。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYvnR4aMql
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiTWmzQQmM
雪檸從寬大的西裝褲中，拿出一雙白手套戴上。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDzfYZKGku
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBM0J2pcNKN
「就這麼放任你家大哥亂來好嗎？再這樣下去，他會是史密斯最後一位團長，也是最年輕就死去的團長喔。你怎麼都沒有阻止他呢？」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tA2HBgRp7
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkRO2gcbfg
「……！」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa9dQbgrIf
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfeODRGwLI
「當然，如果你現在趕快告訴他：我偷偷拷貝了一份你們的計畫，說不定能避免悲劇發生，不過啊──」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTzNlIsA0l
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGYEikyIEF
說著，雪檸走到泰勒面前，一手揪住泰勒的領子，一把將人拽起來，笑容可掬地說：735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHn32haFxLK
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYYv4O9ObL
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2u3wvauy0
「很可惜。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UNKa6oUQT
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbuyx3MnYD
’’Dead Men Tell No Tales.’’735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlzMmWz3ZX
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2ssg31wtg
「死人不會說話。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZfXKkLPf9
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDZUFPcUBp
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mr4tusGn5
下一秒，一把刀貫穿泰勒的胸口，鮮血從橘色的西裝滲出。泰勒瞪大眼睛，猙獰的臉部表情，與始終笑咪咪的雪檸，成了極端對比。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBI6BbWmBh
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzfTzOTHHV
「晚安，泰勒。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWNBAlX2yk
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzEd2UDdBM
雪檸的匕首往右、用力一割，同時閉上眼睛，用禱告的語調說：735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUubWlaogv
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKkfuRsZq6
「沙利葉在上。願月之天使伴你左右。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oY0vEcvwL
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMIM5f3srr
「啊……！啊……！」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M7tSeyvJo
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhApExUVKT
「願月光帶你遠離深海。願祂的長劍為你阻擋利維坦的烈焰。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDwPtYOxiN
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPUvyY64q5
「啊啊……！」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRPPVmok3h
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93h2w6F7pH
「願祂的慈悲為你開啟天堂之門──」雪檸睜開眼睛，「你的靈魂終將安息。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LiDw8pkQT
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGlXgblMMJ
「……。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH65qvtwaIi
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwC75yVMsw
嘴套流出鮮血，泰勒僅存的左眼失去光輝，原本顫抖的身子停止所有動靜。雪檸把他身上的鐵鍊和嘴套拆下，再將屍體弄成跪姿，讓泰勒的手握著刀柄，喬裝成自殺。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeQTRYRIbm
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlkLC55rTT
「OK！接下來，請博洋用白色空間送我回家就行了。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ymckmh9fH
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCa1ZxzPIa
雪檸伸了伸懶腰，表情不像殺完人，倒像晾完衣服、準備休息的家庭主婦。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbUlq5560m
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzpXOYS0fg
Knight沒有天賦卻各有各的長處。顧爾耐打，雷伊攏絡人心，赫爾曼拷問……至於隊長雪檸，則是過人的變裝術與演技。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTcjvaqjBX
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rHuKzHWmJ
高矮胖瘦、男女老少，不論聲音、外型、言行舉止，她能模仿得一模一樣。說得好聽，雪檸是世界一流的演員；說得難聽，她是最厲害的騙子。735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwte5BUghL
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqZqtnYxz9
「不過，真傷腦筋啊。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLpiVoD7kW
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalFDVet013
從架上拿起拷貝的計畫書，雪檸看著封面的標題，困擾地說：735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp851RJsBa
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPDFDwrdRF
「要是讓宇維少爺知道，一定會氣炸……不，不只宇維少爺，連我都有點火大了，何況是里奧和赫密士。」735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTn5PPNRpR
735Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMud3LFNtRQ
想到奧斯卡那句「高宇維沒什麼好怕的」，雪檸忍不住搖頭。這位年輕的馬戲團團長，不知道分寸兩字的意涵。故意也好，玩笑也好，這一次，史密斯真的踩到了底線。8964 copyright protection731ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUdpWjtXmz 維尼
