《盒誌》雜誌第二十二期徵稿 - 幽幽冬夜

他一直盯著那瑟縮牆角的小女孩。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZ11ApwoXb
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEEVS9cuQY
看著她因嚴寒而打顫，看著她為取暖而不斷劃下火柴，看著她對著火光傻傻發笑，看著她的微笑僵住，看著她一動也不動。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLick5mt2f

他潛步走近，確認她停止呼吸後，俐落地將那小小的遺體放入大布袋裡，匆匆前往諾克斯博士的辦公室。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ287DAqy8TU
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQG8LArIyz
聽聞合法的屍體供應不能滿足研究需求，不少解剖學家願意花大錢偷偷買下來源不明的屍體。諾克斯博士就是當中尤其闊綽的一個。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Mnl50Xqoy
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw89NSNDSDF
但諾克斯博士見到他帶來的貨色，不禁眉頭一皺。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6L0QSjhJt9
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBREwB7mKpm
他慌忙補上一句謊話：「這是我的親人。你肯定不會惹上麻煩。」859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgEX2icP2h
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QKMAEZ5jk
諾克斯博士還是認為這貨不值一個好價錢：「如果你真的那麼缺錢，可以帶走她的財物賣掉。」859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gsKUDZW32
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzSCtQk3iY
他沒奈何，但只得接受。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ROl5AOKWI
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNY4H4EdP0W
他小心翼翼地翻動小女孩的遺體。除了因著諾克斯博士的要求（切勿毀壞遺體），亦因著對她的歉意。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdu3IxUqQhK
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ72Wu65ZnF
無人生來就是壞傢伙。若非一貧如洗，他決不幹此缺德非法勾當！859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4CMJfMPft
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ69MqERaLZ
領取報酬後，他帶著小女孩的遺物離開辦公室。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuh2mlGDeJR
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPCGdahC5o
肅殺街景和溫暖的辦公室形成強烈對比，他一下子接受不來、反應不了，愣在原地倍感悲悽。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lkTvnaqwy
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBRN3G8dwV
城中大鐘不合時宜地響起十二下鐘聲。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XtP2E2f5H
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGwqTPlZVy
「聖誕快樂！」859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNs5zDHehj
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KSISARqFR
「新年快樂！」859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzT31ZFObl
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWxjJMyoZ3
鄰近富戶不約而同傳出歡呼聲、祝福聲，訴說對未來的憧景與盼望。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL50N4BxSVT
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTnep7uUyR
未來？那小女孩已沒有未來——她剛凍死街頭。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwpc5ra79q
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXy1IhBjCV
倏忽飄雪漫天。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAqp22z3xy
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfhnoXEphi
寒氣徹骨。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAOHClaWeG
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbSXHvDICI
回家吧。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vIF6braIy
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4xvkTnAQP
走進貧民窟，拐入曲折的小路，十分鐘後才抵達家門前。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWY5hAnqAh
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIj25gtdmy
門開。發現病入膏肓的兒子迷迷糊糊地伏在枱邊喊凍喊餓。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNglZr7eYnF
859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxj41VEgVr
他上前一把擁兒子入懷，多麼希望剛才含笑離世的不是小女孩，而是懷中親兒。859Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAf3KTrfkSz
