《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。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7N4k5H70f

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。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpurEHymh5H

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。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFU4IkOLTL
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5BwP2drk5
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。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡindCw2ET7r
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxd8xYNqeG
但諾克斯博士見到他帶來的貨色，不禁眉頭一皺。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeg6jBlGsc4
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlF6298fC5
他慌忙補上一句謊話：「這是我的親人。你肯定不會惹上麻煩。」1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37x8xhg74p
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CaLEbxmhp
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。」1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCk9Zc5LVR
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLtRWi4GDy
他沒奈何，但只得接受。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ14vEbtt9o
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4dCgCIvD0
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。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMMf5k3kz7
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3l43rnogep
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！1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMysldDw445
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZnWOWe2IA
領取報酬後，他帶著小女孩的遺物離開辦公室。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZp0MNfdN2
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6mh49PvYv
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。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98XozdsjwB
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPCWy96cXw
城中大鐘不合時宜地響起十二下鐘聲。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehidqrQXQR
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNX2qgwTzw
「聖誕快樂！」1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrYgztlirZ
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3A1va4MLFi
「新年快樂！」1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbgtf67qCk
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnhmIKw0mj
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。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NTWqRrLmM
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBh0xYatmLk
未來？那小女孩已沒有未來——她剛凍死街頭。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPidJw8A71
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSDbQRN1Yi
倏忽飄雪漫天。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kSjr17IjF
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0EwLa4OYo
寒氣徹骨。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY5PxghVR9
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVslQw8cTFR
回家吧。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyWmwYcfoK
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehcCd2HCWv
走進貧民窟，拐入曲折的小路，十分鐘後才抵達家門前。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKBkZEat0C
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1ANR8Kkwl
門開。發現病入膏肓的兒子迷迷糊糊地伏在枱邊喊凍喊餓。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUADbpVorF3
1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjjvQU6s9F
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。1464Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6An1TsTlMn
