他一直盯著那瑟縮牆角的小女孩。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8X4OJJzzhC

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。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUG1WalsvU

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。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE22OZpAefw

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。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXDtn6Tw1P
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3WPjDT5q9
但諾克斯博士見到他帶來的貨色，不禁眉頭一皺。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMS5lu9OLTj
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUn4kGP8yy
他慌忙補上一句謊話：「這是我的親人。你肯定不會惹上麻煩。」916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbQKa7nNUZ
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqo0XcIbfK4
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。」916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueMXlWpJp8
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6kM9FJjeq
他沒奈何，但只得接受。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2M6X3GPiG
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3qqyMYFtM
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。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AYyLX6j2h

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！916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCIrQ0UH0r
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6x5wxeqAK
領取報酬後，他帶著小女孩的遺物離開辦公室。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNc27yMIqJ
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LtL8blQw7
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。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfBsB6gzkH
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6QEKDPNjV
城中大鐘不合時宜地響起十二下鐘聲。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqx7UEdKHY
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUxZJrSPFu
「聖誕快樂！」916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3T2Gc0Pbx
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPYZ8TXDdu
「新年快樂！」916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83CMHgD5Rb

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。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIW20n4LafA

未來？那小女孩已沒有未來——她剛凍死街頭。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8KAe6wag0
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm8SblgWpJ
倏忽飄雪漫天。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9GbmHWtBR
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonuXI4t7VZ
寒氣徹骨。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxrerNXhdj
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwJn2zrC9P
回家吧。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFExjnan4q
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahCPg2EQQ3
走進貧民窟，拐入曲折的小路，十分鐘後才抵達家門前。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc6f6cm9Aj
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsEWvWQ71i
門開。發現病入膏肓的兒子迷迷糊糊地伏在枱邊喊凍喊餓。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p8zSgx1ZD
916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qcAL5Ytz6
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。916Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKV8sx0bpMQ
