迴響的隆隆聲如同夢境般遠去。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vn0y0z0Nh
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpr2HASWjg
從開出的小縫裡，一道狹窄的光切開了無邊無際的黑暗。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpR3hXXSbH
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeVDjhFssP
杜若四肢著地地爬出櫥櫃，然後回過頭托著紫藤的肩膀離開那片狹小的黑暗。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZHD8f3I9D
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUf6ZmEhLav
兩人並著肩在階梯旁仰起頭喘著氣，久違地照進眼裡的燈光刺眼眩目，但再怎麼說也比不見天日的黑暗要來得令人安心。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sk9TYTrZh
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9KkFqkSgq
連沙華會都靜謐下來，就代表連凌晨也快要結束了吧。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgootVyWWz
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAFL1rOC4N
就連喘息的時間也如同光明般狹窄，兩人不可能在這再休息到早晨來臨。於是，杜若一感覺到力氣開始回流到四肢時，就起身伸出手牽起虛弱的紫藤。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38AJzWxanV
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2mynHXnPW
「走吧。我們一起回去。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFL8D4qmip
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzYoZArJk6
這麼說了之後，杜若便鑽進紫藤的脅下，用窄小的肩頭努力撐起紫藤向前。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlsUBrOnVC
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVIvyosuJr
一路上，兩人就這樣攙扶著彼此，幸運地毫無阻礙便回到了西區。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBXZg5N6dU
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgr6HWwzN6S
為了處理傷口，杜若讓紫藤靠到了床板上頭。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0LWyeQcx6
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBm3nbxKTtO
「嗚……！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡByWcbi3Nox
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIXnyB0UqV
消毒藥水碰到傷口的劇痛，讓紫藤吃痛地叫出悶聲。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2hEKvvOaK
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WyKdmtXa4
「很痛嗎……？」杜若停下動作，擔憂地看向紫藤。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPZruk5yLE
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfye5egSh1K
回到西區的路上，紫藤甚至虛弱到就連話都沒辦法說了。所以哪怕只是一聲也好，杜若也想要聽見紫藤的聲音。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibn1wAN8lI
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGHG2jnB3X
而痛楚彷彿把紫藤的魂給拉了回來，宛如大夢初醒般地看了杜若和手中的棉花棒後，紫藤才喘著氣、略略地頷首。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46UQRpCcSp
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAvIvWz4Fr
「……我還可以忍。」說完，紫藤打直手臂。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWrTwqhD6H
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGir2zdlsR
杜若點點頭，卻宛如做錯了事一般地垂下眼簾。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dbd3mPSSu
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFSXfcvgeW
如果不是自己想要聽信墨駒，也不會讓墨駒有機可趁了——但現在後悔也沒有用，照顧受傷的紫藤才是眼下應該做的事。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIKai9cPLg
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PpQQ5fLRK
「那、再忍耐一下就好。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzB2Fh7QtZ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXk5f568Ng
「呼、呼……嗚——！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFh7Hq3ezGs
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6PxN2qc77
紫藤試著吸氣來緩和疼痛，卻還是沒辦法不吃痛地發出聲音來。清潔並上完藥後，杜若小心地用紗布蓋起那道駭人的傷口並纏上繃帶，原本純白的繃帶立刻就被染成了一片暗紅。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLMoXTMer6
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqQ9QwiARI
現在只能做這樣的應急處理，等到明天還是得去醫院才行。幸好公用醫療箱裡頭還有這些基本的醫療用品，不然就這樣放著傷口，今晚紫藤恐怕連躺下都會有困難。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbavzKxWka
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAqekwkBGo
疼痛過了幾次呼吸才終於緩和下來。杜若拿來水杯靠在紫藤的嘴巴上，讓紫藤小口小口地補充水分。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eoOGIG8mL
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFw20m64ak1
滋潤冰涼地滑過喉間，直到此時、紫藤才終於有種放下心來的感覺。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP99IDxP5qU
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gID0uYhQl
「還要喝嗎？」杜若捧著還有一半的水杯，輕柔地問。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmdSgvy9Nw
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAeHYJSaT8
杜若關心的神情就好像是流經喉頭的水那樣沁入了紫藤的胸口。於是紫藤點點頭，再次把嘴湊了過去。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UJnWJxC39
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOb0GZmfNx
等到杯子空了、正想伸手擦乾嘴角時，杜若就先一步用手帕抹上了紫藤的嘴角。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIW43TTx3W3
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAwHeAajK0
「……謝謝。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfsJkKmW8E
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2IIufT0Rd
「不會啦，現在也輪到我照顧紫藤了。」杜若收起手帕，露出了彷彿可以烘乾衣服的溫暖笑容。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXINBQYl2pW
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtbR4JWoYK
明明、對方不久前才在自己的面前殺了人，但現在看著杜若的側臉，紫藤卻盡只感到安心跟鬆了一口氣的感覺一湧而上。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yYUtmOzUZ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq45DeGtFI
是自己終於開始習慣了嗎？那時，紫藤的手上就已經流滿鮮血，卻只有砸在墨駒臉上時所沾上的溼黏感格外鮮明。就好像在入睡前的一場夢境，令紫藤感到有些恍惚。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWuyd2kwFb
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxF8kztkMvM
不過，這無疑都是事實。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6KpcZYI7G
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lQqBzxGri
掌心中，那枚墨駒沒能拿回去的、鑲著淡紫色寶石的銀戒就是最好的證據。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpKLu5xhUa
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJAP00KvEu
紫藤壓根也沒想到有能夠尋回這枚戒指的一天。對紫藤來說、只受這點傷就找回了它簡直是太划算了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlygRIaAzN
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxOW8YmsQ1
「紫藤、這個戒指到底是……？」杜若好奇地看著手中的戒指，疑惑地歪過頭。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeCEuIp9ui
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBEUWS4Ezj
沉默了半晌，紫藤才慢慢地開口。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPksuBLrlI
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKScho87aH
「是我媽媽的遺物。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MhanKHzSi
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QIqF566yb
戒指的內緣刻著一行寫著母親名字的小字，證明了這就是那枚獨一無二的戒指。雖然紫藤對父親沒有任何印象，但母親卻經常以懷念的面容提起關於父親的事情。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMhhY5gpMM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaj5tMJ6qB
「咦……？那為什麼會在墨駒的手裡呀？」杜若不假思索地問道。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAGYpFAKdi
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPGKNpRzcl
「我也不知道。」紫藤搖搖頭，黯然地闔上雙眼。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gVayOvja7
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeELbWxAFpk
紫藤從來不曾對同輩的人說過這些事，但現在、紫藤卻覺得讓杜若知道也無妨。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWV4ZaGHD5k
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvn4lSt1vsG
「可是媽媽他、就是被沙華會的人給殺死的。」就好像在試圖壓下傷口的灼熱似地，紫藤輕撫著前臂的紗布，緩緩地繼續說道：582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfrvcEnA9d
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFPy4qbjvJ
「小時候，我的媽媽曾經向沙華會借過錢。但最後，媽媽卻因為還不出錢來……而被沙華會給殺了。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJq9ACG8tA7
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmgkb7XXra
媽媽並不是沒辦法還出錢來，只是在最後一刻、錢竟然被劫走了。紫藤怎麼想都覺得奇怪、為什麼就這麼剛好在那種時候？如今，紫藤認為那一切全都是沙華會的伎倆，他們根本沒有想讓母親還清債務的意思，只想在那一年裡壓榨完母親所有的心力、等到沒價值了就宰殺掉而已。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtErvcHDdz
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5g3sLgaFF
「這就是那時候、他們從媽媽的身上搶走的東西之一。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttMt0Cmcca
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fEtJP1Bqz
紫藤至今——至死都不會忘記母親在自己的眼前被殺掉的畫面。年幼的自己只能無力地躲在一旁，看著母親殘忍地被一刀刀殘殺至死。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKwuDDyYUq
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSGewLr8aV
從那時起，濺在臉上的那朵紅花就已經在紫藤的心頭生根。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZBwxcYaOZ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDhuJnV9RQ
只是，紫藤也從未想過竟然會在途中找到母親生前的遺物，紫藤覺得自己簡直幸運的無以復加。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQh2JlkBjH5
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjJhQZSs1x
「原來……這是對紫藤來說這麼重要的東西啊。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWndB3aMGj
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC6Rzr5Pm4
「嗯。」紫藤在胸前連同戒指握緊了拳頭。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyC62tDx6c
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1zHgrkgDx
對紫藤來說，媽媽所留下的東西沒有一個不是珍貴的。無論是這個房間、髮飾、還是這枚戒指，都是媽媽曾經存在過的證明。哪怕再也微不足道，紫藤也想要盡可能地將它們攬在手中。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dwnt3IWnM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyZERta5Us
自己已經不想要再失去任何東西了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSt4OZEhHa
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvgMOGF5fQ
「紫藤的媽媽是個什麼樣的人、可以跟我說說嗎？」杜若露出了既好奇又害怕冒犯的眼神、試探地探出腦袋。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuJGYw6g1S
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9Z4dyTEv3
紫藤思考地垂下了眼簾幾秒。而再次睜開眼時，紫藤已經將目光放到了不知遙遠的何處。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0udyFqUXH
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eH30d26Bl
「媽媽他——」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsTySHSMgw
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEALSYC2j3c
以這句話做為開場白後，紫藤便將那些早已被自己翻到泛黃的回憶給拿了出來。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbzplqQIjb
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCDOTRXOg2
小時候，紫藤最常從街上的大叔大嬸嘴聽到的一句話就是「跟媽媽很像」。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyh3Ne6Mqv
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN36Eo2uqJE
同樣有著一頭的黑色長髮、話也同樣不怎麼多。而唯一不同的，就是媽媽是個非常堅強的女性，總是用那粗糙而修長的手把紫藤給攬在身後。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaU4Sp2D53
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygHdhnsTSm
而媽媽在南區有間小小的、買賣布料的店面，小時候的紫藤最喜歡的就是跟在媽媽後頭一起做生意。儘管有時候會因為笨手笨腳而挨其他大叔大嬸的罵，但那卻是紫藤最為快樂的一段時光。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs6E3Hejqw
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeezj2CN1HW
只是在紫藤逐漸長大後，媽媽卻漸漸不希望紫藤跟著自己，而想要把紫藤託付給學校。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZUSkawdqS
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAEm3OtXQH
但紫藤一點都不喜歡學校。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamKwLkZWXj
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX26tFc3htu
比起那些吵吵鬧鬧又喜歡惡作劇的小孩子，紫藤更喜歡跟在可靠卻寡言的媽媽後頭，幫忙結帳、整理或是裁剪布料。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVE9h3gvMr
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOn5dunudI
對當時的紫藤而言，媽媽這麼做就好像是想要把自己給拋棄一樣。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9upTYmqSG
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppzMEyOOs1
於是紫藤頭一次跟媽媽吵架了。那是一場紫藤單方面地對著媽媽出氣的架，從頭到尾媽媽都只是靜靜地傾聽著紫藤的任性，偶爾像在思考著什麼地低下頭來。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVivpS7qoB8
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkEVVoT8iy
而在那之後，媽媽就再也沒有要紫藤去上學了。只是摸摸紫藤的頭以後，就像以前一樣，讓磕磕絆絆的紫藤跟在自己的後頭做生意。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vH8POEYJA
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1G49Kz6OYW
嗯，這樣就夠了。那時的紫藤只有這麼單純的滿足。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFTmGy7gYM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxMU2v2MH7
然而這樣的日子持續不久。在一個秋天的傍晚、鉛炭鎮發生了一起極其嚴重的意外。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtTHeSZTin
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAuM4GyQaq
那是一起倒塌事件。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5OvpJtcsb
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mqHiqza7H
由於鉛炭鎮的樓房蓋的十分緊密，因此只要一棟樓倒塌，便極容易引發連鎖效應。那起倒塌事件就現在的記載，足足有將近二十棟的樓房倒塌、傷亡數更是難以記載。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYT9XtosXm
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIFm6JdETD
雖然沒有受到倒塌事件的直接傷害，但媽媽的店面卻因此全毀，讓兩人頓時失去了幾乎所有的財產。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmb2ypv5GO
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvhtLKw2Xf
那之後就如紫藤所說，媽媽為了生存而選擇向沙華會借貸。在那一年裡，媽媽幾乎從未闔眼休息、只為了賺回損失的財產。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0PgnvXYGL
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu904hSD9Bt
那時的媽媽早已面容枯槁。而殘忍地將其心力、金錢、生命盡數奪走的惡意，正是沙華會。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJYcg5BSeE
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGrYKsLXLr
「……我會找到給墨駒這個戒指的人。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwUblKtHVA
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyqYd0FIZ6
收起回憶，紫藤再次握緊了戒指。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPQczTrh7e
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHsGclESuf
「然後，殺了他。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7hIY7kIFs
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrt3JsaAxFr
紫藤的眼神猶如熾火，沒有一分一毫的搖曳。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSnpFHn9v9
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTF7sh96Zf
但只不過幾秒，便很快地萎靡了下來。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8RkckvhkF
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcB5THfeyr
「可是、我卻下不了手。」紫藤無力地鬆開了手：「不管怎麼樣……我都沒辦法像杜若妳那樣。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeEdoBIvyj
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7Mq1sny1h
明知道沙華會是惡，紫藤卻無法真的對那群敗類下殺手。也許正是因為那時媽媽遭到殺害的畫面烙印得太過深刻，紫藤才會下意識地抑制著、不讓那副景象再次出現吧。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExiKbRUznr
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbB9npA9sf
而自己的這份軟弱，既沒有人可以幫助紫藤克服，也不會有人能夠理解——除了杜若。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5K9asjCeM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySTAPoSziA
「原來、這就是紫藤想要跟我一起行動的原因呀。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQ4vS2sQhl
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjH1PY9yq6
「……嗯。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lIjXYVAhi
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2IWbZyGwF
那時見到的杜若是如此純粹，就好像一把剛從水中淬出的刀刃般，不帶著任何一絲污穢。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEndHMFNvAE
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mQiPBMEdz
紫藤深信，這就是自己向那些骯髒禽獸復仇的楔子。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4FCa8BnvR
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFjb2YBRDX
這就是足以斬斷自己心頭那朵紅花的白刃。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1PCwPsisM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIFxxFmplw
「……杜若妳呢？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRl1GVIPd1
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm40GTDl9se
紫藤拾起快要滿溢的情感，回望了杜若那如新月般的雙眸。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPx4Af0Ztwv
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMaOUGEUO3
「又是為什麼……會開始當殺手？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eCqotnIxJ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSx7gL0zwg
剛才、杜若確實說過想要請鎮裡最好的醫生，但杜若看起來並不像是患有什麼嚴重疾病或是殘缺的樣子。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKmf6MxWAY
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIib7cmPYT
聽見紫藤的疑問，杜若就好像是在思考、也像是在害怕似地垂下了眼簾。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfS8U5TX4P4
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZ1hyn1Mmx
「紫藤……不會生氣吧？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTh5E1qf1o
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8W8Gq9VhOD
杜若果然還在意著那時自己的衝動。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Vyvx3LqOd
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBaRhHmuhr
但如果是要請醫生，怎麼樣也不會是做不好的事吧？紫藤這麼想著，舉起沒受傷的手摸了摸杜若的頭頂。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7KPlwgob2
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76jbkvQeYx
「不會。」紫藤堅定地說：「我保證。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4WDWMaknb
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uXagsLiHd
等到紫藤緩緩收起手後，杜若才按著胸口，下定決心地開口。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZajxzHqBiY
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4P0SF5Tygp
「……我想要救陶壺叔。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTg0dkfD0zW
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlOHgPIKiP
杜若喃喃吐出的回答令紫藤感到十分意外。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHc91ZDO23
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuidmSl042Z
之前見到陶壺叔確實是在北大街，但陶壺叔本人看上去並沒有多大的病痛呀？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKiG2Rn7BA
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7NHPm193Q
就好像發現了紫藤的疑惑，杜若幽幽地繼續說道：582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGStzJK94xq
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrtJmuwIgY
「陶壺叔生的是一種會讓身體漸漸沒辦法動的病。醫生說，雖然現在只有手指，但很快就會變成手、腳、身體……最後是心臟。只要過不了四年，陶壺叔就會被那種病給殺死了。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SzMZZapen
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8r0L67yr8d
全身慢慢就會不能動的病？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0USy0TgAp
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLoLdBABey
這種病紫藤是頭一次聽見。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAPECE2CNX
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZWMTANSW5
「我也偷偷問了很多醫生，但他們都說那是一種沒辦法治好的病。明明是這樣，但陶壺叔從來都沒跟我說過、還一直都笑著裝作沒事。直到我不小心聽到其他醫生跟白鵑提到陶壺叔，我才知道陶壺叔一直都瞞著我。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJh15gGdmO
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQjnqhhU2J
「現在陶壺叔已經沒辦法走很長的路、也不太能拿重的東西了。」杜若的口氣變得哀傷起來，卻也有一份同等重量的不甘心。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91kKNnYtdN
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tiQFYL3MR
「我明明也想要幫忙陶壺叔的，可是、我卻不知道自己到底該怎麼做才好——因為就連醫生都沒辦法了嘛。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzi88ufa38
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPT4g9Lm6A
杜若的笑只看得見無力。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPyPxYvftl
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh93MwgCtOg
「直到有天，狐狸告訴我說她有辦法，但前提就是要幫忙她去殺掉那些人。所以，狐狸才發給了我這把槍、還有手機。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9lCCcIdcY
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoz7pqhFT7H
到這裡，杜若便沒有繼續說下去了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaruOZDbts
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaRDhjkSo6
並不是因為仇恨，也不是因為利益，而只是單單地想要為某人而付出。杜若的理由就跟個性一樣是如此單純、甚至令紫藤的胸口刺痛。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPaZ6TX8df
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgchSnGI7K
然而，紫藤卻忍不住想要質疑的念頭。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYl7c0rbUv
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Q1Q6lJnRK
「那個狐狸、真的就這麼值得相信嗎？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlOgTPa6If
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHEsH5pHgt
如果就連鎮裡最優秀的人都沒辦法了，狐狸又怎麼可能醫好陶壺叔的病？再者，就算殺死的是沙華會的人，讓還只是女孩的杜若去持槍犯險本身就很荒謬。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZjmlGRn76
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5c5KcJ9K05
「……狐狸一直都對我很好呀。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixprdNQF2Q
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDaxeVxSPC
杜若笑了。卻讓人分不清那是真的笑容、還是在故作堅強，讓紫藤的鼻子裡無聲地滑過一陣酸楚。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijHurN89TN
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZ5njaA9oI
「所以，我還是相信狐狸。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZTNErj9AH
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78OoLSuxiE
杜若就好像在對自己喊話似地緊緊握起拳頭，但小小的手中、有的卻只有虛無。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVKjTv82me
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3m6M1Fyba
也許這麼說太過自以為是，但紫藤從這道笑容裡看到的並不是想要相信、而是不得不相信。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqr05fWZkJ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55hwYzCMYN
只因為狐狸的許諾是杜若的最後一絲曙光。所以杜若除了抓住它以外也別無他法——僅僅就只是如此而已。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jjNWBzocy
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9PO4OlPdl
哪怕、就算那道光芒是朝自己射出的子彈也一樣。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RgOfm4afM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF56BLCjkld
紫藤也曾望著母親的背影被偽裝成曙光的惡火給吞噬殆盡。但只因為如此，就可以不負責任地說聲「放棄吧」把一切希望給澆熄嗎？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqF8jBL1Id5

這怎麼可能。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFJ7qmRZlW
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfe6x6eWe2Q
沒有人知曉光芒的後頭是陽光亦或是惡火，但倘若停止腳步、也只會在黑暗消逝。無論是誰，追逐光芒都是與生俱來的本能。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZCx1OJA9y
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrnTfTjdwe
看著杜若緊握的手，紫藤便不捨地伸出手、略顯生硬地鑽進了那冰涼而纖弱的掌心。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPEvh0VaLu
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOauxlsGxm
也許，杜若一直都是握著這樣飄渺晃蕩的希望走來，但起碼現在、紫藤能夠確實地握住杜若。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSYcJEXnI5
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqy6pTtuXeh
如果杜若前進的方向是惡火，那紫藤就要在最近的地方拉住杜若。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUHiKrkIYt
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1tb4fxAUM
察覺到掌心的柔軟，杜若看著紫藤靦腆地一笑。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAQRlREYxi
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp3HjOsXVx
轉動手腕、解開五指，那份只屬於兩人相握時的溫熱便從掌心蔓延到了指縫582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8qnEm3RxK
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbN3YWdaTZ0
「但就算這樣，我也還是想自己去試試看。」經過短暫的沉澱，杜若再次充滿生氣地抬起頭來。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tYkdviXOe
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SRSwu5GUB
「我想只要有夠多的錢的話，也許就可以把大家一起找來、找出能夠馬上醫好陶壺叔的辦法了！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Go7Gg1nAs
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmT0cFuSpK
剛才籠罩著的陰鬱被一掃而空，杜若看著紫藤，露出了開朗的笑容。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZpJyuoNFx
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDBYsZqEGn
「不過，果然還是不能夠靠沙華會的人呢。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfPShtc4Qi
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJgFWELAG0
經過剛才被反擊的經驗，讓兩人都對這點有了更多的共識。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BIrq4wCFu
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17pM9KyA1S
說了句「話說回來」後，杜若就一轉話鋒、向紫藤問道：582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeolaE1PkPu
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNfVU8RVDb
「紫藤想要殺掉的人又是誰呀？紫藤還記得嗎？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEdvcS7CLL
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0as8SL9mFv
這問題讓紫藤才想起自己從沒有跟杜若——不、甚至是從沒有跟任何人說過這件事。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG2RvHWdcm
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFrtvYqSV7
「是一個……在脖子後面紋著白色線條的沙華會紋身的人。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0dLcHdA53
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQirGd9LUFr
從腦海深處的角落翻出這片景象。那人在殺害媽媽時，紫藤只有一瞬間記下了那個至今都從未看見第二次的特殊紋身。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3w5M2kp2Q
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiS7kL4S0EW
「沙華會的紋章幾乎都是鮮紅色的、有白色條紋的紋身……我就只見過那麼一次。但不管我怎麼找、那個人卻就好像消失了一樣，再也沒有出現過。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtzNnhWQuN
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreGMoE589V
而唯一有可能知道的墨駒已經被殺了，但紫藤並不感到後悔。比起狡獪的他們，紫藤更寧願靠自己的手去搜索。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg08bbjTjAN
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9OA3EAhjX
「這樣的話，我也來幫忙吧！」杜若自告奮勇地舉高手：582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOq7KOqmrZ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4NFq3SNlZ
「兩個人一起找絕對比較快的！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1PxkSgHYW
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHXJcEsVBh
杜若的模樣、讓紫藤晚了一步才發現自己說錯了話。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZs3dqItMjD
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKe0SfrKlw
紫藤默默地低下頭、沉聲回答。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaICA0XqG2O
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hl0pgGWEc
「……不用那樣。我……我自己就夠了。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHSn8dsOW0
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzDFIRoOyZ
這冷淡的回答讓杜若頓時像被潑了水的貓咪似地一愣。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8UG10bF43
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhSpU9m6ou
「可是、紫藤不是說到現在都……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWZJdCzPa8
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmubc3vdr8K
「這本來就是我自己的事。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYHaCOgRUZJ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8R5UFvCSjm
就算杜若能夠輕鬆地下殺手，但自己的復仇跟杜若是兩回事。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOBeIgjwsl
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBBedoftia
紫藤很清楚自己的眼前只有惡火。而單單只是殺手的任務就已經足夠危險，杜若根本沒有必要為此承擔這些危險。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4pt69vbUl
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKqxDGsqm0
「那要是紫藤遇到危險怎麼辦！」倏地，杜若站起身、提高音量582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTuvfQl1xf
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcrbeBK05o
「我就是為了保護自己，才會去學習要怎麼搏鬥。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezCyEq9tFs
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHGKIutRCy
紫藤明白杜若的擔憂。但紫藤正是為了不讓自己在完成復仇前先被吞沒，才用盡了心力去磨練自己。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovLJrZnQ4F
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G5H5CpLV5
「可是、假如對方有槍、假如遇到像今天一樣的事……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1qHiL2RQa
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2RSpu56WU
「我是不會讓自己被殺死的。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfg9M3Wakge
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6ZnRTgUEZ
「紫藤明明就傷成這樣、還說這種話……！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECgIMBcOeR
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMHOJIE3Zq
看見紫藤一副無所謂的模樣，杜若更是焦急到話都說不清楚了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhs68bgkqFv
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ljMm501gd
紫藤沒能給出杜若期待的回應。卻還是於心不忍地輕握住了杜若的手。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjjx0upveg
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmy8R22QLTP
杜若雖然想甩開，但卻在一半就失去了力氣。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMt0RE6uJP
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqbc52si0N
「明明、明明紫藤也硬是摻進了我的事情，現在卻又說這種話、這樣真的太不公平了……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarCYSYTLI0
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvy9FIFv8Hq
杜若像個鬧彆扭的孩子一樣發起脾氣，但鬧彆扭的人卻總是最認真的。也因此，紫藤才無從反駁。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKDDX2Ibeu
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX5ZCNbbmj
是啊，明明就是自己先不講理地要杜若帶著自己的，這樣又有什麼資格拒絕杜若呢？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfoFXRfM8p
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhQxCuzz9d
但就算不公平也好，紫藤之所以握著杜若的手，絕非是要杜若陪著自己跳進火海。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahbABXwJyI
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xBYaWT5So
最後，紫藤還是用了奸詐的說法。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaONmCMl0b
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iLFkhMbv7
「我跟陶壺叔約定過，說不會讓妳受傷了。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWzhE0yDj7
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdbjbC5QLS
「那難道紫藤要我看著妳受傷嗎？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxR154LayD
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuQxWgnsjN
雖然夾雜著鼻音、但這句話卻如此強而有力。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NnYaNOuCn
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDs70N3PXMc
在八年前的那個夜晚、紫藤也是那樣地看著母親被一刀刀殘殺致死——明明注視著、卻什麼也做不了的無力是多麼令人痛苦，紫藤比任何人都還要明白。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIrtW5GM5t
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMIyd3CBXf
杜若也正是因為這樣的痛苦，才選擇了這條看似荒謬的道路。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaamd3R5oxo
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwPNZPtjPI
而紫藤打算再在杜若的身上再添一層相同的痛苦嗎？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoR6E4aDLZ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriYSZACU5Y
紫藤無法回答，只是沉默地別開了視線。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kEry1v6QB
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FUs6QJ0Pu
看見杜若受傷，自己會感到痛苦。而看見自己受傷，杜若會感到痛苦。然而若是因此什麼也不做，又有誰能夠替枉死的母親報仇雪恨？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfwRUfTsJ3
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHWS33ZgKc
哪條路都是崎嶇，哪條路也都是痛苦。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3IFF8ZpcM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHSyHOZ6h7
如今，在這條路上有個願意走到身旁攜手並進的人，又為何不欣然接受就好？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr87xAJZcXn
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOzGfWvejq
只因為就連接受也是痛苦吧。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKFppuNqld
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEd9UY7xDzi
但、當初不就是因為明白自己沒辦法獨自走完腳下的路，所以才會自顧自地跟在杜若後頭不是嗎？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5YhtqATEt
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Hgpq2gH0Z
如果說想要把什麼東西給握在手裡、就免不了被刺出鮮血。那麼起碼受傷的方式可以交由彼此來抉擇。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRuwG5BAm6
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkUPIQSF21
思及至此，紫藤才慢慢地放鬆了手中的力道。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzDRc7hZrJ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VPDkCnFP5
「答應我、要先保護好妳自己。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yOtsE0kxH
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZfTUDDz1E
紫藤不帶一絲玩笑地注視著杜若的雙眼，而看見紫藤的神情，杜若才終於破涕為笑。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8F8hmibBeR
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYsK2yLwMd
「可是，紫藤會保護我的吧？這樣我的份不就用不到了？」杜若歪著頭反問。然後扣緊了紫藤安放在腿上的手。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYI9QYJpBr
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvBPBVqQ9Z
「所以，我的份就用來保護紫藤吧！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbQe8i4ovz
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wcqQvq9YQ
紫藤雖沒有點頭，卻還是回望著對方微微笑，回握住指縫間的柔軟。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRai0SVLoaV
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMoiZh7BeE
「喔喔！紫藤笑了耶！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyEfyj0yaF
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjdLpeQqh9
頭一次看見紫藤的笑容，讓杜若欣喜地舉高手，卻不小心拉起了紫藤負傷的前臂而使紫藤臉色一緊。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltyAnUL3sj
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr0AK8DQ8Q
「哇啊啊——！對不起！」杜若立刻慌張地放下手來。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2iZbaHX9T
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6M6NwWMsy
疼痛雖然還沒散去，但紫藤還是發自內心地笑了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMhpyBePY8
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZTpUM49R1
「……對了！」這時，杜若突然靈機一動地眼神一亮：「不知道可不可以請狐狸幫紫藤找找看呢？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VYFOHjfaQ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZYnx5HpNl
「咦？」這提議讓紫藤也感到意外地眨了眨眼。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aHkw87dg1
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOlBz9flPb
「雖然是我自己猜的……不過狐狸應該很擅長找人吧。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8Hkly4APw
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErijjIqArs
應該說如果那個狐狸不擅長，就不可能精確地知道目標的出沒地點與時間吧。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhHS84gYPE
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cANKFXN9P
紫藤確實沒想到這個方法——不，更應該說是刻意忽略掉了才是。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BgijfvFsx
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYAha75hYM
紫藤還是沒辦法相信一個就連臉都沒見過、還讓杜若做這麼危險的事情的人。把這樣重要的任務託付給對方真的妥當嗎？光是想的就有種不踏實感。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlLBsqVRJb
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhwzumLjzW
不過，如果那個狐狸願意幫忙，也許真的會是一大助力。比起自己的脾氣，不是更應該去想要怎樣才能早一步替母親報仇雪恨才對嗎？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5r43kvuF5M
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEG4AbqDsG
自己尋覓這麼多年來都毫無所獲，而現在就有一個或許能夠跨出一大步的機會，又怎麼能夠放棄？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1ZEgOBZfm
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49yIFad47w
「那……可以幫我跟狐狸說說看嗎？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsx5e5swnBe
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tPh9NHdOM
「當然呀，這是我提議的嘛～」杜若自信地抱起手臂、挺起胸膛。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjFlg8AMfd
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTClw2tykN
就在這時，紫藤注意到了杜若的手肘與膝蓋上也有著斑斑的擦傷。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMnizSJ5jI
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiOzxoJ7Vn
是被墨駒踢倒的時候撞上的吧。雖然不比紫藤嚴重，但印在杜若柔嫩的肌膚上、還是格外叫人心疼。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJy7kvRiVyc
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuP5Ma2nGdk
「妳的傷……換我幫妳吧。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa74quEXrT
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUx1MNdUzys
被紫藤一說，杜若才發覺似地看了看自己的傷，露出一派輕鬆的笑容。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKd7vXhT7t
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNqlTHEiX4
「我這點傷才沒事啦～」說完，杜若從醫療箱裡頭翻出了幾條止血貼布遞給紫藤。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgKzC5tAVh
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhAcSdqFXw
「貼這個應該就可以了。紫藤就幫我一下吧。」說完，杜若也爬到床上坐到了一旁。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVftKuTaAT
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNewWlh3Htg
「撕得開來嗎？」杜若看著紫藤有些僵硬的動作，有所顧慮地問。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJD3JCK5wyA
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kpgIooHZj
「動作不需要太大，沒問題的。」慢慢地撕開膠帶後，紫藤往杜若受傷的手肘上貼去、神情專注。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVy1RRvybgO
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPk8Va5MQXC
「……好了。換膝蓋吧。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhG1Bw45oz
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCofvwmH0mT
輕輕撫平皺起的部分，紫藤這才發現杜若一動也不動地盯著自己。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DAMzQCRtn
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gmLVuIkcK
「我臉上有什麼嗎？」紫藤不解地偏過頭。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPvHkq0cKr
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoByg8AU3r
「唔嗯、沒有呀。」盯得出神的杜若這才回過神來地搖搖頭，靦腆地說道：582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsfSpBA0tX
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfv1czl6Kd
「只是覺得紫藤認真的模樣……果然好帥喔。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8fVM3lXKT
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvxLD4ALko
突如其來的稱讚，令紫藤頓時耳根一熱。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡli1KMPE8Yc
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCzqxTASve
在道場偶爾也會有人這麼稱讚紫藤——儘管紫藤從不這麼覺得——但明明是同樣的誇獎，為什麼從杜若的嘴巴裡說出來感覺就是不一樣呢？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCOYOmKMv7
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinFWm8K4DH
「我、我……」不知道該怎麼回應的紫藤搓著發熱的耳朵，無所適從地左右張望，最後才低下頭、用著連自己都快聽不到的聲音悄聲地說了句：582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKbUKBMi1c
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78wyosGHPo
「謝謝……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTxVKdqvSt
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPq8lq7rQ1
「嗯？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwPqqclA6A
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiQgeM1xu6
「沒、沒有……！」紫藤彷彿像要掩飾過去拉高音量，匆忙地接著說道：「比起那些、還有膝蓋的傷……！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcH3ogk3QyG
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyQCuHDCEH
杜若雖然有些不明白，卻也覺得今天表情豐富的紫藤很有趣，就沒有多問、聽話地打直了雙腳。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IG5pctNBS
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3cgFB72zu
杜若的膝蓋上仍沾著一些汙血，那道傷口印在上頭就好像是件純白禮服上的爛泥一樣顯眼——但就算沾上了爛泥，氣質本身也不會輕易改變。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdmF1HMQNt
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhFXeA9AzX
雖然怎樣也稱不上是修長，但杜若的腿卻讓紫藤不禁想到了幼貓那短巧可愛的前腳，讓人忍不住想要伸手捏個一把。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm66fHfKc54
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vtDZPih6l
不對不對、現在可不是做那種事的時候。不要再想些不正經的事了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5FVByNgbb
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDV8ValtGNa
「稍微……稍微彎起來一點。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgOSQ6u399
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFA7THg9iHV
「這樣？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeFCzduniE
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33IDydlOck
為了不讓自己再胡思亂想，紫藤支吾地說。一會才終於定下心來把貼布貼上了膝蓋的傷口。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnorbagahYX
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATH8xptwFy
「……嗯！這樣就可以了吧！」杜若點點頭，滿意地打量著自己手上腳上的貼布。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUrLKnR4by
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldAyP5a5hJ
於是紫藤收起醫療用品，起身將箱子放回原位。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6qzpbkX9b
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9siUmCc8K
「對了，剛才紫藤提到的事件……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlW2IuPj6s
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWF7oulrcnD
就在要踏出房門的時候，杜若忽然想到了什麼似地開了口。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMBRrOpLov
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK55BBRCuv
「事件、是倒塌事件嗎？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDN2iufCpz
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6vTtGpz1y
「唔、嗯……」杜若好像沒聽清楚似地，只把頭點到了一半，便默默地垂下眼簾。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7uExhra7Y
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbZ8m9uDm8
「怎麼了嗎？」看見杜若的模樣，令紫藤擔心地走了回去。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eIl6Fhz6F
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTICJiBRca
但杜若沒有做出回應，只是像在思考般地沉默了一會後，才撓撓頭髮抬起了頭來。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKDWvijEzO
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbFf2WLymY
「沒有……沒事的喔！」杜若再次露出一如往常的笑容：「再不睡覺的話明天又要遲到了！還是趕快把東西放回去，然後好好洗澡睡覺吧！」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wFmOQJUru
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllrdBF6sfm
紫藤雖然感到疑惑，卻還是沒有多問地走出了房間。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYGV94xXVD
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VaxtuajUc
回來後、在淋浴間前，兩人看著彼此身上的一塊塊包紮，忽然察覺到了什麼而尷尬地笑了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAbLYkO1Ab
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzYkrn0Oa4
「我們……好像弄錯順序了耶。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinuVuexKiE
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23vkJLPAL6
「……只能用擦的了吧。」紫藤望向手上一大片的暗紅紗布，洩出了一聲嘆息。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnpWSZ4I1w
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8aOTBLdjF
雖然天氣還很炎熱，用擦澡倒也不會著涼，但紫藤現在只有一隻手，想要擦去全身的溼黏感實在是難如登天。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKULX3XFbcm
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDRiluGwfB
杜若也察覺到紫藤有苦難言的模樣，於是悄悄地湊到了紫藤的一旁。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLWVABI9rP
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWysQnEDE8V
「紫藤需要我幫忙嗎？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf6StZOtKt
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFUVpmgGOI
起先紫藤還沒聽懂杜若的意思，但看著杜若站到了自己和淋浴間之間，紫藤才瞬間紅了臉頰。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6cFWYigxo
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlG5lradwiP
「我、我自己來就可以了……」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSQZfRjk0w
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlykSPpZLY
在外頭、紫藤光是露出手臂以外的皮膚都會感到有些憋扭了，更何況是和人坦誠相待，即使是杜若——不、正因為是杜若，紫藤才更在意這點。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAASDrliIU3
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BiQZQSm57
終於，在簡單擦去一身的灰塵與汗濕後，兩人才可以好好地關上燈休息。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogTshAIzmD
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYuEAPJYWV
房間沉入一片黑暗。而在這片熟悉的黑暗當中，卻多了道不同的吐息。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgc2I0UVnF
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNx1c4ITpKP
明明昨天還沒有這麼明顯地感覺到杜若的存在，現在紫藤卻能夠清楚地感覺到對方的呼吸拂過臉頰。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLbOtWsGhA
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtuR4yNdJy
因為說好了，所以剛才也讓杜若用了跟自己一樣的沐浴乳。和草草擦乾污痕的紫藤不同，剛沖過澡的杜若身上香得不可思議。那宛如水果混合了奶油的甜香挾帶著專屬於杜若的微暖體溫，光聞著就令紫藤的胸口發癢。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6MDXHq6pt
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69Eq3IgZ8C
明明是一樣的東西，為什麼用在杜若的身上味道就是完全不同呢？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjpZLDYzTe

「……紫藤。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TF1yPoDAJ
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6p0ABe8IKz
「怎麼了？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcGvczaHAe
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKydefa4Sp
就在紫藤兀自思考時，杜若用著像是隨時會消失在黑暗中的細小聲音、輕聲地喚了紫藤。而在紫藤回問後，杜若沒有馬上回答，只是輕揪住紫藤的衣領，向前挪動身子。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXhoQb7spz
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaUCQzM7Sd
「紫藤說、會一直在我身邊……我可以相信紫藤吧？」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdkp4tMY1B
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyw480WmXe5
那是躲在櫃子裡頭時紫藤為了安撫恐慌的杜若，而下意識脫口而出的承諾。也許是四周的黑暗、讓杜若又想起了那時的感覺吧。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4E3pljBW2K
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2io7sEGkx
紫藤伸出手輕蓋在了杜若的後腦，卻沒有辦法就這麼點頭。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw73TKnGwfI
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThdkrmnXuB
就連明天，紫藤都不知道自己是不是還能夠像現在躺在這張床上了。那又何況是更遙遠的以後呢？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuRM6fXnZW
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tJD7czNzX
這世上難以實現的事情多如繁星，即使是伸手能夠觸及的光芒，也不乏混濁的惡火，而自己選擇的前路更是如此。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZBxTsYc9n
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTr4EVC7F5e
既然難以實現，那就不該給予承諾。面對再也單純不過的杜若，這樣的輕浮是種殘酷。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH877ZuFL0Z
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqzaJBvwkI
可是要是因此就什麼也不能夠承諾、什麼也不能夠相信，不也是另一種殘酷嗎？582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZBNBW27Do
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNe4jZccAK
確實，紫藤不能夠保證前路的光明不是槍口的閃焰，也不能夠成為驅趕黑暗的陽光。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7hpvLfG5j
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDVfof926r
不過紫藤現在就在這裡。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡms8Rm1mKXc
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNzdOCKLP6
無論腳下的是光明還是黑暗，只要紫藤還能夠伸出手，就不會讓杜若握起的手中僅有一撮虛幻。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuO4fsGQelH
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡki15sQvBwP
於是、紫藤探出指頭，用指腹輕貼上了杜若的臉頰。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1r3rqMFZ0J
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDV6zzDiEG9
「……我會試著做到的。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LTx6sYMXT
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6l1l1hXP7
「什麼嘛……」聽見這不乾脆的回答，杜若便沒輒地笑了。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdMU79utZN
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRuzXN2KQR
「不過……我相信紫藤喔。」582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0tgV8b5so
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl70ub2gbgy
不給紫藤辯解的餘地。說完，杜若就這麼微笑著闔上眼，沉沉地往夢鄉走去。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0h6vDITKM
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezX3MxaKKy
窗外打進的微光逐漸照亮紫藤的視野，杜若雪白的髮絲在輪廓的邊緣透著薄光，就宛如隨風飄逸的紗絹一樣。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEJlECAnly
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOAkscgGQQ
從呼吸聲聽來，杜若大概是在睡著時就會蜷起身子的類型——就連這點也跟貓很像啊，紫藤不禁調侃地想。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjycl7kwgZs
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXghbjBV5t
疼痛令紫藤沒辦法把杜若給攬進懷中，但紫藤卻仍湊近了身子，把那道溫熱的呼吸給小心地挨近胸口。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oexO4JAFe
582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEudtAJj9x9
而杜若只是既像在回應、又像在撒嬌般地發出一聲夢囈，把身子更加地縮了進去。582Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoQys6ATEa
