我不發一語，看著倒在旁邊的這個已經變成屍體的男人。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvc0WI4Arm4

根據過往經驗，有人在面前死去固然不是很舒服，但意外的是我對於他的死沒什麼特別的感覺。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKpyOubads

我看著眼前這個像是不曾見過面的陌生人。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXhqzBSt6G
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMde9YMg1M
能面不改色地將殺這個字掛在嘴邊，代表我記憶裡那個天真的穗香早已死去。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l5z4Vg3WP

 197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVvE0qPCbk
「夠了？妳不是充分運用了妳的『特權』，作為神命村唯一的特例在外界生活嗎？縱然資料顯示妳嚴重無法適應而有過自我了斷的念頭，但皆為妳自己的選擇，村子未曾對妳做出任何干涉。」197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8sVO89V9o

「冬笑是──神？」197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6vgGLxrcA

我簡直不敢相信自己的耳朵。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ153tlFFtcF
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92Cq2nZEWA
因為一連串錯誤而在植物上進行錯誤的胎兒之夢的冬笑，在我離開村子的這段空白期間，居然被村子信奉為神嗎。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyq9EOJAAf

我終於忍不住上前抓住她的肩膀，和服的領口被我扯開，露出她那毫無血色的蒼白鎖骨。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDThtoneowc

穗香輕輕地笑了起來。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZBoslUQwV
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh887rsDBAO
這是重逢後她第一次表達身為人類的感情，但我卻不知道那笑容之中究竟包含多少無盡的絕望。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wP5MuiNWB

197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjANBlHtry
  既然妳不願意回來，我也只是作為妳的替代，暫時將就用著的次級品而已。所以現在只要妳有意願，隨時都可以頂替我成為教主，但那也要妳願意通過成為教主所需要的儀式才行。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0zxGA3ysR
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQk687S8A85
  儀式的部份必須由身處滿是食物跟神滓的坑洞裡面開始。啊，就是在廣場上殺了許多人的那些，來夏的父親當時也在坑洞裡面呢。平常啊，神滓若是沒有接獲神的指示，就只不過是擁有人類劣等的本性，將慾望表露無遺的醜陋生物。」197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4TTUCqlR2

我說不下去。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNHhv0S5Gx

197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KdTBVMdUQ
  剛開始的時候，我可是無時無刻都在詛咒妳，但過了兩三天後就完全放棄了，因為到後來究竟是痛苦還是愉悅早就分不太清楚，這副軀殼的本能反應還真是下賤對吧？197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqAC1Hgluh
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4C1UOJ2UR
  從那時候起我就感受不太到喜怒哀樂了，少了大部分感情的影響，才能做出對村子最正確的選擇吧？不過，雖然心中沒什麼恨，但至少還記得報仇的具體作法。」197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGsX4z19sK

「果然村長……是被妳殺害的嗎？」197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9UwQFUewy

「嗯，我成為教主以後，照著跟我一樣的方式丟進去了。不到兩個小時就發瘋死掉了呢，還真是可笑的老鬼。」197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6IVdpEXtM
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWhqqu35os
像是想起愉悅的事情似而嬌豔地笑了，那模樣有如帶有劇毒的花蕾。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwaCVrVSca
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NccAU5YoT
我無法想像過去她所遭受的待遇有多絕望，現在的我對沒有拯救到當時的她一事而感到萬分自責，但卻連分擔當時的她的千萬分之一痛苦都做不到。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFlxV0yQtK

我幾近崩潰地嘶吼。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD71uEEq66r

在外界活得非常痛苦的我，就連回到神命村也找不到任何一點容身之處，連唯一的朋友都變成我完全不認識的模樣。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHKTnnuIQw

突然間，穗香張開了全盲的雙眼正對著我。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZgs9Z9ERL
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrhIZlFQ87
那是一雙毫無對焦能力，呈現潰散的淡色瞳孔，而我只在人偶上看過這種不帶任何感情色彩的玻璃眼珠。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySrxGLhrLz
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fzsnzfYVK
然而，那卻是跳脫了教主的身份，由十七歲起便已支離破碎到不復存在，那名為桃井穗香的朋友碎片所提給我的建言。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90uqUhGsnU

對於所信奉之神的眷屬，教主不被賦予權限過問，也不被允許發表意見。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAj9rEJ97eV
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pjQLtyOYE
我向著那無法違背殘忍命運的摯友道了謝，起身準備離開會客室。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeEuCkJG4L

糾結於未經開發的地面上的樹根洋溢著生命的喜悅。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqE4lf9Oyls
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oRWbyfsXM
沒有地圖或指南針，單憑五感就想要前往理想鄉，在旁人聽起來簡直就是癡人說夢。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnQgrxs9AL
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaOMbDmf3G
但是我對於穗香的話語堅信不疑。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFraa5HHR4r

她說，只要順著歌聲前進就會抵達，她所棲息的那個世界。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0eKd9Jdq1

踏上旅途時我記得還是白天，只不過一眨眼的時間就來到了傍晚。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCBAMmqNsB
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0oksbYr4J
就在此時，我聽到了熟悉的歌聲。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZlNVrPy1q
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgI9zne3Ej6
旋律是我小時候經常唱給妹妹聽的，來自外婆家鄉的歌謠。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzDBlW28r4
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCbpJPCfXy
我順著歌聲的方向，中途因為受夠了難走到不行的皮靴，我乾脆直接脫下來丟掉。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwyZ2hSlHR

像是蒲公英般的孢子輕輕漂浮在四周，微弱的橙白光芒順著她呼吸的節奏而忽明忽暗。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIOSpjy05g
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zBBToEcaR
在少女的腿部的位置附近，有著一個個如同卵般的人形物體，以深埋其中的頭部與她相連。那就是理想鄉的構成基礎，將所有人的腦部串連起來，進而匯集成為一個永恆的夢世界，這類似網路的原理讓我聯想到過去曾在書上看過的某種魚類。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOALxQSU1rM

如今已邁入社會多年的我，早就喪失了那份對未來充滿著憧憬的自信。197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhzewemPOB
