我們兩個的計畫是後天晚上十點,也就是大人們入睡後這時段逃離村子。288Please respect copyright.PENANAYsJS1KP0eQ
288Please respect copyright.PENANAHg3RtmOVmt
由於事關重大,為了完全確保不能出任何差錯,耕一說會在私底下和穗香解釋清楚,要我多擔心自己的狀況要緊。288Please respect copyright.PENANAxtDXYfkRaK
我從晚飯過後就著手準備行李,要準備的東西蠻多的,光是衣服之類的必需品就已經一大堆,再加上耕一剛剛開給我的清單,似乎還要有露宿野外的最糟打算。所以我只好捨棄自己的包包,將父親過去經常背著出門,容量高達八十五公升登山背包來使用。288Please respect copyright.PENANAFPxWREJ1JG
288Please respect copyright.PENANAlNOB6xoPon
中途意外地在隱藏口袋裡發現了父親過去在大學任教的教師證,在這之前我從未聽說過他有大學教授的資格,看樣子大人們確實隱藏了不少真相,但真的有必要為了這村子做到這種程度嗎?我一面在心裡反覆咀嚼著,一面照著清單收拾房間裡的東西。288Please respect copyright.PENANAbCCguv07fR
288Please respect copyright.PENANApe3pQxZYQ5
288Please respect copyright.PENANASNX1RZDS4h
「……奇怪?外面是發生了什麼事情嗎?」288Please respect copyright.PENANAHYiugF7aXr
288Please respect copyright.PENANAkz05PjLlD1
從不久前開始,透過玻璃窗隱約聽到外面傳來快速走過的大人們交談的聲音。288Please respect copyright.PENANAZWkSOTGrb8
288Please respect copyright.PENANAF2OhDyIZtq
由於我房間位於二樓,又是在最裡面的角落,根本沒辦法確認門前的狀況,但聽起來人數似乎不少的樣子。288Please respect copyright.PENANAM6a2D3VzvF
288Please respect copyright.PENANAmHlYVOlj7k
我抬頭看了一下時間是九點四十分,理論上應該是他們就寢的時間,因此顯得格外讓人在意。過了幾分鐘後我決定打開窗戶,探出半截身子觀察外面的情況。288Please respect copyright.PENANAJmHlz6Z1dJ
288Please respect copyright.PENANAifXg8SyIdr
然而似乎為時已晚,家門口前似乎沒有人經過了,只見到遠方的廣場那邊燈火通明的景象。288Please respect copyright.PENANA3IG9s7msTX
288Please respect copyright.PENANAt0x7PvLDHQ
……該不會是我和耕一的事情被發現了吧?288Please respect copyright.PENANAbnVWYTzzzx
288Please respect copyright.PENANAD1otW0bpEr
正當我不禁為此而提心吊膽的時候──288Please respect copyright.PENANAU4S0HQfKEk
288Please respect copyright.PENANA9vFoWqAwl8
288Please respect copyright.PENANAycO8i073dD
磅磅磅磅磅。288Please respect copyright.PENANAmGyegyKbIA
288Please respect copyright.PENANAmkArOcadXB
樓下傳來了像這樣急促的敲門聲。288Please respect copyright.PENANAHXncx9sYIz
288Please respect copyright.PENANACzrE2orh8L
隨後傳來了呼喊著我名字的聲音……是耕一沒錯,確認以後我趕緊衝下樓去應門。288Please respect copyright.PENANAPB6UwMwLPL
288Please respect copyright.PENANASG6sp4oMvY
288Please respect copyright.PENANAD15tZKoCRg
「來夏!他們抓到那個怪物了!」288Please respect copyright.PENANAlVfCLrZzaR
288Please respect copyright.PENANAhgbWV5M8Qg
「咦?」288Please respect copyright.PENANADnJMETinlL
288Please respect copyright.PENANA57HqGXRHRQ
才一打開門,穿著厚重外套的耕一就急切地告知我這個令人震驚的消息。288Please respect copyright.PENANAzRMj0LUWC1
288Please respect copyright.PENANAV1tg6QxHzV
……已經抓到了嗎。288Please respect copyright.PENANAvPveBcBklG
288Please respect copyright.PENANA8WnD5mq2h1
老實說,憑著那晚恐怖至極的印象,我完全沒有料想到那個會有被捕獲的可能性。288Please respect copyright.PENANA7Rjtf3uiGe
288Please respect copyright.PENANAw5HVpnsFcX
288Please respect copyright.PENANAfctYqpBWgY
「那個──已經確定是冬笑了嗎?」288Please respect copyright.PENANAbxDGfJXyKY
288Please respect copyright.PENANATtLn2FomJZ
我戰戰兢兢地向耕一確認著。288Please respect copyright.PENANA4yXXWjHlbV
288Please respect copyright.PENANA4COiqwb9SI
288Please respect copyright.PENANA3SBnOf9x7b
「還不知道,所以我才要帶妳過去,不好好做最後確認的話,妳也沒辦法說走就走吧。」288Please respect copyright.PENANA9qaxV7KZKo
288Please respect copyright.PENANA0GeStL2TBM
「……嗯。」288Please respect copyright.PENANA3fwMG2wuKm
288Please respect copyright.PENANAmYXdzQGGkF
我雖然對於親眼確認一事有些猶豫,但還是點了點頭。288Please respect copyright.PENANAfrQxENQNF6
288Please respect copyright.PENANAfn9kctkjBb
在獲得了我的同意後,耕一隨即就直接拉起我的手跑了起來。288Please respect copyright.PENANAW31B9SXv9O
288Please respect copyright.PENANAtcYG8BMXh0
288Please respect copyright.PENANA1GU514VZsD
「等……!門還沒有──」288Please respect copyright.PENANAtomz7rbNc9
288Please respect copyright.PENANA5MygypIqDs
「沒時間管那個了!我們去看一眼之後就回來,不知道為什麼總有不太好的預感。」288Please respect copyright.PENANAagqv2CBWhy
288Please respect copyright.PENANApeMmHUI7nt
「……不好的預感?」288Please respect copyright.PENANA0bvSOkynFE
288Please respect copyright.PENANAIiE8HvAMO7
「我也說不上來,只是我這幾天一直在想,冬笑真的是為了復仇而回來的嗎?」288Please respect copyright.PENANAmHe7G9TH6f
288Please respect copyright.PENANAHYffvNzCuN
「復仇什麼的那不是你說的嗎!?」288Please respect copyright.PENANAEN8sPep3Xb
288Please respect copyright.PENANAY5FcNbvXXp
夜裡的風很大,將我的側髮吹得亂七八糟的。288Please respect copyright.PENANAmqW8GpM8wH
288Please respect copyright.PENANAUGI9WwbpaZ
288Please respect copyright.PENANA2dDDxg1HE8
「對,可是復仇這個舉動在殺死葛城後便達成目的了吧,沒有道理連殘肢都一起帶走吧?」288Please respect copyright.PENANAkcFpCcXN2A
288Please respect copyright.PENANAxsR7D6Y4TJ
「───」288Please respect copyright.PENANAVGPXk4ckP5
288Please respect copyright.PENANAnVfbDTMDj8
對啊,這到底是為什麼?288Please respect copyright.PENANAqhkdpju5Ra
288Please respect copyright.PENANA7LUrmXgN0k
說起來,冬笑沒有攻擊我的原因,真的是因為一點都不恨我嗎?288Please respect copyright.PENANACsTuDP8Ugi
288Please respect copyright.PENANAhXNTGSL0Da
從來沒有試著了解她真正想法,又和殺死她的兇手有著親密的互動,對於這樣失職的姊姊,冬笑真的一點恨都沒有嗎?288Please respect copyright.PENANALyKrvAf1wp
288Please respect copyright.PENANALHkzdEYhp7
288Please respect copyright.PENANAt2mffkhCxU
「來夏,別自顧自地在那邊胡思亂想。」288Please respect copyright.PENANAczNQNkBQIZ
288Please respect copyright.PENANAXkrLYT6lUQ
「可是冬笑她──」288Please respect copyright.PENANASdikgbQ3rn
288Please respect copyright.PENANAH2WGXJDSqJ
「我說這些並不是為了讓妳自我否定,只是我也想弄清楚做個了斷而已。」288Please respect copyright.PENANAXOp9x6aO1W
288Please respect copyright.PENANAEW2HYaBNeB
「我──」288Please respect copyright.PENANAyu1cFobRvF
288Please respect copyright.PENANAxPFYCDVAOQ
「別去想了,不管妳要的是什麼樣的答案,到那裡全都會知道的。」288Please respect copyright.PENANAkh4zo1FFrX
288Please respect copyright.PENANAbOsZAlZwtu
耕一阻止了我繼續說下去,拉著我朝那位於前方半山腰位置的廣場跑去。288Please respect copyright.PENANAIYabZ4JvMY
288Please respect copyright.PENANAYbqaSFDHZo
這時候我第一次察覺到,耕一的手掌不知道從什麼時候開始,已經變得比我還大上許多。288Please respect copyright.PENANAKKNv6mLQRT
288Please respect copyright.PENANAys9ELJlscH
288Please respect copyright.PENANAHFzfPm5OqY
288Please respect copyright.PENANAjeCI8iEGpo
等到我們氣喘呼呼地趕到時,環繞廣場四周的傳統祭典火把正熊熊燃燒著,形成整片的橘紅色光景。288Please respect copyright.PENANATs8AGqllgn
288Please respect copyright.PENANAx00JG1b9tX
燃燒煤油所產生的煙味讓我覺得有點不舒服,但還是跟著耕一身後走進人群裡面。288Please respect copyright.PENANAW9IWC9T8zp
288Please respect copyright.PENANACb18AxrYAt
由於交頭接耳的大人們就像是看著表演似地圍繞一圈,再加上並沒有意料中來得擠,所以我們勉強佔到了看得見整座廣場的位置。288Please respect copyright.PENANAhwYlwVhhrK
288Please respect copyright.PENANA9aZWoljl4u
288Please respect copyright.PENANAukEnETe6ed
「喀喀喀嘰──嘰嘰嘰嘰!」288Please respect copyright.PENANAg4GxQVXGLS
288Please respect copyright.PENANA6XATdPBiEC
位於中央的是拼命想要掙脫繩索的怪物。288Please respect copyright.PENANAw88h17N52b
288Please respect copyright.PENANAVLMr2s9JDn
如今被牢牢綑緊的麻繩所束縛,彎著腰的模樣雖然比我印象中的模樣縮小整整一圈,但基本上沒有多大的出入。288Please respect copyright.PENANAFXBTdPbruw
288Please respect copyright.PENANAWn7XEkeoJA
我拼命地觀察怪物身上的每一處細節,過長且乾癟的四肢,流出綠膿的凹陷眼窩,甚至是那像是樹根盤踞而成的臉部輪廓都仔細評斷了一遍。288Please respect copyright.PENANALAtQ6vgCfX
288Please respect copyright.PENANA9EH0QaOPCS
然而,這個外觀上找不到任何相似之處的怪物,為什麼我會在那晚把她誤認成冬笑呢。288Please respect copyright.PENANA5mxCrYzlCW
288Please respect copyright.PENANAG2kMUaqV89
288Please respect copyright.PENANACwdl4UXtzC
「怎麼樣,來夏,妳還認為這怪物是冬笑嗎?」288Please respect copyright.PENANA5EXY4QfbZM
288Please respect copyright.PENANADjiBJ8YiZe
「我……不知道。」288Please respect copyright.PENANA7H2tST5jeU
288Please respect copyright.PENANA4EIvW3Skej
儘管如此,我還是沒有否定當時的想法。288Please respect copyright.PENANAb5K8pTyBPy
288Please respect copyright.PENANAd1C1cVWtGL
288Please respect copyright.PENANAmrXzTZ1kRb
「還不確定是嗎,但我還是相信妳最初的判斷,妳的直覺一項都很準。話說回來,實際看到這怪物果然還是很驚人。」288Please respect copyright.PENANAqjuVyYrmFB
288Please respect copyright.PENANAZv8XTLjzsg
「嗯。但有個地方好像跟我印象中的不太一樣。」288Please respect copyright.PENANAga6F5D91Pr
288Please respect copyright.PENANAtbDXSSJfdg
因為有點擔憂,我正想向耕一提到那怪物如同懷孕般隆起的腹部時,怪物後方的表演臺上出現了村長的身影,而森叔就站在臺階附近。288Please respect copyright.PENANA03pZiNPjrN
288Please respect copyright.PENANAX62fIY53hr
原本吵雜的討論聲在村長上臺後瞬間就變得鴉雀無聲,所有人就如同往常般對村長充滿著敬畏,沒有人敢開口再多嘴半句話。288Please respect copyright.PENANA6Zsg7wSXQt
288Please respect copyright.PENANA6sFCQRLxdO
288Please respect copyright.PENANA2Cfkbb2Hie
「吾等畢生的夙願,終將在今天向前邁進至雄偉的領域!」288Please respect copyright.PENANAuCfvmd0De2
288Please respect copyright.PENANAHtF0vYLO1f
村長沒有用上任何擴音的裝置,然而與他那駝背的身形不符,充滿能量的嗓音卻足以震撼全場。288Please respect copyright.PENANAIm7BeBb6WD
288Please respect copyright.PENANAhnGrVRigxM
但是……夙願?邁進?領域?村長所說的那些我一個字都聽不懂,只是為什麼聽起來村長他們像是早就知道這怪物存在了一樣?288Please respect copyright.PENANAwcA5kr51DY
288Please respect copyright.PENANAzgzSF1gR6Z
288Please respect copyright.PENANAvNUpLBT0vM
「果然啊……怪物是被他們創造出來的。」288Please respect copyright.PENANAGlhdaDyVHb
288Please respect copyright.PENANAcBt7GGpPwL
耕一在旁邊小聲的自言自語徹底點醒了我。288Please respect copyright.PENANA707lwoyrMy
288Please respect copyright.PENANACnOaCUBRPm
我轉頭看向四周的大人們,每個人的表情都像是浸淫在喜悅中,聚精會神地聽著村長的演說。……背後染上了一股惡寒。288Please respect copyright.PENANAe2nsFg0e62
288Please respect copyright.PENANAY3QAjR7FTk
身處在懷抱希望的人群裡,我突然對此感到懼怕不已,那是與怪物帶來的絕望感截然不同,滿溢出來的愛慕及崇拜簡直到令人作嘔的程度。288Please respect copyright.PENANAN2TSBhvedh
288Please respect copyright.PENANAcAT5JqIiPW
288Please respect copyright.PENANABtfuR1dXHm
「來夏,還走得動嗎?」288Please respect copyright.PENANATc84zAiCBQ
288Please respect copyright.PENANAX5hy3i0hyZ
幾分鐘過後。288Please respect copyright.PENANApdNddeW3oH
288Please respect copyright.PENANAFleaajuhSN
大概是注意到了我的臉色不好,耕一在演講還沒結束前,就抓著我的手肘準備離開。288Please respect copyright.PENANA2FFgAspbcY
288Please respect copyright.PENANAtOfgFwjL5z
288Please respect copyright.PENANA0fwGFyiST2
「請寬恕吾等的褻瀆,這一切都是為了更加知曉您的存在!」288Please respect copyright.PENANA5A0yjmhutG
288Please respect copyright.PENANArdQOprUpvC
幾乎在同一時刻,結束演說的村長對著怪物高舉起了雙手,用嘶啞的聲音高喊著。288Please respect copyright.PENANAYTA8c09Z4v
288Please respect copyright.PENANAREkAivNEqa
隨後,包含穗香的父親在內的五名男人走到廣場中央──288Please respect copyright.PENANAkqrvmCkl6C
288Please respect copyright.PENANAEOEgvdV11k
288Please respect copyright.PENANAHfBTaF4dkb
「嘰嘰嘰嘰嘰嘰嘰嘰!!!」288Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3C8UBxuc0
288Please respect copyright.PENANAY0axkXvrhV
怪物第一次發出了悲鳴。288Please respect copyright.PENANAo39NvV3h9F
288Please respect copyright.PENANArFg69wlFY2
在我還沒反應過來之前,他們裡面其中一名手持柴刀的男人,毫不猶豫地朝怪物的腹部一刀劃開。288Please respect copyright.PENANAarHeFDU3jf
288Please respect copyright.PENANAOz1HV5cXCx
288Please respect copyright.PENANAwARqv3flmH
「嗚!?」288Please respect copyright.PENANAQhLZ5LRUFx
288Please respect copyright.PENANAqrQbE31amS
突如其來的殘忍景象,讓我不由得用雙手摀住嘴巴才避免自己尖叫出聲。288Please respect copyright.PENANAuRxkngIiZ1
288Please respect copyright.PENANA57aMMNtbfZ
288Please respect copyright.PENANAlPm1Sw4z0D
「……太亂來了吧。」288Please respect copyright.PENANAxekqStmnza
288Please respect copyright.PENANAs8kYWc5Iwa
同樣目睹這個景象的耕一小聲地咒罵起來。288Please respect copyright.PENANAbdcsuoKZZF
288Please respect copyright.PENANAKY1Sq9cSH5
然而,在那之後的太過衝擊般的畫面,讓我們兩個都暫時忘卻了離開的念頭。288Please respect copyright.PENANAdW4yPbeRdX
288Please respect copyright.PENANA3d1nOK0cPr
288Please respect copyright.PENANA6glRvF4UMn
「喂!裡面的這是和史啊!快來幫忙,他還有呼吸!」288Please respect copyright.PENANAjRsFNJZcs4
288Please respect copyright.PENANAnherW8N7ke
從敞開的腹部裡面滑了出來,像是胎兒一樣捲曲的裸體男人,毫無疑問的就是失蹤多日的葛城老師。288Please respect copyright.PENANAj4LnHGI2dG
288Please respect copyright.PENANAMb6cEJb2P2
但這怎麼可能。288Please respect copyright.PENANAgvu6vnf8oJ
288Please respect copyright.PENANAJqYION87rg
在那天我明明就已經看見葛城老師被斬斷手腳,為什麼現在又──288Please respect copyright.PENANA2yH5Vq6lMQ
288Please respect copyright.PENANATFKvgGSAcc
288Please respect copyright.PENANAMtnJXlCXje
「怎麼回事!?頭顱好像被黏在一起了啊!」288Please respect copyright.PENANABShPWtGimp
288Please respect copyright.PENANAMcx83zq68N
「斬斷上面那邊試看看吧!」288Please respect copyright.PENANAq9hmBhMsqW
288Please respect copyright.PENANA5EmmW8ls5Z
前面的大人們似乎七嘴八舌地討論著很恐怖的事情。288Please respect copyright.PENANA9JnToub3lY
288Please respect copyright.PENANAldvWTqBF0n
不過到一半突然就停住了,因為大家明顯都察覺到,在我們被葛城老師給吸引注意力的同時,那個怪物一直習慣性的抽搐動作不知道什麼時候停了下來。288Please respect copyright.PENANAUx9eSNpX5a
288Please respect copyright.PENANAc7izkEQnzm
288Please respect copyright.PENANAAfNk46SS7U
「──嘰?」288Please respect copyright.PENANAB5dc7nrlQC
288Please respect copyright.PENANAzfN3v6E6jm
像是注意到什麼似地,幾絲稀疏的頭髮垂著。288Please respect copyright.PENANA5AJ1csAA6A
288Please respect copyright.PENANAF0M3F0Y2Lu
張著嘴的怪物動也不動,只是歪著頭看向我們這邊的人群,然後彎起嘴角,試圖用喉嚨微微發出如同吹奏有破損直笛般的音色。288Please respect copyright.PENANAi4xCa7JBTg
288Please respect copyright.PENANAhvHIk8ljUd
288Please respect copyright.PENANAgg2UEHxuSh
「……姊、姊?」288Please respect copyright.PENANA4CnCUJ7LiN
288Please respect copyright.PENANA1Fo6TGeLBw
那瞬間我幾乎忘了怎麼呼吸。288Please respect copyright.PENANAC83tqp2p3I
288Please respect copyright.PENANAMNZSVmbjzP
胸口好緊,感受到無數往我身上投射過來的眼神。288Please respect copyright.PENANANftApe6CdC
288Please respect copyright.PENANAY4JiMLwCit
後退了一大步,果然沒錯,絕對是冬笑沒錯!眼前那東西絕對是冬笑沒錯!!288Please respect copyright.PENANAOhsekKQ3qK
288Please respect copyright.PENANACXsqeX5DVv
288Please respect copyright.PENANADoKiWDtDLI
「嘎啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊!!!」288Please respect copyright.PENANABljyW5Lvcj
288Please respect copyright.PENANAWcAOLigHi4
尖銳到像是用鑿子用瘋狂刮著黑膠唱片的高亢聲調。288Please respect copyright.PENANA6DzJlteBUY
288Please respect copyright.PENANACjCsXdCdoj
怪物像是壞掉的節拍器般興奮地上下甩著頸部,那很明顯就是針對我才做的舉動。288Please respect copyright.PENANAExRv73uLDo
