這簡直太荒謬了,以為罪證確鑿卻是一場空。先不說竟然不小心與比自己厲害許多的人做對,真的槓上了不知道會有什麼下場,這就算了,現在看起來只像是自己在無理取鬧罷了。237Please respect copyright.PENANADsoVLDTdCu
237Please respect copyright.PENANATJVnI9TuLF
二郎鬆開手,任湯花帶著驕傲氣焰將紅色徽章塞回口袋。237Please respect copyright.PENANABOh5MV6ltg
237Please respect copyright.PENANAzWAOmasaiz
「妳……」他仍舊無法理解,「都高級了還偷我們的東西?」237Please respect copyright.PENANAYwHBYqMGjI
237Please respect copyright.PENANA08GzftebiV
「天啊,都這樣了你還認為東西不見是我偷的嗎?」湯花的浮誇程度明顯是在責怪對方了,她扶著額頭,隨後無力垂下手,切換成警告意味濃厚的低沉嗓音,「我告訴你們,我們做生意的最講求誠信,敢隨便栽贓人試試看。」237Please respect copyright.PENANAPiSv0M4lxY
237Please respect copyright.PENANARjC0kvTSdu
都講到這個份上了——而且湯花的氛圍轉變也頗讓人害怕,完美詮釋了何謂翻臉比翻書還快——哈吉爾不安地靠近二郎耳邊輕問,「你確定真的不是自己弄丟嗎?」237Please respect copyright.PENANAeyYWFPOd5N
237Please respect copyright.PENANAL9LWum1500
「什麼?哈吉爾你這傢伙真的是遇到女人就弱掉了啊!」二郎不敢相信連同伴都開始懷疑自己,小聲咕噥回道:「……我沒有證據,但肯定是她沒錯。」237Please respect copyright.PENANAP7Q0b3nfsi
237Please respect copyright.PENANABswpbd29gq
你要不要聽一下自己在說什麼?這樣我要怎麼幫你啊?哈吉爾愣了半晌後開口,「那麼……我覺得東西應該還在她身上。如果是我的話,我肯定會藏在——」237Please respect copyright.PENANAjH6PdDBRbm
237Please respect copyright.PENANAkwj5ZY02aa
「幹嘛?你們兩個大男人難不成要搜我的身嗎?」237Please respect copyright.PENANA8ruG9S176q
237Please respect copyright.PENANAK5NI9fdCWb
別的先不說,湯花就屬聽力特別好了。她雙手大剌剌敞開,「來啊,摸啊!要搜就搜徹底一點,摸啊!」237Please respect copyright.PENANAowNZJCJSPL
237Please respect copyright.PENANAcYY6Uj5rzk
她咄咄逼人的語氣就像後頭的汽車喇叭,逼人不自覺催緊油門。237Please respect copyright.PENANA6y23jO2EKe
237Please respect copyright.PENANAYiQVg2Iy3m
哈吉爾明明完全沒有那個意思,卻被湯花的口氣嚇得抬手,彷彿要往前伸,又被自己理智給拉回。他只好朝二郎求救,可是後者只顧瞪著湯花,根本沒注意到哈吉爾無助的眼神。237Please respect copyright.PENANADx4rPPPeCM
237Please respect copyright.PENANAGh8kknbjrI
應該沒關係,不要碰到身體,只檢查那個的話應該沒關係吧?237Please respect copyright.PENANAuL5zXrfpKz
237Please respect copyright.PENANAzTIS7pwPwZ
在內心天使與惡魔的激烈拉扯後哈吉爾開始伸手,魔法師的魔爪正緩緩靠近湯花傲人的胸脯——237Please respect copyright.PENANApNuA5mBObY
237Please respect copyright.PENANACFmv2zw0Tw
二郎及時握住哈吉爾手腕。237Please respect copyright.PENANAcdkuWJz3zo
237Please respect copyright.PENANAikz0Ha8nLE
沿著藍色武士服袖口向上望去,他正對著湯花露出得逞的賊笑:「妳自己說的哦,我們會徹·底·檢·查·一·遍。」237Please respect copyright.PENANAJhRFFARGrx
237Please respect copyright.PENANAHaIJIH2kCT
「二郎,你……」哈吉爾難以置信。237Please respect copyright.PENANAk5bhT51UDD
237Please respect copyright.PENANAqMIIEvyXjx
當然,身為當事人的湯花也是震驚,她就是仗著對方會被自己氣勢嚇得退縮才如此大膽,完全沒料到二郎竟然……237Please respect copyright.PENANA6AmYnG5MQT
237Please respect copyright.PENANAso5GEcvUyK
「呵,變態。」她冷哼。237Please respect copyright.PENANAna4gnw1oWC
237Please respect copyright.PENANAClu3pW62nW
「妳在想什麼啊?我有說是我要搜嗎?」237Please respect copyright.PENANApgMeHgS9Up
237Please respect copyright.PENANARGaGMgJnhi
蛤?湯花一臉懵逼,仔細一瞧才發現二郎的目光其實不在自己身上,而是她身後的紅色布簾。237Please respect copyright.PENANAgQXXcdhy3z
237Please respect copyright.PENANA1OIG84RTQS
「在和梨出來以前妳可別想跑。」
237Please respect copyright.PENANAQyGErkmOUj
237Please respect copyright.PENANALkFcbzbWHs
等待和梨的這段期間哈吉爾已經幫二郎的手治療得差不多了。237Please respect copyright.PENANA0c5q9TkUim
237Please respect copyright.PENANAnADbnSYcbi
以防湯花把偷來的東西藏匿在別的地方,他們也把整個肉眼可見之處全都搜刮了一遍,翻箱倒櫃到都快誤認自己才是強盜了,卻是一無所獲。237Please respect copyright.PENANAv7ItgMEolr
237Please respect copyright.PENANAU0G5WVBVS4
時間流逝地緩慢。237Please respect copyright.PENANALGqfWp4oqP
237Please respect copyright.PENANAaFxJByjdQQ
斑駁白牆上的掛鐘滴答作響,比起音響傳出的輕音樂,已經無事可做坐在大廳休息的他們更在意秒針移動的速度。237Please respect copyright.PENANAVlhRQ8RAcT
237Please respect copyright.PENANAZ51xV7cPs6
「和梨是不是泡得有點久啊?」哈吉爾有些擔心。237Please respect copyright.PENANAWMWHVsvpdB
237Please respect copyright.PENANABvJ5hMwaHk
「她不是說第一次泡溫泉嗎?應該是玩瘋了吧。」237Please respect copyright.PENANAQmx0kVI8cz
237Please respect copyright.PENANAohZcr6Mcen
掐指一算可足足過了一個小時,普通游泳就算了,40度的溫度不適合泡那麼久,和梨又是一個人待在裡面,要是滑倒撞到頭了怎麼辦?237Please respect copyright.PENANA9hq7eVnhjN
237Please respect copyright.PENANAVCgABe3tkc
哈吉爾差點就自告奮勇說要進去檢查狀況了,突然發現好像不太適合,欲言又止。237Please respect copyright.PENANA4VrvaDs91d
237Please respect copyright.PENANAocvTxen5I7
「既然擔心的話那就讓我去看看吧。」抓到機會的湯花開心極了。237Please respect copyright.PENANAGHA3sxPETV
237Please respect copyright.PENANANSKvCah9oW
雖然能理解哈吉爾的心情,但二郎覺得又不是消失個半天一天,也許泡著泡著太舒服就睡著了也說不定啊?而且這很像和梨會做的事。237Please respect copyright.PENANAIlRQi2TzHz
237Please respect copyright.PENANA3wqBaqfpBr
看那賊笑肯定是想趁機開溜或藏東西吧?二郎才不會上當。237Please respect copyright.PENANAsmLMadQOu8
237Please respect copyright.PENANA4r3rx7IVvW
「不行!別以為我不知道妳想幹嘛。」237Please respect copyright.PENANAnyC6zP2VLc
237Please respect copyright.PENANAJRqLZPVykP
「因為你把我關在這的關係,這段時間我都沒辦法進去巡視泡湯區,要是溫度不小心上升到人體無法負荷的程度,你朋友可能就……」湯花故意舉起拇指在脖子前做一個割喉的動作,「溫水煮青蛙囉。」237Please respect copyright.PENANAKFmKDmcQ4R
237Please respect copyright.PENANA91AjudNRUe
看一旁哈吉爾都快衝出去了,二郎暗自吐槽他不夠了解和梨,那傢伙就算變成青蛙肯定也是那種跳來跳去最煩的青蛙。237Please respect copyright.PENANAjDD84jAGK4
237Please respect copyright.PENANAo8LR6BL0c0
「唉……」但為了隊友他只好妥協,「妳去看看吧。」237Please respect copyright.PENANA2M6u7aRVes
237Please respect copyright.PENANAsl4DA0YLC9
看見湯花隨即露出孩子般的興奮表情,二郎立刻補槍,「但是!妳進去必須大喊和梨的名字。」這樣和梨就能聽聲音立即監視湯花的一舉一動,避免她把贓物偷藏起來。237Please respect copyright.PENANA0DrJidLZiN
237Please respect copyright.PENANAq1NjYSMfcU
「然後哈吉爾,我們要跟著進到女更衣室的湯區門口前。」237Please respect copyright.PENANArLz4Tg48Qm
237Please respect copyright.PENANAPISOGkmBLC
「認、認真嗎?!」237Please respect copyright.PENANAfU7neNokYh
237Please respect copyright.PENANAkcbJQzKIv8
「要盯緊這傢伙不能讓她有一個人獨處的機會。」二郎解釋,為了抓犯人他還真是用盡心思,「反正沒有要進池區,看不到啦!你就當作我們要當和梨的保鑣好了。」
237Please respect copyright.PENANACtCDZbVyvL
「我還是想問……我們這樣做真的好嗎?」237Please respect copyright.PENANAoOTeyp9zV4
237Please respect copyright.PENANAH7at9jYa37
哈吉爾戰戰兢兢走進女子更衣室,明知道沒有人卻還是東張西望,腳下吱吱作響的老舊木板令他繃緊神經,卻只換來二郎一句「良心不安你就出去嘛,反正我心無雜念。」237Please respect copyright.PENANAHH2cLu8wSw
237Please respect copyright.PENANAcLlolVy79N
「我也沒有雜念啊!」應該吧。237Please respect copyright.PENANAn0R38WOY0Q
237Please respect copyright.PENANA2ygwllSGwu
走在前方的湯花拉開毛玻璃門,斜眼瞥見自己果然被兩人監視著,悻悻然大喊:「和梨!妳還要泡多久?」237Please respect copyright.PENANAEP5QW05iwr
237Please respect copyright.PENANA6Ev34uyUjY
叩咚!造景竹筒的水填滿而垂落,聲音迴盪,卻不見任何人回應。237Please respect copyright.PENANAwHLUxjJ9dL
237Please respect copyright.PENANAoYdTfZTbrE
一秒、兩秒......五秒過去了依然鴉雀無聲。237Please respect copyright.PENANASg1XZHQNav
237Please respect copyright.PENANAlFtbwJwlKP
二郎與哈吉爾面面相覷,擠眉弄眼用表情問著現在是什麼情況。237Please respect copyright.PENANAD56ou5PGct
237Please respect copyright.PENANAcDZ0moKUxM
「喂,聽到的話回應一下好嗎!」湯花的口氣明顯變嚴肅。237Please respect copyright.PENANA0cW7xbuYrZ
237Please respect copyright.PENANAurskFzP7ox
泡湯超過一小時不是什麼太嚴重的事情,她見過許多老阿公老阿嬤待在熱水裡兩三個小時都沒感覺。237Please respect copyright.PENANA0iimb7zqEA
237Please respect copyright.PENANAfgcFV7iAwL
但沒回應就另當別論了。237Please respect copyright.PENANA0dEABHuLih
237Please respect copyright.PENANAXOY7qxYzc3
溫泉是讓人放鬆休息的地方,但不代表絕對安全,不然他們也不會限制三歲以下孩童禁止進入,與父親相依為命的湯花更不會在湯屋營業時間被綁在這裡只為了定期巡視女湯。237Please respect copyright.PENANAvkTNUGA441
237Please respect copyright.PENANACw8b3ZDrQL
客人可能滑倒、可能因溫差過大而休克,意外總是暗藏在生活周遭。237Please respect copyright.PENANAP27OE4oyDg
237Please respect copyright.PENANAucHhuCmfWX
人們是死是活湯花其實也不是很在意,但她唯獨不容許有人在這裡發生三長兩短。237Please respect copyright.PENANAwi270btPoJ
237Please respect copyright.PENANALth4T0M76x
「這裡」可是她的家,不是可以隨便死人的地方。237Please respect copyright.PENANAxFLArUdrt3
237Please respect copyright.PENANAoFkvtx5ylZ
「別鬧了!快回答我!」湯花喊著,慢慢步入水蒸氣瀰漫的空間之中,她的聲音在容納五六個池子的諾大場地內迴盪。237Please respect copyright.PENANAw9zH3z2zNP
237Please respect copyright.PENANAB2MNJEWcKf
她左顧右盼仔細尋找,最終在淋浴區隱隱約約看見倒臥在地的人影。237Please respect copyright.PENANAFrXJIXp310
237Please respect copyright.PENANAHBlChJEHpf
她立刻跑過去,果不其然發現和梨趴在地面,右手指穿進塑膠小凳子中間洞孔,看起來是要拿椅子做些什麼。摔落在地的蓮蓬頭上有敲擊的痕跡,和梨的肩膀、手肘處皆有瘀青及擦傷。237Please respect copyright.PENANAUtYTzjhyqJ
237Please respect copyright.PENANAeVJIc6wMqJ
這根本不是摔倒這麼簡單的事。237Please respect copyright.PENANAh1MxaapJQq
237Please respect copyright.PENANAV9Fl2RPtyW
「喂!妳趕快醒醒!」湯花激動搖著她,和梨腳上有個什麼突然抽走,咻——地縮回一旁熱泉裡頭。237Please respect copyright.PENANAbQA071Rh28
237Please respect copyright.PENANApTB6MQJpV6
雖然速度很快,但湯花確定那個東西很像透明觸手,卻不知道到底是什麼。237Please respect copyright.PENANAikHdKjsJKx
237Please respect copyright.PENANASV6IOSHgtd
「嗚……」和梨呻吟,終於睜開雙眼,她皺著眉似乎不大舒服,「是妳……」她又昏沉個幾秒才開口:「白靈……都這麼兇的嗎……」237Please respect copyright.PENANA3o1kf5BExW
237Please respect copyright.PENANAnEKIPPmvS4
什麼?237Please respect copyright.PENANAci57RKdbWP
237Please respect copyright.PENANAdPNYb37LKM
湯花愣住,才赫然想起和梨泡湯前一直跟她說聽見哭聲。237Please respect copyright.PENANAGIFIFPJhMI
237Please respect copyright.PENANAcciz03elfC
她真以為那是白靈才不管的,因為白靈不會攻擊任何人。237Please respect copyright.PENANAKRzjWYK49J
237Please respect copyright.PENANApVHIikADDC
「湯花,女湯這幾天不開放,我懷疑裡面有怪物。」237Please respect copyright.PENANAPEXfvnlMmr
237Please respect copyright.PENANAuj93zhOqRq
她忽然想起父親幾天前曾說過的話。237Please respect copyright.PENANA1u3QbCddW9
237Please respect copyright.PENANAi7ct9rgkFx
父親說好像聽見小孩的聲音,但沒看到人,後來湯花跟著他一起找了好幾次,還是什麼也沒發現。237Please respect copyright.PENANAsQ34k5MIXQ
237Please respect copyright.PENANA7FgWfvflrC
為了以防萬一,父親堅持要去張貼任務請冒險者來解決,湯花只覺得他大驚小怪,明明什麼證據也沒有,都嫌最近生意不好了還繼續亂花錢,那筆任務的費用給她拿去揮霍還比較值得。237Please respect copyright.PENANAUGWzLhFMSQ
237Please respect copyright.PENANAwrwUZh2BLQ
「真的有怪物……」237Please respect copyright.PENANAKYvJGVP5Tv
237Please respect copyright.PENANAkEm3AZw3Sh
看著和梨滿身傷痕的憔悴樣,她才驚覺自己錯了。237Please respect copyright.PENANAeAPPSH6uGI
237Please respect copyright.PENANA0lRbf4Q9db
倒抽一口氣後,她不安地看向剛才透明觸手縮回的那個池子。237Please respect copyright.PENANAKDB0fhOgmY
237Please respect copyright.PENANAjkynT35nFN
漣漪悄悄晃動著。
