醒來的葉空時發現自己被綁在床上無法動彈，遂不斷掙扎試圖掙脫束縛。嘎吱作響的床架震動聲迴盪整座房間，她努力一陣子發現徒勞無功，筋疲力盡下只能先放棄。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOp52QyrEQ

靜下後的葉空時環顧四周，發現所處環境堆疊了不少紙箱。有些紙箱飄散出異味，似乎有什麼東西放在裡頭臭掉了。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZI9KAMbyVg

緊閉的房門突然打開，葉空時緊張地盯著門後。隨著引擎聲響起，一名坐在電動輪椅上的年輕眼鏡男人推開門進來。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD98ZAFhjdm

「抱歉必須綁著妳，看來妳已經復原了。」輪椅男一進房便是道歉，葉空時警戒地盯著他的一舉一動。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbXQalf9NI

輪椅男移動到她旁邊，拉下剎車：「我想妳應該不記得我了吧？」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XzbmjOMmq
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JDXUYeno2
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFP4WfkuZk
「為什麼要綁住我？」葉空時答非所問，輪椅男理解的點頭。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgqAf7Re13
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvPrMcUO1K
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcC7JL4idw
「因為妳變異了。」輪椅男道：「妳從 5 樓摔下後不但還站得起來，傷勢也復原得差不多。會這樣都是因為妳變異的關係。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzuXfUVyXn
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWktBVQ1dZ
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDz78NRuDKC
葉空時知道他在說什麼，對於那晚發生的事她依稀有印象。只是她愈想回憶得更仔細，畫面就愈模糊。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YBuDFnNRf
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8e9gdGioE
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TzpoUw2r7
「十年了，曾經待過那裡的人，包括妳，幾乎都變異了。」輪椅男語氣有些哀傷。聽到關鍵字的葉空時內心掀起巨濤，對男人的身分害怕起來。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7tU5CpPSD
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIapvlJ1nMv

「『公寓發生駭人分屍案！兇案現場被員警形容是地獄！嫌犯疑似是熱炒店外送員？』」葉空時瞪著網路新聞頭版上，斗大聳動的標題，嘴巴久久闔不上。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgZ85C8idn

178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1vsuITptL

「我查過了，警方在現場找到的凶器刀片上查出妳的指紋，於是把妳判定為嫌疑犯。」輪椅男道：「距離案件發生到現在妳已失蹤五天，檢方懷疑妳畏罪潛逃，已經對妳發布通緝令。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoiiaWhFol

「……瑞花失蹤了。」輪椅男抿嘴：「林其把妳送過來後，立刻到妳家找他，但是他不在家。林其在那裡守了整整一晚他都沒出現，直到警察來林其才離開。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfxETb8BGV

「妳先冷靜點，有太多的事必須釐清。依妳現在的狀況，我們一件一件來處理。」輪椅男闔上筆電，後退幾步：「先跟妳說明，現在在這屋子的所有人，都是十年前曾在『那裡』接受過實驗的人。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJT5IZrpRhL

「小瘸子。」葉空時低喃：「我聽過裡面的大人和其他小孩這麼叫你，煙因拿來偷餵瑞花的牛奶都是你給的，一直都沒跟你說謝謝。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHRqv4T33Z
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsRgfAwi9H6
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDS3ZjSPL5q
「那沒什麼。瑞花當時是裡面最小的孩子，老實說他能撐過實驗，真的很厲害。」路良淺笑：「說到煙因，我找好久都找不到他，妳知道他現在──」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2APr56EDQ

178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNF5PJ6wUJ
「噢，這反應讓我有點意想不到。」路良瞇眼：「林其前天有到瑞花的學校打聽，發現他就讀的班級停課了，貌似有學生感染無神症的樣子。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyJzRiJW7B
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrB1nvMXlQZ
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOno9YeSjYy
「無神症？那不是精神病？」葉空時不解為何會因為那種事停課，路良輕推眼鏡。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnQoeVR7yI
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01TFHbScGu
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mQknHYAmh
「那似乎不是單純的精神病。自跨年連假結束後，各地開始爆出大量患者，幾乎都是以家庭為單位患病。一開始是父母，再來是小孩，接著是小孩的同學、父母的同事。」路良道：「學者猜測無神症或許是一種可以『傳染』的精神病。已經有好幾座社區因為患病家庭過多，被政府隔離管制。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLcBpYD7Fp

注意到葉空時呆滯的眼神，路良明瞭她一時無法消化這麼多資訊，於是決定先打住。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEuRFmCGZN
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2NB4sQJg1
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDGQERskFm
「關於無神症，我們之後再找時間聊。只顧著講都忘記先幫妳鬆綁了。」路良滑到床頭鐵架旁解除葉空時的束縛：「據說變異前會有徵兆，當妳感到不對勁時，請記得先提醒大家去避難。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbqR5mscgr

「在玉慈的肚子裡時，我感覺自己已經死了。」鬆綁後的葉空時癱在床上，睜眼瞪著天花板：「也不知道過了多久，我突然被一道聲音吵醒。那叫聲好刺耳，就像有人直接對著我的耳朵放聲尖叫。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8Z0rrd94m
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSaqsbcNzd
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUwFUYLpWH
「當我意識到發出尖叫的就是我自己，身體突然沒那麼痛了。」葉空時看著自己的雙手：「我能感受到有一股能量流竄全身。就像睡起喝的第一口水，順著咽喉流到了胃裡，那感觸太鮮明了。」她輕觸喉嚨。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxtvFNXcF3

178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCfEQc5zpF
178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3Pw4ydH68
「對。」路良給了肯定答覆：「目前聚在這裡的人只有妳變異過，但我想大家很快都會變成這樣，這只是時間上的問題。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlSuaVrsol

「妳被警察抓住，正好給他們找到妳的機會。」路良道：「雖然我到現在還不能確定那些人是誰，但能夠擁有這麼大的實驗室和員工，進行違法人體實驗還能不被政府和執法單位發現，想必是有權有勢的人物。」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOgVukkDX9

路良連忙駕駛輪椅倒退。他看到葉空時臉上開始浮現青筋，查了不少資料的他猜測這有可能是要變異的前兆！178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFiH3K3i8E

「冷靜點！空時！」路良退到門邊，用力敲門向門外的其他人求助：「空時狀況不好！你們快來幫忙！」178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CMx8X1GU2

「各位！有沒有人啊！」路良轉動門把，卻發現門把被卡住了！不僅如此，似乎有什麼沉重的東西擋在門後，讓患有小兒麻痺的他無法靠一己之力推開！178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHTESteQRF

「棉被！」帽 T 男喊道，路良連忙拾起掉在床邊的被子給他。帽 T 男接過隨即蓋在葉空時臉上，待她一動也不動後才爬下床。178Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjTdsiB2QL
