身為牧師的安德烈對死亡並不陌生。784Please respect copyright.PENANAQJB6xqk1zI
784Please respect copyright.PENANApPKHiRcAQg
需要牧師或神父舉辦葬禮的次數太多,多到讓人有些麻木,要說有什麼讓安德烈感到驚訝的,大概是他沒想過,有朝一日,他會為自己認識的人主持葬禮。784Please respect copyright.PENANAggzL0B4QiJ
784Please respect copyright.PENANASa2QkFy8IB
安德烈和死者的交情不深,充其量不過是曾經讀過同間大學。784Please respect copyright.PENANA6c1ppwKbTK
784Please respect copyright.PENANAoQai0IGGSW
亡者是名年輕時髦的女性,對事業有著莫大熱忱與野心,誰也沒想到,她會成為連續殺人魔事件的受害者。784Please respect copyright.PENANAaoGAg1vG9T
784Please respect copyright.PENANANZYHb3GtWv
遺體保存的狀態很好,或者該說,被發現的時間早。784Please respect copyright.PENANA7q8QWaAKQq
784Please respect copyright.PENANALdUtvg5B8V
幾乎是血被抽乾沒多久,她就被人發現了。784Please respect copyright.PENANAJE9G5I1tuK
784Please respect copyright.PENANAhZ796IsTNV
她被棄置在人來人往的公園,誰也不知道兇手是怎麼做到的,幾乎是在回神的剎那,她就躺在禁止踩踏的草皮上,面容沉靜安詳的彷彿熟睡。784Please respect copyright.PENANAmNOV4hGCqP
784Please respect copyright.PENANAbqBqwhhHLQ
這事引起軒然大波。784Please respect copyright.PENANAnkZPS8QzpZ
784Please respect copyright.PENANAuMipOx8AHc
公園這種隨時都有人會經過的地方,她被發現時,附近除了有兩對情侶,還有帶著小孩跟寵物出來散步的家長,愣是沒人知道,她是什麼時候出現在那,又是何時躺在那裡,自然的叫人毛骨悚然。784Please respect copyright.PENANAXwO3puFWoS
784Please respect copyright.PENANACiE6AxDc2y
兇手是怪物的傳聞,甚囂塵上。784Please respect copyright.PENANAmcLwwEMMtj
784Please respect copyright.PENANAN1HDJ9erAr
如果不是安德烈負責主持這場葬禮,沒有社交必要,我不會出現在這個場合,在安德烈察覺亡者和自己曾經有過淵源前,我只是旁觀者。784Please respect copyright.PENANAJyfG4hfV9I
784Please respect copyright.PENANAs3qceoHjWC

784Please respect copyright.PENANAmSyaeWYoHB
我在葬禮開始前,安德烈尚未回神之際,附於他耳邊低語,「如果兇手是人類的話,要我把那傢伙揪出來嗎?」784Please respect copyright.PENANAA1A01zXT6g
784Please respect copyright.PENANAnCJPrCn7Qa

安德烈閉上眼睛,深呼吸幾次後,才緩緩睜眼,「不。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAMMdlSZjUes
784Please respect copyright.PENANAMcxHPxd09O
「哦?」安德烈的反應有些出我意料,我以手指自他胸前挑起那條十字項鍊,「即使會有更多的人類犧牲?」784Please respect copyright.PENANAsvI26TfuUg
784Please respect copyright.PENANA7Cb1OBYpqx
「那也是在我看不到的地方。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAq5XuKQxySG
784Please respect copyright.PENANABWnjaD5BAY
安德烈的回答乍聽之下有些冷血,有些不近人情與袖手旁觀,我卻相當滿意,比起正義感過剩到無法看清局勢的人類,安德烈這樣才是最可愛的。784Please respect copyright.PENANAqxJZt1jbO7
784Please respect copyright.PENANAOcdvGT0uLM
我在他略微慍怒的目光中,低笑著退出他的視線。784Please respect copyright.PENANAVPuanYk5bY
784Please respect copyright.PENANANUdAmr1ziu
亡者的未婚夫表現出極大的悲憤,葬禮最後,他捂著臉,拒絕所有人的安慰與接觸,獨自一人弔念一去不回的未婚妻。784Please respect copyright.PENANAZWKlHSZEl2
784Please respect copyright.PENANAGbnRZXHAcs
巧合的是,這人和安德烈也認識。784Please respect copyright.PENANAHwyQPRuVaB
784Please respect copyright.PENANAcNQlr8yUBP
安德烈尚未轉入神學院之前,他們不僅是校隊隊友,還是選修同位教師科目的同學,坦白說,我對安德烈當年的學院生活並不瞭解,知曉他跟對方曾是校隊成員時,我忍不住好奇,問他當初到底參加哪項運動。784Please respect copyright.PENANAyaf8mloIn6
784Please respect copyright.PENANAN65RHgSEqC
不意外的得到橄欖球校隊的回覆。784Please respect copyright.PENANAFHHRqLopdp
784Please respect copyright.PENANAgWxyMj2ds0
難怪安德烈的體格那麼棒,想當年被他撞翻的人一定很多。784Please respect copyright.PENANAzsa2pXy8sb
784Please respect copyright.PENANAoYd22PWfht
和安德烈半路轉攻神學院不同,這位原校隊隊長一直是校內風雲人物,人帥體格好,據說當時對他拋過媚眼的女孩子多到數不清,就連火辣性感的啦啦隊長也曾對他示好。784Please respect copyright.PENANAI2T6p2alyy
784Please respect copyright.PENANAkYGmKDGYh8
這樣的男人,同時擁有幾個女朋友,也不會有人感到意外,偏偏,狄恩不僅拒絕了啦啦隊長的示好,甚至連一夜情的對象也沒有,以亞里德的角度來看,這根本不科學,為此,他合理的懷疑,狄恩如果不是性冷感,就是個同性戀,再不然一定是他那方面不行。784Please respect copyright.PENANAEKgvuhUkUP

不然哪有理由送上門的美女放著不吃?784Please respect copyright.PENANAgjH5We8pNG

我看了亞里德一眼,「今天是他未婚妻的葬禮。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAtVNOALNVUC
784Please respect copyright.PENANAuESPpKmo39
「我當然知道,不然我也不會在這。」亞里德不以為然的聳肩,同時湊到我身邊,將頭靠在我手臂上。「我想回家休息。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAu0SDHYqSXp
784Please respect copyright.PENANAq1o921EdrI
「再忍耐一下,快結束了。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAommLs2v0qr
784Please respect copyright.PENANAXkHJKowyPB
亞里德並不想參加這場葬禮,如果不是他當年跟在安德烈身邊混吃混喝,仗著嘴甜,長得又好看,硬是混得比安德烈還要熟稔他那群同學,甚至還與今天的葬禮主角結下不解之緣,他今天不會出現在這。784Please respect copyright.PENANAH6K8iXmwVe
784Please respect copyright.PENANAFA8sIEwJg0
比起安德烈,亞里德更加懂得如何搏取他人歡心,尤其對方是名女性時。784Please respect copyright.PENANAdnN4Ft9XEy
784Please respect copyright.PENANAbIiOHgKqK6
亞里德因此嘗了不少甜頭,就連她生前也對亞里德青睞有加,凡是有好處都記得他,就連後來安德烈跑去讀神學院,和他們幾乎沒了聯繫,她依然記得亞里德,每年聖誕節和生日都不忘給他寄份禮物。784Please respect copyright.PENANAPIoZjbUiSZ
784Please respect copyright.PENANAVy9w73gtL9
衝著這點,哪怕亞里德一開始收到訃聞時,根本想不起對方是誰,最後,仍是在安德烈提醒下,心不甘情不願的出席葬禮。784Please respect copyright.PENANAxuDDZB1IC6
784Please respect copyright.PENANAgTegVt65p4
安德烈那群老同學認出他時,亞里德早已眼眶泛紅,一副強忍悲慟的模樣。784Please respect copyright.PENANA63KG6mAbyV
784Please respect copyright.PENANAnc6fBNhiso
他甚至哽咽的無法完整說完一句話。784Please respect copyright.PENANAC86KfuKux2
784Please respect copyright.PENANAq5sSxvEen9
看似悲傷的表面底下,究竟含有幾分真誠?人類並不在意,只要表面看似哀痛,就足以為他們接受,這點相當有意思,連帶的,人群之中的亞里德也彷彿散發著光芒,可愛的讓我想將他捧在手裡。784Please respect copyright.PENANAJuuvqkBRNC

根據亞里德的說詞,狄恩是個集幸與不幸於一身的男人。784Please respect copyright.PENANAGjbLmyDQBs
784Please respect copyright.PENANALsavnVCQNX
他在校隊最風光時受了一場意外,導致肌腱嚴重斷裂,雖然事後復健的很好,短暫的跑步和輕微運動並不是問題,但他再也沒法站到球場上頭,這對喜愛運動的狄恩而言,是個嚴重打擊,他消沉了許久。784Please respect copyright.PENANAhAsjbGiKyb
784Please respect copyright.PENANAvfZZuLo5qz
亞里德說,按照一般的劇情套路,狄恩應該就此走上不歸路,酗酒嗑藥,玩弄女人,樣樣都來,胡作非為才對。784Please respect copyright.PENANAim3DlptU3O
784Please respect copyright.PENANAZiB16a9tQO
沒想到,狄恩實在開朗到令人髮指。784Please respect copyright.PENANA9T6NNf8sl1
784Please respect copyright.PENANARCCNrtf0su
消沉一陣子,覺得事已至此,沮喪也於事無補,帶著釣具就跑去垂釣了,整整兩個多月,沒人見他回來上過一堂課,要不是他平日表現良好,多半準備留級了。784Please respect copyright.PENANADNmNwNtZsO
784Please respect copyright.PENANAyUmhMNZ7Nj
狄恩再度回歸校園後,誠懇的向各系教授表達了缺席的歉意,並希望能獲得補救學分的機會,素行良好的學生就是得人疼,再加上狄恩的事,眾所皆知,教授們也沒為難他,讓他用社區活動的時數作為彌補,這事就算揭過了。784Please respect copyright.PENANA2N5D9QJl8t
784Please respect copyright.PENANArbvxowSKwN
沒人知道狄恩外出旅遊的兩個月裡發生什麼事,不過他似乎對意外導致的不幸看開了,或者該說,他有更多的時間精力完成其他的事。784Please respect copyright.PENANAuyCcU9hvTF
784Please respect copyright.PENANAz2WwrdH8at
反正狄恩一帆風順的畢業,再順利妥當的成為大企業員工,平步青雲的升職。784Please respect copyright.PENANAKPxsXsvCkz
784Please respect copyright.PENANAGmyA5dlKLk
至於他跟死者是怎麼發展出愛情,這不在亞里德的八卦範圍裡,人都死了,八卦再多也翻不出新花樣,除非峰迴路轉的爆出狄恩是個渣男在外拈花惹草,或是狄恩其實是個混帳,喜歡男人卻用死者當掩護,不然根本沒有什麼話題性。784Please respect copyright.PENANACn3sbnQyEH
784Please respect copyright.PENANAI9nDKhFgWq
青春衝動時期的狄恩沒有花邊緋聞,成熟穩重的狄恩更是不可能鬧出腳踏多船的緋聞。784Please respect copyright.PENANAhHlD8kcefD
784Please respect copyright.PENANAKYCsYYr4co
「簡直完美情人,有沒有?」如果亞里德說這話時,不是那麼的咬牙切齒,我或許會試著相信,他在心裡真是如此評價狄恩。784Please respect copyright.PENANAA40LhpBrA6
784Please respect copyright.PENANA83a1X5iqeA
愛情事業兩得意的狄恩,剛完成一件對公司極其有利,收益驚人的案子,職位準備再往上挪一個檔次時,他美麗的未婚妻被人發現陳屍在公園,消息傳來時,狄恩正在公司替他舉辦的慶功宴上,接受同事下屬的敬酒。784Please respect copyright.PENANA4Lkv97UVCc

現下,集悲劇與喜劇於一身的狄恩,就坐在客廳與安德烈閒聊。784Please respect copyright.PENANAifKkEzb3Lo
784Please respect copyright.PENANAIL4bZ5VY3x
和葬禮時相比,他的氣色好上許多,依然帶著一絲憔悴,坐在他面前的安德烈也沒開口說話,整個客廳只能聽見他們拿起茶杯,以及放下茶杯時的細微聲響。784Please respect copyright.PENANAdy3f2PPeoo
784Please respect copyright.PENANAp3AgMZBvHx
狄恩直到葬禮才確定,負責主持的牧師是安德烈,不是同名同姓的陌生人。784Please respect copyright.PENANAtFeYYZ3SgK
784Please respect copyright.PENANABPuywNQdrk
後來,狄恩又前往教會為死去的未婚妻祈福,就順勢和安德烈交換了聯絡方式,面對這名痛失所愛的老同學,安德烈不嗇給予最大的耐心與關懷。784Please respect copyright.PENANAQPsu1jx4oh
784Please respect copyright.PENANA1hZBIRaB84
亞里德也總在狄恩來訪的時候,識相的不去打擾。784Please respect copyright.PENANA95wSN51dP7
784Please respect copyright.PENANAhHMLBETh8B
儘管,狄恩每次來訪也不見得是想說話,更多時間是默默坐著接受安德烈招待,直到時間已晚,才起身告辭,安德烈依然沒有任何不悅。784Please respect copyright.PENANAqTBRTB1XRR
784Please respect copyright.PENANAT9Tihwr6JK
有回,亞里德站在窗邊看著狄恩離去的背影,「這傢伙只是想找個人陪吧?」784Please respect copyright.PENANA7jo8Jk9FqO
784Please respect copyright.PENANAB6BEmdeiz0
「聽說他們之前住在一塊,突然間少了個人,一定很不習慣吧?」說到這,亞里德轉頭看我,「我該慶幸你不會突然死掉嗎?」784Please respect copyright.PENANAI8wAAtW1kt
784Please respect copyright.PENANAMXxK3Pm3Q5
「這很難說,也許我哪天突然就死了。」怪物的時間固然綿長,但非永恆。784Please respect copyright.PENANAwvum3xr2mP
784Please respect copyright.PENANAJdIOsNvLSt
亞里德聞言大笑,「放心,真有那麼一天,我一定會去酒吧狂歡,絕對不會像狄恩一樣,跑到別人家裡尋求安慰。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAJDw9bzr7IV
784Please respect copyright.PENANAUSfWtkJx5A
亞里德的話語既刻薄又惡毒,比起失去生命的亡者,他更在乎誰影響了他的權益,如此現實、傲慢,並且自私,可愛到讓我忍不住低頭親吻他的嘴唇,「你就沒想過,也許我會留下一筆可觀的遺產?」784Please respect copyright.PENANAzC729zzuWS
784Please respect copyright.PENANASKS3dsKYrt
「那你的遺產繼承人務必要寫我唷!」784Please respect copyright.PENANApaEgekZtZO
784Please respect copyright.PENANA6JIVUU2uPf
直到樓下傳來催促的喇叭聲,亞里德才自我的衣袋內取出皮夾,笑著出門與同伴會合,一直到他上了對方的車,化作埃及貓的斯芬克斯才慢吞吞的從外頭走近來,躍到窗檯上頭。784Please respect copyright.PENANAUL3bW6jysq
784Please respect copyright.PENANAnqokbIUInl
「要處理嗎?」偽裝成貓的時間太久,斯芬克斯連說話時都下意識的甩了下貓尾。784Please respect copyright.PENANAzzb683DBjO
784Please respect copyright.PENANAuDXCxLkv2v
他的話語聽起來有些沒頭沒尾,我卻很清楚他在指些什麼,我看了窗外送狄恩一程,現在正從街道另一端緩緩走回的安德烈一眼,「暫時不用。」784Please respect copyright.PENANANJTfzXwH6C
784Please respect copyright.PENANA5PkBzjNV46
剩下的話,我相信不用我說,斯芬克斯也能瞭解。784Please respect copyright.PENANAxBrm07U3Hc

狄恩的造訪,對我來說,不過是無數微不足道的插曲中其中一項,真正引起我興趣的,是在某天下午,風塵僕僕前來的女妖。784Please respect copyright.PENANAJDgb924Sni

好消息?壞消息?784Please respect copyright.PENANAoIc4L773GQ
784Please respect copyright.PENANA2i18i7PTt1
向來在靠近海岸的飯店和渡假中心當服務生的女妖,鮮少出現在人口集中的內陸,面對我的詢問,她並沒有直接回覆,反而像是沉浸在什麼回憶,或是某種感受般,伸手觸碰自己的臉頰,半晌,才徐緩開口,「伊安。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAFpoXYOq0oN
784Please respect copyright.PENANAatNgGytfVV
那聲伊安極其繾綣纏綿,宛如情人間的呢喃,再加上她獨特,或者該說跟不上時代的穿著品味,格外耐人尋味。784Please respect copyright.PENANAOwWeO9n5Yn
784Please respect copyright.PENANASHe39bPUyI
即使是現代,也鮮少有人會戴著如她這般誇張的寬緣帽,那帽子大的幾乎遮住她半張容顏,再加上用來遮蔽他人目光的黑紗,以及剪裁過於俐落貼身的連身黑裙,看起來就像是名盛裝出席葬禮的老寡婦。784Please respect copyright.PENANA1ylFuKmsVZ

即使在室內,蜜雪兒依然戴著那頂寬緣帽,她自若的拿起茶杯喝茶,全然不受影響,發覺我似乎在打量她的帽子,她以手撫臉,輕笑,「很在意嗎?」784Please respect copyright.PENANAH4NVOtBzoE

「沒辦法,你嫌我長得不好看嘛!」蜜雪兒的語調聽不出憤怒或憎恨,就連丁點惡意與不平也沒有,彷彿全盤接受我當年的評價,事實上,她可能真的接受,並且毫不懷疑,畢竟,隔著寬緣帽和黑紗,我仍舊可以感受到她的目光。784Please respect copyright.PENANA4TBmOS2VJK

單看那身羽毛,我就知道這名塞壬一定長得很好看,對此,蜜雪兒感到懷疑,她認為我那番說詞純粹是禮貌與客氣,實際上,我看到她的真面目後,可能會覺得精神受到莫大傷害。784Please respect copyright.PENANAyp8qZhDl7m

「不試試嗎?」784Please respect copyright.PENANA919EYjpr4p
784Please respect copyright.PENANAi8WN45SWC2
蜜雪兒的動作一頓,旋即自後方傳來她的輕笑,「怎麼會呢?吾王。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAtR94Rgp3a3
784Please respect copyright.PENANADbIwfrbnZ8
「對您來說,塞壬的歌聲就只是歌聲,不具有特別意義,既無法使您沉迷,也無法使您發狂,就算如此,聽聞美妙的歌曲,也能使您心情愉悅,是不?」784Please respect copyright.PENANAdf9yW3ZPsl
784Please respect copyright.PENANANN3ps2RFZ6
蜜雪兒說話的腔調開始產生變化。784Please respect copyright.PENANAYh4zlFGWpY
784Please respect copyright.PENANA7sxLgfDbaz
如果說,先頭她的聲音悅耳至極,現在的腔調則是天籟。784Please respect copyright.PENANAqAvY4y0T4I
784Please respect copyright.PENANATx4pZBaER4
塞壬的發音構造相當奇特,他們高歌時,可以隨著他們的意願,營造出二重唱、三重唱,甚至是一整個合唱團的聲勢,而且每個合音都悅耳無比。784Please respect copyright.PENANAs3852NXIfj
784Please respect copyright.PENANAkCDiqkn25l
人類只要聽過一次,就很難自其中逃脫。784Please respect copyright.PENANA3PZjX3sDFc
784Please respect copyright.PENANA2QH4rz05oX
再也沒有任何聲音或旋律可以打動他們的靈魂。784Please respect copyright.PENANA87pjTnvChF
784Please respect copyright.PENANADT9kNcYd2z
我可不是人類。784Please respect copyright.PENANApaqZYuJVQj
784Please respect copyright.PENANArqPH6nvehU
「無法取悅我的後果,妳想清楚了?」784Please respect copyright.PENANAPCwnuEL5zS
784Please respect copyright.PENANA6QlyfuRitZ
蜜雪兒沒有回答我的問題,塞壬奇特悠美的歌聲,悠悠揚起。784Please respect copyright.PENANAyNpqXSF96t
784Please respect copyright.PENANASt9MmDjfv8
不曾經耳聽聞塞壬歌聲的人,很難理解那是怎樣一個概念,就是天籟也難以描述他們複雜優美的聲音。784Please respect copyright.PENANALrTNkJErIh
784Please respect copyright.PENANAcsWlRPNXAR
他們吟唱時,一切彷彿陷入靜止。784Please respect copyright.PENANAVnRprWRX6z
784Please respect copyright.PENANA2U9EMz6K9Y
不管是時間,還是世界。784Please respect copyright.PENANAquZkKSgydO
784Please respect copyright.PENANAatbgeeTsJZ
所有的一切都在這瞬間受到隔離,又好似在另個世界,如此虛無,如此飄渺。784Please respect copyright.PENANAUJBTvl3a7b
784Please respect copyright.PENANAQlk0d2b8d4
這就是塞壬的能力,他們是天生的歌者,只要他們願意,他們可以憑藉歌聲將人引領到任何地方,山間、曠野、海洋、戰場,甚至是陰間與天堂。784Please respect copyright.PENANAyypjrF5kIm
784Please respect copyright.PENANAfEq7lfm4wV
只要他們願意。784Please respect copyright.PENANAZXpD0ZrQDp
784Please respect copyright.PENANAoX62Vf3A2q
他們的歌聲就是通往此處的鑰匙。784Please respect copyright.PENANAdAsUCWtAiS
784Please respect copyright.PENANAXBDu5btjmD
蜜雪兒的歌聲很輕,輕得哪怕傳到外頭,也是那麼細微模糊,但是,塞壬歌聲的魅惑性仍舊不容忽視。784Please respect copyright.PENANAuQjRwLdBDJ
784Please respect copyright.PENANAtBJiYyI7xY
不一會兒,外頭的喧鬧聲停了下來,陷入一片寂靜。784Please respect copyright.PENANARiaTNdXQTa
784Please respect copyright.PENANAwuPuv2zI1A
就好像所有人在經過這塊區域時,刻意放輕腳步、降低音量,就怕驚擾了不知身在何處的歌者。784Please respect copyright.PENANAzzLEWZQtkC
784Please respect copyright.PENANAZtZyP5bKFh
安德烈回來時,蜜雪兒正好唱完最後一首歌,他征征的看著那頂誇張寬緣帽,接著將視線移到蜜雪兒身上。784Please respect copyright.PENANAr0TXc1DkRO
784Please respect copyright.PENANAsOZiKt8qSy
他的表情明顯寫著,他沒法將方才聽見的美聲與眼前這位品味獨特的女性劃上等號。784Please respect copyright.PENANAaCcsWT591q
784Please respect copyright.PENANAdBVFuvDV1E
察覺他視線的蜜雪兒,維持相同,不,應該是比先前更加親密的姿勢,附於我耳邊,用著連安德烈也能清楚聽見的音量開口,「我愛你喔!」784Please respect copyright.PENANAcgDjKnd7ee
784Please respect copyright.PENANAcAFM6cJZCg
「伊安。」784Please respect copyright.PENANA92C9Eqnpjo
784Please respect copyright.PENANAqvSS4H2HIA
人類很難抵抗塞壬的甜言蜜語,尤其是當他們用著如此複雜的聲音訴說時,人類只會欣喜若狂,甚至有可能因為過度幸福而死去,同樣的話,聽在我耳裡,只是讓我不住嗤笑,「何其廉價的愛。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAD7nDKLGFqO
784Please respect copyright.PENANAOTqf98nyf6
蜜雪兒不以為意的輕笑,「我的目的達成了,下次再見。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAY8Uh0AhMJE
784Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6UFXv5E9J
我沒有阻止蜜雪兒離去,除了,她並不是我的目標,最重要的一點,她依然維持塞壬原有的聲音,身為人類的安德烈在場。784Please respect copyright.PENANAeqJEsFXd8k
784Please respect copyright.PENANAqIGs7GxdGU
人類抵擋不了塞壬的美聲。784Please respect copyright.PENANAR01LqBDNiB
784Please respect copyright.PENANAnfYx5rk5Qq
蜜雪兒顯然也很清楚這點,經過安德烈身邊時,驀地停下腳步,自寬緣帽中抽出一張名片,塞進安德烈衣領,「看在伊安的情份上,如果失眠,我可以為你唱首搖籃曲喔!」784Please respect copyright.PENANA4p3Rgkn3f7
784Please respect copyright.PENANA62C8v1xVij
「人類。」784Please respect copyright.PENANAccqAHveLgX
784Please respect copyright.PENANAHywPDAtuS0
蜜雪兒的話語,明顯透露出將她找來的傢伙,已經把安德烈的身份,以及引發這次事件的來龍去脈全都告訴她。784Please respect copyright.PENANAjM2PaYnZfx
784Please respect copyright.PENANAcEY2MqoeST
她暫時不打算離開。784Please respect copyright.PENANAok9mAYT6pP
784Please respect copyright.PENANAdwseKwDHxJ
蜜雪兒離開一段時間,安德烈還沒能完全自塞壬歌聲的影響中恢復,他用著可能連自己都不清楚,純粹是下意識的動作,自衣領內取出那張名片。784Please respect copyright.PENANA0KCgYsW1rR
784Please respect copyright.PENANAgI2Mrv7cXK
啊啊!塞壬的歌聲對人類來說,果然太刺激了。784Please respect copyright.PENANAsCRU22vqeg
784Please respect copyright.PENANAshFJpVJSdW
看著安德烈恍惚之中帶著一絲疑惑的神情,我嘆了口氣,走到他身邊,拿走蜜雪兒的名片,並將它撕得粉碎,丟進垃圾桶。784Please respect copyright.PENANA3vvMIRuPmk
784Please respect copyright.PENANAkNLYNVYJW4
有時,我真不知道該說安德烈是運氣差,還是運氣好,要知道,塞壬一般不輕易歌唱,就是想唱歌,也得偷偷摸摸找個沒人的地方。784Please respect copyright.PENANA6iDOhuE16f
784Please respect copyright.PENANAfzejHZkeXx
理由很簡單,塞壬的歌聲太美。784Please respect copyright.PENANA1MJ17VWHbE
784Please respect copyright.PENANAQwOJTuhfMd
不管是哪個神話,總將塞壬形容得萬惡不赦,好像他們一天不用歌聲迷惑人類,把人騙去送死就會渾身不舒服,事實上,塞壬很冤枉,非常非常的冤枉。784Please respect copyright.PENANAsnxJ0nzI8G
784Please respect copyright.PENANAVRPqfqrK2X
塞壬一族天生就喜愛唱歌,就好似人類在心情愉快時,會哼個兩句,洗澡興起時,也會唱個幾句一樣,差別只在,塞壬天生就有一副好歌喉,以及他們的歌聲對人類有著莫大吸引力和蠱惑性,除此之外,他們真的就只是喜歡唱歌,沒有任何惡意。784Please respect copyright.PENANA9HEj4EdJvX
784Please respect copyright.PENANAoTJb6YwwrA
他們甚至因為知曉自己的歌聲會對人類產生影響,每回想唱歌時,都得憋著一股熱情,急急忙忙趕到無人的海域才敢放聲歌唱。784Please respect copyright.PENANAUpf46XMiSs
784Please respect copyright.PENANA9kHgjKdVOk
誰也沒想到,塞壬已經跑到那麼偏僻的外海,人類還是能夠划船經過。784Please respect copyright.PENANAeApntBNxEl
784Please respect copyright.PENANAly2JflryW5
再來的事,壓根不用再說,單看那些神話就知道,壓根沒想過會有人類出現的塞壬盡情高歌,不幸經過的人類就這樣忘了自己在海上,一心想去圍觀美聲天籟,跌進海裡死了。784Please respect copyright.PENANArLpaPT8Dql
784Please respect copyright.PENANAw8LehKTWa9
等塞壬唱過癮,發覺事情不妙時,滿船人類幾乎全跳進海裡,死得差不多了。784Please respect copyright.PENANAZa29Kma0NZ
784Please respect copyright.PENANAu3u27maAQH
大驚失色的塞壬連忙趕去探視,試著從裡頭找出沒死透的人類再搶救一波,沒想到,後頭又出現新的船隻,恰好目睹塞壬撈人的一幕,於是,塞壬以歌聲蠱惑人類送死,再把人類吃掉的傳聞越演越烈。784Please respect copyright.PENANAu3KAxDOQ6G
784Please respect copyright.PENANAb8WyHorXo8
「你們運氣可真夠背的。」連住在深海裡的美人魚們,也常一臉同情的這麼告訴塞壬。784Please respect copyright.PENANAGRhvvwRa59
784Please respect copyright.PENANAEHmSfM8xJE
鑑於這些經驗,哪怕後來塞壬和其他怪物一樣,融入人類世界,他們也幾乎都選擇和唱歌無關的職業。784Please respect copyright.PENANA7Ix8nBPpgk
784Please respect copyright.PENANAWuvIJe0isV
比起其他塞壬,蜜雪兒心裡似乎有點陰影。784Please respect copyright.PENANAzJqFwi3BEW
784Please respect copyright.PENANA8CbofsZqFk
蜜雪兒曾經獨自一人跑到大西洋的冰山上頭歌唱。784Please respect copyright.PENANAXkseH2dbZ6
784Please respect copyright.PENANArqm309AB0s
就在她唱到最開心時,一艘郵輪出現在她面前,嚇得她連忙噤聲,但還是晚了一步,負責眺望的水手已經癡迷,壓根沒發現冰山的存在。784Please respect copyright.PENANAlqe8zBf8MG
784Please respect copyright.PENANAUxeDoKLfAJ
最後,郵輪撞擊冰山,沉了。784Please respect copyright.PENANA9ASh1Yz4ud
784Please respect copyright.PENANA7reBhytPuA
從那之後,蜜雪兒再也不相信世上還有什麼地方是人類去不了的,「可以讓塞壬沒有心理壓力和顧忌盡情唱歌的樂園,根本不存在!」784Please respect copyright.PENANAabaoJAa2g9
784Please respect copyright.PENANAAtR9LjLOBY
蜜雪兒當年如此悲痛的訴說,一票塞壬心有戚戚焉。784Please respect copyright.PENANAHYWCQrumvL
784Please respect copyright.PENANAbKZ4T5myTL
因為這件事,哪怕蜜雪兒今天到我這來唱了幾首歌,流洩到外頭的細微歌聲令人類聽得如癡如醉,但,那並不是蜜雪兒的全部實力,嚴格來說,今天的蜜雪兒連塞壬之聲的百分之一都沒有發揮。784Please respect copyright.PENANA9P45Yz8u1Q
784Please respect copyright.PENANAL10srfRXga
單是如此,首當直衝的安德烈,依舊被迷得恍惚忘我。784Please respect copyright.PENANA7PPdmNEo0Y
784Please respect copyright.PENANAy055uZMviD
外頭的人類就算了,他們並沒能清楚聽見蜜雪兒的歌聲,頂多就是覺得自己作了場美夢,聽到了優美如天籟的歌曲,安德烈不同,雖然丟著他不管,他遲早會回神,但那得花多久時間,我一點也不敢保證,想到這,我有些無力以手撫額。784Please respect copyright.PENANAPLw1zZy2cv
784Please respect copyright.PENANAwMJ6CYRHIq
「我都不知道該怎麼說你才好了。」我將手指劃破,待血液自傷口流出,將手指湊到安德烈唇前。784Please respect copyright.PENANA8JI7xVpInC
784Please respect copyright.PENANApBAL1XvoRU
一想到賽門未來要是知道這事,我就覺得頭疼。784Please respect copyright.PENANA9xdtPgjVEi
