這三週下來,潔姬實在受盡折磨。寢不安席,食不甘味,其實就像在刀口上的牲畜一般,已經進入某種恍惚的精神狀態。47Please respect copyright.PENANA9gxwy8Feng
47Please respect copyright.PENANAot9t3eXAPW
老約翰的威武事蹟似乎在男人的酒吧中傳開了,雷納普的男士們一見潔姬就知道她是個人盡可夫的妓女——不,就只是用來發泄性慾的牲畜。那些男人每晚都潛入她的房間,並用脅迫的方式強姦了潔姬。47Please respect copyright.PENANAVTJDm0UTVs
47Please respect copyright.PENANAo89dNJ8qS0
燈總是亮著,疲累不堪的潔姬就只是躺在床上,在做不算休息的休息,雙眼就如同房間沒有鎖上的門一直盯著門,隨時都會有人過來這裡。47Please respect copyright.PENANAuUFVhFFsIN
47Please respect copyright.PENANAu3Rt8bn43I
雷納普的人們,為什麼淪喪至此?47Please respect copyright.PENANAazc0HDUILN
47Please respect copyright.PENANATKPRGZs2Mt
果不其然,門打開了。47Please respect copyright.PENANAV2lJBNCwVM
47Please respect copyright.PENANA6YkE7k5ioH
這次她家來了三個訪客,分別是果農老約翰的太太、裁縫麗莎,以及貝克太太——她們用鞭打的方式打醒潔姬,並強迫她坐在床上。47Please respect copyright.PENANAoERqf9WGIV
47Please respect copyright.PENANA0wNRSxMWg0
她們眼神哀怨地盯著潔姬,像是在訴說苦痛。47Please respect copyright.PENANA7q0p7cAWTQ
47Please respect copyright.PENANA7OicjayxkZ
「你以為我不知道嗎?」老果農的結髮妻子哽咽說道:「在果園,我正要給老公送水的路上……你居然……嗚……」47Please respect copyright.PENANAY8ou1bbpLE
47Please respect copyright.PENANA33M2H8T0Bd
「沒事的,說出來……」麗莎輕拍約翰太太,並冷眼看待一臉無辜的潔姬。47Please respect copyright.PENANALSdz04oFeo
47Please respect copyright.PENANA2th3bms0Rp
「約翰都跟我說了,是你勾引他……」約翰太太情緒潰堤,雙手捂臉痛哭。47Please respect copyright.PENANANCwGTmZo9T
47Please respect copyright.PENANArjv8jGMi8m
「你這個蕩婦!」貝克太太指著潔姬的鼻子怒喝:「你想討好我們,對吧?但是用這種方式?下賤的婊子!」47Please respect copyright.PENANA07fAKntgiE
47Please respect copyright.PENANA1RefEd8zLA
約翰太太深呼吸幾口換氣,嚴正警告:「我覺得家醜不可外揚,所以來這裡給你一些教訓……麗莎。」47Please respect copyright.PENANAeKutDMPdZz
47Please respect copyright.PENANAnBAJ7U13Hp
麗莎從潔姬房間的衣櫃中,拿出那一套華麗的黑色喪服,那是她在雷納普最珍視的服裝。47Please respect copyright.PENANAMPNCiEUmpw
47Please respect copyright.PENANA2TIUtnWsPJ
「啊……」潔姬想說些什麼,卻被麗莎打斷。47Please respect copyright.PENANALoYSroVf5h
47Please respect copyright.PENANAC6D6qz42tJ
「反正你的欠款也付不出來,這衣服有一半還是我的。」47Please respect copyright.PENANAelCEQRazc1
47Please respect copyright.PENANAr844iBuRje
麗莎將衣服交給約翰太太,至於約翰太太拿出一把大剪刀,鋒利的刀刃透出冰冷的光亮,抵在衣服的蕾絲上。47Please respect copyright.PENANAB8H2fkYEs4
47Please respect copyright.PENANAei62cWD8t5
「不要,求求您……」潔姬覺得世界就快要崩塌,這件不僅代表她的美學、也是她任務的成就、更是她與雷納普的美好回憶,以及那個她穿上就會稱讚她的人……47Please respect copyright.PENANAJTpMMc1L3p
47Please respect copyright.PENANAcj7aST7oea
“唰——”刀口無情,就剪在衣服的正中間,繼續剪出一個個痕跡、孔洞,也剪在潔姬的心上,明明是個改造士兵,她的胸口卻感到一股酸澀、苦楚。47Please respect copyright.PENANA7l6qHf7ILi
47Please respect copyright.PENANA2Q3AUh82tG
雷納普的女人們繼續她們的作業,將這件華美的黑衣剪成一塊塊的碎布,之後丟在地板上,潔姬無力下床,是爬著、抱著這塊碎布嚎哭,淚水滲入黑衣,這件喪服正發揮它原本的用途……47Please respect copyright.PENANAYNLaiqSVLA
47Please respect copyright.PENANA4jQxxqV0KG
悲愴。47Please respect copyright.PENANA4uKNj6jgyR
47Please respect copyright.PENANAQgKLkly08k
「嗚嗚嗚嗚嗚……」47Please respect copyright.PENANANYddPCA8Hp
47Please respect copyright.PENANAzfiKcbQcPV
「聽到沒有,遵守我們應當遵守的。」雷納普的母親、妻子與女兒看著痛苦的潔姬,不斷說教:「希望你能檢討你的行為,殺人兇手!」47Please respect copyright.PENANAKRDG06MSzj
47Please respect copyright.PENANATtNBvIalX2
米拉正好目睹,看到這霸凌情景實在無法置信。47Please respect copyright.PENANASMtSJ5OvOK
47Please respect copyright.PENANAuDNgFfic9f
「到底怎麼了……你們……怎麼了?」47Please respect copyright.PENANAXtFoQOGhIu
47Please respect copyright.PENANAuJjVWkPVWA
「哼,你也少跟這種垃圾混,一切都是她自作自受!」她們掉頭就走。47Please respect copyright.PENANAcYUzflok7U
47Please respect copyright.PENANA3xkV4Nfsru
米拉此時只能抱住潔姬,她不知道該說什麼,難道身為外來者的她,就只有被排擠的份嗎?47Please respect copyright.PENANABqER5qXiRL
47Please respect copyright.PENANA7jq8K52ut4
「我不在的這期間,到底發生什麼事了?你跟我說……」米拉著急地都快哭了,雙手不斷拍著她顫抖的背。47Please respect copyright.PENANA2dF2x20PmD
47Please respect copyright.PENANAb8qmXgj40M
可潔姬什麼也不說,只是一直抽泣,將布料都拉皺了。47Please respect copyright.PENANAG9kkDu2wRP
47Please respect copyright.PENANAwYwQRtExHb
米拉發現,也許現在還不是向她講“西方教會”的事,必須先處理受到欺負的事情。47Please respect copyright.PENANA32g3EV7tbX
47Please respect copyright.PENANAbQPLNKceeb
「潔姬,你別擔心。」米拉用手撫摸她的頭,也輕輕地用唇貼上她的耳際:「我去找克拉克上校談,他一定能瞭解的。」47Please respect copyright.PENANAyILnE1gaiu
