潔姬當然記得清楚,她初來乍到雷納普時,第一次與克拉克上校的談話——從雷納普的舊屋內醒來,她只發現自己身穿一件單薄的白色洋裝,往日赤裸走在漆黑的草地上,懷有那些狂亂的情緒,宛如就只是一場漫長的惡夢。47Please respect copyright.PENANAAUr3AkXZrh
47Please respect copyright.PENANA0eyrJ0gWVB
她走出屋外,此時太陽剛升起,東方泛起橘黃色的曙光,寧靜中帶有一股香氛的青草味,而有一人坐在屋外不遠的湖畔——正是克拉克上校。47Please respect copyright.PENANA9nwUfAwedn
47Please respect copyright.PENANAu2GoSCQ5R9
畢竟市民仍害怕這位與變異機械獸無異的改造士兵,上校理所當然擔任守夜的職責,避免潔姬傷害無辜民眾。47Please respect copyright.PENANA4EJroOPhUx
47Please respect copyright.PENANA2dDRhkTLFC
「你還好嗎?」47Please respect copyright.PENANAwRzJeKktNa
47Please respect copyright.PENANA3TZFnUfyRC
「嗯,冷靜下來了。」47Please respect copyright.PENANA5JGnqWC8rI
47Please respect copyright.PENANAa3qtykdmDN
克拉克背對著潔姬,相信她說的冷靜,只望著波光粼粼的水面,開口問道:「潔姬,你還記得你的“前世”嗎?」47Please respect copyright.PENANAvANBDkQHTt
47Please respect copyright.PENANArtLnbqzI24
所謂“前世”,在這裡指的並非宗教上的名詞,而是改造士兵在被改造前——仍不是隸屬於企業的造物——時的人生與記憶。據說只有少數士兵能憶起過去,然則多數人都像是電腦重灌一般,將一切忘得一乾二淨,渡過第二個被企業支配的人生。47Please respect copyright.PENANAScdQnik8Wj
47Please respect copyright.PENANAsYnHgIiMW4
「老實說,我不記得了。」潔姬自嘲一笑:「但肯定是無藥可救,才會選擇這條路吧?」47Please respect copyright.PENANAkcqtai34hK
47Please respect copyright.PENANATWTatjUh4S
「呵呵,是啊。」克拉克看了看自己改造的雙臂,並有力地握住:「我也不記得了,但聽說過去企業政府在改造士兵的實驗裡都是從重刑犯下手……也許我們天性就是罪人,所以才被改造成專門用來殺戮的機器。」47Please respect copyright.PENANAE3Rh2Z9OPT
47Please respect copyright.PENANAdMyeFpwqU1
潔姬也無從辯駁,現在腦海中仍只有血腥的畫面、如何破壞人體結構的方式,以及殺害生靈時,電流竄過全身的興奮感。47Please respect copyright.PENANAOp9xKjck04
47Please respect copyright.PENANA2g6zuzfIna
「從前的人生已經充滿太多、太多的殺戮……如同野獸一般,只會破壞、不懂得創造。」上校仰望淡藍色的天空,細細說道:「如今,支配我們的企業政府也不復存在。新人生不如試著去了解如何作為『人』而活下去,也不錯吧?」47Please respect copyright.PENANAFPBmzLUeQj
47Please respect copyright.PENANAFn1Urnanm5
潔姬如陶瓷娃娃般的臉龐,依舊僵硬地沒有任何變化,可“作為人”的那句話銘印在她的心海,別於被其他狂亂渾沌填滿的感官受器,眼眶早已落下兩行淚水。47Please respect copyright.PENANAMBFjhPG2eZ
47Please respect copyright.PENANAiZSeDjVRAx
「……我會的。」47Please respect copyright.PENANA06YhSvC1EO
47Please respect copyright.PENANABzZ6vDlJLB
「歡迎來到雷納普。」上校這才轉頭面對她,順便對潔姬後方的樹叢招了招手。47Please respect copyright.PENANAPaHkXgCWAB
47Please respect copyright.PENANASH6EcUri5J
「這樣都被你發現?」樹叢發出“唰唰”一聲,總是好奇的米拉從中探出頭來,而且毫不避諱地走近。47Please respect copyright.PENANAcwgjOPO4OS
47Please respect copyright.PENANAKVXPGY0Q4P
「潔姬,這位是米蘭達・沃寧,是雷納普的居民。」47Please respect copyright.PENANAgUl6WXuqml
47Please respect copyright.PENANAKmd3sKQEuf
「你好。」潔姬擦拭眼淚,試圖擠出笑容,不過弄巧成拙,看起來像是掛了一抹陰險的奸笑。47Please respect copyright.PENANAcGOnnX2CWu
47Please respect copyright.PENANAlCfYX2WGIB
「你、你好,叫我米拉就好,我是這裡的自由業兼技師……呃,握手就免了,我不想骨折。」47Please respect copyright.PENANAccuxgVlPFV
47Please respect copyright.PENANAPHU7ZCi3I3
初次見面,米拉卻先退縮,覺得眼前這名改造士兵的顏面神經是不是整組壞光光了。47Please respect copyright.PENANAZfy4W1Ozya
47Please respect copyright.PENANAjpxkBhZfjB
「總之,雷納普的大小事讓我為你介紹吧!」47Please respect copyright.PENANA9nk2kO8SIy
