父親死後，史密斯列車好久沒這麼安靜了。奧斯卡跪在一具黑色的棺材前，雙手十指交叉，低頭禱告，希望他的兄弟能安息。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1fqz9zMxS
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8ESwhj2Ys
五天前，泰勒的屍體被人發現。他跪坐著、手裡握著貫穿他身體的刀，看起來像自殺。史密斯所有人悲痛欲絕，奧斯卡也暫停計畫，優先處理泰勒的後事。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqZf5xdehA
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvSFBC5pJn
雖然行駛在大西洋下的海底隧道、無法為泰勒下葬，但史密斯列車有幾具特殊棺材，能防止大體腐壞；還有設計成教堂的車廂，能為死者禱告。因此，奧斯卡不擔心泰勒的後事，而是泰勒的死因，他覺得很不對勁。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ie3BghGuM
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpILTXfXO2g
那天中午，泰勒跟他討論計畫，看起來毫無異狀。奧斯卡相信泰勒是被殺死的，但兇手是誰？他們行駛在海底隧道，與世隔絕，犯人只可能是其他史密斯。想到這，奧斯卡便睜開眼睛、停止禱告，思索哪位弟妹的可能性最大。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xpsXnc2Qt
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxnE4Q3xGw
「奧斯卡哥哥。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCfKSFC3JG
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVaurwvGkl
奧斯卡身後突然傳來女孩的聲音。他回頭，老四特蕾莎．史密斯（Teresa Smith）坐在輪椅上，來到奧斯卡身後。她是個陰沉的女孩，金色的長髮蓋住她的臉，只露出一顆灰色的眼睛，及臉頰上的雀斑。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZ742wZsz9
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqqE53K8DC
「怎麼啦，特蕾莎？」奧斯卡打起精神，露出符合他紅色頭髮的開朗微笑，以免弟妹擔心。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcgkH3oImO
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1naJkSQtmv
「給泰勒哥哥的禱告，換我來吧。」特蕾莎有氣無力地說：「你去看一下艾琳姊姊，比較好。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWKMU8GVNs
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYvhbmSkKQ
「艾琳？」奧斯卡眨了眨眼，「她怎麼了？」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuA6SodY9JL
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3bIYNRkYg
「……昨天晚上，又開始了。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx31qAz0Dq4
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ76mWz4eJZ
看到特蕾莎的表情，奧斯卡就知道發生什麼，於是聽妹妹的話，朝艾琳的房間走去。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbQzyPPP8w
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoj4GCbktJ
艾琳排行老三，是奧斯卡最自豪的妹妹。她精明、能幹，什麼表演都難不倒，也是史密斯馬戲團最有觀眾緣的表演者，但兄弟姐妹都知道，艾琳得了一種怪病。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnovDfLO6Yw
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSyJ7sAnCJ
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajz6edVLi9
「啊啊！啊啊啊啊啊啊！啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqmBBWcFKs
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvG0nfCG8N
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeVuuT6i2f
穿過一節節車廂，還沒走到艾琳的房間，奧斯卡就聽見她的尖叫。房裡的艾琳不知道用什麼東西撞擊牆壁，震耳欲聾的「磅！」、「磅！」聲讓奧斯卡非常著急，也非常害怕，開門前一度陷入猶豫。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjaHHGD5ed
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIWZWSA9Xg
「艾琳！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQI3tQ33ze
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0b2Hc1w9KB
但手足之情，奧斯卡還是開門。艾琳原本黑色牆壁的房間，被潑滿了紅色、黃色、橘色的油漆。艾琳人站在十幾個油漆桶之間，各種顏色的油漆混雜在身上，猶如一隻被石油汙染的海鷗。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2U9yIBllxa
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18bEtgsgm9
「啊啊！啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8U0ai2qi3P
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSYHSgio3Y
艾琳的長髮全部黏在臉上。她用指甲抓自己的臉，喉嚨擠出破碎的尖叫。奧斯卡衝上前，來不及關心，艾琳就把他壓倒在地，兩手掐住奧斯卡的脖子。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHHP5THSui
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8R6GbyHgw
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TLkJNwpnM
「尼…尼可……尼可……！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwu1sSnuWR0
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhB9uKNdopI
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlEeai6G6y
艾琳瞋大的藍色眼睛瞪著奧斯卡，嘴巴開始碎念聽不懂的話。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEnot1sGxY
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuOgatfPCI
「尼可……在哪裡……！我的寶貝……尼可……！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhjetzYskn
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Etv1EPldy
「唔……艾琳！艾琳！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOMCKi94X8
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcFLcyaNa6
奧斯卡的頭髮和衣服也被染上油漆。他抓著艾琳的手，脖子被掐得十分難受。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpjcb6csTr
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7FLaaT75I
「你是誰！？你是誰！？尼可在哪裡……在哪裡！！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJjEuhCwsg
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwb6CFBaoo
「艾琳……是我！我是哥哥！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMkgxy68D1
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFk7Uypf7a
奧斯卡不得不採取蠻橫的手段。他一拳打到艾琳臉上，多虧如此，艾琳掐他脖子的手終於放開，摔到一攤黃色的油漆裡。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeHMGmq53W
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aQOMPYI1Z
「醒醒，艾琳！我是哥哥！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tNvua9oTr
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2K1HTOBlyj
「哥哥……不！不是！你才不是我哥哥……！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZx2gdUtdJ
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU1q3rSNKx
「混帳！妳給我看清楚！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEl4fTyuWlB
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBChM4kpW4
奧斯卡一手抓住艾琳的肩膀，另一手從後面揪住艾琳的頭髮，強迫妹妹與自己直視。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrmA8iNeJ1
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gLPWuj3GM
「艾琳．史密斯！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFjQYpTb2n
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qIxYj38Qi
奧斯卡對她大吼：651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmq6PJCfmNA
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvhBrubAcF
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDdZ2X0UOG
「她是艾琳，她是史密斯！我不管妳是誰，滾出我妹妹的身體！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJtobAWGU3
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkTo3tSnF8
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZG5p2qYuw
「……！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrH7OOFUNW2
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQQ35jgkcQ
奧斯卡的話起了功效。下一秒，艾琳摀著臉，一會在地上打滾，一會弓起身子。她尖叫、咆哮，嗓子都已經叫啞，開始乾嘔。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpGSk0D8sN
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yz1xyctCe
「嗚嗚……啊啊……嗚啊……！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KWfiMwCPL
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHxYGcrBPw
眼淚從艾琳的眼裡流出來。她看向奧斯卡，雙目終於聚焦，臉也回復人類應有的血色。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XQDu9dprX
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBStkdvZlZL
「哥哥……天啊！哥哥！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdq0tde1oR
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YQhd3IjY4
艾琳回來了。看到奧斯卡脖子上的掐痕，她哭著問：「我對你做了什麼？你的脖子……我剛剛打算殺死你嗎？」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3ddguPn8E
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7oaEMvhbI
「沒事，沒事。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycwXZ3QPOu
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrQxeM6yJQ
奧斯卡總算放下心來。他指著脖子，開玩笑地說：「這是我自己畫的，很逼真吧，哈哈！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO26uwOJ2q0
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwCJcqCvhe
「少騙人了！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYmuA48lUi
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vHJ2Yx5oe
艾琳抱住奧斯卡，哭著罵：「哥哥，你有什麼毛病，還有心情開玩笑！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJ3l1wOaNv
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EkViZ1sWJ
「我是馬戲團團長，逗人開心是我的工作。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsbKnlmlj6
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12ZZ0rWEZe
奧斯卡抱著艾琳，一手輕拍她的背，同時，雖然艾琳的頭髮被油漆染得亂七八糟，奧斯卡還是發現，妹妹的髮色越來越淡，逐漸從漂亮的深褐色，變成銀白色。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxO6BF5cw5
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EulUe50Ga
「妳沒事就好。」奧斯卡親親艾琳的臉頰，「泰勒走了，我不能再失去妳。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDN9DpZdiNj
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vleHgVo46
「我知道，對不起……！」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBCosmTiBf
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUt06CoEM7
艾琳在奧斯卡身上哭了五分鐘。哭完後，她打起精神，朝奧斯卡露出放心的笑容。她請哥哥先離開，因為她需要時間清洗自己，也得處理一團亂的房間。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRbo6mJQ7x
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLM0pslbJAg
確認人沒事，奧斯卡離開艾琳的房間，排行第四的特蕾莎在走廊等他。少女坐在輪椅上，表情僵硬地盯著奧斯卡，「怎麼樣？」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EfuH8URJh
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI2RIGWQSb
奧斯卡沒有回話，反問特蕾莎：「今天有什麼新聞？」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVdeN9hpSf
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXT5tBwPDQE
「B區有個工人，受不了老闆壓榨和超時工作，昨晚上吊自殺了。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4NJOlsZRp
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbikaMjGEP
特蕾莎知道奧斯卡想問什麼，補了句：「是個油漆工人。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmVXo7n21b
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQBEkY77df
「……。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XnRvPaxhx
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡus0ak403Ua
奧斯卡的表情非常凝重。他深吸一口氣，告訴特蕾莎：「再這樣下去，艾琳會消失。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXENpvHxbi3
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzj0AcLdvP
「嗯。」特蕾莎點頭，「所以？」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUDLCmMWFr
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVYXkAhCmN
「妳幫我調查『尼可』。」奧斯卡說：「我要確認，艾琳身體裡的，是不是那個人。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhNAd8M7eU
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9Lvp5gRGR
「OK。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cgd8TPSYF
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmP6C8qbBW
特蕾莎面前有個觸控面板，她平時都用這個操控輪椅。就在她準備離開時，特蕾莎突然想到什麼，將輪椅轉向奧斯卡。651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZlpPn39aZ
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1iJVctLOs
「如果真的是那個人，」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RFlS1Iydr
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCia3UznkI
特蕾莎問：「奧斯卡哥哥，殺死艾琳姐姐的工作，能讓給我嗎？」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTJ1wzgeLY
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbqKTlEKog
「可以。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJbIlKJstR
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMYm2JRcET
奧斯卡把頭轉到另一邊，「我下不了手，交給妳了。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdxrkXJIOm
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIEip8l5Ax
「謝謝奧斯卡哥哥。」651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu5Nr4Mg8Z
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBMBYX8IK0
特蕾莎微笑，「泰勒哥哥一定會很高興。」
