2161年2月18日,晚上九點,黑教堂438Please respect copyright.PENANAafMCzZetNK
438Please respect copyright.PENANAOodlEKIOSg
438Please respect copyright.PENANAfvSUOzD3z5
一個月後,檸檬帶著行李廂,和里奧一同來到薩拉凱爾教的根據地──黑教堂。這裡位於宗教人文藝術D區,地理位置為東歐,是一個充滿宗教、藝術、音樂,古典氣息濃厚的一區,街景非常美麗。438Please respect copyright.PENANAqIM8NkkhNs
438Please respect copyright.PENANAqno3WOIrvo
「……。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAP4BbVeOvCo
438Please respect copyright.PENANAYvivYSgr4s
這不是靜音模式,里奧和檸檬這對父女走在一起,通常不會說話。黑教堂位於山上,還有很長一段路要走。里奧的大手牽著檸檬的小手,走著,走著,檸檬發現里奧的步伐越來越慢,最後在中間的路段停下來,還是沒說話。438Please respect copyright.PENANAHsijXtAolX
438Please respect copyright.PENANAzpADaCtJEM
二月的D區很冷,正在下雪,檸檬的每一下呼吸都伴隨煙霧。她看著里奧,里奧卻沒有看她,兩眼凝視著遠方的黑教堂,不知道在想什麼。438Please respect copyright.PENANAeSWPCf5aPC
438Please respect copyright.PENANAYYevUy8b00
「爸比……?」438Please respect copyright.PENANAfD93U8n5Vc
438Please respect copyright.PENANAD1gVdypczj
檸檬小聲呼喚,里奧終於回神、低頭看她。兩雙琉璃色的眼睛對在一起,檸檬的雙眼如此清澈。438Please respect copyright.PENANAZtOKMINaSU
438Please respect copyright.PENANAGjTdBwCs72
「……安琪。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAN6i9Aj9d0t
438Please respect copyright.PENANALmVsa5j3VL
里奧蹲下身,與那雙清澈的眼睛平視。438Please respect copyright.PENANAOcmWuqAHOC
438Please respect copyright.PENANAWLrOetw7rL
「我只送妳到這。剩下的路,妳要自己走。」438Please respect copyright.PENANATABk8yxPSv
438Please respect copyright.PENANAuR9e7fe5ZH
清澈的眼睛閃過悲傷。檸檬抓著里奧的衣服,小聲地說:「爸比,我好怕……」438Please respect copyright.PENANAUscd0iI9GY
438Please respect copyright.PENANA414x2DU28w
「……。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAkSqt8EKwtq
438Please respect copyright.PENANAHaOFWN3pyq
里奧沒說話,將檸檬擁入懷中,用溫暖的擁抱取代冬天的寒冷。438Please respect copyright.PENANADc6vDc5ofH
438Please respect copyright.PENANARAKKK43wb1
「沒事的,安琪。」里奧說:「這裡是媽咪的家,她會保護妳,會一直在妳身邊。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAZp1ANEtuvM
438Please respect copyright.PENANAM4tG8o3VYF
檸檬沒有見過雪檸,只從神與畜口中耳聞,知道她是非常溫柔的人;然而,比起看不見的媽媽,她更希望爸爸不要離開,希望這個擁抱不要結束。438Please respect copyright.PENANA9R9ZNfukUp
438Please respect copyright.PENANAgMqrJYaDiW
「給妳。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAl0GRcv3Cow
438Please respect copyright.PENANAu24cLRJyEm
爸爸還是放開了她。里奧從口袋拿出一個金色的懷錶,放到檸檬手中。438Please respect copyright.PENANAkKLDbLtTmz
438Please respect copyright.PENANA3lL8TyoUK4
「這是妳爺爺的東西。」里奧說:「害怕時,把它當成我、當成姑姑、當成哥哥。記住,妳是懷特,妳不是一個人。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAnmu0izjZ3Y
438Please respect copyright.PENANAJHq779pokg
檸檬點頭,將懷錶收到口袋中。堅強的女孩抹掉眼淚,自己接過行李箱的把手,告訴里奧:「爸比,你們不用擔心,我一定會完成任務,請等我的好消息。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAxB2T0CukZK
438Please respect copyright.PENANAiTNb4Ilsj8
永遠一號表情的里奧笑了。他摸摸檸檬的頭,然後起身,跟女兒道別。438Please respect copyright.PENANA0mCZAWZZnP
438Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9GbcUzVsc
「我相信妳。」里奧說:「我們都相信妳。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAU3UbRmwES8
438Please respect copyright.PENANAYuhTBYOd57
「嗯。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAwXFdQGlcYs
438Please respect copyright.PENANAkStsCcRZja
語畢,里奧轉身,朝出口的方向走去;檸檬也轉身,拖著行李箱,朝黑教堂的大門走。空氣乾冷,行李箱很重,但檸檬的體質早就異於常人,這點程度不會讓她吃力。438Please respect copyright.PENANAzgaA9NflWF
438Please respect copyright.PENANAum60HwNQBo
走著走著,和黑教堂的距離越來越近。檸檬發現一群穿著黑色教袍的人站在門口,似乎是來迎接她的。438Please respect copyright.PENANAZdBGUeMekw
438Please respect copyright.PENANAqK4mbzMfnq
「噢,親愛的安琪,見到妳真好!」438Please respect copyright.PENANAv5jv3uIieU
438Please respect copyright.PENANACyVFj3BUe7
站在最前面、教袍明顯比其他人華麗的中年男子走上前,檸檬一眼就認出他的身分──薩拉凱爾教教主──賴霜原。438Please respect copyright.PENANA9uKBNLKCYY
438Please respect copyright.PENANAYi2t8kWgsc
「您好。」檸檬非常有禮貌地鞠躬,「接下來的日子,請多指教。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAUejYdbNmgY
438Please respect copyright.PENANA3YG25gqPuO
「哎呀,不用這麼拘謹。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAvn6PvKIRJS
438Please respect copyright.PENANARtXQ4Fg8sW
賴霜原蹲下身。檸檬近距離看他,賴霜原長得一副……出乎預料,不管左看右看,只能用「慈眉善目」四字形容。年紀目測五十歲,歲月雖然在他臉上留下痕跡,但不論五官、表情、氣質、聲音,都散發慈祥的氛圍,這種氣場是裝不出來的。438Please respect copyright.PENANAwOwyI86jeQ
438Please respect copyright.PENANADwR17Cog6L
「安琪,不用這麼生疏,叫我大舅舅就好。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAzJuL5XSlC3
438Please respect copyright.PENANAMHadlLeMaN
賴霜原是雪檸的大哥。論輩分,檸檬是他的外甥女。438Please respect copyright.PENANAKpHAdq2jXn
438Please respect copyright.PENANAp1zuOtaJ6W
「里奧沒有一起來嗎?」賴霜原問。438Please respect copyright.PENANA6mNi7TFg2f
438Please respect copyright.PENANAi5GgTzHU1C
「爸比先離開了。」檸檬回答。438Please respect copyright.PENANA2S45aHDxDd
438Please respect copyright.PENANAw6DeADK1Um
「真可惜,原本想跟他打招呼的。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAt2LzFsKXiA
438Please respect copyright.PENANAFRgQ9J29nz
里奧是賴霜原的妹婿,但里奧和他們的交集不多,他對妻子的老家似乎不太關心。438Please respect copyright.PENANAdXp9jd1r4e
438Please respect copyright.PENANALEVT24i0Mn
「天啊,看看那孩子。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAIPSWrH9Lvh
438Please respect copyright.PENANAdVZAcZfkrY
「好像雪檸。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAYmDpElo9nl
438Please respect copyright.PENANA7qUCr8Q44H
「真的好像雪檸。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAOVV3BmzcLs
438Please respect copyright.PENANAVcBqeMXsIl
「除了眼睛顏色,幾乎一模一樣……」438Please respect copyright.PENANAofcwTTvEGl
438Please respect copyright.PENANARQvopje31k
後面站著一群穿黑色教袍的人,每個都在竊竊私語。檸檬在心裡數了一下,發現加上賴霜原,在場總共十三人,其中十一個人的教袍款式都一樣,可見這十一人的位階差不多。在最旁邊,有一個人的教袍款式很明顯,跟那十一人不同,和賴霜原的款式相似,沒那麼華麗。438Please respect copyright.PENANApvDA2edUIO
438Please respect copyright.PENANAcymn1HgXBH
不注意到這個人真的很難,因為他的髮型很顯眼,頭髮梳得很高,染成深藍色,看起來像三十幾歲的不良,脖子以下卻穿著黑色教袍,給人的感覺很衝突。438Please respect copyright.PENANA7C3ruRnzHb
438Please respect copyright.PENANAFlNyw6cyz5
「……!」438Please respect copyright.PENANAHxTT0H8048
438Please respect copyright.PENANA4CP86ycOHP
因為一直盯著人家,那個人用凶惡的眼神反瞪回來,嚇了檸檬一跳。438Please respect copyright.PENANAtVoHEMCbrx
438Please respect copyright.PENANAOYaZ9NlEsq
這個人是怎麼回事……?檸檬這麼想時,賴霜原就告訴她:「安琪,我們這裡的生活很不一樣,不用擔心,我會請一個人帶妳適應環境。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAGtfzn6uyiV
438Please respect copyright.PENANAUyTmnlbA9t
說完,賴霜原轉頭,對那個兇惡的人說:「冰河,之後麻煩你照顧安琪。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAvNMiSQAOka
438Please respect copyright.PENANAzqlGye0qmp
「哈!?」438Please respect copyright.PENANAdZLmwlA64P
438Please respect copyright.PENANAMKDGaqtvCu
那個人非常錯愕,顯然他事先不知道。438Please respect copyright.PENANAMTKsQrIHnk
438Please respect copyright.PENANAV6XTj8YwhH
「安琪,這位是賴冰河,我的弟弟,也是妳媽媽的二哥。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAvoCcp8FtEE
438Please respect copyright.PENANAqouGWE9QoF
「???」438Please respect copyright.PENANAIscOFGFk0p
438Please respect copyright.PENANAolSDQsDOO8
言下之意,這個穿教袍的不良是她小舅舅,得知這個消息的檸檬也很錯愕。後面十一人又開始竊竊私語,但被賴冰河狠狠一瞪,全部閉上嘴、立正站好。438Please respect copyright.PENANANs4C5nVG7p
438Please respect copyright.PENANANfTjNzHfQJ
「大哥,我可沒答應這種事!」438Please respect copyright.PENANAvcZrQ8Ant3
438Please respect copyright.PENANAgAMKtNhvll
賴冰河走到賴霜原旁邊,但賴霜原不怕他,好聲好氣地說:「冰河,她是雪檸的孩子,我們要負責照顧她。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAFN68dPinFZ
438Please respect copyright.PENANAmrSXBsh9Um
「那又怎樣!」聽到雪檸的名字,賴冰河似乎更生氣,「我很忙,接下來這禮拜都要……!」438Please respect copyright.PENANAy5L2NXXa3G
438Please respect copyright.PENANA37xE3DELtO
「冰河。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAQD1i6DOrmA
438Please respect copyright.PENANAuVtykXTj1A
賴霜原把手放到弟弟肩上。438Please respect copyright.PENANAdMcLKJPqld
438Please respect copyright.PENANAPbyRG9AM5M
438Please respect copyright.PENANA7YJTXxmZcI
「打排位賽不叫忙。你已經是全服第一了,不差這次的活動獎勵。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAFVZVYCNQMS
438Please respect copyright.PENANAyLOLfb6AHA
438Please respect copyright.PENANAP0IP1LLuia
「……。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAQR5QyWb3JX
438Please respect copyright.PENANAsUSr95U19W
賴冰河沉默,檸檬也沉默。438Please respect copyright.PENANAocylqMPiQQ
438Please respect copyright.PENANAjVF3M9oDNd
她剛剛聽到什麼?438Please respect copyright.PENANA1vOkw8grJM
438Please respect copyright.PENANAC2ktAo2sKl
排位賽?全服第一?438Please respect copyright.PENANAJKSsrCMZun
438Please respect copyright.PENANAUmzl4JOVr1
438Please respect copyright.PENANAwElUvY3Irq
「不要老窩在房間打遊戲,偶爾幫忙家裡的事。」賴霜原用慈祥的聲音再問一遍:「安琪的事可以麻煩你嗎?冰河。」438Please respect copyright.PENANARCrZMQhH8p
438Please respect copyright.PENANACBiYWIWg4h
「……好啦。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAwYBKCuR8in
438Please respect copyright.PENANA9kGCLayPsN
教主就是教主,賴冰河拒絕不了,只是哼了一聲,轉頭問檸檬:「妳叫什麼?」438Please respect copyright.PENANA3G4LaABdMm
438Please respect copyright.PENANAfZ4AbAOVNW
「安琪。」檸檬乖乖回答:「安琪.懷特。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAjTZuAfXmWw
438Please respect copyright.PENANAuruxSEfL80
「跟我來,迷路了我可不管。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAQ0V9yEeqhs
438Please respect copyright.PENANAV0AELXWXtk
說完,賴冰河轉身、走進黑教堂。檸檬拉著行李箱,乖乖跟在這位「小舅舅」後面,開始了她的第一場任務。438Please respect copyright.PENANAfZchkchrmn

438Please respect copyright.PENANALQxxH9Ee6h
438Please respect copyright.PENANADaIImecuEJ
「我的天,這裡也太冷了……!」438Please respect copyright.PENANAJjOjua8Qhd
438Please respect copyright.PENANAz7iw2QWpyz
同一時間,李博洋和李晴煬站在黑教堂的後門。李晴煬冷得打哆嗦,一旁穿著厚外套的李博洋呵呵笑。438Please respect copyright.PENANA2iNz7r3k5m
438Please respect copyright.PENANARRZHc8dNtI
「再不聽哥哥的話呀。」李博洋幸災樂禍,「跟你說要穿保暖一點,冬天的D區可不是開玩笑。」438Please respect copyright.PENANA7dN44SIEKR
438Please respect copyright.PENANAAf2KZ6RKfD
李晴煬對哥哥罵髒話。看弟弟冷成這樣,李博洋非但不幫忙,還故意從口袋拿出暖暖包,「啊,好溫暖喲──」438Please respect copyright.PENANAwWwMsXPGCT
438Please respect copyright.PENANA5wMgjeQ4Os
「去死!」438Please respect copyright.PENANAJnZewJYUV3
438Please respect copyright.PENANAP81HdyeS1k
「啊嗯!」438Please respect copyright.PENANABKCF0yB7KJ
438Please respect copyright.PENANA4vfy1gMwIy
李晴煬的理智當場斷線、一腳踹過去,開始他的每日任務──毆打李博洋。他把哥哥打進一團雪堆中,因為身子動起來,感覺沒那麼冷。438Please respect copyright.PENANAEya5VnCfhd
438Please respect copyright.PENANAinL9bigvhF
「他們到底好了沒?只是交出一個人,怎麼這麼久?」李晴煬抱怨。438Please respect copyright.PENANA9QAbg9foWE
438Please respect copyright.PENANAF6eaHSneBa
「誰知道。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAisQcAvCk0h
438Please respect copyright.PENANAYnLcMPwMEi
李博洋的頭從雪堆裡露出來、戴好眼鏡,學魚一樣揮舞四肢、自己配音「啪噠啪噠」,在雪裡玩得很開心,李晴煬覺得他是白癡。438Please respect copyright.PENANAuSNVtJKrZl
438Please respect copyright.PENANAJ74YigyQyt
「你不冷嗎?」438Please respect copyright.PENANAV7VSrYTJXR
438Please respect copyright.PENANAZAw8MwBQq0
「還好耶。」李博洋扭動,「自從和MIO共生,對冷熱沒什麼感覺,一半的知覺分給MIO了。」438Please respect copyright.PENANA3IKAii0Gho
438Please respect copyright.PENANA5jsRW8O9n4
四年前、從和白絃那場戰鬥甦醒後,李晴煬發現哥哥對自己的態度有了轉變。雖然還是很煩、很噁心、一天到晚黏上來,但比起之前,李博洋似乎沒那麼在乎他──李晴煬無所謂,他們是神與畜,比起兄弟情誼,更重要的是高宇維。438Please respect copyright.PENANA2y62XSPZTc
438Please respect copyright.PENANAnahpapYlkb
「來了。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAGnNdemuYj6
438Please respect copyright.PENANAuF10JPOQt4
順著哥哥的視線,李晴煬看見賴梓柔抱著一個人走出來,手上的人全身裹著布,看不清楚模樣。438Please respect copyright.PENANAMvnq0VZZpW
438Please respect copyright.PENANACEXgrjt1N5
「他在幹嘛?」438Please respect copyright.PENANAuBWQhWjNjW
438Please respect copyright.PENANA9bG4WCJwPM
看到李博洋在雪堆裡啪噠啪噠,賴梓柔露出「這是什麼噁心生物」的表情。李晴煬告訴她:「我哥腦子有問題,別在意。」438Please respect copyright.PENANA9nz0VSmGOy
438Please respect copyright.PENANAeAd5arrat5
賴梓柔也選擇無視。她在鄙視人這方面,和李晴煬意外相似。438Please respect copyright.PENANA7auBIq3Inv
438Please respect copyright.PENANAFDJPzgW3jh
「哪,你們要的人。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAqsdS1oCYiL
438Please respect copyright.PENANAK2FWW21JOu
賴梓柔將人交給李晴煬。憑肩膀的寬度,李晴煬知道這是名女性,但重量不太對,不到四十公斤。438Please respect copyright.PENANAcKiaqSUE8W
438Please respect copyright.PENANAKrDg2nAs01
「怎麼弄這麼久?」李晴煬問賴梓柔。438Please respect copyright.PENANABemPqITinK
438Please respect copyright.PENANAzej5dJcbGl
「她的精神狀態不穩定,一直掙扎、尖叫,以為我要對她做跟那些人一樣的事。」賴梓柔說:「沒辦法,我只能給她打麻醉,明天才會醒來。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAadA4B8TFUG
438Please respect copyright.PENANAh0LANanS0Q
難怪跟屍體一樣沒動靜。李晴煬看著手上的人,心想到底多誇張,有人接近就會尖叫──李晴煬有股不好的預感,之後的日子會很麻煩。438Please respect copyright.PENANAhIgSDA166x
438Please respect copyright.PENANAZrLJ2fl3ON
「怎麼是妳帶她出來呀?」438Please respect copyright.PENANABMiBQuC3i6
438Please respect copyright.PENANAFws03nTPHf
在雪堆裡的李博洋結束啪噠啪噠,突然開口:438Please respect copyright.PENANA7XJ2VshYa9
438Please respect copyright.PENANAuFxvwluik2
438Please respect copyright.PENANANTuX29GwH1
「賴梓柔,教主賴霜原的女兒、十二使徒之一。這種麻煩事,為什麼不交給底下的人處理?」438Please respect copyright.PENANAKvEz4Giog0
438Please respect copyright.PENANAWwuRjAUxya
438Please respect copyright.PENANAbjuUkJ5L75
賴梓柔的眉頭又皺起來了。她從黑教堂出來,卻沒有穿教袍,而是平常的休閒服──她厭惡薩拉凱爾教、厭惡自己的身分。一般的穿著能讓她忘記出生,暫時逃避。438Please respect copyright.PENANAORhGzHm7nO
438Please respect copyright.PENANA9rOQqlsl2J
「原因很荒謬。」賴梓柔閉上眼睛,道出事實:「所有人都嫌她髒,只有我敢碰她。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAazdfUZji4i
438Please respect copyright.PENANAZKKDBi0w7o
「呵。」438Please respect copyright.PENANApQapJeBMDc
438Please respect copyright.PENANAqQjKf3Za5w
李博洋不知道怪笑什麼,拱起身子、用很獵奇的方式從雪堆裡爬出來。賴梓柔和李晴煬,同時露出「把他殺了吧這傢伙太噁心了」的表情。438Please respect copyright.PENANAQyeJ1BeWk9
438Please respect copyright.PENANAxoizdYxWCt
「任務完成,弟弟,我們回家吧。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAt3DP7rPr7H
438Please respect copyright.PENANAhDnyIDBKsO
李博洋拍掉身上的雪,跟賴梓柔說:「謝謝妳,妳的願望我們會幫妳達成,合作愉快。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAX47JjrA7Qd
438Please respect copyright.PENANAbNIm55sk1K
「……。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAvQNB4FsuCC
438Please respect copyright.PENANAkioqGcGak6
賴梓柔沒想到會這麼順利──去了B區、遇到李晴煬,神與畜答應合作,高宇維出面談妥。薩拉凱爾教真會如她所願消失嗎?送一個不到五歲的女孩過來,能促成這種事發生?438Please respect copyright.PENANAnHsDmE1jUL
438Please respect copyright.PENANAFyxltf8TSR
「我先說,我在這個家的地位很尷尬,沒辦法幫助那個女孩,只能少接觸,以免她被懷疑。」賴梓柔表示。438Please respect copyright.PENANAyALjU3yyVZ
438Please respect copyright.PENANAPybEcCOzA3
「妳好像誤會了。」李博洋微微一笑,「那孩子不需要幫助,薩拉凱爾的滅亡勢在必行。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAXq69F7Qafr
438Please respect copyright.PENANAtVh5hd8lKW
「……?」438Please respect copyright.PENANAvXRNw6QUaX
438Please respect copyright.PENANAmHWWyOKSDE
賴梓柔聽不懂李博洋在說什麼,她正想問,李博洋就打斷:「我弟弟穿太少,整個人冷到不行,我們先失陪了。」438Please respect copyright.PENANAIfXhOeR6Uw
438Please respect copyright.PENANAfVqrCMAQca
下一秒,白色空間開啟,兄弟倆直接在賴梓柔面前消失。李博洋的話迴盪在賴梓柔耳邊,她在內心打了寒顫。438Please respect copyright.PENANAoXOBbUpb7V
438Please respect copyright.PENANAYAGtjHIfUU
「勢在必行……什麼意思?」438Please respect copyright.PENANA7Nei2EHkxp
438Please respect copyright.PENANAa3kcHAXaWT
彷彿謝氏的翻版──一部事先寫好的劇本,他們只是按照劇本演出的演員,但這次寫劇本的不是李晴煬,是高宇維。
