2163年10月9日,中午十二點,林葉K區,莫比烏斯學院274Please respect copyright.PENANAClq8H8GjOr
274Please respect copyright.PENANAyf84xcSSN8
274Please respect copyright.PENANABX9sg2CByY
午餐時間,莫比烏斯的學生聚集在食堂,吃著稱不上佳餚、但也算美味的午餐。大家露出放鬆的表情,整個食堂都是同學的笑聲,是莫比烏斯的日常風景。274Please respect copyright.PENANABci5svQ1kh
274Please respect copyright.PENANARiLkzWbHTS
「咦?那是派翠克嗎?」274Please respect copyright.PENANAG3QWopQWQF
274Please respect copyright.PENANAXxzznx0H5U
「他拿掉口罩了!」274Please respect copyright.PENANASZXSqzKcJ4
274Please respect copyright.PENANASOCQPwn8M3
「天啊,他真的是男的?太漂亮吧。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAFgwqXFB9kD
274Please respect copyright.PENANA6KB9lTfj4a
派翠克向來不在食堂用餐,今天的他卻拿掉口罩,露出秀氣的五官,走在食堂桌子與桌子間的走道。他不理會同學的目光,一個人默默地走、默默地走,最後停下腳步,看向食堂的攝影機。274Please respect copyright.PENANAKdeGAmrrNE
274Please respect copyright.PENANAiqHA7BtmAn
274Please respect copyright.PENANAXrBKv3jo4g
「李政煥。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAx0vcrvyt6G
274Please respect copyright.PENANAJEnLa6Ep2f
「我知道你在看。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAeKODVPvviv
274Please respect copyright.PENANA8xhje9OUTO
274Please respect copyright.PENANAglDbV2OdeN
他開口,臉上沒有表情。274Please respect copyright.PENANAIxPSSFMOc3
274Please respect copyright.PENANA2Ifm8lsZoV
「請你體諒,我原本不想這麼做,我討厭波及無辜。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAOPw6fgdnbV
274Please respect copyright.PENANApLZtJ7KuHR
派翠克邊說,右手出現藍色的槍,卻沒有瞄準任何人,而是天花板。274Please respect copyright.PENANAHZsW9yQXzh
274Please respect copyright.PENANA7qFjNNtRnR
274Please respect copyright.PENANAJcQ9pryTyG
「你很重視你的學生,我知道。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAebUOXfymCC
274Please respect copyright.PENANACzg4lUU2Gw
「就像藝術家,愛惜自己的作品。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAyqAW6ZGLmC
274Please respect copyright.PENANAezrUZhlMIb
274Please respect copyright.PENANAqDnSUBAW5r
語畢,派翠克開槍,五發子彈全部命中,打破天花板的灑水系統。紫色的毒水狂灑而出,濺到在場同學的臉、四肢、身體。他們尖叫,皮膚被毒腐蝕,露出底下灰黑色的金屬,血管與電線交錯,混雜器官與零件。274Please respect copyright.PENANAKq6vqz1oEo
274Please respect copyright.PENANA559nsgg65e
「加水稀釋過,毒性沒那麼強,但很痛。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAdAqexjIEuE
274Please respect copyright.PENANAMwK5T9LYgP
淋到紫色的水──自己的血,派翠克當然沒反應。他邁開步伐,一個人慢慢走,不理會周遭,彷彿開啟靜音模式,也開了0.5倍慢速。274Please respect copyright.PENANAnIP5mqmOLF
274Please respect copyright.PENANAJe0HDdEZEn
「你為他們保留痛覺。會喊痛的小孩,才會依賴大人。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAtNz3qqGEa8
274Please respect copyright.PENANAPcC2rMBcqJ
走出食堂,派翠克的頭髮、臉、制服,都沾染紫色。他停下腳步,看著走廊另一端、氣喘吁吁跑來的人,冰冷的聲音問:274Please respect copyright.PENANAa9Jzaw610Q
274Please respect copyright.PENANAVOrVNW5fM5
274Please respect copyright.PENANAXAH9foOCHz
「我沒說錯吧?」274Please respect copyright.PENANA1who6CHNew
274Please respect copyright.PENANAQay9C2Kws1
「──朴老師。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAdgGsv0TGIa
274Please respect copyright.PENANAWybaatKGFb
274Please respect copyright.PENANAtfehhmKj8y
「……!」274Please respect copyright.PENANAG1bcmOf02X
274Please respect copyright.PENANAF80G2JfAcY
朴賢旭──李政煥趕到現場,聽到自己的寶貝學生在食堂尖叫,正想前去救援,派翠克卻站在食堂門口,槍口對著他。274Please respect copyright.PENANAY2xxKbfLQi
274Please respect copyright.PENANAt9E2kwZCQF
「我出發前,赫密士說K區常駐一位Knight,可以協助我。」派翠克說:「不過,K區的網絡被利維坦入侵,這裡就像一座孤島,神與畜不知道那位Knight已經死了。以演技來說,你的表現很不錯。」274Please respect copyright.PENANA89gFQPOtlw
274Please respect copyright.PENANANrGOKaHrYm
「……。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAqByoVEcVrM
274Please respect copyright.PENANAtlyv2buhJC
身分被揭穿,李政煥深吸一口氣,似乎在做心理準備,也下定決心。274Please respect copyright.PENANAtwHWgG3BWK
274Please respect copyright.PENANAKbYhvwALTc
「晶片是我左腳的膝蓋骨,對嗎?」274Please respect copyright.PENANART5rZUrSbn
274Please respect copyright.PENANAnI05wfv7h6
派翠克點頭。274Please respect copyright.PENANAaGR1aPSU1M
274Please respect copyright.PENANAgSVOdXYRC0
「就給你吧。」李政煥眼神堅定,「我願意配合,只要你不傷害學生。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAhS1lVSG40r
274Please respect copyright.PENANAzSxCDFdbXe
「哦?因為是偉大的作品?」派翠克歪頭,「全校都被改成半機器人,確實是樁豐功偉業。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAKU2TQPzgtR
274Please respect copyright.PENANAR3MKLxfWP7
「不,他們不是作品!我……」274Please respect copyright.PENANATozSppgqyU
274Please respect copyright.PENANAVLtUZpRrxq
李政煥的口氣很激動,好像在發表一場演說。274Please respect copyright.PENANAu6wBmRpG4G
274Please respect copyright.PENANAc9q46E6w8u
「我想留住他們美好的青春──只是這樣而已!」李政煥表示:「我離開Platinum,是這些孩子接納了我!你不明白他們在學校有多快樂,也不知道面對未來,這些孩子是多麼迷惘、恐懼!」274Please respect copyright.PENANAbYxEFiGhsV
274Please respect copyright.PENANA4FuJF1LvZj
派翠克沒有回話。274Please respect copyright.PENANAwQ8hx7nHvv
274Please respect copyright.PENANALVgAqvEvbB
「有我的技術,他們就不會長大,可以永遠當學生,和喜歡的朋友在一起!」他反問派翠克:「外面的世界是什麼樣,你比我更清楚!資本主義、十大家族、艾莉絲體系、利維坦……你忍心看他們被世界殘害嗎?我在保護他們!」274Please respect copyright.PENANAf2waFsRbrA
274Please respect copyright.PENANABuXI8y3aPH
「……。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAtgy4oUNxx1
274Please respect copyright.PENANAvweXnVUDgD
派翠克沉默。李政煥知道,自己的理念在旁人耳裡,簡直喪心病狂,也是他被逐出Platinum的原因。本以為自己死期將至,對面的派翠克卻把槍放下,跟他說:274Please respect copyright.PENANAtQg04a5xeH
274Please respect copyright.PENANA32bBbTs1Wy
274Please respect copyright.PENANAo4vCny5FmF
「我沒有不認同。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAjLHp8WHkbX
274Please respect copyright.PENANAgSAO7XOdfS
「雖然很瘋狂,但『想留住美好的時光』,我可以理解。」274Please respect copyright.PENANA5vPEGerPxc
274Please respect copyright.PENANACRESsIGwoq
274Please respect copyright.PENANAgB05xUdQoD
派翠克嘆氣,想起自己的臉,想起給他新容貌的白絃。274Please respect copyright.PENANAQnM1pr5SLY
274Please respect copyright.PENANAvk6QAbHxLH
「羅琳娜的仙境,就是因為這種想法而誕生,我不覺得你有錯……應該說,身為水果塔繼承人,我沒有資格說你錯。」274Please respect copyright.PENANACfxveFWrNJ
274Please respect copyright.PENANAJaR1UakqWG
派翠克看著李政煥的臉,換問:「既然知道我是誰,擔心我傷害你的學生,為什麼不早點交出晶片?」274Please respect copyright.PENANAYiN6ny7zXI
274Please respect copyright.PENANAJ2ar7efPFm
李政煥低頭,看著自己的左腳。274Please respect copyright.PENANAkWUWCRPFH2
274Please respect copyright.PENANAiJkr7s4ltc
「要是少一隻腳,就不能和他們打球了。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAV0nkHTq8wM
274Please respect copyright.PENANAO04F9uj0iU
李政煥苦笑,也覺得這理由很傻。274Please respect copyright.PENANA04tBgiQwAb
274Please respect copyright.PENANAAdD5MZScH6
「運動方面,一個普通人類怎麼贏得了機器?他們笑我球技爛,但孩子們還是會來辦公室,問我要不要一起……」274Please respect copyright.PENANAcNycfri4RR
274Please respect copyright.PENANA0ql4dvIy8q
想起他的學生,大家在教室、體育館、宿舍……那些歡笑的臉龐,李政煥會心一笑。他們早就不是作品,是超越家人的存在。274Please respect copyright.PENANAY9A8DDnQVk
274Please respect copyright.PENANAAA2igdvs4F
「我可以做義肢,但從Platinum偷運的設備材料,都用在孩子上了。」李政煥感慨,「可惜羅俊死了。要是那孩子,就算不在Platinum,他也一定能做出來。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAzsYKskFFY7
274Please respect copyright.PENANABK1s1AZLTb
「……。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAKU6pOs3YmK
274Please respect copyright.PENANA9634PIBsC5
聽到羅俊的名字,派翠克露出不一樣的表情;而李政煥,他似乎讀懂那個表情,驚訝地張大雙眼。274Please respect copyright.PENANAIBM66aPFoW
274Please respect copyright.PENANAcZmx40JZg5
「羅俊……還活著嗎?」274Please respect copyright.PENANAttmQgtweUD
274Please respect copyright.PENANAgSYmUJqmRY
李政煥不可置信問。派翠克沒有明說,只是告訴他:「我不喜歡殺人。只要你願意配合,給你一隻新的腳,宇維少爺不會說什麼。」274Please respect copyright.PENANANrh1ruXk5A
274Please respect copyright.PENANACiCioZQuHd
與世隔絕的學校,裡面的學生是不是人類,派翠克覺得無關緊要,畢竟高宇維的命令是取回晶片,不是趕盡殺絕。274Please respect copyright.PENANArnVUnA2dmS
274Please respect copyright.PENANAIu5Dy7LMhP
「太好了……」274Please respect copyright.PENANAdb5hwU9Ufo
274Please respect copyright.PENANA9rBxc7nU9a
還能和心愛的學生打球,李政煥喜出望外。他向派翠克提議:274Please respect copyright.PENANAcNmZp0xv7w
274Please respect copyright.PENANAHeb67l0aCl
「我們先離開K區。這段時間,我會讓孩子們休眠,等我回來──」274Please respect copyright.PENANAGY6kH2u2dJ
274Please respect copyright.PENANAEmmnu0mhqg
話沒說完,一隻手從李政煥的後背,毫不猶豫,就這麼貫穿他的身體。李政煥瞪大眼睛,派翠克也愣在原地。手的主人站在李政煥背後,派翠克看見對方的臉,開口:274Please respect copyright.PENANAeHCLyjQnSx
274Please respect copyright.PENANAZZicEkiBQS
「班長……?」274Please respect copyright.PENANAhYRS00LAhR
274Please respect copyright.PENANAh0ZBi7yUxF
派翠克的室友、同學、品學兼優的模範生──馬爾科,冰冷的眼神看著他們,拔出他血淋淋的手。李政煥錯愕、震驚、困惑……帶著複雜的情緒,他雙膝跪下、摔倒在地。上一秒還在說話,下一秒便沒了呼吸,當場死去。274Please respect copyright.PENANAIhV6hkw1xE
274Please respect copyright.PENANAPjVBcWatuX
274Please respect copyright.PENANA4hrbyU8auY
「『羅俊還活著』。」274Please respect copyright.PENANATqK995L5jg
274Please respect copyright.PENANAEwWx3bbMC7
「──我聽到了。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAbFtKkBMyxR
274Please respect copyright.PENANApchEcJfl91
274Please respect copyright.PENANASc34CXpCFQ
語畢,馬爾科的臉、身體、衣服,全部變了樣。原先和派翠克差不多高的人,此刻竟變成金髮的高大壯漢。他披著一件黑色外套,伸手將垂在眼前的瀏海撥上去,露出螢光般的紅色眼睛,左眼下寫著一行紅字:「6.Chris」。274Please respect copyright.PENANAWoCGYZPJgs
274Please respect copyright.PENANAy6VRcCySWA
「你是……!」274Please respect copyright.PENANAYxV11Ol4cS
274Please respect copyright.PENANAoKva17igTz
出乎預料的突發狀況。雖是第一次見面,但紅字暴露對方的身分。派翠克不負籤王之名,不只證人難找、無法和外界聯繫,還遇到羅俊的機器人──「六號.紅王克里斯」。274Please respect copyright.PENANATPr0nHZSrr
274Please respect copyright.PENANAgu5wxIr1WF
「那小鬼在哪?」274Please respect copyright.PENANAlvazUDQcZS
274Please respect copyright.PENANAHsHG7llQ9o
將李政煥的屍體踢到牆邊,克里斯威脅派翠克:「人類,說出他的位置,別怪我砍了你。」274Please respect copyright.PENANA8oI975Hn3U
274Please respect copyright.PENANA44KfBR6y4I
「無可奉告。」274Please respect copyright.PENANApzunFxijrQ
274Please respect copyright.PENANASQ1U4jAvYY
派翠克依舊冷靜。他脫下制服外套、扔到地上,雙手各拿一把藍色的重型機關槍,瞄準克里斯。274Please respect copyright.PENANARGR2eT9Br9
274Please respect copyright.PENANAVTdMle4Seo
「他是我的病患,也是夥伴。」派翠克警告:「你不准帶他走,宇維少爺可不允許。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAHgGDnJACP7
274Please respect copyright.PENANATJ1OimZT6h
「帶他走?哈!」274Please respect copyright.PENANA22o4OoBhmn
274Please respect copyright.PENANAuTiWAExmub
克里斯忍不住笑了,笑聲充滿不屑。274Please respect copyright.PENANALeBQdocY2Y
274Please respect copyright.PENANAeAUzOpN0n5
「人類,你給我聽好了。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAIMdbOQLYi5
274Please respect copyright.PENANA5GUc4CU0Lo
克里斯往前一步,右手的外套袖子,竟變成一把黑色的雙頭刃,一邊是彎鉤,一邊是尖銳的刺。李政煥的血沿著手臂,流到他的武器上。274Please respect copyright.PENANADFG5Xan5z4
274Please respect copyright.PENANA2fzIa9npjG
274Please respect copyright.PENANABtzNuj7e1W
「我是紅王。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAkX6KfzZVC5
274Please respect copyright.PENANAVXYrAuxpQz
「程式設定,在我這裡都是屁,我從不照設定行事。」274Please respect copyright.PENANAFieBJ4f8yd
274Please respect copyright.PENANA5hqOY2XhNT
274Please respect copyright.PENANAYMHJQxeXdH
語畢,克里斯的身影消失。派翠克回神,發現對方已經在上方。克里斯手持武器,彎鉤的那端向下劈砍,目標是派翠克的臉。274Please respect copyright.PENANAX1nDTDCleI
274Please respect copyright.PENANAKP0502MlWM
274Please respect copyright.PENANAj2jQHnz2Yd
「我要殺了他。」274Please respect copyright.PENANASzhQ9QUcFQ
274Please respect copyright.PENANA9MvnLEZSMN
「殺死羅俊──是我的個人意志!」274Please respect copyright.PENANAd1LIXRfx14
