我們兩個的計畫是後天晚上十點,也就是大人們入睡後這時段逃離村子。263Please respect copyright.PENANAjrWEvZmWQ7
263Please respect copyright.PENANATLgQnI4hW9
由於事關重大,為了完全確保不能出任何差錯,耕一說會在私底下和穗香解釋清楚,要我多擔心自己的狀況要緊。263Please respect copyright.PENANARidLuXJqMk
我從晚飯過後就著手準備行李,要準備的東西蠻多的,光是衣服之類的必需品就已經一大堆,再加上耕一剛剛開給我的清單,似乎還要有露宿野外的最糟打算。所以我只好捨棄自己的包包,將父親過去經常背著出門,容量高達八十五公升登山背包來使用。263Please respect copyright.PENANAxpoZBasA2a
263Please respect copyright.PENANABhr31dWyMr
中途意外地在隱藏口袋裡發現了父親過去在大學任教的教師證,在這之前我從未聽說過他有大學教授的資格,看樣子大人們確實隱藏了不少真相,但真的有必要為了這村子做到這種程度嗎?我一面在心裡反覆咀嚼著,一面照著清單收拾房間裡的東西。263Please respect copyright.PENANAbR30fFq5ar
263Please respect copyright.PENANAGskSihZSkx
263Please respect copyright.PENANAvIw6qEDLsS
「……奇怪?外面是發生了什麼事情嗎?」263Please respect copyright.PENANA2NdXUwoXnx
263Please respect copyright.PENANAparbTr3JLm
從不久前開始,透過玻璃窗隱約聽到外面傳來快速走過的大人們交談的聲音。263Please respect copyright.PENANAHlRZGpsy60
263Please respect copyright.PENANAUJI0kJgrH1
由於我房間位於二樓,又是在最裡面的角落,根本沒辦法確認門前的狀況,但聽起來人數似乎不少的樣子。263Please respect copyright.PENANA6txrc3Egy9
263Please respect copyright.PENANAk0LA0dX5Qr
我抬頭看了一下時間是九點四十分,理論上應該是他們就寢的時間,因此顯得格外讓人在意。過了幾分鐘後我決定打開窗戶,探出半截身子觀察外面的情況。263Please respect copyright.PENANAnsDbjmOElk
263Please respect copyright.PENANAREtFZEMKO4
然而似乎為時已晚,家門口前似乎沒有人經過了,只見到遠方的廣場那邊燈火通明的景象。263Please respect copyright.PENANAThcxggUfPB
263Please respect copyright.PENANACqizHCFfzw
……該不會是我和耕一的事情被發現了吧?263Please respect copyright.PENANAq5zf79YE8b
263Please respect copyright.PENANAYlvMknV6zz
正當我不禁為此而提心吊膽的時候──263Please respect copyright.PENANAATg5Idhgmg
263Please respect copyright.PENANAy2yvh1MVrp
263Please respect copyright.PENANAonkncIdTuc
磅磅磅磅磅。263Please respect copyright.PENANAK6weEoqzVX
263Please respect copyright.PENANAcEP1s8mwq2
樓下傳來了像這樣急促的敲門聲。263Please respect copyright.PENANACpOnuE6YrC
263Please respect copyright.PENANAlcU0jZTbT9
隨後傳來了呼喊著我名字的聲音……是耕一沒錯,確認以後我趕緊衝下樓去應門。263Please respect copyright.PENANAwtmlxFJGcF
263Please respect copyright.PENANA6VxcRdiOWd
263Please respect copyright.PENANAeZH5Hht0yd
「來夏!他們抓到那個怪物了!」263Please respect copyright.PENANAZ92Xyq7e1m
263Please respect copyright.PENANAOxcyz0oRG2
「咦?」263Please respect copyright.PENANAqeKpDQWzZH
263Please respect copyright.PENANAErB5dSMNvq
才一打開門,穿著厚重外套的耕一就急切地告知我這個令人震驚的消息。263Please respect copyright.PENANAB2iNI0v5iu
263Please respect copyright.PENANA8OaWtwhmfb
……已經抓到了嗎。263Please respect copyright.PENANAgdqVDjUzFq
263Please respect copyright.PENANAGNbzh2ZcyP
老實說,憑著那晚恐怖至極的印象,我完全沒有料想到那個會有被捕獲的可能性。263Please respect copyright.PENANAl5rI1laR6j
263Please respect copyright.PENANAeGX9oclvpf
263Please respect copyright.PENANAVxRDsW0xIm
「那個──已經確定是冬笑了嗎?」263Please respect copyright.PENANATeCKgxXYeN
263Please respect copyright.PENANAZNhMmqmwd8
我戰戰兢兢地向耕一確認著。263Please respect copyright.PENANAsaakjvQTzZ
263Please respect copyright.PENANA33AmBI5oAW
263Please respect copyright.PENANAUF2Nwhqqlk
「還不知道,所以我才要帶妳過去,不好好做最後確認的話,妳也沒辦法說走就走吧。」263Please respect copyright.PENANA4XhcQhG6Fq
263Please respect copyright.PENANAQvZBPaH3wG
「……嗯。」263Please respect copyright.PENANA4e0pbFM9CK
263Please respect copyright.PENANAjcUeFkheVG
我雖然對於親眼確認一事有些猶豫,但還是點了點頭。263Please respect copyright.PENANAapcbbLtlqs
263Please respect copyright.PENANAyI5DLAcEC7
在獲得了我的同意後,耕一隨即就直接拉起我的手跑了起來。263Please respect copyright.PENANAgBunvo5YNY
263Please respect copyright.PENANACfQh6OK6Qt
263Please respect copyright.PENANAdqSHcEiXWx
「等……!門還沒有──」263Please respect copyright.PENANAiEm147L3J1
263Please respect copyright.PENANA5YfPU0hGMz
「沒時間管那個了!我們去看一眼之後就回來,不知道為什麼總有不太好的預感。」263Please respect copyright.PENANAWoUYzKqf4V
263Please respect copyright.PENANAQLcBPDc33x
「……不好的預感?」263Please respect copyright.PENANAuHPTptTWUA
263Please respect copyright.PENANA3aE0jnltjP
「我也說不上來,只是我這幾天一直在想,冬笑真的是為了復仇而回來的嗎?」263Please respect copyright.PENANAl8Udku8GBx
263Please respect copyright.PENANA7k9BStv32P
「復仇什麼的那不是你說的嗎!?」263Please respect copyright.PENANABMYpJkvnBS
263Please respect copyright.PENANAJDvjuGqQHx
夜裡的風很大,將我的側髮吹得亂七八糟的。263Please respect copyright.PENANAstwjpMNG8i
263Please respect copyright.PENANAAsuqGznJ0k
263Please respect copyright.PENANAk948tVxIpS
「對,可是復仇這個舉動在殺死葛城後便達成目的了吧,沒有道理連殘肢都一起帶走吧?」263Please respect copyright.PENANALyIUwGafPw
263Please respect copyright.PENANAYTGPT7ots5
「───」263Please respect copyright.PENANAY9w1Imv6i3
263Please respect copyright.PENANA9Rug5qlgZ9
對啊,這到底是為什麼?263Please respect copyright.PENANANIzXDu62dU
263Please respect copyright.PENANAhmUXyfEfak
說起來,冬笑沒有攻擊我的原因,真的是因為一點都不恨我嗎?263Please respect copyright.PENANAVtVTFHXgl4
263Please respect copyright.PENANAycNNivVOM0
從來沒有試著了解她真正想法,又和殺死她的兇手有著親密的互動,對於這樣失職的姊姊,冬笑真的一點恨都沒有嗎?263Please respect copyright.PENANA0r0jDB1ER4
263Please respect copyright.PENANAvJACfSzi0I
263Please respect copyright.PENANAUhY6j97Ala
「來夏,別自顧自地在那邊胡思亂想。」263Please respect copyright.PENANAVVEjnA58j4
263Please respect copyright.PENANAxMrlkJn7J7
「可是冬笑她──」263Please respect copyright.PENANAJYMZrchGCi
263Please respect copyright.PENANACd8nN0XWx1
「我說這些並不是為了讓妳自我否定,只是我也想弄清楚做個了斷而已。」263Please respect copyright.PENANAmtxXvnebPp
263Please respect copyright.PENANAXvDH8VBIdb
「我──」263Please respect copyright.PENANA9vBuDcI2Yk
263Please respect copyright.PENANATRKin4MW8b
「別去想了,不管妳要的是什麼樣的答案,到那裡全都會知道的。」263Please respect copyright.PENANAxhEINVW8n8
263Please respect copyright.PENANAGGTpX9Qv4U
耕一阻止了我繼續說下去,拉著我朝那位於前方半山腰位置的廣場跑去。263Please respect copyright.PENANAaUwpojXJ2l
263Please respect copyright.PENANA9lwN7X3CGI
這時候我第一次察覺到,耕一的手掌不知道從什麼時候開始,已經變得比我還大上許多。263Please respect copyright.PENANA8jLRHNSYfr
263Please respect copyright.PENANARYnqeqvvpM
263Please respect copyright.PENANASnCHTHwF6a
263Please respect copyright.PENANAS5zEZrgtJH
等到我們氣喘呼呼地趕到時,環繞廣場四周的傳統祭典火把正熊熊燃燒著,形成整片的橘紅色光景。263Please respect copyright.PENANAOjLdnXMcg4
263Please respect copyright.PENANAMXV6CuUhFN
燃燒煤油所產生的煙味讓我覺得有點不舒服,但還是跟著耕一身後走進人群裡面。263Please respect copyright.PENANAbOVMQKBqyI
263Please respect copyright.PENANAA6GV5UATIk
由於交頭接耳的大人們就像是看著表演似地圍繞一圈,再加上並沒有意料中來得擠,所以我們勉強佔到了看得見整座廣場的位置。263Please respect copyright.PENANA92GfIBoBz8
263Please respect copyright.PENANABR3PYAeyDw
263Please respect copyright.PENANAsOJeVH5AxU
「喀喀喀嘰──嘰嘰嘰嘰!」263Please respect copyright.PENANA6AwCbpejtR
263Please respect copyright.PENANA4GRvsPIp6M
位於中央的是拼命想要掙脫繩索的怪物。263Please respect copyright.PENANAKWx6kdtFTg
263Please respect copyright.PENANAS3pbd0tVhi
如今被牢牢綑緊的麻繩所束縛,彎著腰的模樣雖然比我印象中的模樣縮小整整一圈,但基本上沒有多大的出入。263Please respect copyright.PENANAGxqYXx0RKq
263Please respect copyright.PENANAFrN6ZEyZLa
我拼命地觀察怪物身上的每一處細節,過長且乾癟的四肢,流出綠膿的凹陷眼窩,甚至是那像是樹根盤踞而成的臉部輪廓都仔細評斷了一遍。263Please respect copyright.PENANAs3zWWzgCA5
263Please respect copyright.PENANAWlV32up66b
然而,這個外觀上找不到任何相似之處的怪物,為什麼我會在那晚把她誤認成冬笑呢。263Please respect copyright.PENANAerQCcQvz6b
263Please respect copyright.PENANA428zjR6dTn
263Please respect copyright.PENANAc9ApTYFO31
「怎麼樣,來夏,妳還認為這怪物是冬笑嗎?」263Please respect copyright.PENANAxiCT9i5Ibf
263Please respect copyright.PENANAfrO95bg8nU
「我……不知道。」263Please respect copyright.PENANA1vpDWULctr
263Please respect copyright.PENANADjTP9qktVZ
儘管如此,我還是沒有否定當時的想法。263Please respect copyright.PENANAXBeqObXU1l
263Please respect copyright.PENANAUtn6gTzwPz
263Please respect copyright.PENANAVpKqGeOzvG
「還不確定是嗎,但我還是相信妳最初的判斷,妳的直覺一項都很準。話說回來,實際看到這怪物果然還是很驚人。」263Please respect copyright.PENANAGXg785svH0
263Please respect copyright.PENANATejuHdtT0e
「嗯。但有個地方好像跟我印象中的不太一樣。」263Please respect copyright.PENANAkKb7M7t0ED
263Please respect copyright.PENANAllMWuBH27d
因為有點擔憂,我正想向耕一提到那怪物如同懷孕般隆起的腹部時,怪物後方的表演臺上出現了村長的身影,而森叔就站在臺階附近。263Please respect copyright.PENANAxydSqrszgn
263Please respect copyright.PENANA19WEilS1Li
原本吵雜的討論聲在村長上臺後瞬間就變得鴉雀無聲,所有人就如同往常般對村長充滿著敬畏,沒有人敢開口再多嘴半句話。263Please respect copyright.PENANAa0Y1SwBgTl
263Please respect copyright.PENANAzv135Vwjbq
263Please respect copyright.PENANAYIKryNtNzJ
「吾等畢生的夙願,終將在今天向前邁進至雄偉的領域!」263Please respect copyright.PENANACDYaFMHGsp
263Please respect copyright.PENANAwK8CtHyft9
村長沒有用上任何擴音的裝置,然而與他那駝背的身形不符,充滿能量的嗓音卻足以震撼全場。263Please respect copyright.PENANAnQmc0HCwAZ
263Please respect copyright.PENANAovHGec6xN3
但是……夙願?邁進?領域?村長所說的那些我一個字都聽不懂,只是為什麼聽起來村長他們像是早就知道這怪物存在了一樣?263Please respect copyright.PENANABFtHAc0WLQ
263Please respect copyright.PENANA8q7LpyRGfC
263Please respect copyright.PENANAkvcYqRhktv
「果然啊……怪物是被他們創造出來的。」263Please respect copyright.PENANASz9fP8U8uj
263Please respect copyright.PENANAVMs8W1Aiy5
耕一在旁邊小聲的自言自語徹底點醒了我。263Please respect copyright.PENANAIdiyAMqINX
263Please respect copyright.PENANAoFjYLauAmD
我轉頭看向四周的大人們,每個人的表情都像是浸淫在喜悅中,聚精會神地聽著村長的演說。……背後染上了一股惡寒。263Please respect copyright.PENANAckrxCk8JHw
263Please respect copyright.PENANAbeWeNqAzFz
身處在懷抱希望的人群裡,我突然對此感到懼怕不已,那是與怪物帶來的絕望感截然不同,滿溢出來的愛慕及崇拜簡直到令人作嘔的程度。263Please respect copyright.PENANA0j1gIIwpM9
263Please respect copyright.PENANAEtKxpIX3pQ
263Please respect copyright.PENANAtqmc1tcC00
「來夏,還走得動嗎?」263Please respect copyright.PENANAWPa45kXm8f
263Please respect copyright.PENANAqnzfWpBWxo
幾分鐘過後。263Please respect copyright.PENANApuxMVx16nF
263Please respect copyright.PENANAQVQldmvIpi
大概是注意到了我的臉色不好,耕一在演講還沒結束前,就抓著我的手肘準備離開。263Please respect copyright.PENANAaGktpDWvPE
263Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6Zn37y70I
263Please respect copyright.PENANAU6VQXhcOHP
「請寬恕吾等的褻瀆,這一切都是為了更加知曉您的存在!」263Please respect copyright.PENANAa1C8xNHabi
263Please respect copyright.PENANAfIm4XDs9GD
幾乎在同一時刻,結束演說的村長對著怪物高舉起了雙手,用嘶啞的聲音高喊著。263Please respect copyright.PENANAPDp30vXmIu
263Please respect copyright.PENANAepvbM9NVF8
隨後,包含穗香的父親在內的五名男人走到廣場中央──263Please respect copyright.PENANA1iXuB40Jd7
263Please respect copyright.PENANAzsgAcSmFWJ
263Please respect copyright.PENANAO6g9SCsIzk
「嘰嘰嘰嘰嘰嘰嘰嘰!!!」263Please respect copyright.PENANAdORUSKW1Fx
263Please respect copyright.PENANAOJQZaiYkjr
怪物第一次發出了悲鳴。263Please respect copyright.PENANAt1paZNYUJt
263Please respect copyright.PENANAXbQLabHBoL
在我還沒反應過來之前,他們裡面其中一名手持柴刀的男人,毫不猶豫地朝怪物的腹部一刀劃開。263Please respect copyright.PENANAqZY0KuEaZb
263Please respect copyright.PENANA9dgUhehLzA
263Please respect copyright.PENANAp2n2OhVhtg
「嗚!?」263Please respect copyright.PENANAbJfcNwmTNz
263Please respect copyright.PENANAJkf1Ao8ndz
突如其來的殘忍景象,讓我不由得用雙手摀住嘴巴才避免自己尖叫出聲。263Please respect copyright.PENANAOjs4GxFR2W
263Please respect copyright.PENANAUOKFiYIhgi
263Please respect copyright.PENANAukQM6a2xhX
「……太亂來了吧。」263Please respect copyright.PENANAvKgbiA8QwL
263Please respect copyright.PENANA0bZ2Pb6EJd
同樣目睹這個景象的耕一小聲地咒罵起來。263Please respect copyright.PENANAI1ISF36OZi
263Please respect copyright.PENANApZGfEvRanv
然而,在那之後的太過衝擊般的畫面,讓我們兩個都暫時忘卻了離開的念頭。263Please respect copyright.PENANALrUXS61WX4
263Please respect copyright.PENANAP7ldOIzTIO
263Please respect copyright.PENANAcvmylJ6roa
「喂!裡面的這是和史啊!快來幫忙,他還有呼吸!」263Please respect copyright.PENANAP21Tmc8qlB
263Please respect copyright.PENANAinSVJhtIwT
從敞開的腹部裡面滑了出來,像是胎兒一樣捲曲的裸體男人,毫無疑問的就是失蹤多日的葛城老師。263Please respect copyright.PENANAimEgjRTuju
263Please respect copyright.PENANAmfsqDdoOPL
但這怎麼可能。263Please respect copyright.PENANA1eMs14JSvh
263Please respect copyright.PENANAnMyMXOj2mz
在那天我明明就已經看見葛城老師被斬斷手腳,為什麼現在又──263Please respect copyright.PENANA3mzh3CNJlP
263Please respect copyright.PENANAvQ3aAmU6RC
263Please respect copyright.PENANAMj14y2Iyc1
「怎麼回事!?頭顱好像被黏在一起了啊!」263Please respect copyright.PENANAAKdAWiuwvD
263Please respect copyright.PENANAGKHqPOFwxI
「斬斷上面那邊試看看吧!」263Please respect copyright.PENANAAKA3Z5GPW7
263Please respect copyright.PENANAIDByloOQV3
前面的大人們似乎七嘴八舌地討論著很恐怖的事情。263Please respect copyright.PENANAIvt4xUKWK7
263Please respect copyright.PENANAC9nsH4QLwS
不過到一半突然就停住了,因為大家明顯都察覺到,在我們被葛城老師給吸引注意力的同時,那個怪物一直習慣性的抽搐動作不知道什麼時候停了下來。263Please respect copyright.PENANAJOtQuop1KJ
263Please respect copyright.PENANAFEXib2GWIJ
263Please respect copyright.PENANAtEssSkPKR4
「──嘰?」263Please respect copyright.PENANA7bxH08rFM5
263Please respect copyright.PENANAO1sFsxsG3v
像是注意到什麼似地,幾絲稀疏的頭髮垂著。263Please respect copyright.PENANAMKkaHtu2xc
263Please respect copyright.PENANAPjDU1PaUrZ
張著嘴的怪物動也不動,只是歪著頭看向我們這邊的人群,然後彎起嘴角,試圖用喉嚨微微發出如同吹奏有破損直笛般的音色。263Please respect copyright.PENANALDj0wN2nCj
263Please respect copyright.PENANALAhzTLPSSV
263Please respect copyright.PENANAGvaC7O7Gtb
「……姊、姊?」263Please respect copyright.PENANAPFmotUgeP0
263Please respect copyright.PENANApJtb0iInpz
那瞬間我幾乎忘了怎麼呼吸。263Please respect copyright.PENANACwYYCbbMKd
263Please respect copyright.PENANAyBZVlsdNrL
胸口好緊,感受到無數往我身上投射過來的眼神。263Please respect copyright.PENANA1XuMD9gIvd
263Please respect copyright.PENANACLDmKBCpUo
後退了一大步,果然沒錯,絕對是冬笑沒錯!眼前那東西絕對是冬笑沒錯!!263Please respect copyright.PENANAwo7NmWa5k2
263Please respect copyright.PENANAS6JrfXLqAk
263Please respect copyright.PENANAkQi8MtEQD0
「嘎啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊!!!」263Please respect copyright.PENANAqWFPftOQuy
263Please respect copyright.PENANAsKFDN2lA8w
尖銳到像是用鑿子用瘋狂刮著黑膠唱片的高亢聲調。263Please respect copyright.PENANAkdWO0FhI2t
263Please respect copyright.PENANAE4L7Wrvvr7
怪物像是壞掉的節拍器般興奮地上下甩著頸部,那很明顯就是針對我才做的舉動。263Please respect copyright.PENANA355U54JgcA
