大葆士殺人風波持續延燒。豪司視線離開手機，看向走進門口的人。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6Hwexw0Pj

「『揚斯通院長』還是不肯直接跟我面對面詳談？」豪司看著那人在對面坐下：「心胸也太狹隘。」他抱怨。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddI1dBTgJF

「你當初為了『洛蘭平原』淨化戰的經費跟他大吵，讓他在其他外賓和政戰部長面前下不了台。依我看他到入土前都不想見你。」梳著油亮旁分頭，戴著金框眼鏡的中年灰髮男性道。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlj0pTiUE1

「朗少將……不對，現在該稱呼您為朗秘書長了。」豪司坐直身軀， 20 人座的會議室只有他們兩人。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUZL47cNDJ
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHnZlmza0t
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0UwbVGRdQ
「開會已經超過半小時，這樣的出席人數是不是該解讀為『否決』？」豪司悶聲。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQxTkNve8G
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04uNdLHT2p
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzb8nPAAwSJ
「……」朗秘書長不說話。他摘下眼鏡，用手輕抬眼皮。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvJY7BSFxW
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAkn8CtNc2
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmAjHAdJyJ
「他可是大葆士 ‧ 溫頓！人類史上最大陸戰魔方『大無畏』的操控者！」豪司輕敲桌面：「我們不把握這個機會把他要過來，美利安也勢必會搶走他！」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnggCRil9xg
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGKyFh9j9W
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgk0e2mZXP9
「我們情況跟美利安不一樣，他們有 31 座定點蟲洞，超重級侵襲次數也不少。相形之下我們只有 10 座，來犯異獸大多是輕、重級，超重級是五、六年才會碰上一次。」郎秘書長輕捏鼻樑頂端：「 12 級大無畏對我國而言，並非迫切所需的戰力。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwN5Ur54n71
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttC6ZFr4CL
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoMi67vnmE
「五、六年？只要出現超重級，我們勢必會損失不少兵馬和土地！防守線後退的結果您很清楚，需要我再做一份研究報告嗎？」豪司抬眼，朗秘書長看著他。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGjyI58FC5
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RxMwX2foB
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM4jSQiY87

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCadZS4XCN
「我明白您說的。但是您不能否認擁有機擬員，對提升我國國力有極大價值。」豪司皺眉：「而且對收復洛蘭平原有絕對幫助！」
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG9T4OI4g8
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8GblakXdS
「重點是他用魔方殺人了，豪司。」郎秘書長戴上眼鏡：「大葆士現在是燙手山芋。就算有一小群人能看到未來他付出的貢獻，那也不代表所有人都看得到！」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQI41gH20d
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqbubbOJZo
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4S8loxJvT
「所以我們必須告訴他們，讓大家知道大葆士的價值！」豪司靠回椅背：「我一個人辦不到，所以才需要您的幫忙。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp23ULDy7z1
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9X9OAXe52
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0qbfsX1Qz
「幫？我怎麼幫？」朗秘書長露出啼笑皆非的臉：「我現在只是一名收發文件、蓋蓋職名章的新到職辦公人員。根本沒有影響力。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDn1r0Ds5t
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrGN4Vvr6c
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukUiRynOmD
「其他兩名秘書長已經表態不願接收大葆士，院長初步想法跟他們一樣。」朗秘書長將雙肘放到桌上：「就連總統也是。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOufZzzxmg
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsQvDJyhMA
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIzcJz5MJ1
「情況就是這麼嚴峻。」朗秘書長看著豪司蒙上一層灰的臉：「真抱歉，我無能為力。」
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkxvK4xTQD
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzVPOmyUpO
「……就這樣嗎？」豪司瞪著朗秘書長：「 10 座定點蟲洞對我們來說還不夠多嗎？沒想到參與過『比丘蟲洞大戰』的您會說出那種理由。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPX7xcpX5D

「為什麼戰神殿將我們設為第一順位？這不是無償贈與，美利安同樣有競標資格，而且出價肯定會比我們更高。」朗秘書長瞇眼。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jyS9Xmfqh
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvl57l2dnE
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrlCCqyVcv
「你從布列斯托帶回的消息，老實說來源讓我質疑。你說蘭基中將自稱代表戰神殿，只要我們點頭答應這樁交易，就優先把大葆士給我們。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEHC7JQHY3
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpQq8vLGIZ
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUGuq4FAVb
「然而，昨日致電我一位戰神殿高層熟人，他說根本沒這回事。」朗秘書長緩緩靠向椅背：「眾所皆知蘭基中將是溫頓少將的拜把兄弟，他被逼到懸崖上，我們很難預料他會幹出什麼事。」
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMb8Jk0Ks1

「這是國家大事，我不會讓你們因為一頭熱而搞出的私人交易賠上東苑安名號。」朗秘書長喝起罐裝水。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuSTKq7WQe
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoBuh0vGHw
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7B4l1Ldea
「……朗秘書長，就某種程度來說，這的確是私人交易。」豪司凝視臉沉下去的朗秘書長：「只有一小群人知道，只有一小群人懂他對國家的重要性。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL91Cg4lcyq

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlNx1jG7ek

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZwayT0aFT
「豪司啊，你小子人愈大，愈是傻啊。」朗秘書長單手托臉：「雖然世界今非昔比，但舊世的原則我們仍需恪守。『藍光戒嚴』後，限制魔方軍高階將領人數是有原因的，就怕狂人再度出現。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOdxFaiqav

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeKugOxd3J
「很顯然地，大葆士已經踩到底線。倘若我們收留他，那也意味我們在挑戰底線。我絕對不會讓國家陷入風險，即便大葆士和他的大無畏對守護鋼鐵牆有極大幫助。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2dsQJKgpj
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zAjSY2wND
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCWmxlYz8B
「國家名譽和保護鋼鐵牆，在您眼中的重量就是這樣？」豪司注意到朗秘書長露出不耐貌，立時明白後者不願再多談。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMi887fIi4Y
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3YDgKIiDS
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFx0KQkIFLa
「收留大葆士本就有各種考量，這只是其中一種。」朗秘書長輕輕將旋轉椅往後推。如豪司所預料的，準備離開。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5Ab1SktN7
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNlbOVElLA
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNHGyxpRp2
「還是說，」朗秘書長突然停下動作：「你有非得到大葆士不可的理由？」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwPkzSAbBy

「……我的確有理由，朗秘書長。」豪司凝視會議桌面，道。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JpRcvOQWM
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48zmH2RpVe
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevYo9r4tqL
「這動機強烈到我必須得到大葆士，以免他被判死或被美利安買下。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3Am6B4xTa

當豪司結束完魔方防禦技術交流會，抱著一堆資料行經一片樹蔭下時，坐在樹下的少年突然跟他搭話。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInRWB9VRDH
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWmDIOFFJy
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAbUiCPWnJ
豪司側過頭，他對少年有印象。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO93WygoOXg
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tzstwcXha
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iLY0tB9xx
兩小時前發表防護網成果時，這名有著一頭麥芽色短髮的少年就站在角落，面色凝重地聽他演說。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvEi9bwMXF
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevo6qZqbDu
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlg4bNW0oH
雖然他對這名年齡目測約十來歲的少年存在感到突兀，但有可能是學生前來旁聽魔方防護機置。
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFVL95U6OR
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1DB2OvHRf
「先前美利安軍隊用魔方造出的砲彈轟炸過定點蟲洞，但是一點效果都沒有。」豪司搖頭：「所以我想答案是否定的。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2juQEbxSj0
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9jOpCnadc
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQBJYM0BGG
少年露出笑眼，從草地上站起。豪司隱約看到他的頸上繫著鴿狀軍牌。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cawMlYz4m
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJifBIguLpE
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlP3QGWkJK

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMydEsFOLm
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhAcgg5qtM
「定點蟲洞外圍包覆『蟲暈』，其強大張力和無處不在的能量點導致無法對蟲洞主體進行侵入破壞。」少年眨眼：「第 96 期《美布科學期刊》第 102 頁有提到這項發現。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnfVd9yY70
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaqScEuYzQ
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3apb1IeGH8
「沒錯，那是在轟炸後得出的結論。」豪司開始挪動腳步，他預計搭乘一小時後出發的班機回到東苑安。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe69PdMqdgv
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s8danIW7N
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLC7NIBxxf
「我們常將蟲洞、異獸和魔方合為一談，因為三者關係密切。」少年繼續道：「會進行轟炸測試是因為把蟲洞當成異獸，所以用魔方武器產生的降熵評估蟲洞受損程度。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgJqtlV5sL
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkQoQhhn7t
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJLMZSQja4
「你很瞭解這些。」豪司笑看跟著他走的少年：「是魔方軍武迷嗎？」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMG1D6TDcIE
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABT1nAMGGI
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkrRppZ6AL
「 Hehe，算是吧。」少年努力追上豪司腳步：「我剛才聽了你的演說，認為你在防護網上有傑出的表現。」180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEnTXDkUYx

180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1UARLWrSW
「豪司 ‧ 立克夏上校，請你先停下腳步聽我說。」少年跟的滿頭大汗，豪司瞇眼停下。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwsC8lUNdZ
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkPa7VxT53
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEytDGBvHBb
「我不曉得你是來做課堂研究還是單純想聊天。總之我很忙，請你另尋他人採訪。」豪司丟下這句後，頭也不回的繼續前進。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEzlfYV8EJ
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91FzikMUPZ
180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnWgRC5vhn
「我時間也不多，等會就要帶隊到『象牙基地塔』。」少年因為流汗發熱，使他脫下外套，進而露出雙腕上的兩套魔方腕帶。180Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfv8CwKV0n
