第一次見識到完整的水果塔，尼可拉斯驚訝得忘記掙扎，此刻的派翠克就像披著孔雀披風的王子，受彩繪玻璃上的薇奧拉庇護與加持。他扯掉黑色口罩，用一模一樣的臉面對紅鶴，藍色的頭髮與眼睛不遜於粉紅色。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FuSjGD9pF
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uXIFbHdGw
「……哼。」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuH53RnkgI
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq4laneQne
另一邊的紅鶴沒有廢話，拔了刀，修長的身影單腳一蹬、直朝派翠克衝來。他對派翠克的敵意似乎不只因為「蜘蛛」，還夾雜了個人恩怨，看來自己的外表被人仿冒，紅鶴的心裡很不是滋味。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTL9dm1aFr
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJT919RlYms
面對紅鶴的刀，派翠克不慌不忙、張開手，身後的彩繪玻璃與他的動作同步──女人敞開擁抱，一把藍色的狙擊槍出現在派翠克手中。他抬手，用槍身將紅鶴的刀擋下來，清脆一響──933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBjDxo61yO
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9sXN3pWAG
「鐺！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALJtalwEak
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3aTf6dYDV
刀砍在槍上，兩張一模一樣的臉靠得非常近。突然，十幾把白色狙擊槍憑空出現，如孔雀開屏般綻放在派翠克身後。紅鶴瞪大眼睛，所有飄浮在空中的槍枝竟一致瞄準自己，自動扣下扳機──933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eQHud4ZWF
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKbqwl5sXJ
「鐺鐺鐺鐺！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNZ6diBIPn
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGKrX2wl9q
紅鶴往後跳，在空中擋下成千上萬發子彈，同時，彩繪玻璃有了新動作──兩片玻璃飛噴而出。派翠克扯開尼可拉斯之前包紮的繃帶，玻璃割破他的傷口，紫色蜜液以不尋常的量湧出。感覺不到痛的派翠克往空中一撒，蜜液流入每一把白色槍枝中，變成了子彈。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP6isqJO8O

派翠克不知道自己在說什麼，但腦海莫名閃過這幾字，而這幾字也讓他覺得自己越來越強，體內的水果塔力量不斷湧現。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBKU5UUcTm

派翠克衝到紅鶴面前，趁紅鶴擋子彈的空檔，槍身向上一勾，槍托正中紅鶴下巴。紅鶴悶哼一聲、整個人被打到空中；派翠克趁勝追擊，直朝紅鶴的腦門開槍。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlZtNQAG9s
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1OLU6aVCR
「……！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8g15sZXmP6
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzxgtmnQV1
紅鶴立刻躲開，蜜液子彈射中他的外套、飄來一股腐蝕味。重整態勢的他大笑、張開八根蜘蛛腳，朝派翠克的方向俯衝，打算將對方的臉扯爛；往下墜的派翠克抬手，所有飄浮在空中的白色槍枝準備就緒，在蜘蛛腳襲來的瞬間扣下扳機──933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLNzbwr3v5
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7vl0VwHE4
「鐺鐺鐺鐺鐺！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbh1HRGEolI
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4aX6L7Sam
派翠克的子彈全被紅鶴的蜘蛛腳擋下，紅鶴的刀向下一劈，派翠克用手裡的槍擋下，並在落地的瞬間單腳一蹬、翻到紅鶴身後。一藍一粉的身影在空中纏鬥，派翠克躲開紅鶴的蜘蛛腳，槍口朝後又是一發；子彈被紅鶴的刀擋下，另一根蜘蛛腳從其他角度襲擊。因為久戰不利，派翠克竟收起槍枝，趁勢抓住紅鶴的蜘蛛腳、一口咬下，連觀戰的尼可拉斯都嚇了一跳。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOB6vXj04K
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKTS6Ep8Vs
「……！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHq9eeH4K1
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnXbW8rdb5
紅鶴立刻發現不對勁，他一腳將派翠克踹開，卻已經來不及──派翠克的唾液也有毒，被咬的蜘蛛腳開始潰爛、變成恐怖的深紫色，毒素以不尋常的速度往紅鶴的本體蔓延。紅鶴不得已，拔刀、忍痛將中毒的蜘蛛腳砍斷。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUndjxQKYk
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0rNq8DL66
「唔！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRp2WkFbrz9
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQs9OS68oZZ
雖然抑制毒素蔓延，但紅鶴的汗流不停、咬牙切齒。尼可拉斯想起之前在監獄時，自己也曾斷他的蜘蛛腳──尼可拉斯大膽推測：蜘蛛腳是紅鶴的弱點。若能短時間全部砍斷，八隻腳或許都不能再生，擊敗紅鶴的關鍵就在這兒。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbd7bG0PqN
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGjI7nj4NK
「真難纏。」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPocGGJwxZ
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm3drSX29W
派翠克的眼裡閃過殺意，紅鶴擅自吻尼可拉斯的行為讓他十分憤怒。他揮動披風──彷彿變成武器，被披風打中的紅鶴就像被砍了一刀、胸口衣服破裂。派翠克拿出槍，直朝紅鶴的心臟扣下扳機。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYL5aJ6Rj2W
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA7xiZ1Jw4
「……！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmnbNJVJFo
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4COUVX6b1
雖然閃開，子彈還是射中紅鶴的右肩。毒素從肩膀暈開，中毒的紅鶴整個人摔到地面，右手開始脫力、握不住刀，所有蜘蛛腳像失去知覺般攤在地上，動也動不了。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCOJo01lwp

派翠克張開雙手，公爵夫人的彩繪玻璃浮現在身後，七彩的光芒透過玻璃照射下來，同時，上百支白色狙擊槍出現在派翠克兩側，一齊瞄準。背光的派翠克臉上矇著陰影，低吼：933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YnSvH7sNt

語畢，所有槍枝扣下板機，子彈在空中爆裂，大量的紫色蜜液鋪天蓋地般淋下。看著空中的派翠克與紫色液體，紅鶴的眼神漸漸渙散，時間彷彿慢了下來──他想起一百年前的某個早晨，某個海島國家的某座城鎮，天空也下著恐怖的酸雨。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJBjUTcCFV

身體被毒素侵蝕，體內出現微妙的化學反應。紅鶴難得恢復理智，沒了平時瘋瘋癲癲的模樣，意識比以往任何時候都要清晰。他想起白絃、想起他美麗的姊姊，心很久沒像這樣糾結，原來自己還有「快樂以外」的情緒。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsskQMdFFb

「姊姊……」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqCqRoSmA2

連聲音都變得不一樣，紅鶴平常的聲音像鈴鐺一樣尖銳，如今竟變成沉穩的男聲，這才是他原本的聲音。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ1t2YPvtl

933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6B1xb51TY
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4ZcfflYkR
紅鶴抬頭，全部的紫色蜜液突然停滯在空中，周遭陷入死寂。「框啷！」──派翠克身後的彩繪玻璃出現裂痕，應聲破裂。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiFG5Q8XG7
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFx67EBR4kL
「紅鶴……不，這是里奧取的名字，我不叫紅鶴！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDOZUf8m4x
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWLucQ7Xe9
背上的蜘蛛腳全部消失，紅鶴扶著右肩起身。他瞪著派翠克、瞪著尼可拉斯，用自己的聲音、自己的表情、自己的意識，大吼：933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlxjaEJSYM
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDv7Jj198a

933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3j7WRcw9AT
語畢，派翠克的封鎖線全數斷裂，大量的蜘蛛絲從紅鶴腳下噴出。整個候機室開始震動、地板裂出巨大的坑，所有屍體、椅子、擺設都落入坑中，牆壁與天花板開始崩塌，碎石被蜘蛛絲捲到四面八方，紅鶴人也被蜘蛛絲包了起來、形成一個巨大的繭。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq94dJGa5tX
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGro1anTBY
「唔啊！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmVKsTRFF8
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc25QFCef6
派翠克的槍枝盡數消失，體內的力量彷彿被吞噬，整個人摔進坑中。腎上腺素飆升的尼可拉斯掙脫束縛，飛快衝到派翠克身邊、抓住他的手。派翠克孔雀羽毛的披風因為震動脫落，掉到深不見底的坑洞裡。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNctMx7obF
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Hnf2tKyP2

「我哪知道！快上來，那傢伙瘋了！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmkVCTfNK6
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4kyyTG9GD
尼可拉斯將派翠克拉到地面，同時，紅鶴的蜘蛛絲彷彿有生命，派翠克才剛被拉上來，蜘蛛絲便猝不及防地撲向兩人，派翠克和尼可拉斯也被纏成一個繭，視野頓時陷入一片漆黑。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UD1Hkkmyw
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8Uz3IdMrd
「……！？」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1yIA8erUS
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKOArYbioZ
十秒後，繭破裂，景色恢復明朗，兩人卻被帶到另一個空間。音樂聲劃破空氣，剛剛的候機室完全消失，屍體、桌椅之類的雜物也不見，四周垂落暗紅色的帷幕，牆壁鑲嵌了數百音樂盒。尼可拉斯和派翠克正站在十公尺寬的舞台前，舞台背景是一尊巨大的女人雕像，派翠克一眼就認出雕像的臉。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNvX1P56DK
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1r0mBJx2OD
「白絃姊……？」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6OpsjSyf1
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDEwFhvPnf
沒錯，陌生的空間竟有一尊白絃的雕像。雕像的白絃宛如飄浮在空中，她雙腳微彎，身體微側，兩隻手藏在長長的袖子中，頭髮像被風吹起般披散後方。她閉著眼，像在聆聽什麼美麗的音樂，嘴角帶著淺淺笑意，莊嚴如神明。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4gOTmiOU2

「我以為，只有李博洋能憑空創造空間。」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2zWEvaPoc
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l3ZZZijbl
剛才明明在候機室，如今竟來到這樣一個地方。尼可拉斯驚訝到嘴巴微張，他問派翠克：「紅鶴不是水果塔後裔，為什麼可以……？」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cOARck2rV
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7HmdE6NoO
「『蜘蛛糖』。」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MtAmfhz3c
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP98RocNo8o
派翠克說出了令尼可拉斯陌生又熟悉的詞。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ty6S2uJPd
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheqijm3rzC
「除了水果塔，還有一種藥物叫『蜘蛛糖』，屬性和水果塔相似，被注射的人會出現蜘蛛的特徵，最明顯的就是蜘蛛腳。」派翠克壓低聲音：「但它的副作用比水果塔強，幾乎沒有實驗體成功存活……至少我以為沒有。」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2g8vXypgZv
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4ZbJOOBHL
尼可拉斯終於將所有線索連貫起來，「所以，曾經是Knight隊長的紅鶴，離開艾莉絲體系後注射了蜘蛛糖，變成今天這個模樣？」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoF3iJyerU
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPubbRoJcv7
「是的。」派翠克說：「跟他的打鬥讓我發現，他的意識非常混亂。雖然在笑，卻不是發自內心，他無法控制情緒，應該是蜘蛛糖的副作用之一。但剛剛的聲音、表情都和打鬥時不同，恐怕……！」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBA8ZoVD1n
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5DA6B82lb
說到一半，派翠克察覺到動靜、將尼可拉斯護在身後。紅鶴不知何時已經站在舞台中央，身上穿著一套粉紅色的英倫風制服，粉紅色的頭髮竟變成耳朵以上的長度，臉似乎也比之前年輕，看起來就像高中生，硬要和派翠克做出區別。933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBIizaSUCz
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA5P55cOqM
「……。」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSSfMXrix4
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjFqpNvXEE
紅鶴竟然沒在笑，他的表情非常冷漠，這也印證派翠克剛才沒說完的話──933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSykCgxBx1
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHHyZq3cnL
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshKh7GrJ5Y
「他的意識已經克服了蜘蛛糖。」933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPp8PuSuFav
933Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCVdLi8BhV
「獨立於水果塔之外，實力與白絃相當。」
