2157年6月15日，上午八點，史密斯列車737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagqdNqGcr5

父親死後，史密斯列車好久沒這麼安靜了。奧斯卡跪在一具黑色的棺材前，雙手十指交叉，低頭禱告，希望他的兄弟能安息。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0I4uI2L8Nm
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVBB7aQhxA
五天前，泰勒的屍體被人發現。他跪坐著、手裡握著貫穿他身體的刀，看起來像自殺。史密斯所有人悲痛欲絕，奧斯卡也暫停計畫，優先處理泰勒的後事。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPA4R4VQC2
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpFOTtotbl
雖然行駛在大西洋下的海底隧道、無法為泰勒下葬，但史密斯列車有幾具特殊棺材，能防止大體腐壞；還有設計成教堂的車廂，能為死者禱告。因此，奧斯卡不擔心泰勒的後事，而是泰勒的死因，他覺得很不對勁。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuse8tZv2sq
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5MZskYPiO
那天中午，泰勒跟他討論計畫，看起來毫無異狀。奧斯卡相信泰勒是被殺死的，但兇手是誰？他們行駛在海底隧道，與世隔絕，犯人只可能是其他史密斯。想到這，奧斯卡便睜開眼睛、停止禱告，思索哪位弟妹的可能性最大。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIwZD1ooNA
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagtuBq4bRL
「奧斯卡哥哥。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdRWJr0w79
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGij49e7MU
奧斯卡身後突然傳來女孩的聲音。他回頭，老四特蕾莎．史密斯（Teresa Smith）坐在輪椅上，來到奧斯卡身後。她是個陰沉的女孩，金色的長髮蓋住她的臉，只露出一顆灰色的眼睛，及臉頰上的雀斑。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUz9baLtfGB
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztjbrQPTsF
「怎麼啦，特蕾莎？」奧斯卡打起精神，露出符合他紅色頭髮的開朗微笑，以免弟妹擔心。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTc2uk3mjS
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2fkTc9cLU
「給泰勒哥哥的禱告，換我來吧。」特蕾莎有氣無力地說：「你去看一下艾琳姊姊，比較好。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtUxSx47m7
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XpOkwSbZp
「艾琳？」奧斯卡眨了眨眼，「她怎麼了？」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNVPll8ANk
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWc4BMGufQ
「……昨天晚上，又開始了。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlNCSfJAp4
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHwn0JyolG
看到特蕾莎的表情，奧斯卡就知道發生什麼，於是聽妹妹的話，朝艾琳的房間走去。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKrcHtpPDC
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizM3wS9Ico
艾琳排行老三，是奧斯卡最自豪的妹妹。她精明、能幹，什麼表演都難不倒，也是史密斯馬戲團最有觀眾緣的表演者，但兄弟姐妹都知道，艾琳得了一種怪病。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6qeeP0Xm5
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRfoWlFJ3s
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolDxisCSKC
「啊啊！啊啊啊啊啊啊！啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjj9V9fcyy
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4B5GeXGQ5
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgDDvQeRqn
穿過一節節車廂，還沒走到艾琳的房間，奧斯卡就聽見她的尖叫。房裡的艾琳不知道用什麼東西撞擊牆壁，震耳欲聾的「磅！」、「磅！」聲讓奧斯卡非常著急，也非常害怕，開門前一度陷入猶豫。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgatw55aOt
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB2QgW2Xj3
「艾琳！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxkC4wnXAx
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZED6D7o4m
但手足之情，奧斯卡還是開門。艾琳原本黑色牆壁的房間，被潑滿了紅色、黃色、橘色的油漆。艾琳人站在十幾個油漆桶之間，各種顏色的油漆混雜在身上，猶如一隻被石油汙染的海鷗。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24XcGlzmf9
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbHn26jcS6
「啊啊！啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊啊！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaSnofJfKh
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4EGiFlH26
艾琳的長髮全部黏在臉上。她用指甲抓自己的臉，喉嚨擠出破碎的尖叫。奧斯卡衝上前，來不及關心，艾琳就把他壓倒在地，兩手掐住奧斯卡的脖子。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMIl6fuSLt
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CsmiXYnEj
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIP3NYFEbfT
「尼…尼可……尼可……！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zO84Gv7gj
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWsqiMVUb7
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmygtvoSMzu
艾琳瞋大的藍色眼睛瞪著奧斯卡，嘴巴開始碎念聽不懂的話。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGCJ7iLsgH
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4DcLk5NFf
「尼可……在哪裡……！我的寶貝……尼可……！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNu7tjmySq
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8gSq52Qoe
「唔……艾琳！艾琳！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XUa5gJLB7
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSeobJv1t5
奧斯卡的頭髮和衣服也被染上油漆。他抓著艾琳的手，脖子被掐得十分難受。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzFRXL38fj
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGh7ym9mXg
「你是誰！？你是誰！？尼可在哪裡……在哪裡！！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzumXwR5p65
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtz6x3WTTcP
「艾琳……是我！我是哥哥！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0stJz9Gyw2
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7txkKnZIL5
奧斯卡不得不採取蠻橫的手段。他一拳打到艾琳臉上，多虧如此，艾琳掐他脖子的手終於放開，摔到一攤黃色的油漆裡。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0h768aI68
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1k85kaQfa
「醒醒，艾琳！我是哥哥！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUCs04vycs
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLcipCYOP3
「哥哥……不！不是！你才不是我哥哥……！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGhgQtBrsa
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBeX6VwHGl
「混帳！妳給我看清楚！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9AO1J3Bio
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9d901Ck5Ij
奧斯卡一手抓住艾琳的肩膀，另一手從後面揪住艾琳的頭髮，強迫妹妹與自己直視。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALDLppOjN5
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBK5V7DUow
「艾琳．史密斯！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClATcyIeRk
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHOet868BV
奧斯卡對她大吼：737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisP8Kd3648
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyn6TkwtgD1
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ehcVAuA6j
「她是艾琳，她是史密斯！我不管妳是誰，滾出我妹妹的身體！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19cHA2P0fC
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKBUIl6xYR
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gRHul1mMz
「……！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8GfvG30cC
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnM6y8LWMc9
奧斯卡的話起了功效。下一秒，艾琳摀著臉，一會在地上打滾，一會弓起身子。她尖叫、咆哮，嗓子都已經叫啞，開始乾嘔。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhUdhW00rl
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BfUbRsHO1
「嗚嗚……啊啊……嗚啊……！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57hnrnkKja
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77Fr1edgsw
眼淚從艾琳的眼裡流出來。她看向奧斯卡，雙目終於聚焦，臉也回復人類應有的血色。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOqVJMnvBZ
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqa14T0mnY
「哥哥……天啊！哥哥！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFu98XiJI47
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPWdGTSrFZ
艾琳回來了。看到奧斯卡脖子上的掐痕，她哭著問：「我對你做了什麼？你的脖子……我剛剛打算殺死你嗎？」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNeEufM8tH
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeurWRlEqr
「沒事，沒事。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz09SkLAHON
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJwvxfWixM
奧斯卡總算放下心來。他指著脖子，開玩笑地說：「這是我自己畫的，很逼真吧，哈哈！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpIFdhkoNM
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrKzK7YYAA
「少騙人了！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzP93yQdwJ
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCLG39YM3x
艾琳抱住奧斯卡，哭著罵：「哥哥，你有什麼毛病，還有心情開玩笑！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAiHw0lbDa
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3bLLUsepY
「我是馬戲團團長，逗人開心是我的工作。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVeYICKpUc
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsBkNtYXL0
奧斯卡抱著艾琳，一手輕拍她的背，同時，雖然艾琳的頭髮被油漆染得亂七八糟，奧斯卡還是發現，妹妹的髮色越來越淡，逐漸從漂亮的深褐色，變成銀白色。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlJcXA4yph
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM1Ssjpm77
「妳沒事就好。」奧斯卡親親艾琳的臉頰，「泰勒走了，我不能再失去妳。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTTTB5hTEl
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeP0NkcSOZz
「我知道，對不起……！」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppy5DRBHXK
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsq96R0bsn
艾琳在奧斯卡身上哭了五分鐘。哭完後，她打起精神，朝奧斯卡露出放心的笑容。她請哥哥先離開，因為她需要時間清洗自己，也得處理一團亂的房間。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvbnQy6SYs
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OenzpqCrS
確認人沒事，奧斯卡離開艾琳的房間，排行第四的特蕾莎在走廊等他。少女坐在輪椅上，表情僵硬地盯著奧斯卡，「怎麼樣？」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKN6gPzq5Q
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZ1ASP3pWM
奧斯卡沒有回話，反問特蕾莎：「今天有什麼新聞？」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU38LshHUuo
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfow2rXLr0W
「B區有個工人，受不了老闆壓榨和超時工作，昨晚上吊自殺了。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpACqmcYyE2
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsaRCzlmmq
特蕾莎知道奧斯卡想問什麼，補了句：「是個油漆工人。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaExtGx9zH5
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCIco6UTAx
「……。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJU7VP4JhG
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsu81J7Ipf
奧斯卡的表情非常凝重。他深吸一口氣，告訴特蕾莎：「再這樣下去，艾琳會消失。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGKHjrNeaV
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDZ9ueoGK8
「嗯。」特蕾莎點頭，「所以？」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xPZJSMFRd
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5aWNxv0hp
「妳幫我調查『尼可』。」奧斯卡說：「我要確認，艾琳身體裡的，是不是那個人。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppaUrmp9Az
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eTLnKhYx6
「OK。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsnKbOM4OU
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aZzZYRnns
特蕾莎面前有個觸控面板，她平時都用這個操控輪椅。就在她準備離開時，特蕾莎突然想到什麼，將輪椅轉向奧斯卡。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxelyt3ik6y
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxaaZwmGVW
「如果真的是那個人，」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjK2jIwDkZR
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPvwyRXo3a
特蕾莎問：「奧斯卡哥哥，殺死艾琳姐姐的工作，能讓給我嗎？」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhISr002fs
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSWQtsfhvf
「可以。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruNZSMQn69
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvHSleEM2Z
奧斯卡把頭轉到另一邊，「我下不了手，交給妳了。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IBbWvyBYc
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmqrkKqt61
「謝謝奧斯卡哥哥。」737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXLauvK9GK
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLzBeLrvQb
特蕾莎微笑，「泰勒哥哥一定會很高興。」
