據偉兹所知286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTnTfJWu2O
雷爾夫先生是位退役軍人，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMZVGCFxMo
同時也是年紀相近朋友———286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetl47fC8yM
帕特里克·普斯特的父親。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaY1brK1SF
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5c4Uuzm4C
偉兹與雷爾夫先生首次見面就是始於鄰近鎮上的阿登步道。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60vSoEiSbU
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE6xvLH7vg
阿登步道就是條人手鋪設的花崗石路，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3nlxrjIxi
週邊是綠意盎然的森林。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzXhtqkj9u
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9zFrKtehy
白天時基本上就只有松鼠，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51Ev1wBUo8
白兔等毫無威脅性的野生動物。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWXe8yhqt7
是個因環境優美及空氣清新而受鎮民歡迎的消遣休憩之地。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSS0uGs6Gn5
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNN7f3cYMfS
但近期傳有野豬在步道附近出沒的傳言，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1qP4MQX3m
鮑伯農場亦受到野豬滋擾。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Xiey39hrD
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInNGdMo65O
帕特里克和偉兹在森林中嬉戲時也受到襲擊，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIzCcfunJT
幸好雷爾夫先生及時來到驅逐了野豬。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXrkHu5D8r
兩人才沒受到傷害。
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsB78QiZHq
這次之後，
偉兹便立志要成為像雷爾夫這樣的男子漢。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6sYUsOyU2
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb68DatwdOC
而今天早上，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5efmksTkrU
偉兹踏單車路經普斯特家家前巧遇剛回到家的雷爾夫先生。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNQmUI54dg
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8u5oJShxt3
偉兹從車頭的布袋內抽出一紮報紙，
抛向雷爾夫。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7UD9BVofZ
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVWjQYoXBg
“早安，雷爾夫先生！帕特里克的腳沒有大礙吧？” 286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6ER5grTJW
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuBfx8GMIw
“原來是偉兹呀，請別嚇我。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41aCRORLWB
帕特里克應該再休息一天就可以和你去玩了，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugxp4lBDzj
但請不要再去阿登步道了哦。″ 286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4HQ3jcUcd
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQdn0VCwqu
雷爾夫的反應似乎不如平時般從容，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0poTFWrA2W
反而像為躲避著什麼而鬼鬼祟祟似的。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJq60mqlaC
若不是偉兹認識雷爾夫，他定必會被當成小偷。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8d2A9bJCN
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35ybuBn8Fo
“我知道了！”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuOSvPMXcm
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5EAdWaUA2
雷爾夫接下報紙後，背後的家門緩緩張開，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSvBnegB08
門內散發著一陣比他在戰時從敵軍身上感受過都強的敵意，被他狩獵過的動物和惡魔都兇猛的攻擊性。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3VJtprUv7
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSls7ACYVP
雷爾夫沒有馬上轉身，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclWprgnUrn
在戰鬥開始前至少要讓無辜的偉兹離開。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAJgrcWj6a
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8PrZJrs5w
“早安！普斯特夫人！”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzH79YueLW
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDtvNGwyJB
“早安呀偉兹，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8IuMiEa4G
記得要成為一個有責任感和時間觀念的男子漢哦！你說對不對？ 親 愛 的。”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHk9AJ5jeLW
普斯特夫人回應時雖然臉帶微笑，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeUfhFdSJC
但也讓偉茲感受到微弱的壓迫感。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFzC2syQUR
而且這話可能根本不是說給自己聽的。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ELgu2sHnn
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKf403qjIiY
“說得也對呢，我差不多要上學了，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnRbc7LiII
得趕去最後一戶，再見兩位.....”
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriznKpC2c0
偉兹語氣沒有了剛才的熱情。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8DpYHrCso
普斯特夫婦也笑著揮手回應，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtISTcvPNWx
雷爾夫臉上的笑容像是帶著一點哀愁。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdMnohgoxS
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzfmwedk3n
“親愛的，你不會是剛剛才回到家吧？”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fyYDeSB37
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KzMzRekHJ
″當....當....當然不是呀，艾露娜......″286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjZeNviYun
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeVEV2Fibq
偉兹沒有再聽下去，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN8VVhcmhH
只是在疑惑著雷爾夫先生是不是和安東尼一樣有口吃。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRC8SawcAXC
很多年後已成人父的他才能稍稍理解雷爾夫的感受。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuckS2NnfG
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtiMsqyYrf
最後一站，威克森家就在普斯特家對邊。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqTUPjgdAA
偉兹一直對擔任過警察的衛威恩非常感興趣，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjd5ulSTkt
衛威恩年幼時曾和家人一度遷出大城市，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDgTlm1wu0
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZpHqtYwSw
於半年前某件有關鮑伯農場的案件後。 286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWEP6xtrof
心灰意冷的衛威恩交出警章和配槍，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrMKDiTm8a
獨自回到諾谷湖鎮居住。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E7Vf01lqm
但奇怪的是偉兹從沒見過衛威恩本人。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0smtKasVg6
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8aKiJEXpb
比起流傳著奇怪傳言的雷爾夫，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YKlVm4B93
衛威恩在鎮上的風評確實不俗，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DjK6SfFPb
市集的商店老闆都欣賞他爽快和正直。
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7KubiMwTy
留在和睦的鎮上是種浪費，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJg0E0Z3fTM
他應該回到大城市繼續撲滅罪惡，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48J9lFifFq
成為守護市民的警察才對。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOYqaXhchL
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZEISnNPmM
偉兹來到威克森家前，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqsd7iRHCV
而門前有一位偉兹非常熟識的訪客在和衛威恩交談。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgW41bzmEys
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CP2K0vcm6
這是最後一站，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBy7d9ceih
偉兹把單車停泊在道路旁，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLgeWF18NN
他不用拋的派送方式，下車親手遞給衛威恩。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCjt3mXMht
藉此一窺洛城警署三級警探的風采。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPZHPyRvri
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8pTIosix8
“先重組整合一下，
你是在說昨晚駕駛貨車時遇到一列樹木像骨牌般倒向車道，你以過人的技術全部迴避開。
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6JyljHq3i
貨車進退兩難時，我就出現了？”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7tarsbfC5
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlzoDkKzgU
″對.....對....你.....還說什...什麼雨水關係,還徒..徒...手搬開倒在地上的...樹幹″ 286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJCd1L6CVa
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUk6z09SP4J
“安東尼，我和無數擅於說謊的罪犯交手過。
他們的証詞永遠讓人非常可信，
但我永遠能找出隱藏在細節內的漏洞。”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADKVMC5rfx
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eLjK739Aq
“但我...沒....有犯罪....” 286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3LBg8Et0l
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDQfi2VPmw
“我當然知道了朋友，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jytgwcfHR
但我雖然很強壯也不可能徒手搬起重至上噸的樹木吧？”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudcCxjGKa3
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqh1OMQAuW
“好像有...道...理” 安東尼看向衛威恩的雙臂說道。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnuiQyyS5Y
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqTImQV2jY
“可能你只是太累了，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gch3aq7yc
我昨晚在家睡了一整晚，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbos4alvlVH
直至你的拍門聲弄醒我。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxEb8rOkR9
所以又怎可能出現在你眼前呢？”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0o1j45GlKn
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuw6lml28M
“抱.....歉”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62TzOJcvjP
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHgTXHDyK3
“沒問題的，
我累的時候也會想起雷金納德和那個膽小的警監上司。
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASIUJluORf
可能你真的遇上樹木倒塌意外，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRubTKf72M
但是你疲勞和內心的恐懼又把一棵想成兩棵三棵，甚至更可怕的景象。” 286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIW9H5ZaAwT
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfFVjfnd7Q
安東尼想起昨晚倒向貨車後又突然消失的樹木，經過衛威恩的引導他開始懷疑起自己。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xUazvhObP
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74YLta4NX0
“人呀在最困難的時候總會回想起最重要的人，
昨晚那個我就只存在於你的腦海裡，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0PIAHal1r
給你重要的提示好讓你鼓起勇氣脫離險境。”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszb9p621Jl
衛威恩以食指輕點安東尼的心臟位置說。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjgrKDVtXM
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqiO9WyTn5
安東尼本來就是個不擅措辭的人，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkeW8vV3GJ
在口齒伶俐的衛威恩臉前突然一度語塞。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdb8EpS2Jz
衛威恩乘著此空檔又接著說。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3Xnz9hsTX
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcHn0WJn6f
“無論如何，你昨晚也經歷過糟透了的事。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbdXFUYoWY
現在要做到就是和我一起去吃早餐，
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8s8W9HzAms
完成今天的工作後休息幾天，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchx8pzR1xh
像我一樣調整下步伐再面對人生。
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPij2OvIaf
抱歉，小孩 讓你等了一段時間。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpj8YbAhfm
希望我們的交談沒有耽誤你寶貴的時間。 286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOa1JZUhkk
衛威恩．威克森”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFi4jTRL1d
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImGJhkfiQc
衛威恩從偉兹手上接過報紙的同時，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2hPKbuTQk
伸出左手表示友好。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfrpfsuL7J
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsfFECHx1F
“我是偉兹．霍華德，當然沒有耽誤呀！”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVkIfGmgdD
偉兹緊握衛威恩的左手後準備離去。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVF8mEOaGrh
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtQNP3h2JK
“你不...不....和我們一起吃早餐嗎”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa63Dg1oUuu
安東尼聽完衛威森的話後，多少也有點釋懷。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJu8evtxCj
希望和兩位朋友一起吃早餐以放鬆心情。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdtVfxYQtL
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LGyAJAAJF
“下次吧，我還得把單車泊回家。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3e7eJRxYy
再見了衛威恩先生和安東尼，286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2p4VcHfVWQ
祝你們有美好的一天”286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DWat0eoZ3
286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmc2X8ubU3
“再見”兩人異口同聲向衛兹道別。286Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw4R3uN9bp
