維爾科和珍碧兒的老家位在東苑安第四大城──「邁加」隔壁的超級偏僻小鎮──「新加索鎮」。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRMvV731po

小鎮位在「第五道高牆區」，而維爾科的家正好與高牆比鄰而居。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxW8KSGy3ws

「高牆」也就是「鋼鐵牆」，環繞人類活動區域所形成的萬里圍牆。建造目的便是阻擋異獸，以及掩飾人類活動跡象。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiSjmyUkQ4

每道高牆都有該區的「防護員」看守。普通鋼鐵牆容易被異獸破壞，高牆防護員的職責便是為牆壁上一層魔方防護網，使其能有效遏阻異獸。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1QSIHF8SM

為了不打擾珍碧兒和蘇威，維爾科提早一站下車。離開火車站的他來到商圈，準備購買伴手禮回家。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPNdLn08ms

維爾科下站的地點正是邁加。邁加是一座先進繁華的城市，各式各樣的百貨商家林立其中。進入商圈的維爾科發現這裡正好在舉辦東洋貨大展。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZTNAq93br

東洋人，差點遭到滅族。維爾科看著寫滿東洋文的廣告看板，不禁回想課堂上教授過的世界歷史。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8LosV6vbu

由於「大雲隕石」墜毀，東方許多沿海國家遭到海嘯吞沒；隨後蟲洞開啟，異獸大舉入侵，東洋地區徹底淪陷。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEJIMjH0lM

異獸浩劫初期，大量東洋人逃到第一大國美利安和第二大國布列斯托尋求庇護，卻發生拒絕難民事件。所幸經人道團體斡旋，以及招開領袖會議，分攤難民數量並照顧其今後生活，才得以保住人種多樣性。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2SbLxPj2K

維爾科走馬看花了一回，六年的密集培訓讓他鮮少外出，這樣的市集活動讓他感到很新奇。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSYgPHZSJf

有很多跟維爾科同齡的人穿梭其中，他們都是沒有通過魔方測試的人。東苑安政府按照《國際多能感官培訓公約》規定，強制年滿十二歲人民，不論身世皆須接受魔方測試，通過後便培訓成操控魔方狙殺異獸的魔方軍。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj8JimTQkg

買完伴手禮回到車站的維爾科，隨意看著動態牆上的新加索鎮溫泉廣告，不禁感嘆自己離家許久。以前火車還不會開到新加索鎮，完全是因為近年轉型成溫泉鎮，班次才延伸到那。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3qZAhrDn0

維爾科在搭車前，已致電父親請他來火車站接送。由於獨子終於返家，父親放下工作說什麼都會來迎接！248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDsX7FxwHU

果然維爾科到站才沒多久，便看到好久不見的老爸一臉快哭的坐在老舊檔車上看他。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBR2jBhWLXj

「兒子啊！」老爸放聲嘶吼。維爾科稍微低頭，想裝作不認識。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOJWfCgwbH

爸爸看起來老了不少，下巴鬍渣有些都泛白了！維爾科難過地抿嘴。老爸，這六年你一定過得很辛苦吧？以後一定會讓你過好日子的！248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMc13zC9AWY

「在那邊都有吃飽睡好嗎？看看你，完全是男人樣了！以前的小不點都長這麼高了！」爸爸伸手想摸維爾科的頭，無奈怎麼都碰不著。維爾科趕緊彎腰，讓老爸能摸到。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP2FnnhBjX

「有好多事要跟你分享喔！先上車吧！」老爸笑道：「對了，能不就這樣，你用魔方弄台車出來開開？」說完手擺出握方向盤的動作。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgz7PqMN90

「好啦！問一下也不行。」老爸發動引擎，老舊檔車發出震耳欲聾的轉動聲。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYj6PAgLeNk

檔車一駛進離家不遠的小路上，馬上就有人高喊維爾科的名字。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRbmggpeBW
