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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VH4EHbClP

「『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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMqHPC6Zev

「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmm2f9YA4jn

「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXNuGX8kJR
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJI5E0XMPz
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vRvNiwV1O
「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBVSItuScD
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lJLnyLTWR
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6NN4k7zfm
「……」朗秘書長不說話。他摘下眼鏡，用手輕抬眼皮。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfkHGGmV6E
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5FWFGtuY0
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD53OVRODrJ
「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！」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUADhDJ5lfl
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gll712EQT
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKiZU04Xux
「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRs9UyRmTC
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweAYcq9dx4
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE65MJOeESH
「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajgwr1rKrB
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryJ8b6kbes

171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmovkNuCAj
「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！」
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOs0iJOw1y
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXCFl74Wx5
「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！」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu07Ar6N59L
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkhTxcCdbP
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkcz2HiLy3
「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoW3VBIqng
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8Xt3PavsZ
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyFVnVove2
「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdAxxfIxBp
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1Ri1R7Ucc
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZf94VaVYF
「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sUaVtORYp
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEB434Rbq6x
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYl0vlYUG8X
「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。」
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRg4Y6UhNv
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6l3TPG1vmx
「……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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrwdYWXGnr

「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCs40jpbAP
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6RkVQheOk
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprZIliEown
「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolLA8PI7VD
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBncEYAXnb
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4298MOjhmR
「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。」

「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxeKYJhkrL

171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9Lo9ONPE1
「……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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4P35lmYazu

「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSLdWhJo3X
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64dEqjRywM
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM6E3tdAj5
「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1me8gJFFsO
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbd70pjF2wx
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WgSD9CAug
「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEJk0AIMHh
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6p1VussRB
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPq4gOH90e
「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbZxByEqae
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdfyVW1Age
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dtBHRAUH5
「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？」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBSwHfpEN5

「……我的確有理由，朗秘書長。」豪司凝視會議桌面，道。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsg59oz1RhV
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUTVvjsGBD
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlDYX1tZhz
「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCs7TLh7lR

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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuM0V6zi8E
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQd5faAyl82
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70LddhENJD
豪司側過頭，他對少年有印象。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtt1MGucrl
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ915o5WanJw
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDN9Wd3zAJB
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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY03JHYRmA4
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyy8HOY9lu
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5xR6xG5mz
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。
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL7P6oHIFH
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVXmX7bGSx
「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXj43jk85Y
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cK94UvwUV
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOff0YBm5Ga
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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Cos5rXLr4
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbdhIEKvW8

「你……」豪司瞇眼，少年來到豪司面前。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb9ymO9r4E
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCVXEoRGj4
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WAXtsFGha
「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWzzNUV8zy
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNzv4ajUZC
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DfyBwAIKI
「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQy5I86ELO
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VlmMdA5sW
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7LC86veYx
「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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICdCBP9ZqA
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFPlnPxb8s
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtK5Hcr7kw
「你很瞭解這些。」豪司笑看跟著他走的少年：「是魔方軍武迷嗎？」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzClWZq5A4l
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoC9yX85JC
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSetuZGc2x
「 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。」171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLDDINtpSh

「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7V7wjwp1wW
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwdeCMsKfs
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3fgyeaKqW
「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDPy9BOtW8
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEO39Vbuckj
171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVh6YkL4Y5
「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。171Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL42DXdauqP
