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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xK4RqeO82

「『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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVM7u5k7A0

「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGA5GK0q4g

「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeQJZmthc2
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXVBgusa72
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BAlyEiL2u
「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnoKeL6CVl
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YwunWL19S
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAc5Pu9PNtZ
「……」朗秘書長不說話。他摘下眼鏡，用手輕抬眼皮。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnhPLGxpIv
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDFaSMqlso
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OBlFxGfwO
「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！」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67RDB48XNg
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SBlXkwwYg
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqr9TVByy5
「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A5gRt2ry4
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmJHjRDKfy
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTnNbbvdTe
「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrGKSNyDrk
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CVfxULN31
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuYHhzUcoi
「注意你的態度。」朗秘書長唇角微微上揚：「你那些報告都很傑出，身為你曾經的指導教授，我以你的表現為榮。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡac2cLsMcnS

179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSOMFv1pR7
「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！」
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wSiJDHQYU
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKtYDrbFXQ
「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！」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPlCP5SfwW
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyCRPZhxZN
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AfTVPcDOU
「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJB5w8K7AJ2

「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzwShK9ghN
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQeaobsAJ3
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdn81LKzs4i
「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgQMOa2ZWh
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLsw1Dbn7F
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYHgW7IXm1
「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。」
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESOAKTjf2H
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26pujzg0LM
「……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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o2Om1YjDj

「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUfRySlcUW
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnIDSjarPA
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75SLAXENI4
「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTbjRu1pvK
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rvtze1MFM
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUjBKunnKz
「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEL0tJYA09

179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqtZPf5wdR
「……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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMYDO9o2wS

「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwF2K72bn4Z

「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecdw9QBRfW
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10ZT5pu4Uy
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwlld7knoN
「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLDJ97H6Aq
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRXyWMNmha
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5bGvvW5Ri
「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25HZz0W2pt
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNWAiZvLvi
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkooF2WOFVW
「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？」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUJB6dHhjq

「……我的確有理由，朗秘書長。」豪司凝視會議桌面，道。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziAIRstNJV
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ahOyDrqI8
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQl5uco8uKB
「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5RhyCeAyt

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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DDjnvO4nh
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bE7SUK7Wa
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVe0S5srBEo
豪司側過頭，他對少年有印象。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjF3lX92ts0
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7G32eVCRSL
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNX3YJeHG9
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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNlw7hNINJ
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sAX8wElYX
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqrNGBmTTh
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。
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwvneO6ovx
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtwfHlPKpw
「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtHHHQNaeY
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkSDxEeAAD
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVhj9c4xPi
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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhwDSbFky9
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8ojH039Hk
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zbEOrCMKR

179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7x04mPiPw
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvOcO5DITX
「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YABPRRDmM
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB0cxMUhZt
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4V3ejzeqc
「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvz6Lip3wP4
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVDm9KJ3uV
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYzyryYt4c
「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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfn48LmezM
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LTiRDu7OM
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxAbUn7aUx
「你很瞭解這些。」豪司笑看跟著他走的少年：「是魔方軍武迷嗎？」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlgNrH1LfG
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqPfbI5Z02
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjHbiKax3N
「 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。」179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ793uei5Kz2

「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfPF9w4lAN

179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CqsT3Qe5z
「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbigwD8q47
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡok9SSeEL8U
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVe0qy90dgc
「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。179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYubSZH3Vd
