左凜提起左翊這個名字時總會稍作停頓82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqaQqjTT2X
賀媞能聽出來，此人對左凜而言意義非凡82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZnab7Zo5z
晚風襲來，馬蹄聲也逐漸弱了下來82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hRJEn9vrh
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFYEeIm80y
他們來到了烏啼城西區的拘查所82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaDJlg9QxM
拘查所位於巷弄尾，一旁便是釀酒廠，故瀰漫著濃重酒氣82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnkwc7AFny
賀媞有些不安地縮起身體，片刻間又用衣袖摀住口鼻82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKu0db9g6WI
她發現空氣中有一股莫名的腐臭之味82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tCEv6my6i
如果不用衣袖摀住口鼻，她應該會當場吐出來82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmyr3CGNcQ
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF24S2ldyIf
拘查所總管就站在門口，拿著一本厚實的手帳82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAOODo84cO
他蓄著小巧的鬍子，身材矮小，腹部卻向外突出82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfseMhOpTZd
表情看似肅穆，但站姿卻十分歪斜82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaaEwyO9vG
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2hhFGylyx
左凜：「疑犯帶到了。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ofQx8exIv
總管：「啊辛苦了，左大人。用不著進去，人交給你處置便是。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnofTdp4PB
左凜：「李總管，疑犯帶到了。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTK4f8Y3NR
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAg77o6JVrW
眼看對方反應冷淡，左凜又重複了一次，這次語氣明顯加重不少82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡennkXLo8a7
但李總管並沒有因此改變態度，只是輕嘆一口氣82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUuai8BzSV
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpe7u0VJeA
李總管：「是炬揚客棧的事吧？但那些個草包，不都沒有親眼目睹嗎？既沒人證，也無物證，還是別浪費我們大人的時間了。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1GXjxlETc
左凜：「……還請您通稟一聲。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjzAlcaaIm
李總管這才有些不情願地將目光看向賀媞，但也就那麼一小會兒82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFNS4VtaYc
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5c8jRgExv
李總管：「哎呀，只是個小姑娘，你何必如此較真？送去名冠酒樓讓五娘好好調教調教，說不定還能有點樂子，真是個傻小子。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGANtI7snGk
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwdbCbei9q
左凜聞聲後，眉頭用力地皺了一下82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6RVjb2x1I
雖說早知道對方不會認真看待，他心中也認定賀媞不是犯人82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY84T7uXTvJ
但對方草率至此的態度還是令他心寒82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8yBpOv2bY
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxq51YtLUB
此時，不遠處響起了一陣陣鐘聲82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5D5HYjgRs
原先還倒在拘查所門外的幾名醉漢聞聲，突然全數起身82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKgTvtbO9W
就連李總管都扔下那本手帳，眉飛色舞地朝鐘聲奔去82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOfGSGOJwY
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BDa4BcrHq
「今天我一定要搶到！」「哈哈哈哈哈哈！」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGTlnFUF74
循著這陣狂笑聲望去，有些人光著腳，有些人衣不蔽體82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWmzdhETip
卻絲毫不以為意，臉上盡是癲狂糜爛之情82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFJeUAoA5T
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNks5EN9uDz
突然聽見一陣陣急促的腳步聲，賀媞顧不得心中恐懼82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSD5evNcNo
她開口：「左大哥，這是什麼聲音？為何有這麼多腳步聲？」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ohRdqqgF4
左凜：「無須在意，不過就是群瘋子。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFFTD8nASn
左凜再次牽起馬匹，緩步離開拘查所82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLJ5nUYmvQ
賀媞緊抓著囚車圍欄，繼續問道82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QScLjCMMH
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5G1d5ZuNEb
賀媞：「剛剛那人是誰？拘查所官員嗎？」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSx3PRydk6N
左凜：「姑且算是，但我也不過是來試探一番，不會真的將你關在此處。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQzDkJvw8i
賀媞：「試探？」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZgTTBlSVE
左凜：「……等到了安全的地方再詳說。」

82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzFvbjluCg
左凜帶著賀媞來到一間小食堂82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bDDINR3TH
一名包著頭巾的年輕女子正蹲坐著，清洗著數條還沾著泥土的白蘿蔔82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoEIY0zgjL
女子聽見有聲音靠近，轉頭一望，露出淺笑82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaufrlIAmuM
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZmscnTRG1
女子：「左大人來啦？還是老樣子？」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4lOtGlRub
左凜：「嗯，也麻煩為這位小朋友準備。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMpSL8axIQ
女子：「小事一樁，馬上來。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEansci66lb
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgVCNiOeus
女子幹練地搬起清洗好的白蘿蔔後走進廚房82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVpqsGOCCW
不一會兒，賀媞就聽見鍋鏟碰撞的聲音82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLVfs2ZDKC
空氣中還不時傳來陣陣食物的香氣82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtheNMFMVr
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyPM7HP01x
左凜拿出鑰匙將賀媞從囚車中放出來82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMfutH2kAQ
賀媞剛下囚車時，只覺得頭暈目眩，渾身癱軟無力82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yW3i4ImgW
但在聞到食物的香味後，她才發現自己許久未進食了82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLBNZA1oeV
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrq5SoBuNd
這是這幾天來，賀媞第一次覺得自己餓了82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBjMUAthMN
她努力嗅聞空氣中的香味，有些無力地趴在桌上82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctoXhH3hoc
女子沒三兩下就變出了兩碗乳粥與烙餅上桌82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fOf64Owfd
香噴噴的新鮮烙餅，再加上煮得恰到好處的乳粥82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy35JT6j8Jj
賀媞不等左凜說話，馬上開始大吃起來82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH58Qf96IbS
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQaNzGoDrd
女子清洗好雙手，再次走出廚房時，手裡多了一套玉製酒器82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mLbySiZ2C
她雖身材瘦弱，但渾身散發出精明能幹的氣息82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRl41xzTWP
和方才那群笑著狂奔而走的「瘋子」們相比著實令人安心不少82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvL9tSC2NW
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqmNYeF9yt
她一臉笑盈盈地看著狼吞虎嚥的賀媞82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WyCfTwn84
女子：「好久沒有人吃我做得餅吃得那麼香了。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWLUxhDB2r
女子衝著賀媞一笑，但發現她看不見後82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjVYdSj5hP
又悄悄往盤子上放了兩塊烙餅82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4BCXUmRzV
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsUlrJJw9b
女子：「對了，這是先前說好的新釀，左大人嘗嘗。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfwY3xgE2t
左凜：「先謝過。范大人那裡可有消息？」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZyFaOhSlU
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCanuPzvffs
左凜拿起一只玉杯，動作輕巧地拿起那玉製酒器82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBd903kw7f
將酒水盛滿整只玉杯後啜飲起來82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMbdJqCCdQ
女子的雙眼仍沒有離開賀媞，但開口答道：「東西放在老地方。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXlGz3bhQR
左凜於是放下玉杯，走向擺放藥草的藥櫃82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2saluwKrA
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg37zSe0nw8
女子：「但這孩子該怎麼辦？真要送去五姊姊那裡嗎？」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6ebGAqkJ9
左凜：「姑娘從何處得知？」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmghsz8e1Ki
女子：「哈，左大人莫不是太久沒進城了？這裡可是烏啼，四面八方皆是大人眼耳。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMmJkMAocQ
左凜：「說得是。那五娘那裡……」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuibEMr1IcN
女子：「通報過了，但不知這孩子通不通音律。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡng5IUyMxuV
左凜：「只能先按計畫送過去，西區太過危險。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WuDuMSyx2
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wgpVfHFmC
就在兩人談論之際，賀媞已經吃了整整三塊烙餅82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNKnogOPit
還喝下一大碗粥，她覺得自己從來沒有這麼餓過82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIWaKXK2yf
以前就算父親一次上齊整桌菜，她也不曾吃得這麼撐82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpbz3Bh7b6
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAsOKKZmY9
賀媞：「嗝……我真的吃不下了……」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpfoZP3wzj
女子：「哈哈哈，下次想吃隨時來找我，我叫鮑姬。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Labc0MeJO
賀媞：「謝謝鮑姬姐姐！」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZTCKon0Ly
鮑姬：「哎呀，真討人喜歡。」82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoWw2ZKU0f
82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIWfH1EkXO
賀媞與鮑姬一見如故，兩人紛紛露出笑容82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqAx2Qwk14
左凜將信封從藥櫃中取出，從旁看到這一幕82Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi54WxGmy5
也展露了這趟旅程中不曾見到的笑容
