自離開歐利伽米之後，這三天眾人一直各忙各的沒空聯絡。難得梓承和克里斯惹得哄堂大笑，驚魂甫定的各人便索性在原地交換起情報來。
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpQBuFLLih
綜合各人所說，梓承很快便掌握到大家在過去兩天的動向。首先是莫里斯和丹尼花了兩天時間，終於成功聯絡正躲著衛兵隊的克里斯。然後就在雙方見面的時候，一群灰衣人不知從何處冒出來見人就斬，而正在街上做直播的維比還有替馬庫斯買藥的艾莉娜更是首當其衝。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzG7WzKdnK2
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWk1B3MQX0W
維比想起剛才千鈞一髮的處境，帶着餘怯的怒道：「那些衛兵之前還到處抓人，現在竟然在街上半個人影都沒看到，就連衛兵局的大門也被反鎖，根本兩幫人就是蛇鼠一窩嘛！如果剛才不是菲恩及時放箭，後果真的是不堪設想！」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vjFXwh28q
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7XGJDfvgD
丹尼聞言朝地上啐了一口唾沫，手指劈啪作響的道：「我認得那些灰衣人裡頭有幾個黑道的傢伙，沒想到魯珀特的混帳竟然跟黑道聯手對付普通市民。怎樣，有誰想跟我去衛兵局大鬧一番，出出這口烏氣？」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7X4cfo9Cj
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgnBuKgjg5
對此提議，坎迪絲和部份學生當然立即拍手叫好，但莫里斯和埃里克卻認為當前急務是要把傷者送到聖域醫療隊總部。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxFEibEu9c
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnBVx9YAXb
就在各人七嘴八舌議論紛紛之際，一直在一旁沉默不語的艾莉娜突然聽到了一聲呼喚。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9IQD0pBeu
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o1qAmRtd7
「艾莉娜，你還好嗎？有沒有受傷？」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSP111tYbq
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRe9y3Ogw0T
她抬頭一望，只見梓承一臉擔憂的看著自己。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotjVvSqHkp
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaQAScgElB
又一次被菲恩保護了呢。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUdJgP05Hg
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYLqnu5iTP
艾莉娜想起在阿爾塔湖，在那漫天螢火蟲的湖邊，眼前這個男生向她許下了一個小小的承諾。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIqpi4jSF7
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS44NQ4p9mP
你會保護我嗎？534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3wkP7j4Jc
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaWFIhWAgS
他做到了。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRASpMQzR9M
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlSpfL6TBa
可是她並沒有感到特別高興。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynTljA7cqy
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIzYZYPTve
「我……沒事。」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzKhTyNARY
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UHooMywZ7
不對，這不是她想要說的話。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8rso94xzX
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuwcI6XZNO
可是看著梓承靜靜地站在那裡，擔心的神情寫滿了整張臉，原本想要說的話便卡在喉嚨說不出來。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShaJmgwoSo
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEY0Wg59slt
「菲恩履行了湖邊那晚的承諾呢。」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkslyba6qc1
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WyuELZUiO
艾莉娜莞爾一笑，嫣然大方的笑靨讓梓承不覺看得痴了。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyl3haAPPDP
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFq4Xf0vQHG
但很可惜，他始終沒能察覺到那張笑臉背後隱藏着的淡淡哀傷。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkSViJtcr5
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdqkg59MAQ
要這樣一直躲在他的背後受他保護嗎？534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XNt48ajiq
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrP12smQ5A
自目睹梓承在競技場賭命似的戰鬥之後，艾莉娜便開始意識到，自己不願躲在這個男人的背後，一次又一次看著對方為了別人弄得傷痕累累而自己卻什麼都做不到。尤其當聽到坎迪絲眉飛色舞地說著梓承如何在河堤上以遊戲退敵，還有維比稱讚着梓承百步穿楊的箭術成功將大家救出，當初在祈願殿堂因為全是無用技而沮喪不已的男生，現在已經成為她無法輕易講出「想要跟你並肩一起走」的英雄。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpddQuLZccD
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg5lfS6oNO
「只有【關愛】和【分享】兩個無用技的我，有資格站在你身旁嗎？」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYCK6yQXcA
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XhQ5Ah2uh
她想不通，為什麼想走在喜歡的人身邊竟然會是這麼的困難。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvfp75jJ48
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0yujpVRLl
就像那晚在湖邊捉緊了的溫度，如今正在不知不覺中逐漸消失，而她卻一點辦法都沒有。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiH43FuvIi
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMYfNF3v9L
「如果我也能戰鬥的話……」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGPvt6JnxX
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEL4MkL11q
就在一滴淚水從艾莉娜臉頰滑落之際，雪露的呼喊剛好讓梓承轉過了頭，錯過了最重要的那一秒。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnbpDaNtpP
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BENFq6Q58
艾莉娜聽著雪露和梓承對答。在經歷數次出生入死之後，某種牽絆正在這兩人之間交織起來。而相對地，艾莉娜卻感到跟梓承之間的距離越來越遠。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKBGhWUmgR
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3IRh38WQI
「艾莉娜……」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUnltdBhcm
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqm5xyNEzT
梓承跟雪露說罷回過頭來，但艾莉娜卻已經不在。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzr8NTkq8O
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDnhZqgmRa
「你有能力救人，但憑這樣的你還是無法給她幸福的。」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVhMgwZ8iw
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxYnpxdiF9
莫里斯突如其來的說話讓梓承止住腳步，一臉愕然站在原地。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVPjqC31Pi
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjq6JkEnQcu
「莫里斯，你這句話是什麼意思？」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlu4Hc628bd
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0oqI2DUEu
「你對艾莉娜有多了解？她的過去、她的喜好、她的想法，你知道多少？我跟她一起在聖域長大，十多年時間，她所有的優點和缺點我都清清楚楚。」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKKn2vHY1b
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvhLrG2Sua
「我知道你和艾莉娜情同兄妹，但……」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lgJX3xQWC
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYzg9gM26S
「誰要跟她情同兄妹啊！」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YeqPzxDJI
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofIu19Ogrj
「咦？」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlHjt5fyDl
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdPE8SR0XC
「我一直都喜歡艾莉娜！」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBml9XNFuak
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASgjiiYuHs
咦？534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NjEC5eMrr
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXa8YN1Gfy
慢著慢著，莫里斯那傢伙說什麼？534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAb9Axukgk
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJraBMjWD1
喜歡？534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQOJzBYrPe
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IHFG5gS6F
梓承起初還以為自己聽錯，但看到莫里斯正經八百的模樣，他突然想起在歐利伽米的時候，莫里斯就硬塞過一瓶超難喝，口感猶如生吞惡臭史萊姆的提神劑給他。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvvTwlxFI5
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mDF7Xh6hg
「你這傢伙！那晚給我超難喝的提神劑，原來是在公報私仇！」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWdARUbMig
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVPgogjXFQ
莫里斯嘿嘿一笑道：「怎樣？要保命退出的話，現在還不算遲哦。」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0un6pEPRmg
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUaBx72qWB
作為一個標準宅男，梓承在愛情面前打退堂鼓本是理所當然的事。可是當他一想到離開赫澤爾頓之後，這生恐怕難再看到艾莉娜的笑臉 —— 一種陌生的揪心痛楚讓他打住了念頭。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2t8suy6Jo
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4knYzM43za
最後他選擇了無視莫里斯的喊聲，邁步往前追上艾莉娜。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQSUh847G0
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoi0e0DEeQ
不管了。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEzG5qq3k8
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUk0EOwWjw
即使離開赫澤爾頓之後要去哪裡、要怎樣生活，還有許多細節現在都沒有答案，但這刻他還是想把這份任性的想法傳遞給她。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJ3MKZe6Sh
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxqzjPlHY2
最後他從後捉住了艾莉娜的手。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMJC1kfgNB
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGHwTp6cVx
「等等，艾莉娜。有件事……」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUycxFMGSI
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WuZXBuNrh
「你們怎麼可以突然在這裡封路！」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoYF2LFIsa
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuYxuRP7am
「不就是嘛！我們是普通市民，你們衛兵隊憑什麼無緣無故妨礙我們回家！」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6psmVokow3
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM9pITcaJF
梓承呆一呆，發現前面人山人海。在愛德華大道中央位置，不知道什麼時候被衛兵架起了一道臨時關卡，將通往豪宅區的道路徹底堵死了。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Vk3tKPEPL
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5tPxN5yFT
「你們現在正進行非法集結，請馬上離開，否則我們將會使用最低武力將你們驅趕！」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZVAH9KnRq
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQJIzSslwx
衛兵冷冰冰的廣播進一步激化已經沸騰了的民怨。不少人甚至開始向臨時關卡投石，嘴上破口大罵。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPkWV049oL
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjng3KPc32
「不見人！剛才那些灰衣人襲擊我們的時候你們這些衛兵隊跑到哪裡啦！」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSv9GN8zyo
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZlYVa4rpv
「你們這些衛兵隊知不知道羞恥兩個字呀！」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnPUKjm7jK
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3MnyASmu2
在一片「開關」的喊聲下，衛兵隊再次豎立黑色的警告旗幟，手持盾牌和武器的衛兵在關卡面前一字排開，眼見流血衝突是已經無可避免。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9iVkPkpqq
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9727WKmWy
「最後一次警告，立即離開愛德華大道，否則我們將會使用武力！」534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4o2gf8Z4y
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nrdSkw5bo
沒有給任何理由，也沒有任何協商的餘地。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHAhxqOQ6e
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgeGabTF4e0
現在後退，就要回到灰衣人所在的街道。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRV8m8ZdnH
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRLgBvOVww
而前進，也要跟全副武裝的衛兵正面交鋒。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRl2h9PuC3
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihekEh4DCO
被逼進絕境的民眾眼神開始轉變，紛紛露出一副豁出去的神情。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnERQSVLSI
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxaTv5OKkp
一場雞蛋與高牆的戰鬥，即將就要在愛德華大道上爆發起來。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0Fe01metQ
534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBxLfIUJt3
這場暴力衝突，就是後來王國嚴禁民眾提起或哀悼的「愛德華大道襲擊事件」。534Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hu0tYDqVA
