499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPvprZ6pE7
葛蕾絲、MIO、李博洋、李晴煬四人在三樓等消息，赫密士一從二樓回來，葛蕾絲立刻抓住他的肩膀，問：「怎麼樣？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNDmJqDZPj
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSLfJtvWlO
「小孩被高宇維救回來了。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GZ4Lxs7z7
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6Yi6QD1ua
赫密士閉上眼睛，「但大嫂沒有。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDOiSvwUWe
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReXPHLZNPs
「……！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zb4R0vCU4
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbJobJKaA3
葛蕾絲瞪大眼睛，MIO的手鞠掉到地上，李晴煬低下頭，李博洋整個人跪到地上、自責地捶著地板。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbguRjhqot
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CwJa4iLlV
「可惡……！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Jod9Qb0vl
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGLcmdIMi6
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdA9ypdHrj
如果他再強一點。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL24UBIumUi
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKWkIJnQl0
如果他的白色空間，沒有被紅鶴搶走。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjggdXAx8lj
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPUMh06fCk
他應該可以保護雪檸……他應該要保護雪檸的。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvXC4nH74r

499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvid87aCsj
「博洋……」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrYHF7cC9J
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjl9Ibw3Rhe
MIO走上前、正想安慰李博洋，葛蕾絲卻衝上來、一拳打在MIO的肚子上──499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalJ6bavM0n
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86xVSFNJsS
「磅！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKjz0WM485
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWREf41uzI1
MIO整個人飛出去、撞到一邊的牆壁。所有人都嚇一跳，李晴煬從後面抓住葛蕾絲，驚恐問：「葛蕾絲姊，妳幹嘛！？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoWbS6quzP
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WgiMjSmnd
葛蕾絲把眼淚擦掉，「還不承認嗎？」並用非常恐怖的眼神，瞪著倒在地上的MIO，「大嫂被妳害死了，妳滿意了沒！？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWZVD3CfId
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCskOG80TQ3
葛蕾絲的話讓所有人瞪大眼睛，尤其是李博洋，他不敢相信地問葛蕾絲：「姊，妳這話什麼意思？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqm0sIJgpJd
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWyihknnHA
「我老早就覺得奇怪，我怎麼可能用這麼短的時間復活，一定是妳跟什麼人進行了交換！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7PWImfkVC
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnjg4XgE93
葛蕾絲指著MIO，「是尼可吧！為了讓我立刻復活，代價是另一條懷特的命，我沒說錯吧！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyndbFuei0u
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5ii0mtJZd
MIO沒有否認。唯一還保持冷靜的赫密士走上前，「原來如此。」兩手插到口袋，「一命換一命的概念嗎？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIH6dXQ94aw
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqXQJ442M1
「尼可一定以為，另一條懷特的命是哥哥，但他沒想到，雪檸肚子裡的孩子也是懷特！」葛蕾絲握緊拳頭，「妳原本要拿檸檬的命『交換』。要不是宇維少爺介入，今天死的就不是雪檸，而是檸檬！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjf3y5wxakc
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8FakWqtTO
「……要拿誰的命換，不是MIO能決定的。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡro1xFf8UFb
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3qjisEQ1a
MIO吃力地說。葛蕾絲這一拳非常痛，她必須摀著肚子，才能坐起來。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07xkqghOVJ
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsHIFWmQj9
「所有的規則、運作，都不是MIO控制，MIO只是實現尼可的願望。」MIO也瞪著葛蕾絲，大聲地說：「MIO並沒有錯！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInV2ZDqayf
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNX3cxUOi0
「如果妳有作為神與畜的自覺，」葛蕾絲大吼：「這種可能會殺死成員的『交換』，妳必須拒絕他！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfLtxH4UEq
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVq7NNloHu
「MIO就是MIO，MIO只是在實行MIO的意義！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BzZk5u54D
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUPk8FbXWf
MIO站起來，反問葛蕾絲：「妳為什麼不問尼可？他作為神與畜，為什麼還要和MIO作這種『交換』？妳不怪自己的兒子，把錯都推到MIO身上，公私不分又是誰？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeTcZ5aVAp
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeO4xsM10Dm
「連我都能猜到的事，妳以為我哥會不知道？他自會裁定，哪怕……哪怕哥哥要把尼可殺了，我也不能說什麼。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7QiQnrisS
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91YxuIjiER
葛蕾絲說得心很痛，她警告MIO：「妳做好心理準備，如果哥哥連尼可都殺了，他也不會放過妳！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3ZLuRFDq4
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPvfzvTA4M
「MIO不怕死。」MIO瞇起眼睛，「打從遇到博洋的那天，MIO就不在乎自己的生死。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BpUhoWwyE
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnmrEHCHSD
葛蕾絲要繼續說，卻被赫密士從後面踹了後膝蓋，害她用非常不帥的姿勢跌到地上。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcFUEP09Cr
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCivmAeygzP
「都什麼時候了還在吵架妳們煩不煩啊？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oT5p2aHtq
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEppaBTYmgL
赫密士說，視線由上而下，叫她的名字：「MIO。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQi3bzvvadm
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5ZmTG7W3R
「……？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVsdVT7PTR
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRQF8yVuON
「我從以前就無法信任妳妳知道為什麼嗎？」赫密士冷冷地說：「因為妳是NAGI的女兒。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwY29ZhfaH
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTBVInTQFg
「媽媽？」聽到關鍵字的MIO蹙起眉頭，「跟媽媽有什麼關係？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKTX9uE5Qj
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMXbi8g4sp
「妳果然什麼都不知道。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3100w0mEg

499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbXYEXX7vU

赫密士看著MIO。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlUa7VJ59z
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxzpCryzcl
「儘管如此，妳和妳母親非常相似。不服從規矩、搞不清楚狀況、亂用水果塔，甚至，妳蒐集有關強暴的新聞，都是受到妳母親影響，因為她就是在那樣的狀況下，把女兒生下來的。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC03eFmpiM6
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrVedOUcZV
赫密士突然轉頭，問李晴煬：「你說她的『聲音』是什麼？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycV9hlXB3a
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtgEdGowIx
「啊？」太突然了，李晴煬沒反應過來。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh0OSGSXx6
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BbzHlyzCx
「你不是能聽到大家害怕的聲音嗎？」赫密士額頭爆青筋，「MIO的是什麼？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRGMpC9yx7
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYb4wy3uae
李晴煬終於反應過來。他在心裡罵赫密士，講得不清不楚，要人怎麼立刻回答？499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Kg7acbDfo
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKeytmhZF8
「鈴鐺。」李晴煬告訴赫密士：「『叮鈴鈴』的鈴鐺聲。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQA05t2y9xz
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEjWEGHkzy
「鈴……鐺？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeslvmGrSJ
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx3aza07Ib
MIO眨眼，連她自己也不知道為什麼；另一邊的赫密士卻發笑，彎腰，與MIO平視。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgcAoMmBP2
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXw5rfBFXA
「妳說妳不怕死，是嗎？那我告訴妳一件比死更可怕的事。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡId7uNESJah
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNqwztlOM8
赫密士伸出一根手指，點在MIO的額頭上。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kFayU0Y50
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLn6eeMoeD3
「妳母親，是被人殺死的。」赫密士微笑，「妳還記得嗎？被身上戴鈴鐺的人，打到半死不活。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtpV3Im5Sf
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9DVoAw8mc
「……！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5WY2Zxzlq
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uN0YeLc7w
MIO好像想起了什麼。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJtQd4wf1m
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPE7NHJ3uf
黑色的人闖入家中，媽媽把她關在浴室。隔著一道門，媽媽的叫聲、鈴鐺的震動聲、骨頭的斷裂聲……媽媽的血從門縫流進來。她害怕地躲在牆角，直到──499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XCeRVctRk
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYyS3VCJhE
「再告訴妳一件事。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRayHH56FD
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsYhNRpTuS
赫密士走到MIO後面，硬是把她的頭，轉向李博洋與李晴煬兩兄弟。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIh1AhMiPK
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFW6OZbnry
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDd2bHSKL4g
「那個戴鈴鐺的人，就是李仲翔。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrMN9wxQ00
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Mor6OJZOv
「為什麼讓博洋當妳的嚮導──」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWONKE4CVbv
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYTZFqxNIU
「因為高宇維不想讓妳報仇，就是這麼簡單。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgebv3CIZvk
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPIvhvKluA
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWq3O0JM6qv
「……。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkdtWFAzIi
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsPKg6dvDI
MIO空洞的眼睛凝視著李博洋。她沒有哭，也沒有鬧，持續這樣的狀態十秒，才低下頭、一個人跑離客廳。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPkzSv6p4g
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTDfFivagV
「喂，赫密士！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhV1lI14Dxs
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXnPY0NX5f
MIO一離開，李晴煬立刻問，口氣很不高興，「你沒事提這幹嘛？刺激MIO造反嗎？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevnrsXX7d7
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPodSvaYNMj
「你太小看她對李博洋的愛了。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnMVMisJ5e
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNUClh1umH
赫密士恢復平常的語速，「造反倒不至於我只是要她享受這份煎熬畢竟她真的做錯了事。」他吸了一口菸，「而且你不是讀心術達人嗎如果她想造反你一定事先就會知道。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsnjuy5MdR
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpS0F9QTnt7
「本大爺又不能隨便拿耳機！」李晴煬反駁。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Sn6U2OevS
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQvfekm7UL
「放心經過雪檸這件事高宇維遲早會允許你拿。」赫密士說：「我們人越來越多為了確保上下一條心一定會需要一個糾察隊那個人肯定就是你了啊啊竟然要被你這種人竊聽想想也真不爽。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxsgQPBsR6
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vd3JaTNOb
李晴煬不知道該回應什麼。監聽自己人，如果是高宇維希望的，他當然會毫不猶豫去做，只是難免覺得諷刺。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUovroSHiY
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUvB6lD7Su
他看向哥哥。李博洋的臉色很差，雪檸的死訊已經讓他很難過，赫密士又來這招、挑撥他和MIO的關係。李晴煬第一次覺得哥哥可憐，他走上前，拍了拍哥哥的肩膀。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5gAjhqjMN
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3tnt0y5Bb
「……抱歉，弟弟，我有點累。」李博洋低頭，「我先回房間了。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaFDgBO3Qe
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuapeefyAlr
「你那鬼房間最好能休息。」李晴煬乾脆地說：「去我房間吧，本大爺帶你過去。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggvazxwiVv
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaU6YHD531j
「謝謝……」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV69wYkTQbr
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8LbEcq9gG
李博洋真的累了。簡單和大家說過晚安，李晴煬便帶李博洋離開。也在這時，赫密士告訴葛蕾絲：「妳也去休息吧。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwCrfVbpbx
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsbTUZi3kk
「我要等尼可。」葛蕾絲頓了頓，「……如果他還活著。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRP3GDzvgZz
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKUnhR5liJ
「那我先下去了。」赫密士呿了一聲，「有個白痴為了救小孩把自己的手弄斷我得去看看。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnIfokJSFa
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbHa0XPp03
說完，赫密士離開。背影雖然很不情願，但那股「這是我的責任」的使命感，讓葛蕾絲很是欣慰。相較之下，他兒子真是太不成熟了。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvNcM3u77C
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlBRHWJ3en
雪檸的死，帶給里奧很大的打擊；加上那個嬰兒，要是傳到十大家族耳裡，肯定會變成各方野心家的目標。未來的神與畜，必須一邊確保檸檬的安全，一邊平定反高派的勢力，還要提防紅鶴……他們需要優秀的成員加入。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAltUfE2K5k
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuU36YKVyQO
所以，里奧應該不會殺死尼可拉斯……吧？499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7gV4wXByk
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVCUhU5A14
葛蕾絲坐在沙發，雙手合十，只能在心裡祈禱了。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUBhj19Rby

檸檬已經睡著了。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpIdYgWwn7
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbt9UHDrl1
嬰兒真的好小、好脆弱。抱著手中的小生命，尼可拉斯終於意識到，自己做了多麼殘忍的事。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkx0Unsuj9
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFFM9Zs8zu
雪檸已經被安置在冰櫃，里奧還在醫務室外。汗從尼可拉斯的額頭流下來──他知道，這是他的罪、他的報應，他遲早得去面對。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBZLBq4BFQ
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1U3YxZHy6C
所以他走過去。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabDwfthjuY

里奧沒有說話，默默接過檸檬、凝視她的臉。空氣凝重得像冰塊，尼可拉斯覺得自己快要窒息。他想打破沉默，然而，才剛開口，里奧那雙琉璃色的眼睛瞥了過來，嚇得他當場閉嘴、屏住呼吸。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVXF5xwcWY

「對不起……我知道你沒有理由原諒我，可是……對不起……！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerc29ImYgg

一聲小小的呻吟突然傳來。里奧低頭，似是感覺到爸爸的視線，檸檬竟然醒過來，一雙漂亮的琉璃色緩緩睜開，清澈的眼睛與里奧四目相接。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5i2CHPbHNe

499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdKSlV76Gb
再拒絕就不像話了。尼可拉斯乖乖從地上起來、坐到里奧旁邊。正當他不知道該說什麼時，里奧突然問：「小孩應該幾號出生？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMWLbtaNAx

499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeepnMdzSZs
「李博洋說的沒錯，我一直用媽媽的死，來合理化自己的不幸。以為用受害者的立場，就能把錯都推給別人、從來不檢討自己；李晴煬都走出來了，相較之下，我真的很差勁。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOr4ETWeUg7
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIw7JfUTer
「所以希望葛蕾絲回來？」里奧問。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0j7BDmlsz
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRYnahiYAe
「沒錯，還有……」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGGN3RSNLN
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBzRoL8Qah
尼可拉斯的表情很掙扎，最後，還是決定說出來──499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlO5mJ1oGj
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpG4Lj8B3k
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdsnraQsBQ
「我發現，自己喜歡的是男生。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO8vn4zI0H
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBR39M2oIo
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡct3ZioN7fB
「……！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEabs5OMtM
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BZYDQ1FiB
看尼可拉斯的表情就知道，他真的鼓起很大的勇氣、才敢說出這件事。里奧承認他嚇到了。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbmfdPsq1p
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9EYOjX3Yd
「我最近常夢到奇怪的夢，那讓我很……害怕。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkG06rDz2Q
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvBih3AFnS
尼可拉斯的聲音在抖。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFWN4EeD2Y
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fUSeONmoK
「我不知道自己怎麼了……感覺身體不是自己的。明明醫學上是很正常的現象，但我當下真的……不知所措，覺得自己很不正常、很恐怖……！」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlivWTHfzjR
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmE5WRdfvN
第一個告訴的人竟然是里奧。尼可拉斯又哭了。他摀著口鼻，努力不發出哭聲；另一方面，里奧終於理解，為什麼尼可拉斯無論如何，都希望葛蕾絲回來。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9tpleQFkm
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkVv2tqMjP
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckZ5khdt32
尼可拉斯也是孩子。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfMsQINieT
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jLU1Yn092
雖然外表、知識超齡，但他只有十七歲。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksGCCXZaMq
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteOqRGAyNl
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq95I5JutAo
里奧回想：自己十七歲時，身邊有什麼人？樂觀開朗的妹妹，令人尊敬的父親；再隔一年，他認識了高宇維，兩人從此形影不離。年輕的里奧並不孤獨，不知寂寞為何物；反觀尼可拉斯，葛蕾絲死後，他始終只有自己。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvu0yPxn3KJ
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8xkWU0XZK
「……。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2NuuJDqXL
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfOuGZeQll
里奧把手放到尼可拉斯頭上。那一瞬間，尼可拉斯忍不住，像個孩子一樣大哭起來。里奧．懷特也是他的家人──尼可拉斯終於在心裡，承認這一點。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhp8yexHzPw
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GmbSsgw2t
「啊。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDABNNbndw
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuJ9W6jJ5X
突然，檸檬叫了一聲，里奧和尼可拉斯都嚇一跳。循著視線，她正在看尼可拉斯，好像在叫他不要哭；尼可拉斯的眼淚，確實也嚇到縮回去。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXZm3QHsSu
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPuVHeYBZE
「……我一直以為睫毛影是商人的噱頭，沒想到是真的。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCpPYwNVas
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJPLtsN5zZ
尼可拉斯看著檸檬的眼睛，忍不住讚嘆：「她好漂亮。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTB37hSOoyt
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuPLSTzhy3
「像媽媽。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszAQMfXtiL
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfs9vYO2r8
里奧用手指逗了逗檸檬。爸爸沒表情，女兒也沒表情，尼可拉斯不知道怎麼形容，那畫面很怪異。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqveZEBTdXM
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqVqPGclRA
「……尼可。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTjUHiEk6z
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wgMBWfwvm
里奧突然抬頭，跟尼可拉斯說：「我不在，安琪都交給你。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSySj5vYmbS
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumMY2S5RZc
「咦？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYbsUklgxQ
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8yy6R4O5r
「葛蕾絲回來，就會跟我行動，我和她會常常不在。你是醫生，宇維不會派太多外出任務，交給你最合適。」里奧說。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59VNhCalUR
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa45Lti62K
「不，這不對吧？我最不適合照顧她，畢竟我……！」尼可拉斯看著檸檬，「我不配當她的哥哥，她應該要恨我。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPF0UQQL6WR
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wOdLPwzmn
里奧明白，但他告訴尼可拉斯：「你要她恨你，我不介意，這跟照顧她不衝突，你是哥哥。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsB4D8ZQJF9
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU9zQqNkMx
「……。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPu7w9qZiji
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVwqfoi1Ej
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uSFYbLJD0
「討厭的哥哥」。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSj7ZGIRowV
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPbrGWnEnG
尼可拉斯腦中，閃過這個身分。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNBTGiBmvW
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9YnIrdYo8
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQXFtTnDk3
「……我明白了。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcwZVPYcQu
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpCbkO4lOZ
尼可拉斯擦掉眼淚、擦掉淚痕，跟里奧保證：499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fU6sOQ4Kf
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJi3IX8Rlz
「我會負責教她，讓她變成最出色的人……要是遇到李晴煬那種渣男，包準檸檬能在三秒內，把他打成太監。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvniEQuQA8x
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YYkFw9vlD
聽到尼可拉斯罵人，里奧知道他的情緒大致平復。他總算解開和尼可拉斯的心結，今後的尼可拉斯也不再拘泥過往。為了雪檸，為了檸檬，為了懷特……他這輩子將奉獻給神與畜。他已經長大，也將帶著這份罪惡感，活下去。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8dWkPgUCG
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLiQtiuJOY
「對了。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDpuuKxnVI
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIhLquu9AB
尼可拉斯想到什麼，尷尬地問：「我以後，要叫你舅舅嗎？」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrRFi0fUz8
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHdpQWYbx4
難以言喻的怪異感，里奧整個雞皮疙瘩都起來。他搖頭，「不接受，太老了。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTX1IRmVp7
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmcGhjayF1
你確實活了很久啊。尼可拉斯心想。要不是高宇維暫停他的時間，現在的里奧應該是具骷髏。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjlPEFqmOQ
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNeEXX5Rgx
不過，尼可拉斯也不叫雪檸「舅媽」，是叫大嫂；那麼，對里奧如果不用那個稱呼，對雪檸太不公平了。499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiUSrWGbuS
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPYTrdMO9z
「以後，還能像這樣聊天嗎？」尼可拉斯終於說出那四個字：「里奧大哥。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLE9rdQGLTf
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX4TCDsDpq
「隨時歡迎。」499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXD6UEFJKr3
499Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01ZmVNI4lA
說完，里奧低頭，發現檸檬又睡著了。她睡得很熟，似乎，幫忙解決爸爸和哥哥的問題，真的很累。
