八月十一日,大雷雨警報299Please respect copyright.PENANAxSzndHc99F
299Please respect copyright.PENANAYsb7NGUh5f
……結果失眠了一整晚。299Please respect copyright.PENANA1L01mBU0hH
299Please respect copyright.PENANAyz5QlOV8qk
從凌晨一點多開始,外頭就下起伴隨可怕閃電的豪大雨,比前陣子颱風來的時候還要兇猛。雖然沒有風不停拍打窗戶的聲響,但隆隆雷聲跟洪水一樣的雨勢讓我感覺好像整個屋子都在震動,直到快接近五點才因為太累而睡著。299Please respect copyright.PENANAbtqb4KC3Y6
299Please respect copyright.PENANAEaGH2vb5PX
早上難得睡到了快中午,弟弟也沒有吵鬧只是待在旁邊看書,但因為不敢出去找媽媽所以到我醒來前都還沒吃飯。299Please respect copyright.PENANAQisd3aWp9d
299Please respect copyright.PENANAXNSAHFs926
有的時候身為哥哥還真擔心晚真這麼單純怕生,長大會不會到處被人欺負……唉。299Please respect copyright.PENANAVyCptJ3OHt
299Please respect copyright.PENANA85abkfonpg
而在要打開房門時,我卻聽到秋英阿姨跟媽媽正在聊天的對話。音量不大聲,但就我們臥室跟餐桌的距離而言可以聽得清楚。299Please respect copyright.PENANAOiZxpJSNwy
299Please respect copyright.PENANAA3umv48WKz
「我也只是胡亂猜測……但除了權時宇外,還有誰會把我做的菜丟進池塘?」299Please respect copyright.PENANAEXArMPCD3D
299Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZlqK1Bhe1
「啊真是……怎麼會有這麼龜毛又討厭的人!我真搞不懂他到底在想什麼,從媽過世後就變得越來越陰陽怪氣!」299Please respect copyright.PENANAmyZaHI94pW
299Please respect copyright.PENANASS8eoZNZUs
「別那樣說他,終究還是妳丈夫,讓孩子聽到也不好……更何況我只是猜測而已。本來不想跟妳說的……畢竟他不就是因為我跟妳走太近才……」299Please respect copyright.PENANAIBgtZU9uHG
299Please respect copyright.PENANArIceclGsC1
「再怎麼樣也不能糟蹋別人的心血吧!我就覺得奇怪,那天早上起來怎麼突然那幾盒辣拌菜都不見了……秋英,妳怎麼不早點跟我說?還一個人去撈了一晚上……」299Please respect copyright.PENANAlbelkbsKt8
299Please respect copyright.PENANA9XCLZkayvq
「只是覺得要是因此污染那片池塘就不好了而已,妳別放心上。」299Please respect copyright.PENANA1Z2EcPEuoj
299Please respect copyright.PENANAl4JbE1L5nr
權時宇是爸爸的名字。299Please respect copyright.PENANA1hzEeGLtWO
299Please respect copyright.PENANAvu3TrRox7k
……我將聽見的片段對話憑記憶紀錄下來,反覆看了好多好多遍,總覺得有種說不上來的背脊發涼。299Please respect copyright.PENANAovyWvgMCnz
299Please respect copyright.PENANAlgxoCxL2CX
秋英阿姨到底為什麼要那麼說?故意的嗎?但又是為什麼?或者真的是爸爸……?299Please respect copyright.PENANAOlpEm0xJzA
299Please respect copyright.PENANAvS5ur8fEgq
為了釐清阿姨的話還有心裡關於「昨天那件事」的疙瘩,我躲進房間的浴室翻找手機裡攝影機的錄像。299Please respect copyright.PENANAnAeSOx8fgh
299Please respect copyright.PENANA6PuQ2pc6w6
雖然因為很多插曲的緣故導致有些時候攝影機沒電沒辦法錄影,只希望有錄到關鍵的……也就是媽媽發現那些涼拌菜不見前的那個晚上。299Please respect copyright.PENANA9b7TUHCtbH
299Please respect copyright.PENANA9fvJwilsJZ
……299Please respect copyright.PENANAGRvPwNg5iD
299Please respect copyright.PENANA0qVpC7CGE4
一點、兩點、三點、四點。攝影機傳來的錄像只到凌晨四點就結束了。299Please respect copyright.PENANARQaaEJTj9Y
299Please respect copyright.PENANA26OY9fWFFw
我戴起耳機開始看僅有的縮時影片,那時還能看見有幾個已經幾乎空掉的保鮮盒飄浮在水面上搖搖晃晃,其它大概是被水流帶往了更遠的地方吧。299Please respect copyright.PENANASk6K400ckD
299Please respect copyright.PENANAm1v2BwVR4B
大約三點十三分左右的時候,有個穿著深色雨衣還有雨鞋的人踏入了池塘中,耳機裡頓時傳來沉悶且緩慢的「噗通」一聲。299Please respect copyright.PENANAjzfUToiHAs
299Please respect copyright.PENANAMn3zBolfAW
岸邊的水不如遠處中心來得深,大人應該都能踩到底部,深度大概只到那人胸口上面一點,雖然錄像還算清楚,但因為還是有些距離;加上對方似乎穿了不只一層雨衣,很難看出身形到底是誰。299Please respect copyright.PENANAC1SWLBSLUH
299Please respect copyright.PENANAd4Ni2ATPo8
畫面裡沒有看見任何類似手電筒之類的光照,而那人卻感覺一點也不著急,站在水中好一陣後才開始緩緩貼著邊緣走動,時不時才用不知道什麼工具將那些漂浮的盒子撈回身邊,有幾個太遠的甚至直接打到了遠處。299Please respect copyright.PENANAkMX3qSXbge
299Please respect copyright.PENANAhgW2dKKUwp
……一點也不像是害怕池塘污染、急著回收保鮮盒的人會做的事。299Please respect copyright.PENANAaCrNQoVOi4
299Please respect copyright.PENANAIPguY5tDRd
而就在錄像來到接近四點時,池塘中的人似乎終於滿意了;轉身準備上岸的那刻,我清楚看見他/她本來因為拍攝視角所擋住的右手上……拿著一台和媽媽送我的禮物一模一樣的水中攝影機。299Please respect copyright.PENANANw5hhILRUG
299Please respect copyright.PENANARFe40SwBpc
定格回放了好幾次後,我逐漸承受不住錄像帶來的詭異違和感,手指顫抖著胡亂把手機按回桌面。浴室裡的每個緊閉的出水口都彷彿在逐漸溢出水珠,四周潮濕地讓我感覺快要呼吸不到空氣。299Please respect copyright.PENANADSrCGuMHAN
299Please respect copyright.PENANAU2W1IKG1VY
……那真的是秋英阿姨?她到底在幹什麼?299Please respect copyright.PENANA5DQAALA9vT
299Please respect copyright.PENANAIsrtNaGGFB
我該……告訴媽媽嗎?299Please respect copyright.PENANAcdPEl9hclQ
