2161年2月19日,中午十二點,商業中心B區429Please respect copyright.PENANAkY3h5Q9jyn
429Please respect copyright.PENANA131qF0db3w
429Please respect copyright.PENANAiXnImYsgtz
仙境大樓附近的小巷,有一間名為「稻荷食堂」的小店,只有老闆──敦子奶奶一個人經營。敦子奶奶高齡七十,食堂的座位很少,客人多是常客。這家店還有一個特色:只有偶數日營業。429Please respect copyright.PENANAhv6nfEvBm9
429Please respect copyright.PENANAay54pNOEmL
「打擾了。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAU6HhLl1s4i
429Please respect copyright.PENANAIA8K4ojfCi
今天是十九號,謝綠和江云格走進沒有營業的食堂,在廚房忙碌的敦子奶奶看見兩人,熱情地招呼他們。429Please respect copyright.PENANA2RiC5S6u9Y
429Please respect copyright.PENANAfFUhb5TbHE
「小貓咪和小綠也來了啊,歡迎歡迎。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAsa0nU5U6A4
429Please respect copyright.PENANAIRRU4mjPo9
敦子奶奶一說,四人座的座位傳來聲音──MIO開心地和兩人揮手、大喊:「小綠、格格!這邊這邊!」429Please respect copyright.PENANA3IuBJE5lnF
429Please respect copyright.PENANAv7ciJ5fRKz
「敦子奶奶,好久不見。」謝綠把外套掛在門口的衣架,「身體還好嗎?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAYK9tLETFm2
429Please respect copyright.PENANAviq3ig0OPP
「托宇維少爺的福,非常健康。」敦子奶奶問謝綠:「一樣煎餃嗎?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAgKLhIk6Mq2
429Please respect copyright.PENANACHjrY3ri3o
「是的,再麻煩您。」謝綠問江云格:「格格,你要吃什麼?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAJC1pZ7BuJg
429Please respect copyright.PENANAWRSC0MPV85
「我也老樣子。」江云格摘下墨鏡,露出貓一般的眼睛。429Please respect copyright.PENANAjA3vdXv62V
429Please respect copyright.PENANAonuu95NFMU
「烤鯖魚是吧,我知道了。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAjdWCCPo37j
429Please respect copyright.PENANAfZ1ikJTMra
說完,敦子奶奶繼續手邊的工作。謝綠和江云格來到MIO的座位,加上李博洋,四人就這麼坐在一塊兒。429Please respect copyright.PENANA51DEIWBuO4
429Please respect copyright.PENANAlvrk0jfNDE
「什麼風把你們吹來了?」李博洋已經吃完他的漢堡肉,悠哉地喝著熱呼呼的麥茶。429Please respect copyright.PENANAQq4kkEOcZk
429Please respect copyright.PENANAIFbk0hzXtr
「有事情問你。」謝綠說:「發現你們沒在房間,今天又是單數日,猜你們一定在敦子奶奶這。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAWyALOfn2Ys
429Please respect copyright.PENANAPU1vLDgNGa
「誰叫MIO喜歡敦子奶奶的咖哩飯。」李博洋撐頭,「從Knight退休後,敦子奶奶為了報答宇維少爺的恩情,在仙境大樓附近開店,就像神與畜的員工餐廳,只有偶數日才開放給外人。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAIClQCvcePF
429Please respect copyright.PENANAJf2afoLdVx
「如果有外人,我們就不方便商量事情。」江云格微笑,「重點是,敦子奶奶的料理非常好吃,有種家的味道,這樣的店在B區很少見。」429Please respect copyright.PENANA2Kqe2sYXfD
429Please respect copyright.PENANAStlwBTAMxZ
三人聊著天,MIO高舉手中的湯匙,對廚房的敦子奶奶大喊:「敦子,MIO吃完了!還要一盤咖哩!」429Please respect copyright.PENANAnxwy3G0mQB
429Please respect copyright.PENANA3QF5JxsROx
「是是,等我一下喔。」429Please respect copyright.PENANA3BQKaLPDac
429Please respect copyright.PENANAjb9bFsWasL
廚房傳來食物的香味。聽見MIO沒有稱呼「敦子奶奶」,謝綠才意識到:「對耶,論年紀,敦子奶奶比MIO小。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAUnaVQ9EFK9
429Please respect copyright.PENANA4fc6VPPBKZ
「畢竟第一代水果塔那個時代,『彌亞』就存在了。」李博洋說,幫MIO收拾空盤,也拿起架上的茶壺,替自己和另外三人倒了麥茶。429Please respect copyright.PENANAFhiAyrCDEl
429Please respect copyright.PENANAW2oKNsNs4k
「你們想問什麼?」將裝好茶的杯子遞給他們,李博洋開口:「跟我弟弟有關?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAdN5wY2DOIc
429Please respect copyright.PENANA8lArzTBxoF
謝綠說了聲謝謝,「不,是李仲翔。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAb4ieUPvr9W
429Please respect copyright.PENANAXUcKqQlCT6
「有差嗎?」李博洋還是那張笑臉,「爺爺就在他體內。」429Please respect copyright.PENANA4bJVJzImae
429Please respect copyright.PENANAtM1OMs1Swz
「你早就知道了?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAHS94HuMzEx
429Please respect copyright.PENANAtR1DXYt6RA
「四年前,我就知道了。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAfs3GHYfiRT
429Please respect copyright.PENANA9AXipgeLuv
李博洋將四年前,自己差點被李仲翔吞噬、為什麼和MIO變成現在的關係、及高宇維想讓李仲翔回來的計畫,全部告訴他們兩人。謝綠和江云格愣在原地,直到敦子奶奶送來煎餃和烤鯖魚,兩人才回神。429Please respect copyright.PENANAtV3VesDDOp
429Please respect copyright.PENANA98kGka11tB
「所以……」謝綠在腦中整理李博洋的話,「李仲翔一旦回來,李晴煬就會死,這是宇維少爺希望的?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAatnRjuECag
429Please respect copyright.PENANAAuF94TZLyd
「沒錯。」李博洋回答,反應冷淡。429Please respect copyright.PENANAsb9D9teuKz
429Please respect copyright.PENANAilxlJFd2D0
「你為什麼這麼冷靜?」謝綠說:「你可是他哥哥。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAsqv33swT7E
429Please respect copyright.PENANAOTVJtuPSOA
「我也是神與畜。」429Please respect copyright.PENANA7Q86XceWCI
429Please respect copyright.PENANA4PPb37hKoZ
李博洋紅色的眼裡沒有情緒。他告訴謝綠:「我不是沒掙扎過,也不是沒為此哭過,但這是我的選擇,僅此而已。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAilhFnS9DbZ
429Please respect copyright.PENANAhsRwAfUlbG
謝綠不知道怎麼回應。她拿起筷子,在小碟子倒入敦子奶奶特製的餃子醬汁,默默吃午餐,不發一語。429Please respect copyright.PENANA1mTt9aypic
429Please respect copyright.PENANARE7MaRO5Sj
429Please respect copyright.PENANAlEW2cOH5SQ
李晴煬會死。429Please respect copyright.PENANAwnQ7ABl6pX
429Please respect copyright.PENANAr0ZuVh8Hu5
她想過各種可能,就是沒想過,他們的關係會用這種方式畫下句點。429Please respect copyright.PENANAZb6fH4rcWh
429Please respect copyright.PENANAFcZ0iClghB
429Please respect copyright.PENANALeP2UhsN3K
「其他人知道嗎?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAeneOWGEoD3
429Please respect copyright.PENANAC7R3a6MrVc
江云格的反應冷靜許多,一邊把鯖魚的刺挑出來,技術超好。429Please respect copyright.PENANAAmNerafUuA
429Please respect copyright.PENANAlvjyEDBikz
「里奧大哥、葛蕾絲姊、赫密士,三位元老和宇維少爺同一陣線。」李博洋一個個細數,「我、MIO、尼可、派翠克,我們四人早就知道,都選擇不插手。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAWd4RMqhz8w
429Please respect copyright.PENANAl7Iwc8Fr7d
「旁觀就是共犯。」429Please respect copyright.PENANA6cVXLk1IPY
429Please respect copyright.PENANAGe2GK4trNy
「沒錯。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAkr63v73qFf
429Please respect copyright.PENANAKvuTiR0yvj
李博洋喜歡江云格這句話。他們都不想反抗高宇維、放棄神與畜的身分,他們確實是共犯。429Please respect copyright.PENANAw0mPYrStFk
429Please respect copyright.PENANAgE8lF4akTJ
「李晴煬呢?」江云格問:「有人告訴他嗎?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAID2phdSGd5
429Please respect copyright.PENANAYaRieC3bHK
「他自己會想到。」李博洋補了句:「何況今天發生那種事。」429Please respect copyright.PENANA04Tm2NqjBn
429Please respect copyright.PENANAsrEgpDEqh6
這下子,也能解釋李晴煬為什麼是賴梓綾的嚮導。小約翰勢必影響李仲翔,一切都是高宇維的計畫。429Please respect copyright.PENANAGxb9afJNJL
429Please respect copyright.PENANAlaasPIL3JO
「什麼都不知道的只有檸檬。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAEbQmaoblfs
429Please respect copyright.PENANA6kw2tgFFmZ
李博洋說,MIO的第二盤咖哩飯來了。提醒MIO很燙、不要吃太快後,李博洋切回剛才的話題。429Please respect copyright.PENANAzuieeIfjwT
429Please respect copyright.PENANAflJ2JOU3PT
「一旦知道,就無法回到不知道的那個時候。」李博洋看著江云格和謝綠,「你們打算怎麼做?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAoW3VXue2OE
429Please respect copyright.PENANApEs3KochXf
江云格沒有回答,看向沉默的謝綠。她吃完美味的煎餃、放下筷子,拿起沒那麼燙的茶杯,喝了一口麥茶。429Please respect copyright.PENANA7qRZG6UVYG
429Please respect copyright.PENANA5OQUXix6J9
「我絕對,不會回去謝氏。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAnnJKXntYpC
429Please respect copyright.PENANAUpjkeirK9A
謝綠終於開口,綠色的眼睛告訴李博洋:「那個地方,會讓我覺得自己很髒,我死也不會回去。」429Please respect copyright.PENANACkTj0kgqMf
429Please respect copyright.PENANAAADWmiuHHq
「骯髒的人不管去哪,都會是髒的。妳明知道這點,還是決定逃避嗎?」李博洋問。429Please respect copyright.PENANAMZR5oEdSqO
429Please respect copyright.PENANAmDwllWziN4
「是的。」謝綠竟然微笑,「至少,跟你們這群更髒的人在一起,我還能騙自己是乾淨的。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAcEKG4wg0On
429Please respect copyright.PENANAbnBRhq6b9I
李博洋哈哈大笑。他喜歡看謝綠假裝正派,然後撕掉面具、露出真面目的那一瞬間,真的非常有趣。429Please respect copyright.PENANA9A04zbKSOE
429Please respect copyright.PENANAMfvTx5SAWL
「云格呢?」李博洋擦掉笑出來的口水,「你的選擇是?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAcdKO8RV9ny
429Please respect copyright.PENANAuku4bhbuoi
「我也沒有地方去。」江云格聳肩,「我只能待在這裡。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAkwOrQttBc0
429Please respect copyright.PENANABqUMe4Yypn
「我們大家都一樣,除了尼可。」李博洋說:「他爸是書蟲。宇維少爺基於往日情誼,就算尼可跟他作對,宇維少爺也不會怎樣。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAHHrio5UqYc
429Please respect copyright.PENANAIAjeGrD3bA
「我也很意外他會選擇這裡。」謝綠想了想,「不過,尼可和李晴煬稱不上好。比起自己的父親,尼可更傾向懷特這一邊。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAL8JnRLOMka
429Please respect copyright.PENANADucFLMl1xI
「還有派翠克。」江云格點出:「他不會放派翠克一個人在這。」429Please respect copyright.PENANA6CQd4A0la5
429Please respect copyright.PENANAiDldZ6yhdO
雖這麼說,但他們四人沒想到:看起來沒立場的尼可拉斯,早就私下和白絃接觸,並和羅笙做了交易。429Please respect copyright.PENANAvUv5eym893
429Please respect copyright.PENANAIigdKmm4MK
「不過,我選擇旁觀,不表示我贊成李晴煬死。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAkG2KisbIYS
429Please respect copyright.PENANAxe38Gh7YeH
謝綠突然這麼說,江云格嚇了一跳。429Please respect copyright.PENANAMbx6nQLSWQ
429Please respect copyright.PENANANuQmiUqnPO
「宇維少爺想讓李仲翔回來,我們無法反抗。」謝綠語氣堅定,「我們只要讓計劃失敗,李晴煬就不會死。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAd6XFj2rvPU
429Please respect copyright.PENANAnMS3aZEv9W
「小綠……!」429Please respect copyright.PENANAokcqDazG7X
429Please respect copyright.PENANAnkeAGcjKPF
江云格很慌張,他不認為這些話適合在李博洋面前說,但看謝綠的眼神,她就是要說給李博洋聽。429Please respect copyright.PENANA3sTxXpvR1i
429Please respect copyright.PENANAUV0W4lNkdU
「你也是這麼想的吧?李博洋。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAp4YCPDAFrG
429Please respect copyright.PENANAqxEr9z4q8k
李博洋沉默三秒,推了推眼鏡。429Please respect copyright.PENANAfOCW4CgP8J
429Please respect copyright.PENANARIQ62ReeR5
「如果我說不是呢?」李博洋瞇起眼睛,「妳不怕我把這番話,上報給宇維少爺?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAp5X0hevPMN
429Please respect copyright.PENANAj4IfZH5TTI
「如果不是,現在就立刻否認,但別忘了:你是李晴煬的哥哥,你是神與畜──」謝綠沒有逃避他的視線,「同時,你也是出家人。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAE8Ma9gEivJ
429Please respect copyright.PENANAg1A7C7lF2D
「……。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAGTIeVOtXuX
429Please respect copyright.PENANASspCC4g6Yi
「『出家人不打誑語。』」謝綠說:「你跟我一樣骯髒,但你唯一的優點是誠實,絕對不會說謊。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAr874kQZcWQ
429Please respect copyright.PENANA9mIjiYRQy9
「……。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAKWSMqmpVoS
429Please respect copyright.PENANAlC99pCde72
429Please respect copyright.PENANAE2TDp9qjIx
沒錯。429Please respect copyright.PENANAwinJNaBtlt
429Please respect copyright.PENANAyY7bs7jmpf
他不會說謊。429Please respect copyright.PENANAWwM5iau1ZG
429Please respect copyright.PENANAK2NVJZh0gi
不管是對他人,或是對自己。429Please respect copyright.PENANA02IElwwRvU
429Please respect copyright.PENANAqsc4f4lUmS
429Please respect copyright.PENANAwkyOsnZBfI
「博洋,被發現了。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAB45AwzG7FF
429Please respect copyright.PENANAqo1kI4AL0E
一直在吃東西、沒說話的MIO開口:「雖然割捨掉晴煬、一切以宇維少爺優先,但讓李仲翔回來的計畫,成功率不是百分之百。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAqIoYG51COe
429Please respect copyright.PENANAGrjzPso0Jo
李博洋冷笑,然後伸懶腰、發出奇怪的呻吟聲,癱軟在椅子上。429Please respect copyright.PENANAkknZv7qIty
429Please respect copyright.PENANAIA8jO9IHZw
「不愧是謝氏的饕餮。」李博洋看著謝綠,「直覺和野獸一樣敏銳,討厭死了。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAeSJUQqadi1
429Please respect copyright.PENANAeWj90WpBr5
「不要用那個東西稱呼我,我有名字。」謝綠警告。429Please respect copyright.PENANAlyO9qGSkCD
429Please respect copyright.PENANAO2rJEZLSu7
「是是,謝綠姑娘。」429Please respect copyright.PENANASsXvnbFXtT
429Please respect copyright.PENANANfRDUsaL5Q
李博洋把手放到桌子,MIO立刻把自己的味噌湯遞給他。他們知道對方在想什麼、想做什麼,已經不需要言語。429Please respect copyright.PENANAanQbgm36cB
429Please respect copyright.PENANATDwRieAy4n
「妳是認真的嗎?」李博洋問:「江云格也這麼想?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAF5IqJX6jMV
429Please respect copyright.PENANAJSabLvjsxl
「我剛也在思考。」江云格笑了笑,「『只要讓宇維少爺失敗就好』,小綠比我早一步說出來,嚇了我一跳。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAhUR1Ep52Li
429Please respect copyright.PENANAR8xOygu2kq
MIO眨眼,「小綠比格格更像動物!」429Please respect copyright.PENANA77h70ersPh
429Please respect copyright.PENANAnooTNtMzBX
「我只是比較直接,MIO,妳這樣說太傷人了。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAdTQ8Uh8LnQ
429Please respect copyright.PENANAGpr0fXrgda
埋怨歸埋怨,但謝綠也鬆了口氣。MIO和李博洋不是敵人,這是好事。429Please respect copyright.PENANAwDlU7tM76E
429Please respect copyright.PENANAEwxhhE2YFq
「博洋,MIO剛說成功機率不是百分之百,那是什麼意思?」謝綠問。429Please respect copyright.PENANADkK5HYkWTu
429Please respect copyright.PENANAub1l3srQMh
「你們自己看。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAODEFq3rBlk
429Please respect copyright.PENANAB93Lvx4qSf
說完,李博洋從白色空間拿出一個東西。江云格微愣,「筆記本?」429Please respect copyright.PENANArS5nTpc99F
429Please respect copyright.PENANAopGfLOU8hn
「是,但不是普通的筆記本。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAcvuDpHxoD8
429Please respect copyright.PENANAbAte72pgWK
李博洋把它放到桌上,封面的白字吸引了他們的目光,謝綠和江云格倒抽一口氣。429Please respect copyright.PENANAEh6pTRC5Wg
429Please respect copyright.PENANAYZBL5R8edJ
429Please respect copyright.PENANAp0pehtBeDh
白色仲夏,睡在書上,瘋的貓429Please respect copyright.PENANADZHltpENHN
429Please respect copyright.PENANAwmNavC7q5Z
429Please respect copyright.PENANATQkjjT3cxI
「這其實是弟弟的,我一直沒還他,他自己似乎也忘了。」李博洋說。429Please respect copyright.PENANAI6VAXlreQO
429Please respect copyright.PENANAIDfPmZHQg5
「李晴煬怎麼會有這個?」謝綠問。429Please respect copyright.PENANAuhdk7TT2PK
429Please respect copyright.PENANAxmrPmN2On5
「十一塔。」李博洋指著筆記本的側面,「看到密碼鎖了嗎?我弟弟不知道密碼,打不開,不知道裡面寫什麼。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAcafextul7l
429Please respect copyright.PENANArW9ll3gzUG
「你的意思是,」江云格看向李博洋,「你把密碼解開了?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAvnutRQF69N
429Please respect copyright.PENANAStxeqO6R7b
「沒錯,我玩了四年的排列組合,密碼是1999。」李博洋說。429Please respect copyright.PENANAeuPu0tFyJ6
429Please respect copyright.PENANAdOKyFzb6de
「為什麼是這數字?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAOS9d0jECCL
429Please respect copyright.PENANAmo0OJ1FxIj
「『九二一大地震』。」李博洋解答:「真正的夏悠,在西元1999年的那場災難中死去,也是這一切的起源。如果沒有那場地震,紅心皇后不會研發水果塔,今天的故事都不會發生,你我也不會存在於此。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAmP3osLyQ3w
429Please respect copyright.PENANA4SyWHljfNc
李博洋轉動數字、解開密碼鎖,將筆記本傳給謝綠和江云格。兩人一頁一頁閱讀,越是翻到後面,謝綠和江云格的眼睛越睜越大。429Please respect copyright.PENANAFe2C24AsP3
429Please respect copyright.PENANAs6xZMeVzxb
「這是……誰寫的?」429Please respect copyright.PENANAHNuwAX1xbj
429Please respect copyright.PENANAIeeHy3N6FU
謝綠看著那一排排整齊又秀氣的字,「是李仲翔嗎?」429Please respect copyright.PENANA5UrFwzck8o
429Please respect copyright.PENANAY7pNTZX7D6
「答錯了,是小約翰喔。」429Please respect copyright.PENANAzpgrOFe5uN
429Please respect copyright.PENANAcq79EGKlTH
回答的人不是李博洋,而是喝著麥茶的MIO。429Please respect copyright.PENANAMmQskIjqo3
429Please respect copyright.PENANAJtPxHydQHh
「這才是,薩拉凱爾的真正教義。」
