2161年2月21日，下午七點，卡洛爾大廈324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhq434x9qXR
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEih8Jq7Alf
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsSqfIXJ8t
李晴煬在書房，與此同時，謝綠、江云格、賴梓綾三人，在客廳與艾莉絲一起，詢問有關羅琳娜的事。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIr5afsdUpy
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4oovk7ZpN
「你們想知道哪一方面？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKIDuT9l0I
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIdYJMN0Zd
艾莉絲問他們。謝綠貪心地回答：「全部，我受夠一知半解了。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9WpkuXgEY
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4yG2JL6eP
「……。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhATZzPvY0
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBN8RSIQJMS
「我要知道全部，還有──」謝綠表示：「宇維少爺和獅鷲，這兩方究竟想做什麼、該怎麼阻止，我也必須知道。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlM5Wr41JVb
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfby44ZeK5
「……。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcA484iKfK
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4CtXnAtrr
艾莉絲突然不說話，漆黑的眼珠凝視著謝綠的臉，尤其是她的草綠色眼睛。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEbCGJxOT0
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EwIF0BOCx
「怎麼了？」謝綠覺得她的視線很奇怪。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZWpy8FjUa
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoU75TkMKn4
「不，沒什麼。」艾莉絲小聲地說：「原來妳的眼睛是這樣。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBRz4FaIyN
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTk1qZWMRaY
「……？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFScJBBeTB
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YmQCYgmsk
艾莉絲講得很小聲，還是被聽力極好的江云格聽見。他不知道艾莉絲在說什麼，艾莉絲也立刻轉移話題，江云格沒辦法問。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuKVILU5SS
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4pxrQB98C
「羅琳娜就是水果塔。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJnT2GZyvX
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjGCCH836y
艾莉絲兩手交疊，放在腿上，心平氣和地說：「她擁有每一種水果塔，也能使用每一種水果塔──照理說是這樣。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYOzZEAVri
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD90s6dgJ4q
「照理說？」江云格聽到關鍵字。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNRS1OJ3sh
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYqTQ4tZFu
「白絃正在衰弱。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqt1kmtXmR
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmA7PYbwB5
艾莉絲用別的稱呼，以此區分白絃的多重身份。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPTentouCH
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTtVSvtb6w
「白絃體內，屬於『羅琳娜』的力量在不斷流失，正退化成第一代水果塔『獅鷲』──這對艾莉絲體系十分不利，我們將失去對抗蜘蛛的最大戰力，但白絃的衰弱，是瘋帽的一大機會。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NimY5s9Wk
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyD0pYQrVcX
「什麼機會？」謝綠問。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZOXVrKY8I
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOyJpaiNlq
「讓李仲翔回來。」艾莉絲回答：「李仲翔當年會死，因為他面對的不只是『獅鷲』，而是『羅琳娜』；一旦李仲翔透過李晴煬的身體歸來，衰弱的白絃無法對抗完整的紅心傑克，然後……」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBrQckIipc
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtQe3EHeYA
艾莉絲突然打住，冰冷的表情難得，出現類似困惑的情緒。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaol4Pb9avf
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGrzXOspNz
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx80q2TgQcD
「李仲翔會找到我、利用共鳴，喚醒當年的夏悠。『夏悠透過現在的艾莉絲歸來，與所有水果塔共鳴、重振艾莉絲體系』──以此撕毀《羅琳娜條約》，是瘋帽的最終目的。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5DAZMOvpg
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VMmrEJl6O
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBej6MBoOCc
「……？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdto7ikLel
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZROYgLSvA
聽到這，謝綠和江云格理解，為什麼艾莉絲會感到困惑。言下之意，高宇維計畫的關鍵，除了李晴煬，另一個就是艾莉絲。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qUaGYgcvf
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsN83EhT7ZN
「『只要李仲翔回來，妳就會變成夏悠』──為什麼宇維少爺如此篤定？這件事的成功機率，是百分之百嗎？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzde0caoZi
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlh9grYC7ry
謝綠看著艾莉絲，「妳有夏悠的外表、身份、記憶，但妳不是她，妳根本不認識李仲翔，怎麼會被他影響？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHDIzFGove
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwW5kfpbxy
「白絃也是這麼說。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnukMlCOFA
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDtiSAFIJu
艾莉絲抬頭，盯著天花板的一個點。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLh3538EvEY
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BKKzFTSrU
「對我而言，夏悠的記憶像電影，我只是看電影的觀眾，不是主角。我好奇白絃和李仲翔、也會感到熟悉，但我沒有夏悠的感情；之於『我』，他們只是艾莉絲體系的兩個人，我和他們沒有感情基礎，所以我不明白。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygzMO2CMSq
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShrTpDfHLe
高宇維和白絃，兩人都認為對方會失敗，因為他們掌握的關鍵截然相反──高宇維相信夏悠會回來，白絃不是。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLURC6oovGO
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhiP0nXNuO
「宇維少爺，一定還有沒打出來的牌，只是我們不知道。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYZvuwxkjm
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwkHo22c4H
江云格思索。高宇維這些年的重心，都放在李晴煬、神與畜、十大家族，很少提到艾莉絲；可見在他的認定，艾莉絲的事情非但不急，還不擔心白絃從中做艮。按高宇維的個性，把一件重要的事放著不管，他肯定很有把握。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d8M1Bl8dp
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCyBkhP45D
「作為艾莉絲，妳不會想做什麼嗎？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fNGqHgE7Q
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmH48ZSEtg
謝綠突然問，艾莉絲難得眨眼，似乎不明白她在問什麼。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLpXVIotye
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CWFmUCwYu
「雖然被《羅琳娜條約》削弱權力，但之前做錯事的是夏悠，不是妳；夏悠犯下的罪，其實不用妳承擔。」謝綠表示：「什麼也不做，任憑宇維少爺和白絃左右自己。身為艾莉絲，妳不會不甘心嗎？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5YbZoplnw
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsioS5a6WA
「……。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmP0OOyg6kD
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEa9xCvbT4u
艾莉絲低頭。她沉默很久，才緩緩開口：「我隨時都會被取代。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlnRzq58pR
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4fMQ5sfW7
「什麼？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOwWVUqfDv
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ktH4YzOLR
「說故事的人是羅琳娜，不是我。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFVnEm234U
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOUNU1qQsG
艾莉絲喝了一口拿鐵，今天的第五杯。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbRGtmiii3
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUXlGqTFF0
「夏悠死了，羅琳娜沒有讓一切結束，而是創造新的艾莉絲、建立十大家族，確保水果塔被一代代傳承；沒有繼承人的水果塔，就用人造人去彌補。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76xnoAkTVp
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFFQiLpBSZ
艾莉絲閉上眼睛。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hSrFauz19
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqs2qZ8XO1
「我們，都是白絃保存回憶的一部分。她希望艾莉絲體系繼續存在，這樣，第一代水果塔的故事就不會結束。夏悠不能回來，但她和夏悠的回憶，白絃不想讓它消失，所以羅琳娜讓我們在這──在沒有夏悠的艾莉絲體系──延續水果塔的故事，保存她的回憶。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EfYahAvwl
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKQB3CUX7R
艾莉絲看著他們，尤其是謝綠。江云格發現，艾莉絲看謝綠的眼神一直很怪。雖然不明顯，但那雙漆黑的眼珠，蘊藏很多情緒。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXrxJVI2IT
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1taobs91cP
「瘋帽也不希望故事結束，這點，他和羅琳娜有相同的共識，所以他們給我這棟大樓，既是保護我，也是監視我；如果我做出不符合『艾莉絲』的舉動，羅琳娜會將我破壞。既然隨時會被取代，『我』的存在有什麼意義？既然沒有意義，『我』維持現狀或變成夏悠，又有什麼區別？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZKyKuavyh
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69rEpNZBcK
「……。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazdmk5d3zD
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCZsseECL8
她不是「什麼都沒做」，而是「什麼都做不了」。身居高位，虛位元首；身而為王，君權神授。她無法對抗高宇維，也無法違抗羅琳娜。被命運囚禁的，除了水果塔後代，還有「偉大的」艾莉絲。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIKJaXytjc
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUDqlM2Lfx
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7buyQSnEsH
「沙利葉。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYKgaTa61V
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJQyAGU4qT
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOPhpDx8fC
突然，沒聽過的聲音加入談話。艾莉絲、謝綠、江云格轉頭，看向一直坐在旁邊，默默聽他們對話的賴梓綾。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpLM5BR4uX
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfy7LhkFSO
「羅琳娜，死於，沙利葉。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHay1AOm4g
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMXhpQ3UKO
這是賴梓綾講過最完整的句子。江云格和謝綠這才想起，筆記本最後一章的內容，就是這一句。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5hnFQZGDq
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHNtfs9ikW
「沙利葉……」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7g8cP7MbV6
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72ttJfknE4
艾莉絲覆誦。她有夏悠的記憶，知道筆記本的內容，但太久沒聽到這個詞，一時覺得陌生。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMS7PvYnnok
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVtUXGmmV6
「我記得，沙利葉是薩拉凱爾教的核心，被稱作『月之天使』。」江云格問艾莉絲：「為什麼薩拉凱爾教的傳說，會和艾莉絲體系扯上關係？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfGVUVYE0w
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWLj0stJ2B
謝綠也問：「沙利葉到底是誰，羅琳娜為什麼會死於沙利葉？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzWOFrjq54
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCr9FTwslVo
艾莉絲陷入沉思。這時，賴梓綾又開口：「利維坦。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gE3WsC9Li
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbt4k9Oxt3
「……？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wVCyLByRr
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgNqI7f9oj
「沙利葉，回來。」賴梓綾斷斷續續地說：「和，利維坦，一起回來。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZ4J8Y3KAR
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPYJ2SKxwb
「……！」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzalaCvoix
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlacS64YxR6
大家都不知道她在說什麼，但賴梓綾的話，似乎讓艾莉絲想到什麼。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTzT9ZJ3nS
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15GX1mwKE6
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSDlGJ3eYJ
「我想，小約翰所說的『沙利葉』，就是蜘蛛。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SIbFfcQ1C
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT32wCQw5Me
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1MEQz9Qpv
艾莉絲說出她認為的答案，但這答案，讓謝綠和江云格感到十分震驚。謝綠問艾莉絲：「紅鶴就是沙利葉，他能殺死羅琳娜？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznN5PTpFmT
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjebX4DgAek
聽到謝綠的問題，艾莉絲難得出現表情。她用介於困惑和驚訝之間的眼神，看著謝綠和江云格。324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZeFtTrH2h
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe91WF5SEa
「瘋帽，沒有跟你們說嗎？」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyP11VtwzdD
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNVA25s6lP
艾莉絲停頓，一字一句，說出令人震驚的事實──324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfhVkJWqEQ
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Dhq3ojEXr
「蜘蛛不只一個。」324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2MhGEdIsp
