「……成功了?」393Please respect copyright.PENANAj2GZjEAlsq
393Please respect copyright.PENANAX6n0gUAyi7
凝雪寺,蜘蛛糖的系統將檸檬的狀況,告訴正在掃落葉的羅笙。393Please respect copyright.PENANA631mTwDKAL

「『與利維坦同步』……做得好,安琪。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAeYou1ilmY8
393Please respect copyright.PENANAsYx7IZOqjZ
得知好消息,羅笙感到驕傲,嘴角竟不自覺上揚,也是他這些年第一次,為白絃以外的事微笑。393Please respect copyright.PENANAA04cUkWVA4
393Please respect copyright.PENANAfemPpzrPfO
「只要利維坦穩定,就能應用在實戰,我們的勝算會更大。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAAyffCpwcFL
393Please respect copyright.PENANAvwc3mewaNp
思索到一半,羅笙看見郭凝羽朝這邊走來,似乎有事找他。393Please respect copyright.PENANASVDgZkIjJf
393Please respect copyright.PENANAAhFSBwEusr
「凝羽,怎麼了?」393Please respect copyright.PENANAu9vIUwvtQo
393Please respect copyright.PENANArHGrNQoqdd
「……。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAQkQbwLKYbq
393Please respect copyright.PENANAvnhgGPVor2
郭凝羽沒有笑,表情莫名沉重。羅笙覺得奇怪,直到郭凝羽的嘴吐出玫瑰花瓣,他才意識到不對勁。393Please respect copyright.PENANAb2EsINfHFA
393Please respect copyright.PENANAo6YzHwPOSM
「這是什麼?」393Please respect copyright.PENANAg8dSFiwtbd
393Please respect copyright.PENANAnO9uSWd1dy
紅色的玫瑰花瓣,落在羅笙剛掃好、成堆的枯葉上。他抓著郭凝羽的肩膀,著急問:「誰用的?高宇維,還是我姊姊?」393Please respect copyright.PENANABPTPxVjjBa
393Please respect copyright.PENANAdzth4vLPHI
「……。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAIWxV1zam9Y
393Please respect copyright.PENANAcpJ6kOvy75
郭凝羽沒有回答,冰涼的手牽著羅笙,示意他跟上。393Please respect copyright.PENANAOxNhroOCf2
393Please respect copyright.PENANAoaGxEzy1SD
跟在郭凝羽後面,羅笙沿著樓梯,來到漆黑的地下室。這是郭凝羽平時打坐的地方,羅笙從沒來過。393Please respect copyright.PENANAdlVANe3WCr
393Please respect copyright.PENANALMFitEZ4c5
郭凝羽點亮蠟燭,一共九盞,幽微的火光照亮地下室,羅笙看見包圍他們的佛像,每尊都有一層樓高。郭凝羽示意中間的位子,兩人面對面坐下。393Please respect copyright.PENANAA918RFlEFa

郭凝羽開口,冰涼的手依然牽著羅笙。她沒有唱歌,而是一字一句唸著。羅笙屏氣凝神,不敢說話。393Please respect copyright.PENANA5cSfrRb1Ku

393Please respect copyright.PENANAFRAa2im2dY
語畢,周圍的佛像、牆壁、地板……所有一切遁入黑暗,彷彿被吸入深淵,只有白色的蜘蛛網亮著,粉紅色的鶴穿梭於蜘蛛網間,還有兩條藍色的魚,他們游在一起。393Please respect copyright.PENANALCrI4Ogh02
393Please respect copyright.PENANAJyOzWtuIPb
「這是……妳眼裡的世界嗎?」393Please respect copyright.PENANABxbEqhNgrn
393Please respect copyright.PENANAduyZ7qWVVR
羅笙和郭凝羽兩人,都坐在網的中央。她將看到的、聽到的,透過牽在一起的手,分享給她的眷屬羅笙。郭凝羽的眼睛看不見塵世,卻能看見別的、只有位於網中央的蜘蛛,才能看見的東西。393Please respect copyright.PENANA0Bhifbfvdg

393Please respect copyright.PENANAgyuBBePdG3
羅笙抬頭,發現郭凝羽上方,有個不同於蜘蛛網、完全不一樣的世界,和煦的陽光從那個世界灑下,和郭凝羽的婚戒連在一起。393Please respect copyright.PENANAwdJ9551Ug1
393Please respect copyright.PENANAMZ6FH8s6wy
「仙境……?」393Please respect copyright.PENANA52n60IpulB
393Please respect copyright.PENANA3J0Y05jnCv
羅笙想的沒錯,那是羅琳娜的仙境。凡是第一代水果塔,都是白絃記憶的一部分。儘管成為蜘蛛,「笑臉」與羅琳娜的連結始終存在,白絃沒有忘記她。393Please respect copyright.PENANAtGKWSni5r2
393Please respect copyright.PENANA9l2sfb4zAo
然而,正是與仙境的連結,羅笙看見不屬於羅琳娜,也不屬於郭凝羽的東西──花瓣。393Please respect copyright.PENANA7EBYzFd0GQ
393Please respect copyright.PENANAOJzHpvcNyr
血紅色的玫瑰,纏繞著仙境的光,深根於郭凝羽體內,所以她吐出了花。若不予理會,玫瑰會蔓延到蜘蛛網上。393Please respect copyright.PENANA6kriSmvc7p
393Please respect copyright.PENANAXULfmnWyai
393Please respect copyright.PENANAgk715iFd0y

393Please respect copyright.PENANAaDOVeWU3RY
393Please respect copyright.PENANA4DHQx78Imz
為了羅笙,為了檸檬,為了利維坦,郭凝羽做出選擇──她的婚戒裂成兩半。郭凝羽割斷玫瑰,割斷陽光,割斷與羅琳娜的連結,割斷水果塔的一切。393Please respect copyright.PENANA79xOyhHITP
393Please respect copyright.PENANAeIzQSE8zgX
「咳咳……咳咳咳……!」393Please respect copyright.PENANANYmtHI5FAH
393Please respect copyright.PENANAC7hQqAFL52
婚戒破裂,郭凝羽放開羅笙,摀著嘴巴咳嗽。他們回到地下室,羅笙再次看見那些佛像,蜘蛛網不見蹤影。393Please respect copyright.PENANAh9Uv00Kk66
393Please respect copyright.PENANA3T9EZyTn95
「凝羽!」393Please respect copyright.PENANAoq62WX7dKc
393Please respect copyright.PENANAhWblkeDSxQ
羅笙攙扶,郭凝羽不停地咳,成堆的紅色花瓣被吐到地上。直到玫瑰離開她的身體,郭凝羽才停止咳嗽,變回平常的她。393Please respect copyright.PENANA7LIkzjH4db
393Please respect copyright.PENANAuBdO16Z1jr
「……。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAYJ5lAdXmjr
393Please respect copyright.PENANAm0OonkqmQT
她微笑,沒有和羅笙多說。郭凝羽起身,當他們回到一樓,羅笙看見寺外的地板,結冰的湖面全部崩裂,冰塊在水中載浮載沉,慢慢溶化。393Please respect copyright.PENANAtvm9WvUVhN
393Please respect copyright.PENANA4WjEBpE13V
「凝羽,妳的水果塔……!」393Please respect copyright.PENANA36MBy7CS6t
393Please respect copyright.PENANA6V946dOrTR
如冰之火,如火之冰──當郭凝羽斷開仙境,「笑臉」的水果塔自此消失。她拒絕仙境,拒絕羅琳娜,拒絕與艾莉絲共鳴;現在的她只是蜘蛛,沒有別的身分。393Please respect copyright.PENANADHGZMFY3BW

「郭さん……?」393Please respect copyright.PENANAWJPQh3IZkq
393Please respect copyright.PENANAy3fgMJtLcA
393Please respect copyright.PENANAluoKHDtaCD
那一刻,包含假海龜在內的水果塔,都感知到仙境裡,名為「笑臉」的存在已經消失。雖然郭凝羽是蜘蛛,遲早與他們分道揚鑣,但事出突然,NAGI還是覺得奇怪。393Please respect copyright.PENANARpD7Qd7nDX
393Please respect copyright.PENANAEo2YtPOwUg
「媽媽?」393Please respect copyright.PENANAm8c93CIMed
393Please respect copyright.PENANAqMvOnFW9hI
正在泡溫泉的MIO抬頭,看著坐在岩石上的NAGI,問:「怎麼了?」393Please respect copyright.PENANARY1H2X46QF
393Please respect copyright.PENANAldcMk2F7dP
「郭さん……笑臉不見了。」393Please respect copyright.PENANApgKjIfiIin
393Please respect copyright.PENANAI8eTjgQMfC
NAGI一說,MIO和遠在B區的李博洋都愣住。MIO知道李博洋想問什麼,代替發問:「被羅琳娜遺忘了嗎?」393Please respect copyright.PENANAOPZkPlP3jZ
393Please respect copyright.PENANAU3YIlyGyjp
「不,雖然白さん處境不妙,但真要忘記,第一個被遺忘的會是黛娜,不會是笑臉。」NAGI思考,「我想,是她自己脫離的,機率比較大。」393Please respect copyright.PENANA5prSaQwK9l
393Please respect copyright.PENANA7cZ30MRCAq
MIO歪頭,再幫李博洋問:「為什麼是現在?發生什麼事?」393Please respect copyright.PENANA0ItCGn73SQ
393Please respect copyright.PENANAz6G8BkaoPr
「我倒想問你們。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAcs4aqtStDT
393Please respect copyright.PENANAJBJZY63b10
NAGI掀開面具,從嘴裡拿出一片玫瑰花瓣,問他倆:「這個,與你們期望的事有關嗎?」393Please respect copyright.PENANAJcnwwd9yWL
393Please respect copyright.PENANAOOswN5E5yG
「噢!是晴煬!」393Please respect copyright.PENANAWRx1AVuJ4q
393Please respect copyright.PENANALYP1CrspTK
神與畜內,MIO是唯一見過紅玫瑰和白玫瑰的成員,所以MIO異常興奮,迫不急待地說:393Please respect copyright.PENANAGENcE0cSJK
393Please respect copyright.PENANAyQYZWN0rko
「雖然不知道能幹嘛,但MIO和博洋保證,一定是快樂的事情喔!媽媽不用擔心!」393Please respect copyright.PENANAS0733XMjRQ
393Please respect copyright.PENANABDKaQV4mbF
「……。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAhHpzcHk8wx
393Please respect copyright.PENANAbRWBUl3Yc6
女兒這麼說,NAGI便不再追問、扔掉花瓣,任其在體內滋長。凡是MIO期望的、喜歡的,她都無所謂。393Please respect copyright.PENANA9Lq3HY0pBX

突然,隔壁房屋傳來老人的聲音。MIO大喊「好耶!」,離開燙到爆炸的溫泉,換上浴衣、吹好頭髮。以前都要李博洋幫忙,她現在能一個人解決,MIO覺得自己很棒。393Please respect copyright.PENANAM5IytpSu94
393Please respect copyright.PENANAGYv45HJp1d
「中田,今天吃什麼?」393Please respect copyright.PENANASeo9dUSMiF
393Please respect copyright.PENANAhDSgEqlVNY
打開小屋的拉門,MIO跑到客廳、鑽進暖桌,跟幫她盛飯的老爺爺聊天。393Please respect copyright.PENANAtwoSueBlvg
393Please respect copyright.PENANAWOMOL8Ufvc
「哇!是MIO今天釣的魚!」看見桌上的烤魚,MIO的眼睛閃閃發亮。393Please respect copyright.PENANAiZnMwvQqJa
393Please respect copyright.PENANACnbEQN3bH8
「是,多虧中村,中田今天煮了魚,中田很會煮魚。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAgOaAwFvXyj
393Please respect copyright.PENANANR6SV9P1hU
眼前的老爺爺,正是最後一位證人──中田翔太,也是超過百歲的人瑞。中田一生都在Platinum工作,尤其與希波克拉底合作的醫療項目,中田因此接觸許多健康方面的知識,也是他長壽的原因之一。393Please respect copyright.PENANALE3mq55Atb
393Please respect copyright.PENANAj8k8945PAp
中田的妻子早已逝世,兒子女兒都有自己的家。退休後,中田一個人住在深山,每天去神社打掃、參拜,也是在那裡遇見MIO。怪的是,不管MIO怎麼糾正,中田都叫她「中村」。李博洋說,中田得了名字很長的病,阿什麼海默的,MIO記不起來。393Please respect copyright.PENANArplW8ffZSn
393Please respect copyright.PENANAIjoAMkNUoC

393Please respect copyright.PENANAMl3BZUXLo1
393Please respect copyright.PENANA5rwDefUyhl
吃晚餐時,MIO耳邊傳來羅俊的聲音。羅俊問MIO:「中田老人痴呆,是睡覺拿枕頭悶死、都不會掙扎的類型哪,MIO在等什麼?」393Please respect copyright.PENANAaL0mfusyRA
393Please respect copyright.PENANAZjiRqRubzv
「別急,羅俊。」393Please respect copyright.PENANANMtaF2QsqJ
393Please respect copyright.PENANAhAcQd31UJ6
回答的人是李博洋,他代替MIO說:「時間快了,不用擔心。」393Please respect copyright.PENANA2gwAczNOSM
393Please respect copyright.PENANAw3KHBr2JkD
「你們上禮拜也講一樣的話。」羅俊抱怨:「搞不懂你們在想什麼……殺人不是你們的專長嗎?對象是手無寸鐵的老人,到底困難在哪?」393Please respect copyright.PENANAHiTf3iEd4o
393Please respect copyright.PENANAfOIiLjRgRl
「MIO知道自己在做什麼,我也一直看著。」李博洋擺出前輩的架式,教訓羅俊:「管好你自己,旁邊那位公主也是,不要質疑我們的判斷。想發牢騷,去找你的赫老大,他是牢騷界的勞斯萊斯。」393Please respect copyright.PENANA1CnTBlBNjk
393Please respect copyright.PENANA2bQWvFgJR6
語畢,羅俊被迫下線。MIO繼續吃晚餐,繼續和中田聊天。她想泡茶,中田卻拿走MIO的茶葉,表示:「中田不想喝中村泡的茶,中村泡的茶很難喝。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAUZKRBr1m8F
393Please respect copyright.PENANAKQzl6PIm4n
「騙人!!」MIO伸手要搶茶葉,氣噗噗地說:「MIO每天泡給博洋喝,博洋喝得很開心,是中田的舌頭有問題!」393Please respect copyright.PENANAz6DqBDKHdf
393Please respect copyright.PENANAxEzHoE9Kd1
一老一小吵吵鬧鬧,MIO追著中田,兩人繞著暖桌跑來跑去,筷子都掉到榻榻米上。全程目睹的NAGI靠著壁櫥,戴著面具偷笑。393Please respect copyright.PENANAdsp2V1yc4x
393Please respect copyright.PENANAbof4RkmTvC
最後,MIO還是搶到茶葉,中田必須喝又苦又燙的茶。看到桌上的魚,中田想起什麼,突然問MIO:「中村還記得嗎?小學的校外教學,老師帶我們去水族館,那裡有好多魚。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAIcqcVygf7n
393Please respect copyright.PENANAnGWNdp6Yq9
「不記得。」MIO誠實回答:「MIO沒上過學,也沒有老師,但MIO和博洋去過水族館,看到很多企鵝。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAFY58DNc8An
393Please respect copyright.PENANAargBcvkRBG
「中田記得,中村那時候帶的便當是咖哩,是中村自己做的。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAUv7hokD7zA
393Please respect copyright.PENANAP05J6him0H
中田好像沒聽到,自顧自地說:「中村很厲害,小學的時候就會煮飯,不像中田什麼都不會,因為中田很膽小。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAuyCcTacTk1
393Please respect copyright.PENANAKOYXYSmCmj
講到回憶,中田都會像這樣自言自語,聽不進別人的話。MIO打開中田家的古老電視,邊吃邊看,不予理會,反正中田也不會理她。393Please respect copyright.PENANAw4nIX0PMgv
393Please respect copyright.PENANAaJbQjK9npk
「如果中田勇敢一點就好了。」393Please respect copyright.PENANArCT9sMoFxk

「……。」393Please respect copyright.PENANAAw917WfEuX
