2157年7月1日,早上七點,政治中心A區647Please respect copyright.PENANAclAr5oWZKZ
647Please respect copyright.PENANAbefnMnpMYj
647Please respect copyright.PENANAnO3XPcJtQW
李晴煬久違來到A區。中央廣場位於南方,和十一塔所在的北方非常不同。以天氣為例,七月的南方真可怕,又悶又熱,早上溫度就這樣,很難想像中午是什麼光景。647Please respect copyright.PENANAoh7pGejcVX
647Please respect copyright.PENANAmTpb5C36eC
李晴煬躲在樹下,嘴裡咬著一根冰棒。一改平時的黑色穿搭,李晴煬今天穿著白色T恤及淺藍色的牛仔破褲,鞋子也是白鞋,看起來休閒、清爽,挺符合酷熱天氣的穿搭風格。647Please respect copyright.PENANAg2Ouk6gQr3
647Please respect copyright.PENANAct8oplYT7V
現在時間──早上七點五分。謝賢應該不是白痴,不會穿顯眼的古裝來赴約,不過,他本人真的會來嗎?李晴煬很懷疑。647Please respect copyright.PENANAQBqidCBFF9
647Please respect copyright.PENANAzrH7aqj3G8
天氣悶熱,吃完冰棒的李晴煬拿著冰棒棍,正覺得煩躁時,一抹身影穿過廣場,有人從他面前走了過去──647Please respect copyright.PENANAvQ6tbd6hnf
647Please respect copyright.PENANABTuug2jKgT
「……!」647Please respect copyright.PENANAfp8er2fbjY
647Please respect copyright.PENANAgluNc45EWy
時間彷彿凍結在這一刻。李晴煬睜大眼睛。謝綠穿著白色的學校制服,手裡拿著書包,一個人走在廣場上。她頭髮紮在後方,綁著普通的馬尾,看起來就像普通的女學生,一點也不像高貴的十大家族子女。647Please respect copyright.PENANAIxebYSRcla
647Please respect copyright.PENANAAvJVGUYDRI
李晴煬認不得沒穿古裝的謝賢,卻一眼認出沒穿古裝的謝綠。十大家族有自己的教育系統,子女不需就讀大學以外的學校,因此,看到謝綠身上的校服,李晴煬非常意外,最封閉的謝氏竟然讓女兒就讀外面的初中,謝綠到底是多特別的存在?647Please respect copyright.PENANAG7pT9h8F3Y
647Please respect copyright.PENANAxxd7VeuDZs
「撲通、撲通、撲通、撲通……」647Please respect copyright.PENANABI6xFH7yJM
647Please respect copyright.PENANAcHADmWwasa
看到謝綠的當下,一股難以言喻的感覺油然而生。李晴煬撫著胸口,想冷靜,心臟卻跳個不停。他好想……好想聽她的聲音、好想知道她過得好不好。他想和謝綠說話,所以他伸手,試圖拉近與女孩的距離──647Please respect copyright.PENANAJThwJLNv8j
647Please respect copyright.PENANAmZUtMuFyLw
「……!」647Please respect copyright.PENANAiNDVzfVFMn
647Please respect copyright.PENANA1FjMEAZC4c
下一秒,理智把他的手拉回。李晴煬閉上眼睛、轉身,故意不去看她。上次開會,沒有把謝綠的天賦說出來,李晴煬一直為此懊惱。他是神與畜、是謝綠的敵人。里奧把謝氏的任務交給他,是基於信任,他不能因為謝綠毀了一切。647Please respect copyright.PENANApqrCVzkoUQ
647Please respect copyright.PENANA89luWxLJvt
何況謝綠已經認不得他。647Please respect copyright.PENANALnij0Us8ZB
647Please respect copyright.PENANAGzzHrgMSGk
不論外表、身分、內在,他已經不是謝綠認識的李晴煬,女孩已經與自己毫無干係,所以──李晴煬,不可以!647Please respect copyright.PENANAmT0s2X4Cjt
647Please respect copyright.PENANAvVbaKKfE0K
647Please respect copyright.PENANAmrb3x5z5UC
不可以去找她。647Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0hHMMvfhb
647Please respect copyright.PENANARWazNAd5Il
不可以和她相認。647Please respect copyright.PENANAHriQkJpktP
647Please respect copyright.PENANA7p0uxpiXY6
不可以……讓她的位置,凌駕在高宇維上面。647Please respect copyright.PENANACJyU0A0eKG
647Please respect copyright.PENANAi7jyOtyTO1
647Please respect copyright.PENANAc5kd9vQKHo
「……。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAN304YLQH3t
647Please respect copyright.PENANADQp4JjbLvu
什麼事該做,什麼事不該做,他分得很清楚。聰明如李晴煬,知道怎麼在自己的理性與感性之間,取得最大公約數。647Please respect copyright.PENANAuSM8VSBZOk
647Please respect copyright.PENANAc7RbTRHzM0
下一秒,另一邊的謝綠拿出手機,看到來電顯示。647Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1QpzmrP2q
647Please respect copyright.PENANAid4WZvAub8
「……!」647Please respect copyright.PENANARVhL2iH5UA
647Please respect copyright.PENANANsgUzOAHbi
謝綠嚇一大跳,連忙滑下接聽,遲疑開口:「喂?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAjyMtQM0Ejz
647Please respect copyright.PENANAfFVS1Ixduk
「嗨,謝綠。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAZUAYHNIjVl
647Please respect copyright.PENANAuBg8QIGVMH
聽到聲音的剎那,李晴煬莫名感到緊張,假裝鎮定地說:「好久不見。」647Please respect copyright.PENANA7gtgKNhB3m
647Please respect copyright.PENANAeWkVX9ODWz
「李晴煬?是你嗎?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAQnv9OZDu2n
647Please respect copyright.PENANApUHUxu2Gkr
謝綠愣了愣,驚訝的聲音裡夾雜喜悅,「你的聲音……?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAhTNYS7eWkH
647Please respect copyright.PENANAKrTvuNZQgt
「很怪吧?因為本大……我長喉結了,哈哈。」647Please respect copyright.PENANA5PQZXf3pKW
647Please respect copyright.PENANAfMQ5cNA5Ej
他撒了個無傷大雅的謊,然後問:「比起那個,妳過得好嗎?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAmbHCVIJTNR
647Please respect copyright.PENANAdHINxndxuE
「老樣子,很討厭待在家。」謝綠微笑,「但生活多了新事物,日子沒以前苦悶,挺好的。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAhvgnHjSG6Y
647Please respect copyright.PENANAUHvQ3CWzck
「感覺得出來,妳的聲音比以前開朗。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAHRzg0TWt9f
647Please respect copyright.PENANAtnRuwVTECz
謝綠似乎不趕時間,她在廣場的椅子坐下來、享受和李晴煬的聊天;另一邊的李晴煬看著遠方的謝綠,嘴角也不自覺上揚,心裡暖暖的,好喜歡此刻的每個瞬間。647Please respect copyright.PENANAIkr76pJ4IN
647Please respect copyright.PENANA9j4jUXbyD8
「倒是你,李晴煬,你還好嗎?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAjGJsPoe9M0
647Please respect copyright.PENANASuB31bcniC
謝綠反問他,聲音透露出一絲擔憂。李晴煬當然知道她在說什麼,避開重點回答:「我記憶恢復了。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAubryi9IdPy
647Please respect copyright.PENANAvg4JPjiU5Q
「……我想也是。」她說:「你叔叔死亡的新聞一出,我就想聯絡你,但我很害怕。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAzXHdo0xxhF
647Please respect copyright.PENANAwcy808Vlos
謝綠遲疑了一會兒,大膽問:647Please respect copyright.PENANA7WjBlD5zm1
647Please respect copyright.PENANAiHwFHxjsrx
647Please respect copyright.PENANAt5Fa7rmhbz
「你變成神與畜了嗎?李晴煬。」647Please respect copyright.PENANABxpIJ4UyE2
647Please respect copyright.PENANAiPQWV98nN5
647Please respect copyright.PENANAGxQ1jNmCzR
李晴煬閉上眼睛,默認。647Please respect copyright.PENANATi8ue2dJZA
647Please respect copyright.PENANAVaJr6P9pnO
「……我應該早點聯絡你的。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAIh30mw1ig5
647Please respect copyright.PENANAjgKpuKBV6Z
謝綠低頭、看著自己的鞋子。非常巧,他和李晴煬的鞋子都是白鞋,而且是同款,一男一女。647Please respect copyright.PENANACaYDS9Ubyx
647Please respect copyright.PENANAQhIu2gdeoP
「我不會因為你變成神與畜就討厭你,相反,我是發自內心珍惜你這位朋友的,相信我。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAsOlkD7IoSy
647Please respect copyright.PENANAhxOlGvuVG7
李晴煬笑了笑。他怎麼會不相信謝綠?論立場,應該是謝綠不相信他。647Please respect copyright.PENANACndIyDW0BU
647Please respect copyright.PENANAHlz8Eg53JZ
「哪,謝綠。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAQjUNV878eX
647Please respect copyright.PENANA52igJDEv0K
李晴煬不知哪根筋不對。他抬頭,看著一朵雲都沒有的天空,問:「從今天起,我能叫妳『小綠』嗎?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAUMjXPDr8gb
647Please respect copyright.PENANAVl5wwRKx4A
「欸?」謝綠的肩膀震了一下,「為什麼?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAPJRAZREZIl
647Please respect copyright.PENANArq3ESIuT5f
「妳討厭的家人可以這樣稱呼,沒道理我不行。」李晴煬露齒一笑,「所以,請多指教啦,小、綠。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAyBglXbd7CB
647Please respect copyright.PENANA9DRq4G18FU
「……!」647Please respect copyright.PENANAEGJal3dG6I
647Please respect copyright.PENANA5LwWeaDj3w
被家人以外的人這麼稱呼,聽起來格外彆扭。謝綠覺得李晴煬不只變聲,個性也不太一樣,不像她印象中的纖細少年。647Please respect copyright.PENANANYCYPXSliA
647Please respect copyright.PENANAE8I1WkVkhe
「不瞞妳說,我最近過得不好,老是想起以前的事。」647Please respect copyright.PENANA0983g4z1u6
647Please respect copyright.PENANAIcYKlkFEVA
李晴煬靠著樹幹,看著遠方的謝綠,「越來越能體會,妳那句話的意思。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAv1SC1IPtaE
647Please respect copyright.PENANATzANDyYEtW
「哪句話?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAIqoLRKZdur
647Please respect copyright.PENANA9zRibjXFy7
「『越是親近,越會互相傷害。』」647Please respect copyright.PENANA2rMshvcpW0
647Please respect copyright.PENANABGKqS0Ppqb
李晴煬閉上眼睛。647Please respect copyright.PENANAsC8Xgjup2p
647Please respect copyright.PENANA0LE53KymrK
「我朋友說,『遺忘』是大腦的自我保護機制,但我非但沒有,反而拼命『記得』。追根究柢,我覺得自己陷得太深,才會放不下。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAeaIdzND8Ft
647Please respect copyright.PENANAH6m7n1LqBs
「……。」謝綠突然叫他的名字:「李晴煬。」647Please respect copyright.PENANA7hFzANCxqo
647Please respect copyright.PENANAzP0CFkrFRf
「嗯?」647Please respect copyright.PENANALqLDk2Lpb7
647Please respect copyright.PENANAhHb0RB2n1i
「李央,是不是你殺的?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAzayi0lr9Zq
647Please respect copyright.PENANA7lUPFg6kn2
李晴煬陷入沉默,這是他今天的第二次默認。647Please respect copyright.PENANAPd3hzgHzt7
647Please respect copyright.PENANAIUVBZl2pwR
「天啊。」647Please respect copyright.PENANA7uy0KhVN4K
647Please respect copyright.PENANAYSBKNhZ1VB
謝綠用手摀住眼睛,感到相當難過。647Please respect copyright.PENANAJGFBDIyDzd
647Please respect copyright.PENANAudnV0TwxVY
「我不敢聯絡你的這段時間,竟然發生這麼多事……!」647Please respect copyright.PENANArfdw42wsGs
647Please respect copyright.PENANAnA9YNxTwwW
「不是妳的錯。」李晴煬反過來安慰她:「命運把我帶到這裡。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAXiLR0Mup5G
647Please respect copyright.PENANAbW57K9QjKJ
「如果是那樣,你的命運也太粗暴了。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAtMJfvdUCSF
647Please respect copyright.PENANA092P1kPBsS
謝綠沒有哭,只是很內疚。她和李晴煬一樣,都把對方看得無比重要。647Please respect copyright.PENANAqrsx64ojIg
647Please respect copyright.PENANAqjLGSh9W2u
「坦白說,我不知道什麼方法,能讓你好過一點,但是──」謝綠把腦中的想法組織成文字:「你殺了李央,這樣還無法放下,恐怕,只剩時間能幫你。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAP9bLvpkNsY
647Please respect copyright.PENANAefDNRY8whk
「時間?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAFbxZXEWL9v
647Please respect copyright.PENANAE6Vzn1wnIo
「嗯,你的聲音也也比以前開朗,我相信現在的你,比在李門時要快樂一些,所以,繼續維持這樣的狀態吧。總有一天,時間會幫你放下李央的。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAR4hhYWwbHF
647Please respect copyright.PENANAHS7axX8jbi
謝綠微微一笑,「你這麼堅強,一定能找到屬於自己的幸福。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAfWt9aQ3t6h
647Please respect copyright.PENANAwKdQWDzvLa
「……但願如此。」李晴煬發自內心地說:「謝謝妳。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAcwpSmv57gS
647Please respect copyright.PENANA0ygt3V0pPv
「不會,謝謝你打給我。」謝綠看了看時間,「抱歉,我還有點事,只能聊到這了。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAjnUuTyIrsf
647Please respect copyright.PENANARePwOzLJ5a
「沒關係,妳去忙吧。」李晴煬問:「我還能打給妳嗎?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAC5v1nLlUHr
647Please respect copyright.PENANAoljt2ZIndj
「當然!」謝綠說:「我沒辦法無時無刻接電話,你可以傳訊息。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAKYgV2UIlx5
647Please respect copyright.PENANAx3hjuBq8dc
「謝謝。」李晴煬又道謝一次,「再見,小綠。」647Please respect copyright.PENANACsYAvDUE69
647Please respect copyright.PENANAfPrnMsSjf6
「再見啦,晴煬。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAf1uYIiTugx
647Please respect copyright.PENANAcHmLzbAPMP
結束通話。遠方的謝綠離開椅子,朝學校的方向走去。她的腳步比剛才輕盈許多,看來,不是只有李晴煬喜歡和她說話,自己在謝綠心裡,也是特別的存在。647Please respect copyright.PENANAkF3VbSP5Yj
647Please respect copyright.PENANAbwDVU9zAuB
尼可拉斯說的沒錯──不是他對異性無感。謝綠是特別的,和那些一夜情的女人不一樣。李晴煬的心情很久沒這麼好,喜歡一個人竟然這麼開心。647Please respect copyright.PENANA5j3vF9NJti
647Please respect copyright.PENANARDLKFKG2xL
李晴煬睜開眼睛,回到廣場、回到太陽、回到酷熱的七月。他看時間:七點四十分,謝賢已經遲到四十分鐘。李晴煬開始懷疑,自己是不是被堂堂的謝氏大少爺,放了鴿子。647Please respect copyright.PENANACjqn7T6tkO
647Please respect copyright.PENANAWdSDxFJabF
647Please respect copyright.PENANAVY4qpseqKe
「『只剩時間能幫你』……這樣啊。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAcIT1Zinp4h
647Please respect copyright.PENANAt8IthfFyLi
647Please respect copyright.PENANA15vSlKZlFZ
熟悉的聲音從頭頂傳來。李晴煬抬頭,一名少年竟坐在他頭頂的樹上,身披白色披風,戴著一頂黑色的高帽子。647Please respect copyright.PENANAwNVX2BvbfC
647Please respect copyright.PENANADgQ5ZRe5VF
647Please respect copyright.PENANA1UNJ66czhn
「原本只是有點在意,才過來看看。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAnwAf3w3MIy
647Please respect copyright.PENANAUqo5Iyb9ic
「真有你的啊,晴煬。」647Please respect copyright.PENANANWIlaJEpoh
647Please respect copyright.PENANAk7WeuMAHIu
647Please respect copyright.PENANAQGzvAthieM
少年低頭,露出慵懶的微笑。那一瞬間,李晴煬的心臟幾乎停止。眼前的少年他見過──在那片桃花林。647Please respect copyright.PENANAGDwcJesqKQ
647Please respect copyright.PENANAWD9icdwLlM
「宇維少爺……!」647Please respect copyright.PENANA1QfFNMUKzp
647Please respect copyright.PENANAoFQXbZxziK
十大家族之首、二十二世紀的帝王、神與畜的頭頂上司,如今正坐在樹枝上,對自己微笑。647Please respect copyright.PENANAFA12tCUih8
647Please respect copyright.PENANAaMPyL38Oux
照MIO的說法,高宇維是他爺爺那輩的人。上個世紀的人活到現在,還維持十二歲的外表,除了水果塔,李晴煬想不到其它解釋。647Please respect copyright.PENANAtNPQmubQlM
647Please respect copyright.PENANAoRD7WfiR39
高宇維的頭髮是灰色的,有點蓬鬆,以男生來說偏長;他有很漂亮的灰色眼睛,五官端正,是個清秀的少年,可惜黑眼圈毀了一切,就像重金屬樂團的黑色眼妝。沒睡飽時,眼神渙散,很像喪屍。647Please respect copyright.PENANADYrodCyIcj
647Please respect copyright.PENANAbVfmYGz4gS
幸好,高宇維今天精神不錯,沒那麼死氣沉沉,還有──他的右眼,高宇維戴著眼罩。李晴煬的故事,就是從那隻眼睛開始的。647Please respect copyright.PENANAVhoomQs6SS
647Please respect copyright.PENANAx9qZ7cl7hB
「嘿咻。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAWvk0RhvFSz
647Please respect copyright.PENANAueSM4MJAZF
高宇維從樹上跳下來。他穿著黑襯衫,以及黑色的吊帶短褲,但吊帶的部分是深紅色。奇怪的是,他背上有件白色披風,頭上有頂黑色高帽,手裡拿著白色拐杖,好像要去參加變裝派對。647Please respect copyright.PENANAkmzslXreGr
647Please respect copyright.PENANA3cr88eLodc
「宇維少爺……」647Please respect copyright.PENANALP29o11nff
647Please respect copyright.PENANAA7je2DxcQP
高宇維人在這,這事本身就很不正常。李晴煬問高宇維:「您為什麼在這?」647Please respect copyright.PENANArGqrCZxFGX
647Please respect copyright.PENANAIii4BaSvW8
「嗯?你不是和謝賢有約嗎?」647Please respect copyright.PENANABDDss84KFL
647Please respect copyright.PENANAe0fYNuTw0e
高宇維拍掉身上的灰塵,灰色、沒有漸層的眼睛掃向李晴煬,「他叫我來的。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAgLI8J6KOeL
647Please respect copyright.PENANAxOcZdezAEl
「……!?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAufE65g8AhZ
647Please respect copyright.PENANA7mg1YfvTCd
不論主詞、動詞或受詞,李晴煬都感到震驚。謝賢憑什麼?宇維少爺為什麼要聽?他們這些人,到底在打什麼主意?647Please respect copyright.PENANAgQDZOs5oJo
647Please respect copyright.PENANAdaluS0JkF8
「先不說這個了。晴煬,你剛跟謝綠說了什麼?」647Please respect copyright.PENANA8hISBvmdq0
647Please respect copyright.PENANAs41wdJkM5A
不像開會時的緩慢語速,高宇維今天的聲音很正常,但他的眼睛──大大的,搭配那個黑眼圈,很恐怖。647Please respect copyright.PENANAhDGykl1zEL
647Please respect copyright.PENANAeWHQxROSkp
「你跟她坦白了身分。」高宇維的口氣很平靜:「你告訴謝氏的人,自己是神與畜?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAVMNw5BM8A6
647Please respect copyright.PENANAUH30Wi5Swk
李晴煬沒有回話。647Please respect copyright.PENANA7KCqeaTufR
647Please respect copyright.PENANA1GETU1xxye
「聰明的孩子,你為什麼,要給自己找麻煩?」高宇維單刀直入地問:「你喜歡她?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAdj7Gf57qj2
647Please respect copyright.PENANA56wZ3VB949
「不!我……!」647Please respect copyright.PENANAcXimaDbCxN
647Please respect copyright.PENANAEtESMe1BuQ
話說到一半就卡住。李晴煬發現,自己沒辦法撒這個謊。647Please respect copyright.PENANAeEZ0gblN1Y
647Please respect copyright.PENANA1NxjKJL5UN
「宇維少爺,我很抱歉,我不會再因為私情洩漏其他資訊。」647Please respect copyright.PENANA44nxxwMPYa
647Please respect copyright.PENANAfabVzXg7Pg
李晴煬急忙道歉,但高宇維沒有看他,灰色的眼睛盯著樹上的小鳥,補了句:647Please respect copyright.PENANAr1aSy5z883
647Please respect copyright.PENANAUbqx14erqL
647Please respect copyright.PENANALb9Kuge1JJ
「不會洩漏,但會幫她隱瞞,是嗎?」647Please respect copyright.PENANAGCa38xiTy9
647Please respect copyright.PENANAwG0mNKC9Y7
647Please respect copyright.PENANA2HLCeOXfTX
「……!」647Please respect copyright.PENANAwoFRCUsPBg
647Please respect copyright.PENANAhQSmd3nTTX
就像給心臟來了記重擊,李晴煬嚇得當場閉嘴。647Please respect copyright.PENANAJ0qrhgWt65
647Please respect copyright.PENANAaPL47vpVto
「不用怕,晴煬,我不會怪你。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAdMqQN3ZUMV
647Please respect copyright.PENANA0VZdBb1k07
下一秒,李晴煬的脖子被拐杖勾住。高宇維將他拉到自己面前,額頭靠著李晴煬的額頭,不明所以地笑著。647Please respect copyright.PENANAbsaMnKmEP9
647Please respect copyright.PENANAx7ZDT9M4mu
647Please respect copyright.PENANANyT1M5QrpO
「你只是有點不完美,沒關係。」647Please respect copyright.PENANAGOTBXdkPzc
647Please respect copyright.PENANAIlGws9CdgK
「我讓『時間』來幫你。」
