2161年2月21日,下午四點,仙境大樓,八層294Please respect copyright.PENANA71RFnThZ1S
294Please respect copyright.PENANAFR8PlEPzVW
294Please respect copyright.PENANAbfBzSPu1Sf
打鐵趁熱,事不宜遲。尼可拉斯傳來夏家的座標後,李晴煬、賴梓綾、江云格、謝綠四人決定立刻出發,但賴梓綾沒有去過外面的世界,出發前,謝綠帶賴梓綾回自己房間,物色適合的衣服。294Please respect copyright.PENANAfqvJcFMqSY
294Please respect copyright.PENANAQK6DTbeER6
這些日子,賴梓綾的情緒穩定許多,不知道李晴煬用了什麼方法,或體內的睡鼠讓她不自覺、對同樣是水果塔後裔的人感到安心。她能和謝綠獨處一室,李晴煬不需要在旁邊。294Please respect copyright.PENANA01Kkycb084
294Please respect copyright.PENANAr0haxtMtOB
「唔,傷腦筋。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAFzWWOhrDyF
294Please respect copyright.PENANApQ6mveA1gG
站在衣櫃前,謝綠左翻右翻。賴梓綾個子比她高,謝綠找了很久,才翻到一件黑色的帽T,和一條明顯不是她尺寸的黑色褲子。294Please respect copyright.PENANAs4SjgaWwt3
294Please respect copyright.PENANA34o1hjASjT
「梓綾,妳穿穿看這個。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAFbebiRrkIO
294Please respect copyright.PENANAUaR8UWfso9
賴梓綾體重過瘦,腰圍有些不符,但褲管長度剛好。這是謝綠之前買錯、忘記退貨的褲子,沒想到幫了大忙。294Please respect copyright.PENANAe3ayVV5qiR
294Please respect copyright.PENANASLb5B8oqa3
在謝綠的幫助下,賴梓綾乖乖換上黑色帽T。為了避免引人注目,謝綠故意將她的帽子戴起來,把賴梓綾的白色長髮藏在裡面。294Please respect copyright.PENANA1o9WsRnXf8
294Please respect copyright.PENANAmg3rWDxgjl
「OK,大功告成。」謝綠幫她黏掉衣服上的貓毛,順便問:「梓綾,有哪裡不舒服嗎?」294Please respect copyright.PENANADmJ8DyaWJV
294Please respect copyright.PENANAOs8SkS1t9B
「……。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAFhYLZsFRLs
294Please respect copyright.PENANAchD7DB04vM
賴梓綾不會講話,只是微微皺眉,手放在自己的胸口。謝綠知道她想表達什麼,告訴她:「第一次穿都會不習慣,梓綾稍微忍忍,回來就可以……呃,如果妳不介意李晴煬在旁邊,脫掉也沒關係。」294Please respect copyright.PENANA27xbPPGHt6
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1ucROL4iIP
賴梓綾鼓嘴,看起來不太開心,謝綠覺得她的表情很可愛。294Please respect copyright.PENANArh4PsAgVRG
294Please respect copyright.PENANAXefFV56Fvz
無法用言語交流,但感覺得出,賴梓綾很喜歡謝綠,她是繼李晴煬後、第二個能和賴梓綾肢體接觸的人;謝綠也不討厭賴梓綾,畢竟神與畜的女性成員(葛蕾絲和MIO),年紀都差太多。賴梓綾在,謝綠覺得自己多了個妹妹。294Please respect copyright.PENANAnd6Li9TD28
294Please respect copyright.PENANANK0ZBGxkbR
「……。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAgm7wknCkt3
294Please respect copyright.PENANArzShfktSca
想到妹妹,謝綠內心一沉。她真正的妹妹──謝頤,自從謝綠加入神與畜,就沒收到她的消息,人也不在謝氏。謝綠一直很愧疚,雖然是她保住謝頤的命,但對妹妹而言,「活下來」是否,才是更痛苦的事?294Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6jvu1WYLm
294Please respect copyright.PENANAjY6cNPKLdV
「抱歉,梓綾,我剛剛恍神了。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAupzWBUygMA
294Please respect copyright.PENANAgLkhZXNoWu
回到現實,賴梓綾一直用那雙淡紅色的眼睛、盯著謝綠的臉。謝綠恢復微笑,假裝沒事地說:「我的鞋子借妳,我們出發……!」294Please respect copyright.PENANA6xfMk5S0jb
294Please respect copyright.PENANASqBpmCGYgn
還沒說完,賴梓綾突然緊緊抱住她,謝綠嚇了一跳。294Please respect copyright.PENANAsgb6L7TrFR
294Please respect copyright.PENANAJQOLPdHF8t
「梓綾……?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAgqQqB4k0rf
294Please respect copyright.PENANA4ILhXmDdos
「……。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAZNHWnIaMQV
294Please respect copyright.PENANA66P4d2pbnG
賴梓綾輕輕拍她的背,謝綠這才意識到,賴梓綾是在安慰自己。294Please respect copyright.PENANAifYxzqJhh0
294Please respect copyright.PENANA30R8vNJfbL
謝綠的表情都沒變,還是被賴梓綾發現她在悲傷。這女孩對人的情緒,似乎比一般人敏感,觀察力也很強。她給謝綠擁抱,因為就賴梓綾的理解,抱抱是一件「開心」的事。294Please respect copyright.PENANAS90JPPEOnE
294Please respect copyright.PENANA0k7GKvr6Rs
──也是很溫暖的事。294Please respect copyright.PENANAnXAnJW6VBc
294Please respect copyright.PENANAk6Y07TEBZL
「謝謝妳,梓綾,我沒事了。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAP7rVyzrPFe
294Please respect copyright.PENANAu312j1z3PW
「……。」294Please respect copyright.PENANATQWwkkPfPv
294Please respect copyright.PENANAFmdPPQz9r4
少女淡粉色的眼睛看著謝綠,確認她真的沒事,賴梓綾才放開謝綠。294Please respect copyright.PENANAzbyc6gOt3z
294Please respect copyright.PENANAR3dMq3cCDJ
「等這趟回來,我們再慢慢聊。」謝綠微笑,「走吧,梓綾,格格和李晴煬在等我們。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAe7tbK3s99r
294Please respect copyright.PENANAi4gIUFlB1M
賴梓綾點頭。謝綠從鞋櫃拿出一雙紫色的球鞋,給她換上。294Please respect copyright.PENANA2svOOU9PjE

2161年2月21日,下午四點,仙境大樓,八層294Please respect copyright.PENANAjSBsmsByZe
294Please respect copyright.PENANAIm0GxXN6DD
294Please respect copyright.PENANAU4tCZhLsc5
同一時間,李晴煬靠著牆、坐在地上,在謝綠房間外面,等兩位女士換衣服。294Please respect copyright.PENANAeHP7UaBJGi
294Please respect copyright.PENANAVEvCo12sXe
李晴煬很煩躁。要不是賴梓綾在裡面,李晴煬才不會來八樓──不是因為謝綠的房間在這,而是另一個人。294Please respect copyright.PENANAwCCagtrout
294Please respect copyright.PENANAGW0C57nO7L
「我可以坐你旁邊嗎?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAEybzu8UDpZ
294Please respect copyright.PENANAIMmIkq3a3z
說人人到。江云格從隔壁房間出來,看到李晴煬在這,竟然主動搭話,李晴煬不知道他在想什麼──因為戴著耳機。294Please respect copyright.PENANAGIvSH7X1T0
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcAo8oBZXJj
「隨便你。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAPCGH1t3ZsG
294Please respect copyright.PENANALMPoxDivAC
「謝謝。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAWD6L1hVR0v
294Please respect copyright.PENANA5EsmJKy2Us
說完,江云格也靠著牆、坐在地上。兩個風格迥異的男人坐在一塊兒,如果李晴煬是每天蹺課的問題學生,江云格就是發講義的助教,散發的氣質截然不同。李晴煬瞄了他一眼,江云格細長的眼睛、顏色很淡的棕色頭髮、天生上揚的嘴角,看起來就像……貓。294Please respect copyright.PENANAyt4EEQCkP6
294Please respect copyright.PENANADgzr12Zn5M
294Please respect copyright.PENANALeDE45uLzu
對,他是貓。294Please respect copyright.PENANAjNu8YJzfPN
294Please respect copyright.PENANANTKt0INbgk
謝綠會喜歡的那種貓。294Please respect copyright.PENANAEwCYVRJ7Tv
294Please respect copyright.PENANAYA3qFUKG9W
294Please respect copyright.PENANAztFzQlIlSf
「我臉上有什麼嗎?」發現李晴煬一直在看自己,江云格開口,打破沉默。294Please respect copyright.PENANAkefElrTw9N
294Please respect copyright.PENANAXVaE7l9K3R
「貓毛。」李晴煬這是實話,江云格臉上確實黏一根毛,應該是他自己的。294Please respect copyright.PENANAGQWsTReUWd
294Please respect copyright.PENANAhHCer1Wsje
「噢。」江云格摸了摸自己的臉,「在哪裡?」294Please respect copyright.PENANALPK4p8uwzw
294Please respect copyright.PENANAy68TSaKSYO
「右眼眼角。」李晴煬回答。294Please respect copyright.PENANAhBxgvPTYMO
294Please respect copyright.PENANA6mSsOJwTPc
「右眼……這裡嗎?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAlwV3nxyvtb
294Please respect copyright.PENANAjUDs4ErAoK
「不,是本大爺的右邊,你的左眼。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAheY9wMeLrz
294Please respect copyright.PENANAfFAE1uowVe
江云格伸手要撥,卻停下動作,將臉湊到李晴煬面前,跟他說:「你可以幫我拿掉嗎?謝謝。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAGMJaPgJ8qy
294Please respect copyright.PENANAu4ehVekEOW
一個男人的臉突然靠過來,李晴煬嚇一跳,用一種怪異的眼神看著江云格;江云格也盯著他,表情很期待,等李晴煬主動碰自己。294Please respect copyright.PENANAy1OsYU1vaa
294Please respect copyright.PENANAia1t5ro2R5
「……。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAdOBzeBfBFx
294Please respect copyright.PENANAX4LQOhxxLz
說實在,他們平常交集不多,又因為謝綠的事,李晴煬對江云格沒有好感;但江云格相反,他似乎對李晴煬很感興趣,好奇心使然,也是貓的天性。294Please respect copyright.PENANAEiaGfnzCZv
294Please respect copyright.PENANACZQilQSbq1
莫名其妙地,李晴煬伸手,幫江云格拿掉臉上的貓毛,江云格看起來很高興。294Please respect copyright.PENANAbllgwNnBve
294Please respect copyright.PENANA1itGPSsGQ5
「謝謝。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAT9N8Ac9s6W
294Please respect copyright.PENANAn8PyTyj87q
江云格道謝,然而,李晴煬的回應不是「不客氣」,而是問他:「你腦子是不是有問題?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAR1PKB4olrS
294Please respect copyright.PENANAch1EZbVOMI
「我怎麼了?」江云格歪頭,顯然在裝傻。294Please respect copyright.PENANAR7ww1U6vJt
294Please respect copyright.PENANAkGop0hA4dx
「本大爺曾經,害死一隻名字跟你很像的貓。」李晴煬說:「貓能透過嗅覺分辨敵人。本大爺怎麼聞,都是你的敵人吧?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAwGCzTkgdyQ
294Please respect copyright.PENANALjfFrsrV89
江云格瞇著眼睛笑,看起來更像貓了。294Please respect copyright.PENANAv0d0Ks20BI
294Please respect copyright.PENANAaenprOK5qP
「李晴煬,你誤會了。」江云格說:「你的味道不是敵人,而是『根本沒有』。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAUREODZ0ENG
294Please respect copyright.PENANAL4i7ynZr86
答案出乎預料,「沒有?」李晴煬問他:「我身上沒有味道?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAyPFJVNy175
294Please respect copyright.PENANAgwwzGUxOmR
「是的,就這個距離,我什麼也聞不到。」江云格又把臉湊過來,「這麼近才可以,只有一點。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAhnyivl9w9A
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcFHfXn5bFx
「……。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAvDoEXGub8p
294Please respect copyright.PENANAbjT6Fl0BPb
聽到這,李晴煬第一次對江云格產生興趣。平常躲在謝綠旁邊、看起來很乖的貓,其實很聰明,也很狡猾。貓毛是江云格故意的,他只是想找理由,近距離聞李晴煬。294Please respect copyright.PENANA9l4xtWXZeS
294Please respect copyright.PENANATShHKRKewt
「哼,有趣。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAt7Vpxff8X5
294Please respect copyright.PENANAJkehHK4L1G
說完,李晴煬的身體開始溶化──黑色的汙泥從他的臉流下來,李晴煬成年人的外表消失,變回十六歲的漂亮少年,也是2161年,李門小少爺應有的模樣。294Please respect copyright.PENANAtm3Ewn14pY
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9UKaY56Zg
沒錯,早在謝氏、白玫瑰被白絃喚醒,李晴煬和MIO的「交換」就已經解除。他後來的外表,都是用黑色汙泥「做」出來的。真正的他被一層汙泥緊緊包覆,所以江云格「聞不到」。294Please respect copyright.PENANA5f5tpWGCrG
294Please respect copyright.PENANAlwV1mrXNb9
「這樣呢?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAntk6NoZdDZ
294Please respect copyright.PENANAlORuadx7x7
聲音也不一樣,本尊李晴煬的音頻較高,典型的美少年聲線。294Please respect copyright.PENANARpJMhAgZjr
294Please respect copyright.PENANAzO6HZLq9Dp
「確實,是敵人的味道。」江云格實話實說:「我聞到花香。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAMMCCPtrU08
294Please respect copyright.PENANAcAt9lfAoGJ
「花香?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAvEzjdHOA6j
294Please respect copyright.PENANAX4r6jqZe5v
「淡淡的,好像是玫瑰。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAwiKV1U0n7A
294Please respect copyright.PENANA5VqQ5Gj2x5
「……。」294Please respect copyright.PENANA2CS5FtpMdx
294Please respect copyright.PENANA0OprauDt4Y
李晴煬陷入沉默,似乎正在思考。這時,換完衣服的謝綠和賴梓綾從房間出來,兩人看到李晴煬這副模樣,都嚇一大跳。294Please respect copyright.PENANARATYeALk71
294Please respect copyright.PENANAbV71Gr0qxx
「李…李晴煬?」294Please respect copyright.PENANArCplpCzo8z
294Please respect copyright.PENANAou81PbaiBU
謝綠的記憶彷彿被拉回小時候、與李晴煬認識的聖誕晚宴。李門的小少爺已經不是男孩,而是少年──黑色整齊的短髮,穿著白色的襯衫和牛仔褲,個子比江云格矮,不變的是那雙血紅色的眼睛,和那張漂亮的臉。294Please respect copyright.PENANAAYc6zJCpvU
294Please respect copyright.PENANAZYnRtMe0Bl
謝綠問旁邊的江云格:「發生什麼事?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAcbTdDpEV5z
294Please respect copyright.PENANAWkN4oq7stG
江云格言簡意賅:「本體露出。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAwjIOfs1nR4
294Please respect copyright.PENANA7dSRN4g4QK
「本體?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAfxKE5eDdU1
294Please respect copyright.PENANAAU6Xu9fanZ
「他平常的外表,是用水果塔做出來的,和MIO沒有關係。」294Please respect copyright.PENANA3IAijOJodp
294Please respect copyright.PENANAPYkPUCWsUi
這件事,除了李晴煬和MIO,及和MIO心智共享的李博洋,其他人都不知道,所以李晴煬覺得江云格聰明,竟然透過味道,發現他深藏多年的秘密。294Please respect copyright.PENANA93YLuEA6Oy
294Please respect copyright.PENANAnMDrZwZK3L
「……。」294Please respect copyright.PENANArjCPV5Owgx
294Please respect copyright.PENANAwr2E1ipwCW
賴梓綾也很震驚。因為水果塔,她還是能認出李晴煬,一見如故的感覺比之前更強。賴梓綾摸著胸口,有個聲音在自己體內吶喊、似乎想對李晴煬說什麼,但她聽不清楚。294Please respect copyright.PENANAHJMKklgWsi
294Please respect copyright.PENANAT1DjOqQCb2
「本少爺要用這個模樣去夏家。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAaZ6yL3SruX
294Please respect copyright.PENANAA7yEhsos67
李晴煬終於說話,用跟平常很不一樣的聲音,和不一樣的自稱詞。294Please respect copyright.PENANAdZZr1gMJni
294Please respect copyright.PENANAb9Fm9dmdC2
「你們先去停車場。」李晴煬說:「本少爺回房間一趟,拿個東西。」294Please respect copyright.PENANALr9vlDGCh8
294Please respect copyright.PENANANrvaJTOZtU
「東西?」江云格很好奇,「是什麼?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAgesXio7nrV
294Please respect copyright.PENANAYpIIrbXFGN
「信。」李晴煬也不隱瞞,告訴他們:「我爸生前,寫了一封信給我。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAa23AaPKKT0
294Please respect copyright.PENANASOsDVJFLWm
「……爸爸?」294Please respect copyright.PENANA7t5t5NmIGJ
294Please respect copyright.PENANAFmKkYLcUdh
李晴煬先離開,同時,謝綠聽到李晴煬的話,似乎想起什麼,表情變得很微妙。294Please respect copyright.PENANANiEEsoKelL
294Please respect copyright.PENANAAj4cgZciPw
「小綠,妳怎麼了?」江云格發現謝綠的異常,問她:「妳見過李晴煬的父親?」294Please respect copyright.PENANAa6jXlRbXVa
294Please respect copyright.PENANAAEUtqen4BK
「不,李門二爺很早就過世了,我父親參加過他的喪禮。」謝綠回想:「我記得名字是……李康?但從喪禮回來,我大哥說,父親講了很奇怪的話。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAJjjH9CuslE
294Please respect copyright.PENANAwAs84jcLW4
「奇怪的話?」江云格問。294Please respect copyright.PENANA1b7hxj4F0n
294Please respect copyright.PENANAWRzl4591eI
「他說:『李康之所以會瘋、會死,因為他在反抗紅心傑克。』」294Please respect copyright.PENANAgfbtBY0ltZ
294Please respect copyright.PENANAgU32mukaJT
江云格覺得奇怪,謝照顏不喜歡李門,卻願意參加李康的喪禮。身為反高派的謝氏,認為李康和其他李門人士「不一樣」,為什麼?294Please respect copyright.PENANAQAuEKv9m8V
294Please respect copyright.PENANA4NhymqHXSZ
「過了很多年,大哥又和父親聊到李康,父親講了一樣的話,還說李康『成功了』。大哥問他什麼意思,父親的回答是……一個人名。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAm81PWgNQ4E
294Please respect copyright.PENANAIXSp33SZjU
那時候的自己很小,謝綠不知道父親說的人是誰;如今想來,她覺得很詭異、很古怪,全身雞皮疙瘩都上來,事情越來越離奇。294Please respect copyright.PENANAw4i1r8iuDe
294Please respect copyright.PENANAaajRCwDBQ2
294Please respect copyright.PENANA0l7kv3aXeZ
「『李晴煬』。」294Please respect copyright.PENANAsVyLjcd7r3
294Please respect copyright.PENANAB0CLTo60NS
294Please respect copyright.PENANAEc6J1wmdsa
謝綠沒有記錯。她非常確定,就是這個名字。294Please respect copyright.PENANAT99ZlhxvlB
294Please respect copyright.PENANAKH6cWemWzV
294Please respect copyright.PENANAHyMRjVVoBC
