在午前的猛陽照耀下,凌亂的足跡遍佈沙灘。昨天屹立於此的茅屋已經全數拆除,木條一部份舖在地上,砌出巨大的SOS字樣;另一部份充當木柴,升起一溜黑煙劃過清澄的藍色天空。322Please respect copyright.PENANAAcPhvm8lgY
322Please respect copyright.PENANADRJqpHOsXb
SOS不遠處的樹蔭下,祐嘉屈膝而坐,她看著掌上的黑色小塊,回想昨天初秋的說話:322Please respect copyright.PENANAEjI4iuwKsW
322Please respect copyright.PENANA4lftsmoZT3
「有人在監視我們。雖然不知道監視者的目的,但我們漂流到島上這回事,並不是一場意外。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAxTObiYzCPP
322Please respect copyright.PENANAebbaOeTBx5
「要不要跟大小姐報告,是你的選擇。緊記要謹慎行事。因為,我們不能確定『發現被監視』這回事,是不是監視者們容許的。」322Please respect copyright.PENANARCn9NNWfhD
322Please respect copyright.PENANAzOA0piJw7v
「我會繼續往島裡探索,你們不用費神找我,有新發現我會再回來。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAclFFttJHES
322Please respect copyright.PENANAV7DBWOlkK1
「能量飲品,我拿兩罐囉,當作阻止跳崖的報酬。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAeJhWQsc9Wa
322Please respect copyright.PENANAhGUCkahsM9
針孔攝錄機在祐嘉的掌心翻來覆去,動作毫無意義,可是祐嘉覺得一旦停下來,就代表自己必須下定決心。322Please respect copyright.PENANAu3HBek3y6c
322Please respect copyright.PENANALXkxIq65hs
把現況告知大小姐是板上釘釘的事情,祐嘉並不質疑其必要性。需要煩惱的點是,如何避過監視,安全地進行報告。322Please respect copyright.PENANA97nyDVRy2p
322Please respect copyright.PENANAGfrB1M20V5
沙灘環境空曠,理論上很難設置監視器,應為最佳的對話場地。然而,昨晚開始,大小姐決定將沙灘的據點移師至廢城裡,城中地形複雜,有太多看不見的角落,監視者的視線根本防不勝防。
能夠不驚動監視者,態度自然的把大小姐引到沙灘來,自己的頭腦真的能想出如此慎密的計劃嗎?322Please respect copyright.PENANAkZu9mzyiFr
322Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9ihUClZm5
換作是Hina會如何應對呢?322Please respect copyright.PENANAqVe6S3PQ1Y
322Please respect copyright.PENANAzzZT8EvX9G
擅於社交的她一定能設計完美說辭,快想想,Hina會怎樣說?322Please respect copyright.PENANAACZMDZXwnZ
322Please respect copyright.PENANAOoXMevZYMa
踏過沙子的腳步聲從背後傳來,把祐嘉的心神拉回現實。她將針孔攝錄機收入口袋,轉頭面向步聲的主人……322Please respect copyright.PENANAY4ok3xMfbi
322Please respect copyright.PENANAVKVBRPb5i9
人工心臟停頓了兩秒……322Please respect copyright.PENANAQlvrsL1cNn
322Please respect copyright.PENANAvYLzrdblqc
黑色少女的影子蓋過祐嘉的臉,鏡片後銳利的眼光直穿她的靈魂之窗。
322Please respect copyright.PENANAITuHmSpQkd
「紅楓。」祐嘉開聲才發覺自己的喉嚨在顫抖,「找我有事嗎?」322Please respect copyright.PENANA56nXwsYsnn
322Please respect copyright.PENANASq9iygl6zc
「我不是叫紅楓,那是我原型的名字。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAY1EjT5N0Fh
322Please respect copyright.PENANA1KTN8aGX0x
「對不起。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAKWVHVOxouX
322Please respect copyright.PENANA91NWKvGKK3
祐嘉反射性的道歉,語氣謙卑得連自己都感到陌生。322Please respect copyright.PENANAIKvz209roG
322Please respect copyright.PENANAxsTtlfDx0F
「現在,一個人嗎?」她說。322Please respect copyright.PENANAxSpajXBJoB
322Please respect copyright.PENANA0m9vXJEKoq
「只有我一個。」嘴巴著了魔似的。322Please respect copyright.PENANAHHhvZsocJm
322Please respect copyright.PENANAd1aUMA8Ip9
「太好了,沒有人會打擾我們。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAvkfd6Tnaa6
322Please respect copyright.PENANAwVCedykt1o
憑空出現一個正方形將紅楓的臉框住。驚訝的眨眼後,祐嘉便意識到那是只有自己看見的電子視窗。鮮豔紅字顯示在正方形旁邊,三角形内的驚嘆號刺眼地閃爍。322Please respect copyright.PENANA3kCflwZAuJ

建議:遠離,報警
那是距今二十多年前,一個連原型祐嘉都未出生的時代,發生了一件極為轟動的兇殺案。一男一女於單位内慘遭殺害,兇手是男死者的未婚妻——紅楓。322Please respect copyright.PENANAnYdCFgKyji
322Please respect copyright.PENANAmXmWZ2vVXk
她的行兇動機是男方出軌,女死者則是小三。紅楓在審訊中坦誠認罪,最後因為行兇手法殘暴而被判死刑。紅楓放棄上訴,一年後於監獄内接受注射死刑。其名字像墨汁滴入一缸清水般,隨時間丟淡就此被世人遺忘,直到半年後……322Please respect copyright.PENANAo4sjXV8XKU
322Please respect copyright.PENANAxVKuDBcvrP
發生了全球首宗仿真人殺人事件,死者是一男一女,兇手是男方的仿真情人,靈魂倒模的原型是紅楓。322Please respect copyright.PENANAyuvDWTPFDH
322Please respect copyright.PENANAPSS7Fj4ktD
原來,紅楓在犯下駭人聽聞的謀殺以前,曾為籌備結婚費用而進行靈魂倒模。初代仿真情人使用的靈魂倒模為五人,紅楓就是當中的『小鳥依人』型號。
發生紅楓事件時,正是阿馬茲科技公司初推出仿真情人的時期。為避免影響公眾對仿真情人的信心,阿馬茲科技沒有回收紅楓系列,反而刻意隱瞞實情,導致紅楓系列被大量生產。322Please respect copyright.PENANAlRsFIFcOw8
322Please respect copyright.PENANARpQBECplvo
隨時間經過,類似的謀殺事件持續發生。直到政府司法部起訴阿馬茲科技並進行強制回收,因紅楓系列而受嚴重肢體傷害或死亡人數高達八十人,紅楓系列對認證情人的殺害率為四成。
以前,紅楓是只存在於文字裡的人物,被害人也只是籠統的數字。連身處的年代也不同,活在生死線對岸的人。現在,那個書中人就站在面前,平面資訊徹底化成了立體現實。322Please respect copyright.PENANAC8PAO3pAbh
322Please respect copyright.PENANAOoQgMYlMwW
紅楓雙臂低垂,木訥的站在兩步距離外。祐嘉的手不自然的往半空揮動,試圖關閉警告視窗的舉動引起了紅楓注意。322Please respect copyright.PENANAV6oqMtSidU
322Please respect copyright.PENANAX9bgxfr9qD
「關閉視窗的選項在手心。」她提示道。322Please respect copyright.PENANAUTPJqwkdT7
322Please respect copyright.PENANAZkLdUziGdC
祐嘉動作生硬的按下掌心内的按鈕,紅楓臉上的正方形終於消失。322Please respect copyright.PENANAfarzWy3L4M
322Please respect copyright.PENANAer1RN0kTZR
「聽說只要我接近到三米内,你們的系統便會開始警報,真是個著重安全的設計。」紅楓的語氣平坦不帶半分感情,無法得知此話到底出於自嘲還是抱怨。322Please respect copyright.PENANA7jhVc3KCEI
322Please respect copyright.PENANAtjOZ4sXP66
「是啦,紅光閃個不停很惱人,謝謝你。」祐嘉調整表情,模仿Hina的交際式笑容。然而,從紅楓的眉毛得知,她的模仿相當拙劣。322Please respect copyright.PENANAEolZADxNib
322Please respect copyright.PENANAhIRb8MImIw
「找我有事嗎?」在氣氛更加尷尬前,她趕緊推進話題。322Please respect copyright.PENANAkFA9Bvv73I
322Please respect copyright.PENANAgAXzjy7Q7X
「有問題要問你,」她說,「你喜歡Hina嗎?」322Please respect copyright.PENANAAkSGhiXHAX
322Please respect copyright.PENANAuty0zj1Yol
氣氛由尷尬轉變為難以理解。322Please respect copyright.PENANAJVwXR7LGuT
322Please respect copyright.PENANAQZXYeSxrUv
「哈?」322Please respect copyright.PENANAGu3Nh4JimO
322Please respect copyright.PENANA0OTTwCyhzd
相同的問題假如出自櫻或安德魯,甚至是大小姐之口,祐嘉應該會原地爆炸,尷尬得無地自容吧。然而,現在祐嘉的心脈成了水平線,嘴巴如上水的魚般半開半合。322Please respect copyright.PENANAHRVd1Lu8gp
322Please respect copyright.PENANAlEySJ15o5z
「我的咬字發音不清晰嗎?」紅楓語氣平淡,更顯字句的壓迫力,「我再問一次,你喜歡Hina嗎?」322Please respect copyright.PENANASBybA12Sig
322Please respect copyright.PENANApowMHF4IOg
祐嘉並非『不懂』回答,她是『不想』回答。感覺無論承認與否,都等同把自己最脆弱的弱點置於刀鋒上。322Please respect copyright.PENANASwQIxJqLoV
322Please respect copyright.PENANAiq22SnZH2d
她直視紅楓銳利的眼睛,嘗試看透隱藏於瞳孔背後的意圖。她不敢相信自己正在跟殺人犯對視,就像一場眼力的拔河,只要一刻移開視線便輸了,等於向對方示弱。322Please respect copyright.PENANAittXlkC8kY
322Please respect copyright.PENANAmPhNVIV19o
紅楓的眼睛烏黑深邃,與白皙的眼眶形成強烈對比。線條鮮明的睫毛像長矛列陣,充滿了敵意和侵略性。水珠在眼角凝聚,一條河流劃過了臉頰……322Please respect copyright.PENANA2ARLhStLnQ
322Please respect copyright.PENANA9H6l2h9ZLc
她在哭泣……322Please respect copyright.PENANA0ruXT3eiZF
322Please respect copyright.PENANAB3MH924aB9
紅楓跪到祐嘉面前,緊緊的抱住了她。也許是黑色水手服特別吸熱,讓這個擁抱十分温暖。322Please respect copyright.PENANAVN8lciE7fC
322Please respect copyright.PENANAsI73UpeZYG
「那個…這是…甚麼?」祐嘉不知雙手該往那處擺,使姿勢十分彆扭。322Please respect copyright.PENANAEV7x2U3kc8
322Please respect copyright.PENANAbVxWPBZyOv
祐嘉慢慢的,試探性的把手降到紅楓背上。她瘦削的身體在顫抖,下巴少氣無力的壓住她的肩膀,在她的耳邊飲泣。322Please respect copyright.PENANAURKfc1BvFI
322Please respect copyright.PENANAhFkm417zyX
「等等,為甚麼要哭?」說話聽回祐嘉耳中,她才發覺自己在哽咽。322Please respect copyright.PENANAMGNBIjeWnD
322Please respect copyright.PENANAh6LaYbQUgM
「為甚麼要哭?」這次,她是問自己。322Please respect copyright.PENANAlgYm4jXxoD
322Please respect copyright.PENANA3B5ENHtuHD
她仰起脖子,好像就能避免淚水突破表面張力。然而,當熱流劃過臉頰,界線被衝破了。322Please respect copyright.PENANAhClPjjdhkE
322Please respect copyright.PENANAHEj9eO1fOO
祐嘉放聲嘶叫,十指握起兩個布團,紅楓的上衣也跟著歪斜變形。322Please respect copyright.PENANAJx69Aphamp
322Please respect copyright.PENANAgRmvpwwYx2
「我知道哭是沒用的……!所以我不哭……!我想要保持理性,我們才認識不到半天…何來的感情基礎讓我崩潰啊……!」322Please respect copyright.PENANAVwpuNkNbZ7
322Please respect copyright.PENANAkVFQMZk0Br
去他的理性……322Please respect copyright.PENANAEVZWHh17uj
322Please respect copyright.PENANAJnkpe8Q3dp
「好奇怪啊!我們是女生啊!但我真的好喜歡Hina!我好想她能復活!即使把我忘記了,我也想和她再次成為朋友!再次成為認證情人!」322Please respect copyright.PENANAsBbfGkjMMm
322Please respect copyright.PENANATpodytHsWO
紅楓輕輕拍背,抱著哆嗦的祐嘉,「盡情哭吧,沒有人看見。全部發洩出來,我會接受你的一切。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAijaOOdTchf
322Please respect copyright.PENANA77B3fY4sPo
到底過了多久?沒有人去計算。
也許是十分鐘?或許半個鐘?
不知道。322Please respect copyright.PENANA74iiJSJWJB
322Please respect copyright.PENANAYP1BowNExL
只是,對祐嘉而言彷如隔世。322Please respect copyright.PENANAEnkkJfdwAB
322Please respect copyright.PENANAyYkzXorih3
斷開的理智線重新連接,祐嘉放開手中的布團。紅楓也鬆開了環抱,向後退半個身。322Please respect copyright.PENANAMP7qG2xhfo
322Please respect copyright.PENANATycmiVMFWs
祐嘉看著紅楓肩上一大片淚痕,罪疚油然而生。322Please respect copyright.PENANAilf2odD03w
322Please respect copyright.PENANASAJvnS2OOy
「抱歉。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAWyA1JVRQdr
322Please respect copyright.PENANA4loCt8vCCl
「不要緊。」她拉住衣領,整理皺巴巴的衣服。322Please respect copyright.PENANAuBpbiMraVr
322Please respect copyright.PENANAFSzxwiTCgf
祐嘉脫下眼鏡,狼狽的搓揉眼睛將淚水抹去,「Hina說的對,你不是壞人,謝謝。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAilYoqHpsh7
322Please respect copyright.PENANAK96axL5GiY
紅楓的表情帶著一點意外,「她,是唯一願意直視我的人。對我這種人,她依然釋出善意。因此,我會為她的離開感到傷心難過。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAVMNmcHP342
322Please respect copyright.PENANAGavZ0Ml7z2
「抱歉。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAKS4owen343
322Please respect copyright.PENANA5CnMkkHHLL
「為了甚麼?」322Please respect copyright.PENANA43cEBzGjha
322Please respect copyright.PENANAvYFUyFE2Ao
祐嘉的手還在抖,害她不能把眼鏡扶正。鏡框歪歪的架在紅潤的鼻梁上。「我誤信謠言以為你是可怕的人,剛才保持警戒的自己簡直像笨蛋一樣。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAkoMRGpU7Bp
322Please respect copyright.PENANAQUygLDnwJ7
紅楓沒有表現明顯的表情,她說,「從昌那兒聽到關於我的事,看來我的原型和同系列的仿真人鬧得滿城風雨。我並非要辯護,只是,她們對我而言都是別的個體,比較像母親和姊妹的感覺。也許我們的思考模式相同,但不代表我會做出和她們一樣的行徑。」322Please respect copyright.PENANA5wFJNyTfxJ
322Please respect copyright.PENANAjwhRbH1T0O
「我相信你。在政府執行強制回收時,有不少紅楓系列沒有犯罪紀錄,民間也有不少抗議聲音。我相信你是好的紅楓。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAIxRj1fJA0k
322Please respect copyright.PENANAulPfUznkhm
「好的紅楓……」她咬住下唇,表現出明顯的焦慮,「難說,有時我也不相信自己。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAS2J4f5A9Uo
322Please respect copyright.PENANAll0sMZZMBS
祐嘉被弄糊塗了,難道紅楓此行的目的不是破除誤解建立信任嗎?「甚麼意思?」322Please respect copyright.PENANAvAOOe8KPo7
322Please respect copyright.PENANAZgrxHtWBj8
「我的屬性是『恐怖情人』,是,有的男人就好這一味。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAPXScygVLKu
322Please respect copyright.PENANAqBF5opf14f
「慢著,紅楓系列不是停產了嗎?」322Please respect copyright.PENANAfyQZ9xC9qV
322Please respect copyright.PENANAAFwi3zBvLJ
「只是換成地下生產罷了,『禁忌的仿真情人』是鮮明的綽頭,男人肯為此出高價。萬一被抓到,只要說是盗版的便行。話說回來,你認為恐怖情人的關鍵是甚麼?你可以老實說。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAIFlLFJorPm
322Please respect copyright.PENANAZn92erAK9K
「為情傷人?為了獨佔愛人不在乎偏激手段……」祐嘉越說越小聲。322Please respect copyright.PENANAb30kHUIk70
322Please respect copyright.PENANA9BsCkwNKqd
紅楓沒有表情,應該沒有生氣。322Please respect copyright.PENANAv34rXmgGUI
322Please respect copyright.PENANAlSNt8b3DYD
「說對了一半,關鍵點是『情人』的存在。缺乏迷戀對象的我,無法發揮本性。打個比喻,玩心理測驗時沒有符合自己的選項,唯有勉強選一個比較喜歡的,這樣。我作為『恐怖情人』的一面沒有被啟動,就像困在蛹裡不能羽化的……嗯,飛蛾。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAU5bXTNwz49
322Please respect copyright.PENANAjxO8W9LYH6
「必須解除大家的誤會才行。」祐嘉主動拉起紅楓的手,「把你的情況告訴大小姐吧,她很明白事理,一定會願意幫你解釋,讓大家接納你。」322Please respect copyright.PENANA8GCvL25WbQ
322Please respect copyright.PENANANYOZqFGbsG
「明白事理嗎……」紅楓臉上閃過一個表情,轉瞬即逝,那是不屑的冷笑,「就這樣吧,她們是值得信賴的人。你無須在意我的感受,我習慣孤獨。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAwMaUcBS4EU
322Please respect copyright.PENANALhneqXvRwP
祐嘉全身一抖,好像人工心臟被針扎到,「大小姐跟你說過甚麼嗎?」322Please respect copyright.PENANAYmhxq4KTFP
322Please respect copyright.PENANAG7G0geN1v0
「並非出自她口,是她的僕人說的。答應我,不要因此心存芥蒂,她們是真心想幫助你們的。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAaopg7Whgi7

紅楓不可思議的看著祐嘉,「你在生氣嗎?」322Please respect copyright.PENANAjnp5r9JN4C

「是啊!不行嗎!」322Please respect copyright.PENANAm3QXiOiLDu

322Please respect copyright.PENANAiWrTLxyCI6
「祐嘉,我心領你的好意,但請不要跟她們對質。她們是高等仿真人,擁有全部原型時的記憶。也許,我的姊妹曾直接或間接傷害過她們。在弄清楚事情的原由前,你不應該先入為主胡亂批判。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAgVozTyKhWW
322Please respect copyright.PENANAliPPEXSdfm
祐嘉搔搔鼻子,怒火被澆熄而有點失去方向,「既然本人不在乎,我也沒有生氣的基礎了。不過,假如以後被找麻煩,我一定會站在你那邊。」322Please respect copyright.PENANAjwT6cgVz4k
322Please respect copyright.PENANAFJOHQ918pQ

不明物體把紅楓的視線拉向下,她伸手於沙地上撿起顯眼的黑色方塊。322Please respect copyright.PENANAEgHYirYyly
