白光背後隱約看見一片天空,我眨動眼睛,嘗試適應刺眼的豔陽。飽和的噪音巨響貫穿耳道,吹拂而過的風要將毛囊連根拔起,衝擊五感的刺激在大腦内炸開,頭殼像顆不斷充氣的汽球,中心爆發出欲裂的劇痛……508Please respect copyright.PENANAXtz4QWSRXP

「不用勉強自己立即起來,閉上眼睛深呼吸,身體盡量放鬆。」女聲温柔的說,「可以慢慢來,不用急。」508Please respect copyright.PENANAvEUZoFEDgx
508Please respect copyright.PENANA6Hn93Ibz1q
我聽從指示,閉上刺痛的眼睛。深吸氣,呼氣,感覺到胸膛內心臟的脈動。衝擊感官的資訊開始得到整理,我聽到海浪的節奏,空中信天翁的嗚叫,拂過臉頰的咸腥氣味。508Please respect copyright.PENANAzG7o5hxlA3

我坐立起來,緩緩張開眼睛,映入眼簾是一幅海天一色的油畫。我環視周圍看到了金黃色的沙灘,自己坐於一副像棺材的機械裝置之中。我在教科書裡看過,那是專為仿真人設計的維生倉。508Please respect copyright.PENANABzDclNF0c6
508Please respect copyright.PENANAjhbkiSHRvN
仿真人理應在服務站被喚醒,專用的黑房有隔絕外界資訊的功能,以防過量感官訊號損壞傳感器。日正當中的豔陽把頭皮曬得熾熱,這兒怎麼看也是戶外,還是充滿感官刺激的沙灘,絕非適合喚醒的地方。難道仿真人也會造夢嗎?508Please respect copyright.PENANAmxzWW3eRiA

「身體好點了嗎?」508Please respect copyright.PENANAUbkL5nZ0be
508Please respect copyright.PENANAWHFPWAczvi
我順著聲音望去,說話來自可愛的少女。咖啡色波浪般的長曲卷髮,一雙明亮的紫色大眼睛,眼簾上畫著濃厚的眼妝,散發出時尚氣質。黑色吊帶一字肩上衣,淺藍色百摺裙,一副清涼的裝扮。然而,這身衣裝和沙灘格格不入。508Please respect copyright.PENANAg0KZa8jm00
508Please respect copyright.PENANADjSmyajClD
少女眨動大眼睛,翹長的睫毛像會發出靜電。察覺到她在等待我的回應,我點頭,帶著不確定的「嗯。」一聲。508Please respect copyright.PENANAj68yhmJiY3
508Please respect copyright.PENANAy6qasqUioi
「我的名字是Hina,H-I-N-A,Hina。」少女水潤的雙唇一開一合的說。508Please respect copyright.PENANAaGbxWwWbjy
508Please respect copyright.PENANAXKo92TfJRM
名字從腦中浮現,「祐嘉,保祐的『祐』;嘉許的 『嘉』,我是祐嘉。」這真的是我的名字嗎?雖然本能上並未感覺到違和感,但這也可能是廠商給我設定的『新名字』。也罷,反正我也沒有作出懷疑的根據。508Please respect copyright.PENANAGiuhK2vcvN
508Please respect copyright.PENANA55n8X1Nvb3
「祐嘉小姐,你好,請多多指教。」Hina微笑,大眼睛向下一瞥,白淨的臉蛋急速紅潤起來,好像有煙會從頭頂冒出。508Please respect copyright.PENANAW9XNfYfYWd
508Please respect copyright.PENANAcyXTqHuOY6
我低頭,發現自己一絲不掛。508Please respect copyright.PENANArEgk334YzW
508Please respect copyright.PENANAh5aA7IpDrz
反射性的伸手遮掩,發自內心的尖叫衝出喉嚨,被我的尖叫嚇到的Hina也跟著大叫。508Please respect copyright.PENANATfip8xfz3S
508Please respect copyright.PENANA0t7bjfJdvk
「對不起!」Hina掩住眼睛跑開,於數步的距離外蹲下。「前方的匣子裡有替換的衣服,請換好後再叫我!」508Please respect copyright.PENANA9FfdVgi8Yp
508Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZK3JPpF58
維生倉的末端有一個突起的手把,拉開匣子内裡放著防水膠袋密封的包裹。
「不能看啊!」我大聲喊道。508Please respect copyright.PENANAQYeLNTjYYd
508Please respect copyright.PENANAPNahWHe1OR
「我發誓絕對不會偷看!」508Please respect copyright.PENANAY7ZW6I4HzR
508Please respect copyright.PENANAOj6oC7lccA
我拆開包裝,倒出内容物。
白色短袖襯衫配以海藍色的衣領……508Please respect copyright.PENANAZJTOoeitzS
508Please respect copyright.PENANAZRGTuG3UKY
及膝長的海藍色百摺裙……508Please respect copyright.PENANAvWq4nPBEvs
508Please respect copyright.PENANAa0kHVDT7Tn
水手服,開玩笑嗎?508Please respect copyright.PENANA126F0RUjri
508Please respect copyright.PENANAdMmrgKd71f
包裡還有一個鏡盒,打開後鏡中映照著一張熟悉的臉孔。藍色的眼睛,精緻的五官,兩條黑色麻花辮低垂在肩上。508Please respect copyright.PENANAW9pb0BFzFH
508Please respect copyright.PENANAAjSX7gB7pG
「祐嘉小姐,請不要穿鞋和襪,在沙灘走路會進沙子的。」508Please respect copyright.PENANAEFnIFSvqsy
508Please respect copyright.PENANAOjWM8iSodf
「我知道了。」508Please respect copyright.PENANAB0CHH9GEon
508Please respect copyright.PENANALKxmwDYtst
沒有選擇的餘地,我無奈地穿上唯一的衣服,看著鏡中的自己,有一股莫名其妙的違和感。我再三翻找,於包裝底下找到一副厚框眼鏡,戴上後感覺好多了,或許是原型的我留下的習慣吧。508Please respect copyright.PENANApWGucC6ViA
508Please respect copyright.PENANAMadrB77y5e
認真一說,到現時為止我都沒有自己已為非人的自覺。電影裡常有機械人以為自己是人類的情節,但是,也有人類以為自己是機械人的發展。我低頭看著一對手,白裡透紅的玉臂底下甚至能看見靜脈,假如割開這吹彈可破的皮膚,到底會露出蝦肉色的肌肉束還是五顏六色的電線呢?508Please respect copyright.PENANA3sUxbXsfYb
508Please respect copyright.PENANAbSQJcWUzhI
我要的答案就寫在左手手心上,皮膚下透出白色的七劃管顯示現在是正午十二時二分,輕點後畫面一轉顯示電量為99%,再點一次後又轉回時鐘。我的確不是人類了。508Please respect copyright.PENANATbZnyJ2l6a
508Please respect copyright.PENANA8nadCbsWao
「祐嘉小姐,你換好了嗎?有沒有需要幫忙的地方?」Hina閉著眼睛,伸出雙手摸路,動作笨拙的走過來。508Please respect copyright.PENANAQZgm5cOlGW
508Please respect copyright.PENANAQrJtQTL2Yo
「我換好了!不要閉眼走路!很危險的!」508Please respect copyright.PENANAaPvfC6tArs
508Please respect copyright.PENANAMu3gJ2sHjm
Hina在維生倉前停下,上下打量我,害我感到雙頰一陣滾熱。508Please respect copyright.PENANAbW4TE3yhO6
508Please respect copyright.PENANAwjLYvFP6oM
「又不是我想穿成這樣。」我抱胸以示不滿。508Please respect copyright.PENANARkn3ysUktK
508Please respect copyright.PENANAULZqt8yydM
「對不起,只是,水手服和你太合襯了。」508Please respect copyright.PENANAjz13Z9Hytk
508Please respect copyright.PENANA86sisyAA9w
我分不清到底是陽光還是Hina的笑容比較熾熱。508Please respect copyright.PENANA2okB5in1d0
508Please respect copyright.PENANAF3zJKHQSqZ
「就算被稱讚,我也不會感到高興。」我別開臉,好像會被灼傷。508Please respect copyright.PENANA9xoLK3aMRZ
508Please respect copyright.PENANAqNM07JuWwA
「不要在意衣服的事,還有人的裝扮比你更誇張。」Hina搖動豎立的手掌說道。508Please respect copyright.PENANANMSn7QtA1C
508Please respect copyright.PENANAvjstQKoXes
「還有其他人嗎?」508Please respect copyright.PENANAcn3VqI5wDM
508Please respect copyright.PENANAmM1UO4rlHx
「加上我共五人,現在可能有更多。」Hina邀請的伸出左手,「祐嘉小姐,我帶你去和她們會合吧。」508Please respect copyright.PENANAWF6Fb9JG6F
508Please respect copyright.PENANA7e00kPZcU1
Hina的掌心同樣顯示著七劃管,她和我一樣是仿真人。508Please respect copyright.PENANAjtnQHPoF63
508Please respect copyright.PENANAwBSexPAqSx
「請叫祐嘉就好,加上專稱好像怪怪的。」我搭上Hina的手,跨步踏出了維生倉。508Please respect copyright.PENANASjF4AfpbbD
