99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOck4vigawS
他曾對她說過。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZbcWx4qw0
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlK6A1bq0k2
「別回溯，像逃避一樣。」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhLe7pbv3c
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bVtxBZs7x
所以她照做了、勇敢面對了，最後仍迎來這種慘澹的下場。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZ3tp3fJvK
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK24y95Yqa
那他呢？99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sBeG1VfH2
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC8wEKpwwO
不知不覺，又或者刻意假裝沒有發現內心角落的畏懼，他自那之後再也沒發動過個性。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbE0GZKeRj3
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPs6aNjUxKS
因為不敢面對，所以逃避了。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaH1QhtkfNO
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5qlbEYu22
明明對茉紅梨說過那樣的話，還真是可恥。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXFxDHNujJ
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelRPqF36iA
「茉紅梨她……在最後一定比你更害怕，是吧？」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ns7e2cbSN
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXw5RTtix7
所以春菅的這句話宛如在獨人臉上狠狠摑了一掌。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2hkty6kLK
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUCml4M9Et
是時候該回去了，至少要回到她面對死亡的恐懼以前的日子才行，她本就不該經歷那些，不應該的。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8A0GELL7na
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoqQODH1q7
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUhL3l03Sb
緊皺的眉頭抖動，緩緩睜眼，露出烏黑亮麗的眼眸子，獨人左顧右盼觀察所在位置。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOncc0Hcw8
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3knoQbsWai
他的個性有些不方便的地方，回到過去的目標年紀越大就越不能精準掌控力道。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0f4iTS0mL
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vf6ks5C8V
回到四歲時還可以選擇日期甚至時間，但回到仍是18歲的幾個月前，就會產生數日至數週的誤差。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOe5RUGwdw
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBqwm2vsK2
比如說現在，剛剛明明瞄準了「殺人」事發前一天的時間點發動個性，他卻發現牆上日曆的日期提前了整整一個月。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNRG0U7owp
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGV6mcCgnCn
不過無妨，此時的茉紅梨還活著，這才是獨人在意的。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaMEV1CRYn
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCQRpUdd3q
他正在房間書桌前，敞開的日記本吸引他目光，那是記錄每次輪迴重點用的筆記。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNvflPLrCI
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlazPUG5aU1
曾做了什麼事情導致什麼後果、又或前幾次的時光旅行是從哪一天到哪一天。畢竟穿梭於時光的次數一多，對於「這個時空」的自己目前做了什麼事，他也會感到混亂。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb08ihw5hl
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjz1eyOzP7R
白紙上的字體散發出些微憤怒，目光掃視幾行，獨人便不忍再看下去了。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQaKnCalYN
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7dSsSr8hm
上頭紀錄著他之前為了抓到不良少年小川把柄而重複輪迴的重點，包括小川家的調查、他跟他爸借錢的細述、甚至提款卡密碼都拿到了。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdkCyT4Kpn
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlhw7ygGvF
這些小事在現在的獨人眼裡看來格外諷刺，以前的他到底為何要把心思花在這些無用的事情上？99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbzDsR0sEy
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfPi7LjeNi
無奈嘆了口氣便把本子闔上，獨人走向房門，握著把手遲遲不敢轉開，隨著時間溢出汗珠在金屬表面與皮膚之間產生噁心的黏膩感。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1vtHHnQs2
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMox3vwkzz
打開門就能看到茉紅梨了嗎？99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ23iT9M2V6
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXd6YUYGzFt
看到了，我又該怎麼反應呢？99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA0ijKbm95
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rrT614fd0
他從沒想過這種問題，倒不如說以前他幻想「要是那個笨妹妹不在的話」這種情境的次數更多。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfG5cwstOb
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnf4XhhjbVJ
剛才日記本的資訊完全沒有提及任何有關茉紅梨的事情，因為他對妹妹的嫉妒深刻到連寫下她的名字都不願意。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XjZvVLiF9
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZNMBOHcVM
「此時」的茉紅梨在哪？「最近」發生了什麼事，獨人完全不知道，過去的他對於妹妹實在太漠不關心了。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5jm5Y0D7Q
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkvGvD5xes
最終他豁出去，大口嚥下口水才猛力轉開門把，有些年紀的木門推開時發出「磯——」的聲音使他更加緊張。
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7TYPoci39
「呃......」
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmmRQLMEaq
她才剛從玄關進入客廳，看見獨人便止住動作僵直在原地，踮起的腳尖和單肩托在背後的書包完全說明了她正躡手躡腳不想被發現的心情。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLJ9hg9tZ2
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsESV3RKcg
被抓個正著的茉紅梨愕然勾起單邊嘴角，笑容尷尬至極，「ㄏ、嗨，獨人……我回來了……」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmIhtECsLk
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0BDlOY8Be
獨人心頭沒來由地一緊彷彿被擰乾的毛巾，喉頭也開始哽咽，逐漸酸澀了起來。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNMuQBJAJZ
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT40OKpedeg
他幾乎是想都沒想，本能地衝上前給予妹妹人生第一次的擁抱。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCu3UF7sIf
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuuMZdaHWd
激動情緒已不容許自己發聲，他只能全身緊繃著出力，就像防止懷中那人離開一樣抱得很緊很緊，修長手臂死命抓著茉紅梨相對較小的背。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pqjKQHUaY
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiTlwCTeKB
獨人首次知道，原來茉紅梨的體溫是如此溫暖。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulF6Io5KWn
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwrVqGKS7p
茉紅梨耳邊傳來哥哥的啜泣聲，身子也不時感受到吸鼻子的抽搐。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pAn2R20aG
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0soiwUmyJr
「獨、獨人？」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgDdxzEt4n
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJ8oA4O1UK
一直到茉紅梨發出聲音，獨人才鬆開束縛退開來。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5FuZaVszm
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPl365SGYsx
只見茉紅梨的表情彆扭，摻雜恐懼、麻煩、慌張，是一個負面情緒的集合體，獨人才意識到——原來她一直是這樣面對他的。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeNvB9ZvOY
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGP4EYUaTTY
「茉紅梨……」獨人試圖將緊張感隨著口水吞下肚，明明是曾經歷過的日子，以前自己的心情是怎樣來著？不耐煩嗎？他也不記得了。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFelOdcvAxf
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JAXbw4v6S
只知道此時此刻自己感到畏懼，良心在譴責，心裡有股聲音正告訴他「你曾殺死的人就在這裡」、「她等等就會向你興師問罪」。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf8FkWfHIh
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WoiRaIs7h
也許他還沒準備好，腦筋一片混亂以致喚了茉紅梨名字之後就沒有後續了，這令被呼喚的本人無所適從，最後她趁這次機會乾脆開口。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKEx0KtdsM
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJVPugEQlf
「那個……獨人，我想問你……」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsonRfRK0cZ
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGsrlz4EGL
茉紅梨猶豫不決，拖沓著是否要繼續接話，在雙方都不敢直視對方的情況下，她率先鼓起了勇氣問道。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkXZLAujfF
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVS5wY1yfQi
「那個……週六你有空嗎？我們學校有園遊會，如果你有空的——」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXetvd7GPn
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtkZqp2fsc
似曾相似的對話，獨人依稀記得這段被他拒絕的過去。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uivTouvx3
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEItI8R9nm
心頭猛然湧上一股酸意，他再度克制不住情緒擁了上去，淚水沿頰滑下，順著下巴浸濕茉紅梨肩邊的衣料。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCE7KIqtLX
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFB8lUtrPhR
「我有空、有空……我想去……！」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVnPfP2X5i
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡem0BOQiiyb
「真、真的嗎？」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuh0MxlPkA
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ157eTJbJG5
「……嗯。」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SGpSPAUuQ
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjYmZX6pRH
那是茉紅梨這一輩子第一次得到哥哥肯定的答案。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlZPXuKu34
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19Ms6xGFwO
也是獨人這輩子首次接納了她。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtH7PxfcdI
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtVLkIwu0L
那天之後兄妹倆之間的關係戲劇性好轉。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfkvBQysM8
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZnFFsxuaW
突如其來的態度轉變令茉紅梨感到疑惑，甚至一度懷疑這是不是另類的惡作劇，或許是獨人故意對她好，然後再一口氣想讓她絕望也說不定。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXd07CAq82
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiofs8domb4
依照以前獨人的所作所為，這不無可能。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0h0INbmFp
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb3LkX3NeU
不過一天、兩天下來，雙方皆在尷尬的不適應下逐漸接受現況，哥哥的柔軟姿態變成日常。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7He3HvNOh
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUpfvEf7l1
儘管長年累積的芥蒂無法立即抹去、兩人獨處時也依舊找不到什麼話題，可在茉紅梨心中，獨人已然成為了一名不需要戒慎恐懼的哥哥了。
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5RzULA6pr
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyM0VV8Rgrm
一個多月後。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRdvLMAb8b
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttINAU8fCI
「茉紅梨，我要交志願調查表了，妳的給我吧，我一起拿去。」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YTfHiwzcL
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadneCePyRD
「哦，葵，Thank you啦！」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbeGK4EYHl
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQ7tNNghbN
安高葵面帶欣慰地看著茉紅梨。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUa0L8upNut
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR3pcWmOm8
她們是幼稚園同學，直到升上國三才再度相遇，安高葵本來對於茉紅梨性格與幼稚園時期大相徑庭感到在意。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7B3wSUPOi
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCl14ncEXQ
不過從一個月前開始，茉紅梨顯露憂鬱神情的次數驟減，恢復成與幼兒時期一致的開朗了。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamMJVOKgFw
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZYSJkRCjo
「妳果然是打算去雄英嗎？」安高葵順著接過的紙張注意到上頭文字，並不感到意外，「也是啦，妳的個性不去當英雄真的太浪費了。」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36uusfI3Sj
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXR5IKveAh
「嘻嘻，對吧？」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSvWqelW3Q
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XWfysK6WK
別人誇無所謂，由本人露出我很厲害吧的表情時總是有些欠揍，安高葵忍不住翻了個白眼。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECCoYrCQkt
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5ZNHPByEt
下一秒，她卻發現友人驕傲的情緒冷靜了，茉紅梨望著地板悠悠地道。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzu9dnFx1B
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zIFgWlINA
「我本來以為自己這輩子都不能嚮往成為英雄了。」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHmUfHSdZY
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicIEHGM4nh
「咦？為什麼？」99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0IpI7ZvEb
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxi84jHERQ
回憶起過往或許有些酸澀，她真曾經想過要放棄，因為她有個無個性又羨慕自己的哥哥，在他面前成為他嚮往的存在——這實在太諷刺了。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlD0EUpBn2
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWU7cwGf5A
不過……99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Y2SfXuPSw
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AwioOgoon
昨天當她拿著志願表到父母面前簽名，心驚膽顫就怕被哥哥發現時，獨人從房間出來正巧撞見一切。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjO40uo4xd
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAul4mYQSw
「妳一定能成為很棒的英雄。」獨人是這麼對她說的。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDKJTtQCSY
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eVeDJedvy
不同以往口是心非的諷刺語調，那句肯定是打從心底，茉紅梨感受得到。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpAHc8sUH5
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03wK6bIZrb
「不過我錯了。」搖搖頭，她不打算回答安高葵的疑問。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMM0mosA2ys
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3gfr5TbVV
這件事情埋在自己心中即可。99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kUekhxlz3
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsEuJKtwMK
然後，茉紅梨微笑看向窗外天空。
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsSo9hDnpM
「今天的天氣真好！」
99Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8oXtzODDA
