穿過一片蓊鬱樹林，途經一片交錯著野花與灌木的原野，沿著小溪向上走，便可抵達丘陵上的一個小洞穴。洞穴不深，直徑與深度約莫一阿爾雷，是個可以遮風避雨、在陽光普照的溫暖季節裡打個小盹的地方。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl8VVmL6ZS
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4VQWv6GuU
是艾依查庫發現這個被層層樹影所掩蓋的洞穴的。在一次如往常的探險中，艾伯李斯特與艾依查庫因為一時興起，而沿著林中的溪流向上行走；沿途的陌生風景在兩人眼中看來都是驚奇而有趣的新世界，以致於當沉溺於四周景致的兩人回神時，天空已經染上淺淺的橙色，腳下的影子也拉得微長。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1fST2iYfi
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT7MAV4VkH
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AyaJUC0JC
「好像該回去了，我們走得有點遠。」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDwfcyH96f
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJawe6d2MW
「啊，已經這麼晚了……」艾依查庫探頭看了下艾伯李斯特手腕上的錶，「但是前面好像就是盡頭了，難得來到這裡，不然我們走過那棵樹之後再折回頭？」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxnaQ3NW9k
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMzGWFmYkS
「好啊。」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNghGPK9Z5

43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczKAQNx5dK
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bBUnUWJQW
艾伯李斯特沒有異議，於是兩人沿著裸露在地表外的樹根與穿透樹葉的陽光繼續向前，在走出樹蔭的剎那看見世界的另一個角落。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWgRilAyD7
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRvdRRYf1i
他們幾乎俯瞰了整座城鎮。房屋沿著道路羅列在田野間，遠處建築密集的地方則是因為距離的關係而灰暗一片，鳥兒成群飛翔在雲彩之間、漸行漸遠。艾伯李斯特被眼前的風景所震懾住，還無法離開自己的目光，就被身後早一步回神的艾依查庫急切地叫喚──每當艾依查庫發現什麼好東西時，總是會用這樣的語氣呼喚艾伯李斯特。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhH97KpNhqn
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JB0j7Pwy4
於是他們意外地擁有了一個不太秘密的秘密基地。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGs2FH1LTl
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOT6593Q8r3
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Z4ryGl86j
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmxh7bmZJm
艾伯李斯特與艾依查庫從沒想過要隱瞞這個地方，一方面也是因為兩個人不曉得該如何描述這個地點。經過幾次折返與來回奔波，艾伯李斯特逐步修正了到達這個洞穴的最短路徑；但是對艾依查庫來說，他還是最喜歡一開始沿著小溪流往上走的那條路，即使那是所需時間較長的路徑。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9VxWGpVeJ
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqqgyxenML
經過幾個春夏秋冬，兩人累積待在這個秘密基地的時間越來越長，囤積在洞穴裡的物品不斷消長，儼然成為艾伯李斯特與艾依查庫共有的、且不為人知的空間。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rO8yRGRsi
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbTGFKJ4Ml
在不知道第幾個春天來臨時，踏進洞穴內的兩人發現了一位不速之客──幾聲清脆鳥囀讓毫無防備的艾依查庫瞬間驚跳起來。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUf9hrRxyG
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkRPcRlL4f
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfY0Up68umZ
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaU9BykusM
「什麼東西！」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFo64FiA0op
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPenuAQatKf
「鳥叫聲？」艾伯李斯特走近一瞧，發現的確是一隻幼鳥正躺在地上。「嘿，沒事啦，只是隻鳥。」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VeM1M6BDB
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKLbGAMiVl
「鳥？怎麼會在這裡？」艾依查庫靠近艾伯李斯特的身影，「是小鳥？」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tEWZvikIC
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk826n385Se
「嗯，不過羽毛都長得差不多了。會不會是在學飛，然後不小心掉下來了？」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85qsrKGiIq
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnUDIsdBWv
「牠有受傷嗎？」艾依查庫蹲低，伸出手指戳了幾下小鳥翅膀上的羽毛，見牠沒有飛走的打算，便大膽地抓起小鳥的身體。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdrOY1Oiu5
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuMihT7kDb
艾伯李斯特也湊近，於是兩個人便清楚地看見，雀鳥的其中一隻爪子拐著不正常的弧度。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56nrGWzwWw
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQ7OKpl5nY
「看起來是受傷了。帶回去照顧牠？家裡有醫藥箱。」艾伯李斯特提議。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLe0M0T0ose
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiHTSVNBVv
「但是老爺跟夫人不會答應的吧，記得上次那隻小貓嗎？」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TSISE4ULN
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaNqt0fOKf
「噢，說得也是……」艾伯李斯特沉思半晌，隨後說：「那我們就在這裡照顧牠吧。」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd9JiesSeE
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiT8HfGWdK
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTOULX4EUi
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtz2GqhPiaF
於是接下來整整兩周的時間，艾伯李斯特與艾依查庫用盡各式各樣的理由，每日輪流交替前往秘密基地照顧受傷的雀鳥，除了醫療用品以外，還帶了糧食與毛巾（以防夜晚太冷讓小鳥失溫）。而小雀鳥也不負兩人所期望的，每一天看起來都比前一日有精神，也漸漸養實了身體。兩周後，不僅整隻鳥長大了一圈，也能在洞穴內短暫走跳了。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnHiaxH96F
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPmP5HLzkv
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpy4F8Z4wp
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizmte2O0Hb
「看起來是康復了，不過好像還不能飛。」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpnfQCDouT
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxe0fk4i93
「我倒覺得是牠本來就還不會飛。」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhuMroj09M
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxb4g03S3ne
某一日的午後，兩個人趁著家中大人都出門辦事，偷偷地跑來洞穴照顧小雀鳥；原本明媚的陽光在兩人出門後就被厚重的雲層所遮掩，看起來一副就是要下雨的樣子。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJv9N2i462
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4DHq5jDPa
沒想到要帶雨具的兩個人倒也不心急，或坐或躺地在洞穴內閒聊著，並且不忘在拆開餅乾的同時也捏碎了一些給小鳥吃。正當艾依查庫覺得有點昏昏欲睡的同時，天空裡傳來一聲響雷，將兩人的注意力都吸引過去。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuk49b8dNK
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejxQCRawFs
「好像要下雨了──」43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKqMeXOTgb
43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaLbgrQnjx
艾伯李斯特的話語尾音尚落，雀鳥便發出幾聲嘹亮急促的叫聲，拍了幾下翅膀就往洞穴外飛去，片刻後雨水就打溼了洞穴外的泥土地。一時之間，艾伯李斯特與艾依查庫都沒有說話，只是凝視著外頭不斷落下的雨水。43Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0D1nVe9k0
