又是一年的三月，春來時，梅雨季也隨之而來。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSOko5xRpL
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyo7hMdH0IC
「呼……」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRVtuQfk7i
微瀾撐著傘，站在研究所外，看著眼前這座曾經見證過心動與心碎的建築，心底莫名泛起一絲複雜的情緒。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktVAqjxgrT
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡch70h53McE
這裡，是她曾經努力融入的世界，54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY3N1vWLI9
也是她曾經選擇離開的地方。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctmy5F28iy
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOf3QT8Ex6
這一年來，她以外部人員的身份協助研究計畫，始終沒有真正「回來」。前陣子，蘇硯問她，是否願意正式接下研究員的職位。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhLy79ALs7
她想了想，最後，還是答應了。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzzFzXwRrb
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiU6dLAESZ
今天，就是她正式加入的第一天。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjgJ7cRXQ7
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfV6AVJ6io
「……這比研究所面試還令人緊張。」她低聲嘀咕著，手指輕輕扣了扣傘柄。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVsgZ3KXsl
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nelfSvfya
她已經適應了學術環境，也確定了自己想要走的路，但當她真正要踏入這個地方時，心裡的緊張感卻還是不可避免地浮現出來。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBflkGsjWE
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWn6CS7QYvB
幸好，蘇硯的團隊氣氛與他本人並無二致——54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYv7iGh4Cd
溫暖且熱情。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlB6mCYHbsQ
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ289rPLLux
這個地方，不再讓她感到陌生與不安。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NqMSs21ja
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p99AY3DjM
她微微一笑，深吸了一口氣，然後邁步向前，伸手推開了研究所的大門。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlumbjNoVV6
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDCsaXjzOT
「哎，學妹來啦？」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkS80WOuEt
熟悉的聲音自前方傳來，微瀾抬起頭，便看到蘇硯正懶洋洋地倚著門框，手裡捧著一杯咖啡，像是在等她。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiCQMtA9aS
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6r6JXwIRg
「學長，」她無奈地笑了笑，「你什麼時候改負責迎賓了？」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMH6Mpcaec
「這可不是迎賓，是怕妳站在門口太久，乾脆過來看看。」蘇硯喝了一口咖啡，瞥了她一眼，54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvpcCkPJwc
「更何況…妳能算『賓』嘛。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwBbWDosNi
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2feVq93yBf
「……學長，你是不是期望我現在轉頭就走？」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqrKdGecQJ
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBWWQpcoYL
「怎麼？要不要回頭？現在還來得及喔。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hvJXWpjUz
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsePy1Qel2y
「……你覺得我會嗎？」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMzEABBF5W
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyXMRStX0c
「不會。」蘇硯聳了聳肩，嘴角勾起一抹笑意，「但還是想看看妳會不會，又『臨陣脫逃』。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7UP9EVNdp
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaI4WDV17L
微瀾無語地翻了個白眼，「學長…現在教授都像你這麼閒嗎？」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOBQQtye7Z
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkPUiB8AY6
「不閒啊，」蘇硯理所當然地說，「但來損妳幾句還是有點時間的。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtP69hjgSom
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekYkuAqcYO
話落，他將一張訪客識別證遞給她，「今天先拿這個，之後辦好正式的就能進出了。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QbFT3NSHj
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHN1nj4ggP
微瀾接過識別證，別在腰間，便跟著蘇硯走進去。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRUvtNmAqq
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWjy9hdm3X
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0otMpI9cxn
「走吧，該來認識一下你的新同事了。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewnlLzp2Sd
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6NLdNdxZ6
這裡的環境與微瀾記憶中的相差不遠，走廊的燈光依舊柔和，辦公區的擺設依舊井然有序，空氣裡還帶著些許咖啡與打印紙張的味道——這曾經是她最熟悉的氣息。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZkjjWQ4fu
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeX0uCMFWlZ
但她知道，這裡的她，已經和三年前的自己不一樣了。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXUKqUTEfb
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5v9plY86qO
「前面這區是資料室，你的辦公桌就在那邊，旁邊還空了一個位子，方便你放研究設備。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeESBslUIhl
蘇硯邊走邊解釋，隨手推開了一道門。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbzScAl1lI
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBB4jg2qq6W
「進去吧，大家應該都在——」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4kd2Ukr2M
門一開，研究員們的視線齊刷刷地轉向門口，微瀾一時間還有些不習慣這樣的目光，微微頓了一下。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjzkggm0TS
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCxngsi85E
「哦哦！學長說的新人來了？」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0g2rKDd94F
「是蘇教授的學妹吧？聽說在國外做了不少研究！」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX55kOezxIC
「妳好！歡迎加入我們！」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkp2sbOhHS
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCieWifhizs
微瀾還沒來得及說話，已經有人熱情地迎上來。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAL9XKmCcz
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzpD2x7m0O
她愣了愣，旋即微笑點頭：「大家好，我是微瀾，請多指教。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5WrM62IQ1
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO6BvHnsfZ
與她想像中不同，研究所的環境並沒有帶給她強烈的壓迫感，反而讓她有種難得的放鬆感。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkQfRQQaLV
她終於明白，這是因為——這一次，她是帶著選擇回來的，這裡，才是她想要的歸屬。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyCMIX7Jyq
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZiYrBUKqp
「對了，等等蘇教授會帶妳熟悉幾個合作部門，尤其是……」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsw6TyEluNi
「許教授那邊吧？」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ39lgXHe5qf
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Qo2NA3mCe
有人笑著接話：「畢竟未來很多研究案都會跟他那組對接。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQx1uJtY92j
微瀾正翻著資料的手微微一頓。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07DOUEhmFm
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO61Q3wg51J
「啊，學妹你該不會還沒見過許教授吧？」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEDviO9nVb
「你們說……許墨？」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLRmVL8304
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvqVKFSr0j
微瀾低聲問，語氣雖然穩定，指尖卻輕輕收緊了一些。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHAwJBDYuz
「對啊，他這幾年帶的計畫挺多的，最近幾次的交叉合作，他們那組都在負責。」54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7m9LXTllLi
有人順口回應，沒注意到她的細微變化。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfm6dCCo84
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2W4VhniEjp
「嗯……」微瀾垂下眼，輕輕摩挲著手中的筆。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡve4rMCR3CX
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzv9zdaldf3
這一刻，她知道——她終究還是要與他碰面的。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9Kqnr1NdJ
54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBZnzKaXL0
只是，這一次，主動選擇的人，是她。54Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dtLDgYGcL
