又是一年的三月，春來時，梅雨季也隨之而來。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMX4ur6RoP
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWMFgODss9
「呼……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32cQMZV6VX
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxF29JtlLhw
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvR9CfAqClv
這裡，是她曾經努力融入的世界，51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPnvB2ZhXa
也是她曾經選擇離開的地方。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kY5jRTiJY
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx316GNa3Rg
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2cKmnBHcz
她想了想，最後，還是答應了。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KuEO8NXIb
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHzRgyXCCm
今天，就是她正式加入的第一天。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhmazFiVby
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVS6tN7SdW
「……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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0gDyqV7yl
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyVTB5NdKo
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthtuGof7RF
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jCpv26fzm
幸好，蘇硯的團隊氣氛與他本人並無二致——51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Xrdo2wHMg
溫暖且熱情。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTO6dWXjlB
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7Bdk2f99b
這個地方，不再讓她感到陌生與不安。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjXhop0oGO
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMHH0o2szd
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTNbEPZQAw
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5pShd7HcN
「哎，學妹來啦？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBafookAsQB
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCdkGIDIrvS
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcC6Vsd5nJI
「學長，」她無奈地笑了笑，「你什麼時候改負責迎賓了？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjOs0PdW8K
「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，51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIbmdgsiwv
「更何況…妳能算『賓』嘛。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0WPT6FYD6
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7I98EKA0SO
「……學長，你是不是期望我現在轉頭就走？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4ai81PL48
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaizOWMGykH
「怎麼？要不要回頭？現在還來得及喔。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxtJEdIi1X
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZVtkhsm9g
「……你覺得我會嗎？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhrsYRUExU
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtd5TzNmK3
「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』。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmkUgQv850
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGzlmpyoxL
微瀾無語地翻了個白眼，「學長…現在教授都像你這麼閒嗎？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCMCdVElP0
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIPcEWtRVx
「不閒啊，」蘇硯理所當然地說，「但來損妳幾句還是有點時間的。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BFJr5TtbR
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG3NGhtpQh
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。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlV1WxON1p
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1tTwlrQWm
微瀾接過識別證，別在腰間，便跟著蘇硯走進去。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHD7bcV0eHn
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3oAS1Svaq
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5TBmDvFRn
「走吧，該來認識一下你的新同事了。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBhp54XttW
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuv19X0Xqv
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaWzQV2Esw
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsJ5Vn0VVO
但她知道，這裡的她，已經和三年前的自己不一樣了。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqCdiJhLXE
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQCWs09rIr
「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。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlmT6TSIGI
蘇硯邊走邊解釋，隨手推開了一道門。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwXIdAdVkc
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpw9kG63nRS
「進去吧，大家應該都在——」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFrO7fcl3R
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWBHmWhMGo
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOPdcEButN
「哦哦！學長說的新人來了？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsl82w7hgA1
「是蘇教授的學妹吧？聽說在國外做了不少研究！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6l0pvnubte
「妳好！歡迎加入我們！」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX6CdqT25K
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nPoFAdlsI
微瀾還沒來得及說話，已經有人熱情地迎上來。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtbOViNuHZ
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqU8MIno3WI
她愣了愣，旋即微笑點頭：「大家好，我是微瀾，請多指教。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuTpocsfwk
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpndLDf77zo
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDBaAt5yqg
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。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4p8kT4ZdF
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0XmeQY1ic
「對了，等等蘇教授會帶妳熟悉幾個合作部門，尤其是……」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpMSdxbbwn
「許教授那邊吧？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEljMAALgK
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOP6f2XyqC
有人笑著接話：「畢竟未來很多研究案都會跟他那組對接。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAvpwn1FMe
微瀾正翻著資料的手微微一頓。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0jYeA2ed1
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6966QYfGx
「啊，學妹你該不會還沒見過許教授吧？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZcSyOeQHX
「你們說……許墨？」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GtH7dKtzI
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZKGRXAoJe
微瀾低聲問，語氣雖然穩定，指尖卻輕輕收緊了一些。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxyZocDbph
「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。」51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgDL9zNyrf
有人順口回應，沒注意到她的細微變化。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeodPI7nyx1
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNp1bInT9n
「嗯……」微瀾垂下眼，輕輕摩挲著手中的筆。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiYEThLhhw
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FmlyGXsDO
這一刻，她知道——她終究還是要與他碰面的。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGJBTrgJBM
51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GlpIjjmXi
只是，這一次，主動選擇的人，是她。51Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWcBefV21J
