2161年2月19日，早上九點，仙境大樓，三層527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrxBSoIQZX
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXkXZtcjbA
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIhRDVbQl9
同一天的早晨，大西洋的另一端，里奧、葛蕾絲、李博洋、MIO、江云格、謝綠，六人聚集在三樓，討論他們新加入的成員。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSCG3tKZWA
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uhx3jNBW3
賴梓綾，主教賴霜原的三女兒，因為白化症被視為薩拉凱爾教的惡魔。被帶回仙境大樓後，她一直處於昏迷狀態，昨晚謝綠和葛蕾絲幫她洗了澡，此刻的賴梓綾躺在三樓的長沙發，蓋著一條暖和的被子。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqiammiiYR7
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKO1fALtAM
「我很困惑。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAUCzGAf5w
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPuM7iL5Bv
在旁照顧人的謝綠，手輕輕放在賴梓綾的被子上，問大家：「按照出生日期，她應該小我六歲，怎麼外表看起來比我年長？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvj26pW4vHe
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yzGwFeHbL
確實，賴梓綾的實際年齡只有八歲，卻有著高中生般的外表。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kzSOZprED
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qydBEi5d5
坐在高腳椅上的李博洋表示：「我弟實際年齡只有十六，看起來也像二十幾歲呀。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzejzAidqRj
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDKnhlMf2J
謝綠反駁：「因為他和MIO有過交換，那不一樣。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1CdZ6IvlX
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3qT8EFLE0
李博洋的視線移到謝綠旁的江云格，「云格實際年齡也不到十歲，還不是長這樣。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5N5STnaIDB
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCABzQC3tg1
江云格苦笑，「我是貓，不能用人類的方式計算年紀。」也想到：「會不會是因為水果塔？我記得，賴梓綾繼承的是睡鼠？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwizYQtg7Y
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZQENba7Ff
「睡鼠……很少聽到的名字。」謝綠說出大家的心聲，她問里奧和葛蕾絲：「那是什麼樣的水果塔？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54jrGrUfaq
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGkOfCfTdV
「……。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspScmB7Kci
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCs1sckXAat
只要妹妹在場，里奧幾乎不開口，葛蕾絲會幫他說話。這一次，葛蕾絲用奇怪的眼神看著里奧，好像在用眼神交流，思考該怎麼回答。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3M380T0Fmq
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4BaXlLAt7
「第一代水果塔『睡鼠（The Dormouse）』，我們叫他小約翰（Yohanna），本名不清楚，只知道他姓賴。」葛蕾絲坐在另一張沙發，「他的水果塔叫『水晶』，顧名思義，是跟礦物有關的能力，他的身體由各式各樣的礦物組成。因為不是血肉之軀，小約翰的身體很硬、力氣很大，就算受傷，恢復速度也很快。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlMk2G67VV
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwZrPYM2Xj
謝綠問：「外表也不會因為年齡改變？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cMWmrmeXq
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKRUacZfgt
葛蕾絲想了想，「好像是。我記憶中的小約翰，一直都是深藍色頭髮、綁著兩條辮子的小孩，外表很像女孩子。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡencUzke66y
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyZqfNvGPF
謝綠發現葛蕾絲的口氣很奇怪，「葛蕾絲姊，妳是不是也不清楚？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCFrlmXd5n
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGUiqCYr0B
「哈哈，被發現了。」葛蕾絲尷尬一笑，「不只我們，大部分的第一代水果塔，都跟小約翰不熟。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKTf0odyp8
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EhaulasJE
「媽媽的記憶裡也沒有他。」MIO坐在李博洋的大腿上，轉了轉黑色的眼珠，「不過，好像有一點點點點點點……印象，他是不是闖過禍？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenrwNgmung
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBUU5HFyR9
「噢，妳指『都市氣爆案』嗎？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJ5nFOEbry
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnM63KX6p5
MIO的話喚起葛蕾絲的回憶。江云格疑惑，「『都市氣爆案』？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYevNJUoed
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbl7IYxbWNv
「小約翰曾經毀掉一個都市。」葛蕾絲解答。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3atr9y11U9
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97HFocwUUj
「……這已經不是『闖禍』了。」李博洋傻眼，「小約翰這麼強？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JvXFps4qG
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjk5BrJ47rL
「不，小約翰攻擊時，只能讓地板、牆壁長出一堆水晶柱。論一對一單挑，他的實力比不上其他人。」葛蕾絲附上但書：「但他的操控範圍，是第一代水果塔裡最廣的。當年他情緒失控，讓整個城市──包括地上、地下──全部佈滿他的水晶柱，引發大規模的氣爆和火災，死了好幾百人，最後是獅鷲出手揍他，才結束掉那場災難。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVzWCcXspr
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3Wy62aNAQ
葛蕾絲說，旁邊的里奧也被喚醒記憶。他那時收到高宇維的通知，然後李仲翔出現、用白色空間將他帶到現場。父親給他的任務只有一個：從火海中救出倖存者，救一個算一個。里奧穿梭在火焰中，空氣中瀰漫人被燒死的味道，還要防範四面八發的水晶，有的上面插著死人……天啊，真的是災難。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFEjTHdWg4
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0im0kUNZb
「那之後，夏悠將小約翰交給李仲翔，也多虧他，小約翰沒有再失控，和李仲翔的感情非常好，大家都覺得很神奇。」葛蕾絲表示：「李仲翔是冷漠的人，但他對小約翰……怎麼說，溺愛嗎？小約翰每天黏著他，李仲翔也不覺得煩，還很疼他。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWicqG3Zea
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6utT6zzbM1
「……只有李仲翔知道小約翰的本名。」里奧終於開口說話：「也因為李仲翔，小約翰是『白色仲夏』的一員，最後被獅鷲殺死。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuoz9vYa08
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6gLHFChWC
葛蕾絲嘆氣，「小約翰死後，李仲翔就瘋了。他很強，無論如何都能保持冷靜、作出正確的判斷；就算打不贏獅鷲，也不至於被殺。因為小約翰先死，李仲翔失去理智、喪失判斷能力，最後也被獅鷲殺了。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vIrUW9yyh
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2pCejIsXa
眾人陷入沉默。不管聽幾次，第一代水果塔的故事都是悲劇。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRlAuI0rmW
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzoUQadxjE
「我想，也是因為水果塔，賴梓綾才沒有外傷吧。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuNni1Ccfl
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxdHtowEvO
不喜歡沉默的葛蕾絲轉換話題。她用輕鬆的口氣說，試著緩和氣氛，「明明被殘忍對待，我和小綠幫她洗澡時，卻沒在她身上看到疤痕。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3NTE06EmS
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22fLWhhogX
「但賴梓綾會流血。」MIO舉手表示：「這跟小約翰又不一樣。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqgPvjll2b
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkQrPn3gLE
「因為水果塔沒有完全覺醒。小約翰的身體由礦物組成，不吃東西也能活，但你們看，賴梓綾長期營養不良，瘦得只剩骨架，要是她的水果塔已經覺醒，不會有這種問題。」葛蕾絲再說：「賴梓綾體內的睡鼠，目前只有『恢復速度快』，其它有待觀察。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPf5zjvDZ9N
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nionde0X1
葛蕾絲說完，某人也來到三樓──剛睡醒的李晴煬突然走進來，MIO跟他說早安，李晴煬卻沒有回應。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdOYzCFXw1
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1ppB2nIal
「弟弟？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAnOtkk1ay
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEpe1WeO5T
李博洋覺得奇怪。自己就算了，平常的李晴煬不會忽略MIO。不只沒回應，李晴煬的眼神、表情都異常呆滯，渾身散發的氣場很不對勁。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0zkrMR2X2
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKvUU3gd24
「……！」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzMePi34Rs
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a9gOcnLT3
就在此時，沙發上的賴梓綾猛然睜開眼睛。謝綠正想關心她，賴梓綾卻把她的手打開，開始尖叫──527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2bRHgh9Oz
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEs2d7htX93
「啊啊……啊啊啊啊啊啊啊！！！」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrq5jRtyoK
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ620GiDoLlY
賴梓綾不會說話，看到人會本能性地發狂。她恐慌，她害怕，覺得所有人都會拿東西砍她的腳、刺她的身體、拔她的指甲，所以她拼命掙扎，推開謝綠，兩個人一起摔到地上。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSio31G4qMS
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5BtgaPlAr
「小綠！」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OayUaGYlX
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sFEb74Lnz
江云格也上前，靠體型優勢抓住賴梓綾的手，但少女像一隻動物，竟然狠狠咬住江云格的手臂，逼得江云格不得不放開，被咬的地方當場流血。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCJ2eTgwfK
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8vNOeHDH4
「啊！啊啊！啊啊啊啊！」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsddV3YS2X
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n7c5HjRpa
賴梓綾失控，李博洋抱著MIO退到旁邊，目睹一切的葛蕾絲原本要出手，卻被里奧攔下。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8yb47k76N
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡal3CVDc4VU
「哥，你幹嘛？」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQHteeHKv7
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr6hE3tZRy
「噓。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtj617rJgQ
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGOrDnHXGY
里奧叫葛蕾絲別出聲，眼神示意大家退到牆邊。此刻的賴梓綾彷彿一隻白色、有著紅眼睛的野獸，如今面對這頭野獸的，只剩李晴煬一人。
「啊啊！啊……啊啊啊……！」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjf9FkkLNZJ
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zylawCPXh
賴梓綾仍在吼叫，奇怪的是，原本全身緊繃、警戒四周的她，看見李晴煬的那一剎那，四肢漸漸放鬆，失控的情緒竟緩和下來。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShDdJh69W9
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthTGJ3uwH6
「……。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96si8zInWy
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnNZXPaeAN
李晴煬依然面無表情。他看著賴梓綾，賴梓綾也看著他，兩雙紅色的眼睛對上彼此，然後，賴梓綾用那雙細細的手，撐起身子，慢慢站起來。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU73pHGR6Lc
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudWYopGZ1k
雖然身材消瘦，但賴梓綾站起來的瞬間，在場六人都嚇了一跳。上一秒是野獸，此刻閉上嘴巴、靜靜站在那裡時，他們才驚覺這是多麼漂亮的人──及腰的白色長髮，白雪般的肌膚，扇子般的白色睫毛，搭配一雙淺紅色的眼睛，好像從童話故事走出來的雪精靈。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkKeiY0CkU
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDySPUcT6Kx
「噢呀。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59OgWsCb1w
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9nbc2NIbt
然後，賴梓綾緩緩地，朝李晴煬走去。她不會說話，但跟剛才的尖叫不同，她對著李晴煬、發出聲音：527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNC5dQoQuOS
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXtPFnss23
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqrraCr8q0
「噢呀。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttEweWkZBM
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAzTjUXODU
「噢呀……噢呀……！」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZr4NRcOwC
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsdWc2wmDK
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPeL5shO8r
聲音有起伏、有語調，謝綠和江云格不知道，但MIO、李博洋、葛蕾絲、里奧四人，一聽就知道賴梓綾在說什麼。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTpDCHhKvF
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFxeIAyKxt
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqistTdJ4r6
「仲翔。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ310eXqHQE2
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNJhoEtjfq
他在叫他。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMfjaBAuMU
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XNLwbO637
不是賴梓綾和李晴煬，是小約翰和李仲翔。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lsMAOcodE
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqJw26bTdr
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMjDfp1dQbV
「噢呀……！」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAtZxCVISo
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8JOFFgoMH
賴梓綾伸出手，抓住李晴煬的衣服。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKveXP2dY6
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKw90HuKma
「嗚……噢呀……嗚嗚……！」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsX7N5hIvq
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLM2GCDu0o7
她雙腿一軟、整個人跪到地上，眼淚莫名其妙流下來。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQub2IFzOHd
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJl3fufZwqL
賴梓綾開始哭，哭得非常、非常傷心。一直沒反應的李晴煬，突然彎下腰、單膝跪地，做出令人費解的舉動──他從口袋拿出刀子，讓賴梓綾拿著；再握住她的手，讓賴梓綾在他的食指劃上一刀，割出一個口子。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VvdQyUzGQ
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAvyG6duWV
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalLJh9EGdq
「來。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbCwz1cRnW
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yDSIVduLK
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcZ0rWEj5X
李晴煬終於開口，但那個聲音不像他，李晴煬不會用夾帶氣音的方式說話。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGJHJWf4Yz
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudLGZ3k5ei
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0y7Nd2Ack
「這裡。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvxbY2REV6
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBW1NCzwXwm
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0UHJmWWXf
李晴煬將自己食指上的血，抹在賴梓綾的手上。他露出恐怖又溫柔的微笑，將賴梓綾沾滿血的手指放到自己嘴角，輕輕挪動賴梓綾的手指。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOxCOXP6pi
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZj85OwXQks
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98F99cOcsf
「沒錯，就是這樣。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJky3Eyuafj
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuhqHY0r0l
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxnfojr7eT
李晴煬對她說。賴梓綾停下眼淚，先看自己的手，再看李晴煬的臉……好像被引導到什麼之中，不用李晴煬幫忙，賴梓綾慢慢移動手指，彷彿，用血在李晴煬的臉上畫畫。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7HTlioglp
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwe6t3qwpSp
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVgDiiaLVV
「只有你可以這麼做。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsjeaOS6dB
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsXrp0u9hl
「只有你可以對我這麼做。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiURqxBC2IA
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxFz9NBRY4
「我接受你對我這麼做。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiUbP6SUeG
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pe59Fe2bd
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22r4ceM6i6
李晴煬一邊說，一邊笑，一邊睜大他的眼睛。血沿著嘴角往上畫，畫到左耳的耳根子邊。在場所有人都傻在原地，眼前的畫面太詭異、太奇怪、太……可怕，尤其是李晴煬的聲音，他的話有頭沒尾，令人毛骨悚然。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQHr0C76WJ
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOTHsLECqu
「哥，這是……」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcjGIAlAVi
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPf0LvisSb
「嗯。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQRWanqcc6
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTlfNrJowR
里奧和葛蕾絲看著兩人，眼前的畫面與一百年前重疊，李仲翔抓著小約翰的手，把自己的身體當成畫布，給小約翰作畫。527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQBaK5zmnc
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO0Rw0U2vO
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsNlZIaf5a
「這就是愛。」527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfQkzccBDn
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwTV8zUCXa
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuy8uirov8
一百年前的李仲翔、一百年後的李晴煬，用很輕的聲音，告訴一百年前的小約翰、一百年後的賴梓綾：527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKeqFxJ9vo
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU08XA2NyYJ
527Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpJXQoFUlS
「這就是，你對我的愛。」
然後按「加至主畫面」
