2161年2月21日，下午七點，卡洛爾大廈378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnrBW5iONz
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsykkxA9fFX
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnnrQPF6EM
李晴煬在書房，與此同時，謝綠、江云格、賴梓綾三人，在客廳與艾莉絲一起，詢問有關羅琳娜的事。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDxk2Z1Vbs
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwxlP7k4r6
「你們想知道哪一方面？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTabczPlV2z
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJT8o2cwFW
艾莉絲問他們。謝綠貪心地回答：「全部，我受夠一知半解了。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCtBRArdqe
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZaeN4gSnp
「……。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4m2ZLTPVo
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoiTXhvJ9j
「我要知道全部，還有──」謝綠表示：「宇維少爺和獅鷲，這兩方究竟想做什麼、該怎麼阻止，我也必須知道。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Mv7bYJiOM
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKG8xSLx5EU
「……。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbjM4ZRku6
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm82cxssrZy
艾莉絲突然不說話，漆黑的眼珠凝視著謝綠的臉，尤其是她的草綠色眼睛。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7liobC7WF5
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqPcJPEhbw
「怎麼了？」謝綠覺得她的視線很奇怪。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlwKvIptz4
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSK5DTFcSnt
「不，沒什麼。」艾莉絲小聲地說：「原來妳的眼睛是這樣。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakqH7Xxbmc
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkUoVfvC6g
「……？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8Ktd7FyD7
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DIhlYI3o1
艾莉絲講得很小聲，還是被聽力極好的江云格聽見。他不知道艾莉絲在說什麼，艾莉絲也立刻轉移話題，江云格沒辦法問。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtBnZywPlO
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfnCqfNwWE
「羅琳娜就是水果塔。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpl7BbOQJz
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MSxt2XUhS
艾莉絲兩手交疊，放在腿上，心平氣和地說：「她擁有每一種水果塔，也能使用每一種水果塔──照理說是這樣。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCIVwrtxb0
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhC22tE8TT
「照理說？」江云格聽到關鍵字。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFZuax4QBM
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7GdjW1KrA
「白絃正在衰弱。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6SJyNrxFs
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MltPMTkIV
艾莉絲用別的稱呼，以此區分白絃的多重身份。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45IB99YrSg
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuqXOO6Cbe
「白絃體內，屬於『羅琳娜』的力量在不斷流失，正退化成第一代水果塔『獅鷲』──這對艾莉絲體系十分不利，我們將失去對抗蜘蛛的最大戰力，但白絃的衰弱，是瘋帽的一大機會。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViutNrCTV4
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmtJvPDj09
「什麼機會？」謝綠問。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaM8npVH7IV
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3opJlmjr2
「讓李仲翔回來。」艾莉絲回答：「李仲翔當年會死，因為他面對的不只是『獅鷲』，而是『羅琳娜』；一旦李仲翔透過李晴煬的身體歸來，衰弱的白絃無法對抗完整的紅心傑克，然後……」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxo41LhIJDn
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwU8nAawPUz
艾莉絲突然打住，冰冷的表情難得，出現類似困惑的情緒。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodCxzeEQLU
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdSUSultOg
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMds2YkIJiJ
「李仲翔會找到我、利用共鳴，喚醒當年的夏悠。『夏悠透過現在的艾莉絲歸來，與所有水果塔共鳴、重振艾莉絲體系』──以此撕毀《羅琳娜條約》，是瘋帽的最終目的。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4vEfCYMc7
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTHDxQQnpJ
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxShEZRtqki
「……？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo88nj8sVeG
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzT8CNUSvP
聽到這，謝綠和江云格理解，為什麼艾莉絲會感到困惑。言下之意，高宇維計畫的關鍵，除了李晴煬，另一個就是艾莉絲。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOthbwucsr
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnnld0tjIL
「『只要李仲翔回來，妳就會變成夏悠』──為什麼宇維少爺如此篤定？這件事的成功機率，是百分之百嗎？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUDcto6HMb
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6DlIUEt1l
謝綠看著艾莉絲，「妳有夏悠的外表、身份、記憶，但妳不是她，妳根本不認識李仲翔，怎麼會被他影響？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTxoI5bh1X
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxcuLqquGe
「白絃也是這麼說。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTge3fj9cd
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBitdzIj4I
艾莉絲抬頭，盯著天花板的一個點。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KVF76Gehv
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzMczP856M
「對我而言，夏悠的記憶像電影，我只是看電影的觀眾，不是主角。我好奇白絃和李仲翔、也會感到熟悉，但我沒有夏悠的感情；之於『我』，他們只是艾莉絲體系的兩個人，我和他們沒有感情基礎，所以我不明白。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUVVvzt5ZO
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAWy5lhuqs
高宇維和白絃，兩人都認為對方會失敗，因為他們掌握的關鍵截然相反──高宇維相信夏悠會回來，白絃不是。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF64jlmNwHg
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncQcG7xZm4
「宇維少爺，一定還有沒打出來的牌，只是我們不知道。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZDewRV0xc
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUuvbDvXQa
江云格思索。高宇維這些年的重心，都放在李晴煬、神與畜、十大家族，很少提到艾莉絲；可見在他的認定，艾莉絲的事情非但不急，還不擔心白絃從中做艮。按高宇維的個性，把一件重要的事放著不管，他肯定很有把握。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2Czs6rGPC
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4Kqs2s9eI
「作為艾莉絲，妳不會想做什麼嗎？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDE7haAPgjS
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTx0edPqJqz
謝綠突然問，艾莉絲難得眨眼，似乎不明白她在問什麼。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6yqITLOKF
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9D3I17tYf
「雖然被《羅琳娜條約》削弱權力，但之前做錯事的是夏悠，不是妳；夏悠犯下的罪，其實不用妳承擔。」謝綠表示：「什麼也不做，任憑宇維少爺和白絃左右自己。身為艾莉絲，妳不會不甘心嗎？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOmyJ4B9Oz
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmEntvsJW4
「……。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQuBPvEV5H
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBifsjLMHMj
艾莉絲低頭。她沉默很久，才緩緩開口：「我隨時都會被取代。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhGEiN8MMh
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgkR5MQp5kr
「什麼？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEVSZAMDNU
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHC1UgTKEn
「說故事的人是羅琳娜，不是我。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQB4ucE1sj
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLt0LVuMYkQ
艾莉絲喝了一口拿鐵，今天的第五杯。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLG1gRwmcbt
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFf7kFsWB3
「夏悠死了，羅琳娜沒有讓一切結束，而是創造新的艾莉絲、建立十大家族，確保水果塔被一代代傳承；沒有繼承人的水果塔，就用人造人去彌補。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDGWaZrIxL
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGvMRHO7hD
艾莉絲閉上眼睛。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9bFmQkDhl
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKxD4dHQqo
「我們，都是白絃保存回憶的一部分。她希望艾莉絲體系繼續存在，這樣，第一代水果塔的故事就不會結束。夏悠不能回來，但她和夏悠的回憶，白絃不想讓它消失，所以羅琳娜讓我們在這──在沒有夏悠的艾莉絲體系──延續水果塔的故事，保存她的回憶。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuV0GIxEbf
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZhmuvzG7n
艾莉絲看著他們，尤其是謝綠。江云格發現，艾莉絲看謝綠的眼神一直很怪。雖然不明顯，但那雙漆黑的眼珠，蘊藏很多情緒。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKk6LQ6LU1
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzqM1IFVvX
「瘋帽也不希望故事結束，這點，他和羅琳娜有相同的共識，所以他們給我這棟大樓，既是保護我，也是監視我；如果我做出不符合『艾莉絲』的舉動，羅琳娜會將我破壞。既然隨時會被取代，『我』的存在有什麼意義？既然沒有意義，『我』維持現狀或變成夏悠，又有什麼區別？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Y6hshocjU
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4i3D6mUqyy
「……。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRQPzAaBw0
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrfP87zLk3
她不是「什麼都沒做」，而是「什麼都做不了」。身居高位，虛位元首；身而為王，君權神授。她無法對抗高宇維，也無法違抗羅琳娜。被命運囚禁的，除了水果塔後代，還有「偉大的」艾莉絲。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGj7S7lZIfF
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lRdOELH4O
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgyn4RMES5
「沙利葉。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMeOaNuSDT
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEaJbBlJvi
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQIIEc5Ixh
突然，沒聽過的聲音加入談話。艾莉絲、謝綠、江云格轉頭，看向一直坐在旁邊，默默聽他們對話的賴梓綾。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLqHzokTvD
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeJKdWNCxu
「羅琳娜，死於，沙利葉。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGn15E7BDq
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cU1vOnwte
這是賴梓綾講過最完整的句子。江云格和謝綠這才想起，筆記本最後一章的內容，就是這一句。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDjpqUT3m0
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNSO6SepfZ
「沙利葉……」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnUSxB1dLa
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdC0j36KUbx
艾莉絲覆誦。她有夏悠的記憶，知道筆記本的內容，但太久沒聽到這個詞，一時覺得陌生。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoGp0HubDy
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Vb8EJWqvH
「我記得，沙利葉是薩拉凱爾教的核心，被稱作『月之天使』。」江云格問艾莉絲：「為什麼薩拉凱爾教的傳說，會和艾莉絲體系扯上關係？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dSM9PMIkn
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1joS8sZGA3
謝綠也問：「沙利葉到底是誰，羅琳娜為什麼會死於沙利葉？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhoJ9dQLEG
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vbYIBmRhr
艾莉絲陷入沉思。這時，賴梓綾又開口：「利維坦。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NGBriWFVu
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegMN90iM13
「……？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfFuZtK3M5
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskdKhs31oY
「沙利葉，回來。」賴梓綾斷斷續續地說：「和，利維坦，一起回來。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9X8bftSRD
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9k2sdKuo1
「……！」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE12HrX2k7
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1SoX1OXCv
大家都不知道她在說什麼，但賴梓綾的話，似乎讓艾莉絲想到什麼。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwahGWy15ZG
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71c0Bggyxb
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhj8WhSFzo
「我想，小約翰所說的『沙利葉』，就是蜘蛛。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA84KKUNegr
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1joQ2PfPI
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeTuiUzQoh
艾莉絲說出她認為的答案，但這答案，讓謝綠和江云格感到十分震驚。謝綠問艾莉絲：「紅鶴就是沙利葉，他能殺死羅琳娜？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0JQAux9Jq
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxO3Dq94oD
聽到謝綠的問題，艾莉絲難得出現表情。她用介於困惑和驚訝之間的眼神，看著謝綠和江云格。378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYNU4OvEEU
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cBArzZPkH
「瘋帽，沒有跟你們說嗎？」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfFTbYs8KY
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62lVO1rPHI
艾莉絲停頓，一字一句，說出令人震驚的事實──378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsNeghTj4f
378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuDCcKGCV5
「蜘蛛不只一個。」378Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTA74Uv31L
