420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaspwd70hvi
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHOeLDdUbG
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraKYFJLXeH
「你們想知道哪一方面？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9ga27XxoO
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxS2d0Dd7Gf
艾莉絲問他們。謝綠貪心地回答：「全部，我受夠一知半解了。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxHFHsa5HV
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoCbUu9ccj
「……。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xa5n72JEb
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4SuRBQj9J
「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。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3Imtdom5e
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1B3BPqL5E
「……。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnG0NtB58of
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjYVGxoeZU
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGRhd67SOy
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThF9myq3IO
「怎麼了？」謝綠覺得她的視線很奇怪。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCr3DmwgtEb
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKoTMClejIR
「不，沒什麼。」艾莉絲小聲地說：「原來妳的眼睛是這樣。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rOwywMcXh
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaOaZG3D1G
「……？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIGAVVGmxj
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKUSjaoqeo
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXG0ofH48Pq
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKnbX5Ppfv
「羅琳娜就是水果塔。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡox65ZAxgrI
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5EXiGY4SU
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。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDHrtVN8wF
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UWLeZfAtK
「照理說？」江云格聽到關鍵字。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICFT7iP0zy
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxoxyt5nMH
「白絃正在衰弱。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mpdC2O4Fm
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaQKlmhbok
艾莉絲用別的稱呼，以此區分白絃的多重身份。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZp8aXG5Hli
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFHsPshWLz
「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。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkQUfplzOm
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVabqYWS4iH
「什麼機會？」謝綠問。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqQuG1OenV
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVjnrmiLH6
「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……」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4HBPFN5lZ
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVlWKwUgpP
艾莉絲突然打住，冰冷的表情難得，出現類似困惑的情緒。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jv1OfHPer
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06pVnl791F
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjAjnYBssk
「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。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXT2OEo0pkS
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz57ydM0IOn
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICsx2Ju2A0
「……？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU74XpSpJLr
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYargnajIV
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yXxAsY0rA
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vU9lk5jU1
「『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？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbvDrbTzyo
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡged8sk3OHG
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？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c0jPdCa0S
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJATiVUpD0
「白絃也是這麼說。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpBOJJ0xrm
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiTKj8p4cv
艾莉絲抬頭，盯著天花板的一個點。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCG6o5Ubi0
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIAER41R5L
「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。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1vBqA5zCE
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BNZtZ7GuG
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoT6SMl8Up6
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmn2l05Ufm
「宇維少爺，一定還有沒打出來的牌，只是我們不知道。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmWZzJ9Hr3
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUYBKY5ikW
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMMSz5tWm1
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXQiRVLH68
「作為艾莉絲，妳不會想做什麼嗎？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEjpU2h0Ll
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6F59dIMkb
謝綠突然問，艾莉絲難得眨眼，似乎不明白她在問什麼。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2tb3dTUVH
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoSFFZilqE
「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？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXjqEwHrZw
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNnQ0SUAr9
「……。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxyYwWEH1H
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFBUZ5XkDR
艾莉絲低頭。她沉默很久，才緩緩開口：「我隨時都會被取代。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdALNDSeAbz
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7uh81HT5U
「什麼？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZoGF4j9RC
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRs91n5xHTX
「說故事的人是羅琳娜，不是我。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwcaktURkf
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgSvN4ukUv
艾莉絲喝了一口拿鐵，今天的第五杯。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTxaMqcM8c
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs3lryvW4N
「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。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjbW99Xb2i
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIJkSzMICX
艾莉絲閉上眼睛。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKmQ8egeM2
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHt9cV1R5o6
「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。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7eZAugBRy
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQ2DVmnscY
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8neXq6s7f
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHp3I28wFe
「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？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKadWcs4ux
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBirDep8n4P
「……。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMndcDn9BQ
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kY02yVH6H
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7CztpNiKH
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmfAm2MZvt
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nNgObIJht
「沙利葉。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmwH6OOSdS
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpKjg07lLV
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPx1gJm2q0D
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1Cwo2faLa
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCKrbhj0ol
「羅琳娜，死於，沙利葉。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69GUs34DMe
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfM8hK2EGYS
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFZf0ec3L4
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fTtB9Ef2T
「沙利葉……」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeq3VLzvAH
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2JwjQD3vD
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmo6kBGv8xx
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYBRiQ2W9a
「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？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjvvOSQU8q
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TJwo4hHBl
謝綠也問：「沙利葉到底是誰，羅琳娜為什麼會死於沙利葉？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLukz5EMf0
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5D2Kw8PzOF
艾莉絲陷入沉思。這時，賴梓綾又開口：「利維坦。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98rCZv7AoV
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3e0muLCkmn
「……？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmVPvv9BEZ
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsxfGDPQ7E
「沙利葉，回來。」賴梓綾斷斷續續地說：「和，利維坦，一起回來。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eMSyMvyFN
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnfNrp1hCw
「……！」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlPrUha4sY
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxPhgAfNUr
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTaD5mJmi9
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJfVpfxMQN
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3JqComulE
「我想，小約翰所說的『沙利葉』，就是蜘蛛。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPMET8CA15
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEb28haogV
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyfsGBKzAU
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？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDDkouokeG
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrr17Z6Nqb
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。420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2Pl4rhCVl
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4x5wCr4Tr
「瘋帽，沒有跟你們說嗎？」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZI5fJF0Se
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w9ErRIOn2
艾莉絲停頓，一字一句，說出令人震驚的事實──420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGHkaJLTmn
420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNCNq624AJ
「蜘蛛不只一個。」420Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobSUhcBNmK
