主辦人──薩拉凱爾教教主致詞後，晚宴在七點準時開始。現場準備許多珍饈佳餚，世界最知名的樂隊在前方演奏，機器服務生送來各式各樣的美酒。原本以為是嚴肅的宴會，沒想到氣氛活潑，像屬於貴族的派對。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU7gkIrKA1
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelMm0PCnFG
「……。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDVidNE9tn
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pUdJVOMZZ
不過，他現在很尷尬。謝賢讓他和謝綠獨處，顧爾不能在隨侍在旁。李晴煬和謝綠靠在牆邊，不知道要說什麼。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvO9pxCeZKC
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlocT52B6R
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopu9IeyQpV
「觀自在菩薩。行深般若波羅蜜多時。照見五蘊皆空。度一切苦厄。舍利子。色不異空。空不異色。色即是空。空即是色……」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrgpL6e9qO
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3i4NtDSPQ
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BNrW8lwwX
和晚宴氣氛很不相符，他竟然從謝綠身上，聽到和尚誦經的聲音；因為太另類，李晴煬對她留下深刻的印象。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4xdCRl2VM
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRduylfEEpw
而且，謝綠很漂亮──李晴煬無法否認，眼前的女孩讓他十分著迷，尤其是草綠色的眼睛。她渾身散發一個「靜」字，小小年紀，彷彿看透很多事。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZAwj2YkdB
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsAgYYDmSg
「你是第一次參加？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVM1vEQToYd
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQB24wV86Mg
李晴煬不知道怎麼開話題，謝綠率先開口，打破尷尬的氣氛。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk6xBx22yJ
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXeUYjBRHf
喝著專為小孩調配的無酒精雞尾酒，李晴煬回應：「嗯。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTIs0BrCe4
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLKoCG73w1
「之前為什麼缺席？」謝綠單刀直入地問。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIA0YQJirRB
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjukgbe3VSC
「討厭人多的地方。」李晴煬簡單回答。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEEiVpnpjP
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIYGJ6uAsx
「今年又為什麼來？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1FDxQvZP0
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBaCxid3VB
「見見世面。」李晴煬聳肩，「不能一直窩在家裡。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYYJTgL386
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rUxLsdk0r
謝綠沉默。李晴煬覺得剛才的氣氛不錯，換他問：「妳呢？每年都來？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpdyw8uSG3
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsG6Dj3HQzk
「八歲開始，這是第三次。」謝綠沒有逃避他的問題，老實回答。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0MTk13ozL
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4SmMRcm89
「為什麼？」李晴煬看著謝綠厭世的臉，「妳不像喜歡這種場合的人。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwYYsciWZt
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xsQJO7EoZ
「還能因為什麼？我是被拖來的。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwYLKSwdG9
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNACIOUxbJ9
李晴煬聽見謝綠嘆氣的聲音。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvf5rJHmwW
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2YeXGVtmU
「在場的人，妳都認識嗎？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65oXPz8MQQ
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XgYCJg6xB
謝綠一定知道十大家族的事，李晴煬決定問問，以免氣氛又變尷尬。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsSgPt9GOR
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSACFXwOtq
「大部分知道。」謝綠看向他，「你都不認識？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpmTlUCssP
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQ83DorIFx
李晴煬點頭。謝綠沉默幾秒，「好吧。」帶李晴煬去角落，好一次看到全部的人。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKH1UPr6Is
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lYKOBI6xA
「我一直很想問。」前往角落的路上，謝綠上上下下審視他一番，「李門的穿衣品味都這麼怪？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePhYRuhzDy
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEV2zr0Qu1
李晴煬想回答「妳以為我願意嗎？」但不像自己會說的話，改用挑釁的語氣：「怎麼？本少爺這樣不好看？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghEzm5miot
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSur9kBMmF
「嗯。」謝綠秒答，補了句：「活像個娘炮。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgphtT7nJEx
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECYjMuL067
「娘炮」兩字像一隻箭，狠狠從李晴煬胸前穿了過去。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zdWInB9oV
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCy31JYgQAX
「妳的穿衣品味才奇怪！哪有人古裝下面搭短裙！」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RF5At2ZAm
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbHcJfN3qr
「比較好活動。」謝綠哼了一聲，「我父親都沒說什麼，你管那麼多幹嘛？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MxGdQ9dwG
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMD29yMjWLw
「妳……！」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdN6OSiJ7a
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1tbHfIuUo
「啊，這兒就行了，要從哪一家開始介紹呢……？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkBQ5FpTWr
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fA1DCcQ9N
謝綠規避掉話題。雖然表情不多、年紀又小，但她講話很不客氣，顯然沒在怕李晴煬。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8mRA9PTyM
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vc3ZKlr0C
李晴煬撇了撇嘴，順著謝綠手指的方向看去──那群穿醫師袍的年輕人。李晴煬率先說：「希波克拉底一脈。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzskoaFz0Z
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6Sb4LeDw3
「你知道？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcE5sOja3Xp
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3uKrahDrG
「聽來的。」李晴煬說：「詳細不清楚。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ8HsOPDot
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jbTDmSLgI
「嗯，看來我高估你了。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoKemPMNpH
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5TptFY4lak
李晴煬的嘴角抽動幾下。謝綠不理他，專心介紹：572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt17MFuYSRG
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPO0GZYbvw
「希波克拉底一脈，十大家族第九，擅長領域是醫學，家族成員都是醫生、藥劑師、法醫、醫檢師……全世界的醫院，背後的經營者都是他們。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJyrrk5ijq
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAK57HoYSJ
謝綠雙手環胸，用一種非常帥氣的姿勢，靠在牆上。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaG2ZofcALz
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5PVJwH4fY
「傳說他們的家族成員，全是古希臘時代的醫學大師──希波克拉底的後代。但年代久遠，沒有統一姓氏，才用祖先的名字統稱。」謝綠說。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMne7wruL0q
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3jCjy3f4h
「他們平常都這樣，穿醫師袍晃來晃去？」李晴煬問。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXs26jHmT3
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eehOXp419
「每個家族都有自己的穿衣風格。希波克拉底一脈以醫生為榮，醫師袍是身分的象徵。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr2LKNaHT7
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ngWL80R4b
謝綠的眼睛改看向另一群人。李晴煬順著她的視線看去──把滾筒衛生紙裹在身上的貴婦。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8TnaM1Aks
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZYcuVMMen
「雷蒙一家。」謝綠說：「十大家族第八，時尚業的壟斷者。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8inCSKxk8Q
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTWCkgF9NT
「時…時尚？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGIeh1PfGe
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgi9mXjLs1u
李晴煬挑眉。不只捲筒衛生紙，有人的髮型像花椰菜，有人的洋裝像菜瓜布，還有一個女人的披肩是黑色垃圾袋。時尚真難懂。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMbWZMucRw
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ6pIRNyts
「今年算收斂了。」謝綠看出李晴煬的疑惑，告訴他：「我去年，看過把色鉛筆插在頭上的。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwtanZ83AX
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueT0UUnGxN
「穿這種衣服還能笑……要是本少爺，恨不得死了個算了。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQYvZXD2pl
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeHhfhFVsr
李晴煬說完，聽見謝綠發出輕輕的笑聲。沒想到她會笑──李晴煬心想，心情不自覺好起來。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs69B5Baodh
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWQIjjGAXC
「雷蒙一家旗下的品牌，從服裝到飾品，還有專門培訓藝人的經紀公司；另外，他們家的物流技術也很創新，不少零售店搶著和他們合作。」謝綠故意補充：「而且，他們家的人都很漂亮。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkt4UCLf8K
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhz5qeBQr2
「……不把那身恐怖的衣服脫掉，本少爺無法體會。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQP8zA0g3ok
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrc8VowMaP
視線離開雷蒙一家，李晴煬改看向另一群──正在會場中央表演魔術、射飛鏢、拋彩球的馬戲團人士。晚宴的氣氛之所以活潑，都拜這群小丑所賜。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKh2la0ZlP
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08tVABzMwY
「那又是誰？」李晴煬問謝綠。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvN34nvkN1x
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iMKxMgTi1
「史密斯馬戲團，十大家族第七，慈善事業。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QkJiEBNYl
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbLPX6f8Qg
謝綠說完，其中一名史密斯變出一堆彩色氣球，逗得周遭人笑聲不斷、表情又驚又喜。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNB1V0zVdl
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡry1FClO6ZU
「史密斯居無定所，他們在全世界巡迴演出，收入都拿去照顧弱勢，是聲望很高的家族，但也因為這樣，他們不是很富有。」謝綠說。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVPGhY1PZL
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlUoomCymz
「聽起來很偉大。」李晴煬附和。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMItS5o3Lr
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xN1RTEXjk
「坦白說，他們挺奇妙的。聖誕晚宴是史密斯少數參加的活動，其他正式場合，一概不參加。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKb6D8jpJV
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxJOED7p2A
介紹完，謝綠的手指向另一群人。李晴煬剛好想問，畢竟，他看那群光速戰士很久了。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzerOhlui0b
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5anohfLof
「白與金，統稱Platinum。白家壟斷科技，金家壟斷軍火，兩家因為婚姻關係結合。十大家族第五和第六，是非常強的軍火聯盟，絕對不容小覷。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTZaOqOP5m
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrVPAQug08
李晴煬對他們的服裝更感興趣。謝氏像武俠小說的角色，Platinum則是遊戲，會發射高速激光的那種。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbcMa3wBia
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHnygqHlNn
「他們漂浮在空中？」李晴煬踮腳尖，試著看清楚。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdLoKyw4M1
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JftZhOQkr
「嗯，他們腳底的投影圖騰，那是漂浮裝置。」謝綠說。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEmeFxmG0u
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14HODWPMKZ
「背上那又是什麼？翅膀？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9WgaaJZ1x
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKAAkpIUeE
「那也是投影，圖案會隨他們的情緒變化……你看，變成橘色了，那個人現在心情很好。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjSbpFBUbj
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZu1MVxRyq
Platinum的穿衣風格非常前衛。移動時，兩腳懸浮在空中，衣服還會飄起來，浮空時的畫面很好看，但科技感太強，給人的感覺很不真實。明明是人類，卻把自己弄得像機器人。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9ljQs8GGF
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLbbQuB78y
「黑色教袍的是薩拉凱爾教、十八世紀貴族打扮的是李門、像從漢朝穿越來的是謝氏……這些你都知道了。」謝綠把胸前的手放下來，看著李晴煬的臉，「還有不知道的嗎？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEp5ImyyfNz
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeNcPFMxu5
「妳怎麼只介紹八個？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTE6GR1j0PX
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulGBucBnPk
李晴煬發現，前後的高宇維與夏家，謝綠都沒有說。聽完他的問題，謝綠意味深長地陷入沉默，沉默持續了一陣子。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N46zQiqyT
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykSTlZJpou
「沒介紹的兩家，都沒有出席。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxTFTMX7X3
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMYSHEcZbz
不等李晴煬問，謝綠就告訴他：572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZp0PR1KX7
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAKxdaLRQd
「夏家……十大家族第十，是非常奇怪的家族。他們比高宇維還神秘，沒有人知道他們在做什麼、裡面有誰，連他們住在哪都不知道。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQEdh08zUk
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DPW3tHqtn
「這樣也算十大家族？」李晴煬立刻問。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFavoqNIRE
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlwJJDHjlo
「我也不知道，但神秘歸神秘，他們也沒做什麼。」謝綠聳肩。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96DPG0nh7f
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFMrrryCpx
「高宇維呢？」問完夏家，李晴煬再問另一個缺席者：「他這麼跩，這種場合都不來？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvC4cWY8g1J
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDhClu5Qmf
「別說『這種場合』，高宇維連自己的活動都不出席。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUivQEQImmC
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxL1limbBU
謝綠說，似是對高宇維的缺席見怪不怪。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1BzGkltvv
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8LeNRIZvH
「我不知道怎麼說，高宇維好像不喜歡其他家族，想和我們劃清關係，可是──」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKebc8OSWU
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFHSR5ugZy
謝綠把話停在這兒。她的眼神突然變得十分銳利、似乎在警戒什麼。李晴煬順著她的視線看去，赫然對上一雙眼睛，嚇得他後退兩步。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVExfmKRAwt
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxmbl8LCCK
「……。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyXPCSyI6z
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDooWKXfZ8w
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GvuXgvMZS
一名白色頭髮的男子，正從遠遠的地方看著他們。572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXZ1d7GO0y
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdxHJi5cZJ
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgewsW3JcgE
男子是整個會場，唯一穿著正常西裝的人。他離李晴煬和謝綠很遠，但筆直的視線彷彿要把刺穿。李晴煬不自覺感到緊張，旁邊的謝綠瞪了回去，跟李晴煬說：572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9uMLznfwM
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNRYGIO0Mu
「可是今年，高宇維派他的親信來了。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqvywJ2wv5
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJfJewi0EK
謝綠不敢掉以輕心，就怕一不留神，男子會做出不利她的舉動。李晴煬問謝綠：「親信？」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy9eX7WWhVV
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb7EHdjXs4
「對，親信──你聽過神與畜吧？他是第一幹部、地位僅次於高宇維。」572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lSOogLXV3
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp1l1iUSDk
謝綠的雙刀已經蓄勢待發。她一手握住刀柄，說出那個禁忌的名字──572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfn3cH9KVOX
572Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWa5EYGhJm
