400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DYEkdgc1z
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkvMFbTGpj
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCllR3vEX0R
「你們想知道哪一方面？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflLu0EpVg1
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMZaAz0buY
艾莉絲問他們。謝綠貪心地回答：「全部，我受夠一知半解了。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRPHWaLw9D
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GDxjs0O8f
「……。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcX98gP9iDe
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNi2L4H3RJ
「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。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxDNWSoxl8
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXem7NWABL
「……。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfePml2mSuw
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99seOSOya9
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkn9IcvbAe
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPXeQQvYAQ
「怎麼了？」謝綠覺得她的視線很奇怪。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2iLzCA0Pj
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EPHv9WiLH
「不，沒什麼。」艾莉絲小聲地說：「原來妳的眼睛是這樣。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaYvgLuhtk
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvk9jYgOnHu
「……？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXoWe3y5Ns
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhFKKE8ru3
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2npAM3jyt
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9Yl9kvO6b
「羅琳娜就是水果塔。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKRk3wvXBr
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8J47P1zqFn
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。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JQa92nbZx
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0CPMzXmxX
「照理說？」江云格聽到關鍵字。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL4nYkvzcR
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWuqTt5M2o
「白絃正在衰弱。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHr1EsoFXpb
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlTz9lqDUQ
艾莉絲用別的稱呼，以此區分白絃的多重身份。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdSxHky603
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZ0EV6UMt5
「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。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrmNNYu9y2
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTEnD42hQo
「什麼機會？」謝綠問。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibExM7GfcR
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvxlHcojxA
「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……」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcg1KddKZrj
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWIFvYxCaL
艾莉絲突然打住，冰冷的表情難得，出現類似困惑的情緒。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0TkfXWwuQ
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42OJ2yZsVu
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lIBcjEpuZ
「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。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJG6bFuWXnm
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2a46fPDV1
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Hv4wMdFcq
「……？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQxGseDd8K
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLCIwWhTfd
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLirITvHjm
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WVmiEOAiZ
「『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？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmuvOXytRB
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTS5GRZ1sJ
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？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRrjtyP9uh
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohKySUIFgZ
「白絃也是這麼說。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHzYtfgRMe
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kVi3f1uo0
艾莉絲抬頭，盯著天花板的一個點。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jhNoxcaMI
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmy4mrXaCr3
「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。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQ1hbpLepI
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KaghCOW5J
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrpzFzVT5t
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEzOnz6ZW0
「宇維少爺，一定還有沒打出來的牌，只是我們不知道。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMfz0M7UsK
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZd8bTlyOa
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTXLnzYQco
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpF4ZCczry
「作為艾莉絲，妳不會想做什麼嗎？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPTX3mVviA
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloI0SjluMV
謝綠突然問，艾莉絲難得眨眼，似乎不明白她在問什麼。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4Dn5lLVRQ
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXZWW20WcR
「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？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLir3uR5Sg
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWftkSlRSDn
「……。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBi2rmAjohs
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeScY62H3B
艾莉絲低頭。她沉默很久，才緩緩開口：「我隨時都會被取代。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgyeaenODz
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4Uvx5V3NL
「什麼？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0FHE92UHW
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkL50bfm3e
「說故事的人是羅琳娜，不是我。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7D8aPcxH88
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEUQXzjFeT
艾莉絲喝了一口拿鐵，今天的第五杯。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRE3X3ngdAP
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOQ3hHzDyc
「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。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3z0MI9Kad
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJE4kLFk8eP
艾莉絲閉上眼睛。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sFZ769LW6
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9TooPFXAu
「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。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6dqpxw4Pu
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0nv0JHN0G
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNr0xyem9kO
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsi26PgmdgP
「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？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMpSSMA8LC
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQ0OKuddub
「……。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwBLc1oFy9
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi22l72zdAw
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZvVLh5klJ
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8veu2xVvT
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxh2aW0se2
「沙利葉。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDapD0R7kJz
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZ0ARwLHCT
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzVgiaE2FO
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TTa3Id95N
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtXxtYFxRh
「羅琳娜，死於，沙利葉。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3MzvI4BRy
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvodrNr64vu
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDafR7PoVkI
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKouuH2C8TF
「沙利葉……」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeS8tz4kfX
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4i7OO7BIY
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEvyXYT84u
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTf9PcSjZIf
「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？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyBRWASlKh
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11HlGcAlql
謝綠也問：「沙利葉到底是誰，羅琳娜為什麼會死於沙利葉？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3YnFv7q2f
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBycgfsvgeo
艾莉絲陷入沉思。這時，賴梓綾又開口：「利維坦。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDcviy4Nu8
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LiIXCqsLK
「……？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKzM7nmeKL
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSawH0MmmA
「沙利葉，回來。」賴梓綾斷斷續續地說：「和，利維坦，一起回來。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqIbn7T7Bf
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFVuykCoi9
「……！」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7tmbhTieO
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7xoC3h8rf
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86e7RJoyvm
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIRzFPMPrz
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPy5pHtuz5y
「我想，小約翰所說的『沙利葉』，就是蜘蛛。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmW4RDAAt62
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nOZ3mQ3Gm
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2YeOkAJ9L
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？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ed0fDzyER
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcVJodAEbF
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。400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzhyojqp2h
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptrTS5JaX7
「瘋帽，沒有跟你們說嗎？」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTNdb37gsx
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl476aVyy1k
艾莉絲停頓，一字一句，說出令人震驚的事實──400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9iKP7TylD
400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc75cza5jBd
「蜘蛛不只一個。」400Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYSvZJeURS
