「派翠克，為什麼你一直戴口罩呀？」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEpEimMUoT
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTx82e99Djm
「唔，因為感冒……」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtjOkuEyez
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbruFILHW7
「咦？已經一個禮拜了，你還沒好嗎？」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tMjiGOWO5
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbUJVGx5E1
白色襯衫、深藍色夾克、紅色的格子領帶，大家都穿一樣的制服。派翠克人在教室，明明弄了黑髮、戴了口罩，還是被一群人包圍，大家都好奇這位「轉學生」長什麼樣。同學們太熱情，派翠克想低調都難。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4f3S0vMdT
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0dKgZx5T8
「派翠克，朴老師請你到辦公室。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVVCqq4cs2
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeGPZP7nRi
救星出現，二年B班的班長──馬爾科．卡瓦拉羅（Marco Cavallaro），一個黑色短髮的小哥。派翠克總算擺脫人群，到走廊和馬爾科道謝。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBgZoGMi3g
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VtHB9Dg19
「辛苦了，我們班很聒噪，但都不是壞人，希望你不要討厭他們。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hhJWnCgrd
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw43wTMVvPU
馬爾科是班長，也是派翠克的宿舍室友。相較於班上同學，馬爾科沉穩許多，給人的感覺很可靠。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbswYpXRDlD

「陪審團不是普通的艦艇，肉眼看不到它的存在、無法定位座標，只有Platinum自己的導航系統，能找到陪審團的位置。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSKeB5RfmO
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypeNtUxypc
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCCGRC85TR
想起上一次會議，派翠克嘆氣，以為自己會和尼可拉斯一起、在醫務室待命，結果以上皆非；派翠克單獨行動，一個人來寒冷的K區，假扮學生，混入偏僻的莫比烏斯學院。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRtkr8pWdl
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT36ap7VFUU
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2aNSZxpRY
「地表有四台Platinum的飛行器，我們可以用它們前往陪審團，但我們缺少啟動飛行器的晶片。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXlBpkc3wo
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡET94H6ubcq
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXwxCWqcMd
晶片一共四塊，分別藏在不同人體內，被Platinum稱作「證人」。據羅俊所言，證人是被驅逐的研究員，因為食之無味、棄之可惜，Platinum不親自動手，而是透過晶片，讓想來陪審團的外來者處理──典型的金允道作風，完美的借刀殺人。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRKN0kmnIA
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvo0kvvs61
透過蟲子，白欣濛鎖定四名證人的身分，派翠克、MIO、謝綠、江云格負責帶回晶片。因為派翠克的目標證人──李政煥，藏身在這所莫比烏斯學院，尼可拉斯建議他扮學生，不只方便調查，還能看派翠克穿制服，一舉兩得。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplpLfh0FkT
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEuZPz2zpi
「我的天，大家都好年輕……」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukNO31U15c
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXljlZ5FPk6
派翠克走在長廊，校園內充斥歡快的氣息、青春的色彩。高中生聚在一起打遊戲、拿掃把打架、樓梯間談情說愛……想到自己的實際年齡是他們兩倍，派翠克的心情就很複雜。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0Oqyog0vT
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOvHpsZ45O
「打擾了。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq11JAmqhl
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYLFfsF2ia
來到辦公室，派翠克與班級導師──朴賢旭會面。這人不只是老師，也是Knight，學校唯一知道派翠克身分的人，協助派翠克尋找晶片。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddgkxCaXet
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTj5puZtMP
「如何？有進展嗎？」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxbRoXHesK
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrjSg5BgHk
派翠克問。朴賢旭關起門、拉上窗簾，對派翠克的語氣十分恭敬，回答：571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoWd68Comw
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyXz4BtO0b
「抱歉，雷蒙幹事。明明是重要的校務會議，李政煥還是沒出席。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF58k19frgS
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuMnVzUJMX
「他不是校長嗎？」派翠克歪頭，「校長這麼閒，都不用來學校？」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrJvg0y1wn
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0qKwjksFq
「我們地處偏遠，學生人數不多，我想校長他確實……挺閒的。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCSeUqiwQZ
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84ISlsS4et
朴賢旭搔了搔頭。他穿著深棕色的西裝，同學私下叫他「阿旭」，放學會和學生打球，是大家口中的好老師。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JYHGemZIW
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9SibjKOUh
「朴老師，你在莫比烏斯學院多久了？」派翠克問。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZLDOoYY9g
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKZ2UEhIPw
「剛好五年。」朴賢旭回答：「聽說李政煥在這所學校，進行不人道的『半機器』實驗，赫密士幹事命令我調查……但我能力不足，至今仍找不到線索，非常抱歉。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqfs9X6XLA
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCpHsvpCdx
這不能怪他，李政煥待過陪審團，曾是Platinum的研究員，白欣濛說他行事謹慎、不留痕跡。派翠克覺得自己抽到籤王，這敵人不好對付。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryH4l99T8t
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAg4u0bXqMg
「這裡太冷，欣濛的蟲子進不來，李政煥才把學校設在K區。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUCbkj3ZsB
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0syUYDX9wU
轉學一個禮拜，派翠克仍然找不到「校長」。包含朴賢旭在內的老師，都只聽過李政煥的聲音，沒有見過本人。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXqPHLnuP4
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOb8EbAGkp
里奧說，晶片必須一個月內到手，才來得及救出白絃。一個禮拜過去，派翠克這邊毫無進展。他雖然著急，但派翠克心裡清楚，慌張對任務沒有幫助。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkvijivkca
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzhZMdfhuq
「朴老師。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurPGOxTF1p
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYBb4e4ODF
派翠克抬頭，看著天花板說：「學校的消防設備，有定期檢查嗎？」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡek4Aiz1HEd
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKB6tszha5
「有的。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYOlNqbgxj
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvMlZJdKqK
不知道派翠克問這做什麼，朴賢旭還是回答：「K區很冷，為了避免管線結冰，學校每個月都會定期檢查。李政煥重視防災，他很保護學生。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeomFh0vbTZ
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13YzjbUqi3
「……這樣啊。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbZmI8uGhV
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqJA2GphO2
沒有多說，派翠克在心裡盤算最壞的情況。畢竟他繼承的，不是只有水果塔，還有公爵夫人的聰慧。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5U7jxMklB

「這也太──熱了吧！」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7m9JeHerE
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTtylJZqmP
深山步道，太陽直射。李博洋咬著冰棒哀號，旁邊的MIO兩手拿扇子，幫李博洋扇風。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73yASq5Xca
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqwbfadluK
「這點太陽就不行，博洋好弱喔！」MIO嘲笑他。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqXB0E867E
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKmY3F9lzY
「是是是，妳最強，MIO最厲害。」李博洋一臉後悔，「三十幾度大熱天，我竟然聽妳的話穿和服，真是瘋了。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlyHcupBZ6
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzKZqOlr4y
E區是MIO的故鄉，九月還是很熱，對無法離開冷氣房的李博洋而言，走在沒有遮蔽物的山間道路，簡直是酷刑。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoVjZfaxqD
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsq5wSLN7M
「這種地方，真的有Platinum的證人嗎？」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTCzuhAj4D
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxn87GnYmf
李博洋環顧四週。他們所在的山間小路，草長得比MIO還高，但生態良好，有很多昆蟲，白欣濛的情報應該沒錯。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNftrhGoIYs
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnoCu5f0ni
「啊！博洋，你看那邊！」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfyJtyGsdj
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHXog6GbiL
走了兩個小時，MIO指著遠方的樓梯，上面有紅色的鳥居。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyfwIXgOTl
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzj08djW7O
「證人常去的神社，白萌萌沒有騙人！我們快到了！」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡti2S2GBqbe
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYXLLqTe1E
晶片是MIO的任務。李博洋怕她無聊，才陪MIO走這一段，殊不知路這麼長、這麼熱，早知道就不來了。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxP05bdfX0i
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXUhEh4HRa
「我送妳到這，MIO自己去吧。」李博洋揮手，「需要幫忙再說，我會立刻過來。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPziQMBfVI
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzHvJxcPiD
「好喲！博洋拜拜！」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1tU6EnNKA
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUxlheVehI
李博洋的任務是留守仙境大樓。他和MIO道別，隨即啟動白色空間、原地消失。儘管穿和服、踩木屐，MIO依舊充滿幹勁，蹦蹦跳跳走上樓梯，來到鳥居前面，走進神社。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVrcJX04VI
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEXK0bfJP9
「哇！好棒，都是日文耶！」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKsYAG7HNK
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ljSd7OGfa
神社歷史悠久，供奉的神明是稻荷神。雖然面積不大，杳無人煙，卻沒有荒廢的感覺，介紹神社的木板被擦拭乾淨，上面寫著日文，都是MIO看得懂的字。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbA2WB9uAu
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzm4fUBRv1
MIO記得參拜順序，NAGI生前教過她──先去手水舍洗手、漱口，再前往拜殿，鞠躬、投錢、搖鈴鐺。她拍手兩次，閉著眼睛許願，小聲地說：571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbTXsBR4PR
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8OfQPgnUZ
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74MBRsgbq5
「神明大人，MIO現在很幸福。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYUgh4fMA3
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoY1B1OnYqc
「MIO不討厭羅琳娜。因為羅琳娜，MIO才能遇見博洋、和媽媽在一起。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmb4e4uRYM8
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzf11O7kq1g
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4u2fvhzW9
她的願望很簡單：希望大家都快樂。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8MFPmWy1K
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkViTWFvAT
每天吃好吃的東西，和喜歡的人玩遊戲。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMRtampzDp
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYDJVjvEmu
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEyQoI6Ex5
「『遇見你真是太好了』──MIO想跟大家這麼說。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV12JkmYh8U
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkfa5q8lQc
「所以，MIO希望大家都幸福。宇維少爺、晴煬、檸檬……神明大人保佑，大家都要好好的，平安無事。」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KxppsUaDo
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJvUpfLD9V
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQaaWHo7Px
許下願望，MIO再次鞠躬，結束參拜。她在神社亂走，發現這裡種滿銀杏；相信不用多久，視野所及都將是金黃色，一定很漂亮。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaIfdmVAIE
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8iABEBHMe
「……嗯？」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0uSLJhXYVG
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDkMkHk9l8
MIO回頭，看見一名穿著木屐、背著水壺、頭髮斑白的老爺爺。爬完樓梯的老爺爺大口喘氣，正要坐下來休息，他看見站在拜殿前的MIO，手裡的東西竟掉到地上，驚訝到說不出話。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUG5DvR8CD
571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPZA4kXbKE
「なかむら……！？」571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA1YY5JRP7

老爺爺說日文。MIO聽得懂，李博洋聽得懂，假海龜也聽得懂。571Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeDFzf0zWr
