807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9HpPs9WL3
葛蕾絲、MIO、李博洋、李晴煬四人在三樓等消息，赫密士一從二樓回來，葛蕾絲立刻抓住他的肩膀，問：「怎麼樣？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RBCVrLGrO
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP7rgZXMCK
「小孩被高宇維救回來了。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1uPndi52d
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7RHl5xZUl
赫密士閉上眼睛，「但大嫂沒有。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CqMVE0lrW
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHhpE1HXic
「……！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovqlju7T1T
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftDn43c6yK
葛蕾絲瞪大眼睛，MIO的手鞠掉到地上，李晴煬低下頭，李博洋整個人跪到地上、自責地捶著地板。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvW0u06HQ7P
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIFR6C3dd4
「可惡……！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapOPbiPmrC
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpeyy2WUWA
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8IAqAwLJ4
如果他再強一點。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1ZzhTUs47
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTR6yOYLFv
如果他的白色空間，沒有被紅鶴搶走。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAfHCNE9Gz
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqIuBgwpiQ
他應該可以保護雪檸……他應該要保護雪檸的。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2lWVakLng
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QBeEmYqdn
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDp7fU9vK15
「博洋……」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qyecqevJ3
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq4qLN9LzT
MIO走上前、正想安慰李博洋，葛蕾絲卻衝上來、一拳打在MIO的肚子上──807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR8Gckvkov7
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDK9aARaWzM
「磅！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuevOjvdgq
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JCVPDyBqk
MIO整個人飛出去、撞到一邊的牆壁。所有人都嚇一跳，李晴煬從後面抓住葛蕾絲，驚恐問：「葛蕾絲姊，妳幹嘛！？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduTPoMihxs
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutZe2BVAp8
葛蕾絲把眼淚擦掉，「還不承認嗎？」並用非常恐怖的眼神，瞪著倒在地上的MIO，「大嫂被妳害死了，妳滿意了沒！？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTkIc5GYJH
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbg1JqGChA
葛蕾絲的話讓所有人瞪大眼睛，尤其是李博洋，他不敢相信地問葛蕾絲：「姊，妳這話什麼意思？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8mKECj16z
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LWKlkl1Es
「我老早就覺得奇怪，我怎麼可能用這麼短的時間復活，一定是妳跟什麼人進行了交換！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrApGqaFKH
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0u0WMl6t5
葛蕾絲指著MIO，「是尼可吧！為了讓我立刻復活，代價是另一條懷特的命，我沒說錯吧！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5Vfsm8A4s
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04PIyTyA0X
MIO沒有否認。唯一還保持冷靜的赫密士走上前，「原來如此。」兩手插到口袋，「一命換一命的概念嗎？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F5r2FZbcj
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZ4oLpe7WJ
「尼可一定以為，另一條懷特的命是哥哥，但他沒想到，雪檸肚子裡的孩子也是懷特！」葛蕾絲握緊拳頭，「妳原本要拿檸檬的命『交換』。要不是宇維少爺介入，今天死的就不是雪檸，而是檸檬！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6p7FMmsx7h
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhggiU6nuov
「……要拿誰的命換，不是MIO能決定的。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfVFJpzQWk
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWcYwxE8qx
MIO吃力地說。葛蕾絲這一拳非常痛，她必須摀著肚子，才能坐起來。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLYIZT5Jyr
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xWmCeISFI
「所有的規則、運作，都不是MIO控制，MIO只是實現尼可的願望。」MIO也瞪著葛蕾絲，大聲地說：「MIO並沒有錯！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaTZHk6slW
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLulGqsPjVa
「如果妳有作為神與畜的自覺，」葛蕾絲大吼：「這種可能會殺死成員的『交換』，妳必須拒絕他！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNojtfwDqf
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWfg71m7Vq
「MIO就是MIO，MIO只是在實行MIO的意義！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfx9zb4ghy
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBG59YlNoP
MIO站起來，反問葛蕾絲：「妳為什麼不問尼可？他作為神與畜，為什麼還要和MIO作這種『交換』？妳不怪自己的兒子，把錯都推到MIO身上，公私不分又是誰？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgdKIDo6UU
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtxtujXSQc
「連我都能猜到的事，妳以為我哥會不知道？他自會裁定，哪怕……哪怕哥哥要把尼可殺了，我也不能說什麼。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9IPm6ZB5L
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvPPWkXoLk
葛蕾絲說得心很痛，她警告MIO：「妳做好心理準備，如果哥哥連尼可都殺了，他也不會放過妳！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF48JrNzbIw
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepKWsNChBF
「MIO不怕死。」MIO瞇起眼睛，「打從遇到博洋的那天，MIO就不在乎自己的生死。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnTszoSQNK
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10HeXy5Yv2
葛蕾絲要繼續說，卻被赫密士從後面踹了後膝蓋，害她用非常不帥的姿勢跌到地上。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVurFESIYS
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3l8Iy73vlC
「都什麼時候了還在吵架妳們煩不煩啊？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZDAGdbjFJ
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48LVJiV9hC
赫密士說，視線由上而下，叫她的名字：「MIO。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s5vvcaOKM
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NqkOy1sBE
「……？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡij0R9fEs3h
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKSV6Rvy5D
「我從以前就無法信任妳妳知道為什麼嗎？」赫密士冷冷地說：「因為妳是NAGI的女兒。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBB0szY5Tw6
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla0tkWOLZx
「媽媽？」聽到關鍵字的MIO蹙起眉頭，「跟媽媽有什麼關係？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GBt1MndRc
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZm3JbjEnx
「妳果然什麼都不知道。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEyikLD37J

「當初高宇維要收妳，我極力反對，但他堅持妳什麼都不知道。沒錯，妳真的對自己的母親一無所知。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EfgWYgqRh
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXOllKnJv0
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKgqR84H6X
赫密士看著MIO。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0poqYiThJm
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXX0yednbut
「儘管如此，妳和妳母親非常相似。不服從規矩、搞不清楚狀況、亂用水果塔，甚至，妳蒐集有關強暴的新聞，都是受到妳母親影響，因為她就是在那樣的狀況下，把女兒生下來的。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEKnraZcHK
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFqEv1e2Pi
赫密士突然轉頭，問李晴煬：「你說她的『聲音』是什麼？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRS5PafGOA
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfU75hlvGoQ
「啊？」太突然了，李晴煬沒反應過來。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6mIChQBwz
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKBtEPM3QH
「你不是能聽到大家害怕的聲音嗎？」赫密士額頭爆青筋，「MIO的是什麼？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7n906EO13
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEQnchOmKK
李晴煬終於反應過來。他在心裡罵赫密士，講得不清不楚，要人怎麼立刻回答？807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfs78UfOx2
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp95LVcNpOg
「鈴鐺。」李晴煬告訴赫密士：「『叮鈴鈴』的鈴鐺聲。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43RLJVUuhW
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCU1WZMxCQ
「鈴……鐺？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Mr9lWVU5X
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVjziZ80xh
MIO眨眼，連她自己也不知道為什麼；另一邊的赫密士卻發笑，彎腰，與MIO平視。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkYq3miLHN
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFTRy3N6nn
「妳說妳不怕死，是嗎？那我告訴妳一件比死更可怕的事。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvST5TLaOu
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHqCuWqfiG
赫密士伸出一根手指，點在MIO的額頭上。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjPWRS9DfY
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwJ5S0Hfla
「妳母親，是被人殺死的。」赫密士微笑，「妳還記得嗎？被身上戴鈴鐺的人，打到半死不活。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZsAcvbGWF
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ6f9RBjMK
「……！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV4vlIv8qf

MIO好像想起了什麼。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHk2A071MXk
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9x0NIkuA3P
黑色的人闖入家中，媽媽把她關在浴室。隔著一道門，媽媽的叫聲、鈴鐺的震動聲、骨頭的斷裂聲……媽媽的血從門縫流進來。她害怕地躲在牆角，直到──807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxmhUJSF6B
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopExuNuinq
「再告訴妳一件事。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkqUklJqlx
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreEwzAUeIG
赫密士走到MIO後面，硬是把她的頭，轉向李博洋與李晴煬兩兄弟。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEIBxoBWEv9
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrMJfQAL5t
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlac1PQym75
「那個戴鈴鐺的人，就是李仲翔。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeKjkgSUeu
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHzerbU2pt
「為什麼讓博洋當妳的嚮導──」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgD7fN5d3X
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ohf4YGI5e
「因為高宇維不想讓妳報仇，就是這麼簡單。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHaR6gmYTm
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnyIdQXtek
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERbNBgMhgS
「……。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hxB3HUOzH
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOCsVeuLOq
MIO空洞的眼睛凝視著李博洋。她沒有哭，也沒有鬧，持續這樣的狀態十秒，才低下頭、一個人跑離客廳。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVUtrz5jrj
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOA5ykayqd
「喂，赫密士！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYO7uj3Vgl
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6cKeb6qES
MIO一離開，李晴煬立刻問，口氣很不高興，「你沒事提這幹嘛？刺激MIO造反嗎？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0V1Sa4nv8A
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAV5syJtho
「你太小看她對李博洋的愛了。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjq0lutdrAM
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡituikNNSv3
赫密士恢復平常的語速，「造反倒不至於我只是要她享受這份煎熬畢竟她真的做錯了事。」他吸了一口菸，「而且你不是讀心術達人嗎如果她想造反你一定事先就會知道。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDuW2AVyAm
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6zjcAauP4
「本大爺又不能隨便拿耳機！」李晴煬反駁。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2phgIodDp
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmATkq4GzEy
「放心經過雪檸這件事高宇維遲早會允許你拿。」赫密士說：「我們人越來越多為了確保上下一條心一定會需要一個糾察隊那個人肯定就是你了啊啊竟然要被你這種人竊聽想想也真不爽。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzceqcjgG6
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91djhfXOXO
李晴煬不知道該回應什麼。監聽自己人，如果是高宇維希望的，他當然會毫不猶豫去做，只是難免覺得諷刺。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmuyEcFMs1
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj57x795Vtw
他看向哥哥。李博洋的臉色很差，雪檸的死訊已經讓他很難過，赫密士又來這招、挑撥他和MIO的關係。李晴煬第一次覺得哥哥可憐，他走上前，拍了拍哥哥的肩膀。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPX86j8BUWq
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiEU3djEQP
「……抱歉，弟弟，我有點累。」李博洋低頭，「我先回房間了。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBM0DVZbeUG
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9luzNnvGFi
「你那鬼房間最好能休息。」李晴煬乾脆地說：「去我房間吧，本大爺帶你過去。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YubLcqBeJ
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCKSNxHOTC
「謝謝……」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqTmR1eZgF
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGQhR7bOLM
李博洋真的累了。簡單和大家說過晚安，李晴煬便帶李博洋離開。也在這時，赫密士告訴葛蕾絲：「妳也去休息吧。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgG7EOiXDSr
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFLjunLyNa
「我要等尼可。」葛蕾絲頓了頓，「……如果他還活著。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUmhSfzsGb
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoArmGy8m54
「那我先下去了。」赫密士呿了一聲，「有個白痴為了救小孩把自己的手弄斷我得去看看。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAa6KzYrDfq
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASPHvGjHLK
說完，赫密士離開。背影雖然很不情願，但那股「這是我的責任」的使命感，讓葛蕾絲很是欣慰。相較之下，他兒子真是太不成熟了。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMZIbcUqdU
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUcVuXVEZY
雪檸的死，帶給里奧很大的打擊；加上那個嬰兒，要是傳到十大家族耳裡，肯定會變成各方野心家的目標。未來的神與畜，必須一邊確保檸檬的安全，一邊平定反高派的勢力，還要提防紅鶴……他們需要優秀的成員加入。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRnPhUW2ha
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyGQ1Df7j7
所以，里奧應該不會殺死尼可拉斯……吧？807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtavuD74UES
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCLBqJ4hMh
葛蕾絲坐在沙發，雙手合十，只能在心裡祈禱了。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87TAZGJYMY

807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04JTUl95sI

檸檬已經睡著了。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgY6CGURAxx
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSwQBuDRnf
嬰兒真的好小、好脆弱。抱著手中的小生命，尼可拉斯終於意識到，自己做了多麼殘忍的事。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlSx2Qaf4P
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXMitoIVgS
雪檸已經被安置在冰櫃，里奧還在醫務室外。汗從尼可拉斯的額頭流下來──他知道，這是他的罪、他的報應，他遲早得去面對。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjuw9JD4jZ
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhKzM2VJtM
所以他走過去。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsU4OETP2k

抱著妹妹，來到妹妹的親身父親旁，親手交給他。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQadfxNz3w7

「……。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxuhfgCAlO
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAZ3uRhfow
里奧沒有說話，默默接過檸檬、凝視她的臉。空氣凝重得像冰塊，尼可拉斯覺得自己快要窒息。他想打破沉默，然而，才剛開口，里奧那雙琉璃色的眼睛瞥了過來，嚇得他當場閉嘴、屏住呼吸。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBZiruAxar
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRN5h5SaETH

真的會死。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4llQDQ0JX

他不會輕易原諒。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGjSMpqJg9
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAFE4P8Wy8
也沒有理由原諒。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZfH7YAKxd

「對…對不起……！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bQqbunrX6

因為害怕、因為愧疚、因為悲傷……尼可拉斯的眼淚流下來。他整個人跪在里奧面前，哭著顫抖。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jwJLBsvTD
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrdrwcl9Oh
「對不起……我知道你沒有理由原諒我，可是……對不起……！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2VgG08GwK
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxCP919D73
想到雪檸，想到他剛出生的妹妹……尼可拉斯的眼淚停不下來，全部落在醫務室的地上。他已經做好死的覺悟。里奧想怎麼殺他都行，他不會反抗。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJTcmGi5LX

里奧不生氣嗎？他當然生氣。只要願意，他隨時都能替雪檸報仇。殺死尼可拉斯就像捏死螞蟻，對里奧來說輕而易舉。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JgisAUfAK

殺了尼可，然後呢？是不是也要殺了MIO？多死兩個人，無法改變雪檸已死的事實，何況追根究柢，該死的人不是他們。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1YKh501qi
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFeImGRb7I

一聲小小的呻吟突然傳來。里奧低頭，似是感覺到爸爸的視線，檸檬竟然醒過來，一雙漂亮的琉璃色緩緩睜開，清澈的眼睛與里奧四目相接。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuV0vRSfVf8

807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosaFWI9Y3Y
再拒絕就不像話了。尼可拉斯乖乖從地上起來、坐到里奧旁邊。正當他不知道該說什麼時，里奧突然問：「小孩應該幾號出生？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVQ0BSrdiF
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcC2bzhWviv
尼可拉斯嚇一跳，沒想到第一個問題是這個。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvSGGNMXAS

「李博洋說的沒錯，我一直用媽媽的死，來合理化自己的不幸。以為用受害者的立場，就能把錯都推給別人、從來不檢討自己；李晴煬都走出來了，相較之下，我真的很差勁。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ewnMIJN4f
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslXrrCe3CA
「所以希望葛蕾絲回來？」里奧問。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8uHuNaQlp
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuic9tWuvrZ
「沒錯，還有……」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6hMIvnIRU
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneaBgz99By
尼可拉斯的表情很掙扎，最後，還是決定說出來──807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjc81FuuL8
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFH2bpLQtKN
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAnGQmpOc9
「我發現，自己喜歡的是男生。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvs6qLogmbw
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW9Do4ahZW
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHo5WFYyWOu
「……！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROMQ3wVNkK
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNDvNu0P3n
看尼可拉斯的表情就知道，他真的鼓起很大的勇氣、才敢說出這件事。里奧承認他嚇到了。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn46VLQm23G
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0QxwkY1i6
「我最近常夢到奇怪的夢，那讓我很……害怕。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqZvdPIWuC
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf3yy7SNDu
尼可拉斯的聲音在抖。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zcZKREthy
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYFjCQPfF8
「我不知道自己怎麼了……感覺身體不是自己的。明明醫學上是很正常的現象，但我當下真的……不知所措，覺得自己很不正常、很恐怖……！」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7KEn0PfTp
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhShhuBYGdy
第一個告訴的人竟然是里奧。尼可拉斯又哭了。他摀著口鼻，努力不發出哭聲；另一方面，里奧終於理解，為什麼尼可拉斯無論如何，都希望葛蕾絲回來。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pqdUTfCkz
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrghVsEmQJw
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VE1pb4ECC
尼可拉斯也是孩子。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUI4b32pAd
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz1L9swc5c
雖然外表、知識超齡，但他只有十七歲。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMt89tX5n8y
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylCQltFRho
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c4CrqN0kl
里奧回想：自己十七歲時，身邊有什麼人？樂觀開朗的妹妹，令人尊敬的父親；再隔一年，他認識了高宇維，兩人從此形影不離。年輕的里奧並不孤獨，不知寂寞為何物；反觀尼可拉斯，葛蕾絲死後，他始終只有自己。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUGpRf76sn
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbug5hn9GuC
「……。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6SMuUcGHJ
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3TfUXoFxg
里奧把手放到尼可拉斯頭上。那一瞬間，尼可拉斯忍不住，像個孩子一樣大哭起來。里奧．懷特也是他的家人──尼可拉斯終於在心裡，承認這一點。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarvyyesM3z
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgsQx2WN7G
「啊。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcNtITkUM0
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknfsaLkePG
突然，檸檬叫了一聲，里奧和尼可拉斯都嚇一跳。循著視線，她正在看尼可拉斯，好像在叫他不要哭；尼可拉斯的眼淚，確實也嚇到縮回去。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQzXSslPCr
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrzxaRHKqA
「……我一直以為睫毛影是商人的噱頭，沒想到是真的。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMdv64u7x6
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09QwAJnLM7
尼可拉斯看著檸檬的眼睛，忍不住讚嘆：「她好漂亮。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRQ4c3LEmi
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWEcz6LfMe
「像媽媽。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCchOqYhcjL
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9UGg4TqnY
里奧用手指逗了逗檸檬。爸爸沒表情，女兒也沒表情，尼可拉斯不知道怎麼形容，那畫面很怪異。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYsMtZ4EjG
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcy5M7vrOH
「……尼可。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl82CCm319h
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsDG47nsO6
里奧突然抬頭，跟尼可拉斯說：「我不在，安琪都交給你。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWppexLLp9J
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKEkNtnMoE
「咦？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvRYBs92Dg
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2HBB40qP3
「葛蕾絲回來，就會跟我行動，我和她會常常不在。你是醫生，宇維不會派太多外出任務，交給你最合適。」里奧說。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6x1tw9SROk
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5JyXXVCu7
「不，這不對吧？我最不適合照顧她，畢竟我……！」尼可拉斯看著檸檬，「我不配當她的哥哥，她應該要恨我。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsdfU2KN7W
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQy7Jgm9SD
里奧明白，但他告訴尼可拉斯：「你要她恨你，我不介意，這跟照顧她不衝突，你是哥哥。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAbLEchjG2
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxNgr3Zs1D
「……。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jZ3bFAcIz
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xqK4BKOpc
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaDaqoqOAx
「討厭的哥哥」。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxstpP49dw
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGabzkSuO9y
尼可拉斯腦中，閃過這個身分。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpEUeBau20
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8QGowBa9k
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQ6YzmQCqY
「……我明白了。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5EL7X4lAa
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4FH0dKnqP
尼可拉斯擦掉眼淚、擦掉淚痕，跟里奧保證：807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3VKTmKyxX
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY6eS0Yzcc
「我會負責教她，讓她變成最出色的人……要是遇到李晴煬那種渣男，包準檸檬能在三秒內，把他打成太監。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvP4XCfKFT
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0c5C9DGvpT
聽到尼可拉斯罵人，里奧知道他的情緒大致平復。他總算解開和尼可拉斯的心結，今後的尼可拉斯也不再拘泥過往。為了雪檸，為了檸檬，為了懷特……他這輩子將奉獻給神與畜。他已經長大，也將帶著這份罪惡感，活下去。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfBby8kqWO
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0ONGLJYt2
「對了。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLDTZkAS7j
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrgLfS99zQ
尼可拉斯想到什麼，尷尬地問：「我以後，要叫你舅舅嗎？」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAI4t11wVaO
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleCKL34S6M
難以言喻的怪異感，里奧整個雞皮疙瘩都起來。他搖頭，「不接受，太老了。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKxx4qJQ99
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxJr5oNJat
你確實活了很久啊。尼可拉斯心想。要不是高宇維暫停他的時間，現在的里奧應該是具骷髏。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIwp2GZJ3X
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71BRV4rfzI
不過，尼可拉斯也不叫雪檸「舅媽」，是叫大嫂；那麼，對里奧如果不用那個稱呼，對雪檸太不公平了。807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdv4T3Yido
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuM1btgeOk
「以後，還能像這樣聊天嗎？」尼可拉斯終於說出那四個字：「里奧大哥。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt3NHUMeGR
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYInldpUmc
「隨時歡迎。」807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjU6UFmZExL
807Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5nfhuhgYu
說完，里奧低頭，發現檸檬又睡著了。她睡得很熟，似乎，幫忙解決爸爸和哥哥的問題，真的很累。1234 copyright protection803ＰＥＮＡＮＡshuT2xG2iO 尼
