阿圭是個木訥的孩子，話不多，笑容不多。他感到孤獨，想要找個朋友，但也沒勇氣多做一步。身邊人彷彿對他有無盡惡意——學校操場上，體育老師當眾痛罵阿圭手腳不靈活，像龜。走廊裡，學長嘲諷阿圭膽小怕事，像龜。家，父母的話題圍繞著他的長相，說他眼距過寛，像龜。阿圭心裡不是滋味，卻也只得選擇啞忍，像龜。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVetHcMuM64

某天，上學途中，阿圭發現一間新開張的水族店。咦？別的店家開張時定會大鑼大鼓，怎麼這店會那麼靜悄悄的、死氣沉沉的？詭秘感覺油然而生，令人不寒而慄。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh83IvwpfLa
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Yf7K7bwku
阿圭打算轉身離開之際，店裡有道稚嫩童音叫住他：「有興趣進來看看嗎？」358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUFLfv9YPo
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzVWsbnz8Y
阿圭止住腳步，心生猶豫，仔細打量無門的店面。店面沒啥特別，與一般水族店無異。惟定睛瞇眼細望，隱約看見門前有一幅無形水簾。夏風吹過，簾上泛漣，波光粼粼。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOEvRx3ROk
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0I8prAEjE
幻覺？358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxv6GI39Fcj
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsKHjMgeUX
阿圭不敢貿然內進，佇立原地，向內裡的稚童喊問：「這店有沒有甚麼特別的？」358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsK4eVM9my
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvKu82x6dT
「有一隻龜精。」稚童笑說。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1F8LBkl6O
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kvJih6pxQ
阿圭被嚇得心頭一顫，扭頭就走。
翌日，上學路上，阿圭再次走經水族店門前。稚童再次喊話：「有興趣進來看看嗎？」358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6sVUSOEKW
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCf2Yi5j8d
「不了。我不喜歡龜。」阿圭本可不予理會，逕自走過，但他卻莫名其妙地停下步伐，應答稚童。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EcBNceHly
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHDnYlZoP9
「其實我也不喜歡龜，奈何我偏偏與龜有緣。」稚童慨嘆。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYOrq0iV5p
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxjc49qldi
「我也是。」阿圭苦笑，邁步踏進店門。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WiRbcfUUA
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRwYukYvcC
店面盡處有一櫃枱，枱上有一隻小龜和一隻老龜。阿圭與小龜四目交投，彼此眼神如出一轍。阿圭笑了，隨手將一把硬幣置於枱上，然後抱走老龜。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLjvVY6CJF
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeesEIMnfe
踏出店面，世界重歸吵鬧。阿圭驀地記不起自己為何會買下老龜，但時間不容許他再作多想——快要遲到了！他只得帶著老龜回校。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytnGQ43pHR
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTObKUMIcFW
阿圭甫進入學校範圍，學長馬上察覺老龜的存在，上前向阿圭索龜把玩。阿圭不依，對方乾脆強搶。阿圭身細力弱，眼巴巴看著老龜被帶至不知何處去。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iS18Zvaii
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1uDf3g6jm
午飯時間，學長笑咪咪的告訴阿圭，老龜正在操場等待他。阿圭心叫不妙，馬上衝往操場。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqoK0NtcJ7
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGE3m0Xu1Xb
沿路上，同學們不懷好意地或瞟或瞥，背著阿圭竊竊私語。阿圭心急如焚，急步走遍操場每一角落，尋找老龜影蹤。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLUHNsYtxR
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdED4mbNabk
不果。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0W2tPFTEs
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3usFYD6ZVg
午餐時段即將完結，飢腸轆轆的阿圭乏力跌坐種在場邊的槐樹下。綠葉繁盛，樹影婆娑，或搖或擺的斑駁葉影令人眼花撩亂，但阿圭從中看出異樣。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfMpak9Htl
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s8VAj46lH
他不敢置信的抬頭一望——358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMDG3n6vWV
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNaVF9b9wy
老龜的長頸被魚絲緊緊套勒著，懸吊空中，隨風擺、隨風轉，像片葉。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7Mu4BmVlW
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoFsDmzAmh
葉莖斷，葉身落；龜頸斷，龜身落。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeZL3abGrP
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5erdWIwaUN
落地有聲。卜。清脆利落。
「不用那麼在意吧！學長跟你開玩笑而已。」老師暗責阿圭不懂寬容。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu1VRLd8De
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRf4Qvk1Oy
「何必在乎一隻龜？反正花不了多少錢就可以再買一隻。」父母沒興趣關心阿圭，正如他們不認為老龜被殘殺有甚麼大不了。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcewOxNyHUW
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqBb3TUDpb
阿圭默不作聲，像龜。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0NO84dBPc

翌日，上學路上，阿圭再次走經水族店門前。小童再次喊話：「有興趣進來看看嗎？」358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQKMqheQ80
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10eyDpPc7f
阿圭不假思索，大步邁進。店內，無數龜隻被魚絲懸吊著，身首狀態介於「連」與「斷」之間。店面盡處的櫃枱上還是那隻小龜。阿圭與小龜四目交投，彼此眼神如出一轍。小龜笑了，背起阿圭，一同潛入位於櫃後的深水池中。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7JjacPFmO
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1FfCfhDyL
龜的世界。上學的龜，逛店的龜，回家的龜。殘忍的龜，懦弱的龜，無情的龜。殘忍的龜將人類吊死水草上，懦弱的龜懊悔自責卻不敢反抗，無情的龜漠不關心。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGh9NewO62
358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrWMgl1T7F
小龜帶阿圭回到店內，說：「其實我不喜歡龜，奈何我偏偏與龜有緣。」358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMDEPV6JFE

阿圭與小龜四目交投，彼此眼神如出一轍。
阿圭在龜的世界開設寵物店，將父母、老師和學長誘騙到店裡來，再將他們販賣出去。358Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2Iz7ou8zX
