昨夜灑落的大雨今天形成遍地水窪，像開出了傳送門連接另一片天空。炎熱的陽光扭曲空間，整座廢城仿如蒸籠。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuYo2gBxCh
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sUTs2zWRV
祐嘉沐浴在豔陽下，人工皮膚感受著透心温暖。換轉是原型的她，因為害怕曬黑，馬上就會躲進陰影裡或打傘遮陽。能毫無顧慮地體驗陽光的舒服，算是仿真人專屬的小確幸吧。也許，在世界的另一角，她的姊妹會如此想道。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVSWbOrPJv
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetuvNeCfhw
沉甸甸的背包讓祐嘉覺得自己矮了幾分，區區半打能量飲品便足以令她吃力。仿真情人的力量比常人低，而催生這項設計的罪魁禍首就在眼前。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpoCmSdZbL
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsYNwb9XpE
紅楓的背包很小，只裝了些小型輕巧工具。她的力量比祐嘉還要弱，甚至連把毛巾扭乾也做不到。男人索求紅楓病態的愛，又為了自身安全而加諸限制，這副扭曲的慾望體現不禁讓她聯想到河豚刺身。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1rW2AS3Q8
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWUjKGGp93
兩人在街道中央走著，泰然的接受午陽的暴曬。直到熟悉的冰室招牌映入眼簾，紅楓的步伐腼腆的減慢。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv82GEoi44u
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaputsIwSpU
「我從後門進入，待會再見。」她說。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfO0BM2dVH
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Rmgulvo6G
祐嘉急忙拉住紅楓的肩膀，好像遲一秒她便會霧化消失。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYs4Dw85STC
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEdDGM8Q3g
「一起走正門吧。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFia1vKELf
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUjfLKDXHz
紅楓扭頭過來，臉上沒有表情，｢我沒所謂，只是，舖裡的空氣會因此變得難聞。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWw9lEMaQqN
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3IEpWP3dm
「沒關係，我會幫你，是時候讓大家化解誤會。關係總不能一直僵持下去，猜疑只會徒增大家的壓力。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sNszpNYZz
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjbfNXfXim
祐嘉推著紅楓的背，一同跨進冰室正門。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqYmf0hiR3
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBh81vFzoJW
「歡迎光臨！請問幾位！」智賀從座位上跳起來，模仿侍應的口吻。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ig9FQDdiO
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTimyj2XyK
「兩位。 」試圖活絡氣氛的祐嘉應道。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyF6A1BZau3
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbdHSzlO6So
「一段時間沒見，原來是你。」櫻看到祐嘉自然的笑了，然而，當視線移到她的身後，那新月般的笑容立即躲進積雲後。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSayoIwUruC
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHCwE9Ofm4
果不其然，紅楓的出現像扔下一顆臭彈，眾人的臉色都難看起來。(除了智賀，她的臉是另一種意義的難看。)紅楓本人卻是愛理不理，對著玻璃門自顧自的整理瀏海。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpbhJ1IOnO
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4cSP1sdtb
「你們準備外出嗎？」她看見櫻背著背包，身後的安德魯和小熊也一副整裝待發的樣子。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSc9hr0Xwp
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglkB6IP9Ta
抓住話題，櫻擠出笑容說下去，｢是啊，我們要去南部探險。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8jNo6eZyI
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXL1XDJdngj
「探險！」小熊神情興奮的高舉雙手。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqV05XUSN2t
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcJJvfJokl
「其實是去收集能量飲品。」安德魯拍拍小熊的肩膀說。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAl3xoRcyJs
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6GePwn76v
「辛苦了，你們是我們之中最壯的。」祐嘉向背包比了比，｢這一點點的量便讓我吃不消。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpCHnI2T9i
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9GIVYCNyR
櫻笑得更開，舉手撐起不存在的二頭肌，｢體力活就交給我們吧！｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9g8yZ94Ol
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyBRpwWOv6
「喔！」小熊有樣學樣。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRKRHPHqRM
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlTX8aH1rj
「小熊還需要些日子呢。」安德魯說，｢祐嘉，有沒有甚麼想要的東西？｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ruUVnn7oP
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0frBavazl
「想要就說吧，我們都能找來。」櫻下巴往廂座點了點，那兒坐著亞里、友梨和智賀，桌面上擺著一副飛行棋。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yxSxRV2q7
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzc9LOTHrcx
「嗯……」祐嘉單手托腮假裝思考，她並無特別想要的東西，但為了把話題接下去……「小說和漫畫都可以，能消磨漫漫長夜的精神食糧。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6BCjmMqtH
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0RiP07we7
「好！幫你找一套充滿力量的磚頭書。」櫻爽快答應。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPfPNTq4Jx
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmgnhXZPbW
祐嘉轉頭，問紅楓：「你呢？」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOv0dUeipb
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5K30IRaGZ7
此料不及的櫻唐突收起了笑臉，如此反應早在祐嘉預期之內。即使自己會被厭惡，她也想協助紅楓盡快融入團體，而不是當匹離群小羊。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZWevGB4hB
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsXHEwjRCi
「是呢，那麼……」紅楓指尖撩著髮絲打轉，｢透明的魚絲和手套，能找到嗎？｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOvfgSDFud
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVISCiX3404
「啊，我正好知道那兒有。｣櫻努力維持平靜的笑容，｢你喜歡釣魚嗎？」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQvWHgwSsq
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4xHCZJZG7
紅楓烏黑的眼睛遠去，嘴角詭異地上彎，｢是啊，釣魚呢。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0I3wWKlbi
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUhNfyPrVZ
另一邊廂，智賀骰到六，她拿起棋子走了六步。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuOCaep0DR
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKE6HOTO1a6
踏 踏 踏 踏 踏 踏306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdLmjxmvl4
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIK14WXQ5s
「哈哈，她在開玩笑。」祐嘉搭著紅楓的肩膀猛晃，讓她的辮子像鐘擺搬晃動，｢這傢伙是很幽默的。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qISGrgleT
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqmLUwyQEd
櫻的唇角抖動，像嘴裡含住蒼蠅。
「我們去跟大小姐打招呼，祝你們一路順風。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbx1WCHi8jV
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hmaE5sf4K
接著，祐嘉帶住紅楓和窘態逃進了防煙門。她按著胸脯，似要壓停亂顫的心律。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqo9scbx3Z
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoo55FlyCif
「你啊，我把球傳給你，不是要你對她們用扣殺。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqv3DLkcpNQ

「開玩笑而已。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrg2WHvWsGL

「雖然這種說法很失禮，但你要顧及自己的身份再開玩笑啊。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WOFK7wO7z
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEev7XeEVwS
「我有納入考慮，所以笑點才成立。」她推眼鏡。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxInYGCYVGD
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Fo7SB1QYN
祐嘉給她一個白眼，｢有時，我不禁懷疑你真的是那個惡名昭彰的紅楓嗎？總覺得性格和印象完全對不上。｣她往廚房步去。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcLHWuErng
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI59EXufcPL
「我的本性要在情人認證後才能啟動，現在就像——」「像心理測驗，你之前說過了。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluQ9i8fQ4Z
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfeDWg632Q
二人通過走廊，恬靜的空氣使她們也不自覺的放輕腳步，空氣中傳來低語，隱約聽見是大小姐和昌姐的對話。祐嘉無意偷聽，只是她們靠得夠近，而廚房裡的二人又剛好沒注意到。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WMNyDEc0o
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PkKIvll8e
廚房的正中央，二人站在同一個影子裡。昌姐抱著大小姐，兩手摟住她的後腰，高大的身軀令她的站姿略為駝背。昌姐背對二人，看不見表情。大小姐閉著眼，慈祥的臉朝向上，枕著昌姐的秀髮，手貼住她寬大的後背。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyTQhcclWp
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOj9af1hQC
「我受夠了。」那柔弱的嗓子，無法相信出自昌姐。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7hVhnFgXq
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBppSNK4LFo
「你已經做得很好。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJP9Tp3izo

「我不要了，一秒都不想繼續。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVoZxaIQSI

「雙日，我的乖女孩，從少就愛撒嬌。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nvLKQMp7W
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwOCGdsBEq
祐嘉感覺耳根熱得要著火，燒融連接下顎的螺絲，整個下巴掉到地上。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIY6DopSIX
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4463GzsX6
昌姐的背影突然一顫，勢如猛虎扭頭。兩人及時縮進牆裡，空氣飄來沉實的腳步。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubXlL6uL2o
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiST8JiXbDc
「哇，我們撞中了最糟糕的時刻。」祐嘉掩著紅透的臉，｢怎麼辦？怎麼辦？怎麼辦？裝作沒看見嗎？藉口！快找藉口！｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUQFHpIziQ
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1SN9vaVTs
當祐嘉心亂如麻時，紅楓轉身走開。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxPTuBSQxG
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoc8d5LX9G
「紅…等等我！」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqbdvs2Zom
語未畢，紅楓一手把鐵架上的碗碟掃到地上。刺耳的碎裂聲，把祐嘉的理智通通吹飛。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBFhPCU739
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhF6cKXvHZ
「你們……」昌姐從牆後跳出，目光迷離，衣衫不整，髮絲紊亂，氣喘吁吁吐著白霞。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfANWTdUe0c
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGehuTiQztb
「祐嘉，笨手笨腳。」紅楓指住她尖聲譴責。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXnNkLRd4w
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzkSKnHLhX
「吓！」祐嘉感到天旋地轉，腦海上刮起一場猛烈的颱風。一道雷直劈海面，電到祐嘉内心深處。｢哎呀！看我多不走心！衣服勾到都沒注意！｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡap44Zf0ihx
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FSl6MKf1q
昌姐的胸腔激烈的起伏，視線在二人身上彈跳，她長吐口氣，似是接受了解釋，｢進來吧，這兒我待會再收拾。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoo1NBY2AqA
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCx3152uaf
「真的非常抱歉。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNHnko0OT6
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmU83aFqQQt
她們走入廚房，昌姐接過祐嘉的背包，把能量飲品放進斷電的冰箱裡，大小姐臉不紅氣不喘的站在原位。見到二人，她搬出社交說辭噓寒一番，祐嘉也機械式的回應。恐懼迫人成長，她的說話能力突飛猛進，好像只要停止說話，那頭名叫難勘的怪獸便會甦醒，一口把眾人咬死。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54NnRP3uaC
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpd1xAl5Pc
等到氣氛緩和了，大小姐發下命令：｢昌，空罐子累積不少，應該要拿去丟掉清理。祐嘉，可以去幫忙嗎？｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDKCoUgYUE
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtq3gyGoydp
「舉手之勞。」祐嘉說。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ERZBt4eay
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQVjulAWco
兩人提起牆角的兩袋垃圾，走出廚房，往走廊的另一邊，從後門離去。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPmRzhBCo5
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpxzPhZcVo
所謂的丟垃圾只是幌子，目的是合理化祐嘉和昌姐離開廚房(脱離監視) 的理由。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx09BajodiW
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzkJImrwuB
她們轉進暗巷，這裡經確認沒有監視器，算是意義上的『安全室』。
昌姐把垃圾丟進大型收集箱内。她半拉開手套，望著手心對錶，｢我們有五分鐘，請長話短說。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo343WqP8yg
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSBBeHSyNG
祐嘉從口袋掏出平板，外觀和仿真情人的用戶手冊一樣，然而，那是屬於昌姐的東西。即使外觀相似，內容物卻是天淵之別。她們仿真情人的用戶手冊充其量只是將紙本電子化，比喻來就是唯讀CD-ROM。
昌姐持有的是真正的平板電腦，不只具備太陽能充電功能，性能還是最高規格。通俗地描述，是會讓持有人馬上成為朋友焦點，假如拿著走到街上絕對會被搶的程度。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahsm1ZNAWa
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QRuwbAJWU
「依照吩咐，開著app在廢城逛了一圈。」她把平板交給昌姐，｢這樣就能找到監視器的信號源嗎？｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCZFcH2gK4
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqyF1ZF3VC
「你能放一百萬個安心。」昌撥開瀏海，瞳孔對正平板的前置鏡頭，藍寶石色的瞳孔一閃，便把平板遞給祐嘉，｢地圖。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuNw5GieAZ
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhe4Vv4nrhU
祐嘉聞言從另一邊口袋取出摺成細塊的地圖，攤開來，上面粗糙地畫著廢城的地形。昌姐的指尖在南部位置打圈，｢這兒探測到特別多3C產品，對這裡深入調查。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAFm4IX1Ej
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3sbzCDtW9
「了解。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNE5gygY3O
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywiisdxxSX
「發現可疑的地方也好，別在同一處逗留太久，那兒很可能是監視者的據點，一定要謹慎行事。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyNUQMqBlM
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48gcKzoDtQ
「明白。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8MrW5bWhT
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJadwiQ4iQ7
「另外，」昌姐拉開手套看錶，｢和你的新朋友處得如何？｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAY4a1OBodF
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWMZ1XQtHS
祐嘉立即意會到是說紅楓的事，同時令祐嘉回想起，昌姐曾對紅楓說了很過份的話。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhWUQE9u5N
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucPoAFc3k2
「我們關係融洽，她是個很友善的人。」祐嘉特別注意咬字發音清晰。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Rq3q1OrK7
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9VFoapHhe
「不錯，保持現狀，時刻警惕。時間差不多。」昌姐沒有正眼看她，把手套拉上後轉身便走。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQ89tWPlep
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1N9unPKpKM
「昌姐。」
祐嘉喊住，她停止步伐。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4PXbRPBi9
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHxtnvoJy8
「你曾經叫紅楓去自殺。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASvsboCSMy
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVRljqeXL8
「是。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRv2WL4zpZ
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63jeOT1TZE
發話前，祐嘉預料昌姐會矢口否認，或以語言偽術砌詞詭辯，然而，坦率的態度反而打亂祐嘉節奏。昌姐背靠著牆，雙手合十置於下腹，以沉默催迫她說話。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu5wZ3ty5w
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmsjOLikTe
祐嘉抱胸表示不滿，｢這種話太過份了。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF6kEKW3fX
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKCzRcySpz
昌姐往空中擺手，像那是無關緊要的瑣事，｢我故意煽動她的情緒，假若真的聽話自我了斷，那對我們是最有利的。她要是心生怨恨，我也能在她動手前制止。以上兩項都比現時好，未爆彈可是最危險的。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHwYpSzG2B
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi0EjVbduW
祐嘉不可置信的瞪大了眼睛，她應該清晰地表達了自己是站在紅楓那邊的。但是，昌姐居然毫不修飾地說出刻毒涼薄的話。立場不被尊重，使祐嘉感受到前所未有的屈辱，她想要發火，但木柴是濕的，不能燃燒。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DokzbysJ7
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4v3tgiYerN
「紅楓說，她作為恐怖情人的性格未被啟動。現在，她是無害的。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhsiZEeT0N
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv9HCfOBoY
「現在的她是無害的。」昌姐食指點著下巴，每說一個字便點一下，｢你變相承認她的本性是『有害的』。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32JIIXWn9q
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SPsBJfzmU
「你這是偷換概念！」祐嘉大動作甩手，那是反射性的，出自本能的動作，祐嘉自己也被稍稍嚇到，｢現在的紅楓不是壞人，沒必要視為異己。與其浪費精力向友軍張牙舞爪，倒不如集中精神對付真正的敵人。｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblDYdq6OPB
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1leOjtABdP
昌姐抬高鼻子，似是對她的強烈反應感到意外。｢2077年，你當時幾歲？｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBUy8t8Qov
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRhPFxUKop
十歲，祐嘉馬上換算好答案。但是，真正要思考的，是問題背後的動機。昌姐將要提出論證去打擊祐嘉的立場，直接回應如同空手格擋尖矛，徒勞，且廢掉可以還擊的雙手。
此時問及年齡，難道要以年長者的身份來施壓嗎？不，她有著身為上流人士的高傲，自尊心不容許用人身攻擊此等低級手法。想不通自己的年齡與紅楓有何關聯，祐嘉選擇保持沉默，抱胸，等昌姐接話。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvInQNKtsf3
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCeiHmHITs
「總共十四個，」昌姐沒頭沒腦的說，｢一月兩個，三月一個，五月兩個，八月三個，十二月六個。2077年，死於紅楓系列的人共有十四個，是歷來最多的一年。然而，這只是受害人總數的冰山一角。｣右手手腕反轉朝天，食指指住祐嘉，｢以上是我所提出，證明紅楓系列需要警惕的論據。輪到你了，能證明紅楓不是壞人的論據是？｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbpU4FEX0t
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXDbEmBpwk
大腦晶片高速運算，此時必須謹言慎行，她需要一個鐵打不動的有力論據，足以一擊即中反駁昌姐。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxyN3z0U7J
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiGubbOqh3
「那些都是進行過情人認證的紅楓，和我們身邊的這位完全不同，不能混為一談。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7RYATzomP
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyKVVQZJ60
「把她和她們區分開來的關鍵點是情人認證，的確，沒有進行認證前便傷人的案例。」昌姐點頭，｢換句話說，『情人認證』便是束縛她的枷鎖，能拉住她不跨過紅線的鎖鐐。與鎖對應的是鑰匙，能夠解開枷鎖的鑰匙到底是甚麼？｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHV2sbAY38
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUH6tS6pj9
不等回答，昌姐接著說，｢一個吻，無關愛與慾，單單的物理接觸。啵，好朋友紅楓消失，恐怖情人紅楓登場。她成為她們的一份子，你還能保證她是獨特的嗎？｣306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAekYLu2RB

她們回到廚房，昌姐在門框前停步，祐嘉差點撞上去。她抬頭，究竟是甚麼擋住她？306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7hQzKc6pE
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCTAzCYXyV
比視覺還快的居然是聲音，『滴…踏…』，遍地的液體。站在窪上的紅楓手上拿著刀，刀尖滴著液體。工作檯上躺著一具軀體，液體沿金色的髮絲滴落。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIYzOqPTwG
