天空掛著濃厚的密雲，拍打海灘的浪花格外灰白。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UFaJdiCXi

廣闊的海灘上圍起一片鹽田。安德魯直起腰，鏟子插在身邊，抹去額頭上不存在的熱汗。她回頭，看著田裡一座座白色尖錐，成功感油然而生。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZja4KySA6E
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVC4uERHDQ
幾天前，祐嘉提出了製作臘肉過冬的計劃。醃製臘肉需要大量的鹽，所以決定以曬鹽的方式用海水製鹽。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRManUgybA8
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQCUqO9dTx
今早來到海灘時，鹽田仿佛遍地積雪，眾人不禁驚嘆連連。安德魯負責將曬乾的鹽疊成小堆；亞里和友梨負責將鹽舀進竹籮裡，方便之後搬回冰室。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNMRfx3FRL
看著不遠處，友梨細小的身影嘗試拉動堆成鹽山的竹籮。竹籮當然紋風不動，感覺她幼細的雙臂會像公仔一樣脫落。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DN9dF89no
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcesaD5VBa
「友梨，你太心急了。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgmVBFKMwC
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVVfcIVezj
安德魯上前，幫忙把竹籮過多的鹽舀走。友梨低著頭，挫敗的小聲道歉。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmLa2SiCaX
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtt7kzdTZJg
「不要緊。」安德魯彎腰曲膝，與友梨視線成水平，發現她的眼中含著淚光，｢你還好嗎？跟亞里吵架了？｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOM5CrI3Ui
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Mi1L7bVW8
她微微點頭，｢我的錯。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgR2rpGOXf
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnL87KchX0J
「嗯嗯，到底發生甚麼事了？能夠告訴我嗎？」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGK5I0n0ZZd
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJJCFbjxsl
冷不防，友梨突然蹲下，安德魯也跟著下去。她低頭飲泣，喉嚨沙啞發不出聲。安德魯甚麼都沒說，只是在身邊靜靜的等待。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAdY0zJb7o
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV56RRfisb
默默的靜待時間流逝，終於，友梨開口：438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xsOgT3CNr
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6wskapXOy
「我對她說謊，隱瞞了絕不能原諒的事實。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrZ9KcyGHt
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0FJ0K4ulh
「我看到友梨非常後悔，你也是情非得已才說謊吧。只要好好解釋和道歉，亞里一定會接納和諒解。」安德魯伸手，｢我陪你，一起去找亞里。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dbcYH65cA
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yrA257NWZ
友梨搖頭，態度決絕，｢情況不是你所想像的。我不會原諒自己。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpREKhPyfu
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98E1C8C9Fe
「可以跟我說嗎？一人計短，二人計長，我們一起想方法解決。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tau3ltD1N
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZYdtCLD5y
友梨望著安德魯，瞳孔宛如倒映星光，可是，微光眨眼即逝，「不行。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6osku4RCK
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXFtZiqSIw
「你們在做甚麼。」無感情的語氣插話進來，平調得聽不出是問句。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkqwjmbz0l
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypFe5HGf5O
安德魯抬頭，看到紅楓。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPft4MXJXl
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAxNlMSI0y
「我原本在釣魚。」紅楓指向遠處的大石，｢你們蹲在這裡做甚麼，要幫忙？｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVf8O6mRopZ
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrd9ja2dKw7
「我沒事。」友梨擦去眼淚站起來，她還對紅楓存有戒心。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFVh0r3zHK
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9trNcpdjvq
友梨想離開，卻被紅楓拉住手腕。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWRyjRU4Vd
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiEu15LRo5
「放手！！別管我！！」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRkdbtJ2O8
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1H4tYXHevS
「嗚……! 」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD48qlzNQc2
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNSmY6NSpK
友梨大吼，把安德魯嚇了一跳。她甩開紅楓，將手抱在胸前，像對方會把整條手臂搶走似的。然後，她又意識到自己反應過大，馬上低頭道歉。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYWbTA8sl9
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUG63GNuKPa
「對不起，我變得越來越不是自己。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1LKpcXN79
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1y0aHk2x2F
此刻的海風格外冷冽，能在人工皮膚上結霜。她們都隱約感受到友梨和亞里之間存在必須化解的矛盾。然而，兩人都拒絕援手，築起肉眼可見的紅牆。想幫忙卻無從入手，帶給她們強烈的挫敗感438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZ4R5BasiH
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUC4WRVMYzO
「差不多到中午了，我們休息一會吧，喝能量飲品補充體力。」安德魯說。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9wLtjGnlR
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ78Uh0FMsB
友梨二話不說，獨自往林子方向走。不遠處的亞里看著她們，安德魯想過去，亞里一聲不吭的往相反方向走開。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3x4PCkJp0N
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGkrEfOf3w
「為甚麼會變成這樣……」安德魯的聲音失去了以往的神采，臉色黯下來，｢兩人明明是感情要好的閨蜜，為甚麼今天會反目成仇。紅楓，你去找亞里談談；我去找友梨談談，首先要弄清楚兩人鬧翻的起因。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZ4zfzpSsB
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb6dZHKzyl
「別。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72jme3K5YN
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNEp1hjU7q
只有一個單字，是拒絕的意思嗎？安德魯不解的皺眉。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7A56fYmtT2
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8o5neQvuHs
「她，她們都很怕我。剛才友梨見到我就想跑。安德魯，起碼友梨願意回應你，我需要你來開解她們。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEt2B6VXMe6
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT1swSZam4
「我嗎？不對，剛剛友梨沒有回答我，她只是說情況不如我想像。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gLbb3lfJp
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMWoT5Wqih
紅楓的眼神像見到魚兒上鉤，立即追問二人的對話內容，安德魯便向她覆述了一遍。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Xy1DbjTyV
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxE57uVNiTy
「是我多管閒事了。」紅楓說。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVez11Wdol
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyjQ5s7bPW
對於她的回應，安德魯感到錯愕，「責任不在你。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbml6rfjUsi
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sMWqNwLZd
「友梨的說話，字裡行間透露著求救的訊息。假如我沒有插話，她就會把事情和盤托出。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfNZOeDDKE
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdfXEqkfRH
「真的嗎？但她沒有正面回覆我的打算啊。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzjkalgefE
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsU0FIDTVfw
「是罪惡感作祟，她屬於任何事情都會先怪責自己的類型。雖然内心渴求救星，但罪惡感讓她覺得自己沒有被救助的資格，應該溺死在内疚之中。
「若然友梨真心不想被幫助，她只需要矢口否認所有問題。『情況不是你所想像的。』這句話真正的意思是：『問題非比尋常地嚴重，聽之前要有心理準備。』。
「可以確定友梨有意趟開心扉，現時只要再推一把，她定將來龍去脈告訴我們。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccvChgUL0D
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVgr4ED77Q
安德魯打量紅楓，表情寫滿了佩服，｢你分析得很透徹，是從那兒練出這一身本領。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Wiu3ZSEyz
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2d4gVUVJa
「我以前在銀行當顧問，看眉毛就能讀懂別人想甚麼。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqmS2JIo0G
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dq7V9KKXe
「怪不得對住大小姐也能面不改容，原來從事金融業的。」安德魯搖搖頭，｢不對，先著眼現時問題。我們去找友梨，呃，但我沒有信心能處理得好。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXg106ogkA
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYiLvNxM7I
「我會陪你。」紅楓說，｢我可以佔主導，你在旁邊附和我的說話。只要你在場，她多小會放下戒心。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKufnx7daO
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKzj55CLry
她們跟著友梨的足印走進林子。裝著能量飲品的袋子原封不動，兩人都沒有來過這裡。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTT081FuxfN
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKZEEwUSxg
「我們等著吧。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9PGBpbkHV
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPxgtJbdd0
安德魯語音剛落，紅楓將食指貼住嘴唇，然後將手放在耳邊。
隱約聽到喘氣聲。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMWfTfKDRH
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JUstMVD4K
友梨的聲音從草叢後傳來。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qzBkAg5yr
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUG798KuQpH
那是她們從未聽過的音調，甚至難以判斷當中帶著的是痛苦，還是其他異樣的感受。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXJAxMBhhO
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnXgrMk6cl
安德魯看向紅楓，如同徵求同意。她淺淺地點頭，做好了心理準備。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRSNTInpxA
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcohzhNAiN3
撥開草叢，看到友梨……438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57gaWfcArE
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlQb9QLDzi
世界變得模糊，像電視機收到雜訊。安德魯掩住嘴巴壓住尖叫，結果還是有半吭漏出指縫。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyd8HuEZbi
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlb4Y54sH7f
友梨驚慌抬頭，撐大的眼眶猶如跌出眼珠。衣袖拉至肩上，手臂暴露出恐怖的傷痕，另一手執著尖銳的石頭。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nHkgL8u4d
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qVysusjgb
沒有多餘的解釋，友梨轉身拔腿——438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80T5EkPHA0
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpVFET2ITr
「不要再逃避！！！」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWhKtuBBEi
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxtI4YBdIo
紅楓大聲震懾，不只是友梨，連安德魯都怔住了。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp73sRtp9lO
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGce0GBmNI
「不要再抑壓感受了！！她是你最重要的人吧！！正視你的情感！！」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Rh3o7WOj3
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZtGomosgE
友梨熱淚盈眶的表情，宛如發問：我配嗎？我值得被原諒嗎？438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkptkb8pxS
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZK0NuHtBe
紅楓以擁抱代替回答。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZwR6AITAm
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nmAVs7hph
友梨再壓不住情緒，崩潰痛哭。紅楓緊緊的抱住她，任由淚水沾濕衣服。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9yxBD3vrZ
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO82C7jdGDV
「對不起……對不起……」已經不知道友梨在向誰道歉。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7gpcgUSSw
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6W23bcR2CX
「感覺好點了嗎？」安德魯蹲在她面前，拿手帕將前臂上難看的液體擦乾，｢無論如何都不應該傷害自己。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGw04KuwYY
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUR1wuriHL
「我…對不起……頭腦好亂……痛可以冷靜……我需要痛……」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡce6qSzEGKy
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z0LtOJdog
「從這些疤痕看來，你已經偷偷做了好多次。我，居然沒有發現。」
安德魯表現得自責；而紅楓看到更多細節。
「疤痕不是自殘造成的。這件事，你不是一個人在做。」她看了安德魯一眼，然後才轉回友梨，平淡的語氣說出結論：｢是亞里做的。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQW61JjhwY
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjYgDqhwgF
安德魯禁不住倒抽一口涼氣，認知再三迎來衝擊。她感到一陣目眩，如果是原型的肉身，也許已經受驚過度而昏倒吧。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkea2N3UzQ
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTDUVKYZQr
「不是這樣！她沒有錯！我不是她的不是這樣！」友梨急住為亞里辯護，說話急速且語無倫次。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ln6JtoSsl
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwYXl4VfYq
紅楓抓緊她的肩膀，要她深呼吸冷靜情緒。等她理順呼吸了，紅楓才開始問：438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvNuR3ZJ0M
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpatHKiC2EH
「甚麼時候開始的？」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpsJeB7IGd
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafs4awKdTa
「亞里第一次出走時，我在一個地下倉庫裡找到她，她當時用玻璃割腕。我們要這樣才能冷靜頭腦，可是，仿真人的義體會麻痺痛覺，傷口再深都不會感受到痛。
「於是我提議讓她割我的手，借同理心的痛來代替肉體上的痛。因為亞里的情緒一直都不穩定，之後我們就做了很多次。直到，直到昨天……」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlsoU0y1v1
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1QjU9aQem
友梨自覺的深吸口氣，同時讓接下來的話在腦中重新整理一次。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPYijiBdnz
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zqGtQttLy
「其實我很早已有所察覺，但我瞞著不說，因為亞里一定接受不了。直到昨天，她終於發現——438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kUXF6g37o
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOSWjYYY23
「我和亞里是姊妹。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaxJ168Yv2
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1hCMnR3Do
意思是二人的原型是血緣上的姊妹嗎？不，對仿真人來說，『姊妹』是另一種意思。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHTxjGb9QK
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dc23WRCNP
「我和亞里是同一個原型的靈魂倒模。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfZ2x4ONIq
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4NlX2SlPh
安德魯恍然大悟的瞪大眼睛，｢你們兩個的確很像，性格和說話方式近乎一模一樣。原來如此，你們本來就是同一個人。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8DOxeVH5t
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtwUzN0R03
紅楓對安德魯點住嘴唇示意安靜；然後轉回友梨要她繼續說。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLU3gS5L0J
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETe1VpOgSn
「每次我讓亞里割腕時，都好像看著自己的手一樣。其實在第一次時我已經猜想我們很可能是同一個人。之後亞里提到自己的過去，我便完全肯定了。
「但是，我最清楚自己，依亞里的精神狀態一定無法接受，所以我才隱瞞不說。而結果，當亞里知道真相後，馬上陷入歇斯底理的恐慌。好不容易平靜下來後，又不願聽我解釋。我們冷戰，關係陷入僵局。我…應該怎樣做……」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkHP6Snt6t
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZoQOE3ASU
友梨說完又要哭了，紅楓輕輕拍背，讓她的心情好過一點。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lCby7D6u1
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBe8DIGc0i
「沒事了，你無須獨個兒承受。」安德魯說，｢我們會幫你，幫助你們。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bTv8oSpfB
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOSo1QfTDb
紅楓點頭，｢我們去找亞里。事情已經明朗化，我可以開導她。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1Fth32elr
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXwl4064en
「謝謝，真的非常感謝你們。｣友梨的眼神依然閃縮，｢真的，可以嗎？」如同確認她們不是騙子。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NgWQVcG3C
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC83WZF9U06
「你現在不就打起精神嗎？」安德魯爽朗的笑著，｢亞里一定也能好起來！因為你們是一樣的嘛！｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIpam5GlUU
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIxjwxasFJ
聽過安德魯的打氣，友梨非但沒有受到鼓舞，反而，臉色一下刷黑，抱頭縮起身體。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibcEAO1KAi
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpX5EcvApN5
「不，不要！不不不不不！！！」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkC5iowxdSo
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMN787khU9t
突然惡化的狀況，害二人都來不及反應。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjO4HyIzvI
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib1HJlL0E9
「救命！快去救亞里！」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90VU8QnJOW
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zesu1NEHV
「友梨！冷靜！」紅楓定住友梨的肩膀，迫她直視自己深邃的黑眼睛，｢我們在這，我們會去救她。告訴我，你想到甚麼？｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oPhoLjP42
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI8wB91xUF
「我們是姊妹，我的想法也是她的想法。快沒時間了——438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtq2c689dt1
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpxElDB4WB
「亞里要去自殺。」
然後按「加至主畫面」
