在午前的猛陽照耀下,凌亂的足跡遍佈沙灘。昨天屹立於此的茅屋已經全數拆除,木條一部份舖在地上,砌出巨大的SOS字樣;另一部份充當木柴,升起一溜黑煙劃過清澄的藍色天空。364Please respect copyright.PENANAT1I10ONZRP
364Please respect copyright.PENANA5WIUIZuUJh
SOS不遠處的樹蔭下,祐嘉屈膝而坐,她看著掌上的黑色小塊,回想昨天初秋的說話:364Please respect copyright.PENANAEY6K2br72U
364Please respect copyright.PENANA2TJ1kdT0Wo
「有人在監視我們。雖然不知道監視者的目的,但我們漂流到島上這回事,並不是一場意外。」364Please respect copyright.PENANA9ecffqejJ4
364Please respect copyright.PENANAdHtZUbqat3
「要不要跟大小姐報告,是你的選擇。緊記要謹慎行事。因為,我們不能確定『發現被監視』這回事,是不是監視者們容許的。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAwZmejUAc52
364Please respect copyright.PENANAhwtEI4zwkG
「我會繼續往島裡探索,你們不用費神找我,有新發現我會再回來。」364Please respect copyright.PENANABZLQKzIuAX
364Please respect copyright.PENANAFtLv8A1vTQ
「能量飲品,我拿兩罐囉,當作阻止跳崖的報酬。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAoX5V50q5hK
364Please respect copyright.PENANApU5YyG1ilB
針孔攝錄機在祐嘉的掌心翻來覆去,動作毫無意義,可是祐嘉覺得一旦停下來,就代表自己必須下定決心。364Please respect copyright.PENANAuXbJrjxEAV
364Please respect copyright.PENANAUOO4mwV2V4
把現況告知大小姐是板上釘釘的事情,祐嘉並不質疑其必要性。需要煩惱的點是,如何避過監視,安全地進行報告。364Please respect copyright.PENANAnfxWnDAo5s
364Please respect copyright.PENANAmP2Hjufrc3
沙灘環境空曠,理論上很難設置監視器,應為最佳的對話場地。然而,昨晚開始,大小姐決定將沙灘的據點移師至廢城裡,城中地形複雜,有太多看不見的角落,監視者的視線根本防不勝防。
能夠不驚動監視者,態度自然的把大小姐引到沙灘來,自己的頭腦真的能想出如此慎密的計劃嗎?364Please respect copyright.PENANA40VZJk3rXU
364Please respect copyright.PENANAKSk59JpEHP
換作是Hina會如何應對呢?364Please respect copyright.PENANAi35FNkTlwZ
364Please respect copyright.PENANAcxDgqZiarI
擅於社交的她一定能設計完美說辭,快想想,Hina會怎樣說?364Please respect copyright.PENANAtfNrp1sKdt
364Please respect copyright.PENANAb9OV4id9it
踏過沙子的腳步聲從背後傳來,把祐嘉的心神拉回現實。她將針孔攝錄機收入口袋,轉頭面向步聲的主人……364Please respect copyright.PENANAVrStnQemWG
364Please respect copyright.PENANA70Z3revcOe
人工心臟停頓了兩秒……364Please respect copyright.PENANAL8UHd8Hw6E
364Please respect copyright.PENANARcOM5Dd7lx
黑色少女的影子蓋過祐嘉的臉,鏡片後銳利的眼光直穿她的靈魂之窗。
364Please respect copyright.PENANACKPPoR36My
「紅楓。」祐嘉開聲才發覺自己的喉嚨在顫抖,「找我有事嗎?」364Please respect copyright.PENANAslGgnvwvSz
364Please respect copyright.PENANAq4sfEUcVFm
「我不是叫紅楓,那是我原型的名字。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAHuPvh7jeJD
364Please respect copyright.PENANAUDavdyJVNg
「對不起。」364Please respect copyright.PENANA44iJaN51VT
364Please respect copyright.PENANAHrntMo4x5E
祐嘉反射性的道歉,語氣謙卑得連自己都感到陌生。364Please respect copyright.PENANAdPpm1L3J9I
364Please respect copyright.PENANAGhw0q2KPIj
「現在,一個人嗎?」她說。364Please respect copyright.PENANAAWvRQvLey7
364Please respect copyright.PENANAbQskBHA7vv
「只有我一個。」嘴巴著了魔似的。364Please respect copyright.PENANAydA4XTUd0F
364Please respect copyright.PENANAjBoZ3rJ9Ix
「太好了,沒有人會打擾我們。」364Please respect copyright.PENANANDFz4NtH79
364Please respect copyright.PENANAbk9OEJfT1s
憑空出現一個正方形將紅楓的臉框住。驚訝的眨眼後,祐嘉便意識到那是只有自己看見的電子視窗。鮮豔紅字顯示在正方形旁邊,三角形内的驚嘆號刺眼地閃爍。364Please respect copyright.PENANAJn6yC11vdV

建議:遠離,報警
那是距今二十多年前,一個連原型祐嘉都未出生的時代,發生了一件極為轟動的兇殺案。一男一女於單位内慘遭殺害,兇手是男死者的未婚妻——紅楓。364Please respect copyright.PENANAm7aWCuaiRC
364Please respect copyright.PENANAMZWsLHgz44
她的行兇動機是男方出軌,女死者則是小三。紅楓在審訊中坦誠認罪,最後因為行兇手法殘暴而被判死刑。紅楓放棄上訴,一年後於監獄内接受注射死刑。其名字像墨汁滴入一缸清水般,隨時間丟淡就此被世人遺忘,直到半年後……364Please respect copyright.PENANAsRRn5ka83Z
364Please respect copyright.PENANAZjfYn10Dnl
發生了全球首宗仿真人殺人事件,死者是一男一女,兇手是男方的仿真情人,靈魂倒模的原型是紅楓。364Please respect copyright.PENANA4x1C3VshLG
364Please respect copyright.PENANAr53r0FPQMx
原來,紅楓在犯下駭人聽聞的謀殺以前,曾為籌備結婚費用而進行靈魂倒模。初代仿真情人使用的靈魂倒模為五人,紅楓就是當中的『小鳥依人』型號。
發生紅楓事件時,正是阿馬茲科技公司初推出仿真情人的時期。為避免影響公眾對仿真情人的信心,阿馬茲科技沒有回收紅楓系列,反而刻意隱瞞實情,導致紅楓系列被大量生產。364Please respect copyright.PENANAzPcV0HmoDV
364Please respect copyright.PENANAOExokor8Cu
隨時間經過,類似的謀殺事件持續發生。直到政府司法部起訴阿馬茲科技並進行強制回收,因紅楓系列而受嚴重肢體傷害或死亡人數高達八十人,紅楓系列對認證情人的殺害率為四成。
以前,紅楓是只存在於文字裡的人物,被害人也只是籠統的數字。連身處的年代也不同,活在生死線對岸的人。現在,那個書中人就站在面前,平面資訊徹底化成了立體現實。364Please respect copyright.PENANAMuxQ7pcJo4
364Please respect copyright.PENANAfy04kKbkDr
紅楓雙臂低垂,木訥的站在兩步距離外。祐嘉的手不自然的往半空揮動,試圖關閉警告視窗的舉動引起了紅楓注意。364Please respect copyright.PENANA5jsFflcUM4
364Please respect copyright.PENANALD4LMhRYq6
「關閉視窗的選項在手心。」她提示道。364Please respect copyright.PENANAleAmYrCu59
364Please respect copyright.PENANAKdsMYUh8HP
祐嘉動作生硬的按下掌心内的按鈕,紅楓臉上的正方形終於消失。364Please respect copyright.PENANAojzf0hrgdO
364Please respect copyright.PENANAkDOdvRycBj
「聽說只要我接近到三米内,你們的系統便會開始警報,真是個著重安全的設計。」紅楓的語氣平坦不帶半分感情,無法得知此話到底出於自嘲還是抱怨。364Please respect copyright.PENANAn92qDAb7j5
364Please respect copyright.PENANA1W8qXTKR8t
「是啦,紅光閃個不停很惱人,謝謝你。」祐嘉調整表情,模仿Hina的交際式笑容。然而,從紅楓的眉毛得知,她的模仿相當拙劣。364Please respect copyright.PENANAw8VoaZAYyH
364Please respect copyright.PENANAfXHRlzcVwp
「找我有事嗎?」在氣氛更加尷尬前,她趕緊推進話題。364Please respect copyright.PENANAPU571MAQOD
364Please respect copyright.PENANAOTUCbUp2Ae
「有問題要問你,」她說,「你喜歡Hina嗎?」364Please respect copyright.PENANAZnMRMAKZOG
364Please respect copyright.PENANA29jfqqa3UR
氣氛由尷尬轉變為難以理解。364Please respect copyright.PENANAFbBZnIH2dI
364Please respect copyright.PENANAWGZ8rkRL8z
「哈?」364Please respect copyright.PENANAwbDzvYktkB
364Please respect copyright.PENANA5S18y4njth
相同的問題假如出自櫻或安德魯,甚至是大小姐之口,祐嘉應該會原地爆炸,尷尬得無地自容吧。然而,現在祐嘉的心脈成了水平線,嘴巴如上水的魚般半開半合。364Please respect copyright.PENANA7m6jBxXynl
364Please respect copyright.PENANAu0oN1RH0G4
「我的咬字發音不清晰嗎?」紅楓語氣平淡,更顯字句的壓迫力,「我再問一次,你喜歡Hina嗎?」364Please respect copyright.PENANARCsij2Par5
364Please respect copyright.PENANAhbR9Gi2mqv
祐嘉並非『不懂』回答,她是『不想』回答。感覺無論承認與否,都等同把自己最脆弱的弱點置於刀鋒上。364Please respect copyright.PENANAS06WkIlAi8
364Please respect copyright.PENANAWq9qHGhZDo
她直視紅楓銳利的眼睛,嘗試看透隱藏於瞳孔背後的意圖。她不敢相信自己正在跟殺人犯對視,就像一場眼力的拔河,只要一刻移開視線便輸了,等於向對方示弱。364Please respect copyright.PENANAbuWrhLgDGZ
364Please respect copyright.PENANAOHsUYNzwdn
紅楓的眼睛烏黑深邃,與白皙的眼眶形成強烈對比。線條鮮明的睫毛像長矛列陣,充滿了敵意和侵略性。水珠在眼角凝聚,一條河流劃過了臉頰……364Please respect copyright.PENANAbVpYbD0n0q
364Please respect copyright.PENANAmH4wBDmTQi
她在哭泣……364Please respect copyright.PENANALa6baKTOSk
364Please respect copyright.PENANAWdKf1nRlJ1
紅楓跪到祐嘉面前,緊緊的抱住了她。也許是黑色水手服特別吸熱,讓這個擁抱十分温暖。364Please respect copyright.PENANAvXoAdd5Jlq
364Please respect copyright.PENANAhURjMUXgY3
「那個…這是…甚麼?」祐嘉不知雙手該往那處擺,使姿勢十分彆扭。364Please respect copyright.PENANANOTK5oxFo7
364Please respect copyright.PENANAvRsDyux1cQ
祐嘉慢慢的,試探性的把手降到紅楓背上。她瘦削的身體在顫抖,下巴少氣無力的壓住她的肩膀,在她的耳邊飲泣。364Please respect copyright.PENANAwdRbxBcx5H
364Please respect copyright.PENANArZ8WMUy2MU
「等等,為甚麼要哭?」說話聽回祐嘉耳中,她才發覺自己在哽咽。364Please respect copyright.PENANAqFiuuYgX2O
364Please respect copyright.PENANA8wKfTzD6e8
「為甚麼要哭?」這次,她是問自己。364Please respect copyright.PENANAOvofW5LXS8
364Please respect copyright.PENANA5ywYhmevXs
她仰起脖子,好像就能避免淚水突破表面張力。然而,當熱流劃過臉頰,界線被衝破了。364Please respect copyright.PENANA7wdlog0wlk
364Please respect copyright.PENANAMXigvSSL63
祐嘉放聲嘶叫,十指握起兩個布團,紅楓的上衣也跟著歪斜變形。364Please respect copyright.PENANAS5VOgU29LO
364Please respect copyright.PENANAi3IpL1yqtD
「我知道哭是沒用的……!所以我不哭……!我想要保持理性,我們才認識不到半天…何來的感情基礎讓我崩潰啊……!」364Please respect copyright.PENANAzCZGLp2Feg
364Please respect copyright.PENANAgIK2jS8jYI
去他的理性……364Please respect copyright.PENANACB2BqQjbXi
364Please respect copyright.PENANAC09WzMzO6m
「好奇怪啊!我們是女生啊!但我真的好喜歡Hina!我好想她能復活!即使把我忘記了,我也想和她再次成為朋友!再次成為認證情人!」364Please respect copyright.PENANAzvyFYWVrXH
364Please respect copyright.PENANAny9rauCV4L
紅楓輕輕拍背,抱著哆嗦的祐嘉,「盡情哭吧,沒有人看見。全部發洩出來,我會接受你的一切。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAtXTtOXxEMA
364Please respect copyright.PENANADDDVri2f0r
到底過了多久?沒有人去計算。
也許是十分鐘?或許半個鐘?
不知道。364Please respect copyright.PENANAXnOH18HT1l
364Please respect copyright.PENANA05u9JJE1X0
只是,對祐嘉而言彷如隔世。364Please respect copyright.PENANA5DQqOj1v3A
364Please respect copyright.PENANAoH9OrHLm4T
斷開的理智線重新連接,祐嘉放開手中的布團。紅楓也鬆開了環抱,向後退半個身。364Please respect copyright.PENANAMzAl6qfyer
364Please respect copyright.PENANAUnlYGMoKZb
祐嘉看著紅楓肩上一大片淚痕,罪疚油然而生。364Please respect copyright.PENANApPeuLWV9Be
364Please respect copyright.PENANAgBjct80ZWq
「抱歉。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAmkEtncR8PG
364Please respect copyright.PENANA5o9HlIxFAZ
「不要緊。」她拉住衣領,整理皺巴巴的衣服。364Please respect copyright.PENANAgjsIhNXA9s
364Please respect copyright.PENANAkQm96kF1Yp
祐嘉脫下眼鏡,狼狽的搓揉眼睛將淚水抹去,「Hina說的對,你不是壞人,謝謝。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAYgUgHvIvV5
364Please respect copyright.PENANAHQTkbNHSto
紅楓的表情帶著一點意外,「她,是唯一願意直視我的人。對我這種人,她依然釋出善意。因此,我會為她的離開感到傷心難過。」364Please respect copyright.PENANA52drEqQmv9
364Please respect copyright.PENANAmVdeerNsYo

「為了甚麼?」364Please respect copyright.PENANAcwvg22UKFe
364Please respect copyright.PENANAsHhzLeFeaG
祐嘉的手還在抖,害她不能把眼鏡扶正。鏡框歪歪的架在紅潤的鼻梁上。「我誤信謠言以為你是可怕的人,剛才保持警戒的自己簡直像笨蛋一樣。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAYE8p7Q8AZw
364Please respect copyright.PENANANJs3wA0C8o
紅楓沒有表現明顯的表情,她說,「從昌那兒聽到關於我的事,看來我的原型和同系列的仿真人鬧得滿城風雨。我並非要辯護,只是,她們對我而言都是別的個體,比較像母親和姊妹的感覺。也許我們的思考模式相同,但不代表我會做出和她們一樣的行徑。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAykOg20tJj4
364Please respect copyright.PENANANZQYyuD1ot
「我相信你。在政府執行強制回收時,有不少紅楓系列沒有犯罪紀錄,民間也有不少抗議聲音。我相信你是好的紅楓。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAjujgj17PUf
364Please respect copyright.PENANAhjlStubzF6
「好的紅楓……」她咬住下唇,表現出明顯的焦慮,「難說,有時我也不相信自己。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAiwfiG11po3
364Please respect copyright.PENANAljtupR80uw
祐嘉被弄糊塗了,難道紅楓此行的目的不是破除誤解建立信任嗎?「甚麼意思?」364Please respect copyright.PENANAd6POWmI4Ln
364Please respect copyright.PENANAJsaJh7Bs8u
「我的屬性是『恐怖情人』,是,有的男人就好這一味。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAmTqodezu5m

「慢著,紅楓系列不是停產了嗎?」364Please respect copyright.PENANA7ASEKXaB4M
364Please respect copyright.PENANAf5buQZoW2O
「只是換成地下生產罷了,『禁忌的仿真情人』是鮮明的綽頭,男人肯為此出高價。萬一被抓到,只要說是盗版的便行。話說回來,你認為恐怖情人的關鍵是甚麼?你可以老實說。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAOP6cuGXBPv
364Please respect copyright.PENANAnBhTJpgcpP
「為情傷人?為了獨佔愛人不在乎偏激手段……」祐嘉越說越小聲。364Please respect copyright.PENANAjmlPCLCSEE
364Please respect copyright.PENANAWMa82P7d8n
紅楓沒有表情,應該沒有生氣。364Please respect copyright.PENANAYwkckGfouU
364Please respect copyright.PENANAosp0UZ9hlp
「說對了一半,關鍵點是『情人』的存在。缺乏迷戀對象的我,無法發揮本性。打個比喻,玩心理測驗時沒有符合自己的選項,唯有勉強選一個比較喜歡的,這樣。我作為『恐怖情人』的一面沒有被啟動,就像困在蛹裡不能羽化的……嗯,飛蛾。」364Please respect copyright.PENANA6GwRca4MsX
364Please respect copyright.PENANA5oLKjXsS6s
「必須解除大家的誤會才行。」祐嘉主動拉起紅楓的手,「把你的情況告訴大小姐吧,她很明白事理,一定會願意幫你解釋,讓大家接納你。」364Please respect copyright.PENANABszxeeza1b
364Please respect copyright.PENANAXL5YfwPXXQ
「明白事理嗎……」紅楓臉上閃過一個表情,轉瞬即逝,那是不屑的冷笑,「就這樣吧,她們是值得信賴的人。你無須在意我的感受,我習慣孤獨。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAKdEGy95Lpg
364Please respect copyright.PENANAcrqgAWpTaP
祐嘉全身一抖,好像人工心臟被針扎到,「大小姐跟你說過甚麼嗎?」364Please respect copyright.PENANAgKxzqvdf8x
364Please respect copyright.PENANAdT4TM82e6K
「並非出自她口,是她的僕人說的。答應我,不要因此心存芥蒂,她們是真心想幫助你們的。」364Please respect copyright.PENANArUR5iANZbp

364Please respect copyright.PENANAjwCXqmJXyj
「她說:『自殺吧,這對誰都有益。』。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAgBW2Mu5o6y

「是啊!不行嗎!」364Please respect copyright.PENANAV0BILFRSWF

「好像最近老是聽到這種話。」她抱胸嘀咕。364Please respect copyright.PENANAHYm74qHY1V
364Please respect copyright.PENANARjFmIjPTut
「祐嘉,我心領你的好意,但請不要跟她們對質。她們是高等仿真人,擁有全部原型時的記憶。也許,我的姊妹曾直接或間接傷害過她們。在弄清楚事情的原由前,你不應該先入為主胡亂批判。」364Please respect copyright.PENANAnadxIeQT1Q
364Please respect copyright.PENANAE46gM4v4lP
祐嘉搔搔鼻子,怒火被澆熄而有點失去方向,「既然本人不在乎,我也沒有生氣的基礎了。不過,假如以後被找麻煩,我一定會站在你那邊。」364Please respect copyright.PENANA8AFIp158HQ
364Please respect copyright.PENANADeK4gYgqTE

不明物體把紅楓的視線拉向下,她伸手於沙地上撿起顯眼的黑色方塊。364Please respect copyright.PENANAAuo2z7MTqc
