553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9A2dIQF4FG
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？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxS6m3esYm
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfaZwAEHOE
「小孩被高宇維救回來了。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsQzd5072R
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCj68G8Adcz
赫密士閉上眼睛，「但大嫂沒有。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzvugykQFk
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBEoCO1Tl6
「……！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWghtg45PwP
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmLOMeoGgi
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINcc7IA2Yi
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcy0bnDJEl2
「可惡……！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yJA1a2GBt
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtYHOq4ev3
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVEzo82imW
如果他再強一點。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypC7jjdNID
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu5sglopMu
如果他的白色空間，沒有被紅鶴搶走。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1TkITgCwW
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPIQ0AH2EK
他應該可以保護雪檸……他應該要保護雪檸的。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHWoSFDVfh

553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FLRWUHtXo
「博洋……」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mJKNWrKx0
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlR6sr1xkK
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──553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9K2ciTMG7j
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRf7MJGbK6
「磅！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVa2yDoA1LJ
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmL1CqK7V6P
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！？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEs146cyt7
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9MYrS7W9w
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！？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtNYzAexqh
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTnjkKEc2A
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？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcpU82IIAE
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZOsnYuXH7
「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！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjl8dGdcmPV
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRW03FEgXt
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！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WOX0jivEa
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKt7VUTjHD
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？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dgfZPJqy9
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4GZ2Wt3YA
「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！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsbufuXFH0
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6Yg46A1rD
「……要拿誰的命換，不是MIO能決定的。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEpuZj1F7D
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn49rPLQb5I
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xZMizmCto
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsur7FKQut
「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！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfd5fE7r4fc
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11ookZtaW7
「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！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2LTMzqfmK
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZ1oKH979s
「MIO就是MIO，MIO只是在實行MIO的意義！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvevhaJiM8
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVkQKevlYO
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？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEaHmJYfcD
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk89vA9FZUR
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3kX9xOie6
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7tLNoIubk
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！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzz9TwQNUk
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85t8ZDk01F
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvD129eRk4J
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKk2zmYO9u
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQzT78ON8S
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqP47kbBEC7
「都什麼時候了還在吵架妳們煩不煩啊？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnAo6Cvb95
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcGxyTVQv5
赫密士說，視線由上而下，叫她的名字：「MIO。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5AE8847UC
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPi0yvvPkuw
「……？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImFVN2fj60
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4McfuUqv56
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9AmtL0Vjp
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8s3tvPY8fb
「媽媽？」聽到關鍵字的MIO蹙起眉頭，「跟媽媽有什麼關係？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMQ5fnkhuU
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM33V8C2FxM
「妳果然什麼都不知道。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2CUomJZPA

「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUxUVsfyju
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs01Qa4ASUc
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSX0LZLhv1
赫密士看著MIO。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMKmySfSSc
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HvxohgOy5
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hV9OGGLO2
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h5xpcZqdT
赫密士突然轉頭，問李晴煬：「你說她的『聲音』是什麼？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORGtujEBnF
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkALFWc1E8
「啊？」太突然了，李晴煬沒反應過來。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1CpjAWQzL
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4iGtKNFHa
「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？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbpacLPk2P
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lSRIOVB49
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？553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHORpGqhSW
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuetv8nLmC
「鈴鐺。」李晴煬告訴赫密士：「『叮鈴鈴』的鈴鐺聲。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI51eCe0Uvj
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYU5PgyIoRG
「鈴……鐺？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYzxLtF8ER
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvwG4D6lqs
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfnyzZtEYV
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBQRCEvuDl
「妳說妳不怕死，是嗎？那我告訴妳一件比死更可怕的事。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZeK4injlze
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMCEzE6MzT
赫密士伸出一根手指，點在MIO的額頭上。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPEP6O1oFI
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbrHyV63Kq
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDW7NS9tfF
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksp2qoBQ4I
「……！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhfy1IvO1P
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5sMobP6fA
MIO好像想起了什麼。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N59Fhm0jU
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8G6zYiklc
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──553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ615eKQfO0N
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCA2au1EIU
「再告訴妳一件事。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfs3YdNzSYP
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98nxs3lVz1
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxnRk9k3I9
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReHfjaLrET
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0EkSobTAV
「那個戴鈴鐺的人，就是李仲翔。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRrbEXfTGB
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYI38PkoWT
「為什麼讓博洋當妳的嚮導──」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1VvBoP0br
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYwsQnVkYJ
「因為高宇維不想讓妳報仇，就是這麼簡單。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmS3lJvhfqT
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkdWuEFahR
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9Hnd4ZT00
「……。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZgx3BNESA
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBxrN2xEHk
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhM3cGuVs4d
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbkb31l3kz
「喂，赫密士！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWSs0jLPOy
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOrNmsDx31
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？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrMsWTqLPw
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWCOIhD8X0
「你太小看她對李博洋的愛了。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3YhO1ryvX
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgY9NlygiK9
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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJC0ImkhNQi
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbunNEcigD
「本大爺又不能隨便拿耳機！」李晴煬反駁。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8VxQmr6eM
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitl3jflppR
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjz1wBauFsO
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnCwklfWMB
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpr7XL0TQVH
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMGl9QdRQ4
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mQVJHRyIh
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjUOXT51ka
「……抱歉，弟弟，我有點累。」李博洋低頭，「我先回房間了。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCQGTn2s3j
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5YidpGlDx
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXhLah7XxH
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXjo1YItx8
「謝謝……」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lsSClmFIF
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQzXSC2FVo
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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhm4hSFYDR
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHbSCdU5jB
「我要等尼可。」葛蕾絲頓了頓，「……如果他還活著。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUqNWGFpL9
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSpizqBVHP
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCqYwX6Gx0
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zTEWnBgEz
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljHeJAIZ1e
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrrHk8NxCL
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSYAMZbYBG
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAK7yesVeF
所以，里奧應該不會殺死尼可拉斯……吧？553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IoagQltCU
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xWI5SLlBg
葛蕾絲坐在沙發，雙手合十，只能在心裡祈禱了。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINpqx07eWp

檸檬已經睡著了。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgLxjGbZVq
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qjlzZKSNv
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6SRLeqRHT
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMSHPDpXhy
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhbu4aPWaY
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIdBGmPadP
所以他走過去。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpOIFASxdF
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXGkNYI2ei
抱著妹妹，來到妹妹的親身父親旁，親手交給他。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOli62CgNwb

「……。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGUPfEtdmo
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wObhdKLPU
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFCerzgqgQ
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFK2LZ3ASNA
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudpaMhE82b

真的會死。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAiBI7kY4n

他不會輕易原諒。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RbR6UPoSZ
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCA5Rj8Vqty
也沒有理由原諒。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhSoQv9XbW

「對…對不起……！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFw58m0pUx1
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvwk6ty0co
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hX7oFezzo
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG3iaQ46g4
「對不起……我知道你沒有理由原諒我，可是……對不起……！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCWkRbADBU
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl517tpQQP4
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUrSECofX7

553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCgoogKZs4
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLyNWu8lUq

553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIjpZDfEDv
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqW02r0qtpb
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOeIWxLked

「……？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrd7gSav81
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMI74ASWTO
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MkpksEay8

553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1N2FA8AJm
一雙大手突然放到尼可拉斯頭上。尼可拉斯抬頭，戾氣從里奧的臉上消失，他變回面無表情的臉，淡淡說了句：「坐吧。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAWvQyh4PH
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaWHeTHtxo
「……。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPoDzt1VNd

尼可拉斯不敢動作。里奧用眼神示意旁邊的位子，「坐，我很多事要問你。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfyjChC8RH
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlUSKUh9Lg
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？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomYex88MDf
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0rdIUQOpn
尼可拉斯嚇一跳，沒想到第一個問題是這個。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDLBO3sH0P

檸檬的時間被高宇維提早七個月，尼可拉斯算了算，「明年四月。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jJo8afecZ

尼可拉斯緊緊抓著自己的衣襬。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajFxORcV2L
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zjI3EWwK8
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIYUB2k0ai
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvg0KylssW
「所以希望葛蕾絲回來？」里奧問。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4UTmKNZVR
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERYWHubMbI
「沒錯，還有……」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTKQrutjx3
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYK76xxZ6gR
尼可拉斯的表情很掙扎，最後，還是決定說出來──553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43HYgXsTi3
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1VWAbGDpC
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ34jBf3zOt
「我發現，自己喜歡的是男生。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1cneqmjzY
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEy3iA2tqb
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdv973BklM
「……！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mwyWbgPpR
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEmg7cRPOO
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUHRWIRyWG
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDWPObMwcI
「我最近常夢到奇怪的夢，那讓我很……害怕。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAd8Tt92UH5
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BdXXepEiL
尼可拉斯的聲音在抖。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbPGVB0IEt
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaG5Zt7o44
「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……！」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KgwA4fNh2
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85LHpwPTCp
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcNWl3vhYy
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zHB3EEb0A
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1nEljRLQ9
尼可拉斯也是孩子。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOajQBULmN
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtSmsW4ehC
雖然外表、知識超齡，但他只有十七歲。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4a9a8o31F
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hZRJqNBIC
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlRimoecIx
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlvuIKk0JY
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDcwk6eYCn
「……。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiZpYwsMKx
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCtDge0Xa4
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl44nHR0Gfx
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDHMcTd6lD
「啊。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoJYgGLl8P
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyJ75m0ifW
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdFj2s28Pm
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzkuiLkqUf
「……我一直以為睫毛影是商人的噱頭，沒想到是真的。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQweapJX7vr
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncleEgslvY
尼可拉斯看著檸檬的眼睛，忍不住讚嘆：「她好漂亮。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFl1As0nCD
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdt73UHaZ9N
「像媽媽。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdS2qWgHGl
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVFqp0vtGH
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOd9HWOlbgA
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8ujpJwV7T
「……尼可。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwmTbLKEgk
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwaRjgl3ZS
里奧突然抬頭，跟尼可拉斯說：「我不在，安琪都交給你。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2qOf8RpEP
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jgc66JZMU
「咦？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3t6cNiNxZ
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2d7P27phM8
「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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwy6ABjvs9
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uvk2ejtEv
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXwBXIQIok
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYmakK3BRt
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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaI58GlYZT
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeE8gAUs8Um
「……。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5ug164cT0
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs6KFnm6Rg
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmh1RgTicOf
「討厭的哥哥」。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVkiEU6XDB
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdRXVAWwqs
尼可拉斯腦中，閃過這個身分。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGlj9L9Id9
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFEICvDtbl
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp8vdJjIQq
「……我明白了。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPOs3ZSuKm
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSoVb6QHQF
尼可拉斯擦掉眼淚、擦掉淚痕，跟里奧保證：553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusYQEM3Wrx
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RNtKzWPQP
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHG5Zn8EqM
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0Beeci6PI
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmseoC80AY
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jmb56mFBJ
「對了。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6r6KkjV8ar
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHaGIgUSTk
尼可拉斯想到什麼，尷尬地問：「我以後，要叫你舅舅嗎？」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtTFNanFbY
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBJCMFuraj
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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qqrFOAjsk
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9T8azKuyf
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61JRVT3Czh
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhozmQ0ednp
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。553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLfvn2MKVp
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxCW5XRfFw
「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。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCEuT4LyaU
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0K3pnD8yo
「隨時歡迎。」553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHF3EwC3rF
553Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltgILxgTAc
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。
