又是一年的三月，春來時，梅雨季也隨之而來。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsFXnRklHL
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSTtVy0Vlc
「呼……」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtiXfvR9Oa
微瀾撐著傘，站在研究所外，看著眼前這座曾經見證過心動與心碎的建築，心底莫名泛起一絲複雜的情緒。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDXaXhFd3U
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLysfacmhyP
這裡，是她曾經努力融入的世界，79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAzPVzHDGO
也是她曾經選擇離開的地方。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJrHhIWEwM
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDPiSfjMIz
這一年來，她以外部人員的身份協助研究計畫，始終沒有真正「回來」。前陣子，蘇硯問她，是否願意正式接下研究員的職位。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtepCg5jgdu
她想了想，最後，還是答應了。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzDN1y13BI
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1jxk8jxfS
今天，就是她正式加入的第一天。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIhm4Lyuez
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6Zq73sZAD
「……這比研究所面試還令人緊張。」她低聲嘀咕著，手指輕輕扣了扣傘柄。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVfUc46SMz
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8p3ioV0eZp
她已經適應了學術環境，也確定了自己想要走的路，但當她真正要踏入這個地方時，心裡的緊張感卻還是不可避免地浮現出來。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6u8zyjY1Lx
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBBEDqqLJR
幸好，蘇硯的團隊氣氛與他本人並無二致——79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6yQg9FNax
溫暖且熱情。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpRO2L6QYF
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9OInkgayJ
這個地方，不再讓她感到陌生與不安。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHT1oDHyiX
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooKCKPkAZQ
她微微一笑，深吸了一口氣，然後邁步向前，伸手推開了研究所的大門。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlwS3ZBq4C
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5VF1NYTRH
「哎，學妹來啦？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwmoQLoRaJ
熟悉的聲音自前方傳來，微瀾抬起頭，便看到蘇硯正懶洋洋地倚著門框，手裡捧著一杯咖啡，像是在等她。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuXmfdsP9e
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9VkJTEkWn
「學長，」她無奈地笑了笑，「你什麼時候改負責迎賓了？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzIofnzrjL
「這可不是迎賓，是怕妳站在門口太久，乾脆過來看看。」蘇硯喝了一口咖啡，瞥了她一眼，79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlRibj9tOZ
「更何況…妳能算『賓』嘛。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLa48PxlRAF
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzFO1Py7qs
「……學長，你是不是期望我現在轉頭就走？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CmvuFv5Qg
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaowqITD2z
「怎麼？要不要回頭？現在還來得及喔。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8AJUoCNAA
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqnRgcT7O5
「……你覺得我會嗎？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJdgUDmiGe
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKQ6xjSSOQ
「不會。」蘇硯聳了聳肩，嘴角勾起一抹笑意，「但還是想看看妳會不會，又『臨陣脫逃』。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFe5Rhte49u
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt94tqOcQ1M
微瀾無語地翻了個白眼，「學長…現在教授都像你這麼閒嗎？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6UPbR2Jxs
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWVycfJ56M
「不閒啊，」蘇硯理所當然地說，「但來損妳幾句還是有點時間的。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw3nDMkd2I
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0y70ukf6U
話落，他將一張訪客識別證遞給她，「今天先拿這個，之後辦好正式的就能進出了。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFY8e98t8B
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3P99yGSeO
微瀾接過識別證，別在腰間，便跟著蘇硯走進去。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFFNmDbnCp
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKobPpRLEy
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jbnVow0Xh
「走吧，該來認識一下你的新同事了。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKv6AawTL5
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexV7hf2xAC
這裡的環境與微瀾記憶中的相差不遠，走廊的燈光依舊柔和，辦公區的擺設依舊井然有序，空氣裡還帶著些許咖啡與打印紙張的味道——這曾經是她最熟悉的氣息。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO74rHImrNG
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubLOM7ts7q
但她知道，這裡的她，已經和三年前的自己不一樣了。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPW06FjPF28
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFWz4hqsgQ
「前面這區是資料室，你的辦公桌就在那邊，旁邊還空了一個位子，方便你放研究設備。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHwNE90XUC
蘇硯邊走邊解釋，隨手推開了一道門。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLU2WxfleX
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ENL23NdAw
「進去吧，大家應該都在——」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnnivbtlKt
門一開，研究員們的視線齊刷刷地轉向門口，微瀾一時間還有些不習慣這樣的目光，微微頓了一下。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gWyngb03g
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjyevLF6Ja
「哦哦！學長說的新人來了？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme7CEI2q8c
「是蘇教授的學妹吧？聽說在國外做了不少研究！」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdkCKx9AOe
「妳好！歡迎加入我們！」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdj9mN1Y8SB
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfZ85JJLZT
微瀾還沒來得及說話，已經有人熱情地迎上來。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wPNKUlnmK
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyzUe6TwPd
她愣了愣，旋即微笑點頭：「大家好，我是微瀾，請多指教。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7FHfQDmY3
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzafI3I5mX
與她想像中不同，研究所的環境並沒有帶給她強烈的壓迫感，反而讓她有種難得的放鬆感。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTZ0SMPrlN
她終於明白，這是因為——這一次，她是帶著選擇回來的，這裡，才是她想要的歸屬。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FpL46wYC6
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMQRSDF2ZT
「對了，等等蘇教授會帶妳熟悉幾個合作部門，尤其是……」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOvoQgJhjg
「許教授那邊吧？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfI4Lw2DvyR
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZtjHyzr3f
有人笑著接話：「畢竟未來很多研究案都會跟他那組對接。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0URt3v5r6
微瀾正翻著資料的手微微一頓。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfGdAr2tFJ
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAi6UVloE6t
「啊，學妹你該不會還沒見過許教授吧？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmksczeyVK
「你們說……許墨？」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRINfhQW2fF
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsd0Qqibbk6
微瀾低聲問，語氣雖然穩定，指尖卻輕輕收緊了一些。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGGaFy95jI
「對啊，他這幾年帶的計畫挺多的，最近幾次的交叉合作，他們那組都在負責。」79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsclP5PwE1R
有人順口回應，沒注意到她的細微變化。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvagqx5PQyd
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTtAGW641U
「嗯……」微瀾垂下眼，輕輕摩挲著手中的筆。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85kOPrmRfA
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSxvOIT2Cu
這一刻，她知道——她終究還是要與他碰面的。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUKKpnSjn5
79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8VIXFd3iK
只是，這一次，主動選擇的人，是她。79Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksFhyBbu9t
