第一代水果塔「書蟲」凱薩．克里斯托多羅普洛斯，花了他漫長人生的三天，終於把亂七八糟的屋子打掃乾淨。好久沒看到地板，他很訝異，原來他家地板是白色。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4mvwTOjGi
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgq3ezzbGkj
「唉，這些怎麼辦啊……」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE574MSbkCY
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZua5lLpEM
雖然一塵不染，但凱薩的書太多，一疊一疊堆在客廳角落，沒地方放。他決定在死之前，以個人名義建立一座圖書館，把看完的書全部扔到那，死後還能供人瞻仰，一舉兩得。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRRgmWrMpB
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyNaJD6JKQ
「來了。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzafq5frjp
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqnb9IjHea
聽到敲門聲，凱薩立刻開門，只見艾莉絲站在門外，旁邊牽著一名紅色短髮、六歲的小男孩，睜著大大的藍色眼睛，好奇地看著凱薩。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAuY78ww99
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk5pRtXMhg
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JuXGpQyhm
「好久不見，凱。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXUmkhHaLgS
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahkfOpzbwi
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnytN26BDtU
艾莉絲看著他。凱薩終於刮鬍子，亂糟糟的紫色頭髮也整理過，身上穿著乾淨的衣服，披了件黑色外套，和她記憶中一模一樣。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1X0DPe6tEX
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnhEO9J7fX
「……。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWLhYurLgC
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOIdZ3IewF
久違聽到這個稱呼，凱薩內心百感交集，只有一個人會這麼叫他。他之所以打掃，原因很簡單──夏悠討厭髒亂。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WZ61YJR32
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcgS8hecxyy
「進來吧。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVFoCmMkhQ
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6ie5bn4er
凱薩邀請兩人入內。艾莉絲提了一袋飲料，一杯是她的拿鐵，一杯是男孩喜歡的熱巧克力，另外一瓶是碳酸飲料，給凱薩的。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDCWTlG0Rm
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbi0X2VBW2h
「哇！姊姊妳看，這裡好多書喔！」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKXHvfVho0
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmFjctzPUG
男孩一走到客廳，視線就被滿山滿谷的書吸引。看著在書堆前晃來晃去的小鬼，凱薩問艾莉絲：「哪來的？」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBSDnoGuJg
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNIKXjpwgV
「他叫夏木。」艾莉絲回答：「六年前，我們去救尼可拉斯和派翠克。這孩子的母親被紅鶴操控，死在機場。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZ28G8pSeW
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5eyBhDQuA
凱薩有印象。他們離開機場前，艾莉絲發現嬰兒車的男孩，最後帶他離開。男孩和艾莉絲生活在卡洛爾大廈，現在是她的弟弟。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKAD0f6CBr
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndDwzfYivV
「只是普通的孩子。」艾莉絲說：「欲雪和系兒都不知道，我藏得很好。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVmM76dpmZ
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY2K4mJRoq
「欲雪？」凱薩微愣，「喔對，高宇維的本名，我差點忘了。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvFAvUbv3P
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPZ8xlNWQr
大人要講正事，艾莉絲問凱薩有沒有適合兒童的書，讓夏木在一旁打發時間。這毫無疑問是個難題，凱薩的書連大人都看不懂，哪來的兒童讀物？390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTwuhNPQmJ
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADcH3JURti
「彩色的，很多插圖。」艾莉絲給他方向。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAOQ0O7D4K
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpOvxYTbPB
「插圖……」凱薩四處找，從書堆抽出一本，「尼可小時候看的，這可以嗎？」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHawohkO242
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC16wt2wZRt
凱薩把書打開，裡面確實很多插圖，但那是醫學書，上面畫滿人體器官，還有彩色的解剖圖，看得夏木當場大哭，小小心靈受到劇烈衝擊。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelkxsvx9Ct
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9mrh7tWy2
「我兒子看這長大……好痛！」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJDgRcRa2e
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeFG0oxdPK
凱薩被艾莉絲打頭，力道、位置、方式都跟一百年前一樣。凱薩沒辦法，只好回房間拿整套漫畫：《輝〇姬讓人想告白》，他年輕時最喜歡的。夏木乖乖在旁邊看，兩個大人講正事。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHshNcDiGJ
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbqRou8Jnl
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHHoo9AHKS
「所以，妳現在是誰？」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwNpjXLFyR
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzEqLbVjnf
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZ8o1Otv8W
坐在沙發，凱薩看著對面的艾莉絲，「稱呼沒錯，拳頭也一樣，但妳給我的感覺和『夏悠』不一樣，光外表就差很多。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOLHKhBFdb
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFtA0noXlD
確實，一百年前的夏悠是長髮，繫著紅色蝴蝶結，到死都穿著白色長袖襯衫，還有深紅色的短裙；現在的艾莉絲是短髮，俐落的黑色上衣和白色外套，合身的長褲配上短靴，還會戴耳環。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6j4K9f5XBT
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWU6HyXBrhv
「夏悠沒有耳洞。那傢伙看似面無表情，其實很有脾氣。」凱薩指著拿鐵，「還有，夏悠只喝調酒，無酒精的飲料她一概不碰，是個酒鬼。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrVXRYLYKo
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYy6tJsrlE
「……。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Nvqb7LtEw
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCBEGGOuRi
艾莉絲沒有回話。看表情，她好像鬆了口氣。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ869fklKWzU
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNfyKb1mqp
「葛蕾絲告訴我：高宇維利用地震，已經讓夏悠『回來』。」凱薩挑眉，「以老朋友的角度，我覺得事實並非如此，對嗎？」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlzBXuswbv
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1STDGg15JC
「一半對，一半不對。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqkYSmNBjY
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYY21HT9jF
艾莉絲直視凱薩的眼睛，終於說話：390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBqVbjqJFg
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuEXHLOjN0
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNyqtE0kbq
「經歷那場地震，屬於『夏悠』的情感回到我身上。我對你、系兒、欲雪，還有仲翔，那些感情正在我體內發酵，我不否認；但我不是她，我跟她不一樣──我明確知道這點。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbt3KqPjsnr
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKwFH26g0M
「我不會變成夏悠的，絕對不會。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5K76l7HTX
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbRjiJqT1j
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDH2Dfcvbk8
感情基礎沒有李仲翔、白絃深厚，凱薩對艾莉絲的影響有限。李仲翔被打死、白絃打死不見，凱薩不認為現階段，還有東西能將夏悠完全喚醒。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLSJJAWhVo
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KqyT3NA9p
當然，這只是他的推測，天知道高宇維還有什麼牌。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpm2gh1g1hX
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1T2npVfhmx
「因為那孩子嗎？」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvb3jRBmt2l
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr84uCou1qm
話雖如此，能將自己與夏悠切割，凱薩知道這不容易。他看向一旁看漫畫的男孩，表示：「夏悠很討厭小孩，何況住在一起。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEjD7DPJQJ
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ROPKQ1O0E
「是啊。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqBiFcDDA2
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZAgp4MsAH
艾莉絲竟然笑了，她溫柔地看著夏木，男孩因為太專心，沒發現姊姊在看自己。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gvqOP65Su
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyf2ZDa2Im
「一開始覺得麻煩、難以理解，但他的存在時時提醒我：『夏悠』不是他的姐姐，我才是。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpxJoCU9eb
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFumqx7USN
艾莉絲鞠躬，「系兒被抓，我必須去仙境，希望能爭取一些時間。凱，這孩子拜託你了。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBadglEEbjC
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9duoQHfkzt
「不要跟我鞠躬，我會折壽。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3fEhhVT96
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQU4lTyCMap
凱薩嘆氣，他也不能拒絕。幸好神與畜最近忙，葛蕾絲和尼可拉斯沒空回來，夏木不會被發現。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzYqXWf1Gl
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvayPe3ppn
「如果他不聽話，我可以揍小孩嗎？」凱薩突然問。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qPp7blrOO
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzejYxQqHa
「他很懂事，不會有這問題。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDVQV8xNlN
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdLOhjBm76
回答完，艾莉絲突然換話題：「凱。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCdl0asifU
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaxDwwlB4q
「幹嘛？」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbMG2r9Iy6
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWEHdHzHah
「你覺得，」艾莉絲問：「我要叫什麼名字？」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMyrh06SUB
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBl5DB4vYs
話題轉太快，凱薩被碳酸飲料嗆到，邊咳邊問：「啥？」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QNb95Pk5y
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJe6V48y8R
「『艾莉絲』是身分，『夏悠』是蝴蝶結的主人。」艾莉絲很認真，「我需要自己的名字，可是我想不到。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WmO8qSkgy
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ0LkjZPsk
「……。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrxL0t4Qkf
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemdvo6D79A
雖然飽讀詩書，但凱薩不認為自己有資格。他給艾莉絲建議：「等一切結束，讓小白給妳想吧。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OsOkk8Dqx
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4jLCqgQdM
沒想到凱薩會這樣說，艾莉絲問：「為何？」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp28ETRysW0
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZVU0fINqy
「小白不見妳，因為她堅持妳不是夏悠，也不會變成夏悠。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp80PporJG0
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6924Q7tJH
凱薩喝完飲料，將空罐子扔到遠遠的垃圾桶，完美的三分球。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMxgDuo3et
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH44UmYbuAn
「小白知道妳和夏悠的差異，一定能想到適合妳的名字。」凱薩說：「以前她總躲著妳，現在她哪也去不了，這是妳們見面的機會。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcTP4ThR1z
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddssQaUL4R
「……。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaImrFTrz3
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mAQhpHDE1
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUKxVky9xw
系兒需要小悠。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhACmEHyR2N
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8Ca6SQLQP
羅琳娜需要艾莉絲。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKupoXiCb7A
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRofTcr5CmA
用艾莉絲的身分道歉、道謝，再以新的名字，重新認識白絃。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxp4P1PzmMr
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GoWS1aZeO
──她想這麼做。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5l9AksrrFt
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiQEBZmUwb
只有白絃，能為她的存在賦予意義。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLanyCLN9v
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb56EQX83lN
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWuqrGnL9R
「妳未來的自我認知會很混亂；假使情勢所逼，妳變成夏悠，務必再變回自己。這非常困難，我知道。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgyXacXpsq
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oWXaXMQAR
凱薩彎腰，手肘撐在腿上。他把手放在臉前，手指呈現金字塔的形狀。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnPGHfXeTC
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQDiEeA55y
「然而，有條底線妳必須死守；無論發生什麼，千萬不要做一件事。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZs4ZHBkhu
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWsNgsuqaC
「……？」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAo3CxyoRrM
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2aNXqRy3S
凱薩的表情很嚴肅。不等艾莉絲問，他就閉上眼睛，用近乎懇求的聲音告誡，語重心長。390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNBK40Esx0
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr74Hsze6r
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRp1mrTIgmH
「不可以和李仲翔共鳴。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vfmv6vjSK
390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9onrUIzZxO
「絕對，不可以。」390Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WZamNR5q8
