2161年2月21日，下午七點，卡洛爾大廈470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDosWF07RMQ
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uLqXSwzt2
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9ZStW6uAJ
李晴煬在書房，與此同時，謝綠、江云格、賴梓綾三人，在客廳與艾莉絲一起，詢問有關羅琳娜的事。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyLlovLigI
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJ5WHc6Ees
「你們想知道哪一方面？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWgcHOAoAX
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIN4LM2P9G
艾莉絲問他們。謝綠貪心地回答：「全部，我受夠一知半解了。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFPWUKGE4w
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMvMOoonLY
「……。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkvNhsn7WL
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrpWBZELQt
「我要知道全部，還有──」謝綠表示：「宇維少爺和獅鷲，這兩方究竟想做什麼、該怎麼阻止，我也必須知道。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSg2u6Dq1zh
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1U9mfrq6F
「……。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Q3IPn2Kph
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWz5a7su67
艾莉絲突然不說話，漆黑的眼珠凝視著謝綠的臉，尤其是她的草綠色眼睛。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPHnBC1PHt
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpzTCiYK7d
「怎麼了？」謝綠覺得她的視線很奇怪。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMUDCQFn0t
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uWsADKf3z
「不，沒什麼。」艾莉絲小聲地說：「原來妳的眼睛是這樣。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnALYUEtcb
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvbLuICPKv
「……？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LRZBlaEYz
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKbSiCftiI
艾莉絲講得很小聲，還是被聽力極好的江云格聽見。他不知道艾莉絲在說什麼，艾莉絲也立刻轉移話題，江云格沒辦法問。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GtnAnxJfD
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaanuMLIsE
「羅琳娜就是水果塔。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2nDzLhb0bX
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlMtcJYBFt
艾莉絲兩手交疊，放在腿上，心平氣和地說：「她擁有每一種水果塔，也能使用每一種水果塔──照理說是這樣。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtndrM5WdU
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGoKm7qKT0
「照理說？」江云格聽到關鍵字。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6BlPtWtqx
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLvSqqal4c
「白絃正在衰弱。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAJz7tnZlz
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhMmuI9NOR
艾莉絲用別的稱呼，以此區分白絃的多重身份。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn39s9KYGOP
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLavrJQmCX
「白絃體內，屬於『羅琳娜』的力量在不斷流失，正退化成第一代水果塔『獅鷲』──這對艾莉絲體系十分不利，我們將失去對抗蜘蛛的最大戰力，但白絃的衰弱，是瘋帽的一大機會。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJk2oK3wL5
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CAdq3PzmR
「什麼機會？」謝綠問。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZbfs66yfI
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFJxTYvndn
「讓李仲翔回來。」艾莉絲回答：「李仲翔當年會死，因為他面對的不只是『獅鷲』，而是『羅琳娜』；一旦李仲翔透過李晴煬的身體歸來，衰弱的白絃無法對抗完整的紅心傑克，然後……」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOjBQURbo7
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VPm3XJy3i
艾莉絲突然打住，冰冷的表情難得，出現類似困惑的情緒。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4sdvjpYGG
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUasajiFmo
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmxl438JC4
「李仲翔會找到我、利用共鳴，喚醒當年的夏悠。『夏悠透過現在的艾莉絲歸來，與所有水果塔共鳴、重振艾莉絲體系』──以此撕毀《羅琳娜條約》，是瘋帽的最終目的。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybrQ7R76mh
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHVmVAoxpi
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0XFm2dTqJ
「……？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnizE58HVik
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7KbpjtQLz
聽到這，謝綠和江云格理解，為什麼艾莉絲會感到困惑。言下之意，高宇維計畫的關鍵，除了李晴煬，另一個就是艾莉絲。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KtcGu9VeK
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWhxXkf1SV
「『只要李仲翔回來，妳就會變成夏悠』──為什麼宇維少爺如此篤定？這件事的成功機率，是百分之百嗎？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVgQzt9GT5W
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnc3Z0unhY6
謝綠看著艾莉絲，「妳有夏悠的外表、身份、記憶，但妳不是她，妳根本不認識李仲翔，怎麼會被他影響？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxLHka0mOy
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16VQv7Kt92
「白絃也是這麼說。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ivu3rNeDG
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzYynldtyn
艾莉絲抬頭，盯著天花板的一個點。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLyJKfjONe
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1N6RBnQaR
「對我而言，夏悠的記憶像電影，我只是看電影的觀眾，不是主角。我好奇白絃和李仲翔、也會感到熟悉，但我沒有夏悠的感情；之於『我』，他們只是艾莉絲體系的兩個人，我和他們沒有感情基礎，所以我不明白。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5jHmlpRbW
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCy90rjQdK
高宇維和白絃，兩人都認為對方會失敗，因為他們掌握的關鍵截然相反──高宇維相信夏悠會回來，白絃不是。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhHU8I5PpU
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhRdleUD8o
「宇維少爺，一定還有沒打出來的牌，只是我們不知道。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zwwesHiYh
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pVe4BTD70
江云格思索。高宇維這些年的重心，都放在李晴煬、神與畜、十大家族，很少提到艾莉絲；可見在他的認定，艾莉絲的事情非但不急，還不擔心白絃從中做艮。按高宇維的個性，把一件重要的事放著不管，他肯定很有把握。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGCV67ENuG
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUwLrHAiBz
「作為艾莉絲，妳不會想做什麼嗎？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KFsm7iqgc
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLOLaX5vit
謝綠突然問，艾莉絲難得眨眼，似乎不明白她在問什麼。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGgeDQIS1x
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfs2Q1vtIh
「雖然被《羅琳娜條約》削弱權力，但之前做錯事的是夏悠，不是妳；夏悠犯下的罪，其實不用妳承擔。」謝綠表示：「什麼也不做，任憑宇維少爺和白絃左右自己。身為艾莉絲，妳不會不甘心嗎？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rXDec4Bfp
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4g4qDliKn3
「……。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaF622jTZq
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlk10Q3UnU
艾莉絲低頭。她沉默很久，才緩緩開口：「我隨時都會被取代。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVT439zRUt
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBj27udrMPu
「什麼？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9McHencOhR
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvTjxKDLhg
「說故事的人是羅琳娜，不是我。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJZhsNSb5m
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQt4WMP9laj
艾莉絲喝了一口拿鐵，今天的第五杯。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSX7ipWkfni
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GpieQMCTg
「夏悠死了，羅琳娜沒有讓一切結束，而是創造新的艾莉絲、建立十大家族，確保水果塔被一代代傳承；沒有繼承人的水果塔，就用人造人去彌補。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9J7nCTlsvh
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND1VPN4hGb
艾莉絲閉上眼睛。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzwJvthu5M
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdogQqSz1Qk
「我們，都是白絃保存回憶的一部分。她希望艾莉絲體系繼續存在，這樣，第一代水果塔的故事就不會結束。夏悠不能回來，但她和夏悠的回憶，白絃不想讓它消失，所以羅琳娜讓我們在這──在沒有夏悠的艾莉絲體系──延續水果塔的故事，保存她的回憶。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32e3OsR2ib
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rzUO1UGvw
艾莉絲看著他們，尤其是謝綠。江云格發現，艾莉絲看謝綠的眼神一直很怪。雖然不明顯，但那雙漆黑的眼珠，蘊藏很多情緒。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkM8NUNhtU0
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHrhb1eyej
「瘋帽也不希望故事結束，這點，他和羅琳娜有相同的共識，所以他們給我這棟大樓，既是保護我，也是監視我；如果我做出不符合『艾莉絲』的舉動，羅琳娜會將我破壞。既然隨時會被取代，『我』的存在有什麼意義？既然沒有意義，『我』維持現狀或變成夏悠，又有什麼區別？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoXhhE6Qln
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzq81R5WpO8
「……。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwdomNTyi6
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfJlKYZ7m4
她不是「什麼都沒做」，而是「什麼都做不了」。身居高位，虛位元首；身而為王，君權神授。她無法對抗高宇維，也無法違抗羅琳娜。被命運囚禁的，除了水果塔後代，還有「偉大的」艾莉絲。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cyu5GDEY9
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTlTP34vr2
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6VUesvf1ai
「沙利葉。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCYzZB6mJO
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEt5pigPoyG
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuUyNws2HL
突然，沒聽過的聲音加入談話。艾莉絲、謝綠、江云格轉頭，看向一直坐在旁邊，默默聽他們對話的賴梓綾。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0y2IMerqm
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdeKgyrjV0
「羅琳娜，死於，沙利葉。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7GnTxZp16
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMYnbKUpt3
這是賴梓綾講過最完整的句子。江云格和謝綠這才想起，筆記本最後一章的內容，就是這一句。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS83b2L3kJ0
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmo9lyp4Q8
「沙利葉……」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJajXx4f5z
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLzZKsKyKD
艾莉絲覆誦。她有夏悠的記憶，知道筆記本的內容，但太久沒聽到這個詞，一時覺得陌生。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuarqcNqxTs
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBpPNezSp1
「我記得，沙利葉是薩拉凱爾教的核心，被稱作『月之天使』。」江云格問艾莉絲：「為什麼薩拉凱爾教的傳說，會和艾莉絲體系扯上關係？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oga8kcPS4
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZAvsFqTPp
謝綠也問：「沙利葉到底是誰，羅琳娜為什麼會死於沙利葉？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLeto9yGbP
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlmmTNqLhK
艾莉絲陷入沉思。這時，賴梓綾又開口：「利維坦。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡml1WKiLZ0m
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPwvrZRXPc
「……？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSL7RxllDw
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4A4wR7MoxC
「沙利葉，回來。」賴梓綾斷斷續續地說：「和，利維坦，一起回來。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dr5Pym6tu
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwGTMZPMnr
「……！」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyiJEFxgyQ
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZT4HmhjkhJ
大家都不知道她在說什麼，但賴梓綾的話，似乎讓艾莉絲想到什麼。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ibzaRbrG3
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohjyRl6wCS
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugavZeDw9K
「我想，小約翰所說的『沙利葉』，就是蜘蛛。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUYbD9nZ9w
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqemxSB9HsX
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiUwTHgjIB
艾莉絲說出她認為的答案，但這答案，讓謝綠和江云格感到十分震驚。謝綠問艾莉絲：「紅鶴就是沙利葉，他能殺死羅琳娜？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvl6rHJYIp
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Z0LKVQ9eY
聽到謝綠的問題，艾莉絲難得出現表情。她用介於困惑和驚訝之間的眼神，看著謝綠和江云格。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lNKROrsKT
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKSwbrHbbC
「瘋帽，沒有跟你們說嗎？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgmbE4mi8X
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWC8G4kJmc
艾莉絲停頓，一字一句，說出令人震驚的事實──470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYuczoZmoL
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlQknxnb1d
「蜘蛛不只一個。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQL00lId5Ky
