天空掛著濃厚的密雲，拍打海灘的浪花格外灰白。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RwnQoo7RR

廣闊的海灘上圍起一片鹽田。安德魯直起腰，鏟子插在身邊，抹去額頭上不存在的熱汗。她回頭，看著田裡一座座白色尖錐，成功感油然而生。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOGyMeptW1
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHniS5PAoTM
幾天前，祐嘉提出了製作臘肉過冬的計劃。醃製臘肉需要大量的鹽，所以決定以曬鹽的方式用海水製鹽。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSfW1yr99h
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfrii3VWGY
今早來到海灘時，鹽田仿佛遍地積雪，眾人不禁驚嘆連連。安德魯負責將曬乾的鹽疊成小堆；亞里和友梨負責將鹽舀進竹籮裡，方便之後搬回冰室。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9NGf4T6wA
看著不遠處，友梨細小的身影嘗試拉動堆成鹽山的竹籮。竹籮當然紋風不動，感覺她幼細的雙臂會像公仔一樣脫落。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBE9yJxYfT
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1Up1yn6uw
「友梨，你太心急了。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXE2XH7xQp8
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJBglCfoYl
安德魯上前，幫忙把竹籮過多的鹽舀走。友梨低著頭，挫敗的小聲道歉。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PdtkJLmbm
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFiwCaWFiX
「不要緊。」安德魯彎腰曲膝，與友梨視線成水平，發現她的眼中含著淚光，｢你還好嗎？跟亞里吵架了？｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnC495oYWOR
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOh4C6w2mH
她微微點頭，｢我的錯。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmG5rqyVoF
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMlKyDvGQH
「嗯嗯，到底發生甚麼事了？能夠告訴我嗎？」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPXJJ6ZoQk
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwz2baikoS2
冷不防，友梨突然蹲下，安德魯也跟著下去。她低頭飲泣，喉嚨沙啞發不出聲。安德魯甚麼都沒說，只是在身邊靜靜的等待。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKniqi51er
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9zaZl77O5
默默的靜待時間流逝，終於，友梨開口：409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCsOSbydLs
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMRI8SINRx
「我對她說謊，隱瞞了絕不能原諒的事實。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hnN4PkbaL
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRs030HgG9
「我看到友梨非常後悔，你也是情非得已才說謊吧。只要好好解釋和道歉，亞里一定會接納和諒解。」安德魯伸手，｢我陪你，一起去找亞里。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQpLx55LZV
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbroSg58pJr
友梨搖頭，態度決絕，｢情況不是你所想像的。我不會原諒自己。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8UC9yup6d
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpez2F3wWA6
「可以跟我說嗎？一人計短，二人計長，我們一起想方法解決。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCaK3BA0NU
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOT7eoS1yx
友梨望著安德魯，瞳孔宛如倒映星光，可是，微光眨眼即逝，「不行。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ72nVFQym1
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddpTpkqGMw
「你們在做甚麼。」無感情的語氣插話進來，平調得聽不出是問句。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcLMlARLUg
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruPcqrzXIa
安德魯抬頭，看到紅楓。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKVJUrmQiX
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34wQeXLEiX
「我原本在釣魚。」紅楓指向遠處的大石，｢你們蹲在這裡做甚麼，要幫忙？｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGExMMeuXfY
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKRT9a7AzK
「我沒事。」友梨擦去眼淚站起來，她還對紅楓存有戒心。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0vXqcaoZ8
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmrbjcgvxE
友梨想離開，卻被紅楓拉住手腕。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVH6YeL73dr
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bxHQLvSqB
「放手！！別管我！！」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpwW0DUKYt
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00wtXyb2v7
「嗚……! 」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFW4J7vAjpA
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUi5WfBMHg
友梨大吼，把安德魯嚇了一跳。她甩開紅楓，將手抱在胸前，像對方會把整條手臂搶走似的。然後，她又意識到自己反應過大，馬上低頭道歉。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUDPyWMVVC
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWMh0WKXk0
「對不起，我變得越來越不是自己。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KnKUoPalk
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fRLadro4Q
此刻的海風格外冷冽，能在人工皮膚上結霜。她們都隱約感受到友梨和亞里之間存在必須化解的矛盾。然而，兩人都拒絕援手，築起肉眼可見的紅牆。想幫忙卻無從入手，帶給她們強烈的挫敗感409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdVgTBp7Rj
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RSHSk7HHV
「差不多到中午了，我們休息一會吧，喝能量飲品補充體力。」安德魯說。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqfOZHuSXO
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgUWNvkFmj
友梨二話不說，獨自往林子方向走。不遠處的亞里看著她們，安德魯想過去，亞里一聲不吭的往相反方向走開。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXS61urWVcr
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatBc5GFkHC
「為甚麼會變成這樣……」安德魯的聲音失去了以往的神采，臉色黯下來，｢兩人明明是感情要好的閨蜜，為甚麼今天會反目成仇。紅楓，你去找亞里談談；我去找友梨談談，首先要弄清楚兩人鬧翻的起因。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWh27t9Xkn
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cyWqA3TdR
「別。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7r2X4L1H9
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEWEZ7yiPO
只有一個單字，是拒絕的意思嗎？安德魯不解的皺眉。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfD0kg2vPD
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwY0tSJ1Ud
「她，她們都很怕我。剛才友梨見到我就想跑。安德魯，起碼友梨願意回應你，我需要你來開解她們。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eK62omKmj
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORgUnkCZDB
「我嗎？不對，剛剛友梨沒有回答我，她只是說情況不如我想像。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0ELID7LGK
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GL5mUApy7
紅楓的眼神像見到魚兒上鉤，立即追問二人的對話內容，安德魯便向她覆述了一遍。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhW6QXIhi8f
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBc5x90AoZ
「是我多管閒事了。」紅楓說。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2Mv7VFJeG
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OLCA7kfIP
對於她的回應，安德魯感到錯愕，「責任不在你。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLc6gJ7IVDw
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqrJzNjK86
「友梨的說話，字裡行間透露著求救的訊息。假如我沒有插話，她就會把事情和盤托出。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDsH6p0wUT
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7l46dvCN6O
「真的嗎？但她沒有正面回覆我的打算啊。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5eJjRhlFX
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtybYZbJNDQ
「是罪惡感作祟，她屬於任何事情都會先怪責自己的類型。雖然内心渴求救星，但罪惡感讓她覺得自己沒有被救助的資格，應該溺死在内疚之中。
「若然友梨真心不想被幫助，她只需要矢口否認所有問題。『情況不是你所想像的。』這句話真正的意思是：『問題非比尋常地嚴重，聽之前要有心理準備。』。
「可以確定友梨有意趟開心扉，現時只要再推一把，她定將來龍去脈告訴我們。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRD58My2dZ
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SzW8X0Uqb
安德魯打量紅楓，表情寫滿了佩服，｢你分析得很透徹，是從那兒練出這一身本領。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIGaTpMnLC

「我以前在銀行當顧問，看眉毛就能讀懂別人想甚麼。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXxlwmoQZK
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZXvMEjIDQ
「怪不得對住大小姐也能面不改容，原來從事金融業的。」安德魯搖搖頭，｢不對，先著眼現時問題。我們去找友梨，呃，但我沒有信心能處理得好。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYi1xMJEpH
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSStiO3Gn0
「我會陪你。」紅楓說，｢我可以佔主導，你在旁邊附和我的說話。只要你在場，她多小會放下戒心。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ690t3kJyiB
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrO0ZylMMZ
她們跟著友梨的足印走進林子。裝著能量飲品的袋子原封不動，兩人都沒有來過這裡。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIMfEBVFgc
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡms49isukao
「我們等著吧。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNxUizSkhh
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhI7bOEInX
安德魯語音剛落，紅楓將食指貼住嘴唇，然後將手放在耳邊。
隱約聽到喘氣聲。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf66ncBalDB
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0B4TUG50i2
友梨的聲音從草叢後傳來。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfaIezzBjY
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXV1vyNqUQ
那是她們從未聽過的音調，甚至難以判斷當中帶著的是痛苦，還是其他異樣的感受。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4K7it7EO5x
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEYpbyUfH0
安德魯看向紅楓，如同徵求同意。她淺淺地點頭，做好了心理準備。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhKp355bnq
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXHfHSwAFd
撥開草叢，看到友梨……409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdbFrvvta6
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHW8OO6TN0
世界變得模糊，像電視機收到雜訊。安德魯掩住嘴巴壓住尖叫，結果還是有半吭漏出指縫。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLoiWTbAN8
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGkNJEamxG
友梨驚慌抬頭，撐大的眼眶猶如跌出眼珠。衣袖拉至肩上，手臂暴露出恐怖的傷痕，另一手執著尖銳的石頭。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynFz2TH7qG
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvatXFUflOc
沒有多餘的解釋，友梨轉身拔腿——409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEqkhFb9SC
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2RDuSOIH9
「不要再逃避！！！」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbnw88ikj8
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfH7ZlfwMba
紅楓大聲震懾，不只是友梨，連安德魯都怔住了。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKV8DxWja5G
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2l2PmOIoe
「不要再抑壓感受了！！她是你最重要的人吧！！正視你的情感！！」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5MWgmiUf8
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7qaB0Fly0
友梨熱淚盈眶的表情，宛如發問：我配嗎？我值得被原諒嗎？409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAfVRn1YCb
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkBOEI7xai
紅楓以擁抱代替回答。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cX9baNTM6
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bVRJsUDvB
友梨再壓不住情緒，崩潰痛哭。紅楓緊緊的抱住她，任由淚水沾濕衣服。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhbz7QCvyx
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Nabhchz3b
「對不起……對不起……」已經不知道友梨在向誰道歉。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhssoTRdTm
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdI21l3rFZ
「感覺好點了嗎？」安德魯蹲在她面前，拿手帕將前臂上難看的液體擦乾，｢無論如何都不應該傷害自己。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6mXeLwq5n
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXm6XvvGpCG
「我…對不起……頭腦好亂……痛可以冷靜……我需要痛……」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCRAjQbhln
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUHv3a4Zsi
「從這些疤痕看來，你已經偷偷做了好多次。我，居然沒有發現。」
安德魯表現得自責；而紅楓看到更多細節。
「疤痕不是自殘造成的。這件事，你不是一個人在做。」她看了安德魯一眼，然後才轉回友梨，平淡的語氣說出結論：｢是亞里做的。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWZpvXmN64
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfbcdXaWXA
安德魯禁不住倒抽一口涼氣，認知再三迎來衝擊。她感到一陣目眩，如果是原型的肉身，也許已經受驚過度而昏倒吧。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMcZfWtMGB
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxCs0dcdFm
「不是這樣！她沒有錯！我不是她的不是這樣！」友梨急住為亞里辯護，說話急速且語無倫次。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7g0GxAohFZ
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceXWzDIKgT
紅楓抓緊她的肩膀，要她深呼吸冷靜情緒。等她理順呼吸了，紅楓才開始問：409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06WFNOf6oS
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2DjrgP8Xm
「甚麼時候開始的？」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyfwJOW2Y8
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtwOL3xxRx
「亞里第一次出走時，我在一個地下倉庫裡找到她，她當時用玻璃割腕。我們要這樣才能冷靜頭腦，可是，仿真人的義體會麻痺痛覺，傷口再深都不會感受到痛。
「於是我提議讓她割我的手，借同理心的痛來代替肉體上的痛。因為亞里的情緒一直都不穩定，之後我們就做了很多次。直到，直到昨天……」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDBETY66KC
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4oEuM47yD
友梨自覺的深吸口氣，同時讓接下來的話在腦中重新整理一次。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt74ZElE8DI
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nggFf6QQN
「其實我很早已有所察覺，但我瞞著不說，因為亞里一定接受不了。直到昨天，她終於發現——409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydd0NcT9gv
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlnOuxueMa
「我和亞里是姊妹。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJPEHyHhEL
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNxc0ks2yV
意思是二人的原型是血緣上的姊妹嗎？不，對仿真人來說，『姊妹』是另一種意思。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3im8ouw2Oq
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qvyR2eDmF
「我和亞里是同一個原型的靈魂倒模。」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHTbA0ig5U
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EGgKetw0G
安德魯恍然大悟的瞪大眼睛，｢你們兩個的確很像，性格和說話方式近乎一模一樣。原來如此，你們本來就是同一個人。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8LxY0q9bH
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZVLlKSqLJ
紅楓對安德魯點住嘴唇示意安靜；然後轉回友梨要她繼續說。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE4UfNeuXG
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNphFmfjO6
「每次我讓亞里割腕時，都好像看著自己的手一樣。其實在第一次時我已經猜想我們很可能是同一個人。之後亞里提到自己的過去，我便完全肯定了。
「但是，我最清楚自己，依亞里的精神狀態一定無法接受，所以我才隱瞞不說。而結果，當亞里知道真相後，馬上陷入歇斯底理的恐慌。好不容易平靜下來後，又不願聽我解釋。我們冷戰，關係陷入僵局。我…應該怎樣做……」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOxPe9h996
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4s7KCJ6QW
友梨說完又要哭了，紅楓輕輕拍背，讓她的心情好過一點。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0l0mL1kdm
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmY0K9iCyDK
「沒事了，你無須獨個兒承受。」安德魯說，｢我們會幫你，幫助你們。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wQvsfc5eK
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxVQzc0PWY
紅楓點頭，｢我們去找亞里。事情已經明朗化，我可以開導她。｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb77OBL5Qet
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nReMIx3AB
「謝謝，真的非常感謝你們。｣友梨的眼神依然閃縮，｢真的，可以嗎？」如同確認她們不是騙子。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFUY2FwtGM
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeFYQjrVQC
「你現在不就打起精神嗎？」安德魯爽朗的笑著，｢亞里一定也能好起來！因為你們是一樣的嘛！｣409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZ2GVVXazo
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Ky1MQa6Lf
聽過安德魯的打氣，友梨非但沒有受到鼓舞，反而，臉色一下刷黑，抱頭縮起身體。409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZRqLyZf7Q

「不，不要！不不不不不！！！」409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzJBpHsUTB

409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGAQcOGj7a

「亞里要去自殺。」
