地上的灰塵厚比地毯，讓行過的人印下清晰的足跡。友梨扶著灰矇矇的牆壁，續步跟著印痕前行。
即使是仿真人，視力卻和常人相差無幾，昏暗的環境使內心醞釀不安。狹隘的通道一直伸延，直致她到達一個寬敞的房間，黃昏的顏色隱約照進來，叫不出名字的傢俬雜物靜靜的填滿了空間，好像一群熟睡的動物群落。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FT9KJiTl8
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBA3HG9UqGQ
友梨停下腳步，寂靜的空氣夾帶著呼吸聲。她順著聲音走去，繞過由雜物組成的迷宮，在終點找到她所追尋的。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanrG2jwIu9
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwvMEoKnVo
「亞里，找到你了。」她說。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdt57bvgTcd
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAjZtLjqzC
盡頭的人影瑟縮在影子裡，緊緊的抱住自己，像一顆頑石。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ119B9brvVl
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3kotrmCE8
「友梨嗎？」她哽咽，｢為甚麼知道我在這兒……｣513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYinYAdafui
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWrJAu08Uk
「黑暗和狹小的地方讓人安心吧，我也一樣喜歡這樣的地方，只要待著就能使頭腦靜下來。」友梨說，｢回去吧，情況會好起來的。｣513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeCLnML0Df
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNPFREGlAi
「我不回去。」她說。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJXyLvE9xb
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQfun1rNwG
「聽過大小姐的話後我也很怕，覺得已經沒救了，只有死路一條。但安德魯說，我們仿真人只要持續喝能量飲品便能過活。不用煩惱食水問題，也不用維持體溫，不怕蚊蟲，不怕野生動物。我們這副身體要在荒島生存其實意外地簡單。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WXnwB2txz
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbnGUbzPwA
友梨邊說邊輕步走近——513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7L28exK8pm
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxnXYRpBuO
「不要過來！」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FCDTR1baE
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnh08JakchP
友梨止住腳步，她未聽過亞里如此大聲。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFeIUO7DmL
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcOOMQVK2F
「我沒事，你先走吧，我待會就會回去。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2RtCve6Cg
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpAJ3oKBhw
『好的，請保重。』平時的友梨大概會這樣回答，然後轉身離開。然而，她打從心底裡，覺得此時絕對不能棄亞里於不顧。這股毫無根據而又違反理性的衝動，也許能算是一種本能吧。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTNaWfUeOq
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsNkblQxuw
她再度邁開步伐，小巧的步音如同鐘擺一樣『踏…踏…』。
對亞里來說，每一下都是如雷貫耳。她的身體縮得更小，巴不得化作一溜青煙，鑽過雜物的狹縫逃去。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oQQJvublv
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kLHfUymHn
隨著距離拉近，亞里的輪廓亦漸見清晰，除此以外，腳邊的一個物件映入眼簾。就像被刺痛了眼睛，友梨不禁嘶聲。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIpiVPVxxA
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWf4jVokil6
一塊染上液體的玻璃碎片。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXrM4Jphck
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KfrtUTo8M
亞里把玻璃推到身後，好像事情能當沒發生過。這反而讓友梨的視線轉移到亞里身上，她左邊的衣袖深色了一大片。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7KeZ3w7zI
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvf1AYqEIX
友梨蹲下來，與亞里視線同高。她伸出手，她往後縮。她抓住濕透了的手臂，她放棄掙扎。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1uoFFM0SP
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5eK36DpFM
她把她的手臂拉到面前，影子裡看不見衣袖的顏色，也許這是件萬幸的好事。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oMkBTW4V9
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7NJA5Z5SM
亞里淚眼婆娑的目光照得友梨一陣熱，她突然意識到現在的氣氛十分羞恥。空氣好像蒙上了一道白霞，訕訕的視線越見模糊。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiykZIDhya
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoNcuHy5tT
友梨咽一口水，給自己下定決心。指尖捏住衣袖的一角，緩緩的向上拉開。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgnvPWS9Tr
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXQoJREDs0
各種恐怖的聯想像彈出式廣告一樣擾亂她的心神。時間續秒過去，聯想亦續一得到了印證。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQ17f4HA92
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxiTALmvFZ
臂彎像一條被砍伐的樹木。恐怖的痕跡佈滿了整條前臂，不斷的有液體從傷口裡滲出，凝聚，滴到地上。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GNP9nwYRG
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWStyJbcuT
「我甚麼也感覺不到。」亞里說，｢甚麼都沒有……以前只需要割三刀便能鎮靜下來。但是，這副身體感覺不到痛，無論割多少次也不痛。我需要痛。｣513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2itDklvR3V
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJzn7EmCYY
亞里想抽回手臂，但友梨不容許，兩手拉住她。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCsV1RBtjy
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IuZNvEUlq
「對不起，我以後不會的。不要跟別人說，求求你。我不要被當怪胎，友梨，求求你。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjIOaaFAE7
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWrfxgXSHB
面對亞里氣急敗壞的懇求，友梨甚麼都沒說，只是靜靜的靠了過去。亞里未弄懂友梨的本意，身體卻自然的配合著。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0Xtrrbtz0
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcqGOFkiwU
友梨坐於亞里的大腿中間，拉著她的手臂放在肚前環抱自己，對方的體温從背脊傳來。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcY74ru5ez
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWj8Pwi4S3
友梨撿起三角形的玻璃碎片，上面還滴著液體。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxOKC5Frjk
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznw1TRoeXC
「當心，會割傷你的手。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTdqy9YyG0

「這正是我要做的。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3OBHKBhia
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4wFuIFZ74
她把玻璃交到亞里手中。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtV1L5rLzpP
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSc9sTgRxI
「割我的手。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dhQSQi3ec
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVa3Ep3W6c3
亞里霎時接不上話，呆滯片刻才說：｢別說傻話，你怎麼能代替我——｣513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeJfFt5Ijo
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzQB2Zj4l5
「會痛吧。」友梨說，｢割我的手會讓你感受到痛。｣513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITYrN9KjGQ

「三刀而已，可以喔。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1IntZ7SUQ
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOluSAJ4k4H
亞里依然猶豫，友梨勾著她的衣袖，讓玻璃接近左臂。只要亞里拒絕，她隨時能甩開友梨。可是，她任由友梨帶領，將玻璃壓到手臂上。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagGe5T1Qlq
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjuyGh9Yyr
玻璃滑過人工皮膚，劃上一道印痕。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCD5DLrht5D
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyonJvAudW
「太淺了，下回再用力一點。」友梨說。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzsGa1fnCC
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKtOPfcWet
「嗯。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rtJ4EFWyl
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2OJk9VzcC
為了更好施力，二人調整姿勢，讓身體貼得更密。友梨右手摟住亞里的肩頭，讓她的下巴枕在自己的肩膀上。亞里要承受二人份的重量，她背靠牆壁，左手撐地穩住平衡。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSqNImwgy3
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKiT2sY10R
玻璃整好角度，左臂亦靠了過來。玻璃抵住幼小的前臂，在上一道淺痕的下方，綿力由左至右。玻璃輕易切入，撓起一層皮。液體從縫中溢出，流到地上。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1DO0AwF7B
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjNwrZWqKJ
「對不起……」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptU0YQySw9

「沒關係，下回小力一點。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y8Zju3Bar
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7szCSHZVz
兩臂自動復位，再一次，玻璃緩慢地劃過手臂。皮膚於玻璃後綻開，液體從底下滲出，被表面張力拉住停留。左手輕輕握拳，順著玻璃切口旋轉，精準的畫完第三道印痕。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQF9v9WoQU
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiPNY3unDg
急速尖銳的呼吸漸催平靜，黃昏色的陽光打亮她們的身體。兩人都不願做出呼吸以外的多餘動作，靜靜的，直致陽光從她們身上移開。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UGbN2IM0k
