2161年2月21日，下午七點，卡洛爾大廈470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJNc12Kc5Y
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeXFfOQsub
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoYyEsGz5v
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEIb82Pke3
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlAOr39t9a
「你們想知道哪一方面？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqEw6eJ12r
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMkLW0Z7EJ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS5JgIPf9d
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1T3QJlXMA
「……。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyJlaqpT83
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUZOj16VYQ
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1oevQaY9B
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTh7nfHNOD
「……。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqx7nyQAJ54
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHegQBOzV4
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTs8ORHpz5
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20p6NwgcrM
「怎麼了？」謝綠覺得她的視線很奇怪。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1u1IiyUx3
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQGoT7F2Aq
「不，沒什麼。」艾莉絲小聲地說：「原來妳的眼睛是這樣。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTymuuXaGSf
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqG2j4ywVb
「……？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe8vv6aYdV
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYgEBb8y0M
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGwgrJt6Ua
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtuzKrs74o
「羅琳娜就是水果塔。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYojxoYH0WC
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhT77VArak1
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNu2bpBlwR
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMZI2mihsB
「照理說？」江云格聽到關鍵字。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOFULuYtJQ
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGHFVaTqhE
「白絃正在衰弱。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiUxZ6fBN8
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGArcclRJu
艾莉絲用別的稱呼，以此區分白絃的多重身份。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqN9yWgegV3
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPd6oy0oyH
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcf6LKTlBz2
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjsfS7cHkB
「什麼機會？」謝綠問。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdUPHD7FMv
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4V4x8L9Eb4
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf9ClwUXvX
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBZjBuIxjv
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMr8Wf2Qzr
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JX36df4Lu
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKmdBdXErz
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rP0HZ1u63
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVt1DwSv7AN
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEla3O2EsqW
「……？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCIRNmxc6s
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgUKiE4sj0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsPSd5Jdzt
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KvADHg6nY
「『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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTo6qc0W1y
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QEDR1B3Vf
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbKrWa5ScT
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPhVi4E89v
「白絃也是這麼說。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIiZK8U8gr
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZnDdvZyrz
艾莉絲抬頭，盯著天花板的一個點。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCAJMGz2j5
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlO2ls1VOeU
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPWcx1pfhQ
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuUVUsaYh4
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7PJk4Hm8E
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYfAqi7WWg
「宇維少爺，一定還有沒打出來的牌，只是我們不知道。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAqCrdhUqT
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5u2pSnSOu
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjnrRsT07U
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1gaF9VNSN
「作為艾莉絲，妳不會想做什麼嗎？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYkmAtZcsm
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWEKVeRyaP
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6H3R0bsFWW
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8OmsZfD9f
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhG8byPQ2E9
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6t5X3uFx5L
「……。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9VxFvjBHp
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jH2Gwjr6e
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaGgj6eGro
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8DTgDz47x
「什麼？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSy9ILV4TE
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKSgTr4zia
「說故事的人是羅琳娜，不是我。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1u1Cq2rD0f
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndoVZSh5XA
艾莉絲喝了一口拿鐵，今天的第五杯。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgT5hllPnH3
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYyaW1s6y0
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dRyy3rKxM
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7J4ux1y5hZ
艾莉絲閉上眼睛。470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyalnGuaNv
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOtsQn8q7k
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjMq548muQ
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMacMpTrlIs
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8MOv9XYil
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGmg33v98g
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatrQtCtn3m
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoI8qP7AUZ
「……。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ajNn9HXV9
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffgLcIRm8g
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLafRUjxCZ
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTXiIDx32m
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx2JxV6wsS
「沙利葉。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIzBryKIe4
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR5KZQJLqbc
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lxi0nvMfn
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK2yZxqLw9
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZOUx8ONRy
「羅琳娜，死於，沙利葉。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBfPF4dvOc
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJ4XJ4SXEr
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQgYdQNN5n
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHa6L1QDcI
「沙利葉……」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmc6rg3Q9mQ
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡum755cZOsq
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2VFCTpSaz
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhaY9Mkyg8
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJhDHrsg4r
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGKdcOFBH3
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgj9RhD0Rfi
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVg289CQoCe
艾莉絲陷入沉思。這時，賴梓綾又開口：「利維坦。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWUlUapPZQ
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJySw94qzML
「……？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXIYJ7x3uJ
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwK1D1pp1hz
「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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hoFg4wLPy
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqnqfMaeLG
「……！」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQVZ8ExlEt
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRY5DEUhlDZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQAGSSGyvc
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgMbFotJVC
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0V0Ryk9il9
「我想，小約翰所說的『沙利葉』，就是蜘蛛。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpfkkamp2R
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQecsM6ZNa
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY544S5Wv5
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFH8p2ix8L
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOqKSwnxsF
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8WmAUBfpy
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygaEXE1ZnE
「瘋帽，沒有跟你們說嗎？」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dol2p1LIR
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLwkoQzf5it
艾莉絲停頓，一字一句，說出令人震驚的事實──470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeV0PIdlSsb
470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3YvCcJi5t
「蜘蛛不只一個。」470Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKHuBubMbU
