2154年12月24日，晚上七點，黑教堂836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ727DITUSf0
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjSFPc6s8f
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJZO6fvjWT
主辦人──薩拉凱爾教教主致詞後，晚宴在七點準時開始。現場準備許多珍饈佳餚，世界最知名的樂隊在前方演奏，機器服務生送來各式各樣的美酒。原本以為是嚴肅的宴會，沒想到氣氛活潑，像屬於貴族的派對。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xCn1FpLsK
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJtvn6sB95
「……。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iYXqR1Ft4
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRspO4aTqsn
不過，他現在很尷尬。謝賢讓他和謝綠獨處，顧爾不能在隨侍在旁。李晴煬和謝綠靠在牆邊，不知道要說什麼。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsvXQympAf
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5rnwwKEPp
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO798WydHhh
「觀自在菩薩。行深般若波羅蜜多時。照見五蘊皆空。度一切苦厄。舍利子。色不異空。空不異色。色即是空。空即是色……」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpLpapeStb
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2DR9bVBlY
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8DmfykiFU
和晚宴氣氛很不相符，他竟然從謝綠身上，聽到和尚誦經的聲音；因為太另類，李晴煬對她留下深刻的印象。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDowwDpbPVA
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFIvzKp9pU
而且，謝綠很漂亮──李晴煬無法否認，眼前的女孩讓他十分著迷，尤其是草綠色的眼睛。她渾身散發一個「靜」字，小小年紀，彷彿看透很多事。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fdnmQkmXi
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzbOGbcGUe
「你是第一次參加？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIp7vX4siBc
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yLxvuSLen
李晴煬不知道怎麼開話題，謝綠率先開口，打破尷尬的氣氛。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrWMKozKYY
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGHafC3IlL
喝著專為小孩調配的無酒精雞尾酒，李晴煬回應：「嗯。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOhp6mvM7I
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBPj7d9gil
「之前為什麼缺席？」謝綠單刀直入地問。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUusimjEza
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkqg6VSLJi
「討厭人多的地方。」李晴煬簡單回答。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBrv02iOqf
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMD5Uz1DbB
「今年又為什麼來？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNhXyWaQss
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepiozVm0co
「見見世面。」李晴煬聳肩，「不能一直窩在家裡。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTk1YbMo9U5
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigQ4qQqFss
謝綠沉默。李晴煬覺得剛才的氣氛不錯，換他問：「妳呢？每年都來？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6mYy1kVZ2
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL83RRjOeoY
「八歲開始，這是第三次。」謝綠沒有逃避他的問題，老實回答。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwHXDuni0t
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsF8WB3nfFD
「為什麼？」李晴煬看著謝綠厭世的臉，「妳不像喜歡這種場合的人。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJpAmyDHuN
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0andL4Zih
「還能因為什麼？我是被拖來的。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2Z6UYPwHz
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY15U1sgqdM
李晴煬聽見謝綠嘆氣的聲音。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ269h2xHReC
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQCR1GJIzd
「在場的人，妳都認識嗎？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r1m8jx4MW
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzUCmisUh4
謝綠一定知道十大家族的事，李晴煬決定問問，以免氣氛又變尷尬。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bvrsAaL61
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgUbgd89eg
「大部分知道。」謝綠看向他，「你都不認識？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjvAhgFqtu
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVJXa53RfP
李晴煬點頭。謝綠沉默幾秒，「好吧。」帶李晴煬去角落，好一次看到全部的人。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYD0JHadmj
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjhJ38Euqq
「我一直很想問。」前往角落的路上，謝綠上上下下審視他一番，「李門的穿衣品味都這麼怪？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYH3C26HvOW
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Sdv0HWUfX
李晴煬想回答「妳以為我願意嗎？」但不像自己會說的話，改用挑釁的語氣：「怎麼？本少爺這樣不好看？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiF1HjRYW7T
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIii1p12CNT
「嗯。」謝綠秒答，補了句：「活像個娘炮。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfgJb4HwSB
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanQSCf3hDb
「娘炮」兩字像一隻箭，狠狠從李晴煬胸前穿了過去。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXwip8PWvu
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0pWBWbQJB
「妳的穿衣品味才奇怪！哪有人古裝下面搭短裙！」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpQulq5768
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofXHpTQQUn
「比較好活動。」謝綠哼了一聲，「我父親都沒說什麼，你管那麼多幹嘛？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURGE5t8G4Q
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUMPzXz19B
「妳……！」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Po7ArqfmH
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouFiEi1KMo
「啊，這兒就行了，要從哪一家開始介紹呢……？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvw8goOlLKZ
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYRoiK11UQ
謝綠規避掉話題。雖然表情不多、年紀又小，但她講話很不客氣，顯然沒在怕李晴煬。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfEqiCeMaW
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidlaqW12e7
李晴煬撇了撇嘴，順著謝綠手指的方向看去──那群穿醫師袍的年輕人。李晴煬率先說：「希波克拉底一脈。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3PK1q4Lvc
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tf3SBpYkc
「你知道？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzd16yF84R
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iDfvyuNzt
「聽來的。」李晴煬說：「詳細不清楚。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsRJIO6Zhj
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RpLnHXwwG
「嗯，看來我高估你了。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruwKl4loDu
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwZ27LuE2d
李晴煬的嘴角抽動幾下。謝綠不理他，專心介紹：836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPba2NgzkPr
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TWkybYdWr
「希波克拉底一脈，十大家族第九，擅長領域是醫學，家族成員都是醫生、藥劑師、法醫、醫檢師……全世界的醫院，背後的經營者都是他們。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHi65b7K7Hr
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUkMUcJuqB
謝綠雙手環胸，用一種非常帥氣的姿勢，靠在牆上。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgx8re2SYi
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiF3JMpOle
「傳說他們的家族成員，全是古希臘時代的醫學大師──希波克拉底的後代。但年代久遠，沒有統一姓氏，才用祖先的名字統稱。」謝綠說。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXnDnnR4FY
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrPxmBcuCs
「他們平常都這樣，穿醫師袍晃來晃去？」李晴煬問。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih3GPYwQsf
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsP8HAxcSPs
「每個家族都有自己的穿衣風格。希波克拉底一脈以醫生為榮，醫師袍是身分的象徵。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxRDK1fdna
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuUsqCk86W
謝綠的眼睛改看向另一群人。李晴煬順著她的視線看去──把滾筒衛生紙裹在身上的貴婦。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6gmn2mMTP
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8wVrH3b8w
「雷蒙一家。」謝綠說：「十大家族第八，時尚業的壟斷者。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPupZnFYb6
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBV4XDfhAJ
「時…時尚？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fPlcqzXro
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9WVypIwF7
李晴煬挑眉。不只捲筒衛生紙，有人的髮型像花椰菜，有人的洋裝像菜瓜布，還有一個女人的披肩是黑色垃圾袋。時尚真難懂。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwvrlQr0zA
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqx3OzUnCs
「今年算收斂了。」謝綠看出李晴煬的疑惑，告訴他：「我去年，看過把色鉛筆插在頭上的。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7beVvDfelv
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJG3K6Umz3
「穿這種衣服還能笑……要是本少爺，恨不得死了個算了。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguF4EdDpzv
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYQrpcGJFV
李晴煬說完，聽見謝綠發出輕輕的笑聲。沒想到她會笑──李晴煬心想，心情不自覺好起來。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvf9LLgdkEl
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDodQEFPBTw
「雷蒙一家旗下的品牌，從服裝到飾品，還有專門培訓藝人的經紀公司；另外，他們家的物流技術也很創新，不少零售店搶著和他們合作。」謝綠故意補充：「而且，他們家的人都很漂亮。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcyUCiJQ5f
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxG3fGM838
「……不把那身恐怖的衣服脫掉，本少爺無法體會。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrDFp0DIsK
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeR9nAmHpw
視線離開雷蒙一家，李晴煬改看向另一群──正在會場中央表演魔術、射飛鏢、拋彩球的馬戲團人士。晚宴的氣氛之所以活潑，都拜這群小丑所賜。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspCnH7nU1R
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wp4tbudUv
「那又是誰？」李晴煬問謝綠。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dCQpmCN7Q
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6s5mDq9sqF
「史密斯馬戲團，十大家族第七，慈善事業。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRmiK02c4b
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45UTWdMA0V
謝綠說完，其中一名史密斯變出一堆彩色氣球，逗得周遭人笑聲不斷、表情又驚又喜。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ID0wbpNqt
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLtjEE4FgZ
「史密斯居無定所，他們在全世界巡迴演出，收入都拿去照顧弱勢，是聲望很高的家族，但也因為這樣，他們不是很富有。」謝綠說。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXQjXhtaDG
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn71meyr52a
「聽起來很偉大。」李晴煬附和。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlDeSX395s
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7X27HEey0G
「坦白說，他們挺奇妙的。聖誕晚宴是史密斯少數參加的活動，其他正式場合，一概不參加。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1BhR4Iwtq
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRSiWfYXki
介紹完，謝綠的手指向另一群人。李晴煬剛好想問，畢竟，他看那群光速戰士很久了。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hg1577xHF
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgu9qOzAGE
「白與金，統稱Platinum。白家壟斷科技，金家壟斷軍火，兩家因為婚姻關係結合。十大家族第五和第六，是非常強的軍火聯盟，絕對不容小覷。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnns4egyBe
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3E2tfvwRqH
李晴煬對他們的服裝更感興趣。謝氏像武俠小說的角色，Platinum則是遊戲，會發射高速激光的那種。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr4WsFYGIG
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcK2GZmiYg
「他們漂浮在空中？」李晴煬踮腳尖，試著看清楚。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsLlxEmCqm
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFO797SAW3t
「嗯，他們腳底的投影圖騰，那是漂浮裝置。」謝綠說。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpykFl38rRH
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeS4XLfRjO
「背上那又是什麼？翅膀？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIUDqKwz3l
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaD5jgM7sse
「那也是投影，圖案會隨他們的情緒變化……你看，變成橘色了，那個人現在心情很好。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjoDiYLdBM
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPMmUFgx24
Platinum的穿衣風格非常前衛。移動時，兩腳懸浮在空中，衣服還會飄起來，浮空時的畫面很好看，但科技感太強，給人的感覺很不真實。明明是人類，卻把自己弄得像機器人。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dlEJnNzMU
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDPbVgU8tz
「黑色教袍的是薩拉凱爾教、十八世紀貴族打扮的是李門、像從漢朝穿越來的是謝氏……這些你都知道了。」謝綠把胸前的手放下來，看著李晴煬的臉，「還有不知道的嗎？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbi6xPIR8ab
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iDXw92hxl
「妳怎麼只介紹八個？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMw7U1104T
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rpUptgO3m
李晴煬發現，前後的高宇維與夏家，謝綠都沒有說。聽完他的問題，謝綠意味深長地陷入沉默，沉默持續了一陣子。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh9uWlaGSN
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDjwIoCamV
「沒介紹的兩家，都沒有出席。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgDlslMC2o
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoRfePsAe5
不等李晴煬問，謝綠就告訴他：836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPrrrsMdGH
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UCFCGuXb1
「夏家……十大家族第十，是非常奇怪的家族。他們比高宇維還神秘，沒有人知道他們在做什麼、裡面有誰，連他們住在哪都不知道。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3gdri54BX
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDutjbss0M
「這樣也算十大家族？」李晴煬立刻問。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZNPin2ZNv
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnGJLrGNm4
「我也不知道，但神秘歸神秘，他們也沒做什麼。」謝綠聳肩。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlToIFivbZ
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4RYkJgdOo
「高宇維呢？」問完夏家，李晴煬再問另一個缺席者：「他這麼跩，這種場合都不來？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5uYimmAul
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8kwjUVdSW
「別說『這種場合』，高宇維連自己的活動都不出席。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRTvJtzxAo
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtRPJFwDSw
謝綠說，似是對高宇維的缺席見怪不怪。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbwQTnYgQt
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVeirWypNg
「我不知道怎麼說，高宇維好像不喜歡其他家族，想和我們劃清關係，可是──」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqI1oEJPAMJ
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Mwcyre8L6
謝綠把話停在這兒。她的眼神突然變得十分銳利、似乎在警戒什麼。李晴煬順著她的視線看去，赫然對上一雙眼睛，嚇得他後退兩步。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMhDBHJBwO
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQGtOMD5TD
「……。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvuNCeMFMv
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBP2M5s6UAp
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOjRhn2bPE
一名白色頭髮的男子，正從遠遠的地方看著他們。836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27S61Pljzl
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQT3uDjEarm
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXgFGUzTg7
男子是整個會場，唯一穿著正常西裝的人。他離李晴煬和謝綠很遠，但筆直的視線彷彿要把刺穿。李晴煬不自覺感到緊張，旁邊的謝綠瞪了回去，跟李晴煬說：836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PHgdQbs9I
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ljOquQ9rx
「可是今年，高宇維派他的親信來了。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapCfpBMsWD
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4fAaWctLZ
謝綠不敢掉以輕心，就怕一不留神，男子會做出不利她的舉動。李晴煬問謝綠：「親信？」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9vtrSTTuH
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt0bhgIeA4
「對，親信──你聽過神與畜吧？他是第一幹部、地位僅次於高宇維。」836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNIpVFIjd7
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVaBnEPp69
謝綠的雙刀已經蓄勢待發。她一手握住刀柄，說出那個禁忌的名字──836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoe3QcgVaFq
836Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXQjcXbA5t
「里奧．懷特。」
