2161年2月21日，下午七點，卡洛爾大廈381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHuHJ9pG2C
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡof32QTkZJp
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79oBQOQsyi
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWo7QKudA1k
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmbWiXgQlh
「你們想知道哪一方面？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruGhp1NJ7u
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6s97DbcpU
艾莉絲問他們。謝綠貪心地回答：「全部，我受夠一知半解了。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkNgDNTYHF
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdHGQMu3MQ
「……。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUXbTlfZor
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBNisg7410
「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。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa99A74x15b
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkQkDXaVrL
「……。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyxE4MfJvc
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRp8EEz8kr
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeBPBp36O6
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTtqFoQ45i
「怎麼了？」謝綠覺得她的視線很奇怪。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFosyHtOQCP
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRA3gaxiD3N
「不，沒什麼。」艾莉絲小聲地說：「原來妳的眼睛是這樣。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZMrcKwBZD
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAExbmoIgRO
「……？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0Po5h0h7L
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkR8JrktRx9
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GOP5UMKaQ
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡue74X2714k
「羅琳娜就是水果塔。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN2BtWORck
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqvgnvSgbo
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。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50v0UmWNjb
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9Sx0vnBC7
「照理說？」江云格聽到關鍵字。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EzLGRDXhY
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEbE8vOq1p
「白絃正在衰弱。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPB5qrNGui
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOXZeoGy3h
艾莉絲用別的稱呼，以此區分白絃的多重身份。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVMh2ukG34
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzv5OLvMgX
「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。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9oJvDPKEt
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CWY8WQnLG
「什麼機會？」謝綠問。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyKensEf7s
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlgn0PnIqZ
「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……」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1ZhqnDBec
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjTaQjKjeF
艾莉絲突然打住，冰冷的表情難得，出現類似困惑的情緒。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDWPOt9dZl
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7a1zHsmMKP
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ko10J6QUt
「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。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRqaWCg9Qj
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3zPZM21dy
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBarAIxnCm
「……？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4Aow3wCyv
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgxEqSqOha
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAhubGTG2L
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuS88oVa9k
「『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？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8uXayBQuN
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6KLC0DWkK
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？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7egyrL3EBo
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5lDgjpCYw
「白絃也是這麼說。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkBclI8axf
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfE7oKvgxp
艾莉絲抬頭，盯著天花板的一個點。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnTgX3NIuo
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyYZ168kJB
「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。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OaNfizEX1
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7uBnBOBa8
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6RrTKSMGR
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RAz2GfA1B
「宇維少爺，一定還有沒打出來的牌，只是我們不知道。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41yd8jw7sQ
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vxTmxNN2n
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyp22022fhV
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAJNavW31I
「作為艾莉絲，妳不會想做什麼嗎？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnTzEE16sR
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNIC48kUYr
謝綠突然問，艾莉絲難得眨眼，似乎不明白她在問什麼。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB16aO81Hbr
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TyVm77Gs9
「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？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9BWskf1fu
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDIpSuHn1J
「……。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkb4MFgUXy
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSuiNvgAcN
艾莉絲低頭。她沉默很久，才緩緩開口：「我隨時都會被取代。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVLBxJI8A8
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs1Ad71hAZ
「什麼？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3cAwq82Ma
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISn8uVSHPI
「說故事的人是羅琳娜，不是我。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr35DpR64Ec
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYrZiLKqB2
艾莉絲喝了一口拿鐵，今天的第五杯。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWAroILeRM
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJmJ0lniCD
「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。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLR0Wwdov3
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAo0GbWZfd
艾莉絲閉上眼睛。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WVuehRrkp
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmszkhP1U0r
「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。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYFEh6VrUy
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AtBSuKV7M
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSo1yfpBjV9
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXaxr4d3kb
「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？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzqmriccvO
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uueXGYAkY
「……。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡug14KocwC5
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybDIwZvKh9
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAoVLrVNwO
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYPOOevoFs
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGQeNcpiqC
「沙利葉。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGvpBWdx3B
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY39xdMOkKi
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkeeu5aUfb
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLGKZQVZ1n
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENhhNcEUex
「羅琳娜，死於，沙利葉。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05mSIeiuHN
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFpYrGzjFy
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEt5AZYafw
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB13hoebWTi
「沙利葉……」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLr9bxMrU1Y
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYQNsPXN3W
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPKwxxq7tk
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBB7Kduzua
「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？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6TwdMOEP6
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxDcYMb3bg
謝綠也問：「沙利葉到底是誰，羅琳娜為什麼會死於沙利葉？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BxKllGwlP
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFoCfQfxcM
艾莉絲陷入沉思。這時，賴梓綾又開口：「利維坦。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaKJWZPFk8
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkioC6gmT3
「……？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZrX3EnZtd
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsnnpRs3ys
「沙利葉，回來。」賴梓綾斷斷續續地說：「和，利維坦，一起回來。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvOLQI63bG
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2vqeQidhE
「……！」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZiEdPXlsB
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQcqqE3rBh
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqpufQZazE
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5yX1NT1cQ
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtK0TLtnyu
「我想，小約翰所說的『沙利葉』，就是蜘蛛。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w7y74nK9h
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4aSWOEljZ
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVasKbpCkD
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？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFForK00rOy
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlITa8lpcU
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。381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84Ee2428uZ
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOaFGuEmsW
「瘋帽，沒有跟你們說嗎？」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnGEtOa3dO
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9y9t6bJsv
艾莉絲停頓，一字一句，說出令人震驚的事實──381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3A59mq6X4n
381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0SafVF8Jb
「蜘蛛不只一個。」381Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwwmUZGncC
