「你是……」新河混濁的雙眼微微睜大。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXpj3jkRCW
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlxp62WqiO
「您好，我是萬事屋的玄鶚。」玄鶚看似輕鬆的微笑，實際上嘴角正在抽搐。「……在詳細談話之前，得請你先恢復生前的樣子……喔，不不，是先收斂一下現在四射的思念與焦躁。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq42vc9FSNW
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqL7yBQnbXP
「咦……？」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oPmLYVnwK
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknLVkgZNK7
「嗯啊，看來你完全沒有察覺啊？這傢伙因為你散發的戾氣快要撐不住了呀，請深呼吸一下，讓腦袋暫時放空吧！」玄鶚指指身邊因感到痛苦而揪緊衣襟的少女幽靈。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyL2l7otE4V
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2evGiUZ6Y
新河呆呆順著玄鶚的手指看去。雖然不明所以，還是嘗試照做了。深呼吸幾次後，少年幽靈身上的血跡漸漸變淡，而後消失。只剩下尖刀還握在手中。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfq5XEVQcp
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLeIL9eMHL
「……只要這樣就可以了嗎？」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEYwR1D7x5
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioz2nVunmX
四周的氛圍變得緩和，針扎的觸感也趨緩不少。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEbi7YDK30
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5peLYUkhY
「嗯嗯！可以可以！」玄鶚點點頭。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXh4vtk5qkV
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVUAFjTykr
萌理佳鬆了口氣，卻還是待在玄鶚身側，修補搖搖欲墜的靈體。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswzL4Ikehr
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzt8TEBdmF8
「我們撿到了這些紙飛機，因上面的求救訊息而來。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIkYEMEzhd
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1BF1Sjoly
新河望著紙張上的文字，陷入沉默。他不記得自己有寫下這些，也沒有摺紙……依照現狀，他連紙都無法取得。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFUI9MERIC
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtV3v62CX3I
然而，紙張上的血跡與襯衫上的一樣令人不忍卒睹。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IwunxexZu
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAft0xFN1os
「我不知道……我什麼都不記得了。我沒有做出紙飛機，也沒有筆可以書寫，就像你看到的，我無法放下握在手中的這把刀。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMZwAcjumC
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7zLLVe5g1
這樣的話，紙飛機本身只是新河意念的具象化。無論往建築外投出多久、多少個紙飛機，眼前的少年都沒有察覺到這件事。他不知道自己變成了活人畏懼的幽靈。帶著尖銳而寒冷的氣息存在於此，自己卻毫無意識。全都是一片空白。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cauPd3z07
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjZdMJ5p3v
所以說，眼前的少年究竟是哪一方呢？依照傳說，有三個外校男生被指使到這個學校來，是殺害了女學生？還是刺殺了同夥呢？336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvX1kj7nRFr
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYxjjnOxp8
有其他可能性嗎？336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEyWhGpGKb
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyIpnlMEQ0
依照玄鶚與萌理佳所見，少年幽靈握著生前用以殘殺或是守護的凶器，全身染血，走不出這層樓，一直在這裡徘徊。但本人卻什麼都不記得，目前唯一的線索就是白兔。這根本就是所謂的「案情陷入膠著」。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JsCppGBMC
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaFuGOcD5i
「走不出去……」玄鶚往女兒牆外探頭，「沒有跳出去試看看嗎？」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiLtPkcJOc
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45tJqtQUnR
萌理佳和少年一起露出驚愕的表情。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURBrNjvGYu
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FNebzL1tW
「玄鶚，你在說啥！怎麼可能……這是四樓耶！」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZtMUnyBeF
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGJiFzS4AC
「之前是有想要跳……」新河蠕動嘴唇說出驚人之語。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCmPdzfTIC
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CLDLKzGeC
什麼！萌理佳不可置信地望向少年緩緩垂下的頭顱。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJchvY9dLJv
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKa85iupws
「但因為太高了，很可怕，所以……」不敢跳。新河頓時羞紅了臉，變得像哪家的小家碧玉。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLYzh84s5u
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUduvtdccjo
啊……玄鶚了然於心。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1qbpQ1y9Q
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnAhO6vwY9
「我是開玩笑的咩。其實就算跳了也會回到原處啦！就算不會再死一次，也請別做傻事。」他揮揮手。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCynVCRVuQm
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UjOe2fE6X
那麼…… 336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdne5Ce0kzJ
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zkjSxuN4R
「現在怎麼辦？」萌理佳眉頭微蹙，望著態度一派輕鬆的黑色少年。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOrmF3TIkk
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXV9joqJMb
「嘛嘛，不必擔心啦！」玄鶚甚至打了個呵欠，「既然萬事屋來了，就沒什麼好擔心了。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4XWxhT7cV
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJVmbekREn
他一掌拍上灑落新河肩上的夕陽。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTGZ6WzyAJ
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgj9lP6lIYz
「一切就交給我們吧！」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLIXRIUBs8
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqrBundbmW
＊336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU19hM6ElL
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvpK8JiOch
代表萬事屋出差的兩人就這樣踩著溫暖厚重的夕陽步上回程。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSMXp0QT6L
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmjtPeBszX
「玄鶚！玄鶚！」由於腿的長度不同，萌理佳得用小跑步才能跟上黑色少年的腳步。「等一下！玄鶚！」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XRSNTKmfm
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl50IxKJpNN
「唉……幹什麼啦？」玄鶚只往後方稍微轉過臉來，語氣稀鬆平常。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbj1pe8mwA
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oRelRHK50
「我們……就……就這樣丟下他嗎？」兔耳充滿彈性的上下跳動。萌理佳喘著氣，剛剛受到的損傷還沒完全復原。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyHyDUYhYk
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OEqDca1Te
「嗯。」玄鶚只丟出一個單音，繼續往圍牆邊的人行道跨步。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQk3a6XBXVY
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4OwPWNwra
這個人……怎麼講的那麼輕描淡寫啊？萌理佳又追了上去。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFyBkip6bI
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNABFi3nfKC
「沒……沒關係嗎？讓他一個人在那裡……哎呀，你等一下啦！」她一把拉住少年的深色夾克。玄鶚總算停下腳步。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIbg2iimyp
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyT7R2amK4
「妳幹嘛那麼緊張啊？喔……喂喂，妳還好吧？」他一轉過身，才發現萌理佳已經握著膝蓋喘著粗氣。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCyncpR3as
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MuxUUpNgo
「當然緊張啊！我……呼呼！咳咳……你……」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZSHSxAgA7
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuFE0rSMum
玄鶚腦中的天線忽然接通了。喔，對喔。她剛剛受到那少年的影響……336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxMpB3b24G
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3JZ6UCaVv
「唉……知道啦、知道啦！妳先休息一下。」他說，伸手拍拍她的背給她順氣。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjg2ZNHGiy
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCfJqy7tZR
過了一陣，萌理佳的呼吸總算平穩許多。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPC1RPSa7J
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTEg4CA68E
「那個啊，不需要緊張咩！因為萬事屋來了呀。」玄鶚說。話語裡並不包含自負，單純只是闡述事實。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooL045fTzp
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwPhH6Xh49
「這是……什麼意思啊？」萌理佳的神情像是困窘，也像感到辛苦。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymDDMFylS6
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBkXFkxfhD
「哪，這世上事出必有因。新河會變成地縛靈也一定是有理由的吶。他會獨自待在那個校舍，或許是有什麼東西遺失在那裡。失去的記憶一定包含在內，然而，應該還有其他的因素造成他被綁縛在當初死亡的地方。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IbTO6Hz67
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGcUshW1tl
好艱深……萌理佳聽不太懂，但還是努力動腦跟上玄鶚說的話。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Zs7XEiQpI
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzNt6lLR63
「也就是說……只要找到他死亡時的記憶，或許就能找出變成地縛靈的原因，也就能幫他離開榕樓了嗎？」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICBF4lS48S
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDQ7Fbr1dR
「正是。」玄鶚露出幼稚園老師欣慰的微笑。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnM48wCki9s
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAqN2kqfvs
但是，也可能會是另一種局面。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzSHwLdYps
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvf0fM0XlB
那種猜測比任何發展都更加殘酷，也不會是和平收場。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJWCzj67E7
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBlHEm7OzD
只會是悲劇。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71tlJurnJN
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEY9B8rVob
「那，我們現在要怎麼做？」什麼都不知道的萌理佳眨著天真無邪的雙眼。沒發現兔子頭套因為剛才的狼狽而歪斜。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gIWAMA5O8
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRWRPYWKeC
玄鶚伸出纖細卻有力的手掌，拍上毛絨絨的雪白，將頭套挪正。自行道樹間篩落的夕陽打上少年透出群青色的髮梢，靛藍的瞳仁中，萌理佳的眼睛瞪得更大了。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHJ3Z7zDYE
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3PwaaKe61
「等待就行。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh19eIf3X0G
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVciq7gdMk9
直到萌理佳回到萬事屋，感覺還是飄飄然的。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHNffVaLrm
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVXcjLZngb
夜晚很快就來臨了。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz3XksYyFa
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjt4mR07NEk
連同絳雉，三人圍在萬事屋內側，巨大畫作前方的辦公桌附近，整理今日得到的線索。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhITXYnVMtg
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fIcqC9fzN
「原來如此。」絳雉輕撫線條柔美的下顎，心裡似乎已經有了底。「確實只需要等待時機成熟。這次的委託算是輕鬆。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7gBSPPcwr
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR0DBgtnP8
但萌理佳可不覺得輕鬆。要知道她可是一度以為自己要被對方的氣息刺穿了，簡直是九死一生。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmveUueT6H
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmJ5WnDyqn
「那個，可以用我聽得懂的話說嗎？」萌理佳不滿的鼓起雙頰。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0Z2IZ3vrL
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNbOyNnVt5
絳雉與玄鶚交換了一個眼神。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jFztHzuuk
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZBT20Cdds
「自古至今，活人要是非自然或是意外死亡，便會出現喪失記憶的情況。並非全部都是，但也不在少數。若是死亡當時的情況混亂，這種情形便相對常見。人死後變成靈，能夠思考與記憶的大腦死去，變得只剩下人性最根本的情感。靈魂即以此為依據來行動，即便沒有記憶還是下意識地產生執著，成為意識被束縛在身體，或者意義重大的事物或地點的靈。」絳雉以平穩清澈的語調說明。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAhBmEhM84
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOhx60iivq
新河是歸類於將意識束縛於死亡地點的「地縛靈」。而束縛，即為執著，新河很可能對那條長廊、那座女廁懷有執念。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmCDZ154G5
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZa3Gj09M1
「萬事屋的職責在於協助靈魂回歸輪迴。我們四處游移，哪裡有需要幫助的靈就往哪裡去。而地縛靈雖然是擁有執念而留於原地，彌留人間，但總有例外的時候。那個幽靈既然已經徘徊榕樓許久才遇見萬事屋，就代表生前做錯了事，作為懲罰而暫時讓祂待在原處。目的是懲處，也是為了讓靈魂為自己的作為反省。也就是說，失去記憶的新河，可能是因潛意識的執念，也可能是因『規則』上的贖罪而困在當初死亡之地。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQVMGgUvQp
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsvaqL6sKe
「可是……他不是已經不記得了嗎？這樣懲罰又有什麼意義？」萌理佳搔搔臉頰，提出合理的質疑。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIsvGonOqv
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxQGuQCOLx
「本人即使不記得，上面還是會這樣做啦。祂一定是對誰有所虧欠，才會被扣留，也是因為有所執著，才會緊緊握著手中的刀。」玄鶚說道，「萬事屋只會尋找需要幫助的靈魂。我們如今來到祂面前，表示事情即將有所轉機。因此只需要等待。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVFdZFC83O
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxcHQczYeT
等待……等待什麼呢？336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxz6qtgxQoi
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEz3azWbHHL
「等待祂的記憶咩。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXnJti8BR4
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIQtQ5Ixfb
萌理佳似懂非懂。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡww4SGzxoOD
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dcaar8yNF
只有新河一個人的話，根本尋不回自己的記憶。但萬事屋又說只需要等著，而不是協助尋回……這究竟是怎麼回事？336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKFU2brrwk
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFyv3Vg4Y4
要是長年來都想不起來，已經深埋靈魂深處的回憶會忽然從天上掉下來的話，那新河也不會徬徨那麼久了吧……336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNTGk2v7yO
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZSBqKedEf
絳雉看穿萌理佳的思維，但沉默著垂下眼瞼。336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡledb9Hh1LM
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPHDD4gkyI
玄鶚伸長手臂，打了個大呵欠。「無論是什麼樣的轉機，我們都無權過問。只能說凡間俗世，上天都會有所安排吶。」336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dZqpiU657
336Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hPmyvs9K8
