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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3X12M2K2K
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWd3iSEKc7q
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwufwf5jUq
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZbWeBilCK
「亞里，找到你了。」她說。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5lYTs2uvX
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArPdGyDxmm
盡頭的人影瑟縮在影子裡，緊緊的抱住自己，像一顆頑石。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfDVxqWafI
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVGg767eNz
「友梨嗎？」她哽咽，｢為甚麼知道我在這兒……｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNbTixnC8V
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0sxVYxEi3
「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。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvQDhCICpk
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi71xuNKis
「我不回去。」她說。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXOltshfMr
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ239DxUBad
「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。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DqXfQxKzO
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32OpKx70eG
友梨邊說邊輕步走近——438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJOcCFxplN
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zAyY5Aras
「不要過來！」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvPoJfLfwK
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fsqgCzTKP
友梨止住腳步，她未聽過亞里如此大聲。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7IRD7YIbw
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyjBJVMpEX
「我沒事，你先走吧，我待會就會回去。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsGqXRLQHp
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLME9hdKMZ
『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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlc0BDV8Mc
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIxYllRaky
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVZ7tA7HQj
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATDYBGn7Tu
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVaLXBhhWz
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpdfHbmdEi
一塊染上液體的玻璃碎片。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrb12l884QG
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44fHV9QTsq
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OvbaRbIAR
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcj6Rg6M88
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYegEahdub6
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknqBv6FVTv
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9ANn8iZKT
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEVTWSnR6z
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlgSnbArZg
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtmJdj0cUi
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yEJkOsczp
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qAxISfmnv
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWSrsbnEvg
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOP0QZZQjq
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVAFrtvMir
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbEcFfKwzY
「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。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5a63LrAos
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpQDWBUHTY
亞里想抽回手臂，但友梨不容許，兩手拉住她。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0bhANSUpM
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuHGmxxZhg
「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。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIHslrXJsU
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseR4iPL9Zf
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxO1twXc6b
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwc8gzKbjf
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsC07m36Flw
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRg7wmnnN6
友梨撿起三角形的玻璃碎片，上面還滴著液體。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHBm4Lqyob
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJySks6EC2N
「當心，會割傷你的手。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzk5zaIr9eO
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsQtF8k1nS
「這正是我要做的。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bRYcAeWHS
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhwhy2R87F
她把玻璃交到亞里手中。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0V31OvTEsn
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2qxPYHBMu
「割我的手。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsKYCisYMo
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk0MhJjzwh3
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——｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrrrpuhecC
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEcIBsl7A7
「會痛吧。」友梨說，｢割我的手會讓你感受到痛。｣438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUbYZPWl9T

「三刀而已，可以喔。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHbiRMgBVx
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdGlFk3VW3
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrWG5qnfzR
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNnI1Mxo6S
玻璃滑過人工皮膚，劃上一道印痕。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReoIaLssoZ
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwsI1jq1rI
「太淺了，下回再用力一點。」友梨說。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGi19cIP3os
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8LLNoMvfH
「嗯。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE15qJXRFxD
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf02u6oLR5s
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJMonHFERk
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmmU5VY2Ss
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKiOlGWx84
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8Msin8Ar8
「對不起……」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8A96azFmy

「沒關係，下回小力一點。」438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaO0O8kWwLb
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCAtxKeWj1
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRg5CdzLhM8
438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMDPd1RMgc
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。438Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk84TnD6JAg
