「嗚嗯……」趴臥在木桌上的人影發出呻吟，嘗試移動長時間壓迫的雙手卻不慎碰倒一旁的雜物，巨大聲響伴隨揚起的灰塵，里多這才夢境中醒來。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczqkQzzJfl
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3WXT3kdQL
「咳、咳…」他不記得自己是什麼時候睡著的，但根據壓在他臉下東西來看，里多極有可能是在思考基礎法陣時失去意識的，眼前一堆幾何圖形加上他還不是很懂的符號，對一個剛進門的新手來說跟催眠曲差不多。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttw4iWLK50
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2IEoJBi9i
「早安，里多。」

循著發聲處看去，里多的新夥伴坐在窗台邊，清晨的陽光從窗外照在她身上，使得原先淡黃色的毛顯得更為透亮，帝妲抖了幾下耳朵，似乎已醒來多時又或是一夜未眠。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3DcDuvIhP
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHu3pC1j1A
「…嗯，帝妲妳也早安。」里多抓抓頭，還不是很清醒。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mbGrhiXM8
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0BB5ElfN0
「先去洗把臉，我在客廳等你。」帝妲說完甩著尾巴離開窗邊。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5E4tuwUgHW
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3kc8fX9YS
里多縱使感覺疑惑，還是乖乖走去盥洗，經過一段時間的相處，里多大致上能了解帝妲一些行為的用意。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiY6r1C5GR
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zMJbHCFV5
所以當里多走到客廳時第一眼就注意躺在桌上的包裹跟信。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmG5COHCVIm
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkOIyW1m5l
「你的頭怎麼了？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0aU4aO1Rj
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1oMJuH3Vm
「嗄？」里多一恍神，下意識摸向問題處，「我試著沾水，它還是一樣亂翹。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sThBnQ01d
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTmevUZANz
「那什麼？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqxgGSncd5
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqnJlJu3C9
「魔法協會寄來的信，應該是任務。」帝妲用鼻子頂了下信封上蠟封，說出她的推測。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4iyEY0iWD
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2VPv2Tomi
里多小心的把信拆開，比起這個他更在意一旁的黑色盒子，但帝妲好像比較希望他先處理協會的事。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPMpQH7K4b
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSHEx8yjVi
「信上說要我們重新繳交照片。」里多把信攤開放在帝妲面前，他知道她想自己再確認一次。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zhsbWGcdj
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OYkRjswFN
「原來如此。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkALjTdcdoR
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhYfPo1tZU
「可是我沒有正式服裝。」里多當初只簡單收拾必要行李，更別提什麼魔法師正裝，在旅行前他還只是個普通小孩。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ45hSVstr
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNAKvAgYrn
「你現在可以拆包裹了。」帝妲說，用毛茸茸的前掌把包裹往里多的方向推。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTNoAdSZTn
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcO8th5vAUr
他把盒子放在腳上，想起不久前收到的禮物，他清楚記得打開時的興奮情緒，那套父母親送的夏季套裝他還沒穿過，里多並沒有把它帶走。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFZ14NnobM
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnZRGWuMng
里多掀開盒內包裝用的襯紙，摸在手心裡的黑色布料是柔軟的，帶有一點香氣，襯衫、領結、短褲，最後是一件長長的斗篷，里多翻遍包裹裡的東西，就是沒找到任何留言或署名。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjT8MO3zYx
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hiSpXPONM
他帶著不確定的眼神看向帝妲。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4Vj6h7new
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1OlLhb5vS
「…收下吧，這的確是給你的。」帝妲心裡清楚，但她認為還不是時候。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlckABzNEQI
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpxUCR6r5v
里多不覺得這是巧合。在那之前，他得煩惱的是該怎麼解決魔法協會派來的第一個任務。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPBnEDdarx
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06KveoCw5j
正裝有了，可…照片？32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRR0dcf11gx
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aUk8lqUdc
停頓三秒，里多像是想起什麼跑回房間，帝妲則是坐在原地等待，經過一陣明顯是翻箱倒櫃的聲音後，里多回來手上多了個東西。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnJkVhxl9p
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDcsc1nOis
「從出門到現在都沒充過電，我不確定它還能撐多久…」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcA4OHr2CR
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsU2g2dIe7
是數位相機。里多一邊檢視一路到山脊城所拍的照片，原是是為了紀錄方向避免迷路，卻意外發現多數照片裡都能見到黃色大狗的身影，里多不由自主地揚起嘴角。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpAte73a5f
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKg64jb4QC
不知情的當事人甩甩尾巴，「那還等什麼，趕快拍拍回送任務資料。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTqmD6grD6
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbZlilXsoY
里多經提醒後回神，才看見電源顯示上頻繁閃爍的紅燈，果不然相機螢幕下一秒收黑。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9aCts7abt
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMXoURfg8F
「啊！」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHhaBM505P
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPaHnAFfJM
「我記得來之前有說過，山脊城好比原始村落沒水沒電，就算最近的有電城市也要走上三天路程，我敢保證絕對趕不上截止時間。」帝妲哼哼幾聲，走到一旁喝水。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0hZciOz0g
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPszLFYVQn
「嗯…下次開機就要決勝負了。」里多估算殘於電量還能拍一張照片，暫且放下相機，進而研究起只在電視裡看過的魔法師服裝。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVmx9J7FTU
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbRQhGzAWn
沒有想像中困難，就跟日常衣服一樣，不過材質讓人驚喜，意外的穿起來很舒服，不過－－－32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCc7LVOcPI
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25268zoNE8
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLMTwHoqOt
「斗篷好像太長了。」身型是符合但過長的下襬拖在後頭，里多不自然的拉著斗篷，帝妲則是歪著頭。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXnHXNVMUE
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLtRht1IXZ
里多再次拿起相機，信上是說照片，但沒說明要全身、半身或大頭，而他只有一次拍攝的機會。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cs2jUk8RT
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAnLWa9zpX
「帝妲，」里多很認著的看向黃色大狗，「妳能準確的按下快門嗎？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUyfSFw6eZ
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNoPqxHGaj
這陣子觀察下來，帝妲靈活的程度遠超越里多對狗的理解，但基於禮貌、他還是問了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nJq9BNaNo
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmC0Cd18D5
「這我沒嘗試過。」帝妲想了一下，走到里多旁邊看著相機，快門的按鍵是依照人類手指的大小設計，她實在不確定自己能控制力道按下快門而不把相機扳倒，但她願意嘗試。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB66m9OHLS
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fMzmuIGrW
一人一狗討論起較佳的拍攝場景，最後決定選在日照充足的臥房，雖然途中也有考慮是否找鄰居來幫忙，礙於一屋子雜亂不方便見客、二來後續解釋很麻煩而放棄。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvXn5vrbRr
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUaoqdJZSd
里多搬過一張小矮凳，用幾本辭典加高好讓相機放穩，他熱得流出一身汗，一心只想趕緊把這見鬼的魔法師正裝換下。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AGbwKMYSF
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0rrleHpZi
「妳確定妳可以吧、帝妲？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq9wyebbcA
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPiccyHDnW
「即使我說不行也沒有其他選擇，還是你願意自拍？不想在協會出糗的話就快回去站好，想辦法把你的頭髮弄整齊比較重要。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxuVrtZ1oz
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZv3lYMBgz
里多早就放棄頭上的事，他拍拍衣服上的灰塵，實際上他沒有拍正式個人照的經驗。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9dC26hn57
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCo2L7NfXA
他很緊張。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eIosZ0qQj
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61nnWCZSxA
「笑一個吧，沒必要連拍照都如此正經，碧翠絲他們不會因此幫你加分的。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dRsLLiSiI
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgjwz5Z2ZX
「妳記得開機鍵在哪吧？等鏡頭自動對焦後直接按下快門。」沒心情開玩笑的里多一心只想著相機的事。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU91cKJaGlQ
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbjjlTOoIK
「應該…是這個吧。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVb1M7ZUsJ
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4itjgkU8bP
「妳開機了嗎？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fcmQ32QYK
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKji6VWFLV
「然後對焦……」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFW1wti7VGL
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFKirwGfLt
「我好像看到燈在閃，妳已經拍了嗎？有對好焦距嗎？妳－－」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhozzjvh63D
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BzqyRxSsJ
「里多‧阿爾馮斯！你干擾到我了！」帝妲狠瞪一眼不安分的小主人，快速確認畫面後她艱困的操作前掌按向快門鍵。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3HInevsgB
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJZMHZdUMt
「………咦？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQan5ZLqop
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FPUKRoiSI
「怎麼了怎麼了，有成功嗎？」很怕再被罵的里多盡量保持不動的發出疑問。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVK3lxMCvMs
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUQqqvljCH
「螢幕像你說的有閃一下，但怎麼還亮著？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiBNRkAVBf
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesWZysaVBD
「它還有電！」里多衝向前，就在帝妲以為他要確認成果的時候，里多按下相機電源。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTitclREwW
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRi0rG6HVk
「我剛就在想…假設我成功拍下照片，我又該怎麼把相片印出來。」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLuNtPf07o
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ACv9L1dlU
因為被相機沒電的緊張感過度刺激，完全忘記後續的步驟才是重點，帝妲張著水汪汪大眼，「把記憶卡寄過去？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVLJg8QEFs
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbWwTwwz0b
「不行！」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNtRhMRRSE
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7Gid8QNcN
「那你有更好的辦法嗎？」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2X6mCe5PBb
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXNHvWfZDh
「………」32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRbh6Y1dgK
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6aVJIoS4n
「沉默表示認同，就這麼決定了。」帝妲昂首搖尾的走離臥房，一大早完成重大任務後的她決定去吃早餐。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU44aRkokZ
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0hALWjO5f
被獨自留下的里多在床邊坐下，趁電源耗盡前飛快瀏覽記憶卡內那些關於過去的景象，最後他停在帝妲幫他拍的照片，螢幕裡的人跟之前的照片一比皮膚變黑，過去服貼柔順的黑髮被他剪短、髮尾還亂翹，此刻的里多還無法撐起法師正裝，過長的斗篷顯得他更為矮小。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnogTD6e89k
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDfYXnDCsK
螢幕第三次在他面前關上。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4slPaPcyFo
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5ft6XIOSo
里多經過幾次深呼吸，抽出相機裡的記憶卡，小心地跟信一起放進魔法協會的信封裡。他換下黑白色的衣服套回短袖短褲。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78TX8EeJLu
32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4aqL4leMj
如何回覆任務什麼的晚點再問帝妲，他餓了。32Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdARVslhWPD
