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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4zParUyqj
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡce1v9XvBG2
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAT0q9e5QZ
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs56WY13svT
「亞里，找到你了。」她說。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpilIMDLN89
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqjT0PLFzO
盡頭的人影瑟縮在影子裡，緊緊的抱住自己，像一顆頑石。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcju5jCm4sH
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3emwIMUVF
「友梨嗎？」她哽咽，｢為甚麼知道我在這兒……｣547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzRIZC5IgP
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zw0sUCBgV
「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。｣547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJOtKMhSqo
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0kpHSUFoF
「我不回去。」她說。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2e7XCBONO
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuIn0stNqB
「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。」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnG0i0OXPOe
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEOUPH9onV
友梨邊說邊輕步走近——547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUFuucvYeV
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4dO2P0hra
「不要過來！」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeyiLwIFhW
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQbGgsXCNi
友梨止住腳步，她未聽過亞里如此大聲。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDBzVxKLMP
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1qqQ60SJb
「我沒事，你先走吧，我待會就會回去。」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡai3qjpvB9F
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCeNwYZquz
『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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7SgOFW2W4
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHsV6MISQ8
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNIxsv4oDN
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYLHz4bnYt
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pSA3ln2t3
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMxOpYqdLZ
一塊染上液體的玻璃碎片。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrf5cuLSSpB
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFb5UA0ebyF
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTe3rxCrHMA
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHLII3gl2L
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTvLMny241
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiIOlcssGf
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94ByFKMIJ1
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18jXBq81D5
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Dg8T1TGOo
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsiKyLNwkZ
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWierB79LT
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBnFxYbbvl
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGP5oICSbUB
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jdOS2CPmH
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZR8IlbtMV6
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttJmJPyS5t
「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。｣547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoEnme16V6
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lAEPHrj4X
亞里想抽回手臂，但友梨不容許，兩手拉住她。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzgCSCy3r3l
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZW26560da
「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。」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYjUJSvd4k
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlPXq4CN1S
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7Wf3vL2mR
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jQ33DX8NP
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqILXIUQ53m
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtB8LC5kBCS
友梨撿起三角形的玻璃碎片，上面還滴著液體。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGklbvCPur

「當心，會割傷你的手。」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4Ieb8GEBc

「這正是我要做的。」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ87t2AtFkB
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZm9VESGe9Q
她把玻璃交到亞里手中。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyYUuThSvv
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrUf4mC8eo
「割我的手。」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcXS2igH0z
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzHkj9wmUD
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——｣547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4GYdjV87X
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY990oOhmjY
「會痛吧。」友梨說，｢割我的手會讓你感受到痛。｣547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wbnLranD8

「三刀而已，可以喔。」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrYIwiBjhN
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HWYGz3thX
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0doIxTaqtD
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZny0UoCza
玻璃滑過人工皮膚，劃上一道印痕。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70DQx7mIgb
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmTYHADUO7
「太淺了，下回再用力一點。」友梨說。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPAaX38u4D
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlaamWxEpq
「嗯。」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZLoMH2eYp
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDifPFbOkc
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19e5UQ1zUZ
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLiqHSEnSc
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKsDR1RN5g
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ40KJZosJS
「對不起……」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsV6aTKJmJ

「沒關係，下回小力一點。」547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7wJlWvQj5
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQ1Uw2FKBr
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6km29URPVb
547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5v9IoP7Zi
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。547Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGspROQZiIL
