明明是才說過幾句話的前輩，但感覺卻又很熟悉，讓怕生的山下很快鬆懈了言語上的防線。這份來自每週一到週四下午五點的帶狀兒童節目的熟悉感，很容易被誤判為天生的契合──13歲未滿的他就是這麼誤判的，因此也並不懷疑，跟著自己回到新生寢室、旁觀他布置用具的生田君，其實僅是下午沒有更有趣的事情可做而已。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp1U5UmNKr

稀鬆的對話，如吉他調音前的試彈，有一搭沒一搭地。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdekhB6e8Mh

「山下是左撇子啊。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFOyfsslhB
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpREoXIr9V2
「嗯。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAEs9HuKJR
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJ7ypacmL0

「我對棒球還好而已。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdPRXYMlY5
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJNcJOa6lq
「其實我也是。這個學校的棒球風氣倒不錯，聽說是創辦人的愛好。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbTP82ZG4DK
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVXugG9yRn
「喔。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3XgzTXsJs

山下智久把英文字典放進空盪盪的書架，又退了兩步看，端詳新上牆的畫框似的。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5HMmRVLWE
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLqTV90K5k
改坐在書桌前的生田伸了個懶腰，好像歷經一番勞動的人是他。「大功告成了？」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZqMk10BcE
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZIwrktyoF
山下點頭。他的東西不多，「新家」的房間那樣大，總不能把雜物都帶來宿舍放，再說，有什麼忘了收拾的，打通電話回去，讓媽媽叫秘書送來就行了。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpZyMTPtAh
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR70XYoSuoZ
生田斗真趴在掛著新生外套的椅背上，伸出右手，對他搖搖食指。「你再檢查一遍，是不是少了什麼重要的東西？」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJxmpXBlC0
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1c9vX3HIs
山下看看他，顯然沒有想檢查的意思，聳了聳肩。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbC3uF2GFcu
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAHAfRt0oY
生田面無表情地眨了眨眼。他好像要生氣了，山下想。以前媽媽到了忍耐的極限的時候，也會那樣像機器人似地眨眼睛。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9i0FlK8Zu
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihFTxvqXR2
他就裝作四下察看的樣子，在房間裡轉了一圈，打開衣櫃，檢視過皮鞋和運動鞋，拿出裝有牙刷牙膏的漱口杯，又放回去，自覺已經完成了檢查工作。「沒有少什麼東西。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHL5NPnWNW6
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qpa6rHTvO
生田斗真嘆了口氣，又用他不曾在電視上看過的樣子說：「沒、有、檯、燈！」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdF429LiK6
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimfNRGGJCa
山下偏著頭看向書桌。「檯燈？」還沒有開學，他不懂桌上缺了盞檯燈有什麼要緊，反正一時還用不著呢。「上課前再請家裡送來就好了。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk05ruudPmX
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIymF7Ao701
「哼。」生田先從鼻子裡發出蔑視意味的發語詞，隨即又換上那副混合了討喜與狡黠的微笑。「晚上你就知道了。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSamomYIql
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8vl8a92Iw
「咦？」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LslyuYlZ4
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud81oy6YcO
「說到晚上啊，有些事還是先跟你說比較好。」化身為人的柴郡貓說，「樓下的舍監清水小姐九點半就會回去，初中宿舍樓沒有夜間舍監，只有住在高中宿舍樓崗亭的工友和夜班警衛在而已。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RlY7Ti9SP
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr29wplLVWH
山下還不明所以。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZICv5XjNa
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKOUqM3OWM
「可是，說也奇怪，大家都說，有時候晚上在新生住的二樓，可以聽到有人從上了鎖的一樓樓梯，一步、一步地走上來……」說到這裡，生田斗真尚且舉起手，反壓手掌，做出模仿幽靈的樣子。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaVBYgRkIL
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfWW1xgpOH
「那個腳步聲走上樓，會在每間寢室門口停住，好像在等誰起來上廁所一樣……麻煩的是，腳步聲有時候就這麼無聲無息地消失了，但你再打開門之前又不能確定，他是走了呢？還是繼續貼在門口等你？」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU2PZagwT0
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xPziGm5IV
發覺這是個鬼故事的時候，山下已經來不及捂上耳朵，鑽進棉被裡去。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwO5P6IKXT
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gxonfswZw
「我看這間寢室離樓梯口挺近的，嗯，從浴室、212號房過來，就是這裡了嘛！」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzQB6fvpdN
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGA3Dzp4fp
獨自搬進214號寢室的山下從喉嚨底部發出奇怪的聲音，然後用哭過了一樣的鼻音說：「別講了……拜託。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFHvXTpO1u
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNhkz1fh5m
「哈哈哈哈哈！只是前輩編來嚇人的故事而已嘛，我去年也聽過好幾次，這還不是最嚇人的。」生田似乎滿意了，站起來。「不如上樓來我房間玩吧！」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XFfd2glwI
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzHbW88l2v
話雖如此，當他們走上通往三樓的樓梯，暮色從樓梯間的圓形玻璃窗裡照進來，生田斗真忽然回過頭，背著光說：「但是，今年我還是選了離樓梯最遠的那間寢室。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72Yu4benA6
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWHYPexXe8
山下希望這傢伙別再提起會爬樓梯的幽靈。幸好，進入「頭等艙」之後，生田便慷慨地拿出漫畫和零食來招待他，氣氛隨即恢復了融洽。「偶爾不去學生餐廳吃晚餐也沒關係的。」生田斗真說著，打開汽水遞給他。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDzsAqfmuH

47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQ4uWAEvUu
「啊，山下，你該回去準備洗澡了，熱水就要關了。」洗完澡，回到寢室的二年級生如此宣布。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVnpQkeacr
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcysYfGv0B
「可是我還沒有看完……」山下智久從漫畫書裡抬起頭。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaHF91X2db
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2LlxJLKRl
「你可以儘管拿去，過幾天再還回來都行。快下去了，舍監回去之前會檢查大家是不是在寢室裡的。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqLNnr4FW2
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdH58uxeUB
他乖乖地抱著漫畫回去，洗澡，刷牙，準備就寢。可是，沒等來舍監女士，卻等來了──無預警降臨的黑暗。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODGcvCqK2w
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxalMcdPYA
「咦……」山下瞪著暗下來的陌生的空間，能看出，房門外的走廊是亮的。「不是吧……」他努力在床邊找到拖鞋踩進去，奪門而出。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9AsXexUNY
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8xu2i1GPs
然而，走廊上的燈，也啪地一下子全熄了。只有朝往樓梯的方向，避難指示燈發出青綠色的幽冥之光。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lBbl2a7Sa
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoaHxW8uFE
彷彿被黑暗追趕，他一口氣跑到三樓走廊的最末端。幸虧門沒鎖，打開門，生田斗真桌上的那盞檯燈開著，像燈塔一樣耀眼。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZu0527T3XZ
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUpHf9WBWh
「我……我今天晚上可以先睡在這裡嗎？」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9bsT88rJt
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVkwWIo8jm
面朝牆壁側臥的人，這時候才翻身坐起來，看著穿著灰藍色睡衣的山下智久，十分體貼地點頭。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOlfOdrip1
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOpMuH5SRD
可是……47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2otqgg7dDZ
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCnUMyTGl3
山下看著他對床。就像他今天搬進來的時候一樣，床位上只有光禿禿的床墊。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVU9bIzCEE
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hMdgs4SIM
「過來吧。」像招呼小狗那樣，生田拍了拍自己的床鋪。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6zB57eQbW
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8G4ASr7WN5
「可以嗎？」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9lUdSuM71
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHKTqLrduC
「沒關係的。」生田往裡面又讓了讓。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGZFy1qujw
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUc4ILFoeqc
山下躺進溫暖的被窩裡，被窩有種生田斗真的味道，很明確。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmkhMleMTR
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAyOBB6QV2
「現在無所謂。」睡在裡側的人說，「反正沒人在，舍監也不巡房。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4CmVy4Hvh
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAWN92wI09
山下智久猛地掀開他身上的棉被。「什麼？！」剛才是誰說舍監要點名，藉此趕他下樓的？47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CKLxZkqsI
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AqVucKFng
「噓！」生田的聲音笑嘻嘻的，連這聲「噓」都像帶著飛揚的音符。「別吵醒學長了。嚴格來說這是違反校規的，被發現的話……」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDY6UYaKU3
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1uF09SkSM
「什麼違反校規？」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0j6Ea7ZfO
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hAZrEhzpM
「跑到別人床鋪上睡覺啊。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBBxgtBaSk
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRulfraJte
「欸？！」雖然吃驚。比起違反校規，山下更不願意回到二樓寢室去。「這都要管？」說完，他忽然領悟過來。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4lrouS7wQ
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQezKnuHInt
畢竟是對這類話題敏感起來的年紀。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zxuaJnnhH
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8EtPkbp1G
「為了防止……」生田漏了關鍵詞沒說完，他們同時竊笑起來。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ECChAzK5T
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGO9b4ge7p
同性戀。難道真的會有嗎？47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uHFld9FX2
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJarQj45OYh
「聽說以前真有人被抓到過，因此退學的，高中部和這邊都有過。」前輩說。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1Zq58673X
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZreDmnIny
「什麼叫被抓到……」山下想了一下，「肯定不是像現在這樣吧……」躺在一張床上避難兼聊天。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJ7g6gGtTI
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEq1FhHMJk
「肯定不是嘛。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61abmvgHnf
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmTO5DH3Aq
山下智久想，生田君答得真果斷，但也許是在裝懂呢。其實可能跟他一樣一知半解。再繼續想下去，兩個人都像吃了過期變味的糖果般，露出怪表情來。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHXeHFBHTI
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2icjb1nwv
「欸，你喜歡什麼樣的女生？」生田斗真適時地問，盤旋在屋裡的空氣豁然開朗。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1axEnDFg5
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjWtxEaDI2
「漂亮的。」山下即答。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUTaL3mcGY
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8USRXEBPB
聽了答案的人從鼻子裡笑，感覺在嫌棄他幼稚。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqQWzbOxJs
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kELmc0KiA
山下智久一時想不出反擊的方法。「那……生田君呢？喜歡什麼樣的女生？」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXhYzhtUE3
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3UDuLFSr6
「秘密。」生田即答。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NFUC2NTX5
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbCc74va5A
什麼嘛。山下噘起嘴，「你不是喜歡咪嚕可嗎？」節目裡那個能馴服獨角獸的少女，穿著彩虹色的澎澎裙，手中揮舞能發出音樂的魔杖。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GPfGfUghC
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC15Dwan9fq
「哈哈哈。」生田乾笑。「才不喜歡，那種最討厭了。」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggwdLVFS6V
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnLBc8Hhtz
「該不會……啊，其實你是喜歡波啾君的吧？」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9ZSbodVGX
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRUN3N7h60
「胡說！波啾君是男生好不好──」察覺不對的時候，話已經脫口而出了。47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylJVnRgblo
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqc1KspuDqn
47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVKF3KaMs4
「噢……」山下趴在枕頭上，轉過頭看他。「原來如此……波啾啾星球的王子原來是男生啊！」47Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWMApUHHMG
