第一代水果塔「書蟲」凱薩．克里斯托多羅普洛斯，花了他漫長人生的三天，終於把亂七八糟的屋子打掃乾淨。好久沒看到地板，他很訝異，原來他家地板是白色。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKIiyAJw2I
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qebxaIckF
「唉，這些怎麼辦啊……」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkdr7XbD1M
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vmyw2SlqN
雖然一塵不染，但凱薩的書太多，一疊一疊堆在客廳角落，沒地方放。他決定在死之前，以個人名義建立一座圖書館，把看完的書全部扔到那，死後還能供人瞻仰，一舉兩得。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGhzUuwcSO
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wOusgDdbQ
「來了。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUxG7XVEE2
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKrklVk4hT
聽到敲門聲，凱薩立刻開門，只見艾莉絲站在門外，旁邊牽著一名紅色短髮、六歲的小男孩，睜著大大的藍色眼睛，好奇地看著凱薩。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3BSOuR5HI
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1bTyapP5D
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoHVPuSzwe
「好久不見，凱。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQtr0PZJtp
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpo4AhRlYB
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdUXopQMxR
艾莉絲看著他。凱薩終於刮鬍子，亂糟糟的紫色頭髮也整理過，身上穿著乾淨的衣服，披了件黑色外套，和她記憶中一模一樣。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡil9DG5sFaO
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3oasQxBLv
「……。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbiAaIaUeN
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzHl0Ycmgo
久違聽到這個稱呼，凱薩內心百感交集，只有一個人會這麼叫他。他之所以打掃，原因很簡單──夏悠討厭髒亂。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIARatI50gW
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qlW1Q0b5p
「進來吧。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlARoGJVPda
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQhJKZzJNw
凱薩邀請兩人入內。艾莉絲提了一袋飲料，一杯是她的拿鐵，一杯是男孩喜歡的熱巧克力，另外一瓶是碳酸飲料，給凱薩的。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGZMbq9XpC
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8yqdt4GZF
「哇！姊姊妳看，這裡好多書喔！」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8aWfjDcXp
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jRYMe5Z3A
男孩一走到客廳，視線就被滿山滿谷的書吸引。看著在書堆前晃來晃去的小鬼，凱薩問艾莉絲：「哪來的？」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXmloAoj39
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AONIANcgE
「他叫夏木。」艾莉絲回答：「六年前，我們去救尼可拉斯和派翠克。這孩子的母親被紅鶴操控，死在機場。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDr1ZU2WLg
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktnQ906Nd2
凱薩有印象。他們離開機場前，艾莉絲發現嬰兒車的男孩，最後帶他離開。男孩和艾莉絲生活在卡洛爾大廈，現在是她的弟弟。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhcMUTB6N5
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OElW25t5U
「只是普通的孩子。」艾莉絲說：「欲雪和系兒都不知道，我藏得很好。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLXX5qkRso
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7d7u5yNCa
「欲雪？」凱薩微愣，「喔對，高宇維的本名，我差點忘了。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWob6gCyupZ
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmK8YfTuOwG
大人要講正事，艾莉絲問凱薩有沒有適合兒童的書，讓夏木在一旁打發時間。這毫無疑問是個難題，凱薩的書連大人都看不懂，哪來的兒童讀物？428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBDE8SYPV4
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBmAJUnc05
「彩色的，很多插圖。」艾莉絲給他方向。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAb1UI87mK
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3s2EIHLcD
「插圖……」凱薩四處找，從書堆抽出一本，「尼可小時候看的，這可以嗎？」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KVF3489KW
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9q8YuHo72
凱薩把書打開，裡面確實很多插圖，但那是醫學書，上面畫滿人體器官，還有彩色的解剖圖，看得夏木當場大哭，小小心靈受到劇烈衝擊。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLL8gP93Vyj
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIh7d7aQFVV
「我兒子看這長大……好痛！」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvHV5UNWto
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6n39D9nAc
凱薩被艾莉絲打頭，力道、位置、方式都跟一百年前一樣。凱薩沒辦法，只好回房間拿整套漫畫：《輝〇姬讓人想告白》，他年輕時最喜歡的。夏木乖乖在旁邊看，兩個大人講正事。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcIYxi3Ba3
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5h907O4UeT
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yOPKkLgn4
「所以，妳現在是誰？」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGEtWDPRe0
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtidN6qjkf1
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8QyHmnjlm
坐在沙發，凱薩看著對面的艾莉絲，「稱呼沒錯，拳頭也一樣，但妳給我的感覺和『夏悠』不一樣，光外表就差很多。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wsZq3olKU
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4K9eTXtZrd
確實，一百年前的夏悠是長髮，繫著紅色蝴蝶結，到死都穿著白色長袖襯衫，還有深紅色的短裙；現在的艾莉絲是短髮，俐落的黑色上衣和白色外套，合身的長褲配上短靴，還會戴耳環。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSePd2nHbAC
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVzrxnJWHL
「夏悠沒有耳洞。那傢伙看似面無表情，其實很有脾氣。」凱薩指著拿鐵，「還有，夏悠只喝調酒，無酒精的飲料她一概不碰，是個酒鬼。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3Q7cTitOJ
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17RHvSLawE
「……。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5uOh2mt7m
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijjYReCmsb
艾莉絲沒有回話。看表情，她好像鬆了口氣。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGwJhARQcE
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6Hl1NTCrP
「葛蕾絲告訴我：高宇維利用地震，已經讓夏悠『回來』。」凱薩挑眉，「以老朋友的角度，我覺得事實並非如此，對嗎？」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwnrTjoNLz
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgCNJvA9Kg
「一半對，一半不對。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHhNPE9z0N
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDp7itwGGVR
艾莉絲直視凱薩的眼睛，終於說話：428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLn4BDLEzEJ
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyd8FuDXEp
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6ivU2tDcJ
「經歷那場地震，屬於『夏悠』的情感回到我身上。我對你、系兒、欲雪，還有仲翔，那些感情正在我體內發酵，我不否認；但我不是她，我跟她不一樣──我明確知道這點。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uQEOXjDVP
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TYO2Xn7KI
「我不會變成夏悠的，絕對不會。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOMyZ8jrWU
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKB7sD8sAIR
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFauAhcZZQ
感情基礎沒有李仲翔、白絃深厚，凱薩對艾莉絲的影響有限。李仲翔被打死、白絃打死不見，凱薩不認為現階段，還有東西能將夏悠完全喚醒。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nayG4RMxB
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmg33WtpciM
當然，這只是他的推測，天知道高宇維還有什麼牌。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLCyQ2st0v
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaWBuFNHQT
「因為那孩子嗎？」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6e97I255M
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6ef1KTa6N
話雖如此，能將自己與夏悠切割，凱薩知道這不容易。他看向一旁看漫畫的男孩，表示：「夏悠很討厭小孩，何況住在一起。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpA0xiWICpT
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrNnj2bAuu
「是啊。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vwB8xs9Eq
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKPEkHH819
艾莉絲竟然笑了，她溫柔地看著夏木，男孩因為太專心，沒發現姊姊在看自己。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuMP9q8Gpw
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEJIdZk12s
「一開始覺得麻煩、難以理解，但他的存在時時提醒我：『夏悠』不是他的姐姐，我才是。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYowG6kZU4
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVP71r1zbpT
艾莉絲鞠躬，「系兒被抓，我必須去仙境，希望能爭取一些時間。凱，這孩子拜託你了。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyLupqfQqL
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDO0eLFPEmJ
「不要跟我鞠躬，我會折壽。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT076c5vIa5
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡahrUj46OYc
凱薩嘆氣，他也不能拒絕。幸好神與畜最近忙，葛蕾絲和尼可拉斯沒空回來，夏木不會被發現。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbIs8faui0
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1us2LhVE3M
「如果他不聽話，我可以揍小孩嗎？」凱薩突然問。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirq5l6Od9U
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZSkSK63pR
「他很懂事，不會有這問題。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNd2df6Oih
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ii27H4zGv
回答完，艾莉絲突然換話題：「凱。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7egJ467U4
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdquaKQ6vPq
「幹嘛？」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfTNAsrHOo
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYOiQr6xT9
「你覺得，」艾莉絲問：「我要叫什麼名字？」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkwXKJaDDM
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7L6QdiaSq
話題轉太快，凱薩被碳酸飲料嗆到，邊咳邊問：「啥？」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBskJskWGWL
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphvF2hPlWf
「『艾莉絲』是身分，『夏悠』是蝴蝶結的主人。」艾莉絲很認真，「我需要自己的名字，可是我想不到。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK5LB93F6t
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHRAIYPBHR
「……。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCmO6HGZ3B
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xUx3rMXsW
雖然飽讀詩書，但凱薩不認為自己有資格。他給艾莉絲建議：「等一切結束，讓小白給妳想吧。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerl4noqvqY
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqPvzAs9De
沒想到凱薩會這樣說，艾莉絲問：「為何？」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqYIZPK5t5
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOB5DN6pREA
「小白不見妳，因為她堅持妳不是夏悠，也不會變成夏悠。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTwqSWlSJQ
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqx2OQeJu0t
凱薩喝完飲料，將空罐子扔到遠遠的垃圾桶，完美的三分球。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDR3J7LuGPO
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47EGjE7PLm
「小白知道妳和夏悠的差異，一定能想到適合妳的名字。」凱薩說：「以前她總躲著妳，現在她哪也去不了，這是妳們見面的機會。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EbujkDcxV
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlq3sSKCu4r
「……。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWdbeosG5R
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiqqQpplZi
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljEjenzitu
系兒需要小悠。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9LlhFBbbC
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrO7ZXHRpL
羅琳娜需要艾莉絲。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeMD2DpU4Q
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZKBG8nGHJc
用艾莉絲的身分道歉、道謝，再以新的名字，重新認識白絃。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLs4utwV5ke
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6daq3eqwaK
──她想這麼做。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVS3cIJ3BUJ
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYNr0iSRa7
只有白絃，能為她的存在賦予意義。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsR8vIgAU6f
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9ymTXxyzI
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWbd66GFRR
「妳未來的自我認知會很混亂；假使情勢所逼，妳變成夏悠，務必再變回自己。這非常困難，我知道。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwHFLkGH7Q
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdP8MXorbe
凱薩彎腰，手肘撐在腿上。他把手放在臉前，手指呈現金字塔的形狀。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0YIuSA5i2
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXHtUqLAJH
「然而，有條底線妳必須死守；無論發生什麼，千萬不要做一件事。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFpihmFXMO
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNq9b2IQHrI
「……？」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6JufNMMpk
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXYOLSRI7A
凱薩的表情很嚴肅。不等艾莉絲問，他就閉上眼睛，用近乎懇求的聲音告誡，語重心長。428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLdHJOPPDg
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmt8uOceGa
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhC2Si84s1
「不可以和李仲翔共鳴。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiA4VDvTUy
428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBxL9Rd48B
「絕對，不可以。」428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZcJWwk3It
