2157年11月25日，晚上十一點，大眾媒體E區（東北亞）530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyq46rQy5e
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08SFd7GFN5
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZEws4IFvY
和里奧出任務的最大好處──所有開銷都能報帳。里奧訂了間舒服的四人房，MIO正在浴室泡澡，李博洋吃著客房服務的宵夜，里奧則坐在落地窗旁的沙發看書。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukt8dn6nLK
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0C95Qtgu8v
相較於以前出任務、只能睡自己白色空間的李博洋，里奧就像歐洲人玩家，高宇維真的非常偏心，相對地，里奧也得承擔高宇維陰晴不定的個性。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup03uru7vZ
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrWRu5Y1d0
「那個，里奧大哥。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqX9iZlFAk
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvCZmAQ5BX
「……？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9thXZlVHT
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9YJs3aJZT
不過，現在的李博洋沒心思想那些。看時鐘的指針越來越晚，他的內心也越來越忐忑，「你身上有安眠藥嗎？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tkKYmeOM8
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeV0WDEHyK
里奧搖頭。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDysr4oE96
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlxfm2jZE5
「那，」李博洋請求：「麻煩你把我打暈。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewuCJw5xtA
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JnM7Rek4n
里奧疑惑，「你怎麼了？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMMGNQndZZ
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zOeLFHn1s
李博洋瞄了眼浴室，確認MIO不會那麼快出來，才開口：「打從清醒，我每個晚上都睡不好，不停做同樣的惡夢。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UVLzvjD2I
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3mwTwBPge
聽見關鍵字，里奧把書放下，「夢到李仲翔？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhZ5yvjmYe
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCL7WtLVba
「是，你怎麼知道？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTPPQTIRx8
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfgwplvfGw
里奧露出像在思考的表情。李博洋叫他：「里奧大哥？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSnaIx0qhz
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegDObTu7Cz
「在。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3232GByt8Y
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YMX4q2B2T
「想事情嗎？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4xrRj80wl
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMi9HoGi8z
「嗯。」里奧說：「我在思考怎麼和你解釋。」想了想，「獅鷲是特別的存在。挨了她一頓，潛藏在你們體內的水果塔記憶被喚醒，就像在你們的意識開一個洞，讓被保存在仙境的第一代進入你們的意識、與你們共鳴。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIdBfcSMkv
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LyrS0GJK6
「但是，」李博洋問：「每個人的共鳴過程似乎不一樣，產生的結果也不一樣。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzMdKzpNq0
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87Cey285g2
「看水果塔的執念多深。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRK5P3DAG5
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wrYL4UbDw
「什麼意思？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xBCxIpZBw
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgmmAtHDgN
「以派翠克為例，他的祖母──『公爵夫人』薇奧拉．雷蒙，死時無牽無掛，派翠克的共鳴過程很順利。」里奧說：「相反，尼可的叔叔──『三月兔』尤里烏斯．史密斯，是典型的麻煩人物。他對艾莉絲體系的恨意，死後變成執念，原本打算取代尼可的意識、搶走他的身體。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjV1JrInMv
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEFH7KXBhX
里奧聳肩，「不過，兩人似乎達成共識，三月兔最後沒有這麼做，演變成這樣的共生關係，結局也不壞。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTC9xPGGP5
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVHiNFcVvC
「其他人呢？」李博洋再問。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRZaCl0Uyf
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXymicriKG
「葛蕾絲的水果塔，是從『書蟲』凱薩．克里斯托多羅普洛斯轉移過去的，和你們的狀況不一樣，暫不列入討論。」里奧列舉：「謝綠和江云格還在觀察，目前都沒有共鳴的跡象；MIO記憶混亂，和『假海龜』NAGI的共鳴才會受阻；赫密士是最高機密，沒有宇維允許，我無可奉告。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Q9yPGLAh0
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hQC9mF6yt
最高機密？李博洋記得很多年前、問赫密士的性別時，里奧也這樣回覆。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkLW4pUEQ4
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93Wtb6Tvh7
但他沒有閒暇探討赫密士。李博洋結論：「如果是執念很強的水果塔，又沒有尼可幸運，我們的意識就會被殺死，被第一代水果塔反客為主？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yl8JiDxeb
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxrkxnCfVU
里奧點頭。李博洋的臉色瞬間慘白。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rtHVxExK0
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DPUvDN70u
「『紅心傑克』李仲翔是這樣嗎？」里奧看出他的驚恐和不安，直接問。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaUgrNS829
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwIqy66RsM
「……嗯。」李博洋低頭，「夢裡的爺爺他，全身都是黑色的泥和紅色的血，嘴裡念著可怕的話、朝我逼近……每次作夢，都覺得他離我越來越近。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PQLgVOZwc
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMTbQIvfee
里奧沒有回話，又露出像在思考的表情，這次李博洋沒有發現。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3gBx6QWbm
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWhvHWPEgY
「里奧大哥，我……」李博洋問：「我會，就這樣死掉嗎？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2bbuzxDcW
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKocklXQc7
里奧不講好聽話，實話實說：「有可能。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhMX1xdyF3
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0ZRJaESWX
「有辦法阻止爺爺嗎？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYo1hf9gwm
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvf8KJ7yOY
里奧不知道。他自己也在和「紅國王」拉扯，處於劣勢。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsWHixhKln
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0kwit8Ev4
「……我明白了。」李博洋再問里奧：「弟弟也會嗎？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e5wrMC6sZ
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYchfNleYcl
「不確定。」里奧說：「我不知道李仲翔會怎麼做。他的執念太強，可能到你就打住，也可能覺得一個不夠、也對晴煬出手。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaC8CPFY9QS
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5irj7esCO
「如果是那樣，」李博洋拜託：「里奧大哥，一定要請宇維少爺阻止爺爺。我沒有關係，一定要救弟弟。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6abmSF9FFq
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ldZUAPbRI
里奧點頭，沒有給口頭承諾。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNftJcykFe
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJNOeAJH70
說煩惱，其實他更煩；說憂鬱，他非常難受；說壓力，他快瘋了。李博洋有MIO，里奧有誰？雪檸、紅鶴、高宇維……昔日的人都離他而去，他只能把情緒往心裡吞。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLPHDrVgVr
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz838dtOych
「奇怪，MIO怎麼還沒出來？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvsvomK9Wb
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddwiLvoKvW
結束話題、看看時間，李博洋發現MIO已經洗了兩個小時，泡澡也不會這麼長時間。李博洋敲了敲浴室門，「MIO？妳洗好了嗎？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡob7oJVnLSg
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrzHYjIXL7
「……。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wIu9ROMjw
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93Y05gBMaF
「MIO？MIO？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmsdH6BXCo
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDxNeoAfYk
「……。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEDfWpYhea
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKS8fKlmY9r
MIO是出了名的不怕燙，洗澡水能把人煮熟。里奧第一時間反應：「熱暈了？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tVv2Zvyct
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNePfINs0p
「有可能。」李博洋再敲門，「MIO，我進去囉。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQj3fWY7lj
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZWT3itW4x
這間飯店的浴室門沒有鎖，而是不透光玻璃、推一下就能打開。正當李博洋準備推門時，裡頭的MIO突然大叫：530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3Fb9zcykg
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepM3IXMYT7
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopgeaW5skI
「不要啊啊啊啊啊啊啊！！！！！！」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SwcF2WjG8
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qqYgvyC9t
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOYVbyKXv8
兩人嚇一大跳。李博洋趕緊推門，發現裹著浴巾的MIO瑟縮在角落、全身發抖。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRldBEvHMY
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfr628jJ2L
「MIO！」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP51cBp4TD6
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngZcyCeUNz
李博洋衝上前、將人抱在懷中，發現MIO不只戰慄得厲害，體溫也非常低，不像剛洗完澡的人。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwzXKQ04Bn
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lJwArqfP7
「不要……不要……媽媽……！」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjHnTE0FcZ
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CT06jKqGS
「MIO！是我，我是博洋！」李博洋知道她又陷入回憶，「妳不是MIA，是MIO！是李博洋的MIO！」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvvqOjwIsd
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1FmrowGVd
「不要……不要啊啊啊啊啊……！」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVwHs04JF7
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWuNN3zlwY
黑色的眼睛沒有聚焦，MIO仍然哭個不停。李博洋心急如焚，以往只要抱著MIO、呼喚她的名字，MIO就沒事了，怎麼這次就沒效呢？530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgOb7DQDe8
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMI2jIywLY
看著MIO剛才瑟縮的角落，再看看浴室的門，里奧似乎明白發生什麼，開口問：「NAGI死了？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOeR28s6NX
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnFn9LjPkP
李博洋回頭，「什麼？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWu27hIrO4
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLR1pLIvZg
「NAGI死了嗎？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcspNbivc5
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hhW1v2dZe
里奧不是在跟李博洋說話，而是他懷裡的人。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mxS9Edagn
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAq32paJMKW
「……死掉了。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISiJmbI1FY
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkRN6PW8I1
MIO用哽咽的聲音回答。里奧再問：「怎麼死的？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJGwc2Qk3W
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlSgWstWPL
「李仲翔……」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFudKCBBRJ
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX6pqNitih
MIO抬頭，黑色的眼睛除了淚水，還有傾瀉而出的恨意。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1euF7Lbes
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaocks0XVU
「獅鷲也在，但下手的是……李仲翔……！」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4SYhLobGM
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFISAy02Sq6
「MIA呢？」里奧問：「MIA在哪？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8u9KYaIkh
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0ewnOYcHN
「媽媽知道自己打不贏，把MIA關在浴室……卑鄙的李仲翔鎖定浴室，想先殺掉MIA。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUEs3bCS9m
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5tRKnyeNJ
MIO不發抖了，還是在哭。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8wiChffkL
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYT2BczEdj
「媽媽擋在門前……血從門縫滲進來。每響起一聲鈴鐺，媽媽的血就滲得更多，整個浴室都是媽媽的血，然後……！」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFEkOxfw4x
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lGPgzqLYF
然後沒了，記憶結束。不是忘記，不是失憶。NAGI死後，她的下一段記憶，就是「MIO」和李博洋相遇。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaZKalH471
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8v6wDQokz3
「鈴鐺是李仲翔皮帶上的吊飾。」里奧嘆氣，「怪不得，晴煬說MIO的聲音是『鈴鐺』。對妳而言，鈴鐺象徵NAGI的死。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcafQyEYuL
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TngZendhK
儘管記憶混亂，李晴煬依舊聽見MIO心中的恐懼，也是他厲害的地方。要不是李晴煬昏迷，靠他的解心術，這次任務會輕鬆很多。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGOZ9DjK7b
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkEbHts05k
浴室不是說話的地方。里奧先離開，李博洋幫MIO穿好衣服、帶人到沙發上坐下，三人繼續討論。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUf3WsxCi6
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsWhM5hEzU
「但是，」李博洋想到：「假海龜一死，MIA不是被抓回艾莉絲體系，就是被當場殺死……」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23uhc4tLbn
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aao9pzOjF
里奧搖頭，「都沒有，當年假海龜死後，她的女兒就失蹤了。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjDf1k2ksd
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZP3Zv37cq
「這很奇怪。」李博洋點出關鍵：「她被關在浴室，能跑去哪？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI5buIG6dna
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtk10c9JPfA
「也是大家不明白的地方。」里奧說：「當年李仲翔向夏悠保證：浴室空無一人，也沒有窗戶，MIA就這麼憑空消失。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcQp4nbTH8
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Dpm4lzQDh
李仲翔皺眉，「退一萬步：假設MIA用某種方法逃走，這一百年來，宇維少爺沒試著找她嗎？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3816jZ081
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOwmF5y6l2
「試了，找不到。」里奧回答：「連我們都找不到的人，當年卻被剛成為神與畜的你帶回來，我和宇維至今都不能理解這件事。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYj1w5rYrC
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8MQ87i2Na
說實在，和MIO相遇的那天並不特別──李博洋去某間寺廟參拜時，發現有個穿和服的小孩在哭，說自己沒有名字、找不到回家的路。因為旁邊有條水渠，李博洋給她取名「澪（MIO）」。高宇維差點嚇死，說MIO和某個小孩一模一樣，必須讓她成為神與畜……530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwk5FC7wv4p
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0n2hDecQ5j
無論如何，他和MIO認識的那天非常普通，唯獨沒有名字這件事不尋常，後來大家知道──MIO記憶混亂，想不起以前的事。問題又回到原點：她到底為什麼失憶？530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhHtui58W0
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrqWwWXLAw
「我要……見獅鷲。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyuSTKLub7
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacJ3JXQAGh
一直沉默的MIO突然說：「媽媽死時，獅鷲是除了李仲翔外、第二個在現場的人，她一定知道些什麼。就算沒有，我要她連同李仲翔的份付出代價。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZx6eRlYEv
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pyb8tcwFM
這趟E區之行不是沒收穫，至少MIO想起最重要的細節──NAGI的死。既然白絃人在現場，找她詢問當年MIA的去向，是最可行的辦法。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwBL5T2ygo
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJa9V5NnJxJ
「獅鷲人在哪？她的行蹤很難掌握。」李博洋說。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiqXKPCbH0
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZzp1nba3K
「她在A區。」里奧秒答：「她昨天去了墓園，在十一塔。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrazXS9zNZ
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJg467L1Yn
十一塔。聽到那個地方，李博洋的內心「吭鐺」一聲。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqLEhfPUn7
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhiLjzITFo
「勢必得拜訪李門了。」里奧看他，「博洋，你行嗎？」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEScNaWJGhd
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6UpiTLThy
「當然……這是任務，沒有不行這種事。」530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36Yymi0452
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohymFARqFQ
李博洋逞強笑著。MIO看著他，黑色的瞳孔滿是擔心。530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ977jl4O4vi
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QJ0rY8meo
雖然恢復記憶很重要，但李博洋的狀況讓MIO無法放心。她早就察覺，有什麼黑色的、暴力的、絕望的東西正在吞噬他，而且，那個東西會讓她失去李博洋，明明不能讓這種事情發生──530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelhVjT8nKn
530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHrYncsOlD
里奧卻沒當一回事。
