「妳考這什麼分數！？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbAzGsKemN
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LSpHWMlCM
一百年前，父親的書房內，十六歲的葛蕾絲．懷特（Grace White）像做錯事的犯人，站在拜占庭風格的米色地毯上，被人審問。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZkKt3bIQK
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenKgxrza6b
「其它就算了，為什麼連英文都不及格？妳是在洛杉磯長大的，不是台北！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaq8xP0otu
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjwmkqZFFx
她的父親，她那在學術界赫赫有名的父親──阿道夫．懷特（Adolph White），收到女兒成績單的當下，差點氣到中風，血壓估計和葛蕾絲的成績單一樣，都是紅字。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eYCShSFuB
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58ID2saxKd
「洛杉磯才不會用那些字。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbREYg9Krp
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4MBLHaYBl
葛蕾絲心想失算，自己每天守株待兔、打算攔截成績單，阿道夫卻私下聯絡學校，說成績單直接寄去他的研究室。果然，自己女兒在打什麼主意，父親都知道。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlMXldVZRM
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzhfjlEMU3
「30名……班上才33個人，還有兩個生病缺考！」阿道夫繼續罵：「妳哥哥三年的排名加總，都沒這個數字大！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylACKQ0CWh
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLBQI3TouO
聽到「哥哥」兩字，葛蕾絲理智斷裂。她不是乖乖挨罵的類型，葛蕾絲反問父親：「你為什麼只看那張紙？我拳擊比賽拿金牌，你也沒稱讚一句！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDLoCa8MXs
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6mUSDxZVP
「我沒有反對妳玩社團，但妳的身分是學生，不是職業選手。」阿道夫再罵：「妳不讀書，以後能幹什麼？當隻宅在家的阿米巴原型蟲、等著嫁人？妳也沒男朋友！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjSKfZ1NYx
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDXdmMTshG
真是夠了。葛蕾絲握拳，忍住揍人的衝動，回了句：「難怪媽會跟你離婚！」氣得走出書房，甩門離開。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbNExc83zs
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7UBhW7xGG
「讀書讀書讀書……除了拿我跟哥哥比較，那老頭還會幹什麼！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIMgJeacdg
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYz7rvI1A7z
回到自己房間，葛蕾絲從床底下拿出工具箱，拆開今天一早寄來的包裹。書桌上有她自己畫的設計圖，葛蕾絲只瞄一眼，便把設計圖扔到旁邊，將包裹裡的木材拿出來，開始組裝。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMrBHGkcPU
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡna2SBQwaSv
敲敲打打，一會兒用鐵鎚，一會兒用電鑽，還用鋸子慢慢割。葛蕾絲無師自通，年僅十六歲的她，廚藝、手作、木工、裁縫……什麼都會，儼然是個天才，就是不會讀書，也很討厭考試。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyietzX9R1
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanwRxTktdd
雖然父親是大學教授，但葛蕾絲不懂，課本寫的東西可以幹嘛？唸到高中，也不見哪一科的課本有寫「如何修電腦」、「如何煮一桌好菜」，一點也不實用。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ptTQMp2cx
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBr9HqEUDO
與其花錢，葛蕾絲寧可自己動手。因為沒有放獎盃的櫃子，她自己買材料、畫設計圖，不必擔心尺寸不合、需求不合，什麼都自己來。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWkK0qnYpc
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCihFpigYP
「叩叩。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfQ78FEtW6
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLCDn8YCaf
聽見敲門聲，葛蕾絲停下動作，走去開門。站在外面的人，有跟她一樣的銀白色頭髮，也有跟父親一樣的琉璃色眼睛。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGM8qwtxUX
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZZTVgAPVF
「幹嘛？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdSJqgtVlz
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4QljR1SGt
葛蕾絲的口氣沒有很好，也沒有很糟。她高中練拳擊，剪了一頭很短的頭髮，只比哥哥的頭髮長一點。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaGz7vooUC
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhfQ1EdBz4
「妳在做什麼？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OYJAd0qmN
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdubr2rB6Bs
里奧．懷特（Leo White）──她那剛滿十八歲的哥哥，雖然有一張好看的臉，卻總是沒表情，也不怎麼笑。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqivQ1Lai3
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrJq1wpcMM
「我房間缺一個櫃子。」葛蕾絲再問一次：「你幹嘛？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtMV4n1aIa
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7Q3fI2vOg
瞄了眼房裡的半成品，里奧告訴她：「聲音很大，我在念書。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡey9e6jQ8Oc
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpwjWn1vR0
想起剛才和父親的對話，葛蕾絲莫名火大。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7OsHgRoCC
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L9aLIj8bE
「你不是有耳機？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KPOb1VFEa
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLsDZ3Eq68
「……。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvv9l8AOqDa
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMieXd9t8Ap
「這些工具就是這樣，會發出聲音，很吵。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvDH3S6kUH
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqCGHAlnix
葛蕾絲臉上寫著「你想怎樣」四個字。里奧沒有多說，默默走回自己房間，戴耳機，開音樂。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKyHJIJD56
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtwVqR8zae
關起房門，葛蕾絲繼續忙。她拿著螺絲起子，一邊鎖螺絲一邊想哥哥的事。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZf0FV38KLg
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckm0WyHrga
他們真的很不一樣。葛蕾絲不會讀書，里奧很會；葛蕾絲很愛講話，里奧不愛；葛蕾絲喜歡熱鬧，里奧討厭。要不是頭髮顏色，沒人相信他們是兄妹。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqc0Ytfwqxu
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxlv1xu6FR
打從小，還住在洛杉磯時，他們就知道彼此性格南轅北轍，生活圈也不同。葛蕾絲記得：她常和一群男孩踢足球，那時候的里奧會提著小提琴盒，從球場旁走過去。就算對上眼，兄妹倆也不會打招呼。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiIY541JRp
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfczmpQDRji
他們關係沒有不好，無論葛蕾絲用什麼口氣說話，里奧都沒有反應，要吵也吵不起來。與其說兄妹，更像不熟的室友，各過各的日子。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wSbXlzOeu
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfZHeWlgMX

「店長，下班的卡我先打，這十五杯外送完，我就順路回家囉。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJ3zjRqkdI
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUH7nDsITbC
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOwemm3xje
基於對父親的報復，和在洛杉磯養成的個人主義，葛蕾絲高中畢業沒有升學。她做過很多工作，速食店、冰淇淋店、文具店、飲料店……原本都是打工，但她機靈、學習力強、反應快，不管在哪工作，兩個月後都會升職，變成組長或轉為正職。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFmAUOFVNx
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAjVrUgxsE
比起念書，工作快樂多了。雖然會遇到白目的客人，但不用考試、不用去學校，努力賺錢再開心花掉，葛蕾絲很喜歡這樣的生活。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUj1m6VDfu6
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Zzo7i4FB5
載著十五杯飲料、騎著自己買的摩托車，葛蕾絲發現這次外送的地點，是哥哥讀的大學。里奧在學校頗有名氣，因為他成績好、獎學金領不完，還有那張臉──葛蕾絲承認，她哥哥確實很帥。可惜啊，連朋友都沒有的人，當然也沒有女朋友。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZdb8QkHc3
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTk1YJZS9R
「久等了，你的十五杯飲料。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROZK7XCBTA
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUaBBGHSrU
抵達學校側門，幸好叫外送的不是里奧，是一個身高偏矮、骨架很小的男同學，五官很秀氣。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQAhY446N5
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbHAATpBFK
「謝謝。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyroUv61Cvq
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6S10iByS9J
確認東西沒問題，男同學沒有離開，反而盯著葛蕾絲的臉。她覺得奇怪，開口問：「怎麼了嗎？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcYbvccuuL
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6qBkufVYg
那位同學歪頭。他有一雙漂亮的、灰色的眼睛，卻始終半開，還有淡淡的黑眼圈，一副想睡的臉，感覺很慵懶。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1wsVPDyoE
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTS0IqIF7a
「妳是里奧的妹妹嗎？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzx2JPs4qY1
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLgZOBsjW6
葛蕾絲嚇一跳，但冷靜想，自己的髮色並不常見，聯想到里奧很正常。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQy6tnOHfqK
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIYrss7Cs5
「你認識我哥？」葛蕾絲沒有否認，反問對方。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwSUrzR26f
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFYQUl34HK
「嗯。」灰眼睛的人點頭，「他是我朋友。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBU4VwyXLDW
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumGbICtoyt
「他有朋友……！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXg9FDrdy3Z
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSyRjhl1g8
葛蕾絲不小心說出真心話。灰眼睛的人一聽，輕輕笑了兩聲，表示：「你們真的很不像。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpaggjjs1J
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSuvxLJF9L
「除了頭髮顏色，我們沒有一個地方像。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LFtdHKmG9
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Nu0J8pMXo
里奧的朋友，這種稀有亞種不能隨便錯過。葛蕾絲自我介紹：「我叫葛蕾絲，你呢？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnCiRusiJw
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdGlfdtYIo
「『高宇維』。」灰眼睛的人停頓一秒，又說一次：「妳可以叫我高宇維。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEOB5j91Ai
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOiuLeGbXR
猶如平行線的兄妹，竟然因為高宇維出現交點。高宇維邀請葛蕾絲：「交誼廳離這不遠，要不要陪我聊聊？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsASvDwDPs
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqOqCnmdf5
「你的飲料……」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaWmAkTqET
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOKUPR8yhU
「十五杯都是我的。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqM3LnPimJ5
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgrHMLiUmD
葛蕾絲一愣，「你一個人喝十五杯？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5Fp3ib7Up
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79SElbC1GA
高宇維不覺得奇怪，「走吧，我們去吹冷氣。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzuaSoVyJv
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yzRpQ9ggv
說完，高宇維帶葛蕾絲，來到擺著沙發，還有一整面落地窗的交誼廳。他們挑一張沙發坐下，高宇維拿出吸管開喝，也分一杯給葛蕾絲。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3omIdVcnJ
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMam5gE0jG
「謝啦。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPE6rCx9P3D
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9V9rVpgw1
葛蕾絲舒服地靠著沙發。剛下班，她確實需要放鬆，沙發冷氣飲料，簡直絕配。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTa5NMsYrC
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohvRY4wtTt
「里奧今天課很滿，應該沒空過來。」高宇維喝著紅茶說。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYJKk1iEu0
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sdrgVL2qF
「你們怎麼認識的？」葛蕾絲忍不住問。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztel0pbyT5
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiQTQqRhEb
「一堂無聊的通識課，和一份無聊的分組報告。」高宇維回想，「報告題目是……我忘了，好像和在地文化有關。我們去台中實地考察，莫名其妙就混熟了。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqt5qxQIANv
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNqWMN52CM
里奧跟人旅行的畫面……葛蕾絲好難想像。他哥哥左看右看，都不像有趣的旅伴。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAlYE0q9Ml
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxPR6iVvI6
「他很常提到妳。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCxzfcxjIs
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8DBn4adce
高宇維突然迸出一句。葛蕾絲滿頭問號，「啊？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmSLJuXKPJ
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaKjCtLCZ0
「我們在台中吃了很多甜食，蛋糕、蛋捲、蛋塔……之類的。」高宇維說：「每吃一種，他的回饋都是『我妹做的比較好吃』。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrynWHt4cv
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBFxV9A0nO
「……！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquQkGVIXAZ
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kFzEXlCCH
葛蕾絲睜大眼睛。不僅如此，高宇維還說：「看到健身房的專業教練，他也說『我妹比較厲害』、『我妹是全國冠軍』。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ035avypdRT
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJNPe3K6Zm
「……。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOGK5fuh4D
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sHi1floQZ
「去很多地方、遇到任何狀況，他的開頭都是那幾句。」高宇維細數：「『這個我妹做過』、『這個我妹很擅長』、『我妹做的比較好』、『我妹一定知道怎麼辦』……他覺得妳很厲害。某種層面上，他其實很依賴妳。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRccdrNdMxZ
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9vrcnaimU
「……。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNN3yaTtm6
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAzBTvzk4b
葛蕾絲驚訝到說不出話。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMwBZAhcs4
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5Zffn7Ork
他的哥哥──那個很少講話、面無表情、各方面都很優秀的哥哥，竟然覺得她很厲害。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY4zbhZF6S
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTIAc9igzJ
「我們幾乎不交談。」葛蕾絲感到愧疚，「『為什麼妳哥可以，妳就不行？』我爸的起手式都是這句。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NOHxIOCGY
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCAulD7V6p
「嗯，他知道。」高宇維正在喝第二杯，「他以為妳討厭他。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCG9smEQ5N
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk870GXsezD
「我沒有。」葛蕾絲澄清：「我們只是不熟，我也以為他瞧不起我。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHZXE4DnfD
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnExkd5ftJA
「沒這回事。」高宇維微笑，「他不擅長開話題。如果妳主動跟他說話，他會很高興。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyu7gVhN54
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdTIdLcsG1
葛蕾絲瞄了眼高宇維。這人雖然一臉沒睡飽，卻散發一股神秘的、古典的氣質。能跟里奧當朋友，果然不是凡人。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFZqRWlZ7K
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnLMYi6ERq
閒話家常後，葛蕾絲和高宇維道別，一個人騎著摩托車。父親不在家，里奧在學校，葛蕾絲幫自己做了頓晚餐；但不到九點，她又餓了，正思考要煮什麼來吃，大門開啟，里奧背著書包走進來，兩人對上視線。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsUwVXGTzG
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrHTZpmofe
「……。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivD24zkYJi
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX02S2HYOwd
里奧和平常一樣，很快就把視線移開。葛蕾絲主動問：「你有吃晚餐嗎？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTTUrKKnOc
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLq8kta9GDX
里奧微愣。他回頭，葛蕾絲把好不容易留長的頭髮紮起來，走向流理臺。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhPChnkg6o
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9C9lQKPum2
「我要煮宵夜。」葛蕾絲問：「你要吃嗎？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM31sCLgM5C
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGFKMIOZqS
「要。」里奧一秒回答，還點餐：「拉麵。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAYhOLsR08
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALagMsPFM6
「好啦好啦。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzPMtHSG2P
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc53mNYU5b4
葛蕾絲的動作很快，沒多久，兩碗足以登上美食雜誌的拉麵被端上桌。他們久違坐在一起吃飯，儘管里奧還是一號表情，但葛蕾絲感覺得出，他哥哥心情不錯。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZKI7z1coF
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ofCmepJnT
「我今天遇到你朋友。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJAhyoD4Jq
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAolSjXMSN
葛蕾絲負責開話題。里奧問她：「誰？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9hywCmuLJ
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwU6FFQ8lIC
「你不是只有一個朋友？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Rk8eKY3ps
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQjIC5IIym
葛蕾絲這話是無心的，但里奧聽了很受傷，澄清：「還有小提琴社的。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXxFB8EmR4
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtdMYKiNCZ
葛蕾絲笑了笑，「名字是高宇維，一個人叫了十五杯飲料。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCC3P5lPR1
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1K5HO3AtS
里奧翻白眼。葛蕾絲覺得好有趣，原來哥哥有這種表情。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOysl1LtMT
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3qwetFz0Z
「他每天都這樣。」里奧一臉無奈，「講也講不聽。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAcp7Gxfmw
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIlUomj8El
「每天！？」葛蕾絲驚呼：「不會得糖尿病嗎？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtaj0MZJml
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BTSQYhgRi
「……如果可以，他早就得了。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvcBuhy7Dm
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡer6KFFAS4Y
葛蕾絲正要問什麼意思，里奧突然說：「妳不覺得他很像巨嬰嗎？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfMb3rzWof
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCY8LBEnDP2
「巨嬰？？？」葛蕾絲滿頭問號。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMo7UdfMlgG
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijJBQI4Xcu
「我跟他去台中，如果沒抓好，他會被夜市的人潮沖走。」里奧細數高宇維的荒謬事跡：「解不開打結的耳機、找不到公車站牌、衣服裡外穿反、吃不出貢丸和魚丸的差別……他能活這麼大，簡直是奇蹟。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVl1xaSlk0
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s6ksNfS1u
「哈哈哈！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lgapb8Sb1
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0pn93uXnY
高宇維的奇葩行徑，加上里奧的口氣和表情，葛蕾絲忍不住大笑。能當里奧的朋友，高宇維果然不是凡人。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaybCzmitVZ
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCq065wIDdB
和里奧一起吃飯，葛蕾絲發現：拋開無意義的顧慮後，她能用一種自在的方式和哥哥相處。里奧沒有想像中冷淡，和葛蕾絲一起時很放鬆，因為妹妹什麼都會──確實，某種層面上，他很依賴葛蕾絲。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHaWkV5gbl
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6KzoqQvoD
「你最近有看到老爸嗎？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYtAPP8mY9
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKMu6BUsOD
餐後，里奧幫忙洗碗，葛蕾絲問起阿道夫的事。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpvNHJ5xnX
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcmtGPozJP
「沒有。」里奧表示：「他似乎很忙。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUJBKaeyFU
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJho0NAZWAA
「忙到不用回家？已經兩個禮拜了耶！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5dhWvjoTA
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBK3g0cQrTV
葛蕾絲一說，洗好碗的里奧微愣，反問葛蕾絲：「這麼久？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprn5oIBoSM
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXYYW33h5g
「我前陣子都晚班。打烊後，我去夜市晃三圈、買東西吃，再加上洗澡、吹頭髮、滑手機……每天三點睡覺，我也沒見他回來。」葛蕾絲說：「我以為他白天會回家，晚上才出門。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhzvYARK3z
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9Bw0if8JP
「不，我白天也沒看到他。」里奧說：「我以為他晚上回家，白天出門。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnIn4ANwEW
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhH1FXkwJwP
雖然稱不上感情好，但對方是父親，他們或多或少會擔心。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUyikYVQTV
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZwFALyxRI
「依他那種性子，在路上被學生蓋布袋，也不是不可能。」葛蕾絲說。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqkHjcZUjX
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbnhGJLTIq
「就算是，他也不會輸，爸可是跆拳道黑帶。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBN6lPaBMP0
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuck766hMo
他們試著聯絡，手機卻顯示通話失敗，訊息也都未讀。為了找線索，里奧和葛蕾絲來到父親的書房，葛蕾絲打開阿道夫的電腦，她不知道密碼，但思考三秒、輸入一串數字，竟然成功解鎖，里奧覺得不可思議。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEhwlQV1hh
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbn6OSGD47
「妳怎麼知道？」里奧問。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XBSOJ8nWe
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaJZubLy2J
「他這麼自戀，又懶得記這些東西，密碼一定是他考上哈佛那天，我太了解他了。」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwDXADLkhb
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPic1GlApMX
葛蕾絲點開阿道夫的信箱，收件匣很正常，但機靈的葛蕾絲點開「垃圾桶」，發現一封主旨奇怪的信件，寄件人寫著沒看過的名字：白絃。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI46gyVrLGR
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtymnup6cIO
「『奎茵博士（Dr. Quinn）的遺願』……這是什麼？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0cSnD8ciT
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLihs3tgbTb
兄妹倆互看一眼，隨後，葛蕾絲點開郵件。看完內容，里奧瞪大雙眼，難得露出緊張的表情，跟葛蕾絲說：「車借我，宇維有危險！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsD6wEl8y3U
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVEPma8BK8
「……！？」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3r5pBfXxx
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gqnzdfLKk
雖然看不懂信件內容，但里奧這麼慌張，葛蕾絲知道事情不簡單，起身表示：「我也要去！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNBCwohqsf
616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbboERTTNLD
「葛蕾絲，這不干……！」616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTlCNzGkDd

里奧只猶豫一秒，隨後，他示意葛蕾絲跟上。兩人衝向電梯、直奔停車場，忘記關掉阿道夫的電腦，螢幕停在郵件內容，上面寫著：616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJLtYdh7kl7

您好，我是奎茵博士的研究助理，我叫作白絃。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3QW6uBD2P
很遺憾，如主旨所述，奎茵博士已經去世。博士曾經交代：如果她來不及完成，希望您能接手她的水果塔實驗。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJDmqhMGsQ
然而，我根據博士留下的資料，已經獨自完成實驗，成功創造了「艾莉絲」。有關艾莉絲的後續研究，我獨自一人無法完成，希望能得到您的協助。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIn8othMQGv
另外，我無法掌握一些水果塔的動向。紅心傑克、睡鼠、書蟲、瘋帽、笑臉、黛娜、三月兔──如果您有以上七位水果塔的消息，再麻煩您告訴我，我會將他們帶回艾莉絲身邊。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecPbNzPtTl
附件是我的聯絡方式，期待收到您的回覆，謝謝。616Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqIXeLT9wM
