到了花園家門口時，鈴蘭已經累得睡著了。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfJAIbXXkL
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbZMBmHj6o
車裡一片安靜，只剩微弱的引擎聲與她平穩的呼吸。航一轉頭看著她的睡顏，眼神不自覺地溫柔下來。她的睫毛靜靜垂著，髮絲散落在肩頭，隨著呼吸微微起伏。他輕輕一笑，解開安全帶，下車繞到副駕一側。正準備俯身替她解開安全帶、順勢將她抱下車時——321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjzrrCHg2r
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlUFlpb6in
一股味道撲進鼻尖。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FRMVHSSTo
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDc8hIx1j2
是菸。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpophhsGc0
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5hKkAdR3Z
而且是那種，燃燒過的、仍帶著焦痕氣息的菸草味。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0fiRmeWnj
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yGAxCDnAK
航一呼吸忽然一滯。是誰——誰碰了她？321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9Mk8zifd5
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOwjeRYlL2
航一的動作在空中頓了一下。那味道熟悉得讓人無法忽略。他清楚，鈴蘭的那幾位朋友裡，沒有一個吸菸的。那麼……這味道，是從哪裡來的？321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ899kzUd4k5
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDD90N31hJX
他低下頭，視線落在她微微散亂的髮尾與衣袖上。淡淡的、卻明確的，是從她身上散出來的。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AvmU1cyRn
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xQt3NfHFg
航一的指尖微微一緊。他跟在大小姐身邊那麼多年，從未、一次都沒有在她身上聞過菸味。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFW8sUsCgM
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1C7Hi9reqS
花園家的宅邸早已全面禁菸，除了老爺偶爾在書房裡抽雪茄，那是溫潤厚重的檀木香，與這種刺鼻、帶焦的味道完全不同。這味道瞬間把航一拉回了某個記憶的深處。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAesisAyON6
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrYAGjRNLY
——殘影街的風俗店。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWt21oIunf
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOT4lNopEH1
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06HcDw88VN
那是他一輩子都不想再想起的地方。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTbKZ7iTS1
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQtd01Rzek
航一幾乎不敢相信自己的嗅覺，卻又一次次確認。他俯下身，靠近她的髮梢、外套的領口，那股味道確實存在。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYylICQGMu
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUn3IcVVjD
不只是菸草。還有一種男性古龍水的味道，帶著金屬般的冷香與夜風氣息。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarBNlJVDS6
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdf0eiP9YU
航一的喉嚨微微收緊，心跳卻莫名加快。那一刻，他第一次覺得，這股氣味，比任何謎團都更讓人窒息。
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCp38iwD8ky
沒有照原本的習慣將她抱回房間。他站在車邊，靜靜地看了她一會兒，那股味道仍縈繞在鼻尖，揮之不去。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriCgO0msxH
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYX3WAV2Y8
他需要確認。需要更多……「證據」。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3FeVsfab3
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfoVkiFai0
於是，他輕輕喚醒她。「大小姐，到家了。」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAS8iPIV0tM
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfkQjNpOU9
鈴蘭半夢半醒地睜開眼，睡眼惺忪地點了點頭，「嗯……謝謝你，航一……」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstMG81WQTk
她搖搖晃晃地走進屋裡，回到房間。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOxRhy6gxe
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrws6sqjGlJ
不久後，傳來浴室水聲。她正在洗去旅途的疲憊，卻不知身後有人仍停在門外，神情陰鬱。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx644VsgsS8
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8khdhtMnHh
航一拿起她方才換下的上衣。指尖觸到那布料，他幾乎立刻感覺到那股味道——殘留、明顯、無法否認。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTTf7wStDF
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdAOj68kFJ
他仔細地看、又一次聞。從衣袖到衣領，從肩線到發梢輕觸的地方，他不是在懷疑她，而是在壓抑自己的動搖。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JOcTTRh1M
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyPaQtFpbC
航一的眉心微微一緊。那味道並非只是待過某個有吸菸者的地方，它太近、太深、太明顯。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbZ2lnytBl
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpMx0YLkRT
那不是「經過」，而是「被抱過」。味道附在她的肩線與衣領，像是被誰留下一瞬的殘影。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxxZ94FPGx
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqUmq5RMsb
航一胸口微微發緊。這不是理性判斷，而是一種直覺。太熟悉她的氣味，也太清楚這股異味屬於他人。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3JAjKrgmg
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhfiuJZSsn
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV99Msv0Tqt
鈴蘭洗完澡後，整個人明顯精神多了。航一替她吹乾頭髮，她則打開手機，翻看旅途中拍的照片。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoxtVhjJe2
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6vsp5ax07
當然，她不可能留下任何有楓或其他男生的合照。她滑著螢幕，笑得天真無防備；而在她背後，航一的目光也靜靜落在那閃爍的畫面上，一張一張，他沒有說話，只是觀察。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyDbcLJ2vC
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3ugijp0pb
熱風機的聲音停止。航一拔下插頭，收起電線，動作一如往常般沉穩。他拿起梳子，為她整理微濕的髮絲。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDWwSXPrAQ
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtaKyefs5G
「大小姐，這次旅行……開心嗎？」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnNRXzKgV8
「嗯，開心呀。航一要不要看照片？」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIjs6Deaj8
「好呀，等一下讓我看看。」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLErYhdJ6pA
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqMV9vl2U9
他語氣平淡，但眼底沒有笑意。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2x8onVwbo
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfwRt4aCbY
片刻沉默。然後他忽然開口，低沉、克制。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrfUDGCbe0
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CU5lKglDx
「大小姐，今天——有人抱過您嗎？」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIZEBGHspH
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCOfMfOj7A
鈴蘭的指尖一僵。滑動的手停在半空，螢幕光映出她錯愕的表情。腦中一瞬間空白。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SCcPkp5Pe
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboB3VyJxkm
「欸、欸？抱、抱？也是啦，跟柚香她們呀……」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoR7u6GsR6
「是嗎？」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMwFqwiAUU
「為、為什麼這麼問？」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvJEh5i4Du
「柚香她們，有帶男朋友去嗎？」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mFl2OrvC6
「沒、沒有呀！就只有我們四個女生！」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3VzcYmKIB
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwQWgvW2xQ
鈴蘭的腦袋瘋狂運轉，卻仍想不出自己哪裡露了餡。空氣忽然變得太安靜、太冷，連那一縷濕髮滑過肩頭的觸感，都讓她全身繃緊。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEYx0pQ9NJ
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qkATh4mrc
航一確實有看到，她和柚香她們在照片裡擁抱。難道那股味道，是從別人轉染過來的？柚香愛玩，若她抱過誰，又再摟了鈴蘭……321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXxhdp0tYk
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2GPEDuqA0
他眉頭深鎖，收好梳子，轉過身，腳步往門口移去，心裡卻亂得像被撕開。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvc79mrXOD
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfPlhkSIiT
不要再想了。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe24Is0UwKI
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcvNXq0MMw
他在心裡一遍又一遍地告訴自己。可那股味道太明顯，像一道無形的刺，牢牢卡在腦海裡，讓他無法假裝什麼都沒聞見。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnglqADnDRo
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSs8hLplaNZ
「航一，等一下——」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuSNa7hEED
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdY9HzaQIed
他一怔。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYa2UfC8qXX
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqzT4XnZCP
下一秒，從背後傳來柔軟的觸感。鈴蘭抱住了他。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKT0HhVa9va
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNzln2x0Vb
還是——321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3TnlgIA7u
一樣的溫度。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciYF6pRI45
一樣的力道。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CNyA4y9vT
一樣的熟悉。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM6XXmWM5n
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPR7d6HVJWs
今天卻讓他幾乎喘不過氣。321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55P6VjRPrk
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uNsli3wZQ
「我……很想你。」她的聲音貼在他背後，充滿甜膩，「今晚，可以留下來陪我嗎？」321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnte2K2qtUd
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNN4WhyR2d
321Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MxEdOWMA2
