到了花園家門口時，鈴蘭已經累得睡著了。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvAeZqmB6K
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPmOUlHsbh
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——227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbZDubArVY
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRj09m251uf
一股味道撲進鼻尖。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouTCeLOSAJ
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIYPABxheY
是菸。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytlZNOlmsL
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhq1wpKFgjf
而且是那種，燃燒過的、仍帶著焦痕氣息的菸草味。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡek4AoR9w4Q
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNIbVq1sGJ
航一呼吸忽然一滯。是誰——誰碰了她？227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jW0otzxKp
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeHjKO07yu
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？227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BJNthFJAA
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHCxbdYM1e
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJEyx77IWj
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTh4Df0NnS
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHPDwQk1du
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXlZGklwEy
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVjZdYvrqH
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTsI5E71Z8
——殘影街的風俗店。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlbd36Aooj
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwZDgPgQ5x
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOQgRh5f45
那是他一輩子都不想再想起的地方。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xFq2f7sof
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPCqQDjVXx
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBPIU17IUH
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hXAv0AOND
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBUvCwu8l0
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqjwHLE0Nz
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。
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsut3dWn4p
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSyNGG9U5e
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaiLH3b3cD
他需要確認。需要更多……「證據」。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wZqKCT36h
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduvOuMLMtE
於是，他輕輕喚醒她。「大小姐，到家了。」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcndUA44kA6
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7W8KvRQw5
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……」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTmNoFi5ag
她搖搖晃晃地走進屋裡，回到房間。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi37kk1Xy6F
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOfmDnmDG0
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFsLLqLEQz
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu8eEXJLRC
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXQtLWkm9z
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxhRFrtxwR
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdlgvDm2Rq
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOQrIgbQwz
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUbIXqLj54
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9e7aL2nXl
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrMpPhiQBJ
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyktpeqKn8m
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHfchunTBr
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBaPgFYlug
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQsMNs7yvz
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGW6AQnxWe3
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUx5NiLcBI
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXF8oX0Li4
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMymQd06yX
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVQYQX17AC
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYfrznq5KA
「大小姐，這次旅行……開心嗎？」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzszQkrld9
「嗯，開心呀。航一要不要看照片？」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18Wd5kdmqH
「好呀，等一下讓我看看。」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEyIzHWOCc
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvx6L0QEfPc
他語氣平淡，但眼底沒有笑意。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUOvoqZaTO
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacy2OCITqV
片刻沉默。然後他忽然開口，低沉、克制。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmG5ytPIsSy
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Xpgch7w6m
「大小姐，今天——有人抱過您嗎？」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVJWp6oZz0
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpOgqCMaus
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilwVU6yXFT
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrfkWZsA1j
「欸、欸？抱、抱？也是啦，跟柚香她們呀……」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlgMAf19wH
「是嗎？」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XRoanoZvs
「為、為什麼這麼問？」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZR5JNTxZos
「柚香她們，有帶男朋友去嗎？」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyutNfWOuNY
「沒、沒有呀！就只有我們四個女生！」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ct5BTTQJC
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1t33d57Co
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTE5fW4AYe1
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrP9uzVZ6lb
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……227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuG0sTL0af
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkqIpYrmzQ
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZdtDXsPfT
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOkRYK64xv
不要再想了。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hcFyUNVfT
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5wsv68uWd
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。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjv4AgMacxc
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef2anOPrk7
「航一，等一下——」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMMOr3bdLS
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdjRnOi026
他一怔。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm486Qv5Gaw
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVozRcrus1O
下一秒，從背後傳來柔軟的觸感。鈴蘭抱住了他。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEoIdijsrA
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCkWGl3wwL
還是——227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuhCvo3M6s
一樣的溫度。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wswiunJTo
一樣的力道。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOQYoQ86WZ
一樣的熟悉。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡch9YCuVl2P
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutwYO6y0AB
今天卻讓他幾乎喘不過氣。227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8iX7PfdI1
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD25OwNvZkv
「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？」227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvUaAtnaQT
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0OX2dVoYO
227Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOBwgZUSdG
