到了花園家門口時，鈴蘭已經累得睡著了。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMOlV3f6ny
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe23JurYFXb
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——145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIW2OsVtiAS
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24IMIbpa5p
一股味道撲進鼻尖。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGPvirNZow
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXqcuYmJPj
是菸。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbygycZtqxm
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wlLyj8o0h
而且是那種，燃燒過的、仍帶著焦痕氣息的菸草味。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Wp7Yrd3zN
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXcROrW6G9
航一呼吸忽然一滯。是誰——誰碰了她？145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WeWmmRvcv
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRYAiLSYmv
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？145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4S2vGDpov5
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjvulcl2s7C
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2bzunFTbZ
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o3EZC6kUb
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRTyv60qDc
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFsUJyk3wi
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjcndIRJZB
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJ4U4MHpbn
——殘影街的風俗店。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFe7iRH2KO
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Zi6UmCL10
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPEPNNI1a1
那是他一輩子都不想再想起的地方。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIIY8oq3oo
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lwGl9WKSd
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhojIEuvLp
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MLLXQ7CZ1
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnb8uZ0NY1C
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrnvziNlgG
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。
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNljcWwnxz
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG3dqR5HvN
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLocp6JGbCm
他需要確認。需要更多……「證據」。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSxIVGx4Kc
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5PZ7BDvOK
於是，他輕輕喚醒她。「大小姐，到家了。」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5tjWmCe0j
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnCDuGPNLx
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……」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoZqThUszh
她搖搖晃晃地走進屋裡，回到房間。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUm1taA6q4R
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pyb21G13n
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNzaZc7A4R
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWUIkGgY7J
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnBtPM0vlk
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5aDro0haZ
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETZlkiNFF9
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xMAoGkO4v
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTi2dBGf8F
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpsiToW0k4
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZVZc3MAIq
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RcXcKqJmL
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWps1FWi3v
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGe9uQRlrb
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3jc6RJdPk
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqD3nCYfa4
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ILyqH9GRC
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTuYjnu2QcC
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl08kOGowNE
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjTXiJJwW3
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm6g9sDd3o
「大小姐，這次旅行……開心嗎？」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOyw3CkWvGI
「嗯，開心呀。航一要不要看照片？」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIFxuc7SZ7
「好呀，等一下讓我看看。」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qlOiTpJFP
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMysyPKE26u
他語氣平淡，但眼底沒有笑意。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrX25BYk9M
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTw0oYkPuy
片刻沉默。然後他忽然開口，低沉、克制。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oLKa116yG
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVIqEAkVos
「大小姐，今天——有人抱過您嗎？」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNdQeJkEP8
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToJt4FXdtB
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMsxcyaRDN
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerRKwwdJRy
「欸、欸？抱、抱？也是啦，跟柚香她們呀……」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk0rBsQYKe
「是嗎？」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1biDRMIYRr
「為、為什麼這麼問？」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRb314waJKW
「柚香她們，有帶男朋友去嗎？」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTZVhyfbLK
「沒、沒有呀！就只有我們四個女生！」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lUjUaNMXC
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnORvYfxncW
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzEoXyRsTX
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GtnH1m4rv
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……145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyaguzlI5P
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhCeqIm6PU
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxP8TL2Dnw
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0conSMbAPz
不要再想了。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeD3f2hCDQE
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGkgJuetzD
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。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡib4PbZ617i
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Xnf6OVxfp
「航一，等一下——」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcliCEcToJ5
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQwlJZnmPJ
他一怔。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEosYtZFbO
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iDBXiUcim
下一秒，從背後傳來柔軟的觸感。鈴蘭抱住了他。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R9cv4pWcM
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UY8K2tKvm
還是——145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpriSGqB4f
一樣的溫度。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmPC2NZkFl
一樣的力道。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrvwDkYi0P
一樣的熟悉。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjkbDIgCol
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Owp7RrG6a
今天卻讓他幾乎喘不過氣。145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rAbLbjQto
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZQR1ga3DH
「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？」145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYG4AN0igns
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXY3ZlqIuw
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqXMGdsrtV
