到了花園家門口時，鈴蘭已經累得睡著了。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGthRPD9Dj
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzH7jyiIma
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——327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQIwgA9ZRS
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjTx0KILGv
一股味道撲進鼻尖。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppGHXbeOq1
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yXeq6XK4i
是菸。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡws32Ird4m0
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZ1SXaNHxh
而且是那種，燃燒過的、仍帶著焦痕氣息的菸草味。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdLKOSyIzq
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHnJELCSuP
航一呼吸忽然一滯。是誰——誰碰了她？327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCsFZCSBsS
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Rh0S3soix
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？327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ag957uzyR
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ggb8tyM9p
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQwO4jSrrg
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPBDD1agZg
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7w27WmdPIm
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMzTJkzLNh
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDXSrllRv1
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oJeUUiCn2
——殘影街的風俗店。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZmRJv9oJ5
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH8LyULXbE
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OkrENg84H
那是他一輩子都不想再想起的地方。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySmD8JIp5c
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhh8gQMS1yA
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRSB3sGDfB
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68yFWhh5ce
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDc0PLvz1w
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuobziViGg
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。
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbNLpAfvDy
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBpG8Hp9FM
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQUDkaV27H
他需要確認。需要更多……「證據」。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreTZQ98Pfy
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfblGoUCIja
於是，他輕輕喚醒她。「大小姐，到家了。」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡep2NKydZuC
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBbHLpogth
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……」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9CUH3pnw9
她搖搖晃晃地走進屋裡，回到房間。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCZR2qqTdE
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqeEJjoCXZ
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ijDAN9Ndr
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7FDatXkbv
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUv851QigB
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9Nt8BbNLL
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10osvFOGY2
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyS0uDkegCs
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatVHqxZ0rQ
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcB0YQmSLc
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJyEzN8hdq
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZlU5VUTA2
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqMmPceP6D
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmX8ccisekc
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0DJy8P8as
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWBRdFzypT
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLksBCWvtiM
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90uYLZeBvK
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JEve2FA3E
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJVMFF99GI
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmPEjzS96r
「大小姐，這次旅行……開心嗎？」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaakb3Qq6a
「嗯，開心呀。航一要不要看照片？」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDhAAJG9Go
「好呀，等一下讓我看看。」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjp6vPmW2U9
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GulqQtV4G
他語氣平淡，但眼底沒有笑意。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3O97GleKe
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZVWC9h03Y
片刻沉默。然後他忽然開口，低沉、克制。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7bUq4DCtU
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtANFTrOmmn
「大小姐，今天——有人抱過您嗎？」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFmkVcD2Cr
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblsruxlwAt
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEf8kNYNrEY
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgUcRLEuHM
「欸、欸？抱、抱？也是啦，跟柚香她們呀……」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbFP65abTr
「是嗎？」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TtZ5h2b9A
「為、為什麼這麼問？」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsldt4Gf5Ek
「柚香她們，有帶男朋友去嗎？」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZYVT4p1ln
「沒、沒有呀！就只有我們四個女生！」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMiSuKoyOK
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmOCTFcBKt
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XxBSySF50
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFHgPkFOMT
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……327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBypAz63VnG
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GUo1YRBMS
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxOv6qaYFE
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBivss9EpMt
不要再想了。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyKqZ8PMte
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PSJk9hfa6
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。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjt0EurVIKN
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2hAf5Ti7y
「航一，等一下——」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUceLiuFAq
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNaZo0qWT7
他一怔。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdO9qvJAfKX
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK9j6YUmce
下一秒，從背後傳來柔軟的觸感。鈴蘭抱住了他。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIV0EZfdYd
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSMWg8BJ77
還是——327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDBcSxMYZF
一樣的溫度。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3j7rmKmxy5
一樣的力道。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0Bwm6nHpT
一樣的熟悉。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCB8WNhqSk1
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdQITTCp33
今天卻讓他幾乎喘不過氣。327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1ZSq8HDFe
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwlacmJKNG
「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？」327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstiJYIVxMF
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrZWzBiQhg
327Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXio7la2M5J
