到了花園家門口時，鈴蘭已經累得睡著了。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJXSkhPKqQ
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KBAiHnFGs
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——320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLz7W4otcb
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCnpe09v11
一股味道撲進鼻尖。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DI2RI50pC
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PmV26t22q
是菸。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bgVeeu9zr
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Cc6UlxkRG
而且是那種，燃燒過的、仍帶著焦痕氣息的菸草味。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcerIZsj2BI
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFB2lsg3IhO
航一呼吸忽然一滯。是誰——誰碰了她？320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwix8UC3VnZ
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtrGQsEGtv
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？320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQ2nH177DU
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPGk2Dr7q8
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcunC2RWdee
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT9xaEfYbW
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPYMWUVM2i
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrvEDG2Fga
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ltE3iNEnq
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFE5G2aev1
——殘影街的風俗店。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiklcMEbF4R
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0qGBA9h8o
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqw3s8tBWG
那是他一輩子都不想再想起的地方。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuMVUXvOMk
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCEw51mCrY
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx75gorLovK
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivaGXd4BSS
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8m0nkNWqk
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUx58zq4Re0
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。
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqj9o9MM9A
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAO7V9rS9mC
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5f3arhq63
他需要確認。需要更多……「證據」。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88nYFKlKHs
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3PzC9ujG3
於是，他輕輕喚醒她。「大小姐，到家了。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMNqm3DNOO
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkXLbOp2BH
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……」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ap3qNpw6J
她搖搖晃晃地走進屋裡，回到房間。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCL3kTPy9N
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOaNh4pypT
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqBFJQcLVO
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhD0a8eZ8Wp
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoHUnOJwz3
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvjL3yCWA8
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmXiimCqIP
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHE7glykHoz
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3l6mGvsANv
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRi7XyE1j3b
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBIm366gCd
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwonzbwr9y
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8H03fQmiaZ
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJH7JgWtIy
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzThFGCg8v
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDFtjfEJ9E
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcZaQBWeEb
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZXNtwWEDV
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6rxtNecn8
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoS8xvzsoIG
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0qyqn2fRh
「大小姐，這次旅行……開心嗎？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaMiioJdAd
「嗯，開心呀。航一要不要看照片？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauVRw34wh3
「好呀，等一下讓我看看。」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IOINB6l6V
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RNjZOMfsE
他語氣平淡，但眼底沒有笑意。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsRdU4nwjn
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwqBq2AGmb
片刻沉默。然後他忽然開口，低沉、克制。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yIGsnEBXE
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXkWhPce2T
「大小姐，今天——有人抱過您嗎？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtBquXK8LM
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUO5kaiNh16
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR84HTIJz4f
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOniEO7XCAN
「欸、欸？抱、抱？也是啦，跟柚香她們呀……」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0rnXRRqSM
「是嗎？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2r5ziI8ZcW
「為、為什麼這麼問？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSYvWMNbqi
「柚香她們，有帶男朋友去嗎？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8TMhGVpF3
「沒、沒有呀！就只有我們四個女生！」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBx7DCJ76Ly
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtInRh2oAou
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmKaBB2jiY
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIlOCGte6m
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……320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIG69IQwDH
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdIgbHdyx3
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvfmg2wWSO
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbjU3rM6xH
不要再想了。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh06KW6gdmd
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWemPMew3F
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。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEsvdoywQ0
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7O9iPSjRF
「航一，等一下——」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7y14WqQQT
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTh9mCBbtT
他一怔。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqsZVt7pmk
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylHIHH8Ehb
下一秒，從背後傳來柔軟的觸感。鈴蘭抱住了他。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEy6FxANNi9
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OsexdhZ0I
還是——320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7YV7pqwNQ
一樣的溫度。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxl2Yy61uki
一樣的力道。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhx4mxcladi
一樣的熟悉。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINmw8ZCMoV
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVEs6YpOxi
今天卻讓他幾乎喘不過氣。320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAHtR67Mf9
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhhsnjS2k1
「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？」320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJX27CGKVYw
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDV0HdYmdDo
320Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRa9xErLBAW
