還是算了。217Please respect copyright.PENANAV2Hv9t0odC
217Please respect copyright.PENANAygJLkiEhyS
雖然貝吏刻唐認為前輩穿橙色裙會更吸引,但這是她的約會。217Please respect copyright.PENANAE9PZTxbNzZ
217Please respect copyright.PENANAJBRYtdOw3Z
「我要離前輩多遠?」貝吏刻唐望向書櫃。217Please respect copyright.PENANA8Fk32aWvTC
217Please respect copyright.PENANAFwuMPGvE8K
「在能清楚聽見我和荷芳說話的距離,但不要太近。」迪斯普整理跑到臉上的頭髮。217Please respect copyright.PENANA4li3KpHqNo
217Please respect copyright.PENANA00hb6LtZr9
「當你們吃飯時,我要一直站著嗎?」217Please respect copyright.PENANA1Bl6Vy2GDj
217Please respect copyright.PENANAw6Eb1tKq80
「貝吏刻唐弟弟有問題嗎?」217Please respect copyright.PENANAW0KtBFJ1gn
217Please respect copyright.PENANAjlJRNyQRn8
又好像是個愚笨的問題。217Please respect copyright.PENANArIoQzY3o0W
217Please respect copyright.PENANAzI20mTnqN8
隱形魔法本質並不是消除所有組成被施法對象的「物質」,而只是干擾「人」和「其他生物」的大腦,讓他們看不見被施法對象。217Please respect copyright.PENANAGPgxuX5eeN
217Please respect copyright.PENANAEXXVQNJ1iO
這裏有個令人好奇的疑問:閉路電視或監視器能看見隱形的人嗎?217Please respect copyright.PENANAAyJWHkMBNU
217Please respect copyright.PENANABGleznNZNc
答案相信顯而易見,但這個世界暫時還沒有這種高科技產物。217Please respect copyright.PENANA0iyuaJf5Qm
217Please respect copyright.PENANAgTsmA1NES1
真正該探討的是:這代表科學有機會戰勝魔法嗎?217Please respect copyright.PENANAkPlTNc87qI
217Please respect copyright.PENANA35YMR9pFxI
「沒有。」貝吏刻唐回頭看著迪斯普再度檢查儀容。217Please respect copyright.PENANAR4TVfHMkQw
217Please respect copyright.PENANAFiskMGTM1Q
「那麼我們是時候出發了。」217Please respect copyright.PENANAGzjCbg3wtB
217Please respect copyright.PENANAB5GEPPHe0k
「哈米殊卡・伊使份。」貝吏刻唐向自己施放隱形魔法。217Please respect copyright.PENANAgktttNMBpt
217Please respect copyright.PENANA7z0aEaZGsG
迪斯普握著門把:「貝吏刻唐弟弟,如果發現到不尋常的地方就踏三下地。」217Please respect copyright.PENANAwYduvMHBcK
217Please respect copyright.PENANAhjfffGgH3r
床邊發出一下清脆的碰撞聲,意思是「明白。」217Please respect copyright.PENANAsZvvepgdvK
217Please respect copyright.PENANAJZnrFgmkWz
隱形魔法雖然讓其他人感應不到自己,但萬一與其他物件、人或生物碰撞,其他人仍能察覺到。217Please respect copyright.PENANAOTkgRVNHbQ
217Please respect copyright.PENANAFWRBNE0Ifd
如先前所說,隱形魔法並沒有消除被施法對象的「物質」,所以其他人事物仍然可以和他們互動。217Please respect copyright.PENANAUeuGFCW0pp
217Please respect copyright.PENANAReEYwAA5Qh
假若隱形的人撞倒水桶,水桶自然會倒下。但若隱形的人拍手,其他人事物就不會聽見。217Please respect copyright.PENANASLVQTXSg3l
217Please respect copyright.PENANAjFOyZom9I2
要被感應,「互動」雙方必需是隱形的人與其他人事物,如果隱形的人和自己互動,其他人事物不會察覺。217Please respect copyright.PENANAHPLqzBBYmS
217Please respect copyright.PENANAxUsHrqszs8
換句話說,其他人事物依然可以聽見「腳步聲」。217Please respect copyright.PENANAb2RkuvvbMJ

迪斯普和貝吏刻唐穿過帝國的地下通道,到達小娜在圖書館的密室。217Please respect copyright.PENANAtewQN9vJiS
217Please respect copyright.PENANAiI5oTICHdw
嚴格來說,這些密室遠在沙卡美曾外祖父在位時已經建好,小娜的第二任前輩已經有使用。至於當時是如何確保無人入侵......過於殘酷而不詳述。217Please respect copyright.PENANA0k9ciaFsWK
217Please respect copyright.PENANA4faVo1EfqI
密室建於地下的圖書館員工休息室,擺設和在公主及女皇寢室旁的一式一樣。217Please respect copyright.PENANA6B7NFFZ0AD
217Please respect copyright.PENANACjYCoA4Z1r
名為員工休息室卻像一個有更衣室的餐廳,放了許多桌椅,牆壁、地板和天花都塗成閃亮亮的黃銅色。217Please respect copyright.PENANAyei0ESwzVv
217Please respect copyright.PENANALg4ntVsky0
迪斯普和荷芳約在圖書館前見面,當迪斯普從密室裏走出來時,一個正坐在密室入口旁邊休息的女員工嚇了一跳。217Please respect copyright.PENANAJuvvIvj4g6
217Please respect copyright.PENANAKo1CuezMpH
「原來是迪斯普小姐。」她看清楚來者樣貌便鬆了一口氣。217Please respect copyright.PENANAMmjk169uJC
217Please respect copyright.PENANAp6NV3EG4X1
迪斯普只是輕輕地道歉:「不好意思,嚇倒妳了。」注入魔力到牆上關閉入口後走出員工休息室。217Please respect copyright.PENANAbLaDnHFkXk
217Please respect copyright.PENANAbhkZC6bmOW
圖書館員工入職時都會被告知密室的存在,但不知道甚麼人會在裏面,只知道不時會有黃色頭髮的女性或男性從裏面出來。217Please respect copyright.PENANAVnUDsL0k9F
217Please respect copyright.PENANAm62EY0yIg6
他們出現的次數不少,所以入職一段時間的員工都會認識他們,只是毫不清楚他們的工作。217Please respect copyright.PENANAvIxxwScKQp
217Please respect copyright.PENANARfYiByVfup
由於首席研究員的身份是高度機密,帝國高層只描述他們為「學者」。217Please respect copyright.PENANATtYexDFQHh
217Please respect copyright.PENANAid5c2Nk0eX
可能有人認為只要混進帝國技術部門便能得知他們的身份,但首席研究員一般只負責研究禁物和最新技術,其他事都分派給軍方管理。217Please respect copyright.PENANAMiELIWmqvU
217Please respect copyright.PENANAJK1HpLc9h1
但只有極少數將官能接觸首席研究員,而且都被詳細調查過家族背景和社交關係,確保毫無可疑才可以參與選拔,然後還要被問話,最後才能見識首席研究員的真面目。217Please respect copyright.PENANADK9gqnCwfh
217Please respect copyright.PENANArH2JH89t5i
只有統治者及其配偶、兒女、最高級將官和被挑選的技術人員能接觸首席研究員,即使混進技術部門也有機會一輩子都不會被挑選,因為條件極其嚴格。217Please respect copyright.PENANASY505g4lFd
217Please respect copyright.PENANAbK8p63q7jh
除了與將官一樣要接受背景審查,還要任職一段長時間、對帝國有極大貢獻、首席研究員對自己有興趣、自帝國出生......他國臥底要弄清他們的身份可說是難如登天。217Please respect copyright.PENANAknNpohZY0c
217Please respect copyright.PENANACH9edv2WIZ
如果直接從外貌特徵和行為判斷,抓走首席研究員亦毫無用處。不過這是後話。217Please respect copyright.PENANANWgPG6JAtH
217Please respect copyright.PENANABbSw73ydU0
迪斯普和貝吏刻唐到圖書館外,一個矮小、戴著貝雷帽、穿著米藍色農夫服裝和褐色皮鞋的男性正觀察著街道。217Please respect copyright.PENANAlVHcK8WWrf
217Please respect copyright.PENANAPY71oBp8kl
「荷芳弟弟。」迪斯普在他身後給他一個驚喜。217Please respect copyright.PENANARPNlDykc6q
217Please respect copyright.PENANA0GRN07u5nk
「哇!」他差點真的跳起來,轉身後向迪斯普問好:「迪斯普小姐,午安。」他連忙鞠了兩個躬。217Please respect copyright.PENANA89srQCPJJk
217Please respect copyright.PENANAVq4KHgbfJ9
隱約可以看見他長了一頭米黃色短髮,眼睛則像晴空一樣藍,整體給人的感覺就像一個小男孩。217Please respect copyright.PENANAYGJtxdUbIs
217Please respect copyright.PENANANHENqIdDSX
「午安。」迪斯普笑著回應。217Please respect copyright.PENANA2VWYJp6ggN
