這日天氣仍沒有好轉,還是陰雨綿綿,三人走在往教室的走廊,伯特與木每走在前方,而小夏提著伯特的書包。545Please respect copyright.PENANAsJdUJkufF3
545Please respect copyright.PENANAGnNbngZwSg
先前雖有交換的條件,只是兩人的生活一向習慣自己處理,小夏能做的真的是太少了,因此今早,她突然提出要幫忙提書包,原先木每的書包也是小夏說要拿著的,但兩個書包對於少女而言是重了些,而木每還是習慣於自己背著,就沒有讓她幫忙了。545Please respect copyright.PENANAixfKDtuPp5
545Please respect copyright.PENANAaEBqeE6F5s
到了教室門前,小夏將書包遞給伯特,動作顯的謹慎小心,並非畏懼著什麼,似乎她一直就是這樣。看著在座位坐定的兩人,在送兩人進教室後能做的工作也告了一段落。545Please respect copyright.PENANAuntcgpVFM3
545Please respect copyright.PENANA3BOWs7qgLV
若要說小夏的一天的行程,那大概是這樣的:545Please respect copyright.PENANAUeW59CFHYC
545Please respect copyright.PENANAgC3flKxxoI
在兩人起床盥洗時整理兩位的床鋪,再趁著剩下的空檔到二樓的學餐,依兩人的口味喜好及食量夾好早餐,趁熱送至兩人的書桌。在享用早餐時則是檢查書包及作業(不會幫忙寫作業),最後就是(其實沒有很必要的)護送兩人去上課。545Please respect copyright.PENANAM7cHLkZwHV
545Please respect copyright.PENANA6xYlNX2kg4
接下來是自由時間,但這段時間比起到處逛逛小夏反而更喜歡到學餐廚房幫忙。畢竟小夏的存在也獲得了校長的允許,不然光靠兩位學生的“擅自處理“是不太可能那麼順利的。545Please respect copyright.PENANAAUQ9Vhsxe9
545Please respect copyright.PENANAIzKVl1m5FG
雖然失去記憶,但身體對下廚的記憶似乎非常的熟練,不論中餐還是西餐,飲料還是甜點,只要有食材小夏都能完成,順利地為學餐的廚房淺輕了許多負擔。545Please respect copyright.PENANAsAEhlbFz5N
545Please respect copyright.PENANABGYlWoEsur
至於在不需要為學餐服務之時,她便去圖書館借閱書本,這是她第二大興趣,她對知識是相當渴求的,之所以沒有選擇入學,只緣於沒有錢足夠支付學費。545Please respect copyright.PENANAscxzCLEV8b
545Please respect copyright.PENANALRLbdELCrU
而在萬書之中,她似乎又對煉金術與魔藥特別有感觸,她覺得,製作藥水與煉製物質,就與料理一般,她甚至有想親手製作的念頭,無奈她是不可能使用教室的物品。545Please respect copyright.PENANA0cHiku4bcD
545Please respect copyright.PENANAD1wx84i2xv
「嘿,小夏!」545Please respect copyright.PENANAeaceMeM84v
就在她投入書本內容的研究之時,有個聲音喚醒了她。她看了過去,原來是伯特坐到了她的身邊。545Please respect copyright.PENANAN8Ee1KviiD
545Please respect copyright.PENANAJMsXnk88dJ
「你不用上課?」545Please respect copyright.PENANA84dgi162vx
「這節我沒修課喔。」545Please respect copyright.PENANAE55PSXvxMs
545Please respect copyright.PENANADRjS7Eh7Vt
壓低了音量交談,話語僅在兩者之間得以聽見。545Please respect copyright.PENANAff9PMRaDuG
545Please respect copyright.PENANAdFOw3MIFRI
他們一同度過了寧靜的下午,伯特偶爾會問小夏一些字的問題,奇妙的是,小夏似乎只忘記與自己身份相關的事情,知識倒是一點都沒忘。545Please respect copyright.PENANApzSQPWpv2p
545Please respect copyright.PENANAB8Z22eb7ki
「那,晚點見啦。」545Please respect copyright.PENANANXdERy2BUX
伯特爽朗的笑容映在她的眼中,偶爾她也會羨慕能夠笑的如此自然的他。545Please respect copyright.PENANAShJQi8a5ni
545Please respect copyright.PENANAxWwPDuvnqJ
看見那道身影終於遠離了門口,小夏放下書本,用手指試著將嘴角往上提,但那也只有很疼,並無助於她增加表情。545Please respect copyright.PENANA6tdvMAPzLW
545Please respect copyright.PENANACIXzoo8otR
「我在做什麼……」545Please respect copyright.PENANAEw0pRiQw6l
意識過來時,才驚覺自己好像做了什麼蠢事,於是趕緊放回書本,想去學校的其他地方透氣。545Please respect copyright.PENANA6omWLoz3Lt
545Please respect copyright.PENANAE9WLw4OlJG
「啊!小夏~」545Please respect copyright.PENANANjiZLwJ2zQ
這回從背後叫住小夏的是搬著箱子剛爬上七樓的木每。545Please respect copyright.PENANAjh3mNUMIZA
545Please respect copyright.PENANAIpeGs3jbEk
「木每小姐,我來幫忙吧!」545Please respect copyright.PENANAqBOxjmK1hx
試著接過箱子,卻發現重量比想像來的重許多倍,完全不像是眼前的少女可以輕鬆搬運如空箱的程度。545Please respect copyright.PENANACocylK1uQW
545Please respect copyright.PENANAInxncChdvG
「小夏沒問題嗎?還是我來吧?」545Please respect copyright.PENANAZWZf0RKKDj
看著對方腳步踉蹌,木每在一旁不安地問道。545Please respect copyright.PENANAW04xIJQn3R
545Please respect copyright.PENANAwWxtBYGpyn
「沒事,箱子裡的是?」545Please respect copyright.PENANAkh57R2P0Go
根據雙手預估,這紙箱少說也有60公斤,身旁的木每竟然能不動聲色的將其搬來七樓使小夏非常吃驚,上了不到半層的樓梯,開始可以感受到身體發熱。545Please respect copyright.PENANAsNeJVNNvfo
545Please respect copyright.PENANAn3yrUf7YHq
「母親給的一些額外作業喔!已經和老師溝通好可以使用魔藥教室了。小夏要不要也來……啊!不能找打手……。那要不要在一旁陪我呢?」545Please respect copyright.PENANAUGNp0Axq31
看著對方不知是點頭還是超出負荷地顫抖,木每也就都當做同意了,畢竟看他這個樣子,到了教室也要休息好一陣子才能重新活動吧?545Please respect copyright.PENANABS7qQAXARU
545Please respect copyright.PENANAjmqPbh2bo0
到了教室,小夏果然如木每所預想,放下箱子,便在附近的椅子坐下後就暫時無法動彈了,好似被無形的繩子綁在椅子上一般。一旁的木每用大釜煮著熱水,將箱子裡的材料一一拿出來做處理。545Please respect copyright.PENANAIqtTllvKnd
545Please respect copyright.PENANA940SpAjXFc
「小夏對魔藥有興趣嗎?」545Please respect copyright.PENANA7S0Cgnb6R0
看著對方雖然非常疲累,卻還是睜大眼觀察著木每的一舉一動,使她覺得有點有趣。545Please respect copyright.PENANAteNnbyB96j
545Please respect copyright.PENANAHB3lLCzFmP
「……」545Please respect copyright.PENANA2xSIpCSalM
看來是累得說不出話,小夏只是點了點頭。木每笑了笑,並開始為小夏講課。聲音溫柔平緩,眼皮也越來越沉重。545Please respect copyright.PENANACEtuBNhrmw
545Please respect copyright.PENANAGydP80gpSL
醒來時,眼前是一片森林,她的身體自己動了起來,往森林裡走,一直到一間木屋前,她並不知道這是何處,但她對木屋感覺十分熟悉,很自然的推開門,走了進去。545Please respect copyright.PENANA1wD2l2vBLQ
木屋中的壁爐正在燃燒著,木製桌子上頭有花瓶,裡頭插著幾朵紫陽花,她湊進,可以聞到一點芳香。545Please respect copyright.PENANA1ke6iO7vLY
545Please respect copyright.PENANAxNKoAgeu57
而在桌子那端看過去,可以看見廚房,廚房裡有個大鍋釜,她過去仔細瞧,發覺裡頭有一些液體,不知是什麼作用,看起來像是藥水。545Please respect copyright.PENANAzpf1edIV92
545Please respect copyright.PENANAZF6GaZt8Og
這個木屋似乎有兩層樓,她看著樓梯一會,決定上樓探索,走進了二樓的房間。545Please respect copyright.PENANAzo1Ss3oroI
545Please respect copyright.PENANAWVIdHf4h8J
那是一間乾淨整齊的臥房,有一張單人床,還有衣櫃等,裝潢相當齊全,而這些東西加深了她對這裡的熟悉感,好像她曾經在這裡生活過。545Please respect copyright.PENANAHKKJQ7NREY
545Please respect copyright.PENANAGgoBjo2rbS
一櫃旁有一面著衣鏡,樣子相當特別,是書本的造型,鏡面的部分就像一顆眼睛。545Please respect copyright.PENANAl6PrtE6JjT
545Please respect copyright.PENANAFzFzSYhCZl
而她想起了書本的造型好像在城堡那時見過,就是伯特特地帶出城堡那本。545Please respect copyright.PENANAoAnq4T7M8O
545Please respect copyright.PENANAYjX5usSIg3
「啊!」545Please respect copyright.PENANAw3VYjyj36k
小夏驚醒,原來那都是夢境,但她現在滿腦子都是想要解開那本書的迷團。545Please respect copyright.PENANAkshPSAh29H
545Please respect copyright.PENANAlmFt0W9In7
雖然只是一場夢,但她猜想,也許那本書與她的身份有所關連。545Please respect copyright.PENANA2fxhvEIbFm
545Please respect copyright.PENANArWVi9VMzG1
「小夏?」545Please respect copyright.PENANAuLHmVH6ZcR
木每站在小夏面前,似乎正想著如何喚醒她,而四周的材料及釜裡的藥水則不見蹤影。545Please respect copyright.PENANAStqvP8e1Kn
545Please respect copyright.PENANAs0FqLfZgd2
「我沒事。抱歉!我去確認一下。」545Please respect copyright.PENANAlTeMVjBnRP
留下滿頭問號的木每,小夏用最快的速度跑進伯特的房間,而那本書正好放在伯特的桌上,淡淡地發著黃色的光芒。545Please respect copyright.PENANA8OPKcBvLcS
545Please respect copyright.PENANAiGcyOCkGsc
而早就在房裡休息的伯特,一邊把玩著奧斯頓送的水晶,看見小夏慌忙進來,他困惑的看著。545Please respect copyright.PENANAKm6pW53rCb
545Please respect copyright.PENANACpHFwb9Btz
「怎麼了?」545Please respect copyright.PENANA8sRvebZx5l
伯特從躺著變成坐著,在床上看向她。545Please respect copyright.PENANAE7LZQdClHh
「書借我一下。」545Please respect copyright.PENANAeEn04t3Cvg
小夏說完,也沒等伯特同意,就將書本拿了起來。545Please respect copyright.PENANAwG3fxLcXsk
545Please respect copyright.PENANARWC5Tj91z6
書封面的眼睛發著光,但對她沒有任何反應,小夏翻開了書本,逐頁檢查,終於看到了一頁,標題寫著「魔女的木屋」。545Please respect copyright.PENANA4aSAe8tvLa
545Please respect copyright.PENANA6DiBI0Fi6T
木屋的樣子就跟她夢裡的一樣,就在她思考著兩者間的秘密,那頁發出了極強的光。545Please respect copyright.PENANAkJDpWmg3tn
545Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9e2IfAeGG
「小夏!」545Please respect copyright.PENANA0gAwaX6PNn
只聽伯特焦急的大喊她的名字,那之後,小夏已經身處在木屋前。545Please respect copyright.PENANAtSGx5cvC9R
545Please respect copyright.PENANApmJBrOKae8
她隨著夢境的劇情進入木屋探索,最終找到了鏡子,她伸手觸摸,鏡子裡逐漸顯現出影像,是伯特的臉,而伯特身後是他的房間。545Please respect copyright.PENANAdSwUQ8f4pz
545Please respect copyright.PENANASGpyqJ0N61
木屋就在書本裡,而鏡子就是書封上的眼睛,這一切都串連起來了。545Please respect copyright.PENANAAS51WuKy25
545Please respect copyright.PENANAgJa0F2vx7l
「伯特,聽的見嗎?」545Please respect copyright.PENANAKhM4p1a5GO
「聽的見喔!小夏你還好嗎?」545Please respect copyright.PENANAYcbykgkZoq
545Please respect copyright.PENANAq9S8WMY8Ip
兩人處在不同的世界,卻得以交談,小夏覺得甚是有趣。545Please respect copyright.PENANAWhKXlFaJhu
545Please respect copyright.PENANAmRjaJTDdJX
「我沒事喔。」545Please respect copyright.PENANAD4vP5ByOm7
接著,小夏對著鏡子輕輕的,唸出腦海中浮出的咒語。545Please respect copyright.PENANAEqQk9vuoGy
545Please respect copyright.PENANAEbE34sjweq
書本再次發光,這次,小夏是回到了書外的世界,她也發現了,似乎那書本只對她有所反應。545Please respect copyright.PENANATVxjTS2AA6
545Please respect copyright.PENANAhHV8jKMNDJ
「這本書可以暫時給我保管嗎?」545Please respect copyright.PENANAIUliOnyZY5
小夏向伯特要求,而對方爽快答應。545Please respect copyright.PENANAPa3sW9XMoJ
545Please respect copyright.PENANAxsX3Qt2Ivh
夜晚,伯特那房的人都沉沉睡去,書桌上的書本發出光亮,也無人發覺。545Please respect copyright.PENANAj8KcAc2V8d
