第七幕祗园烟花(3/4)（1/2）

土方来到山南的房间，原本守在屋外的斋藤也跟着入内。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>snljhoxwaeIWVXt0QT6NJg5ZikcyqB48KUSGzL9M</blockquote>

放下手中的书籍，朱琬萍扶着山南转身面对来人。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>zraCkPbcqJLHmne7hUBswITfY1E03iWVjpgtQ85v</blockquote>

「池田屋一役告捷，除了赏赐，会津藩已正式任命新选组担任维护京都治安的职务。」土方沉静地说道。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>UqZM5ohW3LR9VelkmvKIErdsfwbAj64YXFy</blockquote>

「真是个好消息呢，土方君。」接过朱琬萍递上的茶杯，山南俊秀的脸庞扬起一丝难得的笑意，「其他人的伤势已经复原了吗？」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>WPibNqDl4IjaB08GmvXpJgd3MTE6eO7sYrZ9xV21</blockquote>

「大致上无碍。」土方对送来茶水的朱琬萍颔首致意，「不过，总司与平助得再休养一段时日才能归队。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>DW5S9uAUJC7cbH4LVhytPqTsBgkjFwIXzmavi2RE</blockquote>

「是吗？」垂着视线，山南不自觉的垮下双肩，「透过休养就能复原归队，真是太好了……」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>cefPWb7INSBogLKlpx4CmMdYQuAztUsvjD5q1J8R</blockquote>

「山南先生？」轻轻拉住滑落山南肩头的外褂，朱琬萍忍不住低唤。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>abSefCsgi6TrOPkJmhIpAlzUncZdDMKXHE0Wo3vB</blockquote>

虽然不见得一字不漏地听懂他们的对话，但是她紮实的捕捉到山南先生眼底的黯然与落寞。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>GqW8bR69OCZK3X50v7zsNTwS2Uual1VxhtQfyYdn</blockquote>

「抱歉……」回头望着朱琬萍，山南轻拍左肩上的柔荑，「我应该再振作一点，让你担心了。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>F6fXaHNiJTmU1dRn3yGDhS8OAkQrsZPMqW4Y57uI</blockquote>

「嗯，加油。」螓首轻点，朱琬萍浅浅g起一抹笑。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>YLX8ZotvIwk32Qe1AsJ9hrRnCjf0KVWlcOGbHg5E</blockquote>

「琬小姐，现在正是只园祭的庆典。」土方侧首对斋藤使了个眼sE，「你看过庆典里那些华美的鉾车（注）吗？」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>xuEtPphLnsrBmySzefGAMT4IQ7aFNqX1R53WwKVi</blockquote>

「没有。」听完山南的转述，朱琬萍微笑着摇摇头。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>K9v0U72kteR3CJmOSZVHdWAaBg86YyoG41ELQjih</blockquote>

离开台湾出国念书的那几年，让她四处游历玩耍的都是欧美国家。在此之前，她压根没想过要到日本，更加不了解他们的风土民情。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>eK5v9LMAh6YSzqOpHruwiE78sogUT2kGB0y34</blockquote>

「去看看吧！」向上扬起的嘴角，软化了土方向来坚毅而刚y的脸部线条，「庆典热闹非凡。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>36E27GrCHlPhvekpSqdf8mZtsNxAaBuQXVgTJY9W</blockquote>

「是啊，也许你会喜欢。」回望土方的视线，山南随即跟着附和。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>69xWJzHmeBAslcuQDM7kwgCrTPK8250oVpaYbyvS</blockquote>

「可是我——」识出土方与山南眼神交会时的异常波动，朱琬萍只好把「不喜欢凑热闹」这句话给吞回去。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>NwAIObgK7rLj1ZDazSHY3TtE8Py62MUfeGpFh9dl</blockquote>

「藉此机会，穿穿那件和服，出去走走吧……」笑弯了一双灰眸，山南很诚挚的建议，「应该会很适合你。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>37NJf0erSOzqHtMF8BVigQjpDo5uax2UXYL96</blockquote>

待脚步声远离，山南再次端起茶杯轻啜，问道：「你故意支开她？」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>MCHgX7xvwtRqI5YiEZdjypNOesclFf69ArS0D24h</blockquote>

「既然你相信她所说过的每一句话……」抬起一双波光闪烁的紫眸，土方话说得又轻又慢，「那就该明白，不属於这里的她，总有一天会离开。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>MG7ZqtQosD8b5u69ALc1aHpnP0YUgdrSjOINCifk</blockquote>

「你想说甚麽？」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>PQKt8s9WgrD5koASbylRmYHJhpLdUf3IvMV</blockquote>

「不可否认，她有着让人难以忽视的外貌……」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>4AZ1d2R3EhVHwzLDvmI67MCjUTbJfs0QXG9orx</blockquote>

「我没有那麽肤浅。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>A7mp0eX6csgFfjVzHQ4uad9RxUIhwGWTqOPKty</blockquote>

「所以我才更加担心。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>b8p9XQoi1qaMO5xgLdj3Cr2fTcPkUeZAIRwBJFnu</blockquote>

紧盯山南微微漾红的俊秀脸庞，土方不着痕迹的轻叹：「希望你没忘记她的来历太过迷离诡异，如果哪天——」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>QsUFfcey01oqdXintP2OYCgzr6RLl9GTh8VjEbWJ</blockquote>

「我知道！」山南不自觉的捏紧手中的杯子。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>VrhSRJMkXFOKpQIZNU6atdmHf4v319eL8DuWj2l5</blockquote>

「这样最好。」歛回眸光，土方缓缓起身，酝在眼底的担忧却分毫未见消退，「那麽，不打扰你休息了。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>NFM2slWDPo07iwzy931HqdIguxtUXmCjfbYR4GSv</blockquote>

瞅着自己的左肩，山南下意识地伸出右手抓住肩头，彷佛上面还残留着另一只手的余温。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>Yg23sOkL0jfWTir6IM1muv8ltdBX9Gh</blockquote>

良久，独坐房内的山南重重吐出一口长气。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>UgTfeFBbKiuZ0cVtRQzodEs8mmaD9hOnClI</blockquote>

但愿他——真的知道！<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>qxZTJ6tWvKiSpG2sdDU3aoM0g95yRXmh4QuNYEBC</blockquote>

注：鉾车，外型高大如山的四轮车，以人力拉动使其运行，尺寸可分大小，普通一点的鉾车<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>njdutDMFY1cQh3WV28NOwa7CkSG0Jpy6sPebK4gm</blockquote>

至少仍需动用要十五至二十名的人力。用於祭典中祈福、并巡回绕境，藉以驱退恶鬼邪灵。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>WVUSDRm9GgOZ6zBvHK8EbhaNt2d4y7kIlXuArpeo</blockquote>

於此同时。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>ZCBrXpgwM86VTGIxSWNFijQH0At15ebuyDdKhzOn</blockquote>

「你还没换衣服。」斋藤唤住迳自往後门走去的朱琬萍。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>cu9eq78SXngz14jyiwLNQZR0omIbDvfC5tGAWOhK</blockquote>

「不需要，这样的穿着b较方便行动。」朱琬萍弯腰拍拍K摆。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>wOozfhUjqDFdJxc19R34bnMyuvVNC6ST7QXHAra5</blockquote>

「总长说过，让你穿上和服出去走走。」俊眉微皱，斋藤伸手指了指反方向，「看来年纪轻轻，记X却不怎麽好！」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>PYAgjxKlcUJT1FyBGXvmO5wNQ7Ck8zbs0n3u2op9</blockquote>

「不……不是吧……」睇着一脸认真的斋藤，朱琬萍面有菜sE的咽了口唾Ye，「有必要这样吗？」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>Ti7HLSUIdZQDtlwENjGMqYXVmyCfJBaW8v</blockquote>

「有。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>ZuUt9LYWKO0wRjnSEc54Xx2r1bsoQ8JPqDlhyTHA</blockquote>

「……」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>hBWO39mdCQLHajierTqkRDu6nJE7vyNb8x14McG5</blockquote>

垮着双肩，朱琬萍对着身上裹着的蓝sE布料，垂头叹气。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>Z4ziT1UXAW3lCRs7rf0I5dMgPnxacHhQptYwej2F</blockquote>

她这是哪根神经搭错线，现在给自己找上这等麻烦？然而，更令她匪夷所思的，就是乖乖回房间换衣服的她自己！<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>rJvKPg6BsEWYj3Mzq2NpZiHluwXx4kVtSG7O59eD</blockquote>

费了九牛二虎之力才穿好和服，眼下紮在腰腹间一团乱的腰带，却证明她早就忘光了千鹤曾经教过她的步骤与结法。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>xdYvBnUuN9Ib84LijFGZQWp61XlCfODtg</blockquote>

据说，这件还只是小振袖，大礼服的穿戴与腰结更是繁复华丽，根本非她一己之力所能为之。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>bWENJrGdIDqOX3t5fYu9gRisSzKonjvwAc6kmx</blockquote>

她投降了……就这样子吧！<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>xGwQWETohabNXs2YOkeFMjrLV3f67CUp</blockquote>

「你——」斋藤的表情，显然找不到合适的字眼出口成话。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>Uwt8pde7uf1bXErTOY2W6Ao3BI4kiFQ5sqv</blockquote>

「我忘记怎麽紮，甚麽都别说了。」朱琬萍拉拉被她绑在後腰部的大蝴蝶结，「走吧，快去快回。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>h80gnPkcOypLjVA6MdfWJ7xDmuilH9KrTIq5B</blockquote>

「失礼了。」一掌将朱琬萍推回房内，斋藤掩上门的同时，转过她的肩膀让她背向自己，「我来吧。会b你这模样外出好一些，请用手压住x口和腰摆。」<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>MjBAJiXlPKrc5aWv6feRyuTd0Nshxmtg8IkOwQ7n</blockquote>

「喔……谢谢。」朱琬萍没有拒绝。八成自己的潜意识里，也被斋藤发青的脸sE给惊吓到。<blockquotecite=''https:///index''css=''cht''style=''background:#fff;border-left:5pxsolid#4a84ce;padding:20px50px;''>AMHCxKUWOJtbogp0lyjYD25h4NwZPRznI1XkSaLu</blockquote>
