夜深，我來到準備打烊的麵店。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxXMyBAKkQ
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1w4cTniNyW
「一碗淨麵。」486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeaYX6giLr
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVncuqCrro
老闆瞥了我一眼，不發一言，雙手來回忙著。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXH28SDka6
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRajA9BqdEF
他的臉色不大好看，正如我剛才點菜時的語氣也不禮貌。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mORvhFmhl
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6oO5X3Mw5
我知道兩者沒有關連，他板著臉並非因為我的不禮貌，我的不禮貌並非因為他板著臉。各有前因，各有煩惱，毋須對號入座。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGEdVQRrT7
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAVyRIDNbt
麵來了。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnL48jtEwG
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kmyvtR97A
名副其實的淨麵。沒有湯汁，沒有調味料，沒有配料。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWobkgiGx0
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90HG3Q3UvS
「有可能好吃嗎？」老闆的臉色依然玄青，聲調卻是淡然如水，不含惡意。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPStAqEJHi0
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKg9pEGqBu
「我不需要它好吃。」我低頭吃麵，心裡希望老闆閉嘴。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE55wJ2W5X
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXt937uM6z
也許老闆不知道該如何接話，僅是站在原地，默默看我將淨麵吃清光。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxzwcaEgfx
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2udHbnWf7
我掏出銀包取鈔票，老闆突然又開口：「你光顧這店不下百次，每次只點一碗淨麵。由於這種吃法太奇怪，我早在你光顧的第十次已然開始留意你。」486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGToV1xYzO
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOORbHWAcpF
「有沒有甚麼特別發現？」我拿著鈔票的手沒有收回，繼續遞向老闆。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDDusKKDYF
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSuqou1rTi
「你從事服務業。」老闆有意無意地交叉雙手架在胸前，沒有接過鈔票。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCy7x1iqYw
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3aOMdIlBE
「何以見得？」我的手不自覺退回來。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubIchVQNFI
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooqvoRR3hu
「每次你的臉色不大好看，語氣也不禮貌，就像一碗淨麵。」老闆毫不客氣。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbv4uYZBgK
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFTlhOw8J9
「還以為服務業從業員都是笑臉迎人的！」我笑老闆過於主觀。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJY1dJ52q0
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJFXk2X6Y7
「你已然下班。」老闆眼神放軟，狀甚憐惜：「你累了，累得沒能假裝。」486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMu29I55Yty
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqbvSD1BpC
「你想太多。」我假笑，再次將鈔票遞予老闆。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvdOaNw3qT
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH86OIxlZck
老闆點點頭，終於伸手接下鈔票，但沒有感謝我的惠顧。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjWVHBTeBb
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw39ef3vuWZ
我走出麵店，猶豫要不要繼續光顧這麵店——被看穿心思的感覺令我很不安、很難受。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIT2td30Ne
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvgBjAP5uz
心念電轉，靈光一閃，驀地抬頭。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lwRJDtaKj
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWz2XsIiKfm
算了吧。486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55UEVT2gKq
486Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5xXNOXysj
難得遇到一個敢於對客人板著臉的老闆。
