把手吹乾後我推門而出，才沒走出幾步就發現這兒只有一片死寂，耳邊甚至因太安靜而微微耳鳴。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGcwhDB25T

「啲人呢……」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcb4BgUSDEM
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnI34m2kzV
穿過那扇門不出所料地回到宴會廳，那兒只剩下空空如也的舞台。晚宴的圓桌上只有吃剩的食物，它們還是暖的，牛扒被割出的一小塊上有叉子插著，紅酒從杯邊滑下明顯是剛剛被喝完放到案上，一切一切如同人們在吃食途中突然憑空蒸發般。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPoDMDP3E3
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXi37IgVqq
全身起了雞皮疙瘩的我轉身跑出：「喂！！有無人啊！！有無人係度啊！！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxF7x4KOji
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1g4jjgGC1T
「……係……度……啊……」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzQP9jdgYX
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPCCnSV7Rf
除了我自己的迴音外只有一片寂寥，逢門就開，見門就讚的我始終只是普通地穿過門框，門後卻沒有阡迴旅館！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkxSoxGIVw
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfoT9byRFI
沒有，沒有，沒有！！門後沒有阡迴旅館！我被困在平行宇宙了？！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqDVAbSjWA
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykkPEtsFTo
這時只是用來展示不同平行宇宙可能性的空間，阡迴旅館沒有時光機的功能，我們並非真正到達了未來，所以在「展示」結束後，這空間也開始消滅了嗎？！等等我還在這兒啊！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4z4BPvIhkM
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7B7KWR1vAG
我把臉貼到玻璃窗上望向酒店外，外頭只是一片漆黑，連地面也不存在！整座酒店就如懸浮在虛空之中，我也連忙把從酒店內逃出去的念頭打消！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZVMq9KivI
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0Be7JYL6V
現在怎麼辦，現在怎麼辦，我要永遠地困在這異空間之中了嗎？416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4Yb0CDhvV
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjHrAkEG0G
「喵～」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnukPWfEgD
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUP8dNKuHr
「渺…渺渺？！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJd70tGR8f
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5rF8KdbEE
頹然坐在地上抱頭的我，卻突然聽到貓叫聲。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeRu403fOj
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDN2rGkJIwF
「叮鈴…」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEeN02n1R4
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpflDEy1NQt
風鈴聲！真的是渺渺？還是鈴兒發現我還沒回去所以折返救我了？！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyElfnWHRiM
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3nuNT0Dk5
「渺渺？！你係邊啊！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8QlaBBy6s
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZmpl6sukP
我站起來東張西望，卻始終沒法鎖定渺渺的方向。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoQJTBqWE2
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7csynXECe
走廊盡頭有人！！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFHZkPZ2wf
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzk9e5hfL9u
「……小姐！等陣！！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdd6yfc2koh
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡno0tgRGx1Z
那個「女生」對我的叫喚充耳不聞，繼續向走廊深處步去，不行，這兒就只有那個女生在了，不能放她走！！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FwttVRwkr
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ICa5ncya6
「等陣！！求下你，停一停！！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHYP7YtfcJ
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLk9dlylPo
更可怕的事發生了，隨著我追向那女生，我身後的酒店竟然開始淡出！牆壁地板燈光漸漸沉沒於虛空之中，視野中的景深突然變長，走廊深似無盡，身後的昏暗正洶湧而至！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o0kPJowJ0
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR3OFVa3j8
不能……我不能停下腳步！這樣會被身後的虛空追上……416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ3vfV0ooE
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMgcbBal4N
等等，那人是！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDrjhFK3Me
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtENuR6BeV3
「鈴兒！！我係度啊！！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNff786GaUe
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4IEZij9BM
追……追不上！我和鈴兒之間的走廊不斷伸延，她就在視野之中，但我卻永遠追不上她！！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaSoK3RfUJ
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIR12qwirjy
「等埋我…求下你…唔好連你都扔低我……夏！鈴！兒！！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kPjVfYR4O
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwVsjADNVq
「砰！！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbua889GGT
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBa7GkmSwyk
「哎呀！嗚…」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZlidJKAtw
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnamugFKpSb
收制不及的我狠狠地撞到關上的門板，狼狽不堪的我連忙推開門：「鈴兒！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHXj7Ra94N
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwqJNl3CKE
「……我識得你？」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7wd0baoT9
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggd4SUtPQL
咦？416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfuWx0irQR
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXWc0twph2
等……等，哪兒來的門？我在哪兒？416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85murLhL5g
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygxJv3Jc8f
氣喘如牛的我站直身，發現自己正身處於一條走廊之中，米白色的牆壁，灰色膠地板，還有分隔病床和走廊的玻璃窗。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAn8NIwwd2
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpM2OvXot8
一看便知這是醫院。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnGf3QSZBk
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6f2xzGfitY
「鈴…鈴兒…我頭先…嗄…你聽我講，真係嚇死我…」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dTVKAraFa
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoU7mSivtl
「先生，我地唔識對方，就請唔好直接叫我個名。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1fI6KhYeg
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfJe7d1uQR
眼前的鈴兒，極之冰冷。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvlQxs7p8g
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmu21Eq5pye
「但係……」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiC2y8nNEee
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshLomhydVB
她眼中沒有一絲光彩，沒有一絲生氣，只看她的雙瞳如在凝視深淵，甚至不知她是死是活。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIu2iSqyL9V
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iIMxU4iKO
我剛剛撞在門上的側臉和鼻翼還隱隱作痛，如果是真正的鈴兒理應至少會關心我有否受傷之類。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfkOM1NtNd
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2qnNVMvHm
「我返去做野先。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvGM6FOg7Z
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tEdnH1U9R
鈴兒眼中只有冷如冰霜的鄙視，那陌生的冰冷表情使我不寒而慄，但其胸前的名牌是寫著「夏鈴兒」沒錯。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1OfJ5DMwk
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbapn1d7vk
看著遠去的她，我完全摸不著頭腦，她突然怎麼像變了一個人似的還不記得我了？416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOBjcaWMJS
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZAov4Bzjs
但馬上我就看出端倪了。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjK8Qj2gS0
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQc2p7INSK
無論是那邊那個醫生手上拿著的摺式手機。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FPKzXjHsv
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsZmyQQsQk
還是在角落中放著的顯像管「大牛龜」顯像管電視。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2eiuHTnbl
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHywgfKch97
這兒不是未來，不是現在，不是平行宇宙，更加不是阡迴旅館。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVszteXcsY
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYppDpdxWng
這是過去，鈴兒成為阡迴旅館職員前的過去。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwU5qEoOlAN
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvjeNIld4M
［13座 西翼4/F］416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRHclQ6420
［安寧病房］
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGF8Yf4lSK0
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG27NLNAXjB
走廊外的門牌上如此寫著，加上鈴兒的打扮和名牌，她是安寧病房的護士。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTrOUWQwD8
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVJ8HkDvT7
才一想起剛剛她那神情，那恍如宣告對一切都不感興趣的冷漠表情，除了陌生外我更感到胸口一陣悸動和沉重，如被重物壓住般沒法喘息。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyftGxIDlyA
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KvnUSYnV6
我知道甚麼是安寧病房。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfXo9Yx61r
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqL8zzDhK1I
安寧病房中的病人都是到了無藥可治的地步，入住這兒非為了治療，而是透過醫療手段減輕離世前痛苦，使其人生最後的時光不用滿身被喉管插著，能保有最後的尊嚴，而且盡可能無痛地渡過於常世中最後的彌留。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvtrpNxHlR
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckducmyHoW
鈴兒走到走廊盡頭進入一間房中，身在平行宇宙的我如隱形人，只要不動聲色就會自動被無視，即使好像剛剛那樣和鈴兒說話她也會馬上忘掉，所以我也這樣大刺刺地跟上。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwALY13OaI
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa47S30JrTg
「……預計佢撐唔過今晚，通知佢屋企人嚟見最後一面做好心理準備。」這房間似乎是個迷你的會議室，當中一名像是護士長般的人平靜地說著。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj411OCeuLz
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZL0eWz7AKQ
「明白。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL8ljo7TjU
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyun81Gac7X
鈴兒的回答沒有一絲起伏，連悲慟都沒有，在這死亡每日上演的安寧病房之中她是如此習以為常。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiG0Llx8zZ
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUnWN1dK5S
好冰冷，她的表情。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5wxafMJlE
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyFpPQvZRk
好陌生，她的身影。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU99PkZrm5e
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXweVoD3qFM
鈴兒在自己的筆記簿上一邊寫字一邊說：「我會通知工友Standby，盡快清好張床俾新病人。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIoE5PZM52
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdimkwlxzxs
「嗯，至於其他有離世風險病人嘅名同床號已經係你地手上，要多加注意。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQCCnPWebx
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrBbX7MQjP
「等陣，聽日入住嘅新病人，點解……無資料？」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0rCVBk0Bj
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bsYO6CsVV
「除左夏姑娘之外，大家都出返去做野先。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsDMyFbxNh
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPzYIAaVhG
「係。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAW3NMPkO1
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALF5uZhAUC
其他護士點點頭轉身離去，還順手關上門，我當然站在那兒繼續聽。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMOL01URVL
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVd3RfWyRp
「聽日嚟嘅新病人會訓佢張床，夏姑娘，我希望你可以負責佢嘅入院手續。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxMANT3JZ3
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEQfWHXlnh
「好。」鈴兒簡短地點頭。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNTlG8JF86
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzABgXW2M3J
「你就唔問下點解要搞到咁神秘？」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOWWEopiw5
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFixtE4dV7c
「我認為自己無需要知道，如果我有需要知道，護士長早就俾咗資料我。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuST6xjPItk
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdjJ3Q3y7t
「當然，但理由我希望自己親口講你知，你會主力負責佢，其他姑娘如非必要同緊急都唔會同佢有咩溝通。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9yj52guVw
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTyiqsxibc
「咁原因係咩？」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFDq6RQ0LR
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHyIQuXZD8
護士長拿出一份文件：「你之前有無睇新聞？嗯，身為護士嘅你雖然只係負責安寧病房……」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mpRVzhfE2
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCS3UPyGgC
「喵！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGaNSs2SbH
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWPPHsSE6p
突然間我腳邊傳來一陣毛茸茸的感覺，我連忙低頭一看：「渺渺？！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRi5SEAD5x
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkB5MBV5GRK
米色的毛球不知從哪兒鑽出，在我雙腳之間以尾巴蹭磨，然後推開虛掩的門從縫隙溜了出去！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYFuWx2ymi
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxQM03PFLe
「渺渺，等埋我！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYjJclrpte
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDGQuo2jlW
是來接我嗎？正如那時候我迷途至阡迴旅館時，也是渺渺在引路，牠知道回去的路！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkl8eYnTgy
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2AND3Z9lq
「渺渺！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfs8AKrVdq
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8y4RnPn9Iw
難得看到回去的希望，雖然很在意鈴兒的過去但是待會兒問她就好了，怎可能放渺渺跑掉！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGFI5VbgXf
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCLc7M4ujg
「渺渺！嘁……真係，肥成咁點解可以跑得咁快！？」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5vfRvsKsT
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzFqMwBVRK
「喵哈？！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGRklEZwsl
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBt1gw6aTC
在走廊盡頭的牠聽到似乎有點生氣，但還是在那兒等著我。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjs6WCPyXZy
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPGgB0IUcT
急步追上的我才一拐過那個角落——416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5p5jLSoBw
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND7a4Y4xfa
「叮……叮……」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9QAN8z91v
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlg6NgnDvz
風鈴聲，在幽閉的走廊中迴盪。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3qDzJ6fBD
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhurTa12jrv
「…嗄…呼…」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HlUNOv00P
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KAHMfSjVR
深呼吸，閉上眼，我如鈴兒那樣以心傾聽，聞聲辨位，試圖找出風鈴聲的來源。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PIgtMQ2GN
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRg8Nlno1x
風鈴聲，來自阡迴旅館。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIHb7Kqi86
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzliXov5s6
「叮……叮……」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl40SwdDYmM
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4ajsveCTG
鈴聲相當悅耳，閉眼靜心傾聽能使人想起盛夏之中，青天白雲之下，屋簷邊陲的琉璃風鈴迎著夏風輕輕搖曳奏鳴。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDz5zC0JOH
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWGQ4BX6Yt
找到了！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv14xHMFjJc
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0dlxReAhe
「喵！」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMw3fFOczc
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5QdoD2Jjl
渺渺幾個躍動從地板跳到我小腿，爬過背脊然後騎在我肩上，我信步隨著風鈴聲傳來的方向推開一扇門！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHGyCZBc5u
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiJ4gG8Gpp
光芒將我淹沒，待其褪去後我看到自己正身在古色古香的阡迴旅館之中。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuREknSJbRY
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwg60FiWUHZ
回來……回來了！416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaPQve7002
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwudsi0a14S
「呼…呼…」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVGCCwFhOF
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWxPML3LoI
定眼看四周，我卻發現自己正身在阡迴旅館的頂樓。為甚麼我這樣肯定？因為在我身旁的天井可以看到最高處的天花板，木樑木柱在天花板四周交織出木塔的巨大屋頂，而這層沒有任何房間或門，就只有半開放的戶外空間。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2tsKsdH02
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBIsCMgtmw
「返嚟啦，溫年柏。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6OA2xxGtU
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSvFb6OTzb
與木欄柵相對著的是一個小露台，露台朝西迎向夕陽，那兒鋪著榻榻米，放著一張矮桌和座墊，一個沒有見過的男人坐在那兒，身穿白袍背對著我，一些茶具齊整地放在深木色的矮桌上冒著芬芳的蒸氣。416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNElHQsJwd
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVq1KIpI8o
「你係……」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY616SGbgu8
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxX7k9Fw9g
「熟人。」416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFS62BNUZO1
416Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtEqFc3IPF
本來迎著夕陽的男人回首向我微笑，即使他戴著眼鏡也看得出他滿臉倦容，但一對上眼我卻感到心頭一陣猛跳，好像看到久違的老朋友一樣，盡管我不認識眼前的男人。
