「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmOP6RaNRI
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb26DlvD75
「嗯……我估可能係你誤入我過去後再跌落平行宇宙嘅支流……」鈴兒道，「但阿柏，我之前講嘅職員無處可歸係認真，你已經…返唔到去現世，你明唔明？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4q06OZZ8g
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk42R8ETf7T
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCceNdSfh8M
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrxpirJYhj
明明她說找到回去的地方，動機，方法，就能脫離阡迴旅館回到常世。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNqHKv7fe3
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZocoiXQh8
「我講清楚啲：只要有齊返去嘅動機，地方，方法就可以重返現世，呢個規則只適用於住客。被阡迴旅館選中成為職員，其中一個條件好簡單，就係被挑選嘅人，佢返去嘅地方就係呢度，唔係常世，而係阡迴旅館。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl6RdcGJ70
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpz0jqLTYES
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldgj24gbcp
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuI8cORq2W
卻使我心頭一震！278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgLfS9hyTG
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGMFpyahKy
「身在阡迴旅館，但歸宿只得返阡迴旅館，因即為果，果即是因，成為職員就係咁嘅意思。受到阡迴旅館接納嘅我地可以查閱記錄簿，操作時間流，打開阡迴之門，召來解鈴之人，但亦代表住永遠被困係呢度。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95rQEU788e
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxU63FJE9PS
甚麼解鈴之人。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzS9bS4U497
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcldRH1vzx
「點……點會，我唔信！鈴兒，你講到咁，你擺明現世都有想返去嘅地方，你點可能歸宿只得返阡迴旅館？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKuTAY0VFy
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUufi1JBZs
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuPLuh4enY
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1NTJougjB
「我無。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDVydTKCAe
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaF4ZYvB5d
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtApXnFX9x
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CGnSEWVTb
「鈴兒……」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVPXHMU5dm
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4Qjz66VTl
「我嘅事，遲下再同你講，反正我講唔講你都會去偷睇架啦。」鈴兒別過去整理情緒，「至於成為職員主要工作，我依加教你。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6pU9VkXPA
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRCnIVltbK
「你真係無事？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzLZeFCrE9
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZ0QInb5F7
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYgjWmqg5n
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNmk8g8OMk
不會因時間過去而疲憊意味著鈴兒可以無止境地疲勞轟炸。當有人進入阡迴旅館這異世時，我們就會聽到風鈴聲在遠方低鳴。接著只要查看紀錄簿，上面就會浮現新住客的名字。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkO0D6lMxAR
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjNAOKS1gK
有時候她們會在阡迴旅館外徬徨地徘徊不敢開門，即使無論怎樣走也會繞回這兒，她們都不敢推門而進，這時候我們便要出去迎接。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpV59PZIg3
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0ZaU0IPq4
「明……明白。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpobFb7Y1T
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaFEHbRFVK
雖說這兒沒有時間流逝，但我已經聽到頭昏腦漲了，鈴兒一股腦兒地在說著阡迴旅館的法則和我們身為職員的職責，原來很多東西都是靠我們用時間回溯來收拾和補充物資，特別是引導住客回去常世那部分她竟然還準備了筆記！278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSH3ikJfApx
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiVHNDmhOW
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfpUG0ZJXW
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtteyRa7if
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADHkYov6AE
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tR9hCNf7k
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwfnJKQkLu
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukopn5TOFc
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjtdGCMr13
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpcS3DyXcA
「但你等陣返房後，要自己好好練習時間流操作。」鈴兒掏出一個精緻的沙漏說。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtnDI6sJgZ
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19T72TQgSn
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRDOpTLl6X
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmEG1dkk4k
「你真係……」鈴兒沒好氣地說，「睇住，沙粒正常係咁樣流落嚟，但我可以令沙漏嘅沙一粒粒咁樣落下，即係操作精度去到毫秒級。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5linTUbdp
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxfOZFYmvp
沙漏即使被翻轉，中間的玻璃細頸中亦只有一粒接一粒的沙落下，沙漏的時間正被鈴兒緩速。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEC26BlTJn
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhmlpxSP7C
「你嚟試下？集中精神，想像住將沙漏嘅時間放慢，好似睇戲嘅慢動作就得。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWnnHttCcv
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphCj9YBSOg
「好。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ReQN1Ny1p
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkru85xmyJv
沙漏中的沙被停下。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lcp23a16K
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSdKgWHjJi
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7yLSBPeLE
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRf1xxlwa8
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2C9MlufQF7
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9YWz1pH74
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVvOfBQgnI
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9XYMwQqnP
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVW8Q6U9CQ
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpG6SWIzWw
「呃……呃……」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YFrpQb7to
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9pOtcmM4w
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaQMkuP77H
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuO7GzwJG9P
我集中精神死命地瞪著沙漏，但要不就是沙流完全被停下，要不就是一縷縷沙落下又停，落下又停，我沒法像鈴兒那樣精準地控制時間緩速到一粒粒沙落下。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYHCPc1Tqb
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIWm55Ma1J
「有排你練習，嘿嘿。」她輕拍我肩膊說，「今日就到呢度為止喇，我都知你見攰。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz88ns7ZL9u
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiWWSIEmfG
「……」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtoQjX4ZCv
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdavAALyUT7
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBF1XqT0My
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzA6nm7GFdF
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nyXeH2wcT
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hDqCU8tX0
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmkP7bNRoa
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6qVdvn4bJ
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3O2eBb01s
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVP2i6Z8eJ
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBIN946zKD
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFjO6s4WD0
假如鈴兒是錯的。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDB0RyPXr0v
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKa4NBsKADJ
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCHytLQoTL
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMktdVsifoH
「……你咩意思？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8m47tkCRO
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuxaO3VMPM
我雙手一攤說：「鈴兒，你係呢度嘅唯一職員，呢個設定……或者話呢個結論係邊個同你講？係有員工手冊之類？我就覺得無，因為如果有你一定已經俾咗我睇。咁樣呢個解釋係邊個提出？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyV9LE1773G
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWA1HMV2lj
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxYgkq8FEA
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKgcNU08vt
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTd1ZKNtXQH
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbkNEBLX7Z
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QKX9pPi7p
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyfoIBXTqI
「阡迴之門？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSocwbYMXX
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9t4oPatrN
「跟我嚟。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eg0xKdfbs
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6L9g4xslG
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXtltLJ6BP
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpwneiYrpy
「阡迴之門你知係點運作啦？但係當我諗住去睇自己嘅未來時。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlS4jdyKKqP
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLexaCGxKK2
「叮…叮……」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4tf8AvGQr
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBaEKrUvxc
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeozylCgz2B
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgH60egJISV
「就會咁。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hMNpcsdmG
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCFy5iW6zd
鈴兒打開阡迴之門，門後是一個巨大的天井，我們正在圍繞天井的空中迴廊之上。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5H9fh9nvU
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnX6AgXWkLV
「係阡迴旅館？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8btgc82KUS
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruSH39abKy
「無錯，唔係平行宇宙，唔係過去，邊度都唔係，每次我打開阡迴之門想睇自己未來時，都只會返返嚟阡迴旅館。」鈴兒說，「即係話，並唔存在我返回常世嘅未來。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVEWfQD30g
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFIiuFWsn1
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EtE2HgSb7
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIMaQlsUgMt
比方說，在千億萬個平行宇宙之中，有我當上美國總統的未來嗎？沒有的，無論我怎樣選擇，命運如何變化，決不可能出現我成為美國總統的未來。未來是有限的，就如我有生之年都不會登上火星，就如我有生之年都不會成為總統。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYq2UK4KGY
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqs1tG3k6Tu
而且這是未來，是基於現實而成立；而現實，是基於過去而成立，具體來說例如我死去的父母，人死不能復生，無論怎樣選擇，我父母也決不可能復活，所以阡迴之門亦沒法通向我父母在世的未來。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZacqwfVh6
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WtCvzCFSC
如是者，由鈴兒為自己打開阡迴之門的話，就只會通回阡迴旅館內某個隨機位置。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAQyWvZZ9h
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnYAlDEd6K
沒有回去常世的未來。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDRci4l3uR
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhCt6TJyOa
「唔好理道門！」我生氣地摔上打開的阡迴之門，「鈴兒，你有無地方想返去？！你有無未完成嘅夢想或者目標？！唔好理道門，問你自己個心就得！」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjElmZQbfv
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhHcsFjQVs
本來以為我自己突破了鈴兒被阡迴之門宣告沒有未來的困境。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjruROR5le
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghqXe4M4Lu
本來我以為會得出「即使阡迴之門沒有通向任何地方，但鈴兒心中還有歸去之地」的結論。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcnRm914l0
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡble4XkFaye
可是，卻——278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHMOS04dPD
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxEW1Yublp
「無。」鈴兒說。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGRiSJiFLJ
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzmOrvgtLq
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYJLvrubbX
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwFxMzXVff
「但真係無，多謝你，阿柏，多謝你對我嘅事咁緊張，但真係無。」她說，「我真係就只想留係度，常世之中我無地方返去，我亦唔想返去。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PYUcJ7jtx
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNV0aeZE6jB
「真心咩……」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjy2MdT0HhC
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqiP7bV1eE
「我個時已經……你明明都係一樣成為咗職員，應該都明白先岩。」鈴兒低聲道，「你想返去邊？」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyCXqvNhHh
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyXVByLmeT
我一時間答不出來。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnUAWcfKjS
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmlS78f3p6
回家？當然了，我想回家。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArTIyOvA2F
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkpYzsprb6
但之後呢？278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtQXYis6y8
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGR9W9TxhU
他把自己的心臟交了給我，就只為了讓我成為這樣的人嗎？讓我呆在家中望天打卦？278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2UQm8dgRN
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3WLeaYdxS
我甚麼也不會成為的。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxf64NCSay
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaT5FtpvqL
繞了一圈，回到了最開首的那個問題：接下來，我還可以去哪兒？278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQj6ehOKFd
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzY8pzK58Pl
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlfBZiL6OK
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaQ2X4ywet
「好好諗下，阿柏，我都希望你唔會永遠被困係度，我都希望你證明職員都可以返去常世，咁我返房先啦。」278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0nraG9pP3
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufVnXrqsGz
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoboGjFx6c
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUIFMIzkft
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BHRtW9Q9S
278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZISxJAySry
看著鈴兒轉身離開的背影，我卻感到心中一陣沉重和無力感。278Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMX2K65xa4
