「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5p4V4lHzC
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR21O9sbZR5
「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？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWfQVimCBB
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJRMOgxmeT
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQxzCTA5V9
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwcw3iowGi
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMzAigeEay
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYijJCWiPxv
「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。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6ba95DKP3
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUN1OXPRBI
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6QFsRGq1t
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4W7r3saFF
卻使我心頭一震！388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBRLH86xgG
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2q3rwlMdp
「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。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutSfTv5WEG
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7KNLD1vb1
甚麼解鈴之人。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfclqF9uXzA
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLCOpnqIem
「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？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wZeSPswn9
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh5N0xI9Dr
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdYPqnUZwM
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ApUirEiwd
「我無。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqH0UKnfxa
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jGHURkEyS
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJUNGzSrK2
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFEvKUXMBS
「鈴兒……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvv2biKLGs
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUnnbZ4Wpo
「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。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyuYIT6h3y
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpTYkM6Xnv
「你真係無事？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmMUTNDe9l
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirFj0pLAAS
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczWGRNaDi1
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQWRUQHGZP
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltMLQ7x0o4
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgJQrXh09T
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdbFbFoD03
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLx5ali7PdN
「明……明白。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDyuyI8i6g
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaGU7Py026
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！388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKiKBxoS2T
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPccQTEkF4
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ii1teFd4A
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1f5SMszF1g
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEMVUOrbN6
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKM3aPMkAJK
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnndxpYis0z
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zpk2hAnVG
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbttNDwGkTQ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAQWmHY049
「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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrst5zWJU6
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgLfshxSyM
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6HMPf2RdX
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccoZG4pNE1
「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。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXJdN2xSRM
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBgKeJnz4B
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKB2pGoEQI
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZIGLPs0BD
「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。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdmHTkiM7T
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFxwjM1QGJ
「好。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vEZtbl6cB
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAj0NB8xBn
沙漏中的沙被停下。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfBB9UxVu6
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2YxrOMu4Z
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYNE6s38iP
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX43W214mv
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0ODX7hkXN
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7BO3J9sT6
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBceYmeMPto
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rHIQhzt3y
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDsC1eZ6F7
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJkHahY5PQ
「呃……呃……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5nOC8JQL8
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcg6Ggdpp6d
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSXZNakVkY
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhggNq9cfa
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAlkPqxNxZ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nAAGIsie9
「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。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpYROi5Afb
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGJYBxuUGg
「……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoWvbOIAjE
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6k4MXkETW
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2H1YcCEhNH
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wb9JipNve
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabSMdPRsog
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrj9ODET6H
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5muxrtf9W
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLPnpQoXX6
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanh1G9oy2s
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKp4xC7MUc
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Zm7hSauKX
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1E3jzrL3Zl
假如鈴兒是錯的。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu68RCr2WcX
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiCYVYEAWf
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU89OccvYJ
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfFMJXzS1X
「……你咩意思？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYJ4UPmj0J
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg01ZOXGNmB
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？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeTbdBqkVv
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTO8boLWiQ
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQ8GfgdR5T
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4eVXqtQvO
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibatL7gRH6
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzM5mVB2ff1
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7Wxflclri
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSO5eczwgX
「阡迴之門？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zs56TPbwn
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhx1RTAtPd
「跟我嚟。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6y2H4jUqg
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxPPXE3qwN
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe96tQHvMe
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljblt6r30C
「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。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpXwMPDKkr
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKDVIclU9F
「叮…叮……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ct2TLGhVm
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZa2R4EfkBb
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJc3Ncr4OA
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmf03jqPKMJ
「就會咁。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY15A8EByS
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSi2DcfcRF
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBD4t6KP2S
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGZujZsBPn
「係阡迴旅館？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBjCO2fIzm
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqssQSJXH8y
「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。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRHGkh83ML
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4S2bkSvld
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGQ8rgMmId
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu20wG34bEj
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3J9Lyl8YW
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yv8ZxVvNs
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qeMoU0hZb
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDiyFDjWlW
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpDryNicT5r
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGPWCfGvKK
沒有回去常世的未來。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCGA9sqLb5
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoS4J80DaQ
「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！」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnZnBDtSzG
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9qNBitdIT
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkvoIhjOzB
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjWHfhauaF
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIRp8wKT4u
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡym2gGpbGE7
可是，卻——388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboatCwjMIY
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5EfaK8oXN
「無。」鈴兒說。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsFQ8qIFe5
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYmm1lRgFJ
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaLn5uBAkt
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZHrFbMKRc
「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。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJPz9b2VKA
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzIWIC6JO6
「真心咩……」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVBbfZqoYd
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVOkUCyDTV
「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？」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6kzmhOfwj
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcWHuquoiZ
我一時間答不出來。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVz5n51U4de
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr1CxJSYOM
回家？當然了，我想回家。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjS6W4iylI
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuROoMqYxBF
但之後呢？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkXriDxN8t
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qBnZ9Ns0H
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？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegEA2f8pRW
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDceFf0eo7
我甚麼也不會成為的。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHAYOnvZJC
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5Ob3BMfSw
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？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgpObJIRZv
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHq47ESYduR
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIPLoq6Xbo
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiYdMU7Fli
「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。」388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEy3N79FM4i
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPA62ELh8V
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6878efIqaq
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6zvG0Z2tj
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr8CWb9oL9
388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuW8uMueKHZ
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。388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlqXMwqwRJ
