愛莉的真名自然不是愛莉，如她所言她是個攝影師。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAVd29uya8
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJalko7PN9h
但準確來說，是前攝影師。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3gGle2TYl
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9heuUIsRQ
「全職做攝影師而養得活自己嘅人唔多……好可惜，愛莉唔係其中之一。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGmgns8NIv
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06srX2Ajr6
鈴兒帶我來到了天井下的接待處，從抽屜中拿出一張相片，上面都是鈴兒和大家在阡迴旅館中的日常照。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW44p2gUoMS
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOjE1x3YEz
雖然不是甚麼美輪美奐的服飾背景，但從構圖，光影，看得出愛莉精準地捕捉了大家的身姿。笑著的鈴兒，彼此碰杯的阿力與阿倫，伏在鈴兒胸前撒嬌的渺渺……愛莉的相片之中滲透著日常感，看畢後有種心中暖洋洋的感覺。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRsQNYKq28
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58Epq99rNE
「好靚係唔係？」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVcseIXywn
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogUlRJatyf
我看著相片中的鈴兒說：「嗯，好靚。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgBRinpDyo
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0vESEEW1l
「愛莉嘅影相技術無異係真材實料，但係想喺香港做一個全職攝影師實在太難，唉。」鈴兒嘆一口氣道，「所以佢亦無辦法，只有向現實低頭，做返會計。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWORg8Qho1
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlkCwm3aHt
「吓，會計？咁咪完全唔關事……」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxf1VKnak1
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCMgdDZOym
「嗯，仲無晒私人時間添。」鈴兒說，「佢係某晚OT到凌晨，忍唔住話落街買咖啡，結果走咗去天星碼頭旁邊忍唔住對住個海喊。又唔想返上去寫字樓，又唔可以一走了之，因為要靠份工生活……」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nnHyWBHc2
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk2GRWQjtgy
我輕咬下唇：「我好明白……大家生活都唔易。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs85OOWynDN
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aYCGea7Ks
「但佢真係好鐘意影相，咁嘅生活……佢根本無返去嘅理由。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTW5vgAGvl
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZIZqPZKjW
「返去嘅理由…」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03F8Dl9GBG
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJ6JmwpUa6
「之後係大廈入面蕩失路，搵唔到升降機大堂，行出大廈只見到阡迴旅館，愛莉就係咁樣嚟到呢度。」鈴兒說。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwT5uuqKs2
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBuwRfNaXa
我搖頭道：「唔怪得佢唔想返去，係度佢可以盡情影相，又唔使擔心生計，我係佢都唔走。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYwlOyD4Ch
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSKY90dxQm
「當然，但問題就係呢度：留係阡迴旅館之中，無論留幾耐都好，佢永遠無可能成為真正嘅攝影師。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGBZgYI0Ge
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMSHU8BOGq
我心中一沉。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhzgtnwQWN
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3mcUDu96e
因為我意識到阡迴旅館的限制了。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAKQhIvVAQ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXueIGA56r0
這兒沒有時間流動，雖然我們不會老去不會疲累，但也意味著在阡迴旅館中沒有成為更好版本自己的可能。阡迴旅館內時間是停滯的，所以人生也會定格在這兒。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdlPiRvS1G
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmre934nufc
只要留在這兒，愛莉永遠沒法成為攝影師。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvssDNYDtXy
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe557dT7Lx
只要留在這兒，我也永遠沒法……357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UYdhKI1HO
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdr5Yzg9pze
「唔好意思，遲咗。」旁邊的門打開，愛莉穿過門到達大堂。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AEtYUPena
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡambyVdDtxi
「唔緊要，係我同阿柏早咗到。反正我地呢度唔缺時間啦。」鈴兒馬上擺出開朗的樣子，果然在這笑容下是一顆體貼，溫柔的細膩內心。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JrFQCx5U5
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2MnnXGOqm
「我始終想再睇多次。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5WAE8O3MQ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dLCQnOV2C
「睇幾多次都可以喔。」鈴兒說，「嚟，我邊行邊講你知，阿柏。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSsn87XWctK
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0EZHuCUbS
「哦…哦好！」我唯唯諾諾跟上。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhZZ5uenB9
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVM5W4xLgr7
按鈴兒剛剛所說，她就是要使用名為「阡迴之門」的權能，通往時間和平行宇宙…？357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRyWibntZC
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsB6T9d09d
甚麼跟甚麼。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQ3wxtzKNy
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9Sq0rOB7b
「阡迴旅館係所有道路嘅交匯之處，即使係唔同時間線嘅平行宇宙都包括在內。身為職員嘅我，就係要負責為住客打開阡迴之門，令佢地搵到返去嘅動機同地方。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBGX5ezufv
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHra4GlkdGU
這時我突然發現鈴兒修長的玉掌結出了一個手印。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQUzOfCbmF
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobStfO79N3
「例如——」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBFmdwuahv
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWFUurXZqD
隨她優雅的腰姿擺動往前走，鈴兒腳下的地板突然如泛起漣漪般輕晃，她別著的風鈴髮飾奏鳴出清脆的聲音。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLAdhXYDaP
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YUqgyEKCH
「叮鈴……叮鈴……」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrArg3dKgkN
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD89Oh3eCq
鈴兒閉上眼，如同傾聽著風鈴在天井之中激起的迴音。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VwUVoWdGQ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdZZ4R51IA
「嗯，行呢邊。」鈴兒張開眼回首微笑，然後信步往迴音最為深厚的角落走去。的確很明顯聽得到迴音從這邊傳來，原來風鈴是用來定位的方法。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrUbIIw4ma
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpVE796DVk
我們穿過天井下的大堂，迴音的殘響言猶在耳，天井化成巨大的共鳴箱，每隔幾步殘響都會再次掠過中庭，提醒我們前進的方向。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1VlZA7S3y
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLey14MXDV
「你睇呢道門。」鈴兒說。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEL6SSGh4g
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Q1GK9Ea7I
「Hall 2B？」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIuvBzfdNv
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdvMehgZ2c
這門的風格與阡迴旅館的室內設計格格不入，金屬邊框加上噴砂銅面相當歐式，門柄還是木雕花的長形原木，能看到木紋在凹凸浮雕上起伏。在門的正中央，以秀麗的英文寫上「Hall 2B」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoonKvFaR5
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MD0mt8gvG
「阡迴之門會複製出目的地嘅一扇門，之後穿過去就可以到達目的地。」鈴兒按著門把，「準備好？」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmJF2ztiJh
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfF7FMJVt7
我點點頭：「嗯。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNwOYJoIom
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5qGunhvlQ
「唔係問你喇阿柏，我問緊愛莉。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRLHB6VKJa
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRygxydFkca
愛莉失笑：「我準備好。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjW2wKXUJq
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiy4HkBYdRF
甚麼嘛，她還是會笑的。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAYEsp7Mob
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXYDQ5HwST
「嘎——」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6pAl74Jlo
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3A3UNv2FNG
鈴兒推開阡迴之門，我們三人魚貫地通過，門的後方竟然不是阡迴旅館的任何一個空間，而是一個宴會現場！357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYrg8vaTuQ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtGa9siAkc
「呢度……！」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PBO3Zn7AJ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGO3TSCg6O
舞台前方大排筵席，人們都衣香鬢影，一桌又一桌的大圓桌旁坐著各國籍的各色人種，但他們都穿得相當體面，男的穿西裝燕尾服，女的穿晚裝裙子。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx61AtBnHTL
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEe0Hgh5rCf
啊糟糕了雖然未搞清這是怎麼回事，但我穿著很舒服但絕不適合這兒的鬆身外套和運動褲……357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8XgjUdE8x
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxww78wrO2h
「咦？」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsYyt7oLNL
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7N7rNIlKx
低頭一看，我身上不知何時都換上了寶藍色的西裝和皮鞋。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzS6LgClZts
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA06sGRMWVE
「幾襯你啊，阿柏。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRWla9yEoD
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObDjKfUT9B
「多謝……你地都…我地幾時換埋衫？」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3GLUffkB1
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitBbMydaqV
鈴兒穿上了酒紅色的長尾晚裝裙，高根鞋上的黑絲襪與晚裝長手襪互相呼應，而愛莉就穿上了橙色的晚裝裙加上優雅的長披肩。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjSO1wO1AA
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCFsNxqHpi
「始終係嚟呢種場合嘛。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMUxWAWq4y
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEi6IA8i9zE
我回首看看剛才穿過的門，剛好有一名侍者穿門而出，可以看到門後已經變回了酒店金碧輝煌的大堂，絕非古色古香的阡迴旅館。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2fBYeuWll
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLkjrzP3Nq
「呢度係……」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gr9aZmxHR
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm51nKxuUqb
環顧四周，我馬上看到舞台上的英文標題：世界新聞攝影基金會頒獎典禮，這倒算了，但最嚇人的是後面的年份。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT5A8x3x7C
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOkAIdUco0
「等陣先！個年份係唔係寫錯？！」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpWV2Jj02V
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3o2zmafiW3
鈴兒說：「年份無寫錯，呢度係未來，應該話係多如恆河沙數無數個未來之中嘅其中一個。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm87DersmyZ
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtwM0ts0mI
「世界新聞攝影比賽，係世界上其中一個最重要嘅攝影比賽，同美國嘅普立茲獎齊名。但係後者主要係美國人先可以參加，所以……呢度可以話係攝影記者嘅殿堂。」愛莉雙眼閃閃發亮。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhhTrhd6L6
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkri9Tx3Td
「各位先生女士，請大家就座，好快我地今晚嘅典禮就會正式開始。」舞台上出現同樣穿著西裝的主持人，他以英文發言，附近的人聞言也紛紛和正在聊天聚首的人暫時別過，然後坐回自己的座位上。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMh17xppcMU
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSeI7V2Tki
就在那瞬間，我看到了。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6vSe30E14
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzopYIk9sd2
主舞台前方的一張圓桌旁，一個女士與男伴坐下。那女士不是誰，正是我們身邊的愛莉！但是看年紀似乎年長些許，旁邊那個男人與她也表現親密，無名指上的婚戒……是他的丈夫！357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxJywmKJDh
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXZDvjaIB8
這就是鈴兒口中說的「未來」！357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShgobqNs8P
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopp6BrIyIw
「鈴兒，我地坐邊？」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCjkgkpxay
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVmLciPg06
這種場合都是預先分配好座位的吧，我們身為從阡迴旅館而來的人怎麼辦？357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAmcGUxpCB
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLDjU5veoK
「我地行呢邊。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrX6RoFzl0
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02lMZRGvuT
鈴兒領著我們逆人潮而上，賓客回到舞台前的座位，我們離舞台而遠去，如同逆著時間流而上一樣。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSAoadfGd0
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQWPT2OdWV
就在我們再次穿門而過前。我卻看到那兒年長的愛莉正回首看著我們的方向！357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpv4IkRAqYa
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkz9T9nIha
「嘎——」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8gd5LQKKR
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WeKdletom
穿過大門，我們卻沒有回到阡迴旅館，而是回到了同一個宴會廳！357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQ50OFSa6j
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8PNqZxTPo
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAImHDJ4Mp
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqjZMuORTD
這邊的年長愛莉衣服變了，身邊的丈夫也換了一個人！357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwJsRdVrgS
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMabjWQr5Xi
「呢度已經係另一個平行宇宙。」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEMjyLfFZm
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwX6FX9vOWH
鈴兒繼續前進，剛好我們這邊的門旁邊有著另一扇門，我們馬上又鑽進去。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7yzD5H5c6
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20UlPkjU3q
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQGSIiMfUB
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5D7K7yxzF
年長愛莉的衣服再次改變，身邊變成了一個較年青的男生。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMB4QgMKXL
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKIfV4pwCK
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcWtnGYXmw
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8KEyLk0Wt
每次穿過門，舞台旁邊的愛莉其打扮都會有些許不同，或是頭髮長了，或是晚裝變了款式，或是頸飾的長度不同，而她身邊的同伴也會男女老幼變個不停，其中一次最離譜是她肩膊上繼續坐著一隻鸚鵡。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3b6ktjLwr
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhCHsWg8FN
但唯有那一句不變。357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeCKTCBUmx
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveNwFWeV2B
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNp27dv5PX4
357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5yvJFNsIb
終於我們停下腳步，駐足於這個平行宇宙之中。
