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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfJEsnwryz

「啲人呢……」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvw4W7P4xL
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEUF64kOzj
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCl92bV0B0
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIrJeZb84r
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！！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9AO1vQtqv
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlLZU7MdCA
「……係……度……啊……」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85eL1qgsT3
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdziiQYN7d
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！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5PMhYwSE7
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4amGGDWnzz
沒有，沒有，沒有！！門後沒有阡迴旅館！我被困在平行宇宙了？！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVhwLLjYwJ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcIOSvu7R7
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！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXkO88nN5n
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXI4ZDeVBJP
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！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4VMURbw7Y
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuBy20zKRW
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？419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9g2aLSgft
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUJXGwNKBv
「喵～」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzgSDSjL2U

「渺…渺渺？！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsOsrxa8zI
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRqg868K6y
頹然坐在地上抱頭的我，卻突然聽到貓叫聲。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOBuPb7WMe
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2X8FuT2tW
「叮鈴…」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgr723IUr7I
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZLtTDIWIR
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？！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUznKErcaEk
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzp7K0C4tA
「渺渺？！你係邊啊！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVqvNS9Ldk
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kCKUQIMCq
我站起來東張西望，卻始終沒法鎖定渺渺的方向。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUSQKH2W0w
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYJQjtKFqN
走廊盡頭有人！！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnJorjACCy
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2ga2J3Hze
「……小姐！等陣！！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtSXIQOhyl
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRPgnWnLFG
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！！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJ6lfsaewL
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsCeC42tJO
「等陣！！求下你，停一停！！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgpGT3HoyM
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06PWu5lhf5
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！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBPwMcSper
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoakjvYZcdt
不能……我不能停下腳步！這樣會被身後的虛空追上……419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2JT6ec2Jr
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOC6dWNdOp
等等，那人是！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLdiJlMFg5
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65CCu6oFQN
「鈴兒！！我係度啊！！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwVfgK9jAO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXuuCqhqnm
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！！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3OEOjYmXc
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52EGvTa37y
「等埋我…求下你…唔好連你都扔低我……夏！鈴！兒！！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdW1ZKs22L
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYCQJ4FjrY

「哎呀！嗚…」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuly6rMX2Z
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhNc6SFuyK
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！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhhuJ02WMP
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKF3Rpg29K
「……我識得你？」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6QTsYfLc8
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngxFaKV96i
咦？419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNu6mDc0xIV
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLax0losjsu
等……等，哪兒來的門？我在哪兒？419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyTMuiKnAE
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4t1SkLRXaO
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEgaHr77Eo
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBPHBArfKR
一看便知這是醫院。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NJWS8Hwr6
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNWMwUImeO
「鈴…鈴兒…我頭先…嗄…你聽我講，真係嚇死我…」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmOsKyt5pg
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzuHiBANng
「先生，我地唔識對方，就請唔好直接叫我個名。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaEP6nCtvI
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7FIK9qKwA
眼前的鈴兒，極之冰冷。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJGwk452Jd
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovnU1AqomY
「但係……」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXZFznxVyvW
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Gw6VRg3Rr
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup6aIPGNGv
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenpJHmqWWN
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxkuyckl0tP
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bY5sBIOr1
「我返去做野先。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJW7OBGz9c9
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKqmby82PA
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdVy1iqvJb
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3fE35YmCo
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？419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQMG4MlU1g
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6m1J6f5QgY
但馬上我就看出端倪了。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSRtck6Lck
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRoGA4hfAz
無論是那邊那個醫生手上拿著的摺式手機。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3X7iyNlmum
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yE98ycKuE
還是在角落中放著的顯像管「大牛龜」顯像管電視。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSyCIOdGle
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB9xqJBt1P
這兒不是未來，不是現在，不是平行宇宙，更加不是阡迴旅館。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzdcy1NOW5
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpebFBNJZAS
這是過去，鈴兒成為阡迴旅館職員前的過去。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79JOrfjcF4
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkvtqbSy3G
［13座 西翼4/F］419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU8dFcMqDE
［安寧病房］
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtkLxoMBFl
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJLji8GTl3
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlcW5s9lb2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sTs1xPeqX
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nMnjv9RYH
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTg21RSgHP
我知道甚麼是安寧病房。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHw6VRDRv9
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciXfW7w7jj
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWadL8nOehz
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrwYGbDODS
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtH9OOtCzOL
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41kEe8W36X
「……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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qgDbV1liN
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyh0xX2nnat
「明白。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5mpAfJv81
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTY5kaj96j
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSidFfyeur
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQItbr0pw9D
好冰冷，她的表情。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITm3DGOfFK
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXfIboIkVn
好陌生，她的身影。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQjxdVvZfX
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0V6T3hiCH
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。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrD4CBckAWx
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPcVuBLQ97
「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。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6bHqtmFvO
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVQsv8HdqF
「等陣，聽日入住嘅新病人，點解……無資料？」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw6TXgObBC
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jaYLo0ZsW
「除左夏姑娘之外，大家都出返去做野先。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlbYJYmTDo
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjrTeTo0lf
「係。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9N8boCNgEm
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wJyhGhnmM
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxcuLUZfee
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBjjQWCZ6U
「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。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdlm5Fpe9k
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIvUChaPw5
「好。」鈴兒簡短地點頭。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JaPAqkUO2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSkKb5YGyP
「你就唔問下點解要搞到咁神秘？」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDD8J87WN2
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuPgPMwbvB
「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。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPB6zmigGF
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDZ71VDNq3
「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。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgpbpHCD8E
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZLN7YCwaw
「咁原因係咩？」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHt5MM5MmR7
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXnp1Tye6t
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……」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvPdimgcjf
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDZVuo94O7
「喵！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhW6TDbadT
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8sXymauKd
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？！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpvRzF4BCs
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh39YEfr0Km
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！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8TnRPHaQu
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfH7nDMF2r
「渺渺，等埋我！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzb0que70O
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQf0rC9Aif
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！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJ3Rsd4szN
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcObJjSDf0
「渺渺！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0exoxHMLNT
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcDIA5ylGd
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！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3XJmW4XAE
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFiFHgcgdW
「渺渺！嘁……真係，肥成咁點解可以跑得咁快！？」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jeL6eTyC3
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8q5RuNKJVw
「喵哈？！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQrQbm3BZT
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGbjpspysA
在走廊盡頭的牠聽到似乎有點生氣，但還是在那兒等著我。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26g3IgjXfE
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyMDhxfNCa
急步追上的我才一拐過那個角落——419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOUHEFVxfT
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoMxKW4U9j
「叮……叮……」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngVXw8UUZV
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuv7yCq8eVM
風鈴聲，在幽閉的走廊中迴盪。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFg2SfrkUQp
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXDssdvdIT
「…嗄…呼…」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Hx3UHwBYz
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLs46pFFo0d
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqwibNAa6u
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKb5osfaT2t
風鈴聲，來自阡迴旅館。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauwEXnMALV
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd6iZnLu7p
「叮……叮……」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTINPHBH4Lv
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgXiZ1ouJB
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIrtHRbqd1
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIQzsamdpW
找到了！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Xhyf5mh1w
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMJq42uRxl
「喵！」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6xHWNglD0
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GligdWcvh
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！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvS6pLANSjl
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEiY7rZdDu
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfbiGh0fzu
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3T2mK6TD5s
回來……回來了！419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeIkbDf7Ep
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikcBS0DEx1
「呼…呼…」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlgmUtmLy9
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NSqXPeywN
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8oxIrDqIF
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RI88FIUwz
「返嚟啦，溫年柏。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6lH9QCK4t
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8I8YFk6d2
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。419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3LKJtgeLZ
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnIDd8BMEL
「你係……」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKSgS1KAQv
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNrbLnl7X9
「熟人。」419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknjFMVyAM3
419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFtf59KFxQ
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。
