愛莉的真名自然不是愛莉，如她所言她是個攝影師。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1L5fAnRE5K
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCZ5ojchZT
但準確來說，是前攝影師。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowtlg8XWyt
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrw1ic6RsbK
「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。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbKIdEIUyz
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLYpZsHDof
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB8HgmS2EQ
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsVPP3sc6B
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegzJ2MbvEv
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOlMcAQIIP
「好靚係唔係？」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXPCQUd4ny
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7J2gO5S1x6
我看著相片中的鈴兒說：「嗯，好靚。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rtZ9uXD0z
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IILAD3Loi
「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。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ubZlOx9uc
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnGav9vO3K
「吓，會計？咁咪完全唔關事……」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZA2k2vmbVN
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1DhrPlFid
「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……」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Gwdkx5vDl
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVPxbDKdLO
我輕咬下唇：「我好明白……大家生活都唔易。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5l4bR0FuDD
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZsKCHMSmg
「但佢真係好鐘意影相，咁嘅生活……佢根本無返去嘅理由。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTQCkJNFkw
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksfKYAkRQT
「返去嘅理由…」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtElndo6o3I
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovpPluOb0m
「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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLp9r0LMLPw
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBtOAWpvb4
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。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LAmJ36HMe
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADhrSDBKPl
「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。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBd1lU2is7J
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcY0JRcbZX
我心中一沉。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcww44gh59R
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZJ9nhcWjs
因為我意識到阡迴旅館的限制了。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3Ix384sU8
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6xoQ2pRkj
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCf1cDl2cm0
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPro4cVvtY
只要留在這兒，愛莉永遠沒法成為攝影師。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGufPTU4ceq
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvw8jmt8CQ
只要留在這兒，我也永遠沒法……458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSh8u45Hl0
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOWLEDEo4N
「唔好意思，遲咗。」旁邊的門打開，愛莉穿過門到達大堂。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSA4Sl3e2PV
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBly8OQLcg
「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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VcKJYg9zK
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0jm8XiCH1
「我始終想再睇多次。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiZOkw94cP
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjW9YrRT5EO
「睇幾多次都可以喔。」鈴兒說，「嚟，我邊行邊講你知，阿柏。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfYVSKnNuI
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUL1pKDyOa
「哦…哦好！」我唯唯諾諾跟上。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BEuNmKJW1
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtmE8JVFyR
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…？458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVjZQ17wxj
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6rfo1Rkha
甚麼跟甚麼。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuWI6eWUFr
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡim1kjH7ZgP
「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。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxuJXIAB91L
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2a5hULPqr
這時我突然發現鈴兒修長的玉掌結出了一個手印。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGsDTfUkU1
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzcN443fVA
「例如——」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuLRRgxvhp
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkr75fNMN9
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeW2ITUvjv3
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgZNYOOObS
「叮鈴……叮鈴……」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsHLyEJXPa
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zdX8Nr9XD
鈴兒閉上眼，如同傾聽著風鈴在天井之中激起的迴音。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuKt062y0k
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFvR8L211v
「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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBm5N2z9ek
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPphbVMmtYK
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gr5QMklvN
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5XA4n6hIT
「你睇呢道門。」鈴兒說。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i5fHmxvtv
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BS8NmTj0M
「Hall 2B？」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5pz9elvld
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWBe8xW3Bm
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」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbam74kIhWd
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnMp6uLeCn
「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？」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UfVLGjqQg
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFlyreLNxC
我點點頭：「嗯。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8HRtlCLJN
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3XdZuIHT4
「唔係問你喇阿柏，我問緊愛莉。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZtqygxkIP
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpQGahqR9F
愛莉失笑：「我準備好。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrgP2jsPBb
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2D2cGTpC7c
甚麼嘛，她還是會笑的。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkd13D3I7iH
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIw79KpzbbF
「嘎——」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEIZXYqMw2
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7mlQomxlD
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！458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlW8KnhuaK
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFxfQVM8qY
「呢度……！」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlbyxbW6yS
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdbqUL6blS
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUIPJn2Fe6
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEGo8K1WkJ
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……458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoOzrRPAkxD
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaP5eHq3Y8V
「咦？」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDt6j54KPsT
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDigmxGZD65
低頭一看，我身上不知何時都換上了寶藍色的西裝和皮鞋。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1hDS0tAxx
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPARH2B4mwH
「幾襯你啊，阿柏。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnDOZkEYqQ
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3sWiPG8QP
「多謝……你地都…我地幾時換埋衫？」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnr6MRZGG6y
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoZNYqhDZ6
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFmYDVcdKd
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskSroBmX6C
「始終係嚟呢種場合嘛。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8R3V94CFWT
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJ220FfVxs
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKeaPfoyks
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqqsTtAJwM
「呢度係……」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMJplDkPZU
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGsqC0jX9l
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUTRDxF335
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOM8seq1W3
「等陣先！個年份係唔係寫錯？！」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBrgGsOw39
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RDIAezkfm
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。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yISvswPCo
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqEIiLp99K
「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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJRcwWpIR1
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyNt1cj7lv
「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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSVhUhACDb
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAreOnZKAq
就在那瞬間，我看到了。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDft1XLB3Vs
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyY2CRrLOAI
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！458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB4NX4SDV7
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGo2Eq2MH1K
這就是鈴兒口中說的「未來」！458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCx9vFB8l1d
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOepMCNRtTI
「鈴兒，我地坐邊？」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTnJ0BTP2I
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEY5oC2ktI
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？458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QiX9Wmu7E
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN4BG4nELC
「我地行呢邊。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneEI97EPdA
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMC2Z2VWbA
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpv0tXCYfZB
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGpj2k56Aa
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！458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpgzf7Dwpm
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCZuggSNsp
「嘎——」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59y6ktfWv4
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4jQPidVkz
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！458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IpcNp90Hf
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfeTi6aQal
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXBN6tbAnd
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cDAHIfYLI
這邊的年長愛莉衣服變了，身邊的丈夫也換了一個人！458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSyHec5w4g
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBOWpHKIIg
「呢度已經係另一個平行宇宙。」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcyOImCSZr
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWVVekIAVS
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcktk0AQ61A
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgRYewl17b
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaXT20fe4E
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡul8hoKt8RF
年長愛莉的衣服再次改變，身邊變成了一個較年青的男生。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn5G6omJWm
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmafzXGocOE
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy1snCokxM
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjSHrrWm9n
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。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Di8nySUeI
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQp5Fzg8Zo
但唯有那一句不變。458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUmzgyEx07
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGk4cVwBCs
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafbIfvUB5d
458Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkWZKrq6lZ
終於我們停下腳步，駐足於這個平行宇宙之中。
