「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzL8gEExgC
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeRrvAdgaJ
「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？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8LONYHFra7
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZzWsq1AVt
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4tW3LJKCh
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WeGmz2Gem
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8B2X7ZBIOB
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIGEL1dnVK
「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。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmnDVUpkV1
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7ZdQ66Euz
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84o6zy2cPX
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCN9NPYDeK
卻使我心頭一震！277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAUGjB9GFS
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkQ03DiO9Z
「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。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLqG3zZ5uH
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4j52HpByI2
甚麼解鈴之人。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wsZjuxFwP
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJIHOtgl9i
「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？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuZHkLQOr6
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCKTCxshps
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHMebGAzqs
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1dZ45bKw8
「我無。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxf8vP7X3t
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80oJKxkMWZ
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdvxxhTEwn
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo74NvVmRS7
「鈴兒……」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8iKqbPW91f
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6qRGIoXic
「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。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdZRZmDDH7
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaHGecg0iu
「你真係無事？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyOlhdyyLL
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvzlw9zBoy
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR9yxFRlpB
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjL7TGyFsfH
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkD4Rao3feZ
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOam0hBKaJS
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHL3SS0owkd
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GpCffOFmX
「明……明白。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCCirHptt4
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYl7c8rUIg
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！277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGFD6bfgye
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRq4HlA5D43
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmYMZlHLSK
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoKYqc8AGY
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRo0yZK3Sr
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7L4Lw0u1G
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNRoQn9hO8
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GEApUHniC
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThvvxLZ43e
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwycJi0BwZE
「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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11Qbf3d9U7
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTk1ufS1gw
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBynv5Ne4h
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILjbLKD8DK
「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。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LFznrUuhP
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3WVy3UtlW
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvs3lOcz30
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqAjWBmjDy
「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。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1HQbhRZPi
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjZbWkptoU
「好。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjEBYUJm8i
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrdmYfFaM9
沙漏中的沙被停下。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyH534JRRNw
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMdZovYals
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxdodXDeHG
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmt5uR0yjf
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzerLqNQSs
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqOnEsF25z
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyI2QgiQOQJ
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuMasy4zg5
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HkuwKjdbq
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YOL840Mqy
「呃……呃……」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHfh4iiKib
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYjRj8GHKu
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevAUCDUDkj
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFeCLtBSjGF
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftKcz4dRls
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslbWYqGrs1
「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。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tED5HhKmV
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUv9MDJZjBY
「……」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8T4A9xUE0m
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0QnNnhCnA
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBRJ2PiQqP
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaG3xMvvQm
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGZgQk7Rrf
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxl19lMKv9
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1peKSNg5y0
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQgycRXvyU
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgg5V67KXL
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQj6tHvwPjI
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeh5ozzosZb
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGK8LQk0xR
假如鈴兒是錯的。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3PmmCQuHE
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1djujEiX4
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLue9FSole
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74LUs0vcxR
「……你咩意思？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWR6HevzaRY
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdH4oB52Crg
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？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLjdKfgoL8
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdUnaEPahs
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUTosgirj0
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yT90YOT4c
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9eEcXLaDL
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSerUc8E5D
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dcgYAzmid
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZ9PXxJhqk
「阡迴之門？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLUCSzWbIt
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IEYQU0CRX
「跟我嚟。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gwFFv6SEt
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJAdjpoTP3
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxekTlDhi3
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMEAP4SJqD
「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。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7nE0FyVOW
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5uMNYqQOB
「叮…叮……」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBItM9zv6Rn
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡits9yOA7Fj
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgv8Qbqy25
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnj7gGVsa3q
「就會咁。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSB99g3Ayu
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUU2DaO7q5
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUdLcGwJ8U
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPbRqTHTH2
「係阡迴旅館？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wBjpRIUK3
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoKYe3rMCT
「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。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kS9QENZLs
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwinC3uhZD0
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOJ06F5dic
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuwSvXXEHg
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdji7nI2wRJ
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzg1xZbFQZ
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS1vqSFKfZ
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlBpyOLpNs
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SLFpj7EIp
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiX8Ehn55j
沒有回去常世的未來。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcS67DBcnk0
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡISlDGbjCfG
「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！」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9weJeaGhH
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnvayZhIND
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJHJTBfOEW
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13eH0pi08s
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDIK79WISa
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdD57dAV05P
可是，卻——277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPCMg5O7FQ
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAptcgod2He
「無。」鈴兒說。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfg6NBraK9
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3AFvqs1Ce
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1u7Qntcg4X
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXVtd9JfB9
「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。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeweMQSV1sP
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAQeeXczTt
「真心咩……」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKrjcPK64g
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbl8s1Dbs1W
「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？」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoS0s0T5Ynq
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wdQNVwU3K
我一時間答不出來。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXzAgLyuQ0
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9JXoOl7lW
回家？當然了，我想回家。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLouQhfOWVY
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgj0mW8GDiL
但之後呢？277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMuvxBDVk9M
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nk8G61WVd
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？277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7boFOQDv86
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFlNvTjVuT
我甚麼也不會成為的。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjd2uM8tEB
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4A8RkGx3M
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？277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZvq6rVPyw
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ5AIaqxGu
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHedzieo7RZ
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3IUt93Cwg
「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。」277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysAc0PEB7k
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrKvFRnSfb
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgnCJl1l8Y
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdH1scITVRC
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeowK6PXlcM
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfoZu4Xzov
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。277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfN6CbcyIVT
