「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFaZuyuaiO
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrK5mAawPR4
「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？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGRQX5VzKJ
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImfD6qRTKM
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx4VaU1DyJ
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdodLyo8dc
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjFNjEtzrf
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv0VPFVdyb
「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。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlNGKTCKxA
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHUAsjKeR0
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ENCT9tyn8
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PtngJAX0l
卻使我心頭一震！223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfOgbwx7sQ
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFnrqBO1Id
「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。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw20Nnlbds
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NWTqrYNa3
甚麼解鈴之人。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQsI9S8w6f
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbE11NbCgxl
「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？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwX8P0bmtd
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEqU1uuzcB
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrZQNAaJFL
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3A8Ic55dZE
「我無。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivDBqN5ZhS
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbBXn0zcPX
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuvzkfiyXd
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8KwkT6owQ
「鈴兒……」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQJuqOb1AD
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ576p1BHwMV
「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。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcAaYZmz4R
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJMtyBGF09
「你真係無事？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleSOIszcop
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkZOy2keFj
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvASS7S8CrD
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnGandHidd
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQWMvXkHRv
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94j225CArg
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxQqMNzE52
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUfWslsTJa
「明……明白。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIji0BXd9zc
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hNDbokmw0
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！223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNiy60AIsl3
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTToAs4GuWx
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZmECrsZ7j
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEM99DE8sI
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡerQgfNUhOJ
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxjYVyvcIs
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENCyxjZ1rV
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkbJy2jaF6
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoHdth49RV
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8HAxlRhTu
「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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVXNK7aNTa
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJB9hmLFW5
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDICzsxURI
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpl8dzRUIlU
「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。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SsTK2HRrd
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6WJOlVwdM
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OfkMHQryo
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirT7lAXo7M
「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。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8X7KQ7pNFt
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPja48ukIz
「好。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNM3CcACX6
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5dKbeh7Ab
沙漏中的沙被停下。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzYD1oKGh9
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdB3YrouFn
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4oz9pKCQi
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvNzSZY83A
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdQVPktIKc
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEUt9BK2Vu
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFR8feHjl9
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7uD0CYyT7
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5aECYn1D9
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vl7km7sX9
「呃……呃……」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjD0DopCOmU
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdezaEk7SD
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHuo2rRygD
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4uHfz2F3R
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XQ7YdD1lV
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbu7Z9KeHyB
「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。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYhsuE4tZk
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpALYKo9tN
「……」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7bv9pQI7h
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPI6CYNn46
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZhxX1ax22
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTfXvpsZgJ
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61L1N3kvD6
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGo6iKIfUpc
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNm989dCXfM
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnB94Z4XhNF
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzMxHAYj90
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64669rBLAc
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDL6I3R1QT
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvqedQ1y11
假如鈴兒是錯的。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqm4mMBL2w
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE5do6cRR8
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhdRZWzKiW
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFXvtf5Svl
「……你咩意思？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfNYv7aeWJ
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7knz0qg16
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？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlENBuF7S72
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO014guHjP
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcY6Jq5vVvZ
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz341OYQttT
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRjtcxixCb
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBI0XPreHCE
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqysNlfXNup
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLYuqfm9VG
「阡迴之門？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfgZIFrmRu
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77pxUFl8Kc
「跟我嚟。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpEvbwrkjj
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZw2n1uBhCL
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcvCsvuwxv
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtC9CEjMS1z
「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。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUDR2yQhwW
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7OkD11LtN
「叮…叮……」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpU1CRv3z3u
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LO5DTpHdQ
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BklEKWdCA
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCZIHW4LN7
「就會咁。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCsA4nPZD4
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndYIA19paF
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JgvxYzrSR
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbGmBRkh7c
「係阡迴旅館？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHqdLQ7E5A
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4qNAywsUf
「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。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7oRDq3nxN
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoJeTrFbHP
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYrtbTE8xpS
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rr05CbL2D
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrIgj407wV
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hkXXEFFty
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qSkfQh4iS
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd2VhAY28d
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuY9KP2iUKa
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvPZX2120L
沒有回去常世的未來。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID1CecbLKY
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJXpazRtFo
「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！」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKONltja7e5
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrAzaYY16A
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyZLpKlMqH
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQ3qmWzJsG
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK72pTKnGeK
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgubfKXIdfM
可是，卻——223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTs6ViEkP4
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ntDug0GMB
「無。」鈴兒說。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyhMOKMlHn
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NpQUQTTh6
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwoTcVdlb8T
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQXpmBPCe6
「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。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqLNy2juhB
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgE8Y80MsW
「真心咩……」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0zCEbpLD5
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ348pDBLyOO
「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？」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxYoKETI29
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMEUupyc29
我一時間答不出來。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlCOkDQ9rR
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtwCuDMRAq
回家？當然了，我想回家。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPuOknSrNa
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRTbRDYwWw
但之後呢？223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfA2n2yzZK
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAB4hgxKwh0
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？223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTJFocOtPG
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnh3HfYcRDg
我甚麼也不會成為的。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3CwW0ExSp
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzh7MDA20DO
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？223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwP9CspBHF
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAecFcsxubm
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoW5ajuoavm
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnemJJdcCs
「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。」223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyq0LsTm1n
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfEe2eVxKX
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToRilrn8av
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOwObNIaUd
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1sGy9RvGY
223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6apQRLSrn
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。223Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1hspZ1upP
