238Please respect copyright.PENANAvwOBTv7zgP
對面的房間,有兩名守衛帶著一個女人走出來。女人愁眉苦臉,臉上還有淚痕。她是失蹤者15號。238Please respect copyright.PENANA4UO8EogCnl
238Please respect copyright.PENANABFWbDYIW0U
她跟守衛說:「不可以再重來一次嗎?」238Please respect copyright.PENANAtkozxkFVct
238Please respect copyright.PENANAvLcpnnwAfn
「你已經用完你的壽命了,一切將會如常,你將會消失於世上。」守衛冷漠的說。238Please respect copyright.PENANA39vnj6KHIB
238Please respect copyright.PENANAkEtzQ9ecfl
「昨天的不算數,再來!我要再重來一次!我不要死呀!」她突然情緒崩潰的想衝向我所在的房間。我嚇了一跳。兩名守衛在她跑了兩步後,不費吹灰之力便將她控制住,並帶走了她。他們一邊走,她便一邊大哭大叫:「我不要死呀!不要呀!」238Please respect copyright.PENANA1jqMzwQSQN
238Please respect copyright.PENANADMDriRsqSa
待聲音遠去,我便進入了只是二十步之隔的房間。238Please respect copyright.PENANAXYdIxjjWfA
238Please respect copyright.PENANAQ91H02doIS
這個是一個比較大的空間,裡面有一行行的小間隔,就像大型展覽般,共有六行,每行有八個小間隔。而每個間隔都放置了床鋪和小桌椅。238Please respect copyright.PENANAGt8YAFscJY
238Please respect copyright.PENANATsg8TzYB6J
在門旁邊有一個公共位置,放置了幾張桌椅和食物,有些健身用品和書本,轉角位有洗澡間和洗手間。像是一個小型社區。238Please respect copyright.PENANAwTrWtXKz3T
238Please respect copyright.PENANAFDsS4TTpWO
我盡可能快速經過每一個間隔,不是每個間隔都住了人。238Please respect copyright.PENANANnMwdDBmwL
238Please respect copyright.PENANAIMDunhCyyU
經過其中一個,有個人和我對視了一眼,然後跟我說:「不要進去,你會後悔的。」238Please respect copyright.PENANAodiypVQWTa
238Please respect copyright.PENANAUC1doicua2
「為什麼?」看清楚一點,他是失蹤者6號,他的頭還是包紥著。238Please respect copyright.PENANA3FXPJ7EUOD
238Please respect copyright.PENANAu8Xn303sBX
「真的值得用自己的性命,去換回那些時光嗎?」他搖搖頭說:「有些事情,發生了便是發生了。」238Please respect copyright.PENANAFACWISEy0W
238Please respect copyright.PENANA8QR9BaFDUE
他上個月醉駕撞到了別人的車,對方的司機當場証實不治,被法院提告了。238Please respect copyright.PENANA2nAeGk80EW
238Please respect copyright.PENANAElFSgpELRN
他續說:「要後悔也沒用,要怪便怪自己為什麼不顧後果。」238Please respect copyright.PENANAO8Mel8Sd2O
238Please respect copyright.PENANAGfJW14vK7N
我看了看他的手腕,沒有紋身:「你回去了嗎?」238Please respect copyright.PENANAD5tkifMMkk
238Please respect copyright.PENANAsIPlnJZrIe
「我哪有得回去?」他冷笑一下:「原來我只有十年壽命,哈,連入場費也不夠。」238Please respect copyright.PENANAnGLuuBh4Ak
238Please respect copyright.PENANAVjtJho9g3O
「那⋯⋯」238Please respect copyright.PENANA94RTWo2vnP
238Please respect copyright.PENANAAolYRj9LB2
「你呢?你又是在這裡等死嗎?」他勸喻我:「如果你還未給入場費的話,我建議你還是趁機逃跑,你不知會道你的生命有多長,搏不過。」238Please respect copyright.PENANAnQtSbyNPdu
238Please respect copyright.PENANAt8Ej21wU0W
我默默的離去,經過另一個間隔,她是失蹤者13號,哭得竭撕底里的,手腕上也沒有紋身。238Please respect copyright.PENANAk5OlbvBBsV
238Please respect copyright.PENANA9wP2IVssRV
再走多幾個間隔,愈走便愈沉重,發現還有兩個失蹤者,和幾個不知名的人,全部人的紋身也完全褪去。看來這個房間的人,都是用完了自己的壽命,在這裡等候發落。238Please respect copyright.PENANA8VvVabKkPn

離開房間,向著另一個方向走,沿著走廊的,走向原本應該要走的左手邊,那邊也是有兩個房間。如果他的設計是平衡的話,在面前的房間,應該是跟剛才的一樣。應該有一些能夠成功出去的人,需要一間房安置好。238Please respect copyright.PENANAAJsEEtMkZ3
238Please respect copyright.PENANAbsfVMnjYTD
我打開門,果然不出所料。這間房跟剛才的設計是除了擺位是相反外,基本上是一模一樣。238Please respect copyright.PENANABU0Y2QmDoE
238Please respect copyright.PENANAGmfXsgQmjw
我選了幾個間隔來看,在這邊的人,表情比較豐富。有的興高采烈等著離開,有的愁眉深鎖的苦惱。238Please respect copyright.PENANAqGgR2p81jV
238Please respect copyright.PENANA10Vwo7mjrX
「我跟你說,」失蹤者19號興奮向我走來說:「我投資成功賺到了,我成功了!」238Please respect copyright.PENANAOABCtpcE5z
238Please respect copyright.PENANAz7IMTc9x6I
「投資?」他不是投資失利,變賣了所有家產,最終放棄人生嗎?238Please respect copyright.PENANAi3okZlG5Ke
238Please respect copyright.PENANA3mBCzO9wbp
「對啊,我回到兩個月前,避開股市大跌的那天。」他真的很興奮:「我賺了兩千萬,哈哈哈!」238Please respect copyright.PENANA9ufKz6kMq1
238Please respect copyright.PENANA7K7POc8JDv
住在隔鄰的人走過來:「早知我便去買張必定中獎的六合彩吧!」238Please respect copyright.PENANAnMu4SnqkkK
238Please respect copyright.PENANAqijfrKd361
失蹤者19號大聲笑著:「真的啊,我真的買了耶,頭獎是我的了。」238Please respect copyright.PENANAgpHPz7icVK
238Please respect copyright.PENANAvNX7up9rK9
不知為何,我很討厭這些貪錢的人,看了看他的紋身,很深色。我默默地祝福他一定要長命百歲和「身體健康」。238Please respect copyright.PENANAjBls31gtGu
238Please respect copyright.PENANAoO1HYebNAy
我再向前走,一個個失蹤者出現在眼前。238Please respect copyright.PENANAGsNloKZARg
238Please respect copyright.PENANAGHXfsZYs2r
失蹤者3號意志消沉的坐在床上,他沒能成功改變歷史,白費了壽命。238Please respect copyright.PENANAywBD0diO8C
238Please respect copyright.PENANAhzGtxgsqFM
失蹤者7號雖然成功改變歷史,但只剩下五年壽命,在埋怨不應該走進來。238Please respect copyright.PENANAO6DpGFAE3F
238Please respect copyright.PENANAHw2POgDLxx
失蹤者14號成功救了自殺的兒子,雖出去後,他要身負重傷,仍慶幸自己能救回兒子。238Please respect copyright.PENANA2qaxwp8A2u
238Please respect copyright.PENANAe9aG4qKAow
失蹤者21號進入了太空艙三次,共用了50年的壽命,組織了一個理想家庭,只剩下三個月生命,興奮的等待出去。238Please respect copyright.PENANAC4kzJkm5DN
238Please respect copyright.PENANAYNlxBlQvuo
失蹤者24號跟21號的情況類似,但他卻後悔花了45年壽命,只換來四個月的幸福。238Please respect copyright.PENANApOmSnQLKDD
238Please respect copyright.PENANAWHEOzXxKAN
人生苦短,要後悔的事何其多,怎能每件事都有回頭的可能?成功與否,實在取決於你的心態。238Please respect copyright.PENANAhwOCX7HVIK
238Please respect copyright.PENANAlNdpPaMGmb
在這裡不能逗留太久,雖然再找到了幾名失蹤者,但我還未找到老婆大人。實在很擔心她,她究竟是在後悔什麼事?238Please respect copyright.PENANAuBLPW8POUu

238Please respect copyright.PENANApODEOXIVWt
238Please respect copyright.PENANAFeN1p3u82P
下一間是最後的房間,老婆大人應該在裡面。我深呼吸一下,開門走進去。238Please respect copyright.PENANAE83L5aj2W2
238Please respect copyright.PENANADYeOmwFeFv
咦?門鎖了?238Please respect copyright.PENANAb9bWU86gGz
238Please respect copyright.PENANAvLFG7eBEji
我看了看旁邊的指示燈,由藍色變了紅色,並發出了嗚嗚叫聲。糟了,這會引來守衛吧。238Please respect copyright.PENANApF9PHbmmej
238Please respect copyright.PENANATtGcK4X4nH
說時遲,那時快,真的有兩名守衛突然在我兩旁出現,把我的雙手捉住了:「是入侵者。」238Please respect copyright.PENANAQkIBN7L6PR
238Please respect copyright.PENANAtq9SC0egaC
反應敏捷的我,用了他們的手借力,雙腳走上牆,然後一個翻身,把他們兩個人的頭撞在一起,撞得兩人頓時也神智不清。我拿起了掛在其中一人腰旁的透明名牌,在門旁邊的黑色小盒子上面拍一下。238Please respect copyright.PENANAMIRiRwsAUS
238Please respect copyright.PENANAL8L14l44qv
嘟——238Please respect copyright.PENANAwwrWD8zEIT
238Please respect copyright.PENANAeVngeG9IQo
門順利地打開了,裡面有十個,由左至右整齊排列的櫃檯,每個櫃檯透明板上的字,我看到了!238Please respect copyright.PENANAFOiJvV4mJi
238Please respect copyright.PENANAcfzy149rj1
我看到老婆大人在繳費處,排在最前的位置。我走到她的面前:「婷婷,跟我走。」238Please respect copyright.PENANANdijUPFlHc
238Please respect copyright.PENANARKibZByssP
「廷廷?」老婆大人驚訝著:「你怎麼會在這裡?」238Please respect copyright.PENANA7Gf4EVz1n2
238Please respect copyright.PENANAYM1JEutE0q
門外的守衛清醒過來,走進來按下了緊急掣,整個房間的藍色燈都變成了表示危險的紅色。大陪份人不知所惜,裡面的職員感到事態不妙,也走出來了。238Please respect copyright.PENANADRVDAVnkHK
238Please respect copyright.PENANA8JAXBUWWpj
「先出去再說。」我連忙牽著老婆大人的手,往門口方向走。但其中一個守衛正向我衝過來,我使出跆拳道的腳法,一腳、兩腳,輕鬆的擊倒他。238Please respect copyright.PENANAHCvwPQOUer
238Please respect copyright.PENANAqmdca3toSj
另外一個擺出準備跟我對決的姿勢,我放開老婆大人的手,雙手護在前面,跟守衛對招,一拳、兩拳,再跳起使出黃金較剪腳,把他的頭夾住,然後用手刀把他劈暈。238Please respect copyright.PENANA3gxRT2dDlB
238Please respect copyright.PENANAb9Xq7WSrd0
職員見狀,都不敢向我走過來,只懂在噓張聲勢:「你停手啊,有更多守衛正在過來。」238Please respect copyright.PENANAHTpadikOxH
238Please respect copyright.PENANAo7m0XOkMI7
老實說,如果他們是十人以上,我真的沒信心打贏,唯有走為上著。但沿著原路走,必定會被趕上。我看看周圍的指示牌,上面的字仍能清晰看見。我看到櫃檯的兩邊盡頭,都有一個緊急出口。238Please respect copyright.PENANASwGAhr5LJ5
238Please respect copyright.PENANAqiswiVjaWJ
「左右都有出口,應該會出到去?還是會走得更深入?要去哪一個?」我用對講機問助手,這個時候,他應該分析好整個地形,3D圖應該都已完成了,可以放心將性命交給他。238Please respect copyright.PENANAbYDiVBJpsY
238Please respect copyright.PENANAhkm7CxHkqD
「離開這間房,向大閘走大約五步,左手邊會有秘密通道。」238Please respect copyright.PENANA3Xoch9iOl5
238Please respect copyright.PENANAyDzOPI8Kxf
我牽著老婆大人的手離開房間,到達走廊,看到了透明板上的標示。為什麼呢?可能是因為我拿了他們的職員証吧。238Please respect copyright.PENANAtCrOK9l0t2
238Please respect copyright.PENANAvjUjrsIuS4
在寫著「緊急用」的透明板下,我拿著職員証拍在黑色小盒子上。238Please respect copyright.PENANAE7VNpsmjsa
238Please respect copyright.PENANAOABKCSA47f
嘟——238Please respect copyright.PENANAVNWo85rGY6
238Please respect copyright.PENANAlivL3eX45F
只聽到開門的聲音,牆壁一動也不動,並沒有像門一樣的打開。奇怪了?門在哪裡?238Please respect copyright.PENANAX9E0oDECLD
238Please respect copyright.PENANAKKoardmRth
牆壁開始發出聲音:「五、四⋯⋯」238Please respect copyright.PENANAVg4s9U9QmO
238Please respect copyright.PENANACo39FG9uqy
左右兩邊都有守衞向我衝過來。238Please respect copyright.PENANAyEatEfi2tO
238Please respect copyright.PENANAe8Z7DpBqy9
「三、二⋯⋯」238Please respect copyright.PENANAVd0GCJbJRa
238Please respect copyright.PENANAFMNAI0paF3
生死存亡之間,我就當自己是哈利波特,在倒數到「一」之前,緊緊牽著老婆大人的手,閉上眼睛,衝了過去。238Please respect copyright.PENANASYHa0WcSpW
238Please respect copyright.PENANAR4hBw5ACc0

———— (13)尾聲238Please respect copyright.PENANAUsys8JCcE4
238Please respect copyright.PENANAeWUOucr5w0
238Please respect copyright.PENANAuXyIHoHPdQ
衝過了牆,強光刺進眼簾,我們閉上眼睛,不顧一切地向前走,直至感到草在腳旁撩動,強光逐漸緩和,才慢慢張開眼睛。238Please respect copyright.PENANAHqDpiHYuP4
238Please respect copyright.PENANADKpktDJTbh
赫見附近的環境變回正常,現處於山洞旁的樹林。238Please respect copyright.PENANAXXCNBOLdSs
238Please respect copyright.PENANAKkG9mHfuUb
走到助手旁邊,他把我擁著:「大佬,你沒事便好。」我拍了拍他的肩膊,再看了看山洞那邊,入口已經消失得無影無蹤,也沒有守衛要衝出來的動靜。238Please respect copyright.PENANA74xGsZ3SzU
238Please respect copyright.PENANAOYQdg28cS4
到底發生過什麼事?完了嗎?真的完了嗎?238Please respect copyright.PENANAh6SXkOExG5
238Please respect copyright.PENANATBStTTPkSX
我轉頭看著老婆大人:「婷婷,我們先回去好嗎?」老婆大人點了點頭,默不作聲。估計她是嚇壞了,或者是有事瞞著我。238Please respect copyright.PENANAFPOMLrs2hw
238Please respect copyright.PENANAxS3LD48TbQ
我們保持警惕地回到偵探社,一路上,就是正常得不能再正常。238Please respect copyright.PENANAHQeIe9S9tq
238Please respect copyright.PENANAbFhg6U7cP0
我看著桌面上寫著「Top Secret」的文件夾不寒而慄,有被別人動過的痕跡。戰戰競競的打開它,全部都變成白紙了。什麼?我跟助手檢查了幾次,甚至連我們所寫的筆錄和電腦文件也離奇的消失了。238Please respect copyright.PENANA2RC2U7NPBQ
238Please respect copyright.PENANAxw12VnCtCL
那這個委託⋯⋯我還要不要做?238Please respect copyright.PENANABumVMlGnMb
238Please respect copyright.PENANA0mt3arLPXC
在文件夾上面,出現了一個神秘信封。我手抖著的打開它,怕有什麼要爆出來似的。238Please respect copyright.PENANAQb4lgleqsI
238Please respect copyright.PENANAtjiJuH1WNi
裡面有一張字條,上面寫著「任務完成,餘款已存入帳戶。」還有附有一張存款証明。238Please respect copyright.PENANAkbrSg3ivLG
238Please respect copyright.PENANANVcWpdO7Au
完成了?那些人或者幕後黑手,會否找我算帳?238Please respect copyright.PENANAnrRmoAQGbi
238Please respect copyright.PENANAJE4FyW00yg
信紙好像會讀我的心聲那樣,打字機般的出現了新一行字:「放心,我已處理好,不會有人跟蹤你或尋仇。」238Please respect copyright.PENANA6Upq07ajTC
238Please respect copyright.PENANA7LcOXcZX6Q
委託人最初的信件,是要我找到他們的行蹤,僅此而已。我再拿起筆,憑記憶寫了下見過的失蹤者。真的啊,全部都找出來了。238Please respect copyright.PENANAPJ3evaVsWg
238Please respect copyright.PENANAqns7nqUrId
那些失蹤者,都因為後悔當初,才走到這一步。雖說有些能成功改變歷史,可是失敗的也有不少,甚至用盡自己的力量,也挽救不了已發生的事。238Please respect copyright.PENANAbSsfQkfwVC
238Please respect copyright.PENANAe3VQlMcEWE
人生,確實有太多做錯選擇的事時候。所以,要三思而後行。238Please respect copyright.PENANAQNU2nEEsoa
238Please respect copyright.PENANADElgT4z3Kq
我看看老婆大人,她究竟在後悔什麼事呢?嚴重到要以性命去換取再來一次的機會。238Please respect copyright.PENANATud7vSGPQg
238Please respect copyright.PENANApSFCAMaFML
趁助手在外面埋頭開發新型攝錄機,我走近坐在一旁的老婆大人。238Please respect copyright.PENANAplEbcYrevv
238Please respect copyright.PENANA16i7BkX3Cx
「婷婷……」我不知要如何說起。238Please respect copyright.PENANA2P5OyA1fBK
238Please respect copyright.PENANANE3vDc6YeR
「你會否原諒我?無論我做錯了什麼事。」老婆大人低著頭,手指不安的互相抓著。238Please respect copyright.PENANAouLFsvD1Zj
238Please respect copyright.PENANAbjTylTSTMd
我把手覆在她的手上:「我們是一家人嘛,發生了什麼事,說出來,我們一起解決,好嗎?」238Please respect copyright.PENANAX29ejnKvsw
238Please respect copyright.PENANAWhpV72AFa9
「延廷對不起……」老婆大人撲進我的懷裡。238Please respect copyright.PENANAYwlxgF5Eyk
238Please respect copyright.PENANAmFiIZe2AXm
我抱著她,安慰著她,並壓制住情緒。其實這幾天我已發現了一些蛛絲馬跡,但我不希望那是真的,所以騙了自己。就算是難以原諒的事,因為是老婆大人,我都可以接受。238Please respect copyright.PENANAVP3EHBtlEc
238Please respect copyright.PENANA8NFdn5EYz5
我不想失去老婆大人,不想後悔:「不要怕,我原諒你。」238Please respect copyright.PENANAQUV68hgdiP
238Please respect copyright.PENANAYBJNPkXM8R
