愛莉的真名自然不是愛莉，如她所言她是個攝影師。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX2hqdakjA
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49HSrWyayf
但準確來說，是前攝影師。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XRLFgqbq5
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOuGF8LtSD
「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。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQMyhROqGk
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUOVDaZp2m
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddqdePgwJV
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAQMWQpHe0
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpT0hyJwniV
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJalii73td
「好靚係唔係？」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WQ0ZBAiZD
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5EO2odYo5
我看著相片中的鈴兒說：「嗯，好靚。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7Aq8j3zcj
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUja7Ha46J
「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。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkjzm7TAe1
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ9lm2tCjC
「吓，會計？咁咪完全唔關事……」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28YENHAA9y
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2X3gzlGvHG
「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……」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvnl5lIzcG
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAD9sJZEQKX
我輕咬下唇：「我好明白……大家生活都唔易。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITIIf5lWgv
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrhLFsH3Be
「但佢真係好鐘意影相，咁嘅生活……佢根本無返去嘅理由。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKpcan6r0H
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlfCjfcBhj
「返去嘅理由…」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wLNdn1dYJ
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnrR0cWQ87
「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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gCgstEkpV
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdQcs7MhVE
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。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnC5jZMKru
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcysJMYApc
「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。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiGIGc2AqV
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeYBOoeziN
我心中一沉。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqSJWlAdTa
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nuQlYJX70
因為我意識到阡迴旅館的限制了。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUneqeiVRyy
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ44htHSVuco
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlq62oB4F8Z
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vUuLyhv1R
只要留在這兒，愛莉永遠沒法成為攝影師。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChiuLpgsgb
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV56ebmbdT6
只要留在這兒，我也永遠沒法……466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMsonExgQ3
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1nKLlEfJ8
「唔好意思，遲咗。」旁邊的門打開，愛莉穿過門到達大堂。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0Xjx1ZdVF
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfpopR8HZ1
「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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryIHm8DopK
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KAjYPsxkQ
「我始終想再睇多次。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDhcDcDh6U
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIM2S6EIcRL
「睇幾多次都可以喔。」鈴兒說，「嚟，我邊行邊講你知，阿柏。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfhLgd1Cw6
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gyCjQH9KB
「哦…哦好！」我唯唯諾諾跟上。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATWrmJ1sqD
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LfFiy4erp
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…？466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZV4oiVvSpq
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGYgu6gDW3
甚麼跟甚麼。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWVpL28bUa
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyRx5eYxUJ
「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。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU9393MA3m
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9NgLUtCF2
這時我突然發現鈴兒修長的玉掌結出了一個手印。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehYrbfhx23
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGDz84IbIh
「例如——」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDX0EaqSjc0
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanqqQbit1A
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyrXcq0EWR
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopYPzYR9Bt
「叮鈴……叮鈴……」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9FCgIIoGQ
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMLEcAxG5H
鈴兒閉上眼，如同傾聽著風鈴在天井之中激起的迴音。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96ZHsGke1S
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYy6JytHhT
「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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCzfbEn8TV
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCycQdX1PT
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdps5QWCdY
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEuueENsG4
「你睇呢道門。」鈴兒說。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLLK7DdLTG
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGnm1UAlsT
「Hall 2B？」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQCO7x3UFE
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDp7pi0Nyd
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」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcizDzYd68
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrjeV3CX10
「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？」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJ5CNMQq22
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZUovTteU2
我點點頭：「嗯。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2sswCli3gS
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2is2Kggjr
「唔係問你喇阿柏，我問緊愛莉。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMN0qiilxs
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20WmQ9Ys0p
愛莉失笑：「我準備好。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lSvAFh9IX
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IPVMWixCi
甚麼嘛，她還是會笑的。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS6uhFyMoa
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtjq7WB7BU
「嘎——」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTVyk3vsM2
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KirzHgaEn
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！466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vaP3aYvVG
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WTOYmYMhI
「呢度……！」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZOHD5XNnk
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJthwBjRlH
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTSNmSMVLZ
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHllr2u9KGX
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……466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dUK5iw3TO
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIy49mGwhdc
「咦？」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHt8Oo0oQS
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHPVwqjEFf
低頭一看，我身上不知何時都換上了寶藍色的西裝和皮鞋。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC69pzbrpvn
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpV5raJvl3l
「幾襯你啊，阿柏。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNwm8NRUfj
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcsUy1xD6X
「多謝……你地都…我地幾時換埋衫？」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtybJAaDBx
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2ctU7iNLS
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4Gwr4recW
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBvCITyuAK
「始終係嚟呢種場合嘛。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1o1GsO8P3
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHzIVLsM1u
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0OC1fDaS5
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡllDZg30JZi
「呢度係……」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqazgPAlXux
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgAvGn9ADQ
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWDr2qEbzl
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUB9tlEcMpA
「等陣先！個年份係唔係寫錯？！」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaW6RWYrUHb
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOScsQ6Dtd
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。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNJn66zdjV
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLMy5RZpBrp
「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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoc5wi9BhUo
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDTM6OUVOt
「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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMIBE8EPmP
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAgyu7gB1M
就在那瞬間，我看到了。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAdmdoOy7I
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJF9cUhoiyg
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！466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofjzjUsc4I
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdU5BCLhaZY
這就是鈴兒口中說的「未來」！466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9i55eekIf
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0q1WDI2R6
「鈴兒，我地坐邊？」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGjYFYd7aI
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmgEL4wZnX
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？466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXR4rhuwAZT
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMB3K9FrQKu
「我地行呢邊。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49vuzNXGI4
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsSHcYdpZT
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHUFFWzFz1
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOTcR9pdhM
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！466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaTSeg9Ad7
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFf09sIT8t
「嘎——」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoGsS50lil
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8rEecERVQ
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！466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1mj8IFKfj
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlge7q9Ke2a
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbL77lC9Xw
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9RfBoomtI
這邊的年長愛莉衣服變了，身邊的丈夫也換了一個人！466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBZ1yegzNs
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcyHpm6aNy
「呢度已經係另一個平行宇宙。」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWlnLgiOBS
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLgTP5FRqZ
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsLEca89kr
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlc8TOFa5L
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wSMeVvbFC
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIj0lkQYhjG
年長愛莉的衣服再次改變，身邊變成了一個較年青的男生。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2kEsglK7b
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWNLy97m8n
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiuFcbrmMA
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UixRtKuS0
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。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSsB9pdWQQ
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRTVMmpMp74
但唯有那一句不變。466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWex4izKZz5
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgrLWqlcej
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb36P5kKDtD
466Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc6bMZt3fd
終於我們停下腳步，駐足於這個平行宇宙之中。
