愛莉的真名自然不是愛莉，如她所言她是個攝影師。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTsfDr7tyl
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqxROEeAKl
但準確來說，是前攝影師。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxhHRidsf9
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YrGsVIRuh
「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。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuL6nkVsUWm
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3n6M8rxQX
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiqqG9IA0M
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8u4y3z7UIy
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtoBZXrWMO
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1iIcVbEV2
「好靚係唔係？」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MRlVQ76F9
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcijkedK2B
我看著相片中的鈴兒說：「嗯，好靚。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGcdc7M8oy
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zabIE63yj
「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。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlRlqDaVAO
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTuWs5PdnS
「吓，會計？咁咪完全唔關事……」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4upPhLXzWt
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xogFc7jwP
「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……」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeXJ9UMAge
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6OGvLU3BK
我輕咬下唇：「我好明白……大家生活都唔易。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhV1gcxJylg
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTVbVUsWaT
「但佢真係好鐘意影相，咁嘅生活……佢根本無返去嘅理由。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJG7i4s4trF
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJf6ZC3KDu
「返去嘅理由…」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7BHzrGcfV
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWSSAHDKrd
「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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rB6Zo6quk
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCATbphOR7Y
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。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqyctxXdAH
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5uGNObHFT
「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。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGyfWp7vjP
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyIymhGnRF
我心中一沉。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrv2HnYPJc
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHJO8fjELx
因為我意識到阡迴旅館的限制了。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJIoc1qGRu
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPetrgcheW
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yK1E2aEtB
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiZOBheEBw
只要留在這兒，愛莉永遠沒法成為攝影師。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8CvdvASfE
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBJGfOQyK4
只要留在這兒，我也永遠沒法……335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmnP0qDF2a
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoxQrw5xnw
「唔好意思，遲咗。」旁邊的門打開，愛莉穿過門到達大堂。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzRrrG301Z
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrVNgV8g8r
「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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2YM9Ofy23
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHHJvVsUiT
「我始終想再睇多次。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwE8qXmpx2
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fhbGrWVn9
「睇幾多次都可以喔。」鈴兒說，「嚟，我邊行邊講你知，阿柏。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzU5r3dL4WX
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6O45LZmQS2
「哦…哦好！」我唯唯諾諾跟上。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxikyQ5Mgwj
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceB6Ov7JlT
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…？335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpxoTHVPOk
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxy6CVVfRSG
甚麼跟甚麼。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkHvqM3u2W
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgk5m4sbKa3
「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。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQvQUK45Rh
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQqDdXXxp6
這時我突然發現鈴兒修長的玉掌結出了一個手印。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafRiY7Np1w
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHdCqeg91e
「例如——」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZhK0tZOx0
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezRJyYWq6z
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa1AbMPJnC
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwBphfQUXA
「叮鈴……叮鈴……」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwyPA2titf
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLT5LPcsXZ
鈴兒閉上眼，如同傾聽著風鈴在天井之中激起的迴音。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ji2UNXFfK
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzxwIDhB4r
「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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpy2PcLzSP
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxzdwZxAWV
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSSeFN75F6
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhyOsSx7dp
「你睇呢道門。」鈴兒說。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DpoW16DD6
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0R0ni0fMXy
「Hall 2B？」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMD9HpwbP7
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBka03Vewa
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」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffbB3RwfDv
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSmBWMqPl4
「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？」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq7zVN0Bjj
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6fCGmaBA1
我點點頭：「嗯。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPseHsWRJH
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXVT26rCGE
「唔係問你喇阿柏，我問緊愛莉。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiXB9OaYKu
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRA7c8d55q
愛莉失笑：「我準備好。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJBCjh1c5o
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCglvX13EzV
甚麼嘛，她還是會笑的。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbfWqb1xTQ
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREhvrtLd2c
「嘎——」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZkPhbC7ou
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixh5LJnOSK
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！335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXzd9g5sIw
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNUtdkB9N7
「呢度……！」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHukBR5E9TM
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvipTKMns4
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeC704jobgf
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEWfUQhale
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……335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2feRux06V
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZvPsjytQ5
「咦？」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡng55Xaf5bc
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRi7AOkUEM
低頭一看，我身上不知何時都換上了寶藍色的西裝和皮鞋。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxRtTvc2rZ
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsoAny5aNY
「幾襯你啊，阿柏。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCxM9E6Axj
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOI7JP06xM1
「多謝……你地都…我地幾時換埋衫？」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytTKByBZLt
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucRds9oXdz
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7wjHqiOXi
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMU6WTfaIV5
「始終係嚟呢種場合嘛。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDVoRzyGx9
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VrdkClgFj
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZv6h1op2EC
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZAkDBzbbZ
「呢度係……」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPiNB6iD1z
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJdg3FMY23
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfVXNwKEmf
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZ87AsZQ9R
「等陣先！個年份係唔係寫錯？！」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrdGulZPwh
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0EFAOVszn
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。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIGnyN9xcx
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWCMLeptou
「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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsvmufc46J
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWDpEtknUr
「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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8etg5RXQF
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxuKWta0Cb
就在那瞬間，我看到了。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzk4D6f7OS
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDZerPZqRK
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！335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8cVgcjPJM
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq9eqY8p8K
這就是鈴兒口中說的「未來」！335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQZwhg8wSW
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnccjkajF8v
「鈴兒，我地坐邊？」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOZsHtpbrs
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvcifw4Vq4
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？335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqJ46WMl3d
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDSyd7RDUy
「我地行呢邊。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVts93BhFyT
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVS2OsyJ0z
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaNDAzq3Pc
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxGIAoHRcD
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！335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYKJzFklru
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTmSTLoRbp
「嘎——」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksCs4ARGs0
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq3aC6RwDn
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！335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrAUz0bQvu
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxd7XxWJbkO
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPo1YAkTDQt
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrve2JdERop
這邊的年長愛莉衣服變了，身邊的丈夫也換了一個人！335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WjPQSKOvw
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkULxz4xyx
「呢度已經係另一個平行宇宙。」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZC0JO74DQ
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpCTx5Jy6E
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqz89C6yQ1
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GLYGqk3lR
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oJygooTMp
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40XaZBPIBU
年長愛莉的衣服再次改變，身邊變成了一個較年青的男生。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BhoKl5t9Y
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YGkxihHDx
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tSh6SturB
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5u4Quof87
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。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2Yme8G4Ya
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrvV4AgZJL
但唯有那一句不變。335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcTzOnaUHj
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQkPf0K0HV
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNNX3oBBrG
335Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWpiwtIgmC
終於我們停下腳步，駐足於這個平行宇宙之中。
