「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpps6OTg9U
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivseSohrcc
「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？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zYKCpNtV0
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwPLyXyDAA
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATWWVjHCAG
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZD5CRc6hN
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC76q6eAL7j
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo5HIIbONi
「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。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSNFFdtHoK
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7h2UGiOop
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIUZT1A19xr
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuNuOBF7pv
卻使我心頭一震！377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXITc6JNkCr
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQiLmeBLXM
「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。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrK8wkpztms
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszLyX8veDF
甚麼解鈴之人。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFA1X6HN9YL
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4f1Zn0FQx
「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？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv96ErXQw07
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaNLcObnBD
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhqQfFIMlL
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7bjnKRBce
「我無。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdz3n5rSYw
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FccmKWHnc
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwxsNwUYoC
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13NzsQv979
「鈴兒……」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iUrkVOd63
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVfzSCc0AY
「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。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZS4tiCEfR
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyAdyVvKMA
「你真係無事？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhEZC2urBE
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ULRZ1W3Wy
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabxtAZq3Em
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2fGZ8Ek6f
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zNeaB2hmp
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1ZpmcDZqk
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqXKKMsUKT
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifgNp4eEhb
「明……明白。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ284HUKLjcL
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfEtmD8sQu
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！377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzaQUzuUfs
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4egwSxwVW
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoMst5bJTr
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2517Ashuw
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoepYYp8Io
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCaJx16BIi
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaWc5GtTDF
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfg4kDdF9s
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbKiYathuq
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUSiDA1sqq
「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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrmc2Nv8hi
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5ehrZ6MqX
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRRQyDYE1R
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTonpQ7D3z1
「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。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QBmhW3UIQ
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNim0nxmYg
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaff2fgyJP5
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgw6cgibKPv
「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。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡborQSYNWme
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI8RpVY45f
「好。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jwJvu5CQP
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlPz2iW8n9
沙漏中的沙被停下。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB9f26k3hwX
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpHMz39aEp
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRdwRDucyZ
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡav4qvC8Tz4
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLeF2xrDpJP
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXBr29zwjw
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MUKKSQGhB
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0n8EkR3Nyi
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglWX0diSaW
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVSK2Ttu2o
「呃……呃……」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6rMWEg3oE
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nzEZtnPly
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBCHQ6HyCX
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxklnYzz2aS
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAIou6018i
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAGLV0Ow1e
「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。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdjnPB3NJr
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHpijfo2i0W
「……」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXWoDOLT6e
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoMU7k7yP2
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO18Eah4yAr
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8neDGuUmh
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhyt6X6khE
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYGWFMv9Ny
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvmbspJ3SY
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCTul3INdo
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OYex9Wjq4
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtM7duA86Wp
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlFrEfLpah
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUW7DA7TLmz
假如鈴兒是錯的。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsW7vEuPbS
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYR177ZbDc
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPU9CzSYbx
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvBr2sQ4uU
「……你咩意思？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uKdtdLe0r
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OLZzlcP72
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？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GEXYfMtbz
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMMeSIpXq7
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvM0cEWXOZq
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNaivQ1Lid
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmToCzguyHC
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAqTi26GQV
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkFUA2JKjJN
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFY7sBn0ePZ
「阡迴之門？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeYfwDAI19
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqSUdMZcAU
「跟我嚟。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivQdrYV7QT
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bQqERRWsG
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWJ8GTwmOn
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1ZhHi5cnC
「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。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAICOFTyAHM
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXL2zhOLTS
「叮…叮……」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WGyuoPdTP
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZXxITwkA1
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwIzn3kmuI
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohWRxsDYJk
「就會咁。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BJaNoECX7
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYb4X9VTwM
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0q8I3iAvV
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvu4OGjAf9
「係阡迴旅館？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN49spWlnYH
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmc547VK6s6
「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。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpcm0DkaGX
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdb8PEidKyM
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHfpP1Js3Z
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOqNl59Fmc
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxT89mF3xh
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ2mW75vAn
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5d2YPpLCDX
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPD1HAJjn2
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyczaTGeEfW
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBk9BcBEhKL
沒有回去常世的未來。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ999X8qBhAn
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHFdyFOqc2
「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！」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5ZgaRcZfs
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4WkRwnHOd
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPIZ4eHof2
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibvMJ4My1F
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUW3n3WtP0v
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsHqdIn9ve
可是，卻——377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNkWlDw0lW
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxi7Vejmip
「無。」鈴兒說。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5n3ZG42W2g
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJxcYuqSbK
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdRQKsBCOj
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugadwCCuER
「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。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8goEtEFcQ
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV96AytSfoV
「真心咩……」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkGSncZgAU
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIBge52Eu2
「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？」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlR68QsDYi2
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPikqUJm7tL
我一時間答不出來。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvU8DAMNLKQ
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQ7xm9LkIM
回家？當然了，我想回家。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhR1qazk9u
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdngajggfbv
但之後呢？377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0yKsWVpyI
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pyE3CblN2
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？377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQuB76QUGI
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4khgHuG3x
我甚麼也不會成為的。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKFsnFn1pk
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ieJKiWCaL
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？377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4C0nXtPIY
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyK4dItmqG
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EAuKmblE3
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FNA2IJ4ZX
「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。」377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKw733IDhjP
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4kmTBzGDZ
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGjA2xZCW8
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyW5jXfHUA
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgCBTFqpIU
377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKF7lItYjZr
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。377Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiH5VqN5Cm
