「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMaDD8fjyJ
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3sh9NEWH4
「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？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3bEMzdPM3
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM3jUjnxjS
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ975l4TleQN
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPQLpES3Kx
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmDLgLqRrm
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiWJn4814q
「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。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsLJjIcFBZ
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyEcgqE6S0
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92l3lO3UI9
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRE4n2Iq9eA
卻使我心頭一震！700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHg4LKxtiGq
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuEnAtuZkb
「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。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8Ih5Nxkna
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RfhXJXPGW
甚麼解鈴之人。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWT4LEQKvp7
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAyZ7exhvW
「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？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPF7WmDvbx2
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjN5sDdbuLC
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1O6Lhnh0mz
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRJ77X26sw
「我無。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElvSOMfPW2
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJPflTFWXy
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviXdCNh7db
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAOTy32LzX
「鈴兒……」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdlQUrZNov
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs553TeCh7N
「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。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIQQdSIprl
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9dAEsClq0
「你真係無事？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIJZEvI7SA
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVkF3EbUs3
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnPBILJBdv
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3pu3v6Nze
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbmjbzWARX
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3kWhsArDP
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIAVOjQLwn
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbk6poRTDb
「明……明白。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciwLOIdsgz
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosiU5Y3k5l
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！700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjYm2DhUvU
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr42mEddtUv
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS0seY0ZZRK
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8IU9QCI7i
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlNOrCntjw
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtG9W2euVtD
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2GYKCiFQh
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80H6Gl5PSJ
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjRSYigfPs
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLBf72jGqU
「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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzoJLwr3Ny
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZp1HXtQQWW
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAjqxYo9WC
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghgqh7kjxc
「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。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4thvsSQIS
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMvMienSNm
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGT7SqHx9XY
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplbV7UcYFA
「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。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33pbvgKF7e
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNVjGRn0Wb
「好。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr58fOBgLch
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDAkneqirk
沙漏中的沙被停下。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97wTtfHwpv
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡea1XzPmrPV
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVvTrgi9FO
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWTUvVO9z9
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuq7KXUuN0
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocLpupTR1D
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OR4YnCduT
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8vSLQloYn
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZczWHx77fG
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0KHs5XYaA
「呃……呃……」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3n5vc4byY
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIV4hL7Zoc
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVYgwEWAO6
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP9rW7JYEu
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kvZSTzRPD
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iuFUQJAIq
「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。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3ipYs9ExY
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapSHWBZbGX
「……」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvz1UtqR0y
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJ4fIsPHJu
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwdWE0g8P2
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdL5H4obesD
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ye5mHWqO9
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ONJNtWhc4
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZYpuUOHJh
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfupC4L4CL
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEvOtEb5Ir
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXN7xVpnGa
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTzblX3VEX
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7xiIB5PcP
假如鈴兒是錯的。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWztt0wjcP4
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm80nEZjdsK
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrDk5UrDpQ
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAATMzNkd53
「……你咩意思？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrBIQnFyJI
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfnOtzGTjW
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？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlrgZHeZOm
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pnIM3PAJa
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Cj5MjMvbk
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTw9SYXC4wA
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JP2bnd9ok
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdYBt9sjKi
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhKj0UCaJd
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wT9iW3L0b
「阡迴之門？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjk0PzihX8
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKekCfEId4
「跟我嚟。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYe3MHzONR
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4oTQd5EjQ
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqby8pKdJiX
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw68hCpNkJq
「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。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuwwIMw20E
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF74bueElz7
「叮…叮……」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RtEdolwEb
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡes9CKYLe9C
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxsY5GB1Hs
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV3dItYDzW
「就會咁。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuusvwCNq1b
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4pHt7MO87
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqirSZlWhFK
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGx4Cb2LiL
「係阡迴旅館？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznTjnFLunw
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNonULU2dLQ
「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。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiulKZ1sB0e
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMPJsZhaA3
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcKpAcRuEA
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4x1grzn9ZP
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ueKSvVev4
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqVM9sOqoTk
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoL4ngsw2uS
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1nMh3wIZS
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzXuifBsVL
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwDp2vkSj3
沒有回去常世的未來。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VJvwC5Zsz
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVL0u1HIyo3
「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！」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQnMRVBsfS
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpBB7ELKXD
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyeo20ZOet
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF390Poaz1U
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheQFdzujuX
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25MRnQAlyh
可是，卻——700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKk1hpgl2RL
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQ1wRgvE84
「無。」鈴兒說。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HPvwTzhHh
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Pvm2X4bwR
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfWcmnh1lO
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl40wTzQFcV
「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。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgikZ968vXY
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xL3LwAvdh
「真心咩……」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyY8iIa7mOk
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRR0buBRD6
「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？」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsc1LRMFv4
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTA8uc5xPX
我一時間答不出來。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcWz6scRoA
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32NqRwS1Fh
回家？當然了，我想回家。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyD6jXPAsV4
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXGIJDJgWN
但之後呢？700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazzwHU0kau
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhhuMLonb5
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？700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hxP8bwDjl
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKejrMoeoF
我甚麼也不會成為的。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzQNzPZQ8V
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsyYGciEmA
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？700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxiS0rqE8y
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssIEYUnTtm
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rCWq0EVy0
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxPIw3pacY
「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。」700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHIV0S19el
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UfhuixyLl
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rz2lX9tF2
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9rmlAUSm5
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofgciyINwJ
700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe36Synk1Ta
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。700Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IuJZeHaKA
