「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEte1lIkyb0
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMMG6CXMlV
「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？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn7S9OCbYO
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKuOMz0zS6
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiIjdmaquZ
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLyF7UurxX
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UYVN8TWJW
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3043y0SIPq
「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。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4vXKeBWSc
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfa7Tvm702i
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLS83rmEeNg
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnNxWcBtgp
卻使我心頭一震！302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeqrzPf1ZZ
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfi5CAUQHPK
「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。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5u4UjS86D
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fsTVkcbts
甚麼解鈴之人。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8XDh7mBeOD
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWztK5p6o9
「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？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgqkQVsmFR
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmfn94QZec
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfiL54a6w6
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5C1RbfOBB7
「我無。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAshpAIWRub
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndcaRYA5nr
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVJMTJzsRg
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlFjgxomjo
「鈴兒……」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVxpaMGrAf
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarqYCD8Fyp
「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。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKTSFa2qQs
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGA59fRBKF
「你真係無事？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafgYvVqJer
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsA0X8xAsTg
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUgkoylIlV
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBN99vxa9g
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8x8M55CH4
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRrwNcbItS
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNlWtfz7yw
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSHtPwrRtv
「明……明白。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQMkE3xFT8
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOh2OCYnUP
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！302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6NddUstXb
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRGdHgvd3h
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkI9fOdtSzZ
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc87S4HtO7O
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIOIzWVXk1
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrccZbuI30m
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSRecyiSQ6
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLURJKkah9
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiTtxQNg6W
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8kS8hjaHE
「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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKt21pNA2aO
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCj0Aq64j6D
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5SfgPczqI
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwMj9cYBUR
「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。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyS7G5yTCpP
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEONHDVqtJ
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzb8GiMev5u
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHdT45196N
「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。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJMaLbnUoN
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg356PhX24b
「好。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRb6FOfUJc
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixZookR5aR
沙漏中的沙被停下。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrGqdNMp13
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OLUNYUbu1
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xIBpwLOpM
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbKOLUSDjt
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmbYHjO01I
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeye3qp3oL
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99unAjp5i1
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwD6Uwtx2t
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvMvM4Bc3r
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BnvavULp1
「呃……呃……」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnUu3pPzIn
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZiPvbhRgu
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfUeeXbkaJ
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGcAOpsWpa
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNK4aIWGVR
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OhNqgk5Lc
「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。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctQTUwIQP1
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1z2t7EGrL
「……」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFALl38tWfp
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LsAsT6VOq
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAPHB6nuxv
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOalSqvZltm
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPk9QjboUPv
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mlc4WpNDH
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunXfbkGOOf
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbkBnlShv5
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdsBEqVndl
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvw84abzYJv
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweeHJCHbz1
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfNPtRGn7B
假如鈴兒是錯的。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREEvWZbpOP
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZstOcKPYK
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoOMB3kAO3
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iyJ9JDzou
「……你咩意思？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJySIL9WNyC
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5onqhFrnQu
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？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVQg0ifeuQ
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYeYS1Ykzk
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqihzaeLt7
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkEX1SHZSo
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7tTnrv7Ul
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOoTHRrwK7
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALDMsSzEKD
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0YJfMknxO
「阡迴之門？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSeIpXevMHR
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVo3z4w8j9l
「跟我嚟。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcFdUpdSxB
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPI5OEE8ut
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZm6SQJ53A
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MAiNAqlUI
「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。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Q7EtIhKwI
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWNVCUxSky
「叮…叮……」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJzYQimiNu
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1nbi84EP9
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPPHLT4dNm
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNzyXVKE19
「就會咁。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdpkmcgwAz
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYt2BuIDg6y
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyctNy2hcpH
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9TDCsCCCz
「係阡迴旅館？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnLMSojemo
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vUz31AGro
「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。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqSZviuCwI
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFqc3btWLa
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoL2R32XRy
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0uRc7ajnn
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMsTokEWKt
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfNfLK9aUM
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gAzEpfMkR
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEf8b06hyFK
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAFZtxMQEz
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxinpllQcbM
沒有回去常世的未來。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ938S4PZwDJ
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOLffyHrL3
「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！」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPV98wVJil
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlFLWXoCP0
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlINEIb9OPo
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsciabXyf3O
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ACPqsdjnH
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4Qm84trgI
可是，卻——302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPLFvHbO21
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrn0aA7B4b
「無。」鈴兒說。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVkGyYOgvJ
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMD9r2AR34O
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IkYK0spwj
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8x93Mk5Nl
「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。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKjFRl2qNF
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbW4ooDDJc
「真心咩……」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi6TkbTSr3
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVV0CPLsbRZ
「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？」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6ZIQmCkRH
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwLV9ggxDG
我一時間答不出來。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiQuf2d4UI
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgKOgacHVU
回家？當然了，我想回家。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3KzMEHXmo
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2zZtc4vtu
但之後呢？302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9koLkYfGqE
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfxUJVbLTS
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？302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMETcyXRjEe
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzkKKfFyLv
我甚麼也不會成為的。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6chnSvips
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbZPmPueoL
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？302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxA55hblQma
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbD64yPNpY
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfVCRrhfRy
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRkdRLqyDq
「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。」302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsZNYrk9SV
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPgsL3lq8A
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNK0hWJ6wX
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkQGwtviNx
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TsqX8q4iT
302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrz8jz8p3C
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。302Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9DKo9xc7D
