「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlJjr78mXL
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6pmgOOIeo
「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？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MHgm70jaP
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvheSm5JcgV
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnH2ZE77Wnz
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHh7deghpJ
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5hi8wp775
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZbijJrgEM
「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。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xVLCzuolr
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCyseBBeBy
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7f0Pn5qZI
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2NFRx5STe
卻使我心頭一震！383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFaMqPtJLC
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYWIFZj7Ht
「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。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4eVopUKUO
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOx1iyhp2Y
甚麼解鈴之人。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4KiZrOGwr
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MSVsOoJ1V
「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？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfbBYZ2I8i
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyZBA52mGz
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq7L2miaM3
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRRIQb1btr
「我無。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumgJl8Z2Cx
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenwwB8KDjP
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8ulI2ReZu
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYrl5cyKAs
「鈴兒……」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYykxeBVpx
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uye03FKjY
「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。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEcEb9IqtE
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUywVrPbJD
「你真係無事？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsEiLmFSPD
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdBr385y2c
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3GALmsiPb
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOZ9h94B6q
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJEEBEEAbu
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQ3SM1AwKc
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkSn4OZHVz
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtWTdb4uFY
「明……明白。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIP8xPRppE
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWz2MQAuYim
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！383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bOKiih86s
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpIh2lzC6Y
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCKB9KUFA1
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpIArr7VO7
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAGVoX4YSP
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzJc7M3cFf
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyj1pxUu3d
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFgeY3Ex3U
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTcvTA2ZWr
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWjlqJszFY
「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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkbslmKRkD
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuq1hm6ZS6d
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sMEVdS4PJ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mUqkHlTIn
「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。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQXENDOECs
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAihzFHmDP
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5NvkxA03V
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq4dZ4f1K6
「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。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSu5fAaVYs
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUCEB1szQ2
「好。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAbpi6d2V3
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsK9F7Fw2bD
沙漏中的沙被停下。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdO00OngC1y
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUukbZNl6S
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0dknkQ1gy
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17qrPgcFNI
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxI52Gt6c4
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHKq7NTWs8
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04XfYiIjBk
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGmcuXDhuH
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54uWxwwjpM
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHz1hkhTyI
「呃……呃……」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu68bu5x5DN
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1js8yqebC
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD515ki0dzF
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqcmBLgGHp
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyd5YoDR6B
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyhP0lGoJP
「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。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7s4iPbej0R
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWFwcnffCP
「……」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbYzRCUQum
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwCHQYgLFH
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMclW42rXPl
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FHEzFHo1D
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmx8vEQEHS
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0q5Wi4pdc7
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7W9hLahSWh
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i3LiRI3P2
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4inzFrIqiJ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJs6udcwBG
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdtvgWiNnu
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaK8SHYj5y
假如鈴兒是錯的。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85Oam5ElAm
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOkfOnbK5g
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtk0Tre84B
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5QZ5LX6it
「……你咩意思？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwBA4s4sAa
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBD46jbZBV
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？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2ib187cF8
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEZQpiUN2u
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DRa4pTLLH
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOrqSAVuMK
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0buxCei9v
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMctQjR6k1
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGolH0b5pAp
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBsLXBX9AA
「阡迴之門？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8miUOC708
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1q1I6KI3vo
「跟我嚟。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EMOAh6oic
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqicfKukzTb
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIunebJixBo
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk8wqycI7o
「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。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGJVCjQXlV
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIqIkWFa1X
「叮…叮……」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNAcTTEUpLn
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dlySVnXqx
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSGBNaqDyl
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qUAe4YeJS
「就會咁。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n7iHuvtBQ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpN7wNOzfh
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikEMFJo5eZ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUZFcPMgKy
「係阡迴旅館？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3xxcf1k9x
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EbYNL7pvL
「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。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhNG1mc9nu
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUli6pJBht
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqhiBI04hu
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAIjSGayrv
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMlhHivyjZ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfp1UDqJxc
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92JjAElnEv
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBOsXIKMHN
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfRb5biKwg
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4YB4SFn9q
沒有回去常世的未來。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bjGtY2um3
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0SHFg1QMj
「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！」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDtujcqeft
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRIx8MpPXf
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKPpeGtgnO
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyRe62RiaK
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiA5xOhMhXS
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3r5lpQja6
可是，卻——383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxuSVq9SCF
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzSHtyhURC
「無。」鈴兒說。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnx1UfrHlh
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzWUGC5wt8
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrVKRRRJpT
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqzJxVNH71
「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。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh574uhLYM9
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz7jujFCsN
「真心咩……」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaon0VWkNQQ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyQyvr4WGE
「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？」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡip96gTl5Qm
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4ZYBJvWlD
我一時間答不出來。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hddrWqrNd
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KOF2QAJe4
回家？當然了，我想回家。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMJHBTLSXK
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2M1YVbsHWY
但之後呢？383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROgjsFeOWL
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6eAwZbgZl
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？383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6ydTjVy3J
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThYt6Z6BeX
我甚麼也不會成為的。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWHMS8TYy9
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9GZ4qJW7B
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？383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWLELckwFc
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oee7KxhQG
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCiCcz7NI3
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeg5I5cQslQ
「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。」383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktXbAKlMPZ
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WOrm6hGMa
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKU0vLmv1oB
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RHmNk58oz
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDrFQsUPie
383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwl1fC0m3xc
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。383Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q5sYJ3K8z
