「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2CUclWmix
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTq098pbFx
「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？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwIhfzXptx
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD49oMnA3Kc
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGgLQEnte7
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4reFMG8edB
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAOlZCucym
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIQyXkDQPG
「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。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9NjwFSrj1
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXGpuv8SOn
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xKv7PNnca
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpbr7PaH54
卻使我心頭一震！513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzT8u5A68p
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAahST6l2vm
「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。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡco45WhJRq8
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLMEbxPxry
甚麼解鈴之人。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWOb85Znp1
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZdShaC84A
「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？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgHfrMjZsk
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtmSbnwfr9
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqtNSAQTma
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DVEdZWCQm
「我無。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTqWFdEuAK
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAde0dyBoa
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uipeATEGS
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZtG2KaI6t
「鈴兒……」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPojuNVGDWp
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gZipWW0kv
「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。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfzimTcALh
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiHyMlnZBn
「你真係無事？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmXXTQXH1c
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAmEeOo8Wr
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NSm0LN0HG
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKb9NykBjl
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QSjsp6iMS
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7iIzmeZhW
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnqiIcSdX3
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8zGbHGrmP
「明……明白。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhMuNcIvF1
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqffLzmZpUu
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！513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JMy8PVWPR
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNH7nd2jgY1
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKTSdD3nWU
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuG13lr5W3z
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBCw7Fjsf3
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DFIGXEH2J
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOMn4coKQG
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM15QszFgnI
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSpZ6WmiK2
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2n3eYDufY
「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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUyoDLJiyw
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXB1Ejg6zJ9
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6FUWZaJDG
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7lPlH0SVb
「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。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qJojYQQH0
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLD1tyno8l
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwRSr3tlKN
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqh3ECasFF
「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。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUJKpwCkYA
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln2HT1tYQA
「好。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoNaoHEX8w
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuxGG92NXs
沙漏中的沙被停下。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNb7TZFUdl
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPodURy3d5
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0C2iauAyBw
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SmYRnniAF
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoIElPNRMv
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9J1p95B3u
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2B1l8NSrC
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5thtzzL9d
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEvQVNthT3
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCKnTp3nod
「呃……呃……」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpwELbJyzi
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwLVBXcKOM
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRWy7e71BY
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaeJHrtiwr
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡri7G1jJ6rQ
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJg97IHwKD1
「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。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4CXgHvoHR
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0EuujaPxq
「……」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXSROPOMCo
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8OEEEZCvQ
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDF8Jxv6fT
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyticv3zFv
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTg7117cL2
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw3IMeE3Efm
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVosph2r7g
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12VhkoqWSU
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSn9F04YuY
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtF1SB7YdhU
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTuGAFLRwt
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4Q4uadx3T
假如鈴兒是錯的。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6EQLA2jOH
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHVjPFtw9u
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r2yInH863
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBx6Ry185zL
「……你咩意思？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnqZkiJUyR
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBIkRzvbuv
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？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoVByOk0jG
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiB3Yqy0Dr2
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gkbXKl5QZ
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUUiQdzuWJ
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSUWDpAUaO
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoJm2jK4mQ
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVt55Sm2fe7
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq45KbYTzev
「阡迴之門？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjkGNuLeQ6
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQmTFXN96e
「跟我嚟。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPZTK6wWRs
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjxr4M0iFT
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVKbTrSp1s
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4flxMmSblk
「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。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEUnJcdPYG
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbY2a1QlrbW
「叮…叮……」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGj9KYHVYf5
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNoTcXzxaB
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2XRkR6aVH
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HB3XuJo5V
「就會咁。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBTZPVqgFu
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZy7EKHS37L
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUj0OPdZ6m
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBtGfIAQCn
「係阡迴旅館？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FqsKV0sPG
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB15bvAbWir
「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。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQiuRZ1v6S
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwudnEKbdXB
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwZWQERzSP
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rJINBfbou
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMECvrx0wR
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZppjJ1ak1p
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuInQ9F9ttK
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJoEEfBf2D
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiY5ZeBy7t2
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdoh98U0Bh
沒有回去常世的未來。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4G1yT6LlWz
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoI1bZs63i
「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！」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlQFsLzVbh
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5e8oXi8lCI
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzhYoANUYU
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLM6Zrl7e0
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFMQkohn9F
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RsvaZVmDq
可是，卻——513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfrJRJ9Yip
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8eD5SHpt2
「無。」鈴兒說。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81ArEsWGbm
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvj2vD7TLSf
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsVfMABtXR
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5MN2q0NDq
「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。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgarpg0ZDcW
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYLFYPb1Hn
「真心咩……」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAsV7L2CTA
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnqSrSdIBc
「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？」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzr6fyRs0y
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6vzhor3EN
我一時間答不出來。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4XHlz2YDa
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRHxCxs5Vv
回家？當然了，我想回家。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRrVNAjuNW
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKrq1TUZgW
但之後呢？513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdaYbmy8z8
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc373xeyHEi
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？513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMe2negRuT
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJw5epnXvH
我甚麼也不會成為的。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FCIS8rgvs
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExJ1pdF7O1
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？513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AP0MeX15q
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbRraE4xx7
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZetvV7Q7uM
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltdQsipWtx
「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。」513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy65acgheP7
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6fnFoxQUcA
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7ibyoS3Xp
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiNsmLLLdF
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzZJr3eBbc
513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYial4ubt5f
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。513Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobQZMr5w2i
