「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvw9eQaP5Z
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzT9uXb8jsS
「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？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMLoXjbJ8M
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmIyG6VaKL
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyPmR0Zv7z
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcQ8oiadff
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIq5XacCtqk
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNraIk744vN
「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。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrGtBlqzPZ
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthcuzr3CRM
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiuYf9EQ5t
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMEsn0q5tf
卻使我心頭一震！366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqaTXJfG3c
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcFn2rMZyi
「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。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhM5JNuC7U
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprbKsSbUI7
甚麼解鈴之人。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy5ulyY9cs
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1l5PiXujF
「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？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNViv150LS
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdmA3SFIu3
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtkSq06kuy
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviv4PNZGfe
「我無。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kSaqekfiX
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxrGpLNRe5
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGd4DuCcUpl
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07dOrFZJ0M
「鈴兒……」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51Bewbozmn
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVSDbCeCUH
「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。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsxnlcHaGy
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuWRaMynFE
「你真係無事？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNmUL3xvKb
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydC9bTIUDN
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5N9ZYN3n1g
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡczyWorNqpG
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1cPwZoHGa
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJrcJX7KNK
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBHaNq34vk
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2clrzBNzv
「明……明白。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1B4l6uLBOf
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLDC7J9JQk
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！366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSavaPxurn
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVrvptYKB8
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYswKmFbv2L
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhq6WyldOV
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡConK3yV6eo
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotJJ1XmR7B
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAs90lRMIW
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTN6XcZdeYN
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUvK0sc7no
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtmkiXdqPC
「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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEFAAemHzj
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GxmOGxFD9
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVQ71AuOPD
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmElDl5O1rY
「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。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3k1rwnLlRf
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5RKpdhkro
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkU5UmIayy
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYtGUXjGMj
「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。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtgzvCTNQm
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8ajVQS5JI
「好。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2h1Y5bIQx
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4d9wKxl9u
沙漏中的沙被停下。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeNuIAgcNX
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdapBNlQAN
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsI7ewbZwU
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGoirWH7Fc
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgmZdcU1pR
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYz6OoU60K9
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ94zFxHa7U
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14D7Ig3vrz
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvfP0AhFrI
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycDQpk47Nr
「呃……呃……」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfEPwq4URQ
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhSV8QIOry
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcuxyDeBqX
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2BPCFXWIJ
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIq3uN5XON
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK22oWUDZBk
「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。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7m7XlgCrcd
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvunr5pnxgr
「……」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ml7H2blIa
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaoQV0JtRh
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsb0nqP1KB
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdp5ln5vho
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4a6QWX73ru
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCedjMAcsLf
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB4UhB3jue
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWXGzgyEoG
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrmFsWlXYW
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ675jCReOZn
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKn6EqwxGXE
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsaZwYiQa7
假如鈴兒是錯的。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef6Ex598CX
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOyownRQAW
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PF06tbb8z
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡak1dpypCB9
「……你咩意思？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojqTtU1WtE
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYeLX1514l
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？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡut4FFpMTJt
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwcVFCIJB1
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolNfjsf4EF
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzgbm3qUqK
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySNaZKwHoG
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLDLKfjVc0
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTUIHxKWOV
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HqWVXaVmW
「阡迴之門？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamOIBHIWro
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZRBiE57MP
「跟我嚟。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJE7MqLgHZ7
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVwPRGiVP7
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqdwyCSRHV
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LdSBERHXM
「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。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyPNWGM3KQ
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0iIpBRHbL
「叮…叮……」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkUEUwjGeq
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpBZlrFl06
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hwuJppUcD
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJEughpbxG
「就會咁。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6v8UAfNge
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlsytsRJQ1
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7uEbmkHdM
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtu3MCQZ9X
「係阡迴旅館？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kWqQAnyQJ
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4Vnfn9PxD
「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。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiECO9JDwC
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMu73a7wau1
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRFGVpp7Q6
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymVle7UeRd
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHYmgCim8EK
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiWSDsvZfg
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsgXDcSVuy
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4t2d9on4b
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwE60xe6vW
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZgUicSePZ
沒有回去常世的未來。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtYAzyRqkO
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOdRF2NqLB
「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！」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡektJTj1nZz
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8LIkRwUWE
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXXKMx6Jmc
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4XEvh2Wzb
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2gPDwXydC
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHLnTheiwu
可是，卻——366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnBB7fIJrG
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpHZrPjApA
「無。」鈴兒說。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzFVQLZDTl
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7zl6012Sv
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFIJUDFW7I
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYN7PdlUpG
「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。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocoUzvmKBT
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLNwlnoxC8u
「真心咩……」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡON1GfxgJjf
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotCBPOgDlt
「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？」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYUTFYsLYc
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGAlKmOOEX
我一時間答不出來。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ChxPHOjS4
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEJyqdrQPv
回家？當然了，我想回家。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHEVJHVjlA
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SLHyI5S5F
但之後呢？366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPVtopG2tC
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPH8Tw1pIzo
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？366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnFGFmaFHG
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8q4L3mk1q
我甚麼也不會成為的。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXxKYk107S
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCJLEL79WN
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？366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CRrhtI6oV
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshgi9q9BZ6
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAerMFBi6xl
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolt8dh7bmH
「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。」366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreJnNLMv6B
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8fcQG17u8
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXY9xGs7oDr
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqz8DbVPU7
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Gu6pZtCDy
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKVgZMDbdI
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。366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWRGLHqyPu
