「既然佢係呢度，一定會再見到佢嘅。」我說。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgPpNzUQFj
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBHqCycb4p
「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？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAnsFxZPBH
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKK9u2Z9QB
「就算我搵到返去嘅動機同地方？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8IwP1vRx7
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvkqIOCQxo
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6xb4VXkrs
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbp2JnHGiV
「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。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOtSyAP4Nj
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnplldujSn3
鈴兒清脆的聲音，在阡迴旅館的天井之間迴盪。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ndiyUNx1T
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtFw3T3IvF
卻使我心頭一震！713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJrrqaHJIS
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oHJGEepFB
「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。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2Nf4c9tY8
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBwdOi9PS3
甚麼解鈴之人。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNQcRflswd
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYdeX0HsLt
「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？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFMSCw95Pr
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5FRaxC7pv
鈴兒頓一頓，沒有說話。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgjQjZP9fB
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ92uW9iuT0E
「我無。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7rOqFPS2n
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMX1o7oyjc
接著簡單的一句，伴著心碎的哽咽。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6e3BujzAkk
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2I4sXdzeJE
「鈴兒……」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZaUTfvqjU
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHok4oqL9c8
「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。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QBy7qvQeg
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCroZXlnFVw
「你真係無事？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzPG3R0Bdm
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdr4BPR8AA4
眼中還有淚花的她嫣然一笑：「無啦，我由紀錄簿開始教你先。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5cShPUSKa
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvprXtj5ewf
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmOfcwAcHB
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5zJy1ltWV
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsX3XL3FOu
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXMNnbZ7Oi
「明……明白。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4bTpjLj7b
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNp2FzQI1N
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！713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQfL2fxynJ
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC4WfMtmBA
「最重要係提供動機，就推因素同拉因素而言……阿柏？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Hkv8QgTeZ
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTINHVnEET
「嗚…嗯？我聽緊啊？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROxXFFbaHt
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlf8cAiDvpp
鈴兒看看我，然後淺淺一笑：「今次就講住咁多先啦。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUOwZRRU6u
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgT0v995hE
「多謝你，前輩！」真的很善解人意呢。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNeyfRv7dN
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZXJ3apka4
「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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1p3Rujm0W
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7za6l5bYt
「時間流操作？有咩好練習。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDKXkGmGf3
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3TG39Hchu
「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。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjJjtZsYSq
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSgM7a2FjF
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolHvJTYhmj
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWNPCnKbKx
「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。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuJIT7Ixf1
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmt6spaGhWF
「好。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ipqKpKwud
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH300qTGuIf
沙漏中的沙被停下。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPyarudVN7
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4SjBgitlq
「唔係叫你暫定時間，係緩速。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uyuq0dpo3
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmrfJOjaIV
「我係打算緩速啊。咦？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzK7F2JQ2o
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0E3dLExJ8G
精神才一放鬆，馬上就見一縷沙滑落。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRiJGlxHcC
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaL2z2JMRd
「點樣？無想像中易係唔係？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyazTVdWLuH
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHRiwqXEIj
「呃……呃……」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyvWLo3Am7
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbpXpHSHh8
精度…沒法提高！簡單就像如履薄冰！713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWcgCWg8wr
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cA2DGdcwW
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRz0PhF7JF5
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiDu2zOuZB
「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。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yUHBFIAQH
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hB7KJNQfD
「……」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoz40L72GI
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgs5N6FkC9h
「你有心事？」鈴兒問。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdVaBcIrJo
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYM9ecSB2Y
「無就假，我同你都會永遠咁被困呢度？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ts425qFSm
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSL4KyXSIw
感覺鈴兒在迴避著我的問題。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIC9X1ZUUkN
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDzt9z1JPu
「職員係喪失歸去之處嘅人，我地嘅歸去之處就係呢度……」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1kRvUNl6l
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GdmjE7KxY
「你點知？」我打斷鈴兒的重覆，決定拋出我的假說。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMH9MaN7oBP
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR2KJRnYyp
假如鈴兒是錯的。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6dcDp2GMo
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMStS6dDUBg
假如鈴兒不是永遠正確的權威。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzq3UXbuI5
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5KFMenzq4
「……你咩意思？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaMN6kRsSX
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0B3VUXgrc
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？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYN9gWnFi6
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsWOi9t1sX
「……」鈴兒沒有說話。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ugmS4D4q4
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdq8K19L3o
「如果只係你自己嘅假設，有無可能其實唔係咁？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhklvVHNc3N
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGMs0yjmmv
「阡迴之門可以證實呢點。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsGuBqOGRO
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu9uluJf5M
「阡迴之門？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedd0rRiFE7
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVElhU5jlM
「跟我嚟。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZFhNnzyzd
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2eEgJSsrg
我與鈴兒走到了附近的一扇門。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBysRj4wLG
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbHf0pGklS
「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。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlvndAN8kU
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9FWAIahEV
「叮…叮……」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rIbeD9zAZ
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KHnapc1j3
風鈴聲響起，眼前的門框滲出微光。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwLlcAKmID
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pMNITj3K8
「就會咁。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFDsTxzWhE
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVMnRMfOrq
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDUB1vVHi7
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrICV85ALfh
「係阡迴旅館？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4tKspnS7y
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8twH0rrVAY
「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。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6KF6NZPp2
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjCCFABlFY
阡迴之門沒法通向不存在的未來。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6hNoWAneb
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZTImSkRFz
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gSoS9E8TC
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDn6hLdBcHN
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoQemePwEE
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNnBt7ozId
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbt1sT91DBr
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHirfENBjVx
沒有回去常世的未來。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF63tvmhojn
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMe6Ku60m0
「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！」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxTgdYGPi9
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUY2UTiZ8fe
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AlFOn84A2
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMMhnmCmgY
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdVwYMVbuj
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxc2jsA2nM
可是，卻——713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYzeu2SZt8
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wILaZTIfv
「無。」鈴兒說。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZLqRpMQob
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3tB02xdoU
「都話唔使理咩阡迴之門……」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWJ8rSAsQS
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU05GkZndI6
「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。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnDz8YoxeP
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hFb1uOvwb
「真心咩……」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimu3wEICZX
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YeD42RfAb
「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？」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡborprnAI2S
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEeOKybvZR
我一時間答不出來。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IOMAmICKa
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12IIDlumHU
回家？當然了，我想回家。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8opg3jAHS8
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKpMaeUilw
但之後呢？713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rVhpZup4a
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqNLseNfOZ
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？713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9ztPkYyWN
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwuEpPKmAm
我甚麼也不會成為的。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvZYmgfKVN
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVpMY1XV7S
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？713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVQjwA89zf
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J8XqNVXAL
我沒有答案……我「還」是沒有答案。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZjAWQB6lm
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFmSJoWjEJ
「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。」713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4xq7bt2xT
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiMbVUgHXX
等等——這二字我沒有說出口。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nHKTuRn4Z
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmZQWLqhar
她等我又如何？我還能說甚麼？713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nCqB3NmId
713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzHg6EVQzG
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。713Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbeDKXpH2U
