把手吹乾後我推門而出，才沒走出幾步就發現這兒只有一片死寂，耳邊甚至因太安靜而微微耳鳴。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsZoy06Tq9
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUcVXIc2p3
「啲人呢……」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7yBxXYX9m
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqZbsx13XR
穿過那扇門不出所料地回到宴會廳，那兒只剩下空空如也的舞台。晚宴的圓桌上只有吃剩的食物，它們還是暖的，牛扒被割出的一小塊上有叉子插著，紅酒從杯邊滑下明顯是剛剛被喝完放到案上，一切一切如同人們在吃食途中突然憑空蒸發般。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNVODEJoUM
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimxrRmgf3E
全身起了雞皮疙瘩的我轉身跑出：「喂！！有無人啊！！有無人係度啊！！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8H9lb3bxV
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2R7MWDCAj
「……係……度……啊……」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkE342Mwddk
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzPjoyqpk0
除了我自己的迴音外只有一片寂寥，逢門就開，見門就讚的我始終只是普通地穿過門框，門後卻沒有阡迴旅館！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAc22LRSvu
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fZO5xoxfp
沒有，沒有，沒有！！門後沒有阡迴旅館！我被困在平行宇宙了？！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QmzPn3OqB
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovZd2DRqtB
這時只是用來展示不同平行宇宙可能性的空間，阡迴旅館沒有時光機的功能，我們並非真正到達了未來，所以在「展示」結束後，這空間也開始消滅了嗎？！等等我還在這兒啊！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQsWhym8Pg
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2MJkxTIME
我把臉貼到玻璃窗上望向酒店外，外頭只是一片漆黑，連地面也不存在！整座酒店就如懸浮在虛空之中，我也連忙把從酒店內逃出去的念頭打消！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdZj1C7q8u
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3g7FtLmZM3
現在怎麼辦，現在怎麼辦，我要永遠地困在這異空間之中了嗎？418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjOEdkNyPP
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkke32XTR9y
「喵～」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uBuawQckD
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJtDfDCIji
「渺…渺渺？！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQA2wg5hwOd
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAOZnouYNU
頹然坐在地上抱頭的我，卻突然聽到貓叫聲。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSXStedxqNu
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWM1Ss7cPfK
「叮鈴…」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWAuU6BSrT
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXo52g1o9u
風鈴聲！真的是渺渺？還是鈴兒發現我還沒回去所以折返救我了？！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vQZW84qxo
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERqFlJ1PjU
「渺渺？！你係邊啊！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7AjGRLhSZ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyahRHmSur
我站起來東張西望，卻始終沒法鎖定渺渺的方向。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjC5LDUNpY
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDRuOgKBQJ
走廊盡頭有人！！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQh4sM1wbP
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKZiBVaq8x
「……小姐！等陣！！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctYEtTUMYn
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFDjnqxG7p
那個「女生」對我的叫喚充耳不聞，繼續向走廊深處步去，不行，這兒就只有那個女生在了，不能放她走！！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy95brG7VnO
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8CBTsUjSA
「等陣！！求下你，停一停！！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQIqMeNEn3
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nYLUJzawU
更可怕的事發生了，隨著我追向那女生，我身後的酒店竟然開始淡出！牆壁地板燈光漸漸沉沒於虛空之中，視野中的景深突然變長，走廊深似無盡，身後的昏暗正洶湧而至！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCLdsTq6p9
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaAqEJuEQJ
不能……我不能停下腳步！這樣會被身後的虛空追上……418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zGYh2WpbX
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RiFKVC1mH
等等，那人是！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SIwjRpFeX
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZuImcNTpN9
「鈴兒！！我係度啊！！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPWdwQowKX
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhlqZXHBjO
追……追不上！我和鈴兒之間的走廊不斷伸延，她就在視野之中，但我卻永遠追不上她！！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTimaEHJFBd
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5O699EsBi
「等埋我…求下你…唔好連你都扔低我……夏！鈴！兒！！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSlxgZD3bs
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlyk3dODjS
「砰！！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQbSjw6PQd
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxs5DN4NlfN
「哎呀！嗚…」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8IFqhGah2
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7ECq9Ih17
收制不及的我狠狠地撞到關上的門板，狼狽不堪的我連忙推開門：「鈴兒！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0Nn97Yz0u
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3DEtjFOB1
「……我識得你？」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROxo5WWRb2
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVofqoE1h2
咦？418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQiwjCPsQv
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSewQkUtxJH
等……等，哪兒來的門？我在哪兒？418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCWMU880B1
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaagOwnyR9
氣喘如牛的我站直身，發現自己正身處於一條走廊之中，米白色的牆壁，灰色膠地板，還有分隔病床和走廊的玻璃窗。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡut56rnuuH7
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloZzdFbDJT
一看便知這是醫院。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSd7fQ0FwA
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJMqgiLjle
「鈴…鈴兒…我頭先…嗄…你聽我講，真係嚇死我…」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MepXWWoJS
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Jy2J88bpv
「先生，我地唔識對方，就請唔好直接叫我個名。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbCjZIPI9h
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv73enAMTe
眼前的鈴兒，極之冰冷。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3j3wou99J
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9ICPYItmn
「但係……」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlb5mkHlRah
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVrKkPCIjA
她眼中沒有一絲光彩，沒有一絲生氣，只看她的雙瞳如在凝視深淵，甚至不知她是死是活。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwPWszwp8b
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQkqV4X5bq
我剛剛撞在門上的側臉和鼻翼還隱隱作痛，如果是真正的鈴兒理應至少會關心我有否受傷之類。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILWbS1N0Ec
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQTNEzMNML
「我返去做野先。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qdgLw94xV
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gT25AjScA
鈴兒眼中只有冷如冰霜的鄙視，那陌生的冰冷表情使我不寒而慄，但其胸前的名牌是寫著「夏鈴兒」沒錯。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsraUPpR7LZ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTIdYpOuPl
看著遠去的她，我完全摸不著頭腦，她突然怎麼像變了一個人似的還不記得我了？418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAELumqHDnO
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBYBq2NEYZ
但馬上我就看出端倪了。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNrP8FwlV9
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIzzytfOU5
無論是那邊那個醫生手上拿著的摺式手機。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSptqVZwAtr
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUneFX5yVb
還是在角落中放著的顯像管「大牛龜」顯像管電視。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP17uIqM86s
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ll5umP2Nq
這兒不是未來，不是現在，不是平行宇宙，更加不是阡迴旅館。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6RLMi9q18
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxTTNsFsaY
這是過去，鈴兒成為阡迴旅館職員前的過去。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYto3Z41RI
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMbQKB5nEv
［13座 西翼4/F］418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYyLgveYUS
［安寧病房］
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aQ1erJ6DP
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQZyY9nHgU
走廊外的門牌上如此寫著，加上鈴兒的打扮和名牌，她是安寧病房的護士。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWbcXywWKG
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBGlT23T9M
才一想起剛剛她那神情，那恍如宣告對一切都不感興趣的冷漠表情，除了陌生外我更感到胸口一陣悸動和沉重，如被重物壓住般沒法喘息。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98wXqbwBvm
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTIqxDF4ue
我知道甚麼是安寧病房。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEL4rmQOKq
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGjan1RUHm
安寧病房中的病人都是到了無藥可治的地步，入住這兒非為了治療，而是透過醫療手段減輕離世前痛苦，使其人生最後的時光不用滿身被喉管插著，能保有最後的尊嚴，而且盡可能無痛地渡過於常世中最後的彌留。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBdLoK3yh9
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOLnh61Q1i
鈴兒走到走廊盡頭進入一間房中，身在平行宇宙的我如隱形人，只要不動聲色就會自動被無視，即使好像剛剛那樣和鈴兒說話她也會馬上忘掉，所以我也這樣大刺刺地跟上。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhojknpsw7
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MUkzDJ1Cm
「……預計佢撐唔過今晚，通知佢屋企人嚟見最後一面做好心理準備。」這房間似乎是個迷你的會議室，當中一名像是護士長般的人平靜地說著。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuybtIpMgUk
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKak31D9c3b
「明白。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdj4yHVDIGa
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4OaRDbdmU
鈴兒的回答沒有一絲起伏，連悲慟都沒有，在這死亡每日上演的安寧病房之中她是如此習以為常。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITHAVBnO1l
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLUrREqYj2
好冰冷，她的表情。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgitcxHWh3
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJpDmRv6iJ
好陌生，她的身影。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8f83bbeQd
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ997IW5W2JB
鈴兒在自己的筆記簿上一邊寫字一邊說：「我會通知工友Standby，盡快清好張床俾新病人。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaRPUiqrQP
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipWqYTz1yt
「嗯，至於其他有離世風險病人嘅名同床號已經係你地手上，要多加注意。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEMpj6swMV
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoakJVpGfoA
「等陣，聽日入住嘅新病人，點解……無資料？」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqwr7gomzx
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFaRmiF5qZ
「除左夏姑娘之外，大家都出返去做野先。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWBwzK493L
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNRBd4Iw8h
「係。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2veNAxCJSb
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVQuhSl44P
其他護士點點頭轉身離去，還順手關上門，我當然站在那兒繼續聽。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiZf8QumVL
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8dDrT9ZUh
「聽日嚟嘅新病人會訓佢張床，夏姑娘，我希望你可以負責佢嘅入院手續。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNpAvfyDld
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1TqCwxLec
「好。」鈴兒簡短地點頭。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0q2YQZydQ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpV1QCzQ6xe
「你就唔問下點解要搞到咁神秘？」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxJdPd2G6K
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEyCk70wAX
「我認為自己無需要知道，如果我有需要知道，護士長早就俾咗資料我。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmNu8nFsrG
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2LQLuH2aQ
「當然，但理由我希望自己親口講你知，你會主力負責佢，其他姑娘如非必要同緊急都唔會同佢有咩溝通。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcj6HtvduW
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ku0atZpXD
「咁原因係咩？」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaSIAmiRxg
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9svbuQr7Z
護士長拿出一份文件：「你之前有無睇新聞？嗯，身為護士嘅你雖然只係負責安寧病房……」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleysDt5QDj
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbjgP4DqYx
「喵！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIfheXivDb
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnq38UmWtiO
突然間我腳邊傳來一陣毛茸茸的感覺，我連忙低頭一看：「渺渺？！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpvhNS9Ckk
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9HJavF5fV
米色的毛球不知從哪兒鑽出，在我雙腳之間以尾巴蹭磨，然後推開虛掩的門從縫隙溜了出去！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMB1Nu3QIX
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalOpeaLkcc
「渺渺，等埋我！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhRviBZzlD
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzIJGaTn7I
是來接我嗎？正如那時候我迷途至阡迴旅館時，也是渺渺在引路，牠知道回去的路！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwSCvKTRmB
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnsiuJty1u
「渺渺！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7XIV5tSaP
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdYtwz2TTi
難得看到回去的希望，雖然很在意鈴兒的過去但是待會兒問她就好了，怎可能放渺渺跑掉！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYg30hpbDL
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdQtMhbzzm
「渺渺！嘁……真係，肥成咁點解可以跑得咁快！？」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lmYobiOLJ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLiw3L0YAS
「喵哈？！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeqpbEMiMZ
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9J4XxrFzi
在走廊盡頭的牠聽到似乎有點生氣，但還是在那兒等著我。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRagDIlKor
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtUtQq6Gpi
急步追上的我才一拐過那個角落——418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLvvNtOomj
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6CdyQLZ50
「叮……叮……」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtmiKPvOSH
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUG581urB3
風鈴聲，在幽閉的走廊中迴盪。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SebYrScwq
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImf6orejow
「…嗄…呼…」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAy2TTyIiT
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xTsHa6jwg
深呼吸，閉上眼，我如鈴兒那樣以心傾聽，聞聲辨位，試圖找出風鈴聲的來源。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpEuLEkdGO
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCATdx2Krma
風鈴聲，來自阡迴旅館。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPcTKJcLum
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7XcjZAdUc
「叮……叮……」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoRNe0150Q
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgNpoDktyY
鈴聲相當悅耳，閉眼靜心傾聽能使人想起盛夏之中，青天白雲之下，屋簷邊陲的琉璃風鈴迎著夏風輕輕搖曳奏鳴。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDkMUm44hV
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1m11qHoFD
找到了！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeONeA72wZH
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHlGWaOAe0
「喵！」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxh1SSTXu3
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWsQvvO9nq
渺渺幾個躍動從地板跳到我小腿，爬過背脊然後騎在我肩上，我信步隨著風鈴聲傳來的方向推開一扇門！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeJIlx4D5q
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ564R01StBn
光芒將我淹沒，待其褪去後我看到自己正身在古色古香的阡迴旅館之中。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgOUFQvLiR
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJLSRTCNW8
回來……回來了！418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrt9UmEFsc
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVoaUXKuRh
「呼…呼…」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLGllgXoYW
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8IuNFqTLo
定眼看四周，我卻發現自己正身在阡迴旅館的頂樓。為甚麼我這樣肯定？因為在我身旁的天井可以看到最高處的天花板，木樑木柱在天花板四周交織出木塔的巨大屋頂，而這層沒有任何房間或門，就只有半開放的戶外空間。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtI1DUWEquh
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6TKllYasK
「返嚟啦，溫年柏。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8I2jYz8vI
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNSqDMsjOF
與木欄柵相對著的是一個小露台，露台朝西迎向夕陽，那兒鋪著榻榻米，放著一張矮桌和座墊，一個沒有見過的男人坐在那兒，身穿白袍背對著我，一些茶具齊整地放在深木色的矮桌上冒著芬芳的蒸氣。418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy96CB1kgpm
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OsViWbWal
「你係……」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZBeqcDMCE
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOHGufjRqh
「熟人。」418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77hr9EEyYA
418Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRnVy99Z9B
本來迎著夕陽的男人回首向我微笑，即使他戴著眼鏡也看得出他滿臉倦容，但一對上眼我卻感到心頭一陣猛跳，好像看到久違的老朋友一樣，盡管我不認識眼前的男人。
