愛莉的真名自然不是愛莉，如她所言她是個攝影師。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMGB9T9zD8
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q6o18EOcV
但準確來說，是前攝影師。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjfQeuXDe3
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGROFJBNCRX
「全職做攝影師而養得活自己嘅人唔多……好可惜，愛莉唔係其中之一。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpDBHRx398
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8vKUp8bZT
鈴兒帶我來到了天井下的接待處，從抽屜中拿出一張相片，上面都是鈴兒和大家在阡迴旅館中的日常照。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KPyL8pawB
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFJvUrUnDA
雖然不是甚麼美輪美奐的服飾背景，但從構圖，光影，看得出愛莉精準地捕捉了大家的身姿。笑著的鈴兒，彼此碰杯的阿力與阿倫，伏在鈴兒胸前撒嬌的渺渺……愛莉的相片之中滲透著日常感，看畢後有種心中暖洋洋的感覺。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wB9FmLuy0
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoWKT6mAua
「好靚係唔係？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOanuDghIuR
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ohxTbQojU
我看著相片中的鈴兒說：「嗯，好靚。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTAuoVbInv
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr78b6z89zg
「愛莉嘅影相技術無異係真材實料，但係想喺香港做一個全職攝影師實在太難，唉。」鈴兒嘆一口氣道，「所以佢亦無辦法，只有向現實低頭，做返會計。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuj4grYzON
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWiCYoBXDR
「吓，會計？咁咪完全唔關事……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2ZQHaqMiX
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LrDCwzxmu
「嗯，仲無晒私人時間添。」鈴兒說，「佢係某晚OT到凌晨，忍唔住話落街買咖啡，結果走咗去天星碼頭旁邊忍唔住對住個海喊。又唔想返上去寫字樓，又唔可以一走了之，因為要靠份工生活……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPviOcVqiTC
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwwwVx4Rsc
我輕咬下唇：「我好明白……大家生活都唔易。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7Ib8iLkTR
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12ztCw87XK
「但佢真係好鐘意影相，咁嘅生活……佢根本無返去嘅理由。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGy7kjs5bEm
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKrjCnaX02
「返去嘅理由…」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYeiJNYgxf
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQViFoWAAg
「之後係大廈入面蕩失路，搵唔到升降機大堂，行出大廈只見到阡迴旅館，愛莉就係咁樣嚟到呢度。」鈴兒說。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOyzFRU5LA
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuedkgD3E2
我搖頭道：「唔怪得佢唔想返去，係度佢可以盡情影相，又唔使擔心生計，我係佢都唔走。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKKnUPP2NH
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLhZPFIPNl
「當然，但問題就係呢度：留係阡迴旅館之中，無論留幾耐都好，佢永遠無可能成為真正嘅攝影師。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhvyymcxFB
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQh7xQh4uju
我心中一沉。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokHL9FQzPm
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c8RAF6qRj
因為我意識到阡迴旅館的限制了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoweptB2lc
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tpKbNMT9I
這兒沒有時間流動，雖然我們不會老去不會疲累，但也意味著在阡迴旅館中沒有成為更好版本自己的可能。阡迴旅館內時間是停滯的，所以人生也會定格在這兒。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYolRQY1lQQ
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2zidd3Z9V
只要留在這兒，愛莉永遠沒法成為攝影師。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz32mI5EXKr
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BTDpxfJxP
只要留在這兒，我也永遠沒法……339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qgTJ5j0wu
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFlvsFR8gz
「唔好意思，遲咗。」旁邊的門打開，愛莉穿過門到達大堂。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvk3G3JG02q
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmGRdBJALv9
「唔緊要，係我同阿柏早咗到。反正我地呢度唔缺時間啦。」鈴兒馬上擺出開朗的樣子，果然在這笑容下是一顆體貼，溫柔的細膩內心。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjXKjKXaOs
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4H58Wqzmsk
「我始終想再睇多次。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64ndR4xycd
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijLw1NjwQq
「睇幾多次都可以喔。」鈴兒說，「嚟，我邊行邊講你知，阿柏。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDH09FTzR4B
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DVQ0wX92I
「哦…哦好！」我唯唯諾諾跟上。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nCIWNvNDl
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ppiNJJvIx
按鈴兒剛剛所說，她就是要使用名為「阡迴之門」的權能，通往時間和平行宇宙…？339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrDtAtGnTf
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Gfte6xduP
甚麼跟甚麼。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpd6Qh7LRW
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gyBp9Er1m
「阡迴旅館係所有道路嘅交匯之處，即使係唔同時間線嘅平行宇宙都包括在內。身為職員嘅我，就係要負責為住客打開阡迴之門，令佢地搵到返去嘅動機同地方。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡol4l9tjcEU
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaXeARVVYi
這時我突然發現鈴兒修長的玉掌結出了一個手印。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIxf0l7quE
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl58mqUvlV8
「例如——」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4SdbHsWs5m
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVujXZ9qRBg
隨她優雅的腰姿擺動往前走，鈴兒腳下的地板突然如泛起漣漪般輕晃，她別著的風鈴髮飾奏鳴出清脆的聲音。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaFW766zrK
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlG5QYq0fMh
「叮鈴……叮鈴……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDU7j5DXtOK
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpmpHKCxAG
鈴兒閉上眼，如同傾聽著風鈴在天井之中激起的迴音。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05ApNitu5w
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EPRJU4Thz
「嗯，行呢邊。」鈴兒張開眼回首微笑，然後信步往迴音最為深厚的角落走去。的確很明顯聽得到迴音從這邊傳來，原來風鈴是用來定位的方法。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEN9jOfWwMM
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvInfaeiCx
我們穿過天井下的大堂，迴音的殘響言猶在耳，天井化成巨大的共鳴箱，每隔幾步殘響都會再次掠過中庭，提醒我們前進的方向。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpxkNHiTR6
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29RYcLVXyx
「你睇呢道門。」鈴兒說。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXdr8MgVs6
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflj03TlhLT
「Hall 2B？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7f5svhTQxE
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp20vt8hM1S
這門的風格與阡迴旅館的室內設計格格不入，金屬邊框加上噴砂銅面相當歐式，門柄還是木雕花的長形原木，能看到木紋在凹凸浮雕上起伏。在門的正中央，以秀麗的英文寫上「Hall 2B」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6eHqvBT79
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjL9dn0DW8
「阡迴之門會複製出目的地嘅一扇門，之後穿過去就可以到達目的地。」鈴兒按著門把，「準備好？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNP55x9j45w
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzMZWCWFuy
我點點頭：「嗯。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSMaSEZkQA
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbDWMRjM9y
「唔係問你喇阿柏，我問緊愛莉。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSOwwBVMrh
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡausZr9deIk
愛莉失笑：「我準備好。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsNa4g1bST
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWWdvkCr9I
甚麼嘛，她還是會笑的。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UxXyOdufi
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRA7cLKA6cP
「嘎——」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnqVnMYqYM
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aqCILyG4U
鈴兒推開阡迴之門，我們三人魚貫地通過，門的後方竟然不是阡迴旅館的任何一個空間，而是一個宴會現場！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NHxFLzTSA
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDvurBMnvf
「呢度……！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV8rSAZJ09
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi0G5Blm9e
舞台前方大排筵席，人們都衣香鬢影，一桌又一桌的大圓桌旁坐著各國籍的各色人種，但他們都穿得相當體面，男的穿西裝燕尾服，女的穿晚裝裙子。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInDBFEwsQV
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡho3WVOxJgI
啊糟糕了雖然未搞清這是怎麼回事，但我穿著很舒服但絕不適合這兒的鬆身外套和運動褲……339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2pxoC1QVJ
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaIwjeiN4j
「咦？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrridhlBiW
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc3yjKlVrz
低頭一看，我身上不知何時都換上了寶藍色的西裝和皮鞋。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIdhWPmIeL
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaE8Vi2a4R
「幾襯你啊，阿柏。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyrrje7Y1s
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8BwxpxHo3
「多謝……你地都…我地幾時換埋衫？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVY0TLqCJd
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xRII04gHT
鈴兒穿上了酒紅色的長尾晚裝裙，高根鞋上的黑絲襪與晚裝長手襪互相呼應，而愛莉就穿上了橙色的晚裝裙加上優雅的長披肩。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCrCOOc90v
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FqTKQxBaK
「始終係嚟呢種場合嘛。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKa6qZxcGn
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZQnuiGF0n
我回首看看剛才穿過的門，剛好有一名侍者穿門而出，可以看到門後已經變回了酒店金碧輝煌的大堂，絕非古色古香的阡迴旅館。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnAnp6IaFh
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FCQKiWSWC
「呢度係……」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BoSFPeSJz
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfSGt4zdv3
環顧四周，我馬上看到舞台上的英文標題：世界新聞攝影基金會頒獎典禮，這倒算了，但最嚇人的是後面的年份。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSawltAt0l
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqc8RuvYQC
「等陣先！個年份係唔係寫錯？！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9quLZ2LqGL
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8BXwAAwMs
鈴兒說：「年份無寫錯，呢度係未來，應該話係多如恆河沙數無數個未來之中嘅其中一個。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfFj3xiGzK
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE352u3hci
「世界新聞攝影比賽，係世界上其中一個最重要嘅攝影比賽，同美國嘅普立茲獎齊名。但係後者主要係美國人先可以參加，所以……呢度可以話係攝影記者嘅殿堂。」愛莉雙眼閃閃發亮。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwjDX2pHki
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38zhhPNT6u
「各位先生女士，請大家就座，好快我地今晚嘅典禮就會正式開始。」舞台上出現同樣穿著西裝的主持人，他以英文發言，附近的人聞言也紛紛和正在聊天聚首的人暫時別過，然後坐回自己的座位上。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhKEDqjBqR
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0e2hgFp62
就在那瞬間，我看到了。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtfrUo4Q3t
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeU1VDocQg
主舞台前方的一張圓桌旁，一個女士與男伴坐下。那女士不是誰，正是我們身邊的愛莉！但是看年紀似乎年長些許，旁邊那個男人與她也表現親密，無名指上的婚戒……是他的丈夫！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIse0M64A8X
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cgWMq0qPR
這就是鈴兒口中說的「未來」！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87Nq5qsFTB
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TrrRCX0Ki
「鈴兒，我地坐邊？」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHaSyXiX4X
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz7KIDPGzn
這種場合都是預先分配好座位的吧，我們身為從阡迴旅館而來的人怎麼辦？339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijslVbvfYg
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAGGt6KI8m
「我地行呢邊。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetzDMPjJCm
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4C8cva4b0C
鈴兒領著我們逆人潮而上，賓客回到舞台前的座位，我們離舞台而遠去，如同逆著時間流而上一樣。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMW8YQh1Ql
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhT1OWL2fwX
就在我們再次穿門而過前。我卻看到那兒年長的愛莉正回首看著我們的方向！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4h6pqTQcs
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhE66o9B5hY
「嘎——」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJSvtbFOA6
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVSQWFPtbu
穿過大門，我們卻沒有回到阡迴旅館，而是回到了同一個宴會廳！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNervcubJpC
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpN4UCdXB5C
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCg0VJNfo7
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWiFWXrVGq
這邊的年長愛莉衣服變了，身邊的丈夫也換了一個人！339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNl0uQEY3LK
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF933f51Ke7
「呢度已經係另一個平行宇宙。」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN01iCToKuW
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0xeF0CFMG
鈴兒繼續前進，剛好我們這邊的門旁邊有著另一扇門，我們馬上又鑽進去。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFOQKsQyqY
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBFi9WhBt2
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4akmhumdR
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlW0idprms0
年長愛莉的衣服再次改變，身邊變成了一個較年青的男生。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUXczb7CwG
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3Fj07HpCr
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelXKm3hQa1
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBHTOudw4F
每次穿過門，舞台旁邊的愛莉其打扮都會有些許不同，或是頭髮長了，或是晚裝變了款式，或是頸飾的長度不同，而她身邊的同伴也會男女老幼變個不停，其中一次最離譜是她肩膊上繼續坐著一隻鸚鵡。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoC15nX9Gl
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdKgrzypuC
但唯有那一句不變。339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTK3205d1B
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcyFiHybdZ
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnOHkrDphO
339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJ4hSiMw5w
終於我們停下腳步，駐足於這個平行宇宙之中。
