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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwUThgkMee
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMaMZYvYfr
「啲人呢……」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL9iHdkpQt
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3d2P80wOc
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0D0MLGbA2K
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLm7nlTQ17
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！！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZIOZExadE
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWvnR6uBzw
「……係……度……啊……」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuCuMtABXZ
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98R391SQOQ
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！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3kk4IHa2d
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpNlfKZVlL
沒有，沒有，沒有！！門後沒有阡迴旅館！我被困在平行宇宙了？！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLurv4Fhe7g
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtde9KNYh9g
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！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkj3Fd4Sf4
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIxLw7m3hk
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！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEM3QY2C4Qt
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6ZEPTLwrq
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？345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZzEGTbAsY
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40yqlclN2i
「喵～」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYb4ayoVar
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTe70NaKTb5
「渺…渺渺？！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡat7fa4mY0C
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqdyAMAV5A
頹然坐在地上抱頭的我，卻突然聽到貓叫聲。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jJzh9COAs
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDbPdsip0F
「叮鈴…」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4c9iTaUZl
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVqEnlzhVy
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？！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRah9jVuE3
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiTjo2Q0nh
「渺渺？！你係邊啊！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sRIfSNBZD
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OY1trsO4H
我站起來東張西望，卻始終沒法鎖定渺渺的方向。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKxw51nM8E
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1dGsB0B0C
走廊盡頭有人！！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjx9yT51ATh
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQws2YH3bB
「……小姐！等陣！！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb1fkE9oXE
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbfdJXT8sgD
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！！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSMsdAw0jx
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJ7qrIEoj8
「等陣！！求下你，停一停！！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Epym1PeAr
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrrmOWFaCF
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！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFzy7A7vpq
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVKJLJBmDD
不能……我不能停下腳步！這樣會被身後的虛空追上……345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnADGYTBjlx
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoagY3edu6
等等，那人是！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9x1Yd1Z7f
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnKhCBl7cb
「鈴兒！！我係度啊！！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkX80jLvui
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8P6hxtorKH
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！！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIHI0cKGhN
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQppMfjJaq
「等埋我…求下你…唔好連你都扔低我……夏！鈴！兒！！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGc3BsCGVG
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl51j5zpap7
「砰！！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixM4ldkM18
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9YQCG0hYY
「哎呀！嗚…」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsWq8rMNzv
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFPwkSy7L5
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！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjzACrOKh4
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDTA88Wsh3
「……我識得你？」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbHoBepasN
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvJg256vtE
咦？345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkL7xxIDtOk
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIm1zBRY1Z
等……等，哪兒來的門？我在哪兒？345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBkX5kdmvG
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvrUbNmsiT
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhErTAWBZ4
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjPnN0osjv
一看便知這是醫院。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh04prlcAz3
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYQicJUYCD
「鈴…鈴兒…我頭先…嗄…你聽我講，真係嚇死我…」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WVj03kcmf
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQdTpjv4Ot
「先生，我地唔識對方，就請唔好直接叫我個名。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sOs93HDfK
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8ZNR9pEQ9
眼前的鈴兒，極之冰冷。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNWUU1ZMcJ
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6uYLbGIZd
「但係……」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26hosybB7K
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2dQFkBMuu
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KgzS8ZPfL
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkfSUq88MW
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPVMiLURfd
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTdukUWnSV
「我返去做野先。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4x5HOozKcp
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNjHIZhHwc
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiNeGdzmok
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGRoIKlKdK
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？345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqH71DSqGk
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BZbBeyomH
但馬上我就看出端倪了。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeK6jyxiyzO
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡem9Pa6kd55
無論是那邊那個醫生手上拿著的摺式手機。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVFsL04yLnY
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCVFy21uqu
還是在角落中放著的顯像管「大牛龜」顯像管電視。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Awr2teH7S
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecHJYEMigR
這兒不是未來，不是現在，不是平行宇宙，更加不是阡迴旅館。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUCMYbZahG
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzQkPEyR2H
這是過去，鈴兒成為阡迴旅館職員前的過去。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEO9rpIsxWB
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3UYxS1nLt
［13座 西翼4/F］345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmae3Vu9O7
［安寧病房］
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfA1t7bkLmF
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rbgg7Qgum
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhHqCqHD5V
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVDjYlPIY8
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1cXMO9YFo
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxlEOVInf8
我知道甚麼是安寧病房。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3naNXDj59b
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3tzA6B2eU
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGPlYoy648
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEACTEndzJ0
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKZPFOy91W
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVL5au7YUU
「……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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28riX5fEVt
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcu591eYe5
「明白。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2q6ymAJQlk
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzbaMufgU2
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXgJEgba50
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYAcMm634r
好冰冷，她的表情。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8E8eMTiyyl
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkYwGZ9QVz
好陌生，她的身影。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtMj0C0L3Q
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HfF1HgCuq
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。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirKSPnmqei
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAk4TWqyjMm
「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。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwU14nAXtgh
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2oc6aQFlf
「等陣，聽日入住嘅新病人，點解……無資料？」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8KQyoth8k
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtIMKoNM9o
「除左夏姑娘之外，大家都出返去做野先。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeBLumYFmR
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45Q7HQ0qBY
「係。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2uH186Aps
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszMiptNkWw
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzV5tGezT0F
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zxn9ZKvjq
「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。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQkrXHGitl
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5aGgolv00
「好。」鈴兒簡短地點頭。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNQjNFqLkb
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUwS1ePGgN
「你就唔問下點解要搞到咁神秘？」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsHWDG09g1
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXBbsnDLOZ
「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。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDXsZHyHus
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipFAj9tmdm
「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。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xrFlViixH
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdc36tfJg0
「咁原因係咩？」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQt25ZdobO
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJR7p1Bxfx
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……」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQjt4UnxOc
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZN3OmkSiU
「喵！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PHE8UKMFA
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74K0hzQNa4
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？！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE349qt3MJ
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lmPCQDV6k
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！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwV52ZLUEQ
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UIEMazgmx
「渺渺，等埋我！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPdCi77aBo
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHQqt4XHpx
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！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMjc58Nn9O
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15ISfjUiKB
「渺渺！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntfIJPBf16
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35Rhbrw7rG
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！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eQ3JDT6jF
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2YnsNfk24
「渺渺！嘁……真係，肥成咁點解可以跑得咁快！？」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFbsaqqWrl
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAKeSg0DWN
「喵哈？！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMB6loK2Gc
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveXhnXtVNB
在走廊盡頭的牠聽到似乎有點生氣，但還是在那兒等著我。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK31GJkiiVw
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2KQTRkdBN
急步追上的我才一拐過那個角落——345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvcTKNCn2A
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFPhz5zX1y
「叮……叮……」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dlBMqw8W6
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY303mGO4UR
風鈴聲，在幽閉的走廊中迴盪。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHerSdJDkpL
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF45S9sSxML
「…嗄…呼…」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMirCQ5OzXK
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdj3E93KZiM
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMPkJDmY1m
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmB3nTATETZ
風鈴聲，來自阡迴旅館。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHAnoG4iKd
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUATXtQ7Kxm
「叮……叮……」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNI81RDueT
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1wrMlhdZY
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5U9euoC5od
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhZH5H3yap
找到了！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5lkmXY374
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI9jCmgkQu
「喵！」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgjnTRdOda
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2CxSRqGc0
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！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElg0qnre7u
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBTqXKvJWG
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJW0gRdmMCu
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SJp8wfoqX
回來……回來了！345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQbEUkrDkR
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35KSKJ9SxC
「呼…呼…」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCLsHeVzbT
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5yWHOkxbu
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmoGNPuucV
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19ae22qWW9
「返嚟啦，溫年柏。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl445AfvuPf
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLw0M9z9Qe6
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。345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQxPyGuoPT
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7d9ho5dUm3
「你係……」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4zbCZsBp1
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9y8QKNQyLe
「熟人。」345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61FuTxRjYS
345Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGrS0vhJK8
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。
