那一晚,我又做了怪夢,但不像以往的內容,夢裏有一種相距現代十分久遠的感覺,就像在一次睡眠中經歷十數個夢境般,內容過於混亂到醒來後已想不起一切。203Please respect copyright.PENANA7Vp8Ze499E
203Please respect copyright.PENANA8m78YGDYO2
鬧鐘未響,晨霧未散,新一天已來臨。203Please respect copyright.PENANATMvyyhcLaW
203Please respect copyright.PENANAzgXNBSpLnG
即使睡後身體沒有一絲回復,甚至更加疲倦,皮膚亦乾燥至極。總算完成四人份的早餐的另一方面,我雖疲憊卻沒有胃口,把一塊厚切白方包啃掉便前往診所上班。203Please respect copyright.PENANAuRDD9mPuX8
203Please respect copyright.PENANAKWv6klyMwC
冬天的早上額外的冷,平常會以慢跑的速度暖身;今天提不起精神跑步,空肚下反卻覺得這程度的寒冷沒有太不了。203Please respect copyright.PENANALnHTKiCZij
203Please respect copyright.PENANAiH8Rd9hxfl
「早安。」203Please respect copyright.PENANA0OlCUKWFf0
203Please respect copyright.PENANAzbq4qlP1MX
護士負責早上開業,總比我更早上班。203Please respect copyright.PENANAUfRJ8opIif
203Please respect copyright.PENANA4qqvqvLwBN
「早安⋯今天十五度欸,只穿這件夠暖嗎?」她驚訝地問道。203Please respect copyright.PENANAnmkLfcx5Vm
203Please respect copyright.PENANAxAYzRBbxPB
「嗯。」203Please respect copyright.PENANA9QRxdqsGKR
203Please respect copyright.PENANA6jnSmiVJNV
「別愛美不要命啊。」203Please respect copyright.PENANAkOdeVjGV29
203Please respect copyright.PENANAp06XtEUB3w
203Please respect copyright.PENANAKw3hHVRo3B
「⋯這裡是?哪裏?」203Please respect copyright.PENANALB4LJkOkF9
203Please respect copyright.PENANArLGeCY1VDg
聽這語調,「青」是剛睡醒。203Please respect copyright.PENANAgUp6zSQlNk
203Please respect copyright.PENANAJ05q1UMt6l
203Please respect copyright.PENANAeqsuCXxCJN
「…剛才是醫生你的聲音嗎?」203Please respect copyright.PENANA9gyqgCzTii
203Please respect copyright.PENANA3NvbmhqYRk
這樣懶散的聲音的明顯不是我。203Please respect copyright.PENANAciPeSjO4lU
203Please respect copyright.PENANAzaOZBVYGdZ
但為打圓場,只好說:「喉嚨有點怪⋯我去喝點水。」203Please respect copyright.PENANAE1JjApYTGe
203Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5sXFWW09n
在關上房門後,我立刻說道:「先給我記住,在別人面前不要跟我談話,更不要擅自動我的身體。」203Please respect copyright.PENANAMWgvOaG7xH
203Please respect copyright.PENANAHOd7tuZyx9
不知為何,跟青說話會產生莫名的不爽。203Please respect copyright.PENANA1S045ng5Sz
203Please respect copyright.PENANA8iFeb67sJn
而且不像稻荷,我們只能依靠口頭對話溝通,更加麻煩。203Please respect copyright.PENANAiXUU87xXGR
203Please respect copyright.PENANA1thJtyhvYJ
203Please respect copyright.PENANAXFJ8Wr0v4V
「放心吧,我作為神會有分寸的。」203Please respect copyright.PENANAJO1WxcJMJV
203Please respect copyright.PENANAGvwfGgsGcy
而壞事是會接二連三的發生。到為留院動物檢查的時間,我察覺我失去了言靈。203Please respect copyright.PENANAAZ7f6C8Xwp
203Please respect copyright.PENANAxY1GTX27L3
既聽不到,就連這邊的溝通也出了問題,無法如常傳遞,似是完全失效。昨天也是,鈴鐺聯絡不上稻荷,祂怎麼了?203Please respect copyright.PENANAShAooEwkVM
203Please respect copyright.PENANA396VajpDAT
幸好的是今天的人不多,基本上是以往討厭的文書處理,惟有今天十分慶幸。203Please respect copyright.PENANA8fVs9SqKRC
203Please respect copyright.PENANA29BgJgXzvx
下班後,一想到今後手術期間這傢伙還在體內,心裏便按捺不住不安。要是如青所說,失調來自積下的壓力的話,恐怕一輩子也不會康復。203Please respect copyright.PENANA3ywkDQhapo
203Please respect copyright.PENANAPHl0f1NHcC
何況就憑散心,真的能解決問題嗎?203Please respect copyright.PENANAIkRxGj5hec
203Please respect copyright.PENANAN6fg37YSMk
抱著疑問,我們到達目的地。203Please respect copyright.PENANAABUKD1P0Vi
203Please respect copyright.PENANA1UJV50Cb7A
「這裏真的是維多利亞港…?」203Please respect copyright.PENANAjJzgV9FBFR
203Please respect copyright.PENANAW5ST9LXfD8
一到步,青便對眼前的景觀感到驚訝。203Please respect copyright.PENANA7uAYuqbJxW
203Please respect copyright.PENANAuRqpRvn9dT
全因維多利亞港海岸在近年才終於完成工程。花上數十年,相隔兩岸的海域成為半水力發電廠的一部分,兩座發電設施將眼前的海洋包圍,設施在遠方射出的燈光要比對岸的景色更耀眼,說實很煩人。203Please respect copyright.PENANAIQT7jJi8Kl
203Please respect copyright.PENANAPc3SMKmd1L
「海裏空空的…是騙人的吧?」203Please respect copyright.PENANAOYQVQSNF6u
203Please respect copyright.PENANACqMSse7rSO
「不,這就是現在。」203Please respect copyright.PENANADc8YDKw0Wp
203Please respect copyright.PENANAynN1OJZgt6
「那生活在海中的大家呢…?牠們可以去了哪裡?」203Please respect copyright.PENANAFQALDKkFgw
203Please respect copyright.PENANAFihRZMnHb3
青的聲線變得脆弱,其話語所含有的無力就像一道道玻璃碎片,刺進靈魂的深處。203Please respect copyright.PENANAOZ6mHA1aDS
203Please respect copyright.PENANA4LbFoApnon
面對變得如此虛弱的祂,本對祂態度強硬的自己雖感到不忍,也只好將情感吞下,道出真相。203Please respect copyright.PENANAt1n2PMGjP0
203Please respect copyright.PENANAHcT5lb2OQa
「當時是說大部分被引導並安置於新界的自然保護區,或者運到海洋生態樂園作觀賞動物。但這是門面上的話語……據後世的考察,實際上被運走的只有少於十分之一。」203Please respect copyright.PENANAgFYusswOxF
203Please respect copyright.PENANAELcQF520XQ
「過去作出的犧牲無人能挽回,後世頂多立一個紀念碑。」203Please respect copyright.PENANAIB31S07Z7s
203Please respect copyright.PENANAj0FPtW59e1
我走向該塊石碑,牠們一個一個沒有名字,只有物種名稱被刻上。203Please respect copyright.PENANAfb5Yh4Kxft
203Please respect copyright.PENANA5RZ7nA30Hn
「這是謊言對吧…?世上才不會有這樣荒謬的事……」203Please respect copyright.PENANAFb6f7mfnVs
203Please respect copyright.PENANAeLivrKuYUQ
我保持沉默,迫使祂面對現實。203Please respect copyright.PENANA5rprpFPzGv
203Please respect copyright.PENANAqnNxaYkBAE
「我所一直在保護的東西都不存在了嗎…?」203Please respect copyright.PENANAbYgDxuHjAh
203Please respect copyright.PENANAGEvhD6wkYr
青把我使到海邊是有目的,我本已有這預感。203Please respect copyright.PENANAy0tYDPZ1yN
203Please respect copyright.PENANAe75ARayQOo
在青的角度,累積下的重要事物突然全數消失,失落是理所當然;同時令把事實塞向祂的自己感到不知所措。若有能夠安慰失去一切之人的話語,我想馬上學會,可惜現實沒有這樣簡單。203Please respect copyright.PENANANrSkaQT3l5
203Please respect copyright.PENANA04spFeRU4C
現在能做的,只能單方面聽着衪微弱的呼吸和嘆息,似在抽拉但沒有確實的眼淚,然而光是其聲音已令內心急速降溫。203Please respect copyright.PENANAKSTIkf623g
203Please respect copyright.PENANA4XLIcMtTGK
配合拂過的冷風,原來今天是如此冷的。203Please respect copyright.PENANAr1zS4EC7Fy
203Please respect copyright.PENANAi8vF7OPiyL
稻荷未曾向我表露如此的感情,因此不知道附身在感情上會有聯繫。也可能因為我與稻荷的記憶總是溫暖的,有祂在身邊就覺得自己甚麼也能夠達成。203Please respect copyright.PENANAX8UkyFRdOf
203Please respect copyright.PENANAnKo8124XgA
這種令內臟亦感受顫抖的惡寒,倒是人生第一次。203Please respect copyright.PENANAVlljEuUZ06
203Please respect copyright.PENANA9Uodyqfvg2
眼前空無一物的海上,發電廠的射燈掃過傳來一絲的溫暖,彷彿在提醒我們不可沉溺於過去的悲傷,然而愁雲可不是一時三刻,甚至一句話便能拂袖而去般輕薄。203Please respect copyright.PENANA97Q2zSvbXv
203Please respect copyright.PENANAQtfabvv8XO
另一方面,不像平安夜那天,這邊的海旁總是人山人海。把臉睡面向着毫無生氣的水面,我陷入反思、回想那天的決定。203Please respect copyright.PENANAiTKrznOA0k
203Please respect copyright.PENANAwq9pAnuxpM
正確與否依然沒有頭緒。但全因為我,阿傑和阿欣的關係會變差、阿晴和阿欣亦不會再接觸,無人獲得幸福,對大家而言是最差的結果。203Please respect copyright.PENANACBL8W07alP
203Please respect copyright.PENANAqSVttjfx4L
然後就我一人隨便揮去煩惱,毫不在乎的生活着……我真是噁心的人。203Please respect copyright.PENANAeKUZ1Eyj9j
203Please respect copyright.PENANA9UGcLK1Gmp
內疚換來一聲苦笑。203Please respect copyright.PENANAHN3LSHq6H9
203Please respect copyright.PENANAj5addhGfFN
身無一人,有堅持笑容的意義嗎?沒有,但至少我不想哭。203Please respect copyright.PENANATsxRwvcpO5
203Please respect copyright.PENANA1x1PYb789E
畢竟無人關心的淚水同樣無意義。203Please respect copyright.PENANAUpQzMAYrxp
203Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9cFZDkFid
看膩了、站累了,亦沒有動力回家。203Please respect copyright.PENANAhz8mFKuse7
203Please respect copyright.PENANAQUsCa42aAu
一人坐在椅子發呆下,突然有人向我搭話。203Please respect copyright.PENANA42Z3pLz7Xg
203Please respect copyright.PENANAK6fjXJuR09
203Please respect copyright.PENANAh3Mh9D8epE
「不好意思,這裏…有人坐的嗎?」203Please respect copyright.PENANA7imN5BR4au
203Please respect copyright.PENANA7lqWjJSD7g
向我搭話的是一名身穿西裝制服的中年女性。她手上的膠袋傳來載着鋁罐的碰撞聲,十分沉重。203Please respect copyright.PENANAQT8meWdZO0
203Please respect copyright.PENANAdjj1PpJ46k
「沒有…請吧。」我一回答,她便撥一下座位的塵埃,坐下後則掏出一罐外國的啤酒,啪咔一聲拉開酒罐,豪快地大口灌着。聽着液體流過喉嚨的聲音,估計她已灌掉一半。203Please respect copyright.PENANA6poaxQNVHv
203Please respect copyright.PENANAXIOjLebvTk
她拿開嘴邊的酒罐後嘆了一口大氣,吹飛鬱悶。也多虧她,憂鬱的氣氛一吹而散。203Please respect copyright.PENANAiXHkKuEs0p
203Please respect copyright.PENANABIHppL3LLY
203Please respect copyright.PENANAUVeDELm4D5
仔細一看,她有點面熟。203Please respect copyright.PENANA7adAtue4u5
203Please respect copyright.PENANARqglua5wvK
我自小都不擅長背記文字,但人臉總自然地記進腦中。203Please respect copyright.PENANANb5Q0jEN4K
203Please respect copyright.PENANAIL4mqbGTDX
時段大概是在中學左右的……不是老師…不是熟人…至少她的衣服肯定與當時的不同,不然早認出了。203Please respect copyright.PENANAQRC8IDbrDx
203Please respect copyright.PENANApTg6QyhZUK
「啊,妳是實技試那天的那個人…。」
