愛莉的真名自然不是愛莉，如她所言她是個攝影師。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUb7qAMjZr
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDsVR6I0Ri
但準確來說，是前攝影師。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVNfcXWyFk
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEVaymSxGB
「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。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoJkz8n42R
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zK2ZGC4l3
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwTA2u6hP5
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2S4UkZriyM
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIoFl61GMk
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPeo2mmjlj
「好靚係唔係？」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJLFmmREiq
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7bzQibRqN
我看著相片中的鈴兒說：「嗯，好靚。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdSdNjSRtj
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGlltrHizG
「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。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZGuXpNvlG
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtm5Lo3xuSi
「吓，會計？咁咪完全唔關事……」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGz6mkafzc
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAjTYo4jsQ
「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……」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI2WOYmfN8N
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgX4u8eGI3
我輕咬下唇：「我好明白……大家生活都唔易。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBbMYxNoSe
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkLhi5H08y
「但佢真係好鐘意影相，咁嘅生活……佢根本無返去嘅理由。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduCMUBoKXP
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDnnAlVapA
「返去嘅理由…」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJ7lNdxUKe
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuiNmHfcAT
「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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF72BiJRbHM
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXrLC8djsU
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。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3dIaPW0Du
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMZaQFnXTQ
「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。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBYVAqjw62
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1J9vLWIll
我心中一沉。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA00H6mLXMb
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDkwKQtZgh
因為我意識到阡迴旅館的限制了。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLbbTBuezK
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOVWas2MfJ
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7eHAvwsnc
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3EawVCLfn
只要留在這兒，愛莉永遠沒法成為攝影師。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAqpTmBImw
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxkh6xaweH
只要留在這兒，我也永遠沒法……306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zL1h8AjGQ
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCI7AxrcT4C
「唔好意思，遲咗。」旁邊的門打開，愛莉穿過門到達大堂。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85ZCZQ30Wt
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznR4ySYhwi
「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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPhY5E2IvM
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxn0lrFIsb
「我始終想再睇多次。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSVa5I1UaH
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJpM6YIfin
「睇幾多次都可以喔。」鈴兒說，「嚟，我邊行邊講你知，阿柏。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5IB7A9zh6
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡss80crObxj
「哦…哦好！」我唯唯諾諾跟上。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENMIyauA08
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0U5KG8boP
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…？306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvOglKQVVh
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7a8DqyKDBG
甚麼跟甚麼。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCN34sJ2Tj
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHyNfSmRN1
「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。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKH4IaLKfw9
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6ibMQ2rXl
這時我突然發現鈴兒修長的玉掌結出了一個手印。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRKVOLXXda
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5yUAXXCgU
「例如——」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5apsHAt0im
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMveidNffva
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm8Ki8lq3N
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡov2k8mfT78
「叮鈴……叮鈴……」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCTldrlVgt
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jicYNVNTu
鈴兒閉上眼，如同傾聽著風鈴在天井之中激起的迴音。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlf1WbydIg
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gnyYHrcET
「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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZr3RCxOD5
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetiSLzxGcO
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNacTcXTiTc
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMZ8xdMWb5
「你睇呢道門。」鈴兒說。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAoM5tepeb
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLVcS8HR04
「Hall 2B？」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCVVVDtmIm
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiL175h5hvC
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」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkbgJvrhjL
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMU2KD6r1k
「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？」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUnqsx6t28
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9A1sy91hm
我點點頭：「嗯。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsAvoagWBV
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGPdQDVjn8
「唔係問你喇阿柏，我問緊愛莉。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cNYVop8nk
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTbWrjjGqn
愛莉失笑：「我準備好。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh25nPhD27I
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnhZJCSriY
甚麼嘛，她還是會笑的。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqa2MPWk7M
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8506ErlSc4
「嘎——」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPuvN10AMP
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfD4IIpS9F9
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！306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ibi6ykMcP
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzOoLYsMIY
「呢度……！」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjuNKAuw5T
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gngfAU6NQ
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jXE95Ikev
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOBc3eQcpS
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……306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2yP72ngx3
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflE7WrXFHv
「咦？」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj54ChpDRGE
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRyMiZNJDp
低頭一看，我身上不知何時都換上了寶藍色的西裝和皮鞋。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmhGp7oLIx
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVEsTMMpdz
「幾襯你啊，阿柏。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YVE768uI9
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82TQxt6PcA
「多謝……你地都…我地幾時換埋衫？」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrI5NjA0Pi
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRycXWM5wb
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRb88VfptFM
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzZcRbEd6C
「始終係嚟呢種場合嘛。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGVlDapie1
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaiilcGzVl
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AOVk0Pyh0
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhSsOs11ND
「呢度係……」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqq2GhEYWC
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VbU5d9zBZ
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg9qHzusit
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaXDD8JFK3
「等陣先！個年份係唔係寫錯？！」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAc2xH6Nh6v
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwbrpbWngN
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。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMX1GArgiv
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBsPgB84Dp
「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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNfTsOR3kn
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryrYtvq3Zr
「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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HDWstIeCd
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXW5uga8hkh
就在那瞬間，我看到了。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2HYee4Iqw
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKf1gpQC1VG
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！306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXnGeRfRz6
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFuuRMk7mj
這就是鈴兒口中說的「未來」！306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgh20z7Tsi
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpks7isVynV
「鈴兒，我地坐邊？」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7C2GlpYOt
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYiHTwQwKF
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？306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJd3GrdZZ5
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyU9JAz9zV
「我地行呢邊。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkm4Uge2Ay
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVEcPawQhd
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepRflIPbEx
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YMiX6MmEh
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！306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHE97MHb4V
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyHYm8cLPu
「嘎——」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObuqKJOV4o
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8nOYRcmfq
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！306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSK4BIcLqNf
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡre601h78iY
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUPLyoW1iN
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jgWOCh7Jf
這邊的年長愛莉衣服變了，身邊的丈夫也換了一個人！306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡomopQBfsan
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Fys2v9KRB
「呢度已經係另一個平行宇宙。」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg2dDI7tHI
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGG9klVj3pi
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaMc5cjQQN
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWNKiQOODy
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWJ7PEXT2m
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8XYl2U1JV
年長愛莉的衣服再次改變，身邊變成了一個較年青的男生。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoh3PZAvBe
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwVaAXAi9K
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEXCrMor1n
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIIBscSRqg
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。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdZyw37pcn
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTu5GsBD9hH
但唯有那一句不變。306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnBMjQjOFz
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMnUNXY9wB
「得獎者係，來自香港嘅愛莉女士！」306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphIKISZo4h
306Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMqcA3PaxQ
終於我們停下腳步，駐足於這個平行宇宙之中。
