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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmWBM76KJw
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRXyisRaXL
「啲人呢……」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeKsiRkplw
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSv5rcscPe
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLdNckYO4r
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYotS0ZuOC
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！！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwv2hYdTpbN
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qlrrWQCqj
「……係……度……啊……」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXBQjVxqWW
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wayq1yXI2
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！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdnao2bpsG
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1QgEG9CZ7
沒有，沒有，沒有！！門後沒有阡迴旅館！我被困在平行宇宙了？！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHC6okHdv4d
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy20K02ckvP
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！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQOquMfk5m
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRaHdBOv1mO
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！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwX6ItcHKjW
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTr8I1P0OvE
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？174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3eKZRY4lW
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNqhcptHHD
「喵～」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxKAPvvcZV
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6mFUvvvFu
「渺…渺渺？！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokBySRw72s
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqS2z8pf17H
頹然坐在地上抱頭的我，卻突然聽到貓叫聲。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZoLByOuM8
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMA5LQn4AgE
「叮鈴…」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3Q4pCH302
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniX9tibt3W
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？！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWrS80oIbg
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuULYgd7vmu
「渺渺？！你係邊啊！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46EEg29VjI
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6lVAJa4M2
我站起來東張西望，卻始終沒法鎖定渺渺的方向。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEDSn11ZEQ
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbu6bKaAHx
走廊盡頭有人！！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvf2Ol3esXM
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVIO4FS8Nq
「……小姐！等陣！！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsIuE57A1e
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSjCb1NKwT
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！！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3gankLdAw
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSsqq6IqHB
「等陣！！求下你，停一停！！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKSdOA8hG5
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0uSwj1Mbs
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！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMALhwwyJz
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3btW43IiD
不能……我不能停下腳步！這樣會被身後的虛空追上……174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjLOmUBEhI
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhE98XE49vT
等等，那人是！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpSYfRgOuY
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vLDNi8CGM
「鈴兒！！我係度啊！！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80zbBNStjC
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77oP5mL4JE
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！！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa6pBL12qA
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8iuN0x6NE
「等埋我…求下你…唔好連你都扔低我……夏！鈴！兒！！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeEQ5uf7ga
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUIOIqOs7i
「砰！！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTdR4Tegs0
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzTY029Urj
「哎呀！嗚…」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOaKYEDNDC
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtDL3HF66P
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！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IxzrTVwcR
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡke6DTrAeB0
「……我識得你？」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhsi1MME4J
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9gn8OJWxF
咦？174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18J9UoouPP
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RsVXB59fH
等……等，哪兒來的門？我在哪兒？174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnEpwXGnov
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1pXuMH9kt
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFXsd1H6Xr
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbaRU4ChwR
一看便知這是醫院。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqpEQXN6GK
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0oIwmJ1m4
「鈴…鈴兒…我頭先…嗄…你聽我講，真係嚇死我…」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8gaO1TEjj
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakbjKXzfhS
「先生，我地唔識對方，就請唔好直接叫我個名。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeULu8rXZI
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qhbwt3mEK
眼前的鈴兒，極之冰冷。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcRI3SGUFG
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9XniEJOop
「但係……」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotF9o3zhht
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cUVmebiri
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIPPzBN6Iv
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwivzPTMqe
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgtWdrLF8q
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSOYTdJ8TD
「我返去做野先。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzVYWQWr2C
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2CKVMVAvF
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoMEZcCnVy
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbj97rcp0kW
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？174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47MiDnwHyN
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAEUUGFUdM
但馬上我就看出端倪了。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4alxUno7aq
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnEvPK3XxJ
無論是那邊那個醫生手上拿著的摺式手機。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwAc5MeMRz
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRHx6OFmnS
還是在角落中放著的顯像管「大牛龜」顯像管電視。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInraNxrVOh
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7XpAIsFAf
這兒不是未來，不是現在，不是平行宇宙，更加不是阡迴旅館。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYTwE0d9cP
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAHlfDB1pa
這是過去，鈴兒成為阡迴旅館職員前的過去。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqY1oUu4nC
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kx9wCsdn7
［13座 西翼4/F］174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYELxNaH2Hu
［安寧病房］
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNigglzSq5
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLAFoB4kvz
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMUoqO41GU
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ384AuAKeOc
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHKM7787dnP
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsQTQsR97F
我知道甚麼是安寧病房。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFggCgZNMui
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXiVg79SXB
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9zHdbXPdM
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rWPz9Ykha
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qZfDHwTRw
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEepKSlWXV1
「……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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4RYm1iQEC
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0A4A86H7H6
「明白。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ5zOSjMp1
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zZva5lEL5
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJojcmlJwg
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43fx83XJC9
好冰冷，她的表情。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMyLAT2tI5
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yYxGbTRvo
好陌生，她的身影。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWROmhRGI12
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MUDJHaTcF
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。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlMnj2JcdV
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx17wL0h2Hn
「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。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81TtrhN6J6
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2g7QfG85HD
「等陣，聽日入住嘅新病人，點解……無資料？」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0L1EDNVlA
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BK7nQN7mT
「除左夏姑娘之外，大家都出返去做野先。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYzhDiz3UO
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJwSaCpnlr
「係。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzz4NQwlyey
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYNxTkFBdM
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoK0tEhwFuz
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlm1Tr8uz2f
「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。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxdb763N5t
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoLAMkJPq0
「好。」鈴兒簡短地點頭。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qUWNGO1hr
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrco62dnvj
「你就唔問下點解要搞到咁神秘？」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX94PUB2I9L
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD4aNpS4ni
「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。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJq4LtO2UzB
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4dSAiOffN
「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。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrQ0ULxSUc
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBX49IOT21
「咁原因係咩？」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzUMb8ghLm
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWk16FanaX
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……」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jd3jUsDNN
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGQeuWQDSN
「喵！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItTM3BmGza
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpGj308zyK
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？！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZsql9Fqhs
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwMyFOVTn9
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！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9LAodYYwj
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIRbjaX6T4
「渺渺，等埋我！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUhp1dZ1u3
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Y7xWrlkGH
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！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjXhp1p4gMY
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGP4gop3SH
「渺渺！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5LuDWnttt
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEXD49FT7V
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！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SiaKGUMA5
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFepvrRjE0
「渺渺！嘁……真係，肥成咁點解可以跑得咁快！？」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbj78Np1pg
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhZjSQ6fAW
「喵哈？！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQCbCDNzvx
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡickVMgzqRr
在走廊盡頭的牠聽到似乎有點生氣，但還是在那兒等著我。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZhQwFk9gf
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJna119fuoA
急步追上的我才一拐過那個角落——174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsDmvRKxzV
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVIMlnY1DC
「叮……叮……」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePUsm1tzcE
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiG2NFt3gj
風鈴聲，在幽閉的走廊中迴盪。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbb22I7nrNC
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPa0AgT9vF
「…嗄…呼…」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2bUiiexMB
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPFw0fxvOL
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXZu4v9RFi
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOeCft0qQf
風鈴聲，來自阡迴旅館。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyk3ok13Fs1
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVL0EcBWN5
「叮……叮……」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6QbapSgdZ
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42xaTap9Bv
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDgP2QIW4V
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gWRDMgn0C
找到了！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphp6m9ugZc
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVCdyWi9JC
「喵！」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWx9F4XbM7I
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡet0jlyyu5q
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！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqFA33ZjV0
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHh3VRv9q0
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONbtuCRu9Z
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocuIscYl3n
回來……回來了！174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKOUCR4vqL
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicpVDwwiDz
「呼…呼…」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknbdeZsZQn
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJX1VmJJiO
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9gUfujpo1
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5xT4cQS8P
「返嚟啦，溫年柏。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPpzk3JMD7
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKH0YMtqlh
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。174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaYBxIYPM4
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuduHOGTP5
「你係……」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGDuO3HqnT
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJsctAjFAF
「熟人。」174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZinkDWCQso
174Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgEEUALCre
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。
