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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAY8N90oL3

「啲人呢……」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjt3KwvJTx
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz6lQa5kjH
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHn3uziKNAe

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！！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvogTWhArEO

「……係……度……啊……」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNL17yozZ5
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUPChgIat6
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！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb35ZANogWv
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglJpdjrB3v
沒有，沒有，沒有！！門後沒有阡迴旅館！我被困在平行宇宙了？！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYP8eL52FCH
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsL4CtDuHT
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！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8PYdZBQfj
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorW0AZvlIE
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！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3c648FWgF2
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2SQRDv0Fm
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？209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaH2sR5Nqyv

頹然坐在地上抱頭的我，卻突然聽到貓叫聲。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvwwwodj7c

「叮鈴…」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfySkk9Evnx
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwloJG8o6oW
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？！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2by7YK6AU7
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EoqnhjDr1
「渺渺？！你係邊啊！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKOVRzmYyl
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCKZkNuO7G
我站起來東張西望，卻始終沒法鎖定渺渺的方向。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7Ky7Sj9rB
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wJkZktplf
走廊盡頭有人！！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxLPAy6TJ4
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57WdVAqn51
「……小姐！等陣！！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQq9hO2Mne
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIJrwNefDl
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！！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnjLUjdbol
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGGc56D7qD
「等陣！！求下你，停一停！！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiGq3oplI8
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0F8WqRVJWw
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！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJICW6Wjf3l
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdTRFUOSqT
不能……我不能停下腳步！這樣會被身後的虛空追上……209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilAsghWOXy

「鈴兒！！我係度啊！！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L9t2mR8jD
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYou5fF06a
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！！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAae1KPWm4

209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F9xVmGICG
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！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NDpQNzyhj
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrGKKXUy3w
「……我識得你？」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhU9i2z0yWV
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8craSqB6hS
咦？209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3RKlcvnAW

等……等，哪兒來的門？我在哪兒？209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbEGFjiYe8
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm04okCz5y4
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlFc09n8d5
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74OqcB5l21
一看便知這是醫院。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ082FeFQkEs

「鈴…鈴兒…我頭先…嗄…你聽我講，真係嚇死我…」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIz3H6Q9zw7
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0HTAkNLUZ
「先生，我地唔識對方，就請唔好直接叫我個名。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6EMjIwbcO
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6X9lW4LLR
眼前的鈴兒，極之冰冷。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPZrNxCorM
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrWwVeqMyM
「但係……」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ550bHeGrTl
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddTfk7EaBj
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjor3ytyM7
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwMd9QuMDU
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyex7Cw7izS
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6zz7ya0CC
「我返去做野先。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldXGAWoqWV
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J8Q5iWZlV
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKczNOqtvH1
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHVDZd9OiS
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？209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKd7k9r0dPH
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5ZGC9o8No
但馬上我就看出端倪了。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawpuri1I7b
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD5DZ3dT7u
無論是那邊那個醫生手上拿著的摺式手機。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6V8HQJ7Sbg
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeS1QOhUfH
還是在角落中放著的顯像管「大牛龜」顯像管電視。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs72KM73epY
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO25skBgR89
這兒不是未來，不是現在，不是平行宇宙，更加不是阡迴旅館。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrToftOcqD
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnB8IIF5teH
這是過去，鈴兒成為阡迴旅館職員前的過去。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LdZuj36gw

［13座 西翼4/F］209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vIDl6cF2m
［安寧病房］
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQnEsfht1W
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhZv3FGsVj
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvKgt6uoYl
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHleHTlcmG
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlpHb8Jbtz
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIy9S7fg71T
我知道甚麼是安寧病房。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOuJWvgiAI
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiw0A3u7Vzn
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2P5uiPJRP
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8vWIcmLNr
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoM1fzk7Cu
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCK1EnWv87u
「……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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LsMwd7sIz
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPHOuB5GDT
「明白。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxpEqv1QDT
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSyyTfX8Ko
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfh1hijrnjk
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZX14LoxV9l
好冰冷，她的表情。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sNDN9aFQD
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FPj21hg6z
好陌生，她的身影。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnXqctxBhL
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEb5JkiiDi
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。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqdFmiuErz
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQRt2JN9j0
「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。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQnimAgueg
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzPeLDwNMV
「等陣，聽日入住嘅新病人，點解……無資料？」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSreE3I4xzv
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDK7bo2QOo
「除左夏姑娘之外，大家都出返去做野先。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKOiBq7egz
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqwcrj8wst
「係。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SQK2EFKSQ
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq4cWzOxyl
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ydtFyIi3t
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxQOZdFpPR
「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。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DK0LUiSTi
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5Rsx335t5
「好。」鈴兒簡短地點頭。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSRvNBF8lL
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KfmqMmDmQ
「你就唔問下點解要搞到咁神秘？」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcmak0eRVH
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRocvc8612o
「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。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUa0YlcJGg
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbT2hNbePl4
「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。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJsjUqhyDp
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdXDtipDck
「咁原因係咩？」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaxqcxd18f
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigTcXhpsKA
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……」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4MVv5Tf3m
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnA1f2rrv1
「喵！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ctvBBKBlt
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLQtqAW3GNy
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？！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9cz25d2CQ
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzVfpC9lul
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！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIUAuPL08l
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsAtX1P6Bl
「渺渺，等埋我！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNogQcFv6i
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGraJnrcGQ
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！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcILIPYlFL
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmZrPVf8Z4
「渺渺！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbyLgByPAV
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRf9fz6f2z
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！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRK6hlCvsUl
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70Imm05Kl8
「渺渺！嘁……真係，肥成咁點解可以跑得咁快！？」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MVi2TMX1O
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OZnpeSn5i
「喵哈？！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQlUAdqanS
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqVIBO6RTf
在走廊盡頭的牠聽到似乎有點生氣，但還是在那兒等著我。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYopnoCUUkB
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaS31FkFNOt
急步追上的我才一拐過那個角落——209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9frL7fRff
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnO4c4reaU
「叮……叮……」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kwiEKQgFs
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxlXbHw3gg
風鈴聲，在幽閉的走廊中迴盪。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2tYOJoNcX
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUg9RmkK6MF
「…嗄…呼…」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWkFak4UnZ
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKnUTULs3X
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTb2fLKAdG
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PrM1FcRY5
風鈴聲，來自阡迴旅館。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUBpi3O2uu
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVw1WIET9q
「叮……叮……」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOofSGRNGXA
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRxY7eNhhg
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2liY67mN0
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOT7yskqz7T
找到了！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JlnWRoaYS
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9VHOO6igI
「喵！」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyM96sR1iVw
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64MXcf0RoC
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！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRrytfUAh3
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLhmD8U80E
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnj3EOYlwC
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnBpzDNUiN
回來……回來了！209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1Js1g93Lq

「呼…呼…」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowWH0eHRlU
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWE7XB9dXK0
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVJ7VuBBeJ

「返嚟啦，溫年柏。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmt1DCGfD4k
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bFboTI3nm
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。209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4MlbCllny
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcE47LSukkH
「你係……」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFW4BEzcw9
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcGPvG3IbS
「熟人。」209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXHZ3WNh6N
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBc2aXTFd0Q
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。
