Growing up with eccentric materialistic parents who left him in the care of his grandfather for a job overseas, Zhang Heng had learned to adapt and be unfettered by the oddities and challenges in life. But he would soon learn the baffling truth about the world he thought he knew when one day at midnight time froze and he found himself in a world so quiet and still it was deafening. That night, he discovered that he had 24 hours more than everybody else and thus, marked the beginning of his adventures. The mysteries surrounding his newfound ability only deepened when a strange old man claimed to have given Zhang Heng that ‘gift of time’ and recruited the young man to participate in a cryptic ‘life-changing’ game on his behalf. Little did Zhang Heng know that accepting those terms meant embroiling himself in many versions of reality and exposing himself to the hidden secrets of the world—a decision he could never undo.

The corpse was with the authorities now.

An autopsy would usually be carried out on those who went through an unnatural death to gain a deeper insight into the fatal wounds.

For this case, the cause of death was undeniable. Hence, the forensic doctors did not need to perform an autopsy on Bai Qing's mother. Even after the examination was completed, family members were not allowed to retrieve the corpse immediately. It would be placed at the funeral home temporarily.

Since Bai Qing's mother's death fell under criminal investigation, even her family members could not see her anytime they wanted. And Zhang Heng did not want other people to be around when he examined the corpse. So Bai Qing and Zhang Heng waited until the funeral home closed in the evening before they headed over there.

Zhang Heng then said to Bai Qing, "Wait for me outside the funeral home."
