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.

48 Hours a Day

Zhang Heng waited until late that night before heading to the funeral home again to set up the pinhole camera.

Later, he contacted the modified car club to borrow a van from them. Worried that the aliens might have replaced some of its members, Zhang Heng changed the van's appearance by adding a tailgate and sealing the rear compartment. He then headed to the hotel to pick Bai Qing up.

Zhang Heng still had to verify Bai Qing's identity by using the previous method. The latter looked a little tired, albeit not as sad as before. It was probably because she had caught a glimpse of the CT scan that Zhang Heng had shown her. Filled with hope once again, her fighting spirit was rekindled.
