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

That night, at the weapons factory.

The workers on the assembly line had gotten off work and had gone home. However, Feng Zi and several engineers were still at the workshop, studying more about machine optimization. A few of them were arguing about replacing a certain part of the machine. Feng Zi was slapping her hands on the table, and the others' faces were burning red. However, their argument seemed only limited to technical issues. In fact, after spending an entire afternoon with them and coupled with Feng Zi's carefree character, she had gotten along well with everyone in the factory.

And now, everyone considered her as one of them. Besides, Feng Zi was very knowledgeable when it came to the machinery, and the suggestions she provided had been very valuable so far. However, they still needed to do some tests on her ideas to see if they would work well.
