Xiao Daidzhao

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

As Zhang Heng retreated, the masked man also fell down the stairs, almost implicating his companion. However, his reaction was still in time. He grabbed the stairs and stabilized his body.

Zhang Heng was slightly surprised. When the two of them exchanged blows earlier, it seemed like he had the upper hand. However, this was because he stood in a better position. When the other party rushed up from below, his body was in the air when he exerted force, that was why he was knocked down by Zhang Heng.

Zhang Heng could also feel the powerful force coming from the other side of his palm. The two steps that he took back looked simple, but in reality, he had taken the opportunity to remove the force from the Masked Man's fist. If it was anyone else here.., they would probably be sitting on the ground.
