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

On the vast ice field, the pack of dogs was running on all fours.

The hot air from their mouths formed a white smoke in the air, which was then blown away by the cold wind.

Olai saw Alessia make a hand gesture to him, telling him that he would reach the end of the journey in 40 minutes.

However, at that moment, Zhang Heng, who had been very quiet, suddenly reached out and patted him on the back. He even shouted in English, "Stop!"

Olai didn't stop immediately. He turned around to see what Zhang Heng was trying to do, but when he looked behind him, he realized that Zhang Heng had already disappeared.

Olai was shocked. He didn't expect Zhang Heng to be left on the road by him, or... more accurately, the other party had jumped off the sleigh on his own accord.
