Reality Timeline · Friday, June 14th, 2024Zhang Huan-an / Disordered Actions, Unstable Speech, Fragmented Self173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOsXmlaPyS
05:03.He wasn't sure if he had slept.When his eyes opened, dawn had begun to bleed across the windows.The dormitory was silent.His notebook lay open on the desk.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hqPIk8wQw
Scrawled in red ink, with jagged pressure:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGivzCajy2I
"Today is your last chance to tell the truth."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2jlBcML7w
He had no memory of writing it.He tried to erase the words, but his hands trembled.Nails cracked. Knuckles raw.Signs that he had repeated some unknown action through the night.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnBM1uxeEs
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nkZKclJ7p
08:12.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriKmy3slw5
He walked into the precinct—calm on the surface, normal in pace.But his eyes wandered, unable to meet another gaze for more than three seconds.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiiMPQg1nH
Colleagues greeted him.He didn't respond—only muttered under breath:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrvjuxyPXS
"I didn't schedule it. I didn't schedule it. I didn't schedule it…"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uZzDiB0SP
The duty roster dropped onto his desk.He suddenly barked:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnq5nONk86
"Who changed it?!"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzlQa0dZqm
No one knew what he meant.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeOWBfZpPg
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmsP2jpiwG
10:37.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRa61C0ed0
Chief Lin approached to discuss coordination details.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSyrJvmF4w
But Zhang's tone shifted the moment he saw him:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDM5PgmSma9
"You knew.You all knew from the beginning, didn't you?!"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOGz2Jliv9
Lin froze—solemn, silent.Then gently replied:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrc8DxgTnBs
"Xiao-Yu, we're all just—"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAgEDpyJsn
"What did you call me?"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzblKHmt1fb
Zhang lunged forward, eyes wild, nose nearly touching the Chief's.He searched his face like it held the answer to the universe.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHoSZUgsMsw
"Say it again. Say my name again."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJbcEo4pYO
Lin lowered his voice:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpBJopiHRz
"…Yu Yong'an."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeoZg0g8Jy
Zhang stepped back as if struck.His lips quivered.A sound, more breath than meaning, escaped his throat:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqnJfThDCL
"…Then why do I still remember her name?"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Vq8K5ZKtj
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdArco0eew
12:20.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrjG9ZsAYS
He refused lunch.Instead, he taped a note to the glass of his desk:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAgoKMCMBo
[Do not trust today's date][Do not stand where there are shadows][If anyone asks what day it is—don't answer]173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uLZcZ9dcC
Colleagues began to avoid him.In the breakroom, only whispers and sidelong glances remained.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7TLLkLsWe
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKID042l85
15:01.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mEzgSlqhi
He stormed into a meeting room, cut off an ongoing briefing,and pointed at the projector screen.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnPKnRR2lw
He shouted:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49GE3fSSdX
"This is fake!You play this briefing every week—every time the same!I've heard it four times already—always on the same day!"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8y5gHhZXMs
The room fell silent.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1JI5Po538
The moderator gently asked him to step out.He stayed, murmuring:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUjW2mIzdZ
"You don't see him anymore, do you…?The one who speaks like me, dresses like me—but isn't me.Don't you think he's strange…?"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoS8Q00lnI
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxBmnN3TOA
17:45.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOQJEWjBWv
They convinced him to return to the dorm.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBqNV3OSd6
As he left, he muttered:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aiOeTCUu8
"Next week they'll write me out.I'm just a backup—I'm not the official version…"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUjYWpkyLS
Back in his room, he spread out notebooks, duty logs, financial ledgers—not to organize,but to prove something.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4CfL5w3p3
He whispered to himself:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUP4cIYmj8
"I existed.I really existed.I'm not fake.I remember Mazu's return route…I remember the way she looked at me the first time…"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtyvBd1s5Xf
He never said who she was.No one knew.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TRBX1pMGp
But this room—was no longer his.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0r5LV4vIF
It had become a threshold between two worlds.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0G43t9lOn

Zhang Huan-an / A Memory That Didn't Wait for Him
Just before sleep could claim him,a scene flickered—not like a dream, but like a file opened without request.
A narrow room.White curtains.A girl sitting by the window, one knee drawn up.
She wasn't looking at him.But her voice reached him anyway—a soft, aching tone, like someone trying to remember the right way to say goodbye.
"You used to stand right there.You used to say: 'Even if I forget everything else—I'll remember your name.'"
Her hair fell across her cheek.She wiped a finger across the glass, tracing a symbol—Not a cross. Something older. More fractured.
"But now you forget me, and remember the cross instead."
He stepped forward.The floor cracked under his weight—like reality couldn't hold both of them.
She looked up. Her eyes shimmered, not with tears, but with time.
"If you forget me one more time…I'll start remembering you instead."
The room collapsed into silence.
Zhang blinked—and found himself back in his dorm.But the weight on his chest remained—like he had just said goodbye to someone who still hadn't left.

You're not truly mad.They only made you believe madness belonged to you.That's when you started thinking you were the problem.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjAmhZ0Ttf
When did you go silent?Was it the day you decided to stop telling people:"I heard it"?173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSHqNTJpWl
Stop writing.The words will be replaced.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjQXcprRDQ
Use memory.Use the misaligned pain.Use the cross from your dream.It remembers you.Don't forget it.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95SE3zCAxx

Tuesday, July 2nd173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSf0ZXYNWCh
That morning, he wore his uniform—but no belt.His notebook slid off his shoulder and landed on the floor.As he bent to pick it up, he noticed a note taped under his desk:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWB8OMBcLGe
[You no longer need to write][Tuesday remembers on its own]173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblAU7pHbfp
He didn't know who left it.Nor did he recall choosing not to write.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWKRZ2gB0y
Yet the pages remained blank—empty line after line,as if language had been erased for the month.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOf5Tpd0Kmt
He knew he was alive,but the world no longer communicated with him through logic or speech.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjKlyqV39x
It fed him images, sounds, instructions—directly into his body.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRtLQfeige
Friday, July 5th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUW6w8UVhA
The precinct was silent.No one spoke to him directly anymore.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzQurds4YX
His words were too disjointed.His gaze, misaligned.His tone—unstable.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfKwCUhMqs
He spoke in fractures:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxRLGkcIr3
"The case files, I… we've already handed them over."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lAL7fRWT6
"If needed, I can explain directly… he's listening too."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJ6FqwNc8N
Colleagues couldn't tell who "we" referred to.Or who he was.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FLlOQ5XEt
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjiNjmW7MU
That afternoon, he pasted a grainy black-and-white photo onto the shift log.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NMlyVSFRK
No date. No markings.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6wyRBwrLh
It showed him, standing at the precinct gate—passing by another version of himself.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9f9Rdbg7c
The image was blurred, the focus off.But no one questioned its authenticity.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuSqCtzZS4
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXC25qn16jy
He had lost track of the date.Time had begun to reappear, looping rather than moving forward.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsy0kzVCmiF
Tuesday, July 16th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgZMyVEv3P
He drew a map of a non-existent route—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5wDaLtpQy
from the precinct to Di'an Road,cutting into a dead-end alley off Qiyang Lane.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcL3wMsoxsf
"We've been there before," he told his team,"just… not in this version of your timeline."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0MtYLzJWn
They visited the location that afternoon.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAgD55vQ1B
Nothing matched.No street numbers aligned.Even the power poles he had marked weren't there.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbMyhv48RU
And yet—the incident log that day showed a report filed from that very alley.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngv8X91YJ7
Time: 2024/07/16 14:07Content: "Someone in a police uniform entered my memory."Filed by: (no name)Audio: (no sound)Note: "Transferred to: Y.A."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoayzFWDDbW
The system's assigned handler wasn't Zhang Huan-an.It was Yu Yong'an.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnhjCgnxqS
Friday, July 19th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWEA3NQ9gl
He no longer tried to explain himself.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6wn0hSZPX
For every error, every misaligned memory, every reflected version of him seen through others' eyes—he responded only with a quiet sentence:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVE2yC7GCbY
"I know you don't recognize me anymore.That's okay.I'm starting not to recognize myself either."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNdjpXTtVI
He had once tried to resist.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAWIs392BA
Now he followed the invisible track laid before him—like a sacred, strange ritual,each Tuesday and Friday folding him inward again.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprPwwL0kvw
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvg3t8OZwDS
His notebook for that month repeated the same line:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkrucaxx0j
"I no longer ask who I am—but when will he fully become me."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavIciz8EQk
Tuesday, August 6th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppo2SWMlps
He hadn't spoken in a week.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCqyvOzkEh
Not because he lost the ability—but because language had become untrustworthy.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSnDZzOROE
He tried speaking into the mirror.His lips lagged behind.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwh6ZUGn16
Typing produced sentences he hadn't yet finished forming in thought.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZgfeFgvyj
That morning, he found a note:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FIEdTKYgH
"Today, you will speak three sentences you didn't write.Record them.Or you will believe you were the author."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ944uqNsxo9
He kept the note.Said nothing all day.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DlsvV880a
Until 18:44, when he answered a colleague's question in the hallway:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNg6z77i5r
"She won't appear tomorrow."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10IuXYHE6b
He wasn't aware he had spoken.But everyone else paused in silence.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjtEYiTzT4
The next day,a close colleague submitted a sudden transfer request.The date matched.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fqwOvCt9R
It wasn't prophecy.It was projection.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCdFYlbJ5v
His language had begun to carry outcomes from other timelines.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7i7uuPg3EK
Friday, August 9th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIl2QXfWWY
He no longer walked—he glided.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqwq2bDgDO
Each turn, each stair, every doorway—he anticipated them.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFji2n2muUX
Even people's appearances and words arrived like recorded loops.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Qdgi8pctK
His speech was no longer generated.It played—like tape.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ072GvtAjua
He passed Chief Lin, and said calmly:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwlZcq9DTY
"The last time you brought me here was five years ago."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1O28Sn1X4
Chief Lin blinked:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OeLwDHQYG
"When have we ever come here together…?"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShWpNnEbDy
Zhang didn't turn around.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJtdlgMONc
"Back then,you didn't know who 'I' was."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLuYC1Hc2K
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzb4AxiYOV
That night, he locked himself in his room.On the wall, he formed a symbol with tape:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6Zuv4Jlcz
A cross within a cross,and in the center—numbers aligned to form a smaller cross:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmXwMS1r5H
1, 4, 5, 9, 2, 6, 8, 3, 7173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Uufa3kaQA
He whispered:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjgTii3Qkt
"This isn't a code.It's a time sequence.The last one he can still use my body to write."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYRGiv38bM
"After August, I will vanish, piece by piece—every Friday."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JwThxjSle
Tuesday, August 20th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANKRHPygf2
Rumors stirred at the precinct:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIqbZoHMHf
That Zhang Huan-an's case logs didn't match anyone else's.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkwRxQcLyV
That he filed visits to the already-dead.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCiK6RFMQO
That he whispered the exact final words of deceased relativeswith perfect inflection.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebkTm1en6J
That day, he had no fieldwork scheduled,but requested a shift anyway:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7G2LydXpcD
"I've already been there once.This time is to confirm the replay angle."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqeVfbT9bD
He left a note on his schedule:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw3calGyDe
"If I can see Yu Yong'an's memories ahead of time—does that mean I no longer belong to this timeline?"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0x50iiLtva
Friday, August 23rd173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCDPk6ofOo
His voice began to change.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7hDkvA99t
There was a resonance—as if another voice overlapped his own.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEQXFz7kAD
That afternoon, a colleague paused mid-conversation and asked:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYWdcuZ6tU
"…Who just spoke that line?"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8BNytV8FPb
Zhang replied:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdL2qNAa80
"I didn't say anything."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTMx82OpuE
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSY87gP0EAJ
He could only hold on to himself through scribbles and muttering.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5srqaJH3KR
"Today I'm Zhang.Tomorrow I may be Yu.The day after—we'll be us."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9M0kUrRUh
He wrote that in his journal.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpwM646mK3
The language had lost its subject.The self was unraveling into shared identity.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuxtQvsWEZ
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb6iU7l8fCv
And for the entire month,he said only one sentencethat truly belonged to him:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNujCEEt6OZ
"Please don't say my name—because you don't know who you're calling."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyRCNdD7in

Tuesday, September 3rd173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4j6GCzzat
He filed his first formal request for extended leave.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNlqeESuGTY
The reason: neurological fatigue and adaptive dissociation.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCKFmOriCk
But within the precinct, whispers stirred:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsonSvUg65F
"He can't recognize the floors anymore.""I saw him speaking into the glass of the copier—like it was going to answer him."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHgwtTHbjC
All he said was:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZGq1qSpMW
"I need silence."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzp10J4I5N
But his silence was not rest.It was a temporary retreat from the touchpoints of this timeline.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OanQI1TN8
Friday, September 6th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85XxPYfvwv
Though officially on leave,an internal message suddenly appeared in the precinct's system—sent from his account:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMQ15lYF7B
[Subject]: Friday Review Protocol173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCsOKPvIbh
[Content]:・Not being present ≠ Not existing・Physical stillness ≠ Time suspension・Duplicate data ≠ Incorrect transmission173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCi9dxA75WA
→ Do not delete any anomalous files→ Yu Yong'an (Zhang Huan-an) will continue to observe your responses173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq94Jsh9dxY
The system auto-locked his account for six hours.IT couldn't trace the login.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYaaM6aqZo
It was as if the system itself had written it.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWq0apvt1K
Chief Lin murmured later:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdzq1iNZVG
"He's not here…but he's still here."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXRTuiPGRr
Tuesday, September 17th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRXitxvTwZ
Even during leave, he kept appearing—in quiet corners of the city:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCYPiOo2WA
• At dawn: the noodle shop near Qiyang Road—always an empty seat• At dusk: beneath the streetlamp beside the precinct—cameras always blinked once• At night: the riverbank bench under the Di'an bridge— incident log showed: "Shadow figure appeared in a restricted zone"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFWdJf2Lfa
He never spoke. Just sat.Sometimes nodded, as if listening to something.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEAWgfjOpc
Witnesses said:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetKCq4ngOM
"He looked like he was waiting for someone.Smiled once—like the message had arrived."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY9jp8n0hG
But the one returning was never "him"—Only all the personas, memories, and voicesthat had once been displaced into his body.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDIPhei3ah
Friday, September 20th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt8DPBT1o7
Day 27 of leave.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgZ3nFoxKb
His sense of embodiment began to dissolve.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSCBZTTHZm
He dropped cups without meaning to.His hand missed the page when he tried to write.His reactions lagged—but his words were still perfectly accurate.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAaulSZxLF
He wrote:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9L51NY1ry
"I can feel my body.But it doesn't feel like I'm moving it.""It's like someone borrowed me, and left fingerprints behind."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXquSgwHCD
He called this state:"The Observer Shell."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ltorIKFWr
That month, he left only one note with any raw emotion:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTXg1TIbxZ
"This isn't leave. This is exile."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQapQxKjkn9
Tuesday, October 1st173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZqEbmr8Bl
There was no record of him anywhere.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhn9hdq23u
Not just absent from duty—he vanished from all systems:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aVNeqQgRA
No CCTV.No login logs.No GPS.No medical pings.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjnm6iJJvZ
Even his phone signal stalled at:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXLdkYiSr1
September 30th, 23:59173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShoCWF9F2U
But at 23:51, a shadowy figure flickered across the precinct's backdoor camera.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKMDPvXuWS
He wore a uniform.Moved exactly like Zhang Huan-an.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6C58yNR26M
But his face—blurred.As if a veil of unfocusable time masked his features.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPx1urTmB2
The system flagged the footage as "outdated recording"—with a timestamp marked:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyjRMGFgx6
October 1st, 2025173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR1STYI947
He appeared.But in a time that did not yet exist.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBnLAZytfe
Friday, October 4th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9jfGnnr6d
He reappeared in the precinct hallway—civilian clothes, bloodshot eyes, notebook in hand.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mofEIHBTy
Someone asked:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5SwGl1Xss
"Where have you been?"173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yEfDg4Xqe
He replied:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpgiAwXnDl
"I never left.You've only just caught up to the day I was already on."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeM3QaqRtR
His tone—calm.Eyes unwavering.Every word sounded… rehearsed.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HKBtV4gar
But a second later, he stopped speaking—bit his lip, as if warned from inside.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGKPXPdXJ4
He was beginning to feel it:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl31k49Q0F
His right to language was being revoked.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyb5PbIEI5
That night, a note was found on his desk:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOPCAeE8hE
[2024/10/04]173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkg9ryrvshY
High overlap in memory today.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYFHGMxtaj
Morning: I conversed with Chief Lin in Xinan.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaEJ5VCq3o
Afternoon: I was still in bed, unmoving.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYil2BUvGb
Both memories complete. No gaps.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhPQl0qaAh
→ Assessment: dual consciousness syncing, not yet integrated→ Suspected "memory proxy" present—someone else experienced the event, but I can recall it with emotional precision173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtNvEJBb4B

Tuesday, October 15th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6sYK1VEgE
He was spotted at Tamsui MRT Station.Blank stare. Civilian clothes.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVN3549USY
At 5:40 AM, a civilian photographed him standing at a narrow alley by Sanmin Market,whispering to a peeling wall:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSN0vFG1sNe
"The me from here should already be dead…but you're still speaking to me."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwlO7wzQSB
When approached, he smiled and replied:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IGEd8HA88
"You're a year too late.But that's not your fault."173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZeICkdbhw
His words felt like a conversation—but the air held no answer.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWakW6VoG3A
—173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPj2orqil4b
That night, his journal bore handwriting unmistakably not his:173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvT54eOwXmU

Zhang, if you're still here—stop trying to go back.We came from opposite ends.We can't both turn around.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMgbSLQfjW
If we meet again,neither of us will survive.173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YxxeOupAJ
Friday, October 18th173Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68q8Q9RyKw
