Reality Timeline · Friday, June 14th, 2024Zhang Huan-an / Disordered Actions, Unstable Speech, Fragmented Self93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmd1j82CiN
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.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVNxHGSOqb
Scrawled in red ink, with jagged pressure:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsqxC9TKHS
"Today is your last chance to tell the truth."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQASiAkHYYz
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.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCK7Ftid5sO
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVhZyHtAcq
08:12.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MQvPfkVNs
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.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdyGwE5qrB
Colleagues greeted him.He didn't respond—only muttered under breath:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZFypZ3GCZ
"I didn't schedule it. I didn't schedule it. I didn't schedule it…"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVXgTmhfHM
The duty roster dropped onto his desk.He suddenly barked:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPuNBRApir
"Who changed it?!"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJWhLk5XQi
No one knew what he meant.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEjvwlRGRC
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOZ5ErqK0T
10:37.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTYnRLnJZ0
Chief Lin approached to discuss coordination details.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RIkhPS7a3
But Zhang's tone shifted the moment he saw him:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTwYkunpbU
"You knew.You all knew from the beginning, didn't you?!"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniUMA2emAS
Lin froze—solemn, silent.Then gently replied:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvT4UQIPZ2Q
"Xiao-Yu, we're all just—"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJ5AwW4ipv
"What did you call me?"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFpzsVYc1q
Zhang lunged forward, eyes wild, nose nearly touching the Chief's.He searched his face like it held the answer to the universe.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZWXLrDutK
"Say it again. Say my name again."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ouxg80fag
Lin lowered his voice:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPaFe5LUEB
"…Yu Yong'an."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlj9biSfR7X
Zhang stepped back as if struck.His lips quivered.A sound, more breath than meaning, escaped his throat:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SZyALcDEE
"…Then why do I still remember her name?"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhDu1smxUr
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktNzi3civs
12:20.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSINYCnLLTE
He refused lunch.Instead, he taped a note to the glass of his desk:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrRERCZPig
[Do not trust today's date][Do not stand where there are shadows][If anyone asks what day it is—don't answer]93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrS0EYjaxn
Colleagues began to avoid him.In the breakroom, only whispers and sidelong glances remained.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgenj4FMg1
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RBcRijQPg
15:01.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUCvl7ua1M
He stormed into a meeting room, cut off an ongoing briefing,and pointed at the projector screen.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPcDhqpXCN
He shouted:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVoM9dFkMgi
"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!"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4uRbmcxXDP
The room fell silent.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQ0sun8Sxf
The moderator gently asked him to step out.He stayed, murmuring:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZf9yAPmozB
"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…?"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8IAeUR6uq
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPehfQlrmQT
17:45.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKdfSib2k2
They convinced him to return to the dorm.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFf8kWvRRzm
As he left, he muttered:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCE7KZLMKxo
"Next week they'll write me out.I'm just a backup—I'm not the official version…"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYE6OXyqfm
Back in his room, he spread out notebooks, duty logs, financial ledgers—not to organize,but to prove something.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLKpQ2Xj8f
He whispered to himself:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK38Rt7YzMq
"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…"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtMfhnPd14
He never said who she was.No one knew.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ5yGqAk68
But this room—was no longer his.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eZbyaTilg
It had become a threshold between two worlds.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhxJhdZNxJ

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.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS45Tq0ihE
When did you go silent?Was it the day you decided to stop telling people:"I heard it"?93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJnIJXZacC
Stop writing.The words will be replaced.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sRUn74OsR
Use memory.Use the misaligned pain.Use the cross from your dream.It remembers you.Don't forget it.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rUgTMoAFp

Tuesday, July 2nd93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWpXoDqWFq
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:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV598C5pIk8
[You no longer need to write][Tuesday remembers on its own]93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoN3zXxfBzt
He didn't know who left it.Nor did he recall choosing not to write.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeL9VoswUjF
Yet the pages remained blank—empty line after line,as if language had been erased for the month.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUO5U101FLm
He knew he was alive,but the world no longer communicated with him through logic or speech.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszkcktCN6c
It fed him images, sounds, instructions—directly into his body.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPN6Is6oDq
Friday, July 5th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHBUrsLXE0
The precinct was silent.No one spoke to him directly anymore.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lDLvOLV0s
His words were too disjointed.His gaze, misaligned.His tone—unstable.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHgeGHeTm7
He spoke in fractures:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyUDY5VAa3
"The case files, I… we've already handed them over."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eHSA7ezwA
"If needed, I can explain directly… he's listening too."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPpwio218l
Colleagues couldn't tell who "we" referred to.Or who he was.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YRcwnbwLl
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJYn4T9GaT
That afternoon, he pasted a grainy black-and-white photo onto the shift log.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLnhB0k6VB
No date. No markings.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9r15eDEPw
It showed him, standing at the precinct gate—passing by another version of himself.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJ9GXb7fRq
The image was blurred, the focus off.But no one questioned its authenticity.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtWd8QEDqs
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIgq68Uttx
He had lost track of the date.Time had begun to reappear, looping rather than moving forward.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQB860QdlP6
Tuesday, July 16th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxL9jiHb9cm
He drew a map of a non-existent route—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnA8p6qv1qp
from the precinct to Di'an Road,cutting into a dead-end alley off Qiyang Lane.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyVvyNAAFH
"We've been there before," he told his team,"just… not in this version of your timeline."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEokhOhWYb2
They visited the location that afternoon.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHeYHyOaP2
Nothing matched.No street numbers aligned.Even the power poles he had marked weren't there.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGMSYk9Lhe
And yet—the incident log that day showed a report filed from that very alley.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08QpdVVhGq
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."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqJsofWUZz
The system's assigned handler wasn't Zhang Huan-an.It was Yu Yong'an.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWTuzlEapF
Friday, July 19th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP9XNVAhty
He no longer tried to explain himself.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEE8motOpz6
For every error, every misaligned memory, every reflected version of him seen through others' eyes—he responded only with a quiet sentence:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VJWGIhs6K
"I know you don't recognize me anymore.That's okay.I'm starting not to recognize myself either."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcAbQbgZuN
He had once tried to resist.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrn7L2tHYh
Now he followed the invisible track laid before him—like a sacred, strange ritual,each Tuesday and Friday folding him inward again.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZO8skDOCvy
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ezPI7elyr
His notebook for that month repeated the same line:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOVz8qIgBE
"I no longer ask who I am—but when will he fully become me."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYbtWg7nbi
Tuesday, August 6th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT376l8E3Pp
He hadn't spoken in a week.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH70unu9Sww
Not because he lost the ability—but because language had become untrustworthy.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNjjZA0KWp
He tried speaking into the mirror.His lips lagged behind.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBQBX2D7yB
Typing produced sentences he hadn't yet finished forming in thought.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDV8ERAvcn
That morning, he found a note:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2C7BTLXOJ
"Today, you will speak three sentences you didn't write.Record them.Or you will believe you were the author."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonfFGYPx46
He kept the note.Said nothing all day.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtztHOESGE8
Until 18:44, when he answered a colleague's question in the hallway:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAqaI9gjd9
"She won't appear tomorrow."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4FRMc9rVN1
He wasn't aware he had spoken.But everyone else paused in silence.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6EtFYnMJy
The next day,a close colleague submitted a sudden transfer request.The date matched.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWT0M7wpo6
It wasn't prophecy.It was projection.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2smy0wejg2
His language had begun to carry outcomes from other timelines.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEh4FXnOqa
Friday, August 9th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5lGZyLbiO
He no longer walked—he glided.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpA3lcr238C
Each turn, each stair, every doorway—he anticipated them.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvbkAYMQAc
Even people's appearances and words arrived like recorded loops.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHA6PLB511
His speech was no longer generated.It played—like tape.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45c9ijrqZL
He passed Chief Lin, and said calmly:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlqi1qgRUW
"The last time you brought me here was five years ago."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgODgJNaQHl
Chief Lin blinked:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpC5qFZSZAU
"When have we ever come here together…?"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsISADPhqO
Zhang didn't turn around.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MO2bLmyRw
"Back then,you didn't know who 'I' was."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCSFiGlIeu
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9epgWFnTeN
That night, he locked himself in his room.On the wall, he formed a symbol with tape:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9VpPXNzVQ
A cross within a cross,and in the center—numbers aligned to form a smaller cross:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWZdHLKbYV
1, 4, 5, 9, 2, 6, 8, 3, 793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDaj3936wd
He whispered:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGufOIiHOh
"This isn't a code.It's a time sequence.The last one he can still use my body to write."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr78B2v118m
"After August, I will vanish, piece by piece—every Friday."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbxjjh50mf
Tuesday, August 20th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnMkFXtA2s
Rumors stirred at the precinct:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7joaMLBQg
That Zhang Huan-an's case logs didn't match anyone else's.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVjtzO8Prz
That he filed visits to the already-dead.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLiCEqSkWY
That he whispered the exact final words of deceased relativeswith perfect inflection.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeygf5YgsOh
That day, he had no fieldwork scheduled,but requested a shift anyway:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbQXg3khwW
"I've already been there once.This time is to confirm the replay angle."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbAh0L2ENG
He left a note on his schedule:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAg2OUktEs
"If I can see Yu Yong'an's memories ahead of time—does that mean I no longer belong to this timeline?"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4C8Iyurhni
Friday, August 23rd93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEalUnhTIr
His voice began to change.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLntVV2PiIO
There was a resonance—as if another voice overlapped his own.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq9j7q5dNB
That afternoon, a colleague paused mid-conversation and asked:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nwJlj1L81
"…Who just spoke that line?"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSX4hPSte3O
Zhang replied:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAN5wBNvGbN
"I didn't say anything."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDBiNco3Vt
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUwZstnYV7
He could only hold on to himself through scribbles and muttering.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfQAF951jN
"Today I'm Zhang.Tomorrow I may be Yu.The day after—we'll be us."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiG5awYdfTf
He wrote that in his journal.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuowq44P9Tc
The language had lost its subject.The self was unraveling into shared identity.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IqmVrG6Mz
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N35MFzafC
And for the entire month,he said only one sentencethat truly belonged to him:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqeFccScRL
"Please don't say my name—because you don't know who you're calling."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKXafkrcgg

Tuesday, September 3rd93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxLJbBOhq6
He filed his first formal request for extended leave.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvCP1FxUvw
The reason: neurological fatigue and adaptive dissociation.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpz4z1CBPoD
But within the precinct, whispers stirred:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdKRuF1OXn
"He can't recognize the floors anymore.""I saw him speaking into the glass of the copier—like it was going to answer him."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQajanjv7v
All he said was:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa9NzTQ3NH
"I need silence."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV0C1tc33B
But his silence was not rest.It was a temporary retreat from the touchpoints of this timeline.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9S5cs8FvD
Friday, September 6th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUyDi54E2T
Though officially on leave,an internal message suddenly appeared in the precinct's system—sent from his account:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXcine5IPQ
[Subject]: Friday Review Protocol93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvY612F6MB
[Content]:・Not being present ≠ Not existing・Physical stillness ≠ Time suspension・Duplicate data ≠ Incorrect transmission93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡro95ybw6DB
→ Do not delete any anomalous files→ Yu Yong'an (Zhang Huan-an) will continue to observe your responses93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xJH9B2vJK
The system auto-locked his account for six hours.IT couldn't trace the login.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9ZjOfMbpf
It was as if the system itself had written it.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteiUOPnraw
Chief Lin murmured later:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71BoMSGKBN
"He's not here…but he's still here."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZwBJ1k2Bu
Tuesday, September 17th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTUPU4ZOZD
Even during leave, he kept appearing—in quiet corners of the city:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGxDNyquOg
• 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"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOF3RAs2iOo
He never spoke. Just sat.Sometimes nodded, as if listening to something.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAc8ybfvwMG
Witnesses said:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8t7YH3RDq
"He looked like he was waiting for someone.Smiled once—like the message had arrived."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3vwHkywkx
But the one returning was never "him"—Only all the personas, memories, and voicesthat had once been displaced into his body.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqU9G4NUgAn
Friday, September 20th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXFSozWtAw
Day 27 of leave.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8RTdd1uWJ
His sense of embodiment began to dissolve.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcslbQkWQ1
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.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFeIJIdfw4
He wrote:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHE16eqBsr
"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."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmX7CHtzSj
He called this state:"The Observer Shell."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8spfwuP4o
That month, he left only one note with any raw emotion:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jSlPSveCd
"This isn't leave. This is exile."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFWWc5OmH2
Tuesday, October 1st93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnA0cH1VIT
There was no record of him anywhere.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwZSwLYlMi
Not just absent from duty—he vanished from all systems:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGHQNuZM1A
No CCTV.No login logs.No GPS.No medical pings.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFn2jORvOp
Even his phone signal stalled at:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBy2OWMaTmv
September 30th, 23:5993Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tcd7eUIpm
But at 23:51, a shadowy figure flickered across the precinct's backdoor camera.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkw9EfPpGhi
He wore a uniform.Moved exactly like Zhang Huan-an.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtspfeE35O
But his face—blurred.As if a veil of unfocusable time masked his features.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNIqJWQ60K
The system flagged the footage as "outdated recording"—with a timestamp marked:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6t3a3sdN3
October 1st, 202593Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMTptx6q22
He appeared.But in a time that did not yet exist.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRuaP8MjQI
Friday, October 4th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwMj9f5auF
He reappeared in the precinct hallway—civilian clothes, bloodshot eyes, notebook in hand.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEy22KziTXq
Someone asked:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iLtdtYonv
"Where have you been?"93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WKwZGpKsM
He replied:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuK6moKDutk
"I never left.You've only just caught up to the day I was already on."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29KH7mzVLc
His tone—calm.Eyes unwavering.Every word sounded… rehearsed.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdFwjsNn6a
But a second later, he stopped speaking—bit his lip, as if warned from inside.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBvfTl9259i
He was beginning to feel it:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopPSa5vrir
His right to language was being revoked.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq2uZ5o2GO
That night, a note was found on his desk:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJgd2I8Sxc
[2024/10/04]93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67IIJD7iOu
High overlap in memory today.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs5JKdep8z
Morning: I conversed with Chief Lin in Xinan.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoemcHSJ02J
Afternoon: I was still in bed, unmoving.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEfWTJXqS9
Both memories complete. No gaps.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxC7eVBkge
→ Assessment: dual consciousness syncing, not yet integrated→ Suspected "memory proxy" present—someone else experienced the event, but I can recall it with emotional precision93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXajjrZNbO
Annotation: "I didn't live this day, but I remember it."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxq8syVNZ8
Tuesday, October 15th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxl7n8zkHF
He was spotted at Tamsui MRT Station.Blank stare. Civilian clothes.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXGntjvTPm
At 5:40 AM, a civilian photographed him standing at a narrow alley by Sanmin Market,whispering to a peeling wall:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5q4T1L4G3z
"The me from here should already be dead…but you're still speaking to me."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L7WbpmdWW
When approached, he smiled and replied:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXHRvLzEa9
"You're a year too late.But that's not your fault."93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXd0gzomQ0c
His words felt like a conversation—but the air held no answer.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6zRFSavcW
—93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOmlhpd5CY
That night, his journal bore handwriting unmistakably not his:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlo0KFT0Uj8
[Y.A.]93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eNdElgydX
Zhang, if you're still here—stop trying to go back.We came from opposite ends.We can't both turn around.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVoZH4fUcb
If we meet again,neither of us will survive.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKM2iQAGQA
Friday, October 18th93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1NsEk86Z2
His leave was extended.Official reason: recurring spatiotemporal confusion.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHXbtNbxvw
But that day, he appeared in a past assignment log:93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeX3FB4Sy3
[Supplemental Entry]2024/06/14, FridayZhang Huan-an — Present at Longjing Migrant Factory Preliminary Review93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSXXn77FaE
But that day's photos clearly showed him in October's clothes—not the attire from June.93Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JKmwdZpsk
Logs unsynced.Identity displaced.The system began to "remember" days he hadn't lived—and forget the ones he had.
