The wind had never truly stopped—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZohleUfihI
he had simply never noticed how it passed through his fingers,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZ7OPOJbFS
like a calling from the future: soft, slow, and irreversible.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0Zdx93acq
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5gFN20Dge
He rose, leaving the shard behind.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSlBNj9IBT
Not as an act of remembrance,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRnO3z0JhA
but as a silent mark—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM5dPgBngh
a trace that it had once existed.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIo0pfj6hQ
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡub9b0i3hYR
Not to memorialize,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8mwcXCwK9
but to remind himself—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbjLTjrTI0
that fracture would never open again,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWWHu5h7kl
because he had chosen57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekwP85vDzQ
not to stand at the edge.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FEvzFSXch
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtbidqFGoa
He stepped out of the dim room,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoR8QgOB9ey
the door closing on its own,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jYZoBECl3
like a chapter time itself had sealed.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlX77oDLIX
No farewell needed—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7WHxfvjSF
for the truest goodbyes57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0LgRki4wh
are the ones where no glance is cast back.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPUGzLSjCJ
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgPGCzyase
The street was lit by a faint glow,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HB16tyLeJ
not quite dawn, not quite night—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1E5dFxyNj
a hue suspended in-between,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn00WXh2yFP
like a dawn that had yet to be named.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkUh76pJ8g
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvdhCQdBmt
He no longer asked who he was.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppvLhMSGHP
Because at last, he understood—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPv15v3gtOc
he was not someone's lingering shadow,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmS1aKYmC5X
nor a solution waiting in the future,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaNbCWePCP
but the journey itself—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zvRDT9ZOT
a presence born from every crossing.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBobrrsl0CQ
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjQbhUTGqK
He walked across the remnants of restructured time,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMtMZzxOQa
each step no longer a repeat;57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQC1vfAqJH
each breath, the first breath of being alive.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimhutbbY0d
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEpG9XS8K1
"I remember them," he said to himself.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKajGvaoH04
"But this time, I'll walk for me."57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBTTFUXbz3
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkc8wTTzbUx
Not to mend the past,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmph76X2YR
nor to flee from fate,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqkY5792eR
but to let living57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2DWKrQbCG
be something more57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZ0poqDS9b
than an extension of others.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7Hhn4DMsC
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uRc85Fb8B
In the distance,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡva6U3KBOOa
the hum of traffic,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08Y9Rc6B8P
a faint melody,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH5JekQL3g
and a silhouette—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YMmHCGNHH
strange yet familiar—stood silently at the corner.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXV9wotM9ti
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOzgUOjbtA
He didn't run after it.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCcBnvnozW
It could've been a fading memory,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tBFLilttA
or a meeting not yet written.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEplF2GyKV
But this time—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXjflfEjPK
he chose to wait for the future to arrive,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0eyeRIlGZA
rather than chase the past.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9HZI2ob5O
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyba0ILRGn1
He looked up.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYvMR1H9i4
A line of birds crossed the sky,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EkH6jHlXE
like a soul finally in motion—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3Lq28xKcH
one that no longer needed a name.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVHxZaKa8C

Sunday: A Room That Isn't His, and Yet Is57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs85izK07Zt
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotS5dTUakU
It wasn't dusk in a dream,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcMjFqnppT
nor the hollow pause of broken time—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEjDuwBcjH
but something wedged57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15M5IDthnc
between yesterday and tomorrow.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEOPN8vDSG
The air familiar,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5ed1oZnqX
the rhythm of breath unfamiliar.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH48PPyDfis
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpClUmd0VNI
He lay on a minimal bed.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYEQYJxVDK
Silence surrounded him.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Q8IjgVj5q
Only a dim wall lamp flickered,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjSktxQ8NQ
casting shadows across the white wall,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmMa95LmLZ
like pieces of memory he could never restore.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVekRpl62xO
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1A37f6S24
His phone buzzed. He glanced at it.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1F0SBLTgD

Date: February 23, 2025 (Sunday)57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7HMz8ueA3
Time: 05:42 AM57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6uLGvADRA
Location: Qiyang District, Linzi Precinct Dormitory B, Room 30357Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBZWCYuAbC
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaEvRyzx18
He stared at the digits,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwYFI4Kt1L
as if each one concealed57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdUnWzStVh
a truth trying to deceive him.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hSdnXAo1h
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqCV4K2jdU
This wasn't where he first awoke.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgampScO9GP
But this was where he was meant to awaken.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1mj9vnKAS
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIzZX6xhwx
He sat up. No headache—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAguh0ttL8X
just a hollow in his chest,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO27Pi9oFvW
as if something had been set down,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgU44gMGMYp
or was waiting to be picked up again.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjEd1ew4nA
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqYE6LN53z
A uniform hung by the iron frame.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh4qGZB4tf
The name tag read:57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPcuEp8gqV
Yu Yong-An. Inspector. Prevention Unit.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZG6K8MMjy1
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfj6v4fStWO
He touched the name tag,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSZmin4CIJ
a complex feeling swelling within—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DCiVceV0a
both familiar and foreign,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMte1EI8gDg
both identity and burden.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoVeKoteVu
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1I8leRDtTD
"So this is… my new life?"57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTUMN8suUi2
he whispered.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25Mj10vtpX
No one replied.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsS9Ak0XWz
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYM2KZXHWk
Outside, the world had awakened.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqng6nxMQPW
Morning calls echoed,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wTzfaKQWq
a garbage truck rattled by.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IyRFeKuOK
Everything was ordinary,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSfvMhaCg8
neatly staged—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchf8u3a3Tz
yet it all felt like a scene57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Iv2CmaU2X
rearranged for a script.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhSt5EIWI2
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtXF9eiAp1f
He stood, walked into the bathroom.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPyQ0OuUSz
The sound of running water filled the space.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0O6CQ5wOt
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgTEDlbYpi
The mirror reflected his face—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWrJvRMBNc
no longer fractured,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nzqlQTQZf
no longer a crumbling shadow.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoRgYlebZd
But not someone easily named, either.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNm3EgQgjgS
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSOjGjhxCG
He took a deep breath,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjTGuUJ1qz
and said to the mirror:57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv3qLp5S5i
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBa89wFH86
"Then live—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6sNwtVyqF
not for someone,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NdXILlRV3

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTt9w0LPIe
When he left the dorm,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSofVZrgz4F
the sky was just beginning to lighten.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCy75X5BDH
The city remained suspended in a shade of grey.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTdYsL7i9q
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK8JiqsPBl
He didn't check in.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnXweuPCH4
Didn't open his memo.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxIXxCpLEnd
Unread messages filled his screen—he didn't reply.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o1OJSv3TP
He knew where to go—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGxZL707RF
not from duty,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSRipPmzKh
not from orders,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTkflLpb5hx
but something deeper calling him forth.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmopl1SAgm
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwpi4IPXUg
He boarded a bus bound for Qiyang's heart.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqJl9xqZ2P
In the window,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9K5K1S9bS
half his face was reflected—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGZSodce76
a residue of the mirror that refused to fade.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNz2HDvaDB
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSGjNCfkRW
First station: Lin Yao-Qian.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lqMwgDsPg
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlKP5thZD5
They had worked together once,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRyAdLnyEd
shared silent glances over tea.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8OiXdm5tV
Yao-Qian had always been quiet,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9aFfeVRdvq
but quicker than anyone to sense the strange.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYjE2lyrat
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGXakHZ5kf
When he knocked,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQQswaux3u
Yao-Qian paused only a second, then smiled softly.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb0vYhFKEf
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFfXmukJx5
"You're back."57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡus7X0WJ2IT
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCm47aGymMh
Four words—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1amQcFJxWK
like a signal sent from a diverging timeline.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIVA91qXAu
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH40fzsiV5A
"How long was I gone?"57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUgahedfAv
"281 days. Minus one."57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡie7j5rLktF
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXthzYIDsU
There was no questioning,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXm08lHkgp3
no surprise at his exact memory.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQeJrZMHvr
Yao-Qian merely brewed two cups of tea, as always—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkYaT763Dv
but within the steam57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfkRKPyd3H
lingered an unspoken understanding:57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnM2poWRYg
Can memory ever be real?57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfomI2fSONm
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1m0xN21T2n
"You know who I'll go to next, don't you?"57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6SUjzcufU
"Yes. You'll seek out Chen Lu-Ping."57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA1cVEQhXk
"…How do you know?"57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7XDRGX0an
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwNu0ek7P8
Yao-Qian looked up, voice calm as still water:57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVnN4DVBKP
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoSy5lcbHO
"Because if it were me—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4f3IWPnOf2
I would've done the same."57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuhtVoldZf

Second station: Chen Lu-Ping.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8ufaaKriz
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy6G1KSenX
The newsstand behind the precinct had long closed.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrGpNmCokK
The old man, as usual, organized his notes in the afternoon.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VVbKMUeR7
That was Lu-Ping's ritual—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QamqYrGc8
to hide what he never made public57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pYiqQX1Or
in the silence of this quieter corner.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajEcVfKHxo
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8rB5fbUDi
"Lu-Ping," he said from the doorway.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuQt653wES
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyIHrie7IU
The old figure slowly turned.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcyKfVF8sW
His eyes didn't recognize him at first.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GMR76bscl
But after half a second, he spoke, voice low:57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybwTvXZxx5

"You didn't die, after all."57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Y7lSoNBEY

Strange words,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5Fm8ty1fQ
yet utterly real—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoImlQjqLi4
not a greeting,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tppdStED5
but a confirmation57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8l2jN53dgF
of a prophecy buried in time.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIR651TrUmG
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb9PjGIbTV
"You're here for the cross?"57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4OgwiUA4B

why you're still alive, aren't you?"57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEc3Z6cu3i
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7rJvpuV2j
He said nothing,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSeNimDigR
only watched Lu-Ping's hand—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCv6rYME3RJ
the one that once penned reports,57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOa1E5v3RHA
now trembling slightly.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBySBmME0h

The LUOYEH base still hid57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOVBnBO7Ct
beneath Qiyang's old city.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSm6cKoCeOn
The entrance had changed three times—57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYZjKz6oX7
yet he remembered the way.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymYtsW3MQ3
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGy7r8KzkTS
It wasn't memory.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzfNfDRyCz

Only shadows long expected.57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfJtDG6Ayb
