Du Chengran traveled to a period of time "rewritten by mind control" and discovered that Yao Ruoqing was not only the anchor of his destiny, but also the key to this manipulation. Every time he wants to get closer to the truth, his memory will be erased and he will be forced to reset; but when he learns to reverse-encode the mental imprint, he can turn the rules into weapons in the next reboot. The exhilaration is accompanied by a series of reversals: he trades restart for freedom, and uses mind-control duel to force out the truth.
