Other people rely on talents, items, and powerful allies to carry them through horror instances.
Shen Yan relies on a payment of 3,800 yuan.
For the money, he takes a job inventorying an old building. But as soon as he opens a metal cabinet, a hand reaches out of the wall and drags him into the concrete.
Good news: he’s alive.
Bad news: he’s back where he was before opening the cabinet.
That’s when Shen Yan discovers he’s awakened an ability that makes absolutely no sense.
If he deliberately decides that a choice could have serious consequences, he can record it as a mistake in advance. If he dies, he can return to before the mistake happened.
From then on, while everyone else enters instances to survive, he enters them to run experiments.
Can this door be opened?
Let’s find out.
Will that ghost chase people?
Let’s find out.
What happens if I push a teammate out there?
Can’t test that one. I’ll keep it in mind for now.
Every time Shen Yan rewinds, he brings back new clues, but loses a little of his mental stability.
Insomnia, auditory hallucinations, misplaced memories, and things that should never have appeared.
When the final mistake was recorded, the writing on the wall changed.
【You’ve tried this many times.】
【This time, let me try.】
Shen Yan stared at the words, his gaze turning icy as he grabbed his toolbox.
“Fine. Just so we’re clear, if anything goes wrong, it’s on you.”
Starting with an old building, he stumbles into more and more paranormal incidents, and finally discovers that every time he rewinds, there is a hidden price to pay.
