Seven Days in Shanghai
Short Fiction沪上七日
Cai Yuze
In the autumn of 1948, Shanghai was in a precarious state. Shen Mo, director of the Special Operations Division of the Secrecy Bureau, was hit in the head by a mysterious silver pocket watch when he was tasked with hunting down an underground member of the Chinese Communist Party code-named "Skylark". When he woke up, he found that he was back three days ago. At first, Shen Mo thought it was memory confusion or a dream. But when he accurately predicts seven events that will happen over the next three days-including what a co-worker ordered for breakfast, an unexpected rain shower, and even an attempted assassination-he's finally convinced he's trapped in a time loop.
