"Was that the second Mechanical Fragment?"
After the initial shock and suspicion, Han Su immediately realized what mattered.
Previously, whenever he flashed back, the different experiences in his Life Path had caused certain deviations and changes, but the time itself had never changed.
For example, if he had been taken back to the Ancient Castle by a flash at 10:35:17 p.m. on the thirteenth, then after escaping the castle and returning to the present, the time would have been 10:35:21 or 10:35:22, but it would never have become 10:35:15.
Time only moved forward. It never went backward. That seemed like an ironclad rule.
But this time, he had gone back—not just a little, either, but a full two days.
The situation was serious, unprecedented. Han Su couldn't begin to analyze the principle behind it, but tracing the cause was easy.
Compared with before, the only new thing in his Briefcase was the Mechanical Fragment Ms. Shen had given him in his previous Life Path. It had to be the thing that had taken effect and altered time.

Although he was still reeling from the shock, Han Su immediately settled on what mattered most. "Last time, I left the Ancient Castle with the Black Suitcase, and Miss Ai sent it to me through some mysterious logic. So what will happen this time?"
"That's enough. We have work
