Yan Junze checked the time, noting that 15 minutes had already passed of the remaining 36 minutes he had set for the "Rewind" deadline, leaving 21 minutes.

The footsteps stopped directly outside room 004 after passing by, followed by a knock about two seconds later.
A strange male voice came through, "Is there... anyone inside?"
"Huff..."
