Chen Ke carefully recalled the events of last night, awakened by the excruciating pain of having his heart gouged out, then crawling out of a pool of blood before meeting the first person who wanted to kill him.
He reflected on his experiences over the past dozen hours, trying to pinpoint the moment when time started to go awry.
Chen Ke believed that Parker was the key to understanding the time anomaly, much like Schrodinger's cat.
On October 4th, Parker entered the Black Box Space and encountered a duplication effect before jumping into the Great Void.
When he entered the Spirit Explosion Space where Chen Ke was located, through a door on one side of the Great Void, that was when the disorder in time started.
Perhaps he arrived earlier than Chen Ke, perhaps later, but anyhow, Chen Ke and Parker met.
Their timelines became intertwined, and after encountering a pack of dogs in the lobby, it was unclear which one of them triggered the condition that split time.
