I can rewind time to prevent death

Deng Bing took over the conversation at this point, "It might be because I practiced with the dumbbells last night before going to sleep and accidentally didn't place them securely, so they rolled out." "Can I say that your little accident might have saved your wife's life?" Yan Junze smiled, "Looking at it now, Xia Ruolan, you are very lucky. The plants in your house saved you, and so did your husband." If the dumbbells in reality were still leaning against the corner of the wall, Yan Junze might not have come up with this hypothesis. But now it confirmed a fact, Xia Ruolan indeed almost lost her life in the dream, and if it weren't for the plants and the dumbbells, she might really have been strangled by that "Deng Bing" in the dream. Up until now, Yan Junze was still holding on to his two previous conjectures. One was that the strangeness was hidden in a certain photograph, and the other was that it always existed in the dreams, just projecting itself onto photographs in some way. Now that they had gathered enough information, it was time to show some real skills! Time was pressing, with each day they dallied, these people were more likely to never wake up again from their sleep. In front of Xia Ruolan and Deng Bing, Yan Junze took out his phone and made a call to Huang Chen, instructing him to immediately notify all individuals involved in the photo turning 'round incidents to gather at the Fantasy Photo Studio on Lion Awakening Road at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Huang Chen asked what was going on, and Yan Junze only said that he would know when he got there, also reminding everyone to bring the original photo where their head turned. "What about the person with the most dangerous head-turning photo who is now under the protection of three-star Exorcists? Should I go?" Huang Chen inquired. "Yes." Yan Junze hung up the phone and asked Xia Ruolan, who, although she didn't know what he was planning, still said she could arrive at the Fantasy Photo Studio on Lion Awakening Road at any time. Since her original photo was on her phone, which she always carried with her, there was no need to go back and retrieve it. Yan Junze then called Gu Bai, telling him to inform his wife Lin Meng to get ready with her camera because a large group of customers was on the way. The customers also included Lin Meng's good friend, Xia Ruolan. Gu Bai didn't know what was happening and, out of fright, not only called Lin Meng but also immediately asked for leave from the gold shop owner and hurriedly headed back earlier than planned. He feared that Lin Meng might not be able to handle it alone, so he rushed back to help out. Yan Junze and company sat outside Happy Ocean Park for over an hour, and he carefully reviewed the plan, feeling it was feasible. If anything unexpected happened in the meantime, they could rely on Rewind to solve it. The group left the park and made their way towards Lion Awakening Road. Fantasy Photo Studio belonged to Gu Bai's wife, Lin Meng, and was also where Yan Junze dealt with the peeping tom strangeness last time. Some of the individuals involved in the head-turning photo incidents had already arrived, some alone and some accompanied by family members. Gu Bai had already rushed back to the studio and was helping Lin Meng welcome the customers. One by one, these people's expressions were gloomy, with furrowed brows, either clutching their phones, holding paper photographs, or even some with digital cameras hanging around their necks, clearly having taken the photos with digital cameras. Yan Junze settled Ku Zai and Xiang Er in a bookstore on the street. As he arrived with Xia Ruolan and Deng Bing, Huang Chen also arrived, bringing a few people involved in the incidents. Upon meeting, Huang Chen pulled him aside and whispered, "What are we preparing to do now? I'll tell you, even the small team captain from Shuntian knows about this. If there's no explanation for gathering so many victims together, I'll be punished when I return." Yan Junze nodded and explained, "If it's indiscriminate killing, I'm now preparing to lure this strangeness over. Targeting me, I will be the one to resolve it." "How will you lure it?" Huang Chen asked distrustfully, turning his head towards the victims. Yan Junze said, "Each photo contains that woman in the black dress, so I'm gathering all the victims here, each holding that bizarre photo, and standing together with me, we'll take a big group photo. That is to say, in this group photo, I am the only new member joining the 'Black Skirt Club.' It's hard for the woman not to notice me, and that's the first step of my plan." "Black Skirt Club?" Huang Chen was taken aback. Yan Junze chuckled, "I just made that up on the spot, don't sweat the details. I haven't finished yet. After the photos come out, just keep one for me. Then, I have a way to reveal the true form of this strangeness, whether it's in the photos or in the dreams." "You...when will your plan take effect?" Huang Chen was a bit puzzled. "Time waits for no one," Yan Junze said, "the effect could be as soon as tonight. If all goes well, you can expect good news from me tomorrow. Think about it, the power of a single photo in these people's hands is already so significant. My group photo, containing all the involved parties and their photos, is like after collecting all Seven Dragon Balls and calling forth the dragon! It's hard for the Black Dress Woman not to notice me." "Summon the damn dragon!?" Huang Chen stared at him with a "what the hell did I just eat" expression. "Is everyone here yet?" Yan Junze looked up and asked. Huang Chen turned to count and said, "We're still missing the one protected by the three-star Exorcist, the most dangerous one at the moment, Yang Zhijun." Right after he spoke, he pointed towards the distance, "Here they come, that's them. The three-star Exorcist's name is Li Yue, wielding a magnetic knife with wide and tight maneuvers, creating an impenetrable defense within two meters—spirits and ghosts dare not come close..." He hadn't finished describing before Yan Junze interrupted, "Do you think you've watched too many martial arts movies?" Huang Chen chuckled and then shut his mouth. Li Yue was a tall and burly man, indeed looking like a personal bodyguard at first glance, whereas Yang Zhijun was skinny and small, appearing listless with two prominent dark circles under his eyes. Clearly, this guy probably hadn't dared to sleep for days. Yan Junze took a longer look at Yang Zhijun and noticed he looked like he could pass out at any moment, his mental state seeming extremely poor. Meanwhile, Li Yue, who was walking behind him, kept reminding him, seeming to urge him not to sleep. Upon arriving at the entrance of the photo studio, Li Yue glanced at Yan Junze, having already heard of Yan Junze's reputation, especially the news from the Tianmeng side, which had reached his ears. Truth be told, Li Yue was out of options too. Unable to find the strangeness and while protecting Yang Zhijun, he could only allow him to sleep briefly—about ten minutes—before waking him up, preventing him from entering deep sleep. He knew that if this continued, Yang Zhijun might go insane even if he didn't die. So, if Yan Junze really had a way to remove that strangeness, naturally it would be the best outcome. After exchanging a few pleasantries, Li Yue immediately asked, "What do we do now?" "Photographing," Yan Junze turned to call Lin Meng to prepare. At this moment, Gu Bai came out with an embarrassed expression and said, "Although I've converted the entire dark room into a shooting room, I didn't consider the space needed for so many people in a group photo. What should we do? Should we take it on the street?" Yan Junze shook his head, "There's too much human energy on the street, which might affect the appearance of that strangeness." As soon as these words were spoken, Gu Bai and Lin Meng, who had just come out, were stunned. Did that mean they had to choose a gloomy, terrifying place for the photo shoot? Were they trying to scare people to death? Thinking of this, both of them couldn't help but shudder. All of a sudden, Huang Chen slapped his forehead, "Right, there's No. 7 Mansion on Lion Awakening Road. It used to be haunted for a while, rather violently at that. In the process of getting rid of it, we lost a two-star Exorcist. The whole No. 7 Mansion has been empty ever since, with nobody living there." He gestured toward the left side of the street, "It's just not far over there." "Perfect, perfect, that place is perfect for taking photos," Yan Junze told Lin Meng, "Get the camera ready, we're heading over." Lin Meng was startled. She had been living there and naturally knew about the haunted No. 7 Mansion. It was said people died inside; normally, she would hurry past with her head down, daring not to look. And now, she was actually being asked to go inside for photographing. This felt like tempting fate!
