Hey, Qi. What is it?

Chief, we got a tip-off.

Sometime after 5 p.m. today,

a white van with armed suspects and explosives

will rob Fortune Bank

at Old Street Corner.

- That's it? - That's it.

Actually, no…

We can't handle this alone.

I was thinking maybe we could request backup from SWAT.

- Got a plate number? - Ran it. It's fake.

We can't stop them ahead of time.

There's a bomb onboard.

Could go off anytime.

How many suspects?

I…

I'm not sure.

What kind of people?

No clue.

So no plate, no suspect count,

not even a description,

and you want SWAT?

Go to bed.

I…

Got blown up before I stepped inside.

How could I know?

I'm begging you…

My son is trapped up there!

These notes look real.

They didn't even notice.

Cap,

Yeah. Something's off.

Still, Cap crushed it.

Cap finished it solo.

I'm freaking out.

Move! Get out!

Hurry!

Five!

Shit.

We're boxed in.

Everyone in the van.

You're completely surrounded.

Open the doors. Step out slowly with your hands visible.

Let's go down swinging, Cap!

Don't shoot!

Easy.

Qi!

Don't move.

…we now go live to our reporter on the scene.

Earlier today, near Old Street,

It happened around 6 p.m.

Five heavily armed suspects

cleaned out Fortune Bank

Police intercepted

the getaway van near New Development Tower.

The suspects refused to surrender,

triggering a gunfight.

Fortunately,

aside from the suspects,

there were no civilian casualties.

He's always the one

looking half-dead after a mission.

I'm telling you,

it's a kidney deficiency.

More like stress.

Does he even get stressed?

I do.

What for? We were surrounded by SWAT.

Still…

I swear

I dreamt we all died.

- What day is it? - What day is it?

He asks that every time he wakes up.

You stressed?

What for?

Just feel my heart pounding sometimes.

And I drool in my sleep now.

Definitely a kidney deficiency.

Spread the word.

Check the trunk of my car later. Got something good for everyone.

Sounds good.

Actually, I've got something too.

Here.

- Piss off. - On it.

Stealing again?

With that face of yours dark as the bottom of a pot,

even bird's nest soup won't fix it.

That's harsh.

It's been sitting there for days. No one touched it.

Didn't wanna waste it.

Forget that.

Tell me where did the intel

- come from? - Anonymous call.

You need a better excuse.

Fine. Want the truth?

I've got a power.

I'm stuck in a time loop.

Don't mess with me.

All those guns, all that detail.

How do you know so much? Make it make sense.

I'm telling the truth, but you don't believe me.

I've been reliving the same day. Again and again.

- That's how I knew they'd use a white va-- - Keep going.

Let's hear it.

I'm not writing this report.

You write it.

You can't explain properly.

And your story's all over the place.

Just say you don't want to write it.

Stop deflecting.

I'll write it like before.

Said you were brave.

- Handled it like a pro. - Cool.

Thanks in advance.

Stingy as hell.

Snatched the bird's nest too.

Nope. Not accepting disciples.

Typical sore-loser move.

Better hope I don't run into you.

Because if I do, I'll…

You alright, kid?

Yeah.

Just my luck.

It's already midnight. I'm done.

Going to bed.

- You alright, kid? - You alright, kid?

A couple holding hands.

Some cheap beer.

Alright.

Ding Qi, hop in. Let's destroy them.

I'm stuck in a loop.

You alright, kid?

I'm fine.

Kinda used to it now.

LOOP DAY FIVE

You alright, kid?

I'm the main character.

I'm the main character.

- Here. - Cheers.

I'm the lead in this story. No way I let you push me around.

- You-- - Hold up.

DECEMBER 24

I'm out.

DECEMBER 25

Get him!

It's not an endless loop.

There are five runs total.

Starts at zero hour.

Ends at midnight.

No matter where you are at midnight,

you reset to where you were at zero hour.

Every time I see you, I hit!

The fifth loop

is the final one.

Get lost.

There's no pattern to when the loop starts.

It's random.

Sometimes it hits on the worst possible day.

My thesis…

LOOP DAY ONE

LOOP DAY TWO

Other times,

it hits on the best days.

LOOP DAY THREE

LOOP DAY FOUR, LOOP DAY FIVE

Nice!

Nice!

Sir, what kind of cut you want?

- Make me look sharp. - No problem.

LOOP DAY TWO

- How's that? - Does it look good?

Looks great. How about a membership?

Alright, one more chance.

LOOP DAY THREE

Sir, what kind of cut you want?

Make me look sharp.

No problem.

I started to realize, on loop days,

I could mess around and take chances.

How's that?

Does it look good?

Of course.

How about a membership?

Alright, one more chance.

LOOP DAY FOUR

Sir, what kind of cut you want?

Just make me look decent.

No problem.

How's that?

Can I go out like this?

Looking sharp. How about a membership?

LOOP DAY FIVE

Happy with the cut?

Only you could've pulled this off.

- Sign me up. - Sure, right this way.

Turns out everyone's stuck in the loop too.

But.

- I'm the only one who remembers. - Perfect.

Little by little, I realized

I could actually change things.

LOOP DAY FIVE

I'm gonna do something

completely insane.

HUGE JACKPOT

But even then,

I still wasn't happy.

LOOP DAY ONE

Bet you've been hyped all day.

- For sure. - Let's check it out later.

- You pervert? - Hands off, creep!

- Nice hit! - Good one!

You creep. You've got no sense of shame.

No shame at all.

Shameless.

LOOP DAY TWO

- What are you doing? - Freaking pervert.

Did you grab her butt?

No. I just brushed past.

- I saw it. You grabbed her. - I didn't. It was an accident!

LOOP DAY THREE

Pervert.

- Were you gonna touch her butt? - I didn't even do it!

So you wanted to?

You sick creep. No shame.

I saw your hand.

- I didn't do anything. - Oh really?

That hurts!

LOOP DAY FOUR

- Trying to grab my ass? - Sir…

- You hit me! Call the cops! - Bad apples.

- Why'd you hit me? - You were staring at me. At my butt.

LOOP DAY FIVE

Sir, can you pull over? I'm getting out.

- Even if they don't remember anything. - Sir.

- There's something weird. - Sir.

- It's called déjà vu. - Please stop up ahead.

- That feeling it's happened before. - Open the door!

Excuse me. Let me off.

Hey pretty girl, let's exchange contacts.

- Let's take a selfie. - No thanks.

I'm good.

- One photo. What're you scared of? - Don't touch me!

Hey!

What are you doing?

Get him!

- Get him! - Beat his ass!

Stop!

Don't run!

Hands up!

- Holy shit. - Thanks.

With a power like this,

I have to make it count.

So now,

I want to do something that matters.

Come in.

Report.

Trainee officer 2254 reporting for duty.

Name?

Ding Qi.
