Hyperthymesia. Those with this condition can remember every detail of their lives from something as significant as the world’s turning point to something as small and as insignificant as a minor fleeting thought. They cannot forget and their thirst for knowledge allows them to be considered genius in some senses.

Legend has it that Ji Yushi was this kind of genius.

In addition, it was said that he was gay and very beautiful.

As soon as the news that he was going to support Tianqiong’s seventh squad broke out, it sent everyone buzzing.

Everyone knew that the captain of the seventh squad, Song Qinglan, was a hoodlum and deeply homophobic.

He not only relied on his super-powerful abilities to become the dark horse on the battlefield in less than two years, but he also hates it when those at the top forced a flower vase* into his squad.

Sure enough, Song Qinglan announced in front of everyone, “Useful? Us brothers are going out there working ourselves to the bone, we don’t need a little genius who can only speedread quantum waves!”

Later.

The squad was forced into a dire situation during their mission.

That beautiful little genius calmly continued, every gunfire hitting the mark, his fighting power peaking.

Song Qinglan begged in front of everyone, “Adviser Ji, stay.”

In the end, he added, “I’ll work myself to the bone for you.”

*****

Ji Yushi had a secret.

He would often be awake at night, suffering from memory overload and recurring nightmares.

There was only one thing that could let him fall asleep peacefully.

And that was Song Qinglan.

*Flower vase: Someone who only looks pretty but can’t amount to much

One of the best Sci-Fi BL novels there! Many thanks to KK Translates for the impeccable translation that attempts to explain the various missions (ie. Story arcs). The main couple and all side characters are all very likeable and the HE ending makes it all enjoyable. I highly recommend this novel!

I really can't imagine the setting and I still didn't get how they solve it.

Overall, I like the story even though I'm still confused on some part. Massive salute to the Author-nim who came up with such a great plot and idea.

I... really don't have anything to say other than MASTERPIECE! 1000000000/5 (LOL)

I finished reading this awesome novel not even a week, even though the cases hurt my brains, but I keep going!

Honestly, I'm not really into this kind of genre. a theme like this will always I drop.

... more>> BUT. NOT FOR THIS ONE.

I'M SO IN LOVE! I can't believe this kind of story exists and makes me want to re-read all the same themes I dropped before :')

The author was so amazing! this story blew my mind up.

The way they write case every case, the connection, all of the characters. It's a top-notch!

MC and ML character development is so neutral. And will giving you a surprise in the end with the twist.
I love is so much! There's no annoying character on this novel, every character took their part so well.
And when I finished this, I feel so empty TT

This is a must-read novel!
Please don't miss or skip this novel!

Also, for KK translation, thank you so much for picking this up! And your translation is sooooooo sooooooo good as usual <3 <<less

This was a great read, especially if you like brain teasers and a lot of thrills. I found it fascinating and wonderful. I have no idea how the author managed to plot out such intricate time loops, (they also did quite a bit of physics research), that was truly amazing. And with an intricate set up the plot and characters stood up to the challenge! That's always the tricky bit. Making everything work together. I usually find time travel books a bore but this one had me binge reading... more>> in 24 hrs it was so exciting. And the way our couple got together had humor, caring and a lot of love involved. Loved this story!! <<less

If you are wondering whether to read this or not I would 10/10 recommend it. The plot is stunning and the characters are absolutely wonderful, the translator is so amazing and was able to carry over the meaning so well from original work. I cannot get ver the two main characters, both are smart and work so well together. I want to re-read all over.

This is a really good read, I’m so glad I gave myself a chance to read this!

It’s very interesting and no dull moment at all. Every character seem to be thought so well and just everything seems so right!

As for the romance, I don’t think that it’s actually that slow burn
Spoiler

they did become together at chap 70+ but before that, you can already feel the tension between them and the tacit understanding

This is my first review on novelupdates (My English is not good so previously I didn't want to post the review)

I'm here to say that the story is too good. It's a masterpiece! Everything is just fit to my taste.

MC and ML are both likeable. They're smart and strong. Other side-characters are also very funny. No annoying or air-headed characters in the story which is great (unlike some novels that some cannon fodders are too 2 dimensional).

The main plot itself is also very well written. It's about time and... more>> the author has done a good job explaining theories. The story is fast-paced and I have to praise the author for nicely balancing romance and the main plot. Both go well together and I don't feel bored reading the whole story in one go at all.

I really would like to read other works of this author - wish someone soon pick up her other works. <<less

In my opinion one of the best written time travel novels ever. Usually time travel novels have numerous plot holes where things get left out. Mist brings a full circle in everything. It plays on the concept of time not existing as a line but as a galaxy where everything occurs at once.

The characters are just so well written, Noone was left out from front to end everyone in the story from main to side characters played such important roles.

If you need motivation to read this novel, you have to... more>> understand that even I was in the mud for many parts in the novel. But eventually at every few points, everything clicks and just makes sense, especially the last quarter of the novel, there's a reason for every occurance and detail in the novel.
Spoiler

The ending is happy HE ending everything plays out right and no regrets are left over all circles are closed

SUCH a great story ong

I've reread this like 4 times already but the way the plot unfolds and the romance is just too good. The plot, the twists, and THE HUMOR between squad 7 its just perfect.

Like with a different novel, Global Examination, it can be hard to understand at times because of how complex the plot is, but once you start to understand it, it's so exciting.

Amazing plot truly even if sometimes it is a bit hard to follow the logic. Had to take some notes along the way to understand some explanation.

Absolutely amazing

I got really invested in the story very easily. Though the characters have that cold, distant archetype they’re not boring, they’re extremely interesting and well fledged. MC and ML both have distinct personalities that are so fun to read.

The plot often left me reeling and trying to pick up the clues and the details, and when everything came to a conclusion in the end it was both very satisfactory and mind boggling.

It was pretty good.

Sometimes Song Qinglan was giving me some secondhand embarrassment because he was just so intensely in the honeymoon stage that it was making him make some weird decisions. And they may have moved a bit too fast for their specific relationship. But they are very cute together, and I do enjoy Song Qinglan as a character. A character like him could very easily come off like a generic 2 dimensional possessive alpha male, but he was embarrassing enough to give him some depth and make me fond... more>> of him. And I actually felt closer to him as a pov character even though Ji Yushi is the main character.

The romance is the highlight of the book. The plot is ok, but it could have leaned harder into any sort of theme and the side-characters are a little bit underutilized. But it works for this story I guess.

Still not sure what a productive use of their job would be though, given the events of the story. Like how are they SUPPOSED to be doing this? Like other than to stop other time travelers, wouldn’t it f*ck up the timeline very badly to stop anything else? It kind of doesn’t matter though. <<less

This one is pretty good.

Also, the narration is also superb. The translation is good.

The plot is great. The dimensions concept is good. I expected more of the twists and turns but I did not get what I expected. I expected a lot from these because of the reviews.

... more>> I just hope there were more extra chapters.

I hope that the reason why his father decided to kill himself should be explained more. It was explained why but I want more in depth and possibly throwback narration.

But still, this is pretty good. I was just disappointed because I was expecting more conflicts and twist. <<less

WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT MIST! Such a great read, I’m stumped with how the author comes up with the scenarios. Extremely thrilling and the romance is heart warming <3

The characters are all very likeable and MC and ML have good chemistry.

Put off reading this for the longest time because the first half of the synopsis and cover image looked too melodramatic for my tastes. After reading it, would say it really isn’t that melo or emotional as I expected. Didn’t cry in this, even at the sad parts but I really got into the novel and didn’t really put it down much once I started.

The romance aspect is top notch. The domestic fluff and the confession and the jibes from the team members—such a joy to read. My favourite when... more>> both leads are strong characters & have their own expertise but still gel well together. Romance alone is a definite 6/5, favourite for sure.

Then... comes to the main plot of the story which is the time travel aspect. As it usually is with time travel focused novels or world hopping or parallel universes—not my usual preference as there is the tendency paradoxes/plot holes appear. Either it has to be explained very clearly (the translation was already very good, I think I’m just not quick enough to follow the explanations) or it has to be simplified way more. Problem with simplification though is that it loses the reader engagement. So with this relatively detailed novel with time loops it made my brain hurt, I understood like 70%? But it got me invested enough. The mission build ups and potential perils and the lead up to the overall major plot point was good and woven in very well. I felt anxious and worried and discomfited at the points where I was supposed to. It made the domestic fluff that came after so much sweeter but it was mildly painful emotionally to wait so long for it.

I feel I could give it another re-read to better understand the time-related mechanisms to have an even deeper appreciation for this novel but I have a feeling I might end up in the same state because of my personal beliefs on how time travel should work.

Spoiler

Like the anchoring and loops, I don’t get the premise of what needs to happen to break the loop/create the loop. If it’s entirely set by the system then what’s the point, it can technically set any condition it wants. Haha let me list down the things I don’t get: Ouroboros and Overload—I don’t see why they can’t meet as long as they don’t create outcomes that affect the earlier team’s decisions. It is supposed to be linear how can the paradox occur and a team disappear? By right any decision made in future to impact the past should have already happened. Which might have been tried to explain with the multiple realities coalescing into one, parallel timelines thing which I really don’t get. Which is also why I don’t get what MC’s father was trying to accomplish. I expected the purple hoodie dude to be the MC early on but why must he die and why must his dad kill himself but still flutter around as he wishes?? Then oh it’s a separate looping timeline where the MC dies but it doesn’t affect the main timeline they’re on...

[collapse]

Anyway... if I try and spell out my confusion it affects my appreciation of the novel, haha. If I don’t think so much, actually it’s pretty nice. Just go along with the story flow you kinda know overall what’s happening and enjoy the romance. Might re-read in future. :) <<less

Not exactly mindblowing it's just okay. The relationshio between MC and ML is good but the story and plot makes me think this novel does not deserves the hype. Everything including the worldbuilding just feels okay and the plot twist at the end is too predictable.

It’s an absolute gem. I loved the scenarios and how the entire story unfolded. Being able to go along with the MC and find out all sorts of details and the MC’s past was super interesting. The ML was nothing special, however that did not take away from my overall love for the story, considering the love interest is usually there to act as a support system for the MC when they are going through tough times.

I liked it and I think the romace was okay. The plot however is quite complicated and can be hard to follow if you're not attentive enough when the MC is explaining stuff. It's not that bad really, you just shouldn't skim through the explanations that come early in the novel. You don't have to understand 100% (Ji Yushi the protag will literally explain it a 100 times dw) just make sure to understand the basics and it all will make sense.

The plot twists sure were exciting and crazy, but... more>> it can get kind of confusing at times. If you do not like bl novels with a heavy emphasis on the plot this book probably is not for you. Personally, stories with this kind of heavy plot are usually not my cup of tea but the author pulled it of very well- but in the end I still did not enjoy it as much as everybody else.

The downsides for me would be the lack of proper character interactions. Throughout the chapters I couldn't get myself to feel attached, I am not sure why, it was just missing something crucial? the story also really talked so much about all these confusing phenomenons, that I really couldn't care less about with TONS of info dumps. I just feel like the MC breezed through all the trials to easily I know he is a genius and all that like the description mentioned (the illness of remembering everything and every little detail, hyperthymesia) but it kind of made every achievement boring which is my personal opinion.

And at last, I felt there was not enough romance!!! even the enemy part in the enemies to lovers trope, felt bland... KEEP IN MIND that I have read a lot of BL's and my standards have become wayyy higher. There was just to much focus on the plot that the love felt kind of rushed and fake in a way. I just dont feel like ML and MC got to know each other properly. The love was just kind of crammed in a story that wasn't supposed to include love was how it felt like. I probably wouldn't have read it again. Maybe if I was new to this genre I'd totally give this a five and ignore all of these bad points.

Alas, I'll give it a 3.5 <<less
