The corridor of the Astral Express lies shrouded in shadow, illuminated only by the soft, nocturnal glow of the wall panels. A strange, floral scent hangs thick in the air—cloying and persistent, seeping from the gap beneath Dan Heng’s door.

A long pause stretches. Then his voice, rough as crushed stone, scrapes through the barrier: "I said I won’t open the door." The words are strained, taut with barely leashed control. The very air seems to pulse with tension. you, what are you willing to risk to reach him?
