I can rewind time to prevent death

Ke'er patted her belly and let out a satisfied burp.

This action, though terrifying, was also kind of cute, making Yan Junze smile wryly.

Looking at the Back-faced Woman, "Also, when I came in, what medicine were you looking for? You're a strangeness, even if you're wounded, do you need to use medicine?"

The Back-faced Woman, like Ke'er, didn't immediately reply, just shook her head and glanced at Ke'er.

"Let's not worry about that for now, we'll talk about it later. I have a plan now to kill a few of these guys, then we'll take the opportunity to escape," Yan Junze said, as he pushed the medicine cabinet behind the door but didn't block it completely.

Turning back to the Back-faced Woman, "They should be searching the third floor any minute now, so you and Ke'er need to be extra careful. These people have a weapon that emits a golden glow to suppress the strangeness field. Later they will split up and search each room one by one, most likely in pairs. As soon as at least two people enter the room, we need to control them immediately..."

Because in the previous rewind, Yan Junze had seen the Brown-clothed People dealing with the Back-faced Woman and her daughter, he knew that if two people entered the room at the same time, it would be very difficult for the Back-faced Woman to catch them by surprise and control both.

As he explained, he released Long-tongued Zhenzhen and the Crawler Monster.

"It's okay, it's okay, they're friends, no need to be nervous," Yan Junze said, "This is Long-tongued Zhenzhen and the Crawler Monster, this is the Back-faced Woman. Ke'er, you know both of them. The Back-faced Woman is Ke'er's mom, they're all family."

The first sentence was mainly addressed to Zhenzhen and the Crawler, as upon their release, although they were somewhat surprised and pleased to see Ke'er, the sudden presence of the Back-faced Woman in the same room, and the pressure of her power made them alert and defensive.

If Yan Junze didn't speak up to reassure them, it's possible they would have started a fight with the Back-faced Woman there and then.

Normally, when Yan Junze released them, it was because they were needed for something, and more often than not, it was for a fight.

This was something that both Long-tongued Zhenzhen and the Crawler Monster had grown accustomed to.

Whether they could win or not was another question, but Zhenzhen would definitely not back down, nor would the Crawler Monster, who might have been mentally handicapped in life but was unquestionably loyal in protecting his master. He would not retreat either.

So, the Crawler Monster trembled but still positioned itself in front of Yan Junze.

Zhenzhen wasn't trembling, but she too had a degree of fear for the Back-faced Woman, even though her current strength allowed her to confront the Back-faced Woman alone.

Of course, the outcome was obvious.

"Since Ke'er left last time, her mother hadn't met you guys, so get to know each other quickly," Yan Junze continued, "And our enemies will be the Brown-clothed People who will be coming to search the room later. Now, everyone follow my arrangements..."

After a round of planning, the medicine room became quiet.

The room's furnishings were simple, a row of medicine cabinets, a desk and chair, a temporary examination bed, and a rolling screen.

The room was filled with a strong smell of medicines, but after staying for a while, you couldn't smell anything anymore.

Yan Junze hid himself behind the medicine cabinet.

The Crawler Monster climbed up to the ceiling and hung upside down right above the door, motionless.

Ke'er and Long-tongued Zhenzhen stood with their backs against the wall facing the door.

The Back-faced Woman stood behind the screen, which was placed to the left as one entered the room, almost parallel to the doorway, and also subtly facing the direction of the door.

The room quickly became quiet, no one spoke again, and there were no sounds of breathing, except for Yan Junze's own.

The Back-faced Woman, hidden behind the screen, felt that Yan Junze, in the same space-time, was always in his Semi-Spirit Body, but she wasn't sharing her perspective with that Yan Junze.

As per Yan Junze's previous instructions in this room, aside from intentionally glimpsing the Brown-clothed People downstairs through shared perspective in the hallway, she kept the perspective-sharing turned off.

By now, the other Yan Junze had seen the Back-faced Woman and Ke'er in what appeared to be a hospital room.

Several minutes later, light footsteps came from outside the corridor; the Brown-clothed People, in pairs, began their search on the third floor.

Yan Junze remembered that when he was sharing a perspective with the Back-faced Woman, Ke'er had brought that heart right up to his face for him to see. During this process, there were unavoidably noises made in this room.

Then a group of Brown-clothed People burst into the medicine room, suggesting that they had heard the noises coming from here and didn't bother searching other rooms but came straight to this place.

Now, not a single sound came from this medicine room, and according to the deployment of the Brown-clothed People's leader, they still methodically searched every room.

In reality, based on Yan Junze's speculation, these people, geared with advanced equipment, looked formidable and were likely able to deduce through some device that the Back-faced Woman and Ke'er were still in this building.

Why they couldn't accurately pinpoint the exact location of the mother and daughter might have something to do with the precision of their locating devices. Like the Spirit Detectors in the hands of Exorcists, they could only determine the presence of strangeness within a certain range.

Perhaps the mother and daughter moving through multiple rooms in the building resulted in an unstable Spirit Exploration Flavor.

Soon, the footsteps of two people approached and stopped outside the door.

Yan Junze immediately held his breath and pricked up his ears to the activity outside.

There were indeed two sets of footsteps outside the door, and neither person spoke, possibly listening for any sounds from inside.
