Have a happy new year.

I know, the description is quite generic but does it ring a bell to anyone? I think I had it saved in my ao3 board but I'm afraid the author deleted it or something.

I was recently rewatching season 1 together with a friend and, once I reached episode 3, I felt like something was missing: I am pretty sure that, when Qiao Link is running, there used to be an explicit mention of a serial killer's 3rd victim; also, I distinctly remember Chen Xiao specifically saying that he never married, due to the trauma. Now, there is nothing of the sort and I'm wondering if it's just me experiencing a mandela effect or if something was actually changed, how they did in episode 5.5, where the mobile phone was changed into an instant camera.

I know, it is so much like Homura. What can I say, I like the concept and, especially, I adore the idea of Cheng Xiaoshi acting all cool and mature when his "little brother" is around, and only later allow himself to show his vulnerable side with the reliable Lu Guang.

I can totally picture Lu Guang telling Xiaoshi things like: hate me, if you want, as long as you're safe.
