1. it can be assumed that cxs's ability to dive into photos was transferred over to lu guang when he died in the first tl. like when li tianxi died, qiao ling inherited her ability.
2. im not sure exactly where he died (can be assumed to be in the tunnel since he was most likely shot) but he died on september 13th at 00:05am. this was pieced together by context clues. lu guang's passcode 091305 is the date and time cxs died in the first tl. last episode also shows lu guang's watch to show 00:05.
3. i think the restriction is just for cxs since he's a little selfless. i don't think lu guang can ever go back to the first tl considering cxs dies in all of them. in my theory it's that lu guang time traveled inside a photo so it's an endless loop to the point he can never go back to the og. but then again there's no confirmation for this. it's also seen that even when lu guang got injured, he never made the clap and exit the photo so he's definitely set on getting injured even it meant saving cxs.
OMG it’s been a long time since I posted this topic so I lost hope about someone clearing my doubts but here you are so THANK YOU! I had the time to rewatch the donghua but I didn’t catch the 091305 hint, I’m glad you mentioned it, I love tiny details that give this type of extra information
Oh and about your theory, you are saying that Lu Guang went inside a photo and in that timeline he went inside a photo again? And the cycle goes on until he finally saves Cheng Xiaoshi? Because if it is that what you are saying then the fact that he may never be able to come back to the original timeline HURTS I fr need them to have a happy ending
There are like 4 fans of link click so I’m sure no one will read this, but I have some doubts about season 2 ending
1. Since when can Lu Guang enter the photos? Was it explained during the donghua and I just forgot about it?
2. In the timeline where Cheng Xiaoshi dies, do we know when and how he died? Because he was wearing the jacket he used to wear in early episodes so I assume he was supposed to die a long time ago, which leads me to my next doubt…
3. If Lu Guang is changing the past by traveling through a photo then isn’t he supposed to only have 12 hours to do so? Or is that just a restriction that only Cheng Xiaoshi has? If the latter is not the case then is bro dying in 12 hours or what’s going on?
