When Wu Ji, the former captain of the (fictional) Criminal Investigation Detachment of Zion City, was 29 years old, he made a mistake in a kidnapping case that led to the death of the kidnapper and the hostage, a 13-year-old girl Song Yin. Wu Ji suffered from neurotic anxiety disorder. He resigned from his post, took the detective license exam, and opened a detective agency - Wu Ji Detective Agency. If you fight against a dragon, you will become a dragon yourself; if you stare into the abyss for a long time, the abyss will stare back.
