About This Novel

"The Departed: The Revenge of the Ghosts" is an urban dark style novel that combines suspense, espionage and identity myths. The story centers on a double undercover agent codenamed "Xiao Feng" (whose real name is Chen Mo\u002F Lin Xiaofeng). He is forced to lurk between the mysterious organization "Dark Night Rose" and the hostile force "Bloody Dawn". He has struggled to survive in the shadows by the Huangpu River for three years, and is already physically and mentally exhausted. At the beginning, the unexpected activation of the "Mirror Protocol" broke the surface calm: the organization informed Xiaofeng that an undercover agent who matched him with a 99.7% Match had sneaked into the "Bloody Dawn" headquarters. This news was like a boulder thrown into stagnant water, instantly triggering a fatal crisis. He soon encountered the leader in black who was "identical" to him, and both parties were told that "only one can survive with dual identities." A cruel mirror game surrounding identity, memory and survival begins. Throughout, the protagonist is suffering from an identity crisis: Is he a righteous student who graduated from the police academy? Is it the ruthless arms dealer "Xiao Feng"? Or is it a replica carefully crafted by the organization? When the past "self" becomes the enemy in front of you, when trusted companions instantly turn against you, the boundaries between morality and survival become blurred. In addition to the tense action scenes, the novel deeply explores how individuals stick to themselves and pursue the truth during the endless hell-like undercover career, and whether in the absolute darkness, the glimmer of humanity can still light up the way forward. The story ends abruptly when the protagonist and his group escape deeper into the night with serious injuries and unsolved mysteries, leaving behind the aftertaste of "The Dark Night Is Young" and the strong expectation for the final answer.
