About This Novel

Lu Chenzhou&Su Qingyue In Tianjin and Hong Kong, which are shrouded in continuous rain, heavy industrial smoke and moisture interweave into an airtight net, hiding numerous secret crimes under the ordinary market. Criminal Investigation Detachment Captain Lu Chenzhou comes from a police family, and his father died in the shadow of an unsolved case. He is silent and cold-hearted, believes in evidence and logic, and is a "criminal-solving machine" that only recognizes physical evidence in a closed loop. Nervous headaches gnaw at him day and night, but he is forced to be meticulous and decisive that is almost paranoid. Until Su Qingyue, a criminal psychology consultant specially hired by the provincial department, appeared, the principles he adhered to began to waver. Su Qingyue suffers from a rare hypersensitivity to smell, which allows her to dissect people's hearts from the smell: the sweetness of lies, the sourness of fear, the chemical residue of murderous intent, thousands of smells weave into the thread of truth in her nasal cavity. But this talent is also a shackle. The overload of her senses makes her cold and withdrawn. She builds a high wall with masks and data to isolate herself from the troubles of the world. A serial murder case broke the dead silence in Tianjin and Hong Kong. The scene was strange and the clues were scattered. Lu Chenzhou's hard-core criminal investigation collides with Su Qingyue's scent profile, and cold evidence and human analysis are sharp edges for each other. They tracked the real murderer in the maze of lies and faced darkness at the edge of the abyss of human nature. Behind the case, there were actually hidden secrets that had been unsolved for many years. The rain has not stopped, and evil is lurking. When logic hits people's hearts, when evidence meets smell, they can only work together to tear apart the fog, speak out for the dead and find a path for justice in this humid city.
