I Analyzed a Case, and Now the Police Want Me for Tea?

A woman's body by the lake tears open the long-buried memories of Tianhai City's residents. The "Bloodletting Butcher" case from fifteen years ago still casts a shadow over the city.

Now, with this woman's body turning up, people can't help but wonder: has the long-vanished "Bloodletting Butcher" struck again?

Lin Xuan, a student at Tianhai University, has an exceptional sensitivity to information. He quickly notices details everyone else has overlooked and deduces that there is a second body. The police take notice and invite him to join the special task force.

But this is only the beginning for him.

Standing atop the mountain, Lin Xuan gazes down at the city submerged in night.

In the endless darkness, specks of light glimmer. They are not the lamps of countless homes.

They are the fires of crime, burning in the depths of human nature.

Driven by desire, those souls search for a way out in the darkness, unaware that they are already trapped within it.
