Hanlan Crime Record

The rain in Linyuan cannot wash away the blood under this city. Since 26 years ago, eleven women have been murdered in the northern suburbs of Linyuan and the neighboring city's Gangwan District. The methods were similar but the murders remain unsolved. They are known as the unsolved cases of the century. The emergence of a parallel case brought the dust-laden files to light. Jing Xing, the chief criminal investigation consultant, wrote the word "restart" on the title page, thus unveiling a shocking hunt that spanned hundreds of cases and lasted for thirty-six months. From murders, fraud, and trafficking, to drugs, explosions, and high-IQ social experimental crimes, behind every seemingly isolated crime, there is an identical circular indentation embedded in it. The venomous technical detective Su Ji's creed is that data doesn't lie, but people do; prosecutor Cui Lan, who is obsessed with procedures, sets up defenses step by step; and behind the scenes, Yan Qingci, who only left his handwriting but no trace of his identity, is wiping his fingertips with a silk handkerchief and calmly watching the chess game he has set up himself. Old inspection materials are time capsules, and the silent scene can speak. When Jing Xing discovers that his opponent is not a person, but a network - what he wants to dismantle is no longer just a case, but a crack in an era. The truth may be late, but never absent.
