After dying, genius criminal Lin Ye is reborn as Su Qingyuan, the beauty of the police academy. The System gives him an ultimatum: identify her killer within seven days, or all five people who were reborn will be erased.
The four others reborn alongside him each have a special talent: Chen Feng, a world champion in martial arts; Gu Yan, a master of criminal psychology; Zhao Kai, a memory competition champion; and Zhou Xiao, an ordinary girl with incredible luck. Forced to work as a team, the five use the abilities they had in their previous lives to solve cases and survive in this world.
Lin Ye uses a criminal's mindset to reason backward, Gu Yan reads people's minds, Zhao Kai never forgets what he sees, Chen Feng clears the way with his fists, and Zhou Xiao stumbles into one lucky break after another. Amid the comedy and thrilling action, they crack one bizarre case after another, only to discover that all the clues point to a criminal empire called the Five Pillars. The players are Shen Yuan, the strategist; Ma Honggang, the Iron Fist; Liu Ruyan, the Mirror Master; Sun Zhe, the dark web's master; and Qi Tianle, the lucky koi. Each controls a domain, pulling the strings in the city's underworld.
The truth is even more brutal: their rebirths were themselves an experiment conducted by the Five Pillars. The System collapses, trust breaks down, and enemies from their past lives emerge one by one. Each of them must face their fate and use the light of this life to redeem the darkness of the last.
