In Haizhou City, many seemingly unrelated and bizarre cases occurred one after another. The victim in each case received an anonymous letter before his death. The letter was concise and clear: "You are next." The case not only left the police helpless, but also plunged the entire city into panic. The police were unable to find the connection behind the case until psychology expert Yang Junjie intervened in the investigation.
Yang Junjie is the top criminal psychologist in China. However, this case was different. Yang Junjie realized that each victim seemed to hide an unspeakable secret - they had made regrettable decisions at some point in the past, and these decisions were revealed in an extremely cruel way before their death.
Yang Junjie speculates that the murderer is not a simple criminal, but an avenger deeply driven by past trauma. Through precise psychological manipulation, he allows each victim to re-examine his past and crimes when facing death. And every time the murderer makes a choice, it seems to be to make these people experience unbearable guilt and eventually die in fear.
As he gets deeper and deeper, he gradually realizes that there seems to be some unspeakable connection between himself and the murderer. It turns out that Yang Junjie had made some unspeakable mistakes in the past, and these mistakes may be the reason why the murderer chose him.
