What they face is more than a killer: it is the shadow of society itself.
A female university student drowns, and the paper lily in her hand is identical to one among Jiang Lin’s mother’s keepsakes.

Every case is a puzzle piece cast out by Mystery Net.
I have finished reading the first volume, and it feels pretty good. I like this kind of suspense theme. I hope the author can continue to update it!!
