Synopsis

[Mystery + Criminal Investigation + Dark + Horror + Human Nature + Crime]

Not long after joining the criminal investigation team as a trainee officer, Fan Xing gets involved in the investigation of a fall-from-a-building case in Hancheng.

The female victim had clearly been tortured before her death. Fan Xing also finds a silver pendant in her mouth: it's the very coming-of-age gift his father meant to give him before disappearing ten years ago.

As Fan Xing and the others delve deeper into the case, the tangled powers at work throughout Hancheng all begin to surface. Some are willing to risk their lives to uncover the truth, while others will do anything to keep their secrets. An unseen hand repeatedly obstructs the investigation, slowing its progress.

Worse still, before one case can be solved, even stranger cases begin happening one after another. A mysterious organization starts to emerge, but what are its goals? And who is the mastermind behind it all?

As the veil of mystery is gradually lifted, Fan Xing finally discovers that his father's disappearance ten years ago is connected to an even greater secret. He and his friends must fight with everything they have to bring the criminals still at large to justice and secure long-overdue justice for the dead.
