Beneath the neon lights of Binhai, a string of murders appears like a blood-red code. The rose tattoo on each corpse's left ribs conceals an encrypted final message from a forensic pathologist who vanished twenty years ago. The tattoo scar on Detective Captain Lu Lin's arm turns out to be a transplanted memory coordinate belonging to his father, who died in the line of duty. When the brilliant forensic pathologist Su Xun cuts open the seventh body, her scalpel suddenly unlocks a quantum key left behind by her father. A black-market organ conspiracy spanning time and space bursts open, entangled with human experimentation, memory cloning, and a plot to make the city and its inhabitants coexist as one.
