Shadows of the City: While dissecting a serial murder victim, forensic pathologist Jiang Linchuan discovers abnormal DNA. The finding leads to a twenty-year-old case involving missing anatomical specimens from a medical school, and the investigation implicates Changming Group, one of the country’s leading biotech companies.
Maze of Memories: As the investigation proceeds, Jiang Linchuan’s implanted false memories begin to crumble. His true identity points to a top medical student whose life was stolen and replaced, while the serial killer turns out to be his twin brother, who disappeared during their youth.
The Genetic Trap: The case leads straight to illegal gene-editing technology. The missing specimens were actually subjects in genetic modification experiments, and Jiang Linchuan and the killer are both samples of modified “perfect humans.” The two sides clash in a fight to the death at the abyss of technological ethics.
