Lin Yuan’s journey from a grassroots police station to becoming a criminal investigation elite at the provincial department. When he first entered the police force, his keen eye helped him solve a missing-parcel case, and he went undercover at a night market to catch a habitual thief. After transferring to the county criminal investigation squad, he faced a family massacre and a highway pileup conspiracy, painstakingly piecing together the truth from nail clippings, skin flakes, and marks on brake pads. At the city bureau, he pursued a human trafficking ring across national borders, uncovered the pattern behind a string of dismemberment cases, and risked his life in battles with hackers and drug lords. After being promoted to the provincial department, he coordinated major cases across the province, dismantled telecom fraud networks, and thwarted terrorist attacks, combining modern technology with traditional investigative methods to tear away layers of criminal deception.
Over ten years in criminal investigation, Lin Yuan grew from a rookie into a steady leader, from working alone to commanding a team of thousands. Through blood and fire, he forged a detective’s faith: the truth will never be silenced. With a gritty, realistic style, this novel portrays professional methods such as DNA matching and criminal geographic profiling, while weaving in struggles of conscience and the bonds between teammates to tell a stirring tale of modern detectives.
