In the twenty-fifth year of the Republic of China, a storm of cultural relic looting quietly broke out across China, Japan, and Germany.
Treasures from the Forbidden City are stolen. Shen Yanzhi, a member of the mysterious organization "Ikaruga", and Lin Ruo'an, a member of the mysterious organization, embark on a cross-border treasure hunt. From the Nine Dragon Wall of the Forbidden City in Peking to the British Museum in London, from the Berlin Archives to the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo, they engage in a desperate game with Japanese military spies, Nazi forces, and double agents.
The phoenix jade pendant hides secrets, the baby's birthmark is actually the unlocking key, and the imperial mausoleum blood jade is related to the rocket conspiracy...
When the snake-shaped tattoo inside the "turtle dove" gradually emerged, and when the Zhao Lifu brothers' double-sided chess game unfolded layer by layer, Shen Yanzhi discovered that this bloody guardianship across the Three Kingdoms had already laid the foundation for an interlocking game.
Behind the cultural relics is the survival of civilization, deep in the jade pendant are family secrets, and the baby whose life experience is a mystery may be the last piece of the puzzle to reveal all the truth. When the bells of the Yasukuni Shrine ring, can they keep the fire of civilization in the flames of war?
