1983, Liuxi Lane, Beijing. Shen Mo, who graduated from the police academy, dreamed of "catching thieves and solving crimes", but was sent to a police station that dealt with trivial matters. He was so fed up: Are you talking about the family's shortcomings? Lose your share! "I just want to do "big things."
But the "little thing" in the alley slapped him in the face. Qian Xiaoshu, a child of the Qian family in the steel mill, wears long sleeves in midsummer and has evasive eyes. She was shocked to see bamboo streaks in the bathhouse, and Shen Shen felt a shiver in his heart. Clinging to the "stealing" rumor, but uncovering the suffocating truth
Accountant Zhao, who tied up his salary bag tightly, hid his obsession with "buying a house" under old newspapers posted on the wall, which attracted a gold-toothed and shady intermediary...
Lin Meiling, who is obsessed with "Hong Kong businessmen", had a wrong pinyin on the remittance slip and tore off the painting...
The old professor who keeps the gramophone and waits for overseas phone calls, has a mountain of letters from home, and the nanny who steals medicine and hums the Pingtan at night...
The butcher shop owner's chopping of bones shocked the world, the slogan "Both boys and girls are the same" was covered with "Man can conquer nature", and the eldest daughter's schoolbag concealed abortion pills...
Seven cases, seven blackened kerosene lamps. "I don't want to do it" Shen Mo picked up the light, took the key, and opened the door. I saw the absurdity of worshiping money, the cruelty of abandonment, the loneliness of an empty nest, until the relationship was torn apart at the bedside of a terminal illness. He thought that the bright family had shortcomings. When I unearthed the dusty report letter from the pile of wood shavings, I was shocked to realize: The dim light had already revealed a New Year's Eve scam, involving lives, and even revealed the cold truth that my father had been wronged...
When the kerosene lamp illuminated Liuxi Lane, the most annoying silence of the policeman understood: guarding the fireworks here is not a trivial matter, it is a top priority. The door is open and the flames are jumping.
