[Period setting + transmigration + forensic science + crime solving]
In the blink of an eye, she transmigrates from a modern forensic examiner into an abandoned wife in a water town in 1982.
The times are backward and people are treacherous, but the truth will never be obscured.
Li Yanqiu, a top forensic examiner at the provincial public security department, wakes up as the much-despised “barren” wife of Qingxi County. Her body, which had been thrown into the river, has barely gone cold when her vicious mother-in-law blocks the door, demanding that she divorce and get out.
Everyone thinks she is a timid, helpless vine, and waits to see her meet a miserable end.
Then a warehouse administrator in the factory district mysteriously falls to his death. Everyone is certain it was an accident, but she points to the mud marks on his soles and shocks the crowd: “He didn’t slip. This was murder!”
Watch a modern forensic examiner solve cases with “folk methods”:
· No reagents? Wood ash and soapy water can reveal fingerprints!
· No equipment? Examine fibers under a kerosene lamp and distill samples in an iron pot to test for poison!
· Blocked by a society ruled by personal connections? She uses evidence to tear open clan secrets and logic to pry open the iron gates of officialdom!
As one cold case after another is solved, she moves from a tiny factory district onto the county stage, rising from an abandoned wife scorned by everyone to a “master detective consultant” specially appointed by the county public security bureau.
But while solving the mystery of her original body’s death, she discovers that the truth behind her transmigration is closely tied to a smuggling case spanning time and space... Why does the seemingly simple-minded cousin from a distant branch of the family always have a murderous look in his eyes? And what world-shaking secret is hidden in the “blue medicine bottle” mentioned in her late mother’s diary?
