When perfect physical evidence meets a strange work of art, cracks appear for the first time in the rational world of criminal police captain Lu Hansheng. Faced with the angel statue and the perfect crime scene left by the serial killer "Sculptor", he was forced to accept the "empathizer" consultant assigned by his superiors - Gu Yunshen.
One is rigorous and rigid, following logic and evidence; the other is casual and unruly, able to touch memories and emotions. During the first confrontation in the morgue, Lu Hansheng sneered at Gu Yunshen's so-called "feeling". However, when Gu Yunshen accurately captured the murderer's "ecstasy of creation" and "metal reflection" fragmented memories from the cold evidence, and even nearly collapsed because of it, Lu Hansheng's belief began to waver.
Clues from old record stores, dusty traps in the basement, provocative letters sent directly from the murderer to the police station... On the edge of chasing the murderer, reason and intuition are forced to intertwine. Gu Yunshen dived into the abyss of memory again and again at the cost of mental overload; Lu Hansheng used his body as a shield to ward off fatal crises in the physical world. From rejection to temptation, from rift to protection, two completely different souls redeem each other on the edge of life and death.
What they face is not only the most vicious criminals, but also a huge organization hidden in the shadow of the country, as well as an unknown dimension that can swallow the soul.
Is it to accept supervision and become an "asset" that loses freedom? Or should you rise up to resist and fight a bloody path to the future for yourself and for all those with abilities on the boundary between light and shadow?
