Lin Xiaonao, a former criminal investigation technical assistant who transformed into an adventure anchor, unexpectedly received millions of anonymous investments and started the "Haunted House Challenge" live broadcast. The first stop was at the private residence of the Republic of China Watch Factory. She encountered the strange legend of "pendulum blood earrings", but because of her instinctive panic reaction in front of the camera, the audience ridiculed her that "emojis are scarier than ghosts". The mysterious investor Shen Yan intervened strongly on the grounds of "supervising assets" and formed a temporary team with operation Wen Ruan and technical master Lin Yu.
As the exploration progresses, dungeons such as the "Red Sweater" in the family building in the 1980s, the "Countdown to the Infusion Tube" in the abandoned hospital, and the "Bronze Mirror Ghost" in the old house in the ancient town are successively unlocked. Behind every haunted house, there is an unsolved unsolved murder case; and the scattered symbols such as "clock scale" and "lotus pattern" can be spliced together into a treasure map of the mysterious smuggling organization of the Republic of China. Lin Xiaonao used criminal investigation logic to dismantle the "supernatural illusion", while Shen Yan gradually revealed the true purpose of tracing family secrets. The four of them went from testing each other to solving the problem side by side, and finally discovered that all "haunted house legends" were a fig leaf used by smuggling gangs to cover up their crimes. As the truth gradually emerges, new clues continue to emerge. A criminal investigation spanning the Republic of China and modern times continues to be continued amidst the laughter and exclamations in the live broadcast room.
