Death Code: The Judge’s Corpse-Talking Game

The whole city is gripped by terror! The serial killer codenamed “The Judge” has struck again! He kills only evildoers beyond the reach of the law. Every murder is a flawless work of art, leaving behind an unsolvable “death cipher” and openly taunting the city’s entire police force! The police form a task force, only to be led around in circles and pushed to the brink. In their moment of despair, the municipal bureau calls in a mysterious consultant: Gu Chen. He is an heir to an undertaker family with eight generations of history, and runs a barely surviving antiques shop. The fiery policewoman Lin Rui slams the table. “What kind of time is this to believe in superstition?” But when Gu Chen identifies the victim’s height, weight, profession, and even what they ate last night, using nothing but a skeleton and taking just three minutes, the room falls silent! Lin Rui: !!! And that’s not all! Pointing to a faint engraving on a bone, Gu Chen says coldly, “This isn’t showing off. It’s a cipher. He’s telling us who the next victim will be...” Everyone’s scalp goes numb! And so begins an extreme battle of wits and wills! The Judge’s ciphers grow stranger with every murder, and each crime scene is more bizarre than the last! He seems like a ghost, everywhere at once, constantly watching the task force’s every move! As one cold case after another is solved, a shocking conspiracy that has lurked in the shadows for twenty years gradually comes to light. It turns out The Judge’s target was us all along! When the price of the truth is death, do you still dare to crack the code?
