Chen Mo, a socially anxious insurance agent who only wants to be invisible, has one main goal in life: to avoid all social interaction. But while investigating the disappearance of a pet lizard, he accidentally captures a murder on his phone, and his life spirals completely out of control. After a series of "bizarre" evasive maneuvers in front of the camera, his goofy childhood friend edits the footage into a video called "Socially Anxious Genius Solves Crimes Online." He goes viral overnight!
From then on, murder cases come one after another. A passionate policewoman considers him her prime suspect, his has-been influencer friend treats him as a surefire source of views, and everyone in the city watches him solve crimes in scenes so awkward they could make you want to dig out a whole three-bedroom apartment.
But Chen Mo has a secret: his extraordinary powers of observation let him see every detail others overlook. His deeper fear is that every mystery he solves seems to have already been written into a script by a mastermind known as the "Director."
Is he a genius who keeps stumbling into the right answers, or a pawn in someone's carefully laid game, soon to be sacrificed?
When a socially anxious man is forced into the spotlight, a deadly game that begins in absurdity and ends in truth unfolds. All he can do is use his "disastrous" social skills to unravel the most dangerous conspiracy in the city.
