Dawn Behind Bars

Chen Mo is a top forensic engineering expert, but a meticulously plotted case involving stolen cultural relics lands him in prison with a ten-year sentence. Wrongly accused and behind bars, everyone thinks his life is over.

But Chen Mo is determined to find a way out, even in the depths of despair!

Faced with the prison's law of the jungle, he draws on the wisdom of his ancestor's Records of Washing Away Wrongs and his knowledge of modern science to spot the real culprit in the smallest details and unravel mysteries from the faintest clues. His ingenious methods crack one strange case after another, earning even the prison kingpin's respect.

His goofy cellmate, Zhao Xiaozhu, becomes his “ultimate support,” using his unconventional way of thinking and unrivaled network of informants to clear Chen Mo's path through one farcical predicament after another. Meanwhile, Li Jianguo, the stern yet warmhearted instructor, rekindles Chen Mo's hope that culture can reshape the soul.

Yet Chen Mo gradually discovers that the hand behind his false conviction has not given up. A shocking conspiracy to traffic national treasures and tear apart the nation's bonds is reaching its claws deep inside the prison walls...

See how Chen Mo uses the skills of Chinese tradition as his spear and righteous integrity as his shield to restore justice from behind bars!
