When detective Chen Mo was investigating a series of bizarre murders, he discovered that all the clues pointed to a darknet platform called "Perfect Crime Strategy". The platform founder "Midas" took pleasure in trading perfect criminal plans. What shocked Chen Mo even more was that his sister Chen Xi's "suicide" five years ago was inextricably linked to the platform.
As the investigation deepened, Chen Mo was forced to form a team with the mysterious hacker Lin Qian and the psychologist Qin Feng, but they fell into suspicion of a traitor. Under the serial interception of core killers such as "Scavenger", "Reaper" and "Red Bird", he discovered that there was a more terrifying truth hidden behind his sister's death - an extremist organization called "Wheatfield" that aimed to "purify the world", and his sister was actually the "first ray of dawn" for its ideals.
When Chen Mo accidentally obtained the status of "Guardian of the Rye Field" and had to make a cruel choice between protecting criminals and betraying his colleagues, he gradually approached the terrifying core of "Dawn Project" and reached the edge of the cliff of human nature and faith.
