Gu Yan, a top criminal profiler, is betrayed and brutally murdered by the mentor he idolized, who wants to pave the way for his own son. His priceless “spirit core” is stolen, too. But he mysteriously comes back to life in the morgue and becomes bound to a “Calamity Script System.” To stay alive, he must keep creating high-stakes conflicts in the real world, from betrayals to seemingly inescapable traps. Otherwise, the System will erase him. The former “victim” becomes a cold-blooded “horror screenwriter,” returning to the killer's side and turning revenge into a perfect crime, orchestrated by him and built on the manipulation of human nature. When his killer mentor sees him back from the dead, he asks a question from the depths of his soul: “...The spirit core we cut out of that ‘corpse’... whose was it, really?” Thus begins a revenge thriller filled with human nature, conspiracies, and a bizarre return from the dead.
