How Many Steps Does It Take to Put an Elephant in a Fridge?

“Knowing this village as well as I do, if I wanted someone to disappear for good, I’d never bury the body somewhere people might find it.”, Li Jiangshu

“I may be mentally ill, but they really did dig up a coffin containing two bodies from a single grave. That wasn’t a hallucination.”, Li Jiangshu

Li Jiangshu is an ordinary instructor at a police academy.

A body is found buried in a remote township in Gaocheng, in a field belonging to Li Jiangshu’s family.

Was it a coincidence, or was it planned?

Li Jiangshu decides to get involved in the investigation. With no authority to enforce the law, he has to rely on people he knows to work the case.

As the investigation deepens, the truth begins to emerge.

But the clues point to suspects who are either too ill to speak or have died under bizarre circumstances.

How can he possibly solve the case? Could the killer already be dead?

Obsessed with finding the real culprit, Li Jiangshu begins to suffer from mental problems and develops a second personality.

This other personality does everything it can to stop him from solving the case.

Could the second personality be right? Will the truth only bring more pain?
