Ling Mo, the chief medical examiner of the apocalypse, turned into a "corpse" on the ancient autopsy table when he opened his eyes. Faced with the hasty conclusion that her husband "died by drowning," she sat up on the spot and used irrefutable evidence such as blunt force trauma to the skull and corneal turbidity to overturn the conclusion and point to the truth of the murder. When the whole hall was horrified, the son of a demoted general had his sword on his neck: "If I can't produce any evidence, you are the murderer!"
Armed with hard-core knowledge of modern forensic medicine, she worked step by step in the ancient times when men and women were strictly guarded and cases were determined based on guesswork. She uses corpse spots as a pen and bones as evidence to decipher the secret of the mysterious poison in the case of a ghostly married woman, the secret language of bones in the academy wall, the surgical trick of the painted-skinned killer, the smuggling network used to transport floating corpses, and the mysterious identity scam of face-changing.
Ah Man, a powerful and kind-hearted man from Yizhuang, works for her, a talented young man from a wealthy family worships her as his teacher, and Prince Jing, who is in charge of the Ministry of Punishment, goes from disdain to adoration and becomes her most solid support. And the highly intelligent serial killer "Thousand-Faced Fox" is closing in on her step by step, plunging her into extreme games.
Use science to break superstition, and use truth to resist power. This modern forensic doctor dressed as a corpse will eventually split the darkness in the ancient fog, become the spark of civilization in charge of justice, and compose a legend of powerful alliances and passionate resolution of cases.
