In the early years of the Republic of China, people frequently disappeared along both banks of the Lu River.
Among the missing were the sons and daughters of wealthy families as well as ordinary people.
This time, the missing person was a Japanese girl.
The Pucheng Police Bureau sent its sharpest detective, Lu Jianguo, to investigate the area around the Lu River undercover.
Just as the case was about to be solved, Japanese artillery fire ruined everything.
Many years later, the brilliant detective would repeatedly distinguish himself during a turbulent era.
