Synopsis

The Mirror Blossom Case Files In Nanzhou, an ancient city with a history of a thousand years, its most refined culture is being twisted into the most intricate criminal code. Rookie police officer Chu Ran discovers that behind an unsolved case her father has investigated for twenty years lies a dark network called “Mirror Blossom,” which uses Tang poetry as its code system.

She does not walk this perilous road to the truth alone. Special Police Captain Ning Xing brings the strength of action and silent protection. Deputy Station Chief Jiang Qi uses his insight to clear the fog for her, even as he struggles with the weight of duty and emotion. Unable to suppress his growing feelings for Chu Ran, he ultimately turns his deep affection into the most complete form of protection. Xu Ziqiu, from a rival family, shows her another reflection of the Mirror Blossom world through a purity that seems utterly out of place. Their presence makes this contest more than a simple battle between good and evil. Ning Xing's love is direct and unwavering, Jiang Qi's runs deep but remains restrained, and Xu Ziqiu's very existence creates a paradox of allegiance. Chu Ran must face not only the answers to the cases, but also the complex spectrum of human nature under extreme circumstances. Only when the mirror breaks can the flower be seen. The one who chose to shatter the mirror became the moon reflected in the water. There is no need to reach for him; just remember that he once refracted light through the darkness. This is a story about crimes and codes, but also about protection, sacrifice, and love held in check. When a system commits evil in the name of poetry, and true feelings grow in the narrow space between duty and emotion,
