During the Anti-Japanese War, Shanghai became an espionage arena with undercurrents from all sides. Lu Mingchuan was ordered to lurk between the Japanese and the Nationalist Government, collecting intelligence while protecting secret communication lines. By chance, he met Shen Yunxi, a calm and wise underground party intelligence agent. The two were of equal strength and frequently clashed but unexpectedly cooperated. In a whirlpool where it is difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, and between truth and falsehood, all the characters are fighting wits and courage in a sea of espionage, sometimes full of laughter, and sometimes their lives are hanging by a thread. In the end, under Miyamoto Ichiro's serial conspiracy, Lu Mingchuan must resolve the deadlock, not only to protect his relatives and friends, but also to complete the mission of saving the country. The three volumes continuously describe the adventure, humor and humanity in the crisis, until the truth emerges at dawn, and write about the courage and watchfulness in the shadow of the times.
