Luo Xiang, an antique broker, collects a bronze box on his behalf, but becomes involved in a fatal mystery. The trader died mysteriously, and the police named him as the murderer. Lin Yan, his brother who had disappeared for many years, suddenly appeared, with a murderous intention hidden under his gentle greetings.
