Late autumn of 1985, Hong Kong.
Real estate star Mu Suiming defeated British rival Qin Gang and won the West Kowloon project. When he returned home after the celebration party, what awaited him was a hell on earth - his gentle fiancée Yu Wanning was insulted to death by many people, and the walls were covered with Polaroid photos. Qin Gang called and mocked: "This is the price for stealing my business."
Mu Suiming held Wan Ning's body and threw himself into the sea to die. But at the moment when the waves swallowed him up, he was reborn and returned to the day before the tragedy.
On November 6, 1985, Wan Ning was still alive and Qin Gang's poisonous plan had not yet been implemented. Mu Suiming returned with bloody memories. On the surface, he was still the gentle businessman, but secretly he had laid a dragnet.
He wants to reverse his life and death within 24 hours, and fight a war without smoke in the black and white gap of Hong Kong in the 1980s: using the memory of the stock market to snipe Qin Gang's industry, going deep into the Kowloon Walled City to search for evidence, dealing with gangs and corrupt police forces, and racing against time to protect Wan Ning's safety.
But rebirth is not a master key. Every intervention triggered a new crisis. Wan Ning began to realize his "unforeseen future", and Qin Gang's revenge became even more crazy. When Mu Suiming finally brought Qin Gang to court, he discovered that the real enemy was the era itself - the madness before the British capital retreated, the shadows of the gray area of the law, and the huge network of black and white.
This is a revenge that crosses the boundary between life and death, and a direct confrontation with the dark side of Hong Kong in the 1980s. What Mu Suiming wants to save is not only Wan Ning's life, but also justice and conscience that are swept away by the tide of the times. When the tide hits the shore again, will it take away blood or rebirth?
