Fiery Sound

Detective Lin Mo took over a bizarre murder case: a successful entrepreneur was burned alive on the top terrace of his luxury apartment. There was no accelerant or ignition device at the scene, and even the surveillance camera only captured the entire process of him suddenly spontaneously igniting, rolling in pain, and turning into charcoal, as if it was a "divine punishment" from the void. What's even more bizarre is that the autopsy showed that the deceased had suffered cardiac arrest due to extreme fear before the flames engulfed him. Is that shrill cry echoing on the terrace an auditory hallucination or a lingering curse? When the second and third similar "high-rise building burning cases" occurred one after another, the victims were all "high-ranking" figures in their respective fields. Lin Mo discovered that all the deceased had received an anonymous text message with a burning flame emoji before their death. He was forced to cooperate with Su Wan, a professor who studies folklore and the collective subconscious. They must uncover an ancient ritual hidden behind an urban legend - "Karma Fire Sacrifice" **. Someone is using the fears and sins of modern people as fuel to carry out precise "trials" one after another. And Lin Mo's past seems to be inextricably linked to this flame...
