The dark night in Jiangcheng was completely dyed with bloody maple leaves! There are no traces of corpses burned in secret rooms, fatal throat cuts on rainy nights, corpses hidden by dolls all over the city, and parts of corpses in cold storage are mysteriously missing... A series of perverted murders broke out one after another, leaving only strange maple leaf marks on the scene. The police investigated at all levels, but only caught the manipulated chess pieces. The mastermind behind the scenes has always been hidden in the darkness!
28-Year-old Li Shuting is the most mysterious non-staff criminal investigation consultant in Jiangcheng. The burn scar on his right face is his mark and has been his nightmare for twenty years. When he was 4 years old, there was a fire in his home and both his parents died. He was the only one who survived, but he awakened to the evil golden finger - a 1:1 realistic deduction of the crime scene, a vague description and an accurate profile portrait. The profile matches more than 90%, and all the clues are ironclad evidence!
But this talent is a devouring abyss. Every deduction is extremely mental exhaustion, haunted by hallucinations, dissociated personality, and even subconsciously imitating the murderer, staring at the darkness.
Fortunately, he has the Iron Triangle of Detectives working side by side: Criminal Investigation Captain Jiang Yi, who fights hard to overcome obstacles and is his most solid backing; Chief Examining Forensic Physician Su Wan, who traces traces to the source and unlocks the corpse language, is his light that brings light back. The three of them joined forces to use hard-core forensic autopsy, front-line criminal investigation deployment, and heaven-defying logical reasoning to tear through the layers of fog and point directly at the mysterious criminal organization "Jinshe"!
When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes back. Li Shuting steps on a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, struggling repeatedly between the light and darkness of human nature. Can he break the twenty-year mystery, destroy the Jin Society, and keep his true heart?
The bloody chess game has begun, and the ultimate game will last until death!
