Behind the old reform is a game of power, a carnival of interests, and a test of conscience.
Xia Gui, an ordinary community secretary, has no earth-shattering feats, but has "serving the people" engraved in his bones.
He refused a million-dollar bribe, adhered to the bottom line of urban renewal, and only wanted to let the demolished residents get the compensation they deserve, but he became a "stumbling block" in the eyes of power.
He was framed, smeared, threatened, and imprisoned. He was tortured, but he never bowed his head. Until he died unjustly, he kept shouting "I am not corrupt."
Some people follow the trend, some add insult to injury, and some remain silent. Only Xia Tie stayed anonymous for twenty years for a promise.
He started from the bottom, collected evidence bit by bit, and survived countless darkness, just to wait until the day when the truth was revealed.
When the anti-corruption sword falls and all evils come to light, those who have betrayed and harmed Xia Gui will eventually pay a heavy price!
This is not a fictional story, this is the persistence and helplessness of grassroots cadres, and the ultimate battle between justice and evil.
