The Song family has been passed down for generations to conduct forensic autopsies, clear up wrongdoings and ban violence. However, in Su Liang's generation, only his grandfather and grandson were left in the mountains to avoid disaster.
In modern times, everyone in the Su family who has encountered forensic medicine has died unexpectedly. The curse of "death after practicing the profession" has made the family unable to hold their head high. In fact, it was because they offended the evil forces a hundred years ago and were silenced and concealed for generations.
A case of corpse dumping in a mountain village forced Su Liang, who originally wanted to hide his incompetence to save his life, to reveal his family's unique autopsy skills.
He inspected corpses, identified traces of the ground, and tracked down the real culprit, but he was killed as a result. His grandfather was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and the ancestral secret book was taken away.
In order to save his relatives and redress the injustice, Su Liang stepped into the Jiangcheng Forensic Center and used ancient autopsy methods to integrate modern criminal investigation. From rural suspicious cases to urban murders, he gradually uncovered the chain of interests behind the murders.
The remnants of the evil forces that hunted the Su family back then are still there, and old cases and new hatreds are intertwined. He uses a white coat as his armor and a scalpel as his blade, following the legacy of his ancestor Song Ci, vowing to tear apart the centuries-old conspiracy, clear the wrongs, and bring justice to the world.
