Forensic toxicology expert Chu Yuheng has a rare talent for capturing subtle physiological characteristics - he can detect abnormal pupil contraction, irregular venous pulses, and microscopic tremors of muscle fibers that ordinary people ignore. These eyes, which can see through life and death, saw the unexplainable truth during a bizarre autopsy.
On the autopsy table, a deceased person whose heart had stopped beating for two hours suddenly showed weak electrical activity; inside the body of the deceased, there was a thin fluorescent blue line and a micron-level letter code hidden inside. When the second and third bodies appeared in the same mysterious way, Chu Yuheng realized that this was not just a serial murder case, but a carefully planned medical experiment.
As the investigation deepened, he pointed the finger at his father Chu Jianguo, the legendary surgeon who "died" due to an experimental accident five years ago. His father's dying prophecy began to come true: "The ultimate boundary of medicine lies in the ability to control the process of death." Chu Yuheng was shocked to discover that his father had faked his death and set up a biotechnology company to secretly implement an "artificial death procedure" through Renxin Clinic - using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology to achieve precise control of the death process of specific groups of people.
From the dissecting table to the laboratory, from the secret room of the clinic to the genetic technology empire, Chu Yuheng must use up his lifelong learning to start the ultimate confrontation with the opponent he once admired and now must end with his own hands at the edge of morality and science. This game about life and death, humanity and ethics, science and madness has just begun.
