On the eve of his execution, Jiang Li tore up the verdict in a secret prison and wrote charges of subverting justice with his bloody fingers dipped in ink. He is not a criminal, but a top defense lawyer who was buried by the system. And Shi Jin, who was once his student, is now the most cold-blooded executive of the Supreme Court. When the national public opinion boiled over "justice is dead", Jiang Li used his body as a blade and Shi Jin used authority as a shield. A trial without a trial was quietly launched in the abyss of power - not to overturn the verdict, but to burn out the entire rotten system. They are each other's swords and rusty chains, but they understand each other's darkness better than anyone else.
