He is the quarry he's pursued for three years, and his only salvation.
Shen Yu has spent three years tracking the Shadow organization. To capture its leader, Lu Yuan, he lies in wait for four hours on a rainy night.
Just as he thinks this will be a deadly showdown between hunter and prey, the man lowers his weapon at gunpoint and disappears into the rain, leaving only these words: “Next time we meet, I'll give you an answer.”
That answer is a blood feud twenty years in the making.
An anonymous file reveals the truth behind Shen Yu's father's death: the mastermind was none other than Lu Yuan's adoptive father, Feng Kangde.
One is a detective sworn to defend justice. The other is a “sinner” burdened with a devil's bloodline.
As law and personal vengeance intertwine, and a manhunt turns into an alliance, Shen Yu finally understands that Lu Yuan walks the edge of darkness not to do evil, but to drag the true devil into the light.
“Shen Yu, trust me.”
For those words, Lu Yuan stands in front of him as four guns take aim;
for those words, he grasps Shen Yu's trembling hand in a pool of blood at the docks.
The shot that went unfired that rainy night ultimately becomes a light illuminating the abyss.
“What is owed must be repaid by someone. And I want to give you a world where your name is cleared.”
