Shen Yunxi, a female detective in the Republic of China, has the ability to "recover images" - touching specific objects can see the remaining spiritual images, but each use will cost the life force, and can only read the memory of the last ten minutes of the deceased's life. She is forced to cooperate with the old police chief of Jindu Town who rejects new learning. She deals with the decadent squire family, the mysterious concession forces and the seemingly innocent mayor. She uses her unstable "scientific psychic" ability to uncover a perfect crime that spans twenty years and involves the grudges of two generations.
