Nightmare

In the fifteenth year of the Republic of China, the warlords in the north and south were separated, and the various forces fought openly and secretly. Qingshi Town is located in a no-nonsense zone. It is calm on the surface, but secretly it is a passage for killers from all walks of life. Lin Yuan, the former deputy captain of the guard of a northern warlord, was expelled from the team for refusing to carry out an assassination mission. He lived in Qingshi Town and worked as a waiter in a teahouse. He originally wanted to live a stable life anonymously, but he discovered that murders occurred one after another in the town - a grain merchant in the east of the town, a pawnshop owner in the west of the town, a ship owner on the dock... In just one month, six prestigious people were killed one after another. The people in the town thought it was an accident, but Lin Yuan could see from the wounds that these people were killed by professional killers. What made Lin Yuan even more uneasy was that he recognized one of the killing methods, which was a unique skill of his former guard. Someone wants to be silenced. And he is the next target.
