1983, during the Strike Hard campaign.

On his first day officially reporting for duty, Zhao Guodong meets a cultivator in the boiler room who claims to have lived for four hundred years.

A snake coils around a female worker’s neck. Handcuffs fly off on their own. A Type 54 pistol is knocked aside.

Zhao Guodong doesn’t panic. He pulls the trigger, only to find his right hand burning strangely hot. The old gun, retired from the criminal investigation squad, is pouring something into his body.

Three days later, two men in Zhongshan suits arrive from the provincial government and flash a red official seal:

“Special Case Investigation Bureau.”

They say, “Zhao Guodong, we’re taking away the person you arrested. And you’re coming with us.”

This is a story about a police officer solving cases.

Except the cases aren’t from the human world.
