After serving six years in prison for taking the blame for his cousin, Gu Yuan returns only to be called a “good-for-nothing ex-con” by his cousin’s wife.
Getting a job at the police station as an uncommissioned forensic temp only turns him into a joke for the relatives to snicker about over tea.
But with a corpse about to be cremated before him, Gu Yuan casually remarks, “The deceased died of mechanical asphyxiation. It was murder,” and shatters the city’s peace.
Bound to the [Heavenly Eye Crime-Solving System], Gu Yuan can see the deceased’s final moments.
Unsolved dismemberment cases, serial murders on rainy nights, locked-room murders in wealthy households... one seemingly hopeless case after another, left unsolved for years, is cracked beneath his scalpel!
He has exceptional people skills, and with every case he subtly passes the clues to veteran detectives without ever taking credit. The senior officers in the police force all come to treat him like their own son, fiercely having his back!
“If Gu’s ever mistreated, the entire Chengnan Precinct will stand up for him!”
While his cousin’s wife is still showing off to the relatives that she knows a deputy captain, she sees that very high-ranking deputy captain following behind a young man carrying an evidence kit, respectfully saying, “Chief Gu, the scene is yours.”
