Hou Liangping is reborn with all his memories from his previous life. He knows that Qi Tongwei will ultimately shoot himself, and he remembers how many details in the evidence seemed off when the case was closed.
This time, he no longer fixates on "bringing down the Handa Gang." Instead, he uses an anti-corruption investigation as cover while secretly pursuing the truth behind Qi Tongwei’s case. He aims to expose the real mastermind, stop Qi Tongwei from reaching a dead end, clear him of the central charge he was framed for, and guide him back to his original ideals.
