    The story starts off with a bang: the romance storylines in chapters 20, 22, 27, and 31, plus the final chapter, are still fresh in my mind. A series of unsolved cases from twenty years ago plunges the entire city of Nanzhou into panic. The only clue is a "poetic murder code" that only rookie policewoman Chu Ran can decipher. The male lead's character is a direct hit to any girl's heart: Ning Xing, the captain of the Nanzhou Special Police Brigade. He's a walking embodiment of masculinity, and also the sharpest knife at the crime scene. Beneath his cold exterior lies a heart that softens for only one person. The second male lead is killing me! Jiang Qi, the head of the special task force, is calm and composed, has a fiancée, and keeps all his admiration for the female lead hidden under the case files, never revealing it. The only time he lost control was the night Chu Ran broke down. Seeing her trembling with tears, he said nothing, but simply pulled her into his arms, holding her so tightly it felt like he wanted to meld her into his very bones. That was the only time he ever hugged her. Later, he emptied the entire pack of cigarettes, burying his feelings deep within his heart before dawn. Then he sacrificed himself. One protected with fervent passion, the other with subtlety. One embraced her when she broke down, the other held her hand tightly for the rest of her life. A high-energy plot, with the emotional and criminal storylines intertwined: She is a genius psychological profiler who can see into the devil. He is a SWAT captain who walks on the edge of light and darkness, using his body as a shield. He would protect her with his life. The male leads, second male leads, and all the police officers are at the pinnacle of combat power. "I traversed all evil and darkness, not to save the world, but simply to reach your side." — Ning Xing. Suitable for someone like you: Someone who loves the thrill of mind-bending crime-solving and is moved by love that transcends life and death. Someone who yearns for a powerful partnership, a soulmate with both high intelligence and combat prowess.
