He Zuo, the leader of the city bureau's action team, is a notoriously vicious tongue-in-cheek person who handles cases vigorously and resolutely, but accidentally hits the wall in the dead end of "procedural justice"; Su Qingyan, a trace inspection expert airborne from the provincial department, has a pair of eyes to detect thousands of clues, but insists on grasping the gray scale of human nature.
With a transfer order, the two became partners and formed a serious crime team, from the case of the skeleton in the welfare home that had been left in dust for ten years, to the case of the anchor falling from a building with traffic, to the case of the murder of an old criminal policeman involving two generations - every case is intricately intertwined, and every suspect has his or her own agenda. No one knows how many sanctimonious masks are hidden behind the truth.
He Zuo said: "If the chain of evidence is broken, let someone pry open your mouth."
Su Qingyan replied: "People's hearts are broken, and nothing can be used to pry them open."

They walked forward on corpses, peeling cocoons and pulling silk threads in the mist, and finally understood——
There is never a black and white truth in this world, there are only two people who refuse to admit defeat.
Purpose: Deconstruct the black and white concept of justice and face the complexity of human nature and truth.
