When He Lanzheng, captain of the criminal investigation detachment, rubbed the ring made of his lover's ashes on his left ring finger, he never thought that Song Ci, the police officer from the anti-narcotics team who "accidentally died" on his wedding day four years ago, was lurking next to him with a new identity.
After regaining consciousness, Song Ci returns with the unidentified truth from his previous life. While interning as a young newcomer Lin Shen in the anti-drug team, he secretly prevents He Lanzheng from exploring the true cause of his death - because he knows that the revenge of the drug dealers will kill He Lanzheng. Ghosts and gods are easy to distinguish, but human hearts are hard to fathom; systems can be broken, but desires are hard to satisfy. And to love to the extreme is not to be together in life and death, but to pave a way for the other person to live on a parallel line that will never recognize each other.
On this road, the ashes ring is both a tombstone and a beacon - it tells silently: some truths need to be concealed, some lies are more compassionate than the truth, and true protection sometimes means becoming the "most familiar stranger" in the other person's world. "The so-called distorted appearance of the human heart is nothing more than a camouflage of human greed and cowardice sewn into human nature." The terrifying monster is not the bloody corpse on the altar, but every "last resort" scratch made by ordinary people as they slide step by step into the abyss.
Just like what Yun Xi wrote in the autopsy report:
"Behind all acts of deliberate cruelty are the murderer's twisted psychological motivations'—and the real tragedy is that those reasons often exist."
Intention: When the sin of belief disguises itself as a god, when there is betrayal behind the light, and in the silent place of the ring, someone uses lies as a blade to carve rebirth on the altar of reincarnation - just so that you can forget my name in the sunshine.
