Evidence and Truth

In the gray zone between crime and truth, some bonds are stronger than blood and tougher than steel.

Huo Sen, captain of the criminal investigation squad at the Jiangzhou Public Security Bureau, is nicknamed the "Living Yama." Tough and uncompromising, he believes a punch can solve anything, but he has one fatal weakness: he faints at the sight of fresh blood. Mo Wenyuan, the bureau's chief forensic pathologist, is known as "Old Corpse Mo." Cool-headed and sharp-tongued, he has an eye as keen as a microscope, but he's hopeless at daily life and always gets lost.

When a hot-tempered, straight-laced detective meets a fastidious, chatterbox forensic pathologist, the two should clash like fire and water. Instead, they unexpectedly spark a brotherly bond. No romance, just scalpels clashing with handcuffs; no love and longing, just calls rising and falling over the radio.

From bizarre dismemberment cases to tangled cross-province drug trafficking, from highly intelligent serial killers to undercover moles hidden deep within the police force, they spend five hundred days and nights chasing life and death, and countless sleepless nights piecing cases together. Huo Sen charges into the fray, while Mo Wenyuan teases apart the clues. One works in the open, the other in the shadows. They are each other's strongest support.

Here you'll find stomach-turning crime scenes and hilarious police squad antics; brutal truths that strike straight to the heart, and brothers standing by each other to bring warmth to the darkest moments.

This is a record of criminal investigations about trust, perseverance, and redemption.

This is a tale of two heroes, woven from passion, comedy, and tragedy.

"Captain Huo, judging by the rigor mortis, the suspect is probably left-handed."

"Shut up, Mo Wenyuan, and get me my stomach medicine first!"

Theme: The perfect balance of reason and emotion creates justice without flaws. Through the clash between a criminal investigation captain, passionate and action-oriented, and a forensic pathologist, rational, logical, and composed, the story shows that achieving justice requires both thunderous action and the scientific spirit of painstakingly unraveling clues. Neither can be missing; together, they complete the chain of fighting crime.

Brothers who light each other's way in the darkness: The story focuses on a pure male friendship that transcends blood ties and has nothing to do with romance. When confronting the darkness of human evil and the weight of life, they become each other's light and anchor. Their absolute trust, their willingness to put their backs in each other's hands and face life and death together, sustains their humanity and professional convictions in the midst of brutal work.

Using laughter to ease the weight, protecting life with one's own: Their comedic everyday interactions offer a counterpoint to the high pressure and cruelty of criminal investigations. This is more than a change of pace in the story; it is a profound attitude toward life. Even when death is a daily companion, optimism and resilience can dispel despair. Ultimately, the story is rooted in reverence for life and the will to protect it, expressing the humanistic ideal that the law may be impartial, but people have hearts.
