Jiangcheng is a city nourished by prosperity and crime at the same time.
Song Shihe, captain of the Jiangcheng Criminal Investigation Detachment, is an idealist who firmly believes that justice will eventually defeat evil. However, a seemingly ordinary murder case of a female teacher living alone dragged him into a bottomless quagmire. The scene was carefully disguised, the clues were fragmented, every suspect wore a mask, and every testimony contained lies.
Gu Mozhou, the only son of Gu Changfeng, the richest man in Jiangcheng, appears to be an elegant and mysterious vice president of the group, but in fact he is an "informant" struggling on the edge of the criminal empire built by his father. He holds countless secrets, but is caught in a dilemma between light and darkness. Seven years ago, he personally introduced Song Ji into this chess game; seven years later, he found that he had also become a chess piece.
When the corpse of the female teacher was not yet cold, the second and third corpses appeared one after another, and the deceased were all sentenced to death in the name of "trial". A transnational criminal organization called "Shadow" surfaced. It not only devoured the lives of innocent people, but also extended its tentacles to the top brass of the police station.
In the process of chasing the murderer, Song Shiji gradually discovered that the truth was far crueler than imagined: his most trusted comrade may have been betrayed long ago, and the most dangerous enemy may be right next to his pillow. And Gu Mozhou, the man he wanted to capture and save, was both the key to the mystery and the bomb that detonated everything.
This is a game about crime and punishment, and also a redemption from death.
In the baptism of blood and fire, when must Song answer the ultimate question: When darkness beyond the reach of the law shrouds everything, how should justice be carried out?
And when will Gu Mozhou be able to cross the black ink sea called "sin" and reach the other side of light?
Purpose: "When the law becomes a blind spot, what is the blade of justice? Some people stick to the bottom line of procedural justice in the dark, while some wander on the edge of crime with violence and violence - there is no standard answer to this game, but in the tempering of blood and fire, the gray folds of human nature are torn apart, and the word 'justice' is reborn in the tearing and stitching."
