Three years ago, a failed case caused the genius criminal psychologist Shen Yan to lose his voice. The hideous scar on his neck was his punishment for his own incompetence and the starting point for atonement for the rest of his life. Today, he relies on notebooks and sketchpads to communicate with the outside world, and uses breathtakingly accurate profile reports to bring criminals to justice.
Until Xie Lan appeared.
This man walked in and out of the crime scene with ease, as elegant and calm as an unsheathed knife. Every trace he left accurately pointed to Shen Yan's profiling conclusion - as if those crime scenes were exhibitions specially arranged for him.
Shen Yan thought he was chasing a crazy vigilante.
Xie Lan told him: I killed those people so that you would not have to kill them again.
When Shen Yan's profile got closer and closer to the truth, he was horrified to discover that the person who really deserved to be punished was not Xie Lan, not the murderer on the loose, but himself who stood on the river bank three years ago and watched everything happen.
And Xie Lan, this "devil" who walks on the edge of the law, was the only one who pressed his bleeding neck with his hand on that rainy night three years ago and said "don't die" over and over again.
