Zuo Jie, a mystery novel enthusiast, never imagined that one day she would become a criminal suspect herself.
Economic crimes, tax evasion, and failure to pay taxes: her unscrupulous boss threw a lowly accountant like her under the bus.
Fortunately, she made sure to document her work at every step and had plenty of evidence in hand. The court soon ruled her "not guilty."
Free and clear of all charges, she had just walked out of the courthouse when her vision went dark and she found herself in another space.
Inside a cramped room, blood covered the floor. Three members of a family lay dead, their bodies cut into more than a hundred pieces. The family's pet dog was happily devouring them.
She had entered a horror scenario, one whose events were based on real-life cases.
An experienced veteran told her that everyone dragged into these scenarios was guilty, and this was the punishment they deserved.
One baffling murder after another, one case after another riddled with suspicious details.
Twelve guilty people, seventy-two hours to find the real culprit behind the case, or they would vanish without a trace on the spot.
Zuo Jie: ???
What was she guilty of???
She'd been framed!!!

Heaven has no eyes, wronging an innocent and decent person like her. Zuo Jie is furious, but can only accept reality.
Soon, she discovers that she seems to have a remarkable talent for solving cases. Years of reading mystery novels have made her as skilled as a veteran.
She tracks down the real culprits hiding in the shadows, one by one.
Cold cases are solved, and the wronged dead are finally given peace.
Her outstanding performance gradually attracts attention from all sides, including that of her charming, beautiful roommate, Qin Jingzhi, the captain of the city's criminal investigation squad.
One night, Qin Jingzhi quietly sits at her bedside. When Zuo Jie turns over and wakes with a start, Qin gazes at her meaningfully.
"You seem to have quite a few secrets."
Qin Jingzhi says this to her in a tone that sounds suspiciously like a confession.
Zuo Jie: "..."
If being framed can count as a secret,
then she has a world-shaking secret.
