In Beiping in 1936, the winds carried danger, and the snow fell heavy. The people of the city kept their heads bowed beneath the weight of it all.
An old case buried for more than a decade, the Jiang Shoucheng treason case, began to stir quietly on a winter night.
Newspaper editor Shen Yanqiu received an anonymous letter containing nothing but a string of top-secret numbers. It was like someone striking a match in the darkness, forcing him to look deeper.
Soldier Lu Chengyu heard a suppressed order at the military justice department and realized that the old case had never truly ended. Something he was never meant to know was hidden within the system he served.
And Jiang Huiqin, daughter of the "traitor" at the heart of the case, began to wonder, after receiving a slip of paper so thin it was almost translucent, whether the shame she had borne for more than a decade was built on a lie.
The three of them met amid the rumors, unaware that the same hand was pushing them toward the center of fate.
With the appearance of a torn fragment from a file, the first crack appeared in the truth:
Jiang Shoucheng might not be dead.
The winds rose, the old case came back to life, and the hidden darkness stirred.
The more Shen Yanqiu tried to stay away, the closer he was pushed to the truth;
The more Lu Chengyu tried to protect others, the more he realized he was on the wrong side;
The more Jiang Huiqin tried to retreat, the more she understood that she had to step into the storm.
What they didn't know was this:
The true winds weren't blowing in from outside. They surged up from the depths of fate.
Theme: The winds may press down on the city, but the human spirit will not yield. The truth will be seen at last.
