The century-old theater troupe "Mingchun Club" hides unknown secrets. Li Dahai, the top martial artist, suddenly collapsed on the stage during the curtain call of the finale of "The Pulley", with his usual gun stuck in his heart. The doors and windows of the scene were locked, and there were only three actors backstage. However, the cinnabar marks on the costumes were exactly the same as those in the sudden death of the class leader twenty years ago.
Zhang Xiaoyu, a new apprentice in the industry, always hears singing from the empty stage late at night. The tune is very similar to the famous actress Zhao Lihua who was rumored to have committed suicide due to loss of her voice. She secretly checked the dusty theater troupe's account books and found that every bizarre expenditure pointed to an old play that was banned - "Lin Suo".
What's even weirder is that after Li Dahai's death, his costumes were always worn away at midnight, and he would repeat his pre-death figure in an empty theater. When Zhang Xiaoyu followed the code in the play and found the brocade bag embroidered with unicorn, what fell out of the brocade bag was actually the silver hairpin that Zhao Lihua was wearing when she disappeared twenty years ago.
