Every June 1st, fireworks and laughter fill the world.
But for Jiang Lin, this day was never a birthday, but a recurring bloody sacrifice.
At the age of five, a thunderous drug crackdown destroyed the underground drug network and planted a curse that lasted for many years. From now on, every sixty-one years old, there must be one life to pay tribute to the collapsed poison chain.
His father died during the arrest mission, his mother died on the way to find out the truth, and the innocent brother, who was only a remnant of the Jiang family, was ruthlessly killed on the rooftop on his birthday.
Fifteen-year-old Jiang Lin hid in the shadows and witnessed the coming of hell with his own eyes, becoming the only witness to the massacre.
Nightmares follow him like a shadow, and PTSD gnaws at his flesh and blood. He hides all the bloody truth and pretends to be a fragile and ignorant heroic orphan.
At the age of eighteen, he stepped into the police academy, wearing a police badge, determined to tear apart the layers of covered files and cut off this endless cycle of death.
An old friend who had been away for many years has returned again, also wearing a police uniform. He is the only ray of light left in his devastated life.
It's just that the fire is burning, not necessarily all is salvation.
It's midsummer in June, and everything has already burned to embers.
From beginning to end, it was a dead game with no winner.
Motto: After darkness there may not always be light
