During construction at a construction site on the outskirts of Linjiang City, an unknown skeleton that had been buried underground for more than ten years was unearthed. The special binding marks on the bones and a rare old injury immediately attracted the attention of forensic doctor Yue Xin. After dismantling the autopsy layer by layer, she read the death code buried by the years from the bones. The deceased was not anyone on the missing registration list.
Jiang Yan of the Crime Team took the lead in setting up a task force to trace the identity of the unknown corpse. Following the clues, an old case that had long been judged to be an accidental fire resurfaced. When the fire engulfed the entire house, everyone believed that the whole family was killed in the flames. However, the appearance of this skeleton proved that someone had been killed before the fire.
As the investigation progresses, insiders related to the old cases encounter accidents one after another, and threats and deliberate accidents follow one after another. The people behind the scenes set up a trap step by step, deliberately fabricating evidence to frame others, trying to bury the truth in the dust again. Jiang Yan traveled around and uncovered layers of lies; Yue Xin stayed in front of the autopsy table, speaking for the deceased from the bones, trace evidence, and old damaged evidence.
The two team up to solve a series of new murder cases while confronting the mastermind hiding deep in the city who holds the secrets of old cases. What makes them even more vigilant is that the murderer is very familiar with the police case handling process and even knows the internal details of the case many years ago. It is very likely that he is hiding among acquaintances related to the old case.
When all the puzzle pieces were put together, Jiang Yan and Yue Xin were shocked to realize that this belated revenge had been quietly planned as early as when the fire broke out more than ten years ago. The darkness will never completely dissipate, and those who hold the lamp will never stop pursuing the truth.
