There was no moon that night and the stars were so dim. When a person is in such a dark night, it becomes dark night. --Chi Zijian
Lu Jing, an unknown citizen, only learned last month that he had an aunt who died in a place called Li Town, which has been closed off for decades and has lagged far behind the outside world. It is called a "ruined Taoyuan" by the world.
The road conditions could not overcome his father's persistence, so he went to the town with his friend Xiao Qiyuan, whom he did not know very well, to investigate matters that the outside world did not want to interfere with. As the investigation deepened, Lu found that all the clues were inseparable from the "Snowman" legend decades ago.
The grandfather of fellow traveler Xiao Qiyuan was unexpectedly involved in the legend, and the Bai family where he lived seemed to be hiding something.
The connection between the legend and the murder case has made everything that has been covered up in the past decades become confusing. Lu Jing gradually understands the complex truth through a step-by-step unexpected investigation.
But is the reality really what he sees?
The direction is reversed, focusing on the plot, and the emotional line is hidden in the text, which requires a slightly better eyesight.
