Independent journalist Xie Jingchun accidentally gets caught up in a murder case. The person in charge of it turns out to be the ex-boyfriend who dumped her in college...
When they meet again, Hang Zhijing looks at the name she has signed on the statement and smiles coolly, enunciating each word: "Xie Jingchun?"
Xie Jingchun looks away, yet answers with a bold air: "Who else? Isn't it clear up there?"
Later, a twist of fate brings them together to solve several cases. Then a fire reduces everything to ruins, and outside the blaze, Hang Zhijing chokes out, "I need to go in. The person I love is in there."
He thinks nothing else matters, as long as she is still alive.
One afternoon, Hang Zhijing asks Xie Jingchun, "Why did you become a journalist?"
"I want to give the public the truth, and to ease victims' regrets as much as I can... What about you? Why did you become a police officer?"
"So fewer people have to live with regrets they had no choice about."
A mystery and detective anthology.
The heroine is strong, and so is the hero. No delicate, helpless beauties here, only souls that refuse to give up.
Happy ending.

Mo Zui first meets Ji Fenghe on a sandstorm day.
She's counting coins in a shabby little shop when he finds her and asks her to venture deep into Lop Nur to save his fiancée.
Mo Zui isn't keen on getting involved, but he offers a huge reward.
In that case, she'll just have to "reluctantly" take the job.
Before they set off, she looks through the rescue information and finds a line in the details about Ji Fenghe's fiancée: came to Lop Nur with her boyfriend to explore.
Hmm... Wait?
Fiancée? Boyfriend?
Ji Fenghe's fiancée went exploring in the uninhabited region with her boyfriend, but that boyfriend isn't Ji Fenghe.
This guy isn't here to rescue his fiancée at all. He's here to use the grassland on his head to improve the ecology of the desert and the Gobi!
[Plot Synopsis]
Wang Chang'an grew up listening to a story about the Jiya Tribe.
In the story, the Jiya Tribe lived in Lop Nur a thousand years ago. Its people feared neither the scorching sun nor drought, and built a civilization of their own.
A century ago, the Jiya people left Lop Nur, leaving their civilization and secrets forever buried in the sand.
When Wang Chang'an was twenty-two, her parents died mysteriously. Only when her grandmother gave her final instructions on her deathbed did Wang Chang'an understand that the story was more than a story.
She traveled far to the northwest under an assumed name, becoming Mo Zui, the owner of a small inn, in hopes of finding the Jiya ruins, breaking the curse, and discovering how to stay alive.

"Case Files of Huajing", Historical, anthology, mystery and investigation, two strong leads, happy ending
Theme: Tear away the curtain concealing evil.
In the end, the heroine found out that it was Zhong Mi who killed her two best friends, and that Changfeng even died for her. Zhong Mi also arranged to kill the heroine, so that the heroine could still give Zhong Mi water in the end. I can't understand how she treated her so calmly.
It's still a bit heavy, maybe because I don't want the heroine to lose her relatives and friends, but the investigation is still quite interesting [like]
It's been a long time since I've read such an appetizing criminal investigation story. I finished reading it in one day. The heroine's two friends died so unjustly... The murderer is just like the heroine in White Night Walk. I can't get a trace of sympathy in my eyes... Finally, I want to say that I really like the emotional line!
What does the last thing in the first case mean? Why does the sister hate her brother? Was the sister also involved in the murder?
I don't understand why Zhong Mi wants to kill Gu An.
God this is so vicious. . .
Otherwise, let me take this job. I don't want to go to work.
I have finished reading it. Although it is very short, it is very interesting. Each case has its sad points 😭 Jiang Han who worked hard but was deceived by a scumbag for half his life, Su Muqiu who died with him for his daughter in the end, Chang An who was born unfortunate but is still kind and hopes to be redeemed, and the children who were abducted in the last case, etc. 😭 I can only say that human nature is really complicated, and I really like the characters created by the author! Thank you to the author for bringing great works! But there is a problem. Damn, there are a lot of typos in the article [covering face and laughing]
Qin didn't react when Sheng said he hired a murderer. Later, he acted as if he hadn't heard the words, which was a bit strange.
I've never seen that kind of lock before.
