In the late spring of 2005, Binhai City was shrouded in mist of cherry blossoms and ginkgo trees.
Xu Jiawen, a criminal detective who has just joined the job, takes over a bizarre poisoning case. All the evidence points to Song Jinshi, an upstart entrepreneur - a second-generation official who is comfortable in politics and business, but a man who wipes the lens of an antique camera alone in a late-night coffee shop.
When Xu Jiawen approached the Song Group Building in the name of collecting evidence, she accidentally bumped into Song Jinshi burning sketches in the studio on the top floor. The facial features of the person in the painting are strikingly similar to hers, but among the ashes emerged fragments of the identity card of a female reporter who disappeared three years ago. What's even more bizarre is that each victim's cell phone contains encrypted piano score fragments of "The Rite of Spring", and half of the yellowed music score is imprisoned in the underground piano room of the Song family's old house.
In the process of tracing a transnational money laundering network, Xu Jiawen discovered the scars under Song Jinshi's suits and leather shoes: a childhood used by his powerful father as a bargaining chip, monitoring loopholes at the scene of his mother's "accidental" fall into the sea, and the antique clock in his office that was always fixed on March 27 - the anniversary of Xu Jiawen's mother's death in the line of duty.
When the poisonous coffee appeared on Xu Jiawen's desk again, Song Jinshi suddenly grabbed the cup and drank it all. Before falling into coma with a high fever, he wrote the password to the bank safe on her palm, which contained a chain of evidence that could bring down the entire interest group. In the cherry blossom rain, two young people with the scars of the times finally saw clearly that the so-called coincidence was the echo of the gears of the unsolved case that had been unsolved for twenty years.
In this dangerous dance in the name of justice, they are both the other party's last witnesses and the light that penetrates the fog of lies.
Concept: When the rusty truth awakens in the frozen soil of late spring, the two light chasers who are reflections of each other finally understand that justice is the night cherry blossoming in the depths of sin. They use the warm bond of mutual redemption for twenty years as nourishment to let the pure white ideal wrapped in courage and hope bloom brilliantly on the edge of the black and white chaotic cliff.
