Under the bluestone slabs of Yangzhou City, lies the secrets of the murder and water transportation ten years ago.
Xu Zhuo, a gangster, uses copper wire as a blade to wander between brothels and pawnshops. On the surface, he steals incense, steals jade, and molests embroiderers. In fact, he is tracking down the red scale tattoo on the back of the salt dealer's neck - it is the same mark as when his father sank into the river.
Su Li, the embroiderer, guarded the broken stretcher and used the "sappan wood alum water fixation method" to restore the dark patterns of the wedding dress. However, when the blood dripped on the back of Xu Zhuo's neck, she discovered that the scab marks on the back of Xu Zhuo's neck were exactly the same as the anchor pattern on his father's official uniform.
"Stealing Alley" takes the perspective of an embroiderer and a gangster in the market, sewing machinations and affection into every stitch and coil of copper wire, making every seemingly ordinary pickled plum, mending a stretch frame, and counting beads become the key to unlocking a ten-year mystery. There are no heroes here, only two little people who were riddled with holes by fate, using the dirtiest means to protect the cleanest obsessions.
Just like the broken jade with missing corners, it is precisely because of its imperfection that it can hide the "protecting the burning and protecting the pear" for a lifetime.
Concept: In the coarse salt of the pickled plums and in the stitches of the wedding dress, the ten-year Shenjiang murder case gradually emerges with the sound of shattering in the market - when the ruffian's copper wire hooks the embroiderer's stitches, the water transport secrets hidden under the bluestone will eventually be awakened by the blood and moonlight.
