The Reverse Butterfly on the Autopsy Table

A Butterfly Breaks Free of Its Cocoon, and at Last Finds Home

"Reverse Butterfly" refers to the inverted butterflies the killer carves into the spine of each corpse, symbols of souls that failed to break free of their cocoons. On the wrist of Fan Jinci, chief medical examiner, is an identical scar.

Yu Yan, a pampered, obsessive, and arrogant captain of the criminal investigation team x Fan Jinci, a detached, aloof chief medical examiner with a brilliant mind who acts as if nothing concerns him.

Yu Yan (captain of the criminal investigation team) x Fan Jinci (chief medical examiner)

In the shadows of a city of steel and concrete, Captain Yu Yan and Chief Medical Examiner Fan Jinci use blood as ink, weaving a web of twisted desire between scalpels and gun barrels.

On the surface, they are a well-matched duo solving a series of murders. In truth, they are trapped beasts bound by genetic chains, and Fan Jinci bears a butterfly-shaped scar on his wrist.

When Captain Yu Yan investigates a professional dismemberment case, he is forced to turn to the genius medical examiner Fan Jinci for help.

Arrogant Fan Jinci is irritable and sharp-tongued due to severe insomnia, yet displays astonishing expertise. The butterfly scar on his wrist reveals his dark past. The two develop a relationship beyond their professional roles amid life-and-death crises. So this is what lies behind the chief medical examiner...
