The Only Specimen

In his first week at the municipal funeral home, trainee forensic doctor Lin Ye received a special corpse - the number "001" was engraved on the inside of the deceased's left wrist. A piece of tissue was missing near the heart, and the edges of the wound were as smooth as cutting with precision instruments. What's even weirder is that in the funeral home archives, the autopsy report corresponding to "001" only has a blank cover, and all electronic records show "insufficient permissions." As the corpses "002" and "003" appeared one after another, each with a unique number and the same traces of missing heart tissue, Lin Ye discovered that these deceased people were related to an unsolved "specimen theft case" ten years ago. When he tried to investigate further, his colleagues suddenly disappeared, his home was broken into, and clue files on his computer disappeared mysteriously. Even the veteran detective of the police station warned him to "stop investigating, life is more important than the truth." Lin Ye gradually realized that what he was tracking was not a serial murderer, but a crazy plan to try to turn "unique" people into "specimens", and he himself might have been listed as the next number.
