Sin Marrow

"Sin is tangible, eating it leads to immortality." Shen Mo, a former police genius, accidentally gained the power of "eating sin" due to a tragedy - he can taste the guilty memories left by criminals by touching the scene of the crime. This ability is the key to understanding the truth, and it is also a poison that corrodes the mind. In the end, he chose self-exile and ran a used bookstore in the corner of the city, trying to hide from the past among the piles of old paper. However, the peace was broken by a series of murders. The victims were placed in the posture of martyrs in classical oil paintings. The scene was gorgeous and weird, like a sacrificial ceremony. The newly transferred female detective Lin Wan followed the clues and found the decadent Shen Mo, and was forced to form a partner with him. During the investigation, Shen Mo discovered that the murderer was not a simple perverted killer, but an ancient and dark organization - the "Taotie Division" - was involved behind it. They feed on the "Crystal of Sin" brewed from the ultimate sin in pursuit of terrifying immortality. The murderer "painter" regards Shen Mo as the only "confidant" of his bloody art, and a hunting game against him and the city quietly begins. When reason faces madness, when evidence encounters the extraordinary, Shen Mo must face the inner demons that devour him. Joining hands with Lin Wan, who insists on order, in a seven-volume intertwined puzzle, they uncover dark secrets spanning thousands of years and prevent an ultimate ritual that aims to turn the city into a hellscape.
