Shadow Puzzle

Every deceased person is a character he carefully collected. Every scene is a stage created by him. And he was waiting for the only audience. In a rainy city, a serial killer codenamed "The Collector" is carrying out his "creation" in an extremely ritualistic way. He selected women who fit a specific aesthetic, deprived them of their lives, put them in clothes that did not belong to them, posed them in quiet and strange poses, and put a chess piece in their empty eye sockets to symbolize their "role". Lin Shu, a lonely genius in criminal psychology at the police academy, was forced to leave the mountain. He realized that this was not a simple killing, but a grand and twisted psychological drama. The murderer conveys information through the layout of the scene. He needs an audience, and even more, an "interpreter" who can understand his twisted aesthetics. The investigation leads to a thrift store called "Moran Xuan". Its owner, Chen Mo, is taciturn and spends all his time with old things that carry the memories of others. The confrontation between Fang Mu and him unfolded on a silent psychological battlefield. However, the "Collector" was superior. Not only did he gain insight into the police's actions, he also sent a direct invitation to Fang Mu - a dark game in which life was the bet. As Fang Mu tried to piece together the pieces of the truth, he realized that he was peering into an extremely lonely and dangerous soul. This chase is no longer a simple confrontation between justice and evil, but a dance between two geniuses in the shadow zone of human nature. Who is the real chess player? When the last piece of the puzzle falls into place, what kind of chilling ending will be revealed?
