Moving West 1937

In the autumn of 1937, more than 300 boxes of Song editions in the "Jiaziku" of the Forbidden City moved southward were lost in Luxi Town. Cultural relics commissioner Shen Yi pursued the investigation and uncovered the conspiracy of Japanese military agent Hideo Matsumoto - subcontracting cultural relics and tampering with file indexes, with the intention of making these national treasures completely impossible to verify. The Lin family murder case leads to the CCP agent Su Ling, the military traffic officer Lin Huairen, and the housekeeper Zhou Zhong who avenges his son. During the Matsumoto siege, after the mute assistant Asi blew up the bridge, Shen Yi found clues in his father's unjust case twenty years ago in the relics, pointing to the military commander Wang Shichang. From Yichang to Chongqing, Shen Yi escorted the cultural relics up the river and discovered that the sound of Matsumoto's piano concealed the secret order for explosions. On New Year's Eve, Matsumoto launched the "Scorched Earth Plan" to blow up the archives. In the bloody battle, Lao Zhao, Cui Gu, Xiao Liuzi, defected agents Lin Xiaoman and Ah Si died one after another. Shen Yi jammed the device at the last moment of the countdown, but lost all his comrades. After the war, Su Ling took over as the guardian and received broken strings from the mountains every month - that was a signal that Shen Yi was alive. As the truth about his father's old case gradually became clear, Shen Yi chose to hide in the mountains and became a "missing" person. Willow branches sprouted from the five new tombs beside the canal, and the lights in the warehouse were as bright as stars. The story uses the word "protect" as its soul, describing the tragedy of small people in troubled times who risk their lives to protect books.
