Criminal Investigation Notes 2: Bodies Buried at Song Lake

At midnight, the police station in Songhu Town was filled with the relentless barking of Simba, the police dog. Deputy Chief Cheng Linhai woke from a dream and found a man at the station entrance, both feet crippled and his body covered in blood. He had crawled there from a grove two kilometers away. Robbers had stolen his truck, dragged him into the woods, severed the tendons in his feet, and buried him in a pit. But his desperate will to survive drove him to claw his way out and crawl all the way to the police station for help. The situation was grave. Linhai rushed to the crime scene to investigate, only to discover that this was no simple, isolated case, but part of a series of organized, premeditated robberies and murders. The robbers’ methods were brutal and practiced, and they had long since vanished. Recently transferred from the criminal investigation squad to become deputy chief of the local station, Linhai now faced the greatest challenge of his career. Watch as Linhai parts the layers of mist and sets out once more to hunt down the criminals and bandits.
