Ten Cases, One Heart

Criminal Investigation Captain Chen Mo has an unconventional approach to solving cases. Alongside meticulous evidence gathering and uncovering the truth behind crimes, he is driven to use psychological profiling to unravel the secrets hidden deep in people’s hearts. This obsession stems from an incident in his youth that he has never been able to put behind him. It has left him struggling to reconcile the choices people make, though he rarely reveals the true reason to anyone.

Nine bizarre murders occur in succession: a corporate CEO dies suddenly under suspicious circumstances, a philanthropist falls to his death from a cliff, an old secret at a construction site leads to a murder, and several deliberate killings are disguised as accidents... Though the people involved come from very different walks of life, they are all trapped by their obsessions and inner demons. Years ago, some even made their way to Meili Snow Mountain in search of redemption, yet none truly managed to cast off the shackles in their hearts.

As Chen Mo picks apart the crimes one by one and glimpses the struggles of those caught up in them, he also turns the light inward, repeatedly probing the “first case of his life” that has lain hidden in his heart for years. When he finally sets out on a journey to the snow mountains, the obsession that has haunted him for so long at last gives him a chance to make peace with himself.
