Before Gu Bei's master died, he gave him a notebook filled with unsolved cases from over the years.

When Gu Bei opened his eyes again, he found himself back in 1995. He was 23 that year and had just spent a year working in publicity for the police.

The notebook had also traveled back with him to 1995. When he opened it, he discovered that the first case had happened right near him.

Heavy rain, a reservoir, a dismembered body, missing liver and kidneys. The case was riddled with mysteries. The killer had erased every trace, and the victim's identity could not be confirmed.

There was no surveillance, no witnesses, and none of the high-tech methods available in later years.

Everything was conspiring to bury the truth beneath the earth.

But Gu Bei refused to give up. He examined every detail carefully, deduced the killer's motive, made bold hypotheses and tested them cautiously, leaving no clue untouched.

Without high-tech tools, he would rely on the old ways: pounding the pavement and searching every home and alley without missing a single one.

He would uncover the buried truth and make sure the killer was brought to justice.
