A rising actress who had just won a major film festival award plunged to her death. Was it an accident? Murder? Or suicide? There wasn't enough evidence, so the truth remained unclear. But all kinds of scandals connected to the actress kept coming to light.
When Liu Yishou, a crooked-smile comic extra, saw the shocking news on his phone, he hid in the restroom between takes and wept as he recalled the hard years he had spent working alongside the famous star, as well as the warm memories of his secret crush on her.
Faced with the devastating news that his fellow townswoman and famous star had met with disaster, Liu Yishou remembered all the ways she had helped him before and after she became famous. He secretly vowed to find out what had happened to this great benefactor and get to the bottom of the scandals surrounding her.
So he swallowed his pride and put up with every indignity, matching wits with all sorts of oddballs in the cutthroat world of film crews as he searched for clues.
Even at the risk of being fired and blacklisted, he helped the police solve the case and unmask the person behind the leaks and sensationalist stories about the actress, clearing his benefactor's name. He also helped her family seek compensation, so they could find some comfort knowing she was at peace.
