Synopsis and Plot Summary
It follows a prosecutor who has made countless sacrifices in the past ten years to find the truth about a case.
Upon discovering the wrongdoings of a criminal organization, schoolteacher Hou Guiping (Chen Siyu) stands up to them to protect his female students but dies in vain. His girlfriend Li Jing (Tan Zhuo) seeks the help of her old classmate Jiang Yang (Bai Yu).
In his youth, Jiang Yang was bright, sunny and righteous. He once served as a prosecutor at Pingkang County Procuratorate. Jiang Yang takes Hou Guiping's case yet his investigation spans a decade. Ten years later, Jiang Yang has fallen ill as he works with Li Jing, Zhang Chao (Ning Li) and the others on the subway corpse dumping case.
The case falls in the hands of major crimes deputy leader Yan Liang (Liao Fan). His style may be unconventional, but he has a keen insight on the smallest of details. The suspect killed and discarded the body but was arrested on the spot with at least a few hundred witnesses. Furthermore, the suspect confessed his crime and all the evidence matches up. Just as the prosecution has officially filed charges, circumstances begin to change. Upon receiving the '9-photo' letters, the truth about ten years ago rises to the surface.
