Xinzhou, the largest free port in Xinnanzhou. The 6th captain of the Special Investigation Unit (SID), which deals with violent crimes, Luo Wei-Zhao (Fu Xinbo) receives news of a murder. The victim is a young man from the countryside, and since the scene where the body was found is in an area with a high incidence of crimes such as drug trafficking and prostitution, it is suspected that the murder may be related to a previous drug case. Luo Wei-Zhao visits the scene with his subordinates and notices something strange about the body.

Bae Soo, who is familiar with criminal psychology and knows the characteristics of "zero degree empaths," analyzes the perpetrator's psychology and unravels the case. Luo Wei-chao and Bae Soo have thus come close to the heart of the case, but all of this is just the beginning of a series of murders that are about to begin...
