Plot Summary

As Qin Feng (Haoran Liu) touched down in New York City, he was instantly captivated by a shocking twist - what he believed to be his uncle Tang Ren’s (Wang Baoqiang) wedding was, in fact, a clever facade. This ruse was designed to ensnare Qin Feng in a tangled web of mystery, setting the stage for a gripping challenge involving the world’s most talented detectives. The powerful godfather of Chinatown, Uncle Qi ([Kenneth Tsang]), had summoned a squad of elite online investigators from the renowned Crimaster app, and tantalizingly offered a five-million-dollar jackpot for anyone who could crack the case surrounding the murder of his grandson Jason. The nightmarish scene of Jason’s corpse, found in a temple with his heart ripped out and an eerie symbol inscribed nearby, only deepened the intrigue surrounding the investigation.

Little did Qin Feng realize; he was stepping into a perilous game of cat and mouse that would push even seasoned detectives to their limits. The situation grew more sinister with the emergence of another murder—a brutal case involving a white woman whose kidney had been removed. This horrifying act drove Qin Feng and his partner, who was recognized as the world’s third-best detective, to meticulously analyze the evidence surrounding both crimes. A crucial piece of video footage appeared to pinpoint Song Yi (Yang Xiao) as a suspect, having been glimpsed at both crime scenes. However, Qin Feng noticed discrepancies that indicated Song Yi, being right-handed, could not be responsible for the left-handed nature of the slayings.

As the narrative unfolded, suspicions began to solidify around Song Yi’s culpability. However, both Qin Feng and Tang Ren understood the urgency of acting quickly to clear her name and unearth the real perpetrator. Tang Ren’s profound expertise in Feng Shui and Wu Xing was indispensable as they pieced together the puzzle of cryptic clues linking the murders. The specific locations of each crime scene, the timing of the attacks, and the birthdays of the victims all bore significant relevance. Merging their insights with an analysis of the organs that were extracted, Qin Feng theorized that New York City was becoming a colossal altar, with elements such as fire, water, wood, metal, and earth forming the basis of a sinister ritual.

As the investigation advanced, Qin Feng’s outstanding detective instincts unveiled a shocking motivation behind the murders. A doctor, in a desperate fight against his own terminal cancer, had developed an obsession with the idea that ancient Taoist rituals could bestow upon him eternal life. The gruesome murders were simply a means to his twisted end, seeking to harvest organs and tap into the very essence of the city to fulfill his dark ambitions. In a final act of desperation, this doctor took his own life once his heinous schemes became exposed.

With each layer peeled back, Qin Feng stumbled upon a mind-boggling revelation: the elusive figure known only as “Q”, celebrated as the unmatched detective from the Crimaster elite agency, was in fact Song Yi. This brilliant tactician had swiftly cracked the case while cleverly employing the doctor’s methods to mask his own hidden motives. It turned out that Song Yi had deliberately taken matters into his own hands, ruthlessly eliminating a notorious sex trafficking kingpin responsible for his sister’s abduction. Ultimately, despite Qin Feng’s choice to release Song Yi from captivity, subsequent forensic tests conducted by Kiko raised critical questions about her exact whereabouts, suggesting that “Q“‘s digital footprint did not trace back to America. This revelation cast a long shadow of doubt over Song Yi’s innocence, leaving the enigmatic “Q” as an enduring specter looming over the case.
