After successfully completing a grueling mission, Jiang Zhiyan received authorization from his superiors to take a well-deserved leave. Seizing this rare opportunity, he decided to return home for a visit. Yet, upon his return, he was horrified to find that everything had changed beyond recognition.
The house he once knew felt cold and unfamiliar, as if the entire world had been turned upside down during his absence. More devastating still was the realization that the familiar faces of the Jiang and Qiu families were now nothing more than silent tombstones. This sudden tragedy struck his heart like a hammer, leaving him in agony. With the perpetrators still at large, Jiang Zhiyan resolved to uncover the truth at any cost and seek justice for his fallen family.
Through persistent effort, he finally uncovered key clues. A former servant of the Jiang family secretly revealed that Wang Xiao had delivered false information upon his return, driving the head of the Jiang family to despair. The head of the house decided to go abroad, only to be murdered and robbed. Furthermore, Jiang Zhiyan discovered that Wang Xiao’s parents were living remarkably well back in their hometown—a stark contrast to the general state of Beijing at the time.
