My family has been coroners for generations, but by mine, only two daughters remain.

A string of major cases has erupted in Kaifeng Prefecture, and all the victims are nobles and officials.

On the chest of the latest headless corpse, several small words were carved in blood-

“Qi Yan, twenty days remain.”

The killer specifically demanded that the newly appointed Deputy Minister of the Court of Judicial Review investigate.

If the case is not solved within the deadline, the seventh victim will be Qi Yan himself.

I assist with the investigation, so busy I barely touch the ground, yet the busier I get, the more terrified I become.

The wounds on the dead are exactly in the style of my missing elder sister.

Before she disappeared, my sister once said:

“A-Zi, one day, you will die by my hand.”
