Inspector Chen, lying low after a corrupt investigation that could have tainted him badly politically, has taken on part-time college studies. But when a young girl is found murdered wearing only a torn red mandarin dress, followed by another girl wearing a similar dress, the possibility of a serial killer in Shanghai lures Chen back to work. Struggling with a breakdown under the combined pressure of his academic deadlines and the case, he must try to stop the killer under the most unexpected circumstances.
