Synopsis
Lu Xiao (Qin Jun Jie), a police captain who is known to be wise and calm, is confused by a strange case involving a dead body floating in a ditch in Haigang City. What’s odd is that the killer, known by the code name ‘Water Ghost’, has a powerful anti-reconnaissance ability. With this power, he has managed to escape repeatedly.
Not only that, the suspect also has a diving ability that exceeds human limits. In the investigation process carried out with his new partner, Fang Yi Tong (Li Meng), Lu Xiao even had to lose his beloved wife, Jiang Yi Ran (Huang Meng Ying).
Although he almost gave up, Lu Xiao finally managed to get out of his slump to chase after the ‘Water Ghost’ again. Relying on his strong determination, composure, intelligence, and extraordinary courage, Lu Xiao struggles to uncover who is the real vicious killer with superpowers who allegedly targets a wealthy businessman in Haigang City, Cheng Li Jun (Chen Ran), as the next victim.
