Description:
In the Shanghai International Settlement, baffling murders occur one after another. Before the case of death by lightning strike could be solved, a mysterious man, having been assassinated, wrote two horizontal strokes with his own blood and died in the police station. The case was baffling, public pressure mounted, and Inspector Chen was ordered to investigate. Besides Inspector Chen, it was his son Chen Tian-Sheng who took an interest in the case. Tian-Sheng had studied in Germany and, after returning home, worked as a translator at the police station. Show more
While examining the body of the lightning-strike victim, Tian-Sheng noticed something from a scorched scrap of clothing on the deceased and a damaged photograph taken from his pocket. With the damaged photograph in hand, father and son sought out Professor Luo, a professor of archaeology, and learned from him that the text on the stone stele in the photo's background was Mongolian, meaning "Ordained by Heaven, may he be long-lived and prosperous." Tombs blessed by this incantation generally belonged to Mongol khans.
Back from Professor Luo's home, father and son Chen became convinced that the two baffling murders were connected to the Imperial Seal of Qin Shi Huang. Thus, they also reached a consensus that the two victims were two of the five tomb robbers in the photograph. On a second visit to Professor Luo, Inspector Chen dug up the name of a tomb robber called "Bearded Wang," and the observant Tian-Sheng seemed to gain other findings as well.
The whole settlement searched for "Bearded Wang," only to find a dismembered corpse in his lair. Faced with the bloody and brutal scene, the behavior of Professor Luo's beloved daughter Luo Pei-Qi, who had rushed over with Tian-Sheng, left him somewhat pensive. Of the five tomb robbers in the photograph, three had died one after another; apart from Bearded Wang, whose whereabouts were still unknown, the fifth, wrapped tightly in a black veil, remained a mystery.
Professor Luo was in a hurry to go to America to treat his leg ailment. At the dock of their farewell, the mysterious assassin disguised by Tian-Sheng exposed the feigning Professor Luo. Professor Luo and his daughter were immediately detained. In the Luo family apartment, amid two gunshots, Professor Luo and Bearded Wang, who had sneaked into the house, fell in a pool of blood. To exonerate his son's girlfriend Luo Pei-Qi from the crime of killing in self-defense, Inspector Chen deliberately leaked information to the media, rallying public support, and Luo Pei-Qi was acquitted and released.
Professor Luo and Bearded Wang died by violence, and the Imperial Seal's whereabouts were unknown. On the day of Professor Luo's burial, Tian-Sheng, in the solemn crowd, shockingly pointed out that the Imperial Seal was in Professor Luo's coffin. The custom of letting the dead rest in peace ultimately did not stop Tian-Sheng's stubborn insistence on opening the coffin for inspection. Before ironclad facts, the mysteries of Luo Pei-Qi robbing tombs on behalf of her father and enduring humiliation to protect the national treasure were unraveled one by one. Good and evil have their rewards, true love is silent, and outside the cold iron bars is Tian-Sheng's bitter, devoted love as he waits for Pei-Qi.
