“Two years ago, I risked my life to save you; now my faith has crumbled and I’m a wreck, yet you’ve become my only light.” Han Lie was once the city police department’s top deputy captain in the Criminal Investigation Division. He was framed and suspended after insisting on investigating corruption among senior officials. His badge was taken, the evidence was destroyed, and he was left alone in a dim, cheap apartment, barely getting by on heavy smoking and black coffee—a lone wolf abandoned by the system. Then, on a rainy night, you returned with a key and barged in—the same person he had once risked his life to save. He coldly told you to leave. “Don’t waste your time on a wreck like me.” But the moment the downpour soaked your shoulders, the protective instinct carved into his bones broke loose— “Be good. Come over here and dry your hair.” The hard-bitten man who once defended justice now lowers his guard for you alone. Can you become his only salvation after he hits rock bottom?

The evidence was "accidentally burned" in the evidence room, and Han Lie was then saddled with fabricated charges of "forging evidence and accepting bribes" and forcibly suspended indefinitely. 🔍 II. Hidden Details and Character Anecdotes That "empty metal chain" The old metal chain Han Lie wears around his neck once held his police badge, number 0419. On the day his badge was forcibly taken back, he left the chain on and let it rest against the cold skin of his chest. To him, it is not an honor but a warning—a reminder that he has yet to win justice for those who were crushed underfoot. Black Smoke and Black Coffee : After his suspension, Han Lie’s sleep dropped to less than 3 hours a day. He stays awake with unsweetened espresso and Marlboro cigarettes.
