Special Investigation Unit [Criminal Investigation]

Ye Zhu is a police officer in Fenghe City who has recently experienced a mysterious resurrection, returning to life after dying under unclear circumstances. Her memories of her previous death are fragmented and inaccessible, causing her significant distress. Upon waking, she finds herself in a precarious professional position. The Fenghe Public Security Bureau is under intense pressure due to a series of four unexplained disappearances that have garnered public attention. In an attempt to resolve the case quickly, the bureau requests assistance from the Special Investigation Unit, a elite and highly efficient team directly under the Ministry of Public Security. Ye Zhu, currently on sick leave, is unceremoniously assigned as a driver for this unit by her superior, Team Leader Zhang, who views her as a burden. The head of the Special Investigation Unit, Yan Yu, is a young, handsome, and stern investigator who initially treats Ye Zhu with dismissive indifference, ordering her only to drive.

The investigation begins at an abandoned house in Wenzhuang Village, where the body of one of the missing persons has been discovered. The corpse shows signs of asphyxiation and was dumped recently. During the scene investigation, Ye Zhu notices a suspicious figure on a courtyard wall. She alerts her colleagues, and a chase ensues. Despite being assigned only to drive, Ye Zhu actively participates in the pursuit alongside Jiang Bing, a burly member of the Special Investigation Unit. They corner two suspects, Li Gaofei and Tang Qiang, who are local thieves using the abandoned house to store stolen goods. Tang Qiang attacks Ye Zhu with a shovel, striking her back with significant force. However, Ye Zhu recovers almost immediately, displaying physical resilience far beyond that of an ordinary person. She manages to subdue Tang Qiang despite her injury, shocking her colleagues with her unexpected combat ability.

As the investigation progresses, the Special Investigation Unit interrogates the suspects, revealing that they were merely petty thieves with no connection to the serial disappearances. The unit determines that the body was dumped around 4 a.m., suggesting the killer is familiar with the area. Meanwhile, Ye Zhu experiences strange flashes of memory whenever she makes physical contact with Yan Yu or other individuals. These fragments hint at the circumstances of her previous death, including faint sounds and images of falling and footsteps. She realizes that these contacts are unlocking pieces of her lost past, driving her to seek closer interaction with Yan Yu to recover more memories.

The team travels to investigate the death of a truck driver, Huang Jingguo, who died in a suspicious accident on a mountain road the previous night. The accident appears to be intentional, as the truck lost control and plunged off a cliff. At the logistics company where Huang worked, Ye Zhu encounters a distraught woman, Huang’s wife, who is causing a scene over compensation issues. During the chaos, Ye Zhu bumps into Yan Yu, triggering another vivid memory fragment. She then notices a colleague, Qian Bin, attempting to flee the premises. Ye Zhu chases him down, displaying remarkable speed and agility. Qian Bin attempts to jump into a lake to escape, but Ye Zhu grabs him by the collar, preventing his escape. The physical exertion strains her arm, but she recovers quickly again, further puzzling her teammates who observe her inexplicable resilience.

Throughout these events, the dynamic between Ye Zhu and Yan Yu shifts subtly. Yan Yu, initially dismissive, begins to notice Ye Zhu’s keen observational skills and physical capabilities. He allows her to participate in interrogations and investigations, despite the resistance from the local Special Task Force. The tension between the two police units highlights the bureaucratic challenges they face. Ye Zhu’s rebirth remains a central mystery, with her recovering memories providing clues about her past life and the nature of her resurrection. The story follows her integration into the Special Investigation Unit as they delve deeper into the serial disappearance case, uncovering connections between the victims and the suspicious accident that killed the truck driver. Ye Zhu must navigate her new role while piecing together the truth about her own death, all under the watchful and increasingly intrigued gaze of Yan Yu.
