The senior police officer Li Xin, assigned to handle the case by the Interpol liaison office, also learns that a contract killer specializing in targeting financial professionals, known as "Hornet," has infiltrated China. Dong Jie's death is somehow linked to "Hornet." During further investigation, Li Xin discovers that Zhou Fei, the CEO of Zhi Fei Trading Company, has illegally raised funds by taking advantage of state-owned enterprise reforms. With the help of Hong Kong businesspeople, he used a beauty trap to lure Dong Jie into the scheme, transferring 70 million U.S. dollars overseas, and then fleeing the country with his lover.

They go to court three times, enduring numerous twists and turns and immense personal suffering, and ultimately win the case, apprehending Zhou Fei. In this extremely complex and sharp struggle, the beautiful, intelligent, and dedicated Chinese female police officer Guo Lu tragically lies in a foreign land forever.
