His life takes a dramatic turn when a major archaeological incident occurs nearby: artifacts from the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor are reported stolen, triggering a massive city-wide police manhunt with a substantial reward.

The Fugitive's Arrival

During the chaos of the manhunt, a scarred and violent fugitive, fleeing from rival bandits, stumbles into Wang Hao's residence.
