Synopsis

In an unexpected turn during an interrogation, Detective Cheng Bing of the Third Squad is imprisoned, and his teammates, implicated, either resign or are demoted, leading to the dissolution of the once-unified Third Squad.

After ten years behind bars, Cheng Bing regains freedom, but his faith crumbles, his passion turns to silence, and he loses everything. Meanwhile, the prime suspect, Wang Dayong, in the case remains at large. Wearing a police uniform for just one day means a lifetime of justice.

The Third Squad must make amends, unwilling to fade away in persistence. The blade unsheathes once more, and Cheng Bing, along with his brothers from the Third Squad, reunites to embark on the path of hunting down the perpetrator. In the lonely and arduous journey, they cooperate with the police to pursue the fugitive over thousands of miles, rediscovering the coordinates of life and the meaning of existence in this monk-like pilgrimage.
