Poor man Zhang Ziqi sneaked into a luxurious house, trying to steal something expensive
to buy his ailing mother some medicine. He discovered a body by accident, and was
accused of murder by Mrs Shen, the mistress of the house. He fled home and saw that
his mother had died. His girlfriend Huang Xiaoping asked him to hide in the countryside
and promised to investigate into the case.
Huang rented a room at Mrs Shen's house and tried to make friends with her. There were rumours that the house was haunted, and Huang had seen Mrs Shen often sneaking out of the house after midnight. Huang was increasingly curious about Mrs Shen, who seemed to be deliberately hiding something from the others. |
It was later discovered that Mrs Shen, whose real name was Li Meiying, was forced to
marry Shen Shijun after the mysterious deaths of her parents. One day when Shen was
drunk, he told Li that he had paid a gangster to kill her parents so that he could grab her
as his woman. Furious and sorrow-stricken, Li stabbed her husband to death and later
killed the gangster. Li told Huang about the whole story and then confessed to the police.
