Forensic Doctor: Finding the Way Back to the Mystery of Ancient Realms

It was dark outside the Fenghua Theater in S City. The lights of the police car broke the silence of the night, interweaving with the pale stage lights inside the theater to form a strange picture. Xu Youran and Situ Han stood outside the cordon, their eyes deep, as if they could penetrate all the fog.

Xu Youran put on gloves and slowly walked into the theater, taking every step with extreme caution. She first walked around the stage, carefully observing the distribution of blood on the ground and the location of the body. Suddenly, she squatted down and picked up a tiny black feather from an inconspicuous corner.

"Situ, look at this." Xu Youran handed the feather to Situ Han, frowning, "This feather looks unusual, different from ordinary bird feathers."

Situ Han took the feather, observed it carefully, and nodded, "Indeed, it looks more like a part of some bird totem. We need to investigate whether there is such a totem belief or organization in S City."

Then, the two conducted a meticulous investigation of every corner of the theater, from the stage curtains to the seats in the auditorium, and even the dressing rooms and dressing rooms backstage, leaving no clues. In a corner of the dressing room, Xu Youran found a tattered diary with a worn cover, but it contained some seemingly irrelevant but thought-provoking content.

"These diaries seem to be written by a theater actor. They mention the 'Shadow Society' and some mysterious rituals." Xu Youran handed the diary to Situ Han, with a thoughtful gleam in his eyes.

Situ Han quickly flipped through the diary, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter: "It seems that our previous speculation was correct. The 'Shadow Society' is indeed inextricably linked to these cases."

With the help of the police, Xu Youran and Situ Han found the victim's family. An elderly woman, with tears in her eyes, clutched an old handkerchief in both hands, which was her daughter's favorite item when she was alive.

"My daughter...how could she have suffered such a disaster!" The old woman burst into tears. "She is just an ordinary theater actress and has never offended anyone."

Xu Youran patted the old woman's back gently and said softly, "We will do our best to find out the truth and seek justice for your daughter."

Afterwards, Xu Youran began to ask the old woman about her daughter. The old woman mentioned that her daughter had been acting mysterious recently, often coming home late at night, and always with an inexplicable fear.

"Did she mention the 'Shadow Society' or some mysterious organization?" Xu Youran was quick to capture key information.

The old woman was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly: "It seems that once, she was drunk and accidentally said a few words about the 'Shadow Society', but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time."

Based on the clues provided by the victim's family and the results of the on-site investigation, Xu Youran and Situ Han began to track down possible suspects. They first locked on the beggar who often wandered around the theater, but unfortunately, when they found the beggar, he had become another cold corpse.

"This is not a coincidence. Someone is deliberately cleaning up the clues." Situ said coldly, "We must speed up, otherwise more innocent people will be harmed."

During the pursuit, they encountered many obstacles and dangers. Several times, they were almost followed and attacked by unidentified people, but with their extraordinary wisdom and courage, they managed to escape danger one by one.

During a late night infiltration operation, they accidentally discovered a secret passage hidden under the theater. At the end of the passage was a dim room filled with various strange instruments and books, and the air was filled with a familiar fragrance.

"This is their base!" Xu Youran whispered, with a determined light flashing in his eyes, "We must destroy it!"

However, just as they were about to take action, a cold voice suddenly sounded: "Want to destroy our base? You are too naive!"

As the voice fell, a figure in a black robe slowly walked out of the darkness. The man's face was old and twisted, and there was a crazy light in his eyes. He was the mastermind behind the "Shadow Society" - an avenger who had survived the S City massacre during the Republic of China period.

"You...you are the murderer of that family massacre?" Situ Han asked in shock.

The man in black robe sneered: "Yes, I am the victim forgotten by your so-called justice. Today, I want everyone to know that I am back! I will use their blood to commemorate my deceased relatives!"

Facing the crazy man in black robes, Xu Youran and Situ Han did not back down. They knew that only by uncovering the truth could they completely stop this revenge atrocity.

In a thrilling contest, they finally subdued the man in black. However, at the moment when the man in black was taken to the police car, he suddenly sneered: "Do you think this is the end? No! The real secret has just begun..."

With the arrest of the man in black, the dismemberment case in the theater in City S seemed to have come to an end for the time being, but Xu Youran and Situ Han were filled with uneasiness. They knew that the words of the man in black foreshadowed the coming of a more complicated and dangerous situation.

In the interrogation room, the man in black robes said nothing, but his eyes revealed a deep determination, as if there was a bigger secret hidden behind him. Xu Youran and Situ Han decided to continue digging deeper to uncover the intricate web behind the "Shadow Society" and even the entire S City.

They began to investigate all the people and things related to the black-robed man, from his past to his present, without missing any clues. In the process, they found that the black-robed man was not fighting alone, but there was a huge organization behind him. This organization not only involved every corner of S City, but also had a close connection with the family extermination case during the Republic of China.

"We must find the core of this organization and destroy it completely." Situ Han said firmly.

Xu Youran nodded, determination flashing in her eyes. "Also, we need to find out what the connection is between these cases. Why are each of them seemingly independent yet closely connected?"

As the two were investigating intensively, an unexpected news came - the most prestigious theater in City S was about to hold a grand performance, and the protagonist of this performance was the daughter of the theater owner, a talented young actress.

"This performance may be the key to solving all the mysteries." Xu Youran keenly sensed something. "We should pay close attention to this performance. Maybe we will gain something unexpected."

On the night of the performance, the theater was brightly lit and bustling with people. Xu Youran and Situ Han hid in the crowd, quietly observing everything around them. As the performance progressed, their hearts became more and more tense. Suddenly, a shocking scene occurred on the stage - the heroine suddenly fell to the ground during the performance and was unconscious.

"It's her!" Xu Youran immediately recognized the heroine lying on the ground as one of the victims they had investigated before. She quickly rushed to the stage and sent the heroine to the hospital with Situ Han.

In the hospital, after the doctor's emergency treatment, the heroine finally woke up. Her eyes were full of fear and confusion, and she intermittently narrated everything she had experienced recently - she found herself involved in a mysterious organization and forced to participate in a series of strange activities, and this performance was part of the organization's elaborate plan.

"They... they want to use me..." The heroine's voice trembled, "They said that as long as I complete this performance, I can reveal a shocking secret..."
