Late at night, Lin Jianguo receives an extortion call demanding 1.19 million in ransom. The caller claims to have kidnapped his daughter. Since he only has a son, he hangs up, treating it as fraud. The next day, the police show up; a victim is found in an abandoned warehouse in the southern part of the city, and his call log and perfunctory response instantly make him a major suspect. The victim's mother insists he is the child's biological father, public opinion and rumors press down on him, his company nears suspension, and his family is implicated.
