In the near future, unambitious private investigator Zhan Mingrui is hired by Hu Shan to find her missing husband, tech tycoon Yan Ke. Meanwhile, the public is boycotting the androids launched by Yan Ke's company, because androids not only look identical to humans but also replace human labor. After much effort, Zhan Mingrui finds the missing Yan Ke, who has been kidnapped and suffers from amnesia due to severe trauma. Adhering to the principle of doing good deeds to the end, Zhan Mingrui decides to help Yan Ke with psychological treatment and hopes to find clues about the kidnapper to enhance his detective career. However, as the investigation progresses, Zhan Mingrui discovers many suspicious points about Yan Ke, suggesting he might be an android. Zhan Mingrui warns Hu Shan to stay away from this "Yan Ke," but is met with Hu Shan's angry rebuke. Is this Yan Ke truly an android, and what is Hu Shan's true intention?
