A killer who can create the perfect crime must also be the strongest ace detective. Su Ming, who had just passed the police academy entrance exam, unexpectedly gained the ability to simulate crimes in his dreams. Each time he simulated the perfect crime and no one discovered the murderer during the statute of limitations, he would gain various skills used in the crime. After simulating the perfect crime 100,000 times, he acquired countless skills. Su Ming, who should have become the number one criminal, instead joined the criminal investigation team after graduation. To him, all cases seemed like child’s play, full of mistakes.
