The burglar who broke into the house never expected that the family of four living there had long been dead inside. Paradoxically, the young pregnant woman found dead in the bathroom was not the family's daughter; she shared no blood relation with the other three! Meanwhile, the body of the missing daughter eventually surfaced in a septic tank twenty kilometers away...

A foul-smelling murder house, a woman choked to death by filth-clogged mouth, white bones in a cage entwined with crayfish... The torrential rain seventeen years ago had quietly brewed a bone-chilling murderous intent. The layers of resentment being peeled away are intertwined with Han Liang's past and haunt the hearts of every witness. They were once forgotten; they should not be forgotten.

So, among those who "buried them alive," are you one of them?

**Prologue**
She lay beneath the shower curtain; between her legs, a green mass of flesh the size of a fist was slowly writhing...

**Case 1: The Woman Under the Bed**
Beneath the bed of a deceased man lay the blackened corpse of a woman. Could this be the legendary "Back-to-Back" case?

**Case 2: The Non-existent Guest**
A hotel guest accidentally dropped his phone into the gap behind the toilet cistern. As he reached in to retrieve it, he found his hand smeared with fresh blood...

**Case 3: The Buttock Print in the Woods**
The male corpse found in the small grove had his underwear pulled down to his ankles. The surrounding fallen leaves and soil were piled in a peculiar way, forming what appeared to be an eerie buttock print.

**Case 4: Beneath the Hemline**
A high school girl heading home after late-night tutoring sessions never finished her usual five-minute walk, even after two hours had passed... Where did the bloodstains on her skirt come from?

**Case 5: Death of a Shut-in**
Did he really die suddenly from an all-night gaming marathon? When the forensic pathologist opened the skull—which showed no external trauma—they discovered a fracture inside the brain. Could this be... an "indirect blow"?

**Case 6: The Maggot-Infested Hot Spring**
As a drone soared over the hot spring, the operator noticed the water's color seemed abnormal. As the camera zoomed in, the strange object soaking in the spring became increasingly clear...

**Case 7: The Unsinkable Corpse**
A naked female corpse floated in the reservoir, her long hair spreading across the surface, bobbing with the waves. Terrifyingly, her abdomen was riddled with a dense cluster of puncture wounds...

**Case 8: The Baby in the Water Vat**
The mother held the limp infant in her arms, her head bowed and her eyes vacant. The baby’s eyes were slightly open, and foam remained around its mouth, yet it never uttered a single sound.

**Case 9: The Ripped-Open Mother**
Her top had been pushed up to just below her breasts, and her abdomen was sliced wide open. Her internal organs looked as if they had been stirred... On the coffee table beside the body sat a half-peeled apple.

**Case 10: A Sudden Bolt of Thunder**
With a deafening crack of thunder, someone at the wedding feast collapsed. As the rain poured down, the crowd scattered like startled animals; no one noticed that the person never stood up again.

**Epilogue: The Forgotten**
The man, suffering from syphilis, bared his scorched-yellow teeth and lunged fiercely to bite Chen Shiyu’s wrist.
