"How do you see me as a person?"

This line appeared for the first time when the police officer Huang tested Chen Yongren, and the young and energetic boy played tricks on the officer.

By the second appearance, the teenager had become unshaven. He threw the same question to Li Xiner, a psychiatrist, with anticipation in his eyes. Did he want to know if Li Xiner liked him? No, at least not only. Because his next sentence was "A good guy or a bad guy?"

Although he has always chosen to be a good person, he is also afraid, afraid that only he knows that he is a good person. Three years, three years and three years, the days in the dark are endless.

At the end of the movie, the camera goes back to many years ago. The teenager walked out of the gate of the police academy, turned around and strode forward.
