A family melodrama wrapped in suspense, the crime story is not very complicated, with several twists, not too many surprises, and not too elaborate design. Under such plainness, there is a deep exhaustion and distress. The interpersonal relationship in the small town is a net, and the people trapped in it involve each other and spill the pain of life on each other. Extramarital affairs, incest, murder, drugs, captivity, suicide, alcoholism, the family is no longer a warm harbor, but a breeding ground for evil, and the reconciliation between the individual and the self and the family seems to be a luxury. The younger generation, a symbol of hope, is deeply troubled by drugs, and everyone is hurt by it, but it exists so grandly in every room, like a ghost spying on this small town. With the imprisonment of a young man and the departure of a young man, the heroine in the play has reconciled with herself, but the people outside the play are deeply exhausted.
