Jack has a private detective agency and is ambitious.
Jack received a case one day, a woman calling herself Mrs. Murray asked him to investigate his husband, Mr. Murray's extramarital affairs. Jack accepts the case.
Mr. Murray, the head of the water bureau, argued at a meeting about building the dam, but received no more support. Soon, Jack took pictures of Mr. Murray having an affair. The photo is published, and the real Mrs Murray asks Jack to stop the investigation. A few days later, Mr. Murray was murdered.
Jack decides the truth. The more Jack investigates, the more alarmed, everything seems to be related to the lack of water in Los Angeles and the construction of dams. Someone in the upper classes manipulated it all and Mr Murray became their obstacle, so he was murdered.
Jack found Mrs. Murray, looking for more evidence, indeed the truth became clearer. An obscene past incident also surfaced. Mrs. Murray was the woman of Cross, a wealthy businessman who had worked with Mr. Murray. Cross raped his daughter, who Mrs Murray gave birth to, named Catherine. Mr. Murray was drowned by Cross in his own pond and then dumped.
Finally, Mrs. Murray fled to Mexico with Catherine. However, Cross chased after Chinatown, and the police chased after him. The police are Cross's lackeys. Mrs. Murray is accidentally killed by the police captain, and Cross has Catherine again. Once again, power and money dominate in Chinatown.
