Butterfly Shadow

蝶影

In November 1937, Shanghai fell under the control of the Japanese army led by Wei Dahong and Lin Qiuyan. The clandestine party organization shifted to underground work. In 1941, the Japanese army secretly launched the 'Popular Beauty Plan' in Shanghai, aiming to use 'counterfeit notes' to disrupt China's financial market and exploit the chance to loot China's precious cultural artifacts. The party action group, led by Wei Dahong and Lin Qiuyan, acted covertly and along the way, they met Tang Twenty-Three, a heavyset man, a lanky monkey, and other young individuals.
