About A Pillow Case of Mystery
Sze Sai-lun becomes the new magistrate of Kong-do County. After a series of unresolved cases, the townspeople begin to see him as pathetic and useless. While Sai-lun was searching for evidence by a hillside, he accidentally injures himself, dropping blood on a mysterious pillow. He faints on it and discovers that the pillow encloses a spirit who can help him solve mysteries by giving him clues and riddles to solve. With the help of the pillow spirit, the townspeople begin to see a new light in Sai-lun.
Directed by Chi Wah Lam, A Pillow Case of Mystery leans on a strong ensemble — Bobby Au-Yeung Tsan-Wah, Kenix Kwok Ho-Ying, Annie Man Chung-Han — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about mystery titles of 2006.
