After Grandma’s passing, the family gathers for the inheritance division. Chen Wangxi only receives an old wooden chest. When she opens it, she finds it filled with piles of gold and silver treasures. Her uncles and other relatives instantly burn with envy. The fake Grandma proposes a hide-and-seek game to redistribute the assets, volunteering to be the seeker. As the game begins, relatives one after another suffer eerie, horrifying incidents. Wangxi and her younger brother narrowly escape and hide for their lives.
As the story unfolds, the shocking truth comes to light. The woman posing as Grandma is Liu Chunxi. She teamed up with Wangxi’s long-missing elder brother to orchestrate the whole trap. Years ago, the eldest and second uncles poisoned Grandma and murdered Wangxi’s elder brother in cold blood, all to seize the family fortune. Afraid of leaving evidence, they forged the old lady’s will and spread rumors that the elder brother had run away from home. Liu Chunxi and the missing brother spent years planning this scheme, using the treasure in the wooden box to lure the greedy relatives into the hide-and-seek game.
The terrifying events during the game are carefully staged. The uncles’ fear and guilty consciences make them crack under pressure. Their panicked confessions are secretly recorded. Once sufficient evidence is secured, the police are alerted. Cornered, the two uncles can no longer deny their crimes. Along with their accomplices, they are arrested.
Justice is finally served. The stolen family property is recovered and returned to Wangxi and her brother. Wangxi and her younger brother survive the nightmare. The truth shocks the entire clan. The siblings get back what belongs to them. They lay the real grandma to rest properly. Free from the shadow of vicious relatives, they start a peaceful new life.
