Premise

The story opens with a string of serial killings whose victims, methods, and crime scenes reproduce scenes from Nekros, an underground manga drawn anonymously by a creator nicknamed Mr. Kill.² The trail leads inspector Phat (Tee Teeradech Vitheepanich), a young officer with a strong belief in rules and procedure, to Kaye (Dew Jirawat Sutivanichsak), a famous manga artist who in secret is the author of Nekros under the Mr. Kill pen name.⁸^•²

Kaye's public work is the popular romance manga Love in the Wind, and the gap between that persona and his hidden one drives the early episodes: he burns his paper copies of Nekros and scrubs it from the internet once the killings are linked to it, carries a hammer he says is for self-defense against debt collectors, and shows signs of severe anxiety and nightmares.² Phat brings him in for interrogation, then begins using his insight into the manga's patterns to anticipate the next killing, at one point cuffing their hands together so the suspect stays within reach.²

As the investigation deepens, the two men discover that their lives are tied to the same tragedy, and the series frames its climax around a choice between revenge and justice.⁶ In later episodes Kaye is heavily suspected as the serial killer and a kill order is issued, forcing him to flee to survive while Phat, the only one who never lost faith in him, works to gather evidence of his innocence and helps him during the flight.⁹ Phat eventually invites Kaye to join the investigation officially as a special consultant on the Nekros case.⁹ In the finale, Thun plans to use Praew as a tool after learning she has uncovered a truth, and Phat, worried for his sister, begs Kaye to reveal the final clue of Nekros.⁸
