In 1942, the War of Resistance against Japan had reached a very difficult stalemate. Japanese planes had been crazily bombing Chongqing, the temporary capital of the Nationalist government, for the fourth year. General Ninjirō Okamura, recently awarded by the Emperor, unexpectedly learned of a secret that could easily destroy the Nationalist government and had developed a detailed plan codenamed "Apollo" based on this intelligence. Moreover, Okamura personally selected a special operations team, codenamed "Sakura Group," to carry out this plan. The "Sakura Group" was the elite special operations team of the Japanese army. Its members included four young and beautiful girls: Guang, Mingzi, Miya, and A, along with a group leader always veiled in a black scarf—"Sakura One": Ai Fujiwara, who also had another identity as the Emperor's younger sister! The mission of the Sakura Group was to infiltrate the ancient temple "Huayan Temple" in the suburbs of Chongqing to steal its treasured scripture, the "Golden Scripture on Palm Leaves." One day in 1942, in the office of the Military Intelligence Bureau in Chongqing, the director Dai Li looked at a recently intercepted secret Japanese telegram and, for some unknown reason, sensed that a violent storm was about to erupt around him! On that day, the Japanese planes suddenly deviated from the usual bombing pattern of Chongqing's urban area and instead dropped bombs around the first ancient temple of southwestern Chongqing, "Huayan Temple." Amid the panicking crowd, a gracefully dressed middle-aged lady shouted repeatedly, "Don't run around, lie down quickly!" and shielded a child with her body, just as a bomb exploded nearby. This lady was rescued by Master Huikong, the abbot. It turned out that she was the widow of General Xie Wangdong, a Northeast army leader resisting the Japanese, who had fled from the Northeast and was now living at the foot of the mountain, working for the temple doing laundry and chores in the household of the Liu family, who often assisted the temple. Mrs. Xie declined Master Huikong's kind offer to stay in the temple for recuperation and returned to the Liu family's home at the mountain's foot with her maid, Xiaofeng. The unusual bombing by the Japanese raised alarm at "Huayan Temple," and Master Huikong suspected that the Japanese intended to steal the treasured scripture, the "Golden Scripture on Palm Leaves," and advised his disciples Zhao Yunlong and Zhiqing to be on high alert. Dai Li came to Huayan Temple to convey Chiang Kai-shek's intention to hold a "National Defense and Disaster Relief Dharma Assembly" at Huayan Temple on the day of Guanyin's birth, to which Master Huikong agreed. One night deep into the night, Yunlong and Zhiqing caught a thief stealing in the Great Hero Hall. Upon interrogation, the thief surprisingly claimed he came to steal the "Golden Scripture on Palm Leaves." After learning that the scripture was not lost, Master Huikong chose to let the thief go to avoid further trouble. However, as soon as the thief left the mountain gate, he was killed by a man in black.
