Love Me, If You Dare
Episode 7
Hello?
Are you serious?
I'll come to pick you up, give me 5 minutes.
Xun Ran! Xun Ran!
Why are you here? Are you on a business trip?
I transferred to the Jiangzhou police force.
- I'll be here for at least a year. - Really?
If you transferred then that means you'll have more opportunities to be promoted.
Congratulations!
Auntie Jian gave me your address.
I thought to visit you today since it's the weekend.
Let's go up and chat in my apartment.
8, 9, 9
13, 14,
15, 19
These are the numbers that you sent to the specialists to crack?
There's no meaning behind them.
To understand if there's any meaning behind them, you first have to have the right key.
If there's no direction whatsoever, it'll be like looking for a needle in the ocean.
Also, if in the end the answer was simple it would be a blow to all of us.
We would again be lost in to the dark.
The killing machine case was solved by Professor Bo.
I sent him the numbers that the specialists has cracked
in hopes of Professor Bo having an idea as to what it means.
But he had no reaction.
It could actually be that he has no interest
in what the numbers mean.
- Hello, this is your delivery order. - Okay, thanks.
Please sign here.
Let me tidy up a little.
This is Professor Bo's mail?
Yes it is.
Why is his mail being mailed here?
He's usually not at home, and even if he is at home, he won't open the door.
I'm not sure when this started, but I've been receiving all his mail.
Oh, I forgot to tell you -
he lives a floor above me.
Above you?
He lives a floor above you?
Yao Yao,
If...
I'm saying that...
We've been friends since childhood,
whatever you think is right
if you feel happy, I will support you.
You know, you can tell me honestly.
No. I'm not dating Professor Bo.
I'm telling the truth. It's just I've been his assistant.
So he's just making me do the all the jobs of an assistant out of habit.
You think I don't know what kind of person you are after all those years?
If you weren't-
Bo Jin Yan has always isolated himself into his own world.
I admit that sometimes I'm curious about this world of his,
but I also know that it is a dangerous place.
I don't have enough courage at the moment to get any closer to him.
You know that I'm always on your side right?
Of course I know. You're the most reliable.
- I'll treat you lunch. - Let's go.
- Hello? - Nanshan Cemetary, unit D. Get here immediately.
Hello?
Let's ignore him.

Is this a mourning for your colleague,
or an act out of guilt after you've committed the crime?
What do you mean?
The night Wang Wanwei died,
you went to her room.
You could feel how much this girl liked you,
So you went to her room in the dark of the night trying take advantage of her,
Perhaps she rejected having a relationship with you in that form or manner.
So you were angry. And resulting from that anger,
she laid in the bathtub filled with her blood and water.
Is that right?
No!
I only went to confess to her.
Confess?
From the day she entered the company,
It was love at first sight.
But I'm just a junior salesman.
My salary isn't high and I have no apartment.
I couldn't ever reveal my feelings to her.
Up until that night.
I was thinking about confessing for almost the whole night.
Until I finally picked up the courage to go to her room.
How was her mood at that time?
She looked like she was really happy.
But she seemed a little nervous.
Thank you. I really am happy.
But I need time to think about it.
I'll give you a call.
And then?
And then I went back to my room.
Thank you.
I don't know what happened, but I guess I got a bit dizzy from alcohol at the party and fell asleep.
Up until the day when I woke up, I heard from our colleagues
that Wanwei...
You confessed to the girl you liked,
and she replied that she would think about it.
But on the same night she committed suicide.
Don't you think that it's a little strange? Did you just accept what happened?
Of course not. I discussed it with Manager Lin.
What did you discuss with Manager Lin?
Wang Wanwei would not kill herself! It doesn't make any sense.
Before we left, I met up with her.
She didn't tell me anything!
Manager Lin said I was drunk that night.
That I was not able to see through any unusual behavior.
Everyone knew that Wang Wanwei's sales were not good.
There was a lot of pressure on her for the past few months. She was very unstable.
Or maybe the love I was going to give her,
was not enough for her to stay in this mundane world.
Your mood for the past few days has been a little strange,
that's why we came to have a chat with you.
We hope that this won't affect your work,
or the ambiance at the office.
So what we've talked about today, don't tell anyone.
Do you believe what Mai Chen said?
He went to the deceased's room only to confess his feelings.
Hello?
I discovered Wang Wanwei's secret online diary
there's an entry on the 22nd
22nd?
On the day she died?
I already sent it to your mailbox
Ok, thank you, bye bye
Not bad,
I can even get a thanks now after completing his 'orders'.
The day of Wang Wanwei's death
it should offer some clues
Listen to this section.
He actually came to my room to confess,
The one I love... The clean, pure and handsome young man.
Why do you only come now?
Thank you, for making my life not so despairing.
But do I even have the chance to turn back anymore?
Do I still have the chance to be redeemed?
Okay, I know that you are not used to her style of writing.
But at least this can prove
Mai Chen did not lie.
This can prove that her death note was
written before this diary entry.
That's right.
When she wrote the suicide note, she seemed to have lost all hope.
But in the diary entry, she was clearly hesitant about her suicide.
I can deduce,
on that night, Wang WanWei
Indeed wrote the suicide note, but due to Mai Chen's confession
she decided against it and at the same time made another decision.
and this is the very decision that
she had brought trouble upon herself on.
The few months before Wang WanWei died, she had shown emotions of depression.
Everyone assumed it was due to pressure at work or troubles with her relationships.
But in fact, her unusual behavior had to do with neither work or love.
But instead she somehow got involved in some shady business that we are still investigating in.
10 pm, 22nd of March.
After the banquet, she went back to her hotel room.
Before midnight she wrote the suicide note...
Deciding to end it all.
Mai Chen came over to confess his feelings.
He was over for 20 minutes.
After Mai Chen left, she wrote her last entry.
Taking around 30 minutes.
Police determined the time of Wang Wanwei's death to be between 2.30-3.30am.
Which means
whoever went to her room in this period,
is the most likely suspect.
Is this correct?
You had a guest in your apartment?
Xun Ran came over.
Li Xun Ran?
He got a transfer here, so he came over to see me.
Xun Ran said he sent over the numbers that the professionals discovered a while ago,
Why didn't you respond?
There's no need to respond to something so pointless.
Don't you see it? This case is filled with loopholes. [Roommate] [Black dress]
All trying to tell us that this is a murder case. [Earrings]
and the killer is one of your cute colleagues. [Autopsy]
What does that mean?
I told you before, it's up to you to figure out this case.
Have a think about it.

[Black dress]
[Earring]
[Roommates]
Roommates.
On the night of the Hong Ye Resort case.
The Second Marketing Team all lived in the same group villas.
But it is company policy
Only individuals with positions above the assistant managers can live in individual rooms.
The position of both you and Wang WanWei's wasn't enough.
Apart from Manager Lin, you two were the only women in the group.
So you must have been assigned the same room as her.
You were her roommate.
When she killed herself, where were you?
I know I shouldn't be with him.
but...but I can't help it...
He said that he would have a divorce,
that we wouldn't sneak around like this forever.
The room Manager Fu had to himself,
That night, you were in his room?
Is Director Bo the one investigating this?
Will he fire me?!
He won't.
When they were cheating that night,
they probably did not plan the murder.
As of right now, they should be out of suspicion.
With that progress,
you should be happy.
But what sort of business did Wang Wanwei come to be involved in?
We are still on square one.
That's you, not we.
You already know? Quick, tell me!
Fish skin dumplings.
At the beginning, why did we want to investigate this suicide?
There are no clues that show someone isn't willing to speak up,
Thereby paying the family of the deceased a hundred thousand dollars to keep their mouths shut.
What's the motive of all this?
The body did not have any marks.
In order for the murderer to control Wang Wanwei and have her in the bathtub to leave evidence for a suicide.
He or she may have given her a sleeping pill of some sort, and is scared that it would be detected in the autopsy.
So what if it is detected?
A lot of people use a double method of committing suicide.
Sleeping pills, cutting wrists,
releasing gases. This is nothing out of the ordinary.
Then why?
Deceased body,
stuck in deep mud,
Could not withdraw herself.
Feeling the emptiness after relaxing for the last time.
The beginning and ending of the everlasting darkness,
What can she do that
can be described with these words?
Drugs.
Wang Wanwei had a drug addiction?
That's why when Mai Chen confessed his feelings, she was so regretful
But no one is going to kill her just because she is a drug addict
Drugs?
Are you sure?
I think there is a network of drug trafficking in your company.
The company has zero tolerance to drugs.
If the autopsy was performed at the time
and discovered the Wang Wanwei's drug addiction,
Then I definitely would not ask for you to investigate.
Maybe this is the reason for the hush money.
If not for the tips from the emails,
this case of Wang Wanwei would have already been closed.
The network of the drug network
would remain intact without threat.
Then who paid the amount of a hundred thousand?
Also who sent those emails?
Zi Yu is already investigating into those bank accounts.
As for those emails, I think I know who sent them.
Who did it?
I still can't confirm now but I will soon
I think... you need to first inform the police.
Officer Li.
Hey, you looking for me?
Li, come on, take a seat.
I heard about the Killing Machine case...Professor Bo
-you worked together? -Yes.
Cheng Yu Company just reported the case, police has decided to take over the investigation.
Professor Bo has also agreed to assist us
since you've worked together before
you're now in charge of this case
which case?
Ok, I know, I will tell him.
9, 9, 13, 14, 15, 19
The final conclusion is either just murder
or there are no clues.
Is it really...
simply a murder?
8, 9, 9
13, 14, 15, 19
There's no meaning to it...
Simon
Simon...
This meaning... quick, take a look
Hurry and look at this. This sequence of numbers Sun Xong wrote is actually very simple.
The professionals were thinking too complicated.
Every digit has it's corresponding alphabet, only if you rearrange it...
You already knew this, yes?
Hi Simon.
How would he know you were investigating the case?
Why would he think to leave you this message?
I...am in front of you
Those numbers written in blood
were not written by Sun Yong.
Before we solved the case, someone already knew
Sun Yong was the real murderer.
Or perhaps it was him
who triggered Sun Yong's desire to kill.
This person has an abnormal interest in me
He intentionally triggered
or provoked
those cases I might accept.
He intentionally left clues about himself
before I solved the case
He can then achieve
the sense of accomplishment of staying ahead of me.
Then it was the same for the Cheng Yu Company case.
All those emails sent to you
Were all written by this sociopath?
Why didn't you tell the police?
If such a psycho is targeting you, it's really dangerous
It means he's following your every move
There is no telling when he might attack you
but we don't even know who he is
unless...you're not in the dark
about his identity, you already know?
Hi Simon
I'm so scared...
Come catch me if you can.
Hi Simon
are you my next meal?
Timing and subtitles brought to you by Gone with the Shirt Team@ Viki
Someone has a psychotic interest in me.
Before I solved the case, he left me a message.
He can then achieve
the sense of accomplishment of staying ahead of me.
Where is the information Professor Bo organized?
-Here. -Why do you seem out of it?
The crime scene Hong Ye Resort is an enclosed and private resort.
Cheng Yu Company reserved the resort, there was no visitors.
According to Wang Wanwei's position, resort information shows that
Her roommate was Xue Qing.
Other than personnel in her office,
the victim was alone that night.
And the murderer, after committing the crime, made a significant effort to arrange the crime scene.
He spent a lot of time. He did not show any concern about the return of her roommate.
Based on this, our preliminary determination is that the crime was committed by internal personnel.
Hi Simon...good to see you
It's been a while... thanks
Thanks...the favour I asked...what's the result?
Flower cannibal is one of the most cruel serial killers caught by the FBI.
You helped us capturing him and escorting him to the Bay Area Prison,
the most guarded prison in the U.S.
So believe me, there's no way for him to escape that prison.
Are you implying that Jinyan's request is just a waste of time?
But because you are my friend, Simon,
I did go to prison to check it out in person.
and Tommy is still serving his time in his cell.
He has not been allowed yard time for over a year now,
and had no visitors.
So whoever is stalking you is not Tommy.
I believe he isn't Tommy
but he is copying him
No matter how much he tries to cover it up, I can detect it.
he has a connection with Tommy
and it is an intimate connection
so what are you asking?
A joint investigation.
As for the issue of resource sharing, I believe we can negotiate that.
But the most important
I must participate.
But this is a far different situation from last time, Simon
you forfeited your security clearance when you decided to go back to China
I...I don't see how I can use you officially for this investigation.
Susan, no one understands Tommy better than me
if you really want to solve the case
then you need my help
Let me forward your request to my superiors
Thank you.
There is one bit I don't understand
Deceased change his mind about killing herself
This can be supported by the last page of her diary.
but Professor Bo deduced
the deceased, after writing the suicide note, left the room
Black skirt.
The deceased was wearing a blue dress when she left the party room to return to her room.
And Mai Chen saw her wear a blue dress when he went to confess to her.
The deceased, wearing a black dress
That means she changed her clothes
It was already mid-night when Mai Chen left her.
If Wang Wanwei wanted to change her clothes at this hour,
logically speaking, the most probable clothing
would be her sleepwear or bathrobe.
but she chose a black dress, why?
Oh!
Oh, I understand
She changed to a black dress because she intended to go out
in Wang Wanwei's heart
the blue dress had a special meaning
This was her love's favourite colour
whenever she wore this blue dress
Mai Chen would compliment her
No matter what she planned to do next
it's clear that she did not want to do in in her blue skirt.
Tell me the truth, are you okay?
I brought you home to rest because I thought..
You have done everything you can for me
Let me focus on my work next. I will beat him.
That's pretty fast. You have answer from the last meeting?
According to the Sino-U.S. joint task force agreement on international violent crimes,
We can form a joint investigation team to share information.
As for your classification...
I don't think the Chinese police has any objection. The key is the FBI.
Well, since it involves internal confidential information, the FBI wouldn't authorize your participation as a consultant.
But? Normally this kind of conversation would end with a but.
But, the U.S. government allows a victim the right to assist the ongoing investigation of a case.
Victim?
Well whether you like it or not, Simon, you were a victim of that case.
And that allows you the right to participate in the investigation.
I accept
Good.
I'll take care of the paperwork and call.. contact the Chinese police as soon as I can.
No problem.
Though aren't you going to tell me who she is?
What do you mean who?
Your micro expressions have changed.
Corner of your eyes, lips, fingertips, the color of your clothing...
even your emotions have slightly changed since last time I saw you.
I hope you'll introduce me, soon.
Susan, I know you're a profiling specialist
but please don't profile me.
Didn't you say Ziyu had business with you? Why are you here?
That ended
From where you are, to where I am,
dig up the all the earth under this wooden floor to bring back to the laboratory for inspection.
Yes, sir
Why only this piece?
So unlucky.
What are you looking for?
The missing piece of the data map.
The suicide note was not fake. Wang Wanwei did decide to kill herself that night.
Then
what would be her method of choice to commit suicide?
Wang Wanwei wrote in her suicide note to forgive my weakness,
and allow me to enjoy the emptiness and indulgence for the last time, the starting and ending points of the darkness.
Drug.
She was thinking about using drug overdose
to let everyone know what killed her.
In order to start her new and happy life,
What would be her first move?
Get rid of all the drugs
The murderer couldn't have known that the victim threw away something like this before she died.
Wang Wanwei's drugs were taken from her murderer
If we are lucky,
this can point us to a new name,
solving all the puzzles for us.
So what do we do now?
Investigate.
Beauty, give me a cup of coffee.
Our department has a tradition. We will hold a welcome party for all our new employees.
Tomorrow, 8pm, at my place
Your place?
That's right.
I live alone. The house is big enough.
There's not always a chance to visit my home
Tomorrow?
Yes.
The department has planned the party especially for you.
Everyone's coming, you better not say you're not attending.
I will definitely be there. What should I bring?
Of course
Bring your pretty face.
That's an agreement, see you there tomorrow.
Yes.
