When a Snail Falls in Love - Episode 2 -
Who did this? Who? Who could be so wicked and heartless?
Burying blades in the grass field, and painting them green.
Madam, is it your first time bringing the child here to play?
My home is nearby.
I come here with my grandson when I'm free.
Who knew such a terrible thing could happen?
Officer, I found more blades buried in another grass field.
Xiao Liu, follow him to have a look.
What's wrong?
You are really strong!
This is a piece of cake.
They found blades in Jianshe Garden.
It's the same product model, with the "Ye Corporation" logo.
Ye Corporation?
Hello?
You guys are lucky. You just reported and there is already a case.
Ok, I understand.
New case.
What should I wear?
The No.3 Team has checked three grass fields and found 208 blades altogether
There are "Made By Ye Corporation" logos on all the blades.
Although Ye Corporation mainly invests in real estate and import/export nowadays, their blades are still very popular.
After procuring evidence, No.3 Team resorted to expert advice and the results show that they are from Ye Corporation.
Relax.
Just some naughty boys who got their hands cut while frolicking on the grass fields.
We're taking care of the case only because No.3 Team requested us to.
I don't think it is a serious case.
What's the matter with you! Hasn't Police School taught you that
"There are no minor matters in public security. Be vigilant and be prepared for danger in times of peace?"
We cannot determine the seriousness of this case just yet.
I must severely criticize you, Monkey, for this attitude!
Fine. I will reflect.
Anyway, interns should listen more, remember more
if there is something wrong, we can still depend on Fourth Brother to help us.
Last Tuesday, your store sold all available stock, namely the 208 special-model blades.
There is no receipt. Who picked up the goods?
Our Manager Zhang.
Manager Zhang? Who?
Zhang Shiyong, our General Manager.
He personally picked them up himself?
The Ye Family Group has 13 stores around the city.
Mr. Zhang is the general manager. He wouldn't come to retrieve such things himself.
Hey, little girl, do you know what that tile is made of?
I have never seen such material.
I dare say that in the whole city, only our store has this kind of tile.
This ground tile is called Myanmar Cold Jade, this little block you are standing on
is equivalent to how much this batch of blades are worth.
This batch of blades
were put in different grass fields and hurt people.
Officer, the headquarters said Manager Zhang hasn't returned following last week's meeting.
- How about his family? - We don't know.
Zhang Shiyong ordered the blades and has been off work for 5 days.
Now Fourth Brother is inside with the two interns to find out more details.
If necessary, we can go in a few minutes later.
Mrs. Ye, your husband has been missing for 130 hours.
During this time, a huge batch of paper cutters was signed out under his approval.
Now we have confirmed that these are weapons which endanger public security.
You have to answer our questions.
I was already questioned by another officer over the phone.
The last time I saw him was 130 hours ago.
I haven't received any news from him since.
As to the paper cutters that were labelled as weapons by you guys, I really don't know anything about it.
He and I manage different sectors of Ye Corporation.
I won't communicate with him even if I sell a building.
Why would he report to me after selling hundreds of paper cutters?
Mrs. Ye, your husband has been missing for 130 hours.
Are you not worried at all?
If I'm a lady who cries easily in front of others when I can't find my husband,
I wouldn't be allowed to manage Ye Corporation's real estate.
Reporting missing persons is essential and perfectly legal.
Is legal protection given to every citizen who reports a case?
If so, my senior uncle wouldn't be lying under a memorial tablet in the Ye family's ancestral temple.
I know how much effort your police have made.
For example, your father...
However,
policemen who died in the line of duty didn't provide much help.
Mrs. Ye,
we feel sorry for the misfortune that befell on your family years ago.
And we understand the fear and anxiety that you are feeling again with the situation now, and the distrust that you have in me.
But you must remember,
whether it is in the past or present, the victims must cooperate with the police.
Whether it is in the past or present, the Ye family has never deceived the police.
Okay. In order to clear you of any possibility of you harboring the suspect,
we wish to search your residence for any potential safety hazards.
Mrs. Ye. I hope you can cooperate with us.
If you want to search, do it yourself. Go ahead.
Come in.
Got it.
Go. Let's get to work.
Ye Zi, come and eat.
Coming!
- Xiao Bai, come. Sit here. - You have a seat, please.
- We are all juniors. - Little Ye Zi, come have a seat.
Old Li, install the audio monitoring devices.
Yao Meng, contact the Information Department to check Ye Family Hardware's recent surveillance camera recordings and verify Zhang Shiyong's whereabouts.
Zhang Shiyong won't be coming back.
He has been kidnapped.
Please explain what you meant.
Firstly, Ye Family Hardware's Nancheng Branch is the first shop under the name of the company's chairman.
It has been and still is under the direct management of Ye Lanyuan.
Myanmar Cold Jade floor tiles, pure brass Thai style window rods,
the cupboards are made from rare sillkwood native to the Zhenxi forests.
In the numerous stores under the Ye Family Group, only this one store has this special honor.
Under normal circumstances, the stocks in this store,
wouldn't be taken out easily, even if they're the sons and daughters of Ye Lanyuan.
let alone Zhang Shiyong. A person of a different surname. 3rd son-in-law.
Secondly, from the solo picture of Ye Qiao in the living room's side table, we can infer that
there was a wedding photo hanging above the fireplace.
Thus, we can know that Ye Qiao was once very happy with her marriage.
Until a week ago, there were some differences between them.
And even Ye Qiao wanted Zhang Shiyong to disappear from her life.
From Ye Qiao's deportment, dressing and mannerisms,
we can see that she's not that smart, doesn't have much taste, yet is a narcissistic person.
Generally speaking, such person cannot tolerate spouse's infidelity in her marriage.
But to have extramarital affair under the eyes of Ye Qiao, a rich family's girl,
this Zhang Shiyong must be very smart.
Lastly, Zhang Shiyong is the general manager of Ye Family Hardware.
With his intelligence and status, he doesn't have to personally order a transfer of the goods.
And he doesn't even need to personally bury the blades in the park.
So there's only one possibility left.
Zhang Shiyong was taken hostage.
- So what you mean is- - Zhang Shiyong moved out a week ago.
Ye Qiao just doesn't want to admit her marriage is a failure.
As to where Zhang Shiyong is now, and if he's taken hostage,
Ye Qiao doesn't know. She didn't lie.
You used to bring me here to Grandpa's house and watch you and Uncle Zhao do training.
Everytime, it was you who cycled a bicycle and I sat on the crossbar.
You cycled all the way from school to here.
Do you still remember the one time when I was with you on the bike, a policeman stopped you?
The policeman wanted our names. I told him I'm Ye Qiao.
Ye Qiao must have hated you for it.
She complained to Ye Ziqiang,
and instructed all the students in school to ignore me.
And in a very long time,
only you and your friends were willing to talk to me.
Grandpa Ji's house is still the same as 15 years ago.
The dishes that Auntie Zhou made, they still taste the same as before.
Third Brother is still the old Third Brother.
Sadly, I'm not the old Ye Zi anymore.
Lao Si.
I know. I'll be back tonight.
This morning, in the riverside park near high class residence Lang Huan Estate,
a four-year-old child was cut by blades buried in the grass field.
Dozens of blades were found in the grass field.
The sharp sides were all facing upwards. It's man-made. It's a malicious act, causing great harm to society.
Investigation has shown that there's three other areas with such blades in the park.
The areas are where children would play.
Xiao Xu should be able to read a person, since she's a psychologist.
But could she be Sherlock Holmes?
This is a life-and-death matter. We'd rather believe her.
Team Leader Zhao.
I've informed Third Brother. He'll be back tonight.
This case is most likely an act of revenge against Ye Family Group.
Da Hu and Yao Meng, you two stay behind and protect Ye Qiao.
For the sake of safety, Yao Meng, you'll have to protect her in close proximity and mustn't leave her side at all.
Yes, Sir.
If he's really been kidnapped, then I would tell the kidnapper
that I don't have any money. Just kill him.
You guys don't have to worry so much then.
The police have confirmed that all blades comes from Chengnan Branch of Ye Family Hardware.
Ye Family Group has not responded to this matter yet.
Okay. Contact us anytime.
The rest of you, head back to the station.
Yes.
Team Leader Zhao,
the kidnapper will call soon.
It's the kidnapper.
The kidnapper will let the hostage talk first.
What shall I say?
Up to you.
At this moment, just say what you wish to say to your husband.
Hello, is this Qiaoqiao? Qiaoqiao, it's me. Save me.
You have to save me! Qiaoqiao! Qiaoqiao!
You finally remembered me. You know you have to beg me now.
Why don't you look for-
Go and die! You go and die, you!
You did well.
Next, the kidnapper will talk to you personally.
Remember. Firstly, tell him you are very scared.
You want to bring along your cousin. It has to be a crowded public place.
Secondly, bargain with him.
Tell him firmly that the limit is 2 million. Any amount more than that, you'll call the police.
Hello?
Five million. Cash. Chinese yuan. Non sequential numbered notes.
At the most 2 million. I only have that much.
I'm scared to go by myself. I want to bring along my cousin.
Did you hear that, Manager Zhang? Ye Family's son-in-law.
You are only worth 2 million.
Two million is the maximum.
Otherwise, I will go and call the Police.
Or else you go ahead and kill him!
You are testing my patience. Prepare the money.
Five million. Cash. Chinese yuan. Non sequential numbered notes.
Play it again.
Hello?
Prepare ¥2 million for me.
Cash. I don't want to hear that!
Hold back the investment on spa city.
Wait a second.
Maybe borrow from the Hardware Department.
Get it done before sunrise. And wait at the bank for me.
Mrs. Ye,
has Zhang Shiyong offended anyone before?
Xu Xu, eat the noodles.
How is it going? It should be fine since Yao Meng is with her.
Nothing. Just that she's slightly distraught.
I want to ask,
how did you know
when the kidnapper will call?
The one who buried the blades and the kidnapper could be the same person.
Usually after the kidnapping has happened, the kidnapper will call and ask for ransom within 48 hours.
And this person hasn't made any contact.
I suspect he's waiting for the blades to be discovered,
so he can smear the Ye Family Group's public image as well.
Just now, the news had reported negatively on Ye Family Group.
The kidnapper had achieved his motive.
So there's no reason for him to delay and not contact the family members.
Your deductive reasoning ability is really
astonishing.
How about this? When we're back in the station, we'll discuss your analysis again.
Oh right. The tailing and and capture afterwards-
I understand. My fitness is not up to par, so I will not be deployed to take part in the operation.
But there would be many clues during the tailing process.
It'll be beneficial in analyzing the next step.
I request to take part in the whole process.
The next step?
You meant that we can't save the hostage?
Or is the kidnapper too experienced? Or...
I think this kidnapper is an amateur.
He's a first-timer in kidnapping.
This may well be the first time he's committed a crime.
- Then? - Not kidnapping.
But it is...
Team Leader Zhao, since you've made an exception for me to be recruited,
everything the interns are allowed to participate in, I should be in it, too.
I'll strictly follow all orders.
If you meet with any trouble, remember to look for the police.
I hope there won't be any trouble.
Go.
How is it?
We've completed the preliminary round of information gathering. But we still couldn't figure out anything.
Take the three delivery addresses of the blades,
and the addresses of the parks where the blades were buried, key them into the geological map system and do a postal code analysis.
Get all the employees' work schedules and rosters of the parks where the blades were buried, do a multi factor analysis.
Filter all males living in the local city age between 20 and 50.
Filter all the employees who just started working within a year.
Gather all information of the cleaners and security guards whom Jiangzhou Shopping Mall employs,
- and their addresses, key into the geological map system. - Yes.
Send the documents of Ye Family Group's blades case to my office in one minute.
I got it. I know.
The location they requested is Jiangzhou Shopping Mall. Ye Qiao is to put the ¥2 million into a suitcase.
She is to go to a dessert store on the 2nd floor to buy a cake.
Finally, she is to put the suitcase on a seat on the 2nd floor of Feng Huang Restaurant.
Don't be nervous.
I will be with you all the way.
In a while, I'll address you as "sister."
You address me as "Xiao Meng."
I'll protect your safety.
Team Leader Zhao has made all preparations.
What about him?
Zhang Shiyong.
Safely rescuing the hostage is our objective.
He...
He can just die.
Cousin, do you think the kidnapper will be watching us
as soon as we arrive at the cake shop?
There's no one watching. You don't have to start acting yet.
Preparation is key.
The earlier you get used to your 'little sister,' the harder it is for the kidnapper to see through our trick.
This way it'll be easier to rescue Zhang Shiyong.
Don't worry.
As long as we give him the money, the hostage will be released.
Manager Ye. Manager Ye, this is against the rules.
Manager Ye! Manager Ye.
Manager Ye, according to procedure...
Manager Ye.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
