Sparrow
I must save you.
Chen Shen, don't do anything foolish.
If you can't interrogate anything from her, send her to Nanjing.
I believe you also saw those people. You know,
better than I do, who they are.
Stop operation. Wait for me in Shanghai.
I'll immediately contact the operations team in Wuxi to pick you up from the railway station.
You will travel the rest of the way by car.
Bi Zhongliang has calculated your every method of retreat.
The hail of bullets is everywhere.
If I don't try, how will I know I won't survive?
- Episode 7 -
Come out of the car.
I don't have more chances to teach Pi Pi.
I hope that one day,
you can tell him
his parents are true warriors.
Sister-in-Law...
Sister-in-Law,
I really can't do it.
You can.
When your brother first died,
I also thought I couldn't do it,
but I still lived.
I know that choosing to live is the more painful choice,
but you must believe that if one has faith in one's heart,
it can help one surpass all challenges.
Okay, next one. Where is your police certificate?
- This is mine.- Okay, go ahead.
- Thank you.- You.
Hand over your police certificate.
Do you want me to die in front of you?
Okay, next.
Hand over your police certificate.
Chen Shen,
you said that these three years have been hard for you.
It is very important for you to be where you are today.
Continue living and fighting in place of your brother and me.
6258.
People in the car, raise your hands and get out of the car!
Hurry!
- Get out of the car!- Get out!
- Immediately get out of the car! - Get out!
Hurry!
Raise your hands in surrender.
Don't move.
Don't come closer, or else I'll kill him.
- Hurry, hurry! - Boss!
Boss!
Tell them who you are.
I am Special Operations Team 1's team leader, Chen Shen, of Shanghai Special Operations Division.
Stay there and don't move!
Do you believe that I'll shoot him?
Don't do anything foolish. Put down your gun!
Team Leader Chen, tell your men to move and create a path for us.
If you pass this blockade, there will be many more waiting for you.
If I die, it's no big deal.
If Special Operations Division loses you, that'll be a big deal because it hurts their reputation.
They won't let you off the hook.
Quit wasting your breath.
If I drag somebody to die with me, it'll be worthwhile.
Tell your men to move and create a path for us.
Move aside!
Move aside! Put down your guns!
Put them down! Move away.
Don't you see that she's pointing a gun at Team Leader Chen?
Get in the car!
Wait.
I'll be your hostage.
Nonsense.
It was my fault. If she didn't steal my gun, she wouldn't be holding you hostage. Thus, let me bear this consequence.
What a joke.
How could I let a woman take my place as a hostage?
If word gets out, how would I live?
I'll give you two reasons. One, I am a woman.
I'm not as robust as Team Leader Chen. Thus, I am easier to control.
Second, Li Moqun is my relative. He wouldn't just let me die.
Therefore, you'll have a higher chance of getting what you want.
Think about it.
Sounds logical.
I don't agree.
That's right, Mrs. Tang. How could you be a hostage? If something happens to you, never mind Boss. Even Division Chief will be in trouble--
Shut up!
You, come here. Trade places with him.
Like a train finally pulled back to its railway,
Chen Shen's heart was in heavy despair.
Shen Qiuxia already made the final decision for him.
Division Chief.
Division Chief Bi, don't worry. All blockades are heavily guarded.
I believe that those criminals won't escape.
Hello?
Division Chief Bi, it's for you.
Hello? It's me.
Old Bi, it's me. An incident just occurred. We have the prisoner under control now.
I'm glad you're fine.
How am I fine? I almost lost my life.
I already said you have a lucky life. How could that be?
He has to admit that Shen Qiuxia was right.
If he insisted on the rescue, he'd only die.
But is there still another way for her to survive?
At this moment, he's most worried about Li Xiaonan.
It's clear that he can't return to Shanghai tonight.
Did Li Xiaonan get the briefcase yet?
If the briefcase lands in the hands of Bi Zhongliang,
and he gains evidence of their escape,
Li Xiaonan will be dragged into the situation.
Even Shen Qiuxia's efforts would go to waste.
- What did Division Chief say?- Continue to Nanjing.
I already said, how could Boss be a communist?
If Boss is a communist, I'm willing to cut off my head to be used as a chamber pot.
After use, I'll stick my head back onto my body.
Mrs. Tang,
you were so brave just now. You're so smart and courageous.
If it weren't for you, our boss would have been in big trouble.
Impressive.
Sit still.
Don't try to play any more tricks.
Brother Bao!
We found her.
- Where? - In the coffee shop over there.
Brother Bao, what do we do?
Take action?
You can't openly steal from her.
If there's nothing in the briefcase, we can't give Chen Shen a proper explanation.
Oh, that's right. You're right, Brother Bao.
Why didn't I think of that?
- Then, this...- Take off your coat.
Huh?
- Take off your coat.- Oh.
Welcome. Sir, what would you like to drink?
- Blue Mountain Coffee.- Okay, please wait momentarily.
Hello? This is Red Mill Coffee Shop.
I'm looking for Miss Li Xiaonan. She's wearing white clothes.
Oh. White clothes?
- Yes.- All right.
- Please wait a moment.- Okay.
Are you Miss Li?
Yes.
There's a call for you at the front desk.
- Okay, thank you.- You're welcome.
It must be Chen Shen.
Hello?
Why is there no sound?
Excuse me.
Was the call from a man or a woman?
- A man.- A man?
Then, did he tell you his surname?
No, he didn't.
That's so strange.
Where's the briefcase?
You can take action now.
They're now taking the highway.
I understand.
They will be waiting for forces from Nanjing at the gate of Nanjing.
Yes, sir.
Are you okay?
It is very important for you to be where you are today.
Continue living and fighting in place of your brother and me.
Boss, what's wrong?
Are you feeling unwell?
Team Leader Chen, are you okay?
I'm fine.
Let's rest here. The people from Nanjing will be meeting us here later.
Okay.
You should also come out for some air.
Thank you.
Resonance between two lovers
is the best thing in this world.
Our country is currently like Pi Pi.
She has suffered enough hardship and torment. She is being bullied everywhere.
But with soldiers like us, who are willing to devote our lives to achieve freedom,
our country will grow strong one day.
Sister-in-Law, I really can't do it.
I know that choosing to live is the more painful choice,
but you must believe that if one has faith in one's heart,
it can help one surpass all challenges.
Team Leader Chen!

Go see if Liu Erbao is back.
Okay. I'll go look after opening the door.
Division Chief.
Here, Division Chief.
- Did you see what was in the briefcase yet?- Not yet.
I was waiting for you to personally look, Division Chief.
Division Chief, did we misunderstand Team Leader Chen?
- Find someone to be the scapegoat. Send the briefcase to the police station for her to pick it up.- Yes, sir.
I understand.
You can spend it.
How could I possibly do that?
Hello?
I got it. I'll be there right away.
Leave this task to Ah Rong. Come with me to Nanjing immediately.
Right now?
Prime Minister died. Chen Shen might be injured.
What?
Prime--
Shanhai,
you came just in time. Come with me immediately.
- To where?- Nanjing.
Did something happen to Bicheng?
Bicheng is fine. I'll tell you the details on the way.
Wait. I'll be your hostage.
Nonsense.
It was my fault. If she didn't steal my gun, she wouldn't be holding you hostage.
Thus, let me bear this consequence.
What a joke.
How could I let a woman take my place as a hostage?
If word gets out, how would I live?
You're awake.
Where is this?
The hospital. Nanjing Central Hospital.
I don't think I'm injured.
You're not hurt. The doctor said you fainted because your blood sugar level was too low.
- Division Chief.- Division Chief.
- Sleep outside.- Okay.
Only you would do something so embarrassing.
Bicheng, are you okay?
I'm fine.
Shanhai, hurry and take Bicheng home to rest.
She must have been frightened and tired from today.
Okay.
Team Leader Chen, thank you for taking care of Bicheng for me.
Actually, Mrs. Tang was taking care of me.
Let's go.
Wait. I just asked Bian Tou to buy this edible bird's nest. Don't forget to drink it.
Thank you.
Division Chief, we're leaving now.
Bi Zhongliang is watching us.
Don't turn around.
When we get home, you must tell me exactly what happened today.
When we get back, hurry and find me a store.
Why?
I was in charge of escorting the prisoner,
but she was assassinated under my supervision.
If you don't fire me, how will you explain to the higher-ups?
Hurry and help me find a store. I'll open up a barber shop.
Why fire you?
You didn't kill her.
Moreover, the men from the Nanjing government were also at the scene.
They'd also be partly responsible for this.
Who do you think would want to kill a prisoner with a death sentence?
Who do you think?
Bi Zhongliang won't let me reach Nanjing alive.
Why?
Because I know his secret work with Chongqing.
A meticulous person like him
would always leave an escape route for himself.
She's already dead. How does it relate to me?
Then stop thinking about it.
Being able to stop thinking is a blessing.
What has been the briefcase's aftermath?
Ah Rong found a begger to deliver the briefcase to the police station, claiming that he found it.
Luckily, Li Xiaonan also reported it to the police, so she retrieved it.
Chen Shen and Tang Shanhai's train will arrive at 3 p.m. Go personally pick them up at the railway station.
Okay.
Also...
What else?
Division Chief,
should we continue following Team Leader Chen?
Everything else has a plausible explanation, but why did he shake off those people I sent to follow him?
Team Leader Chen didn't know those people were from Songjiang sub-station.
Moreover, it's possible that he was afraid those people were enemies.
You can withdraw.
Yes, sir.
Chen Shen!
You didn't spend my birthday with me.
I didn't see you, either. Do you have anything to tell me?
Men who break their promises are terrible. Just dump me.
I wouldn't dump you. I'll just make a record of it.
I've clearly recorded all that you owe me.
Sure, take your time recording them.
Mr. Tang, Mrs. Tang.
Mrs. Tang, Bian Tou, after coming back, told me
that you helped Chen Shen when he was in trouble. I need to really thank you.
Chen Shen, treat her to a meal. Mr. Tang, join us.
Miss Li, no need to be so polite.
It's no big deal. Chen Shen is paying, not me.
Isn't that right, Chen Shen?
I'll listen to you. Let's go.
Tomorrow night at Huamao Restaurant, okay?
Let's go.
Team Leader Tang.
- Let me.- Okay.
This way, please.
Just now, I was trying to avoid embarrassing you in front of other people.
Don't think I'd really let you off the hook.
You should think about how to make up for my birthday present.
What was in the briefcase?
Did you hide my present in there?
I'll give you your birthday present next time.
Sure. Where are we going now?
Home.
Home is great! Are you going to cook for me to eat?
I meant, you go to your home, and I'll go back to mine.
What do you mean?
You can record this meal, too. I'm truly tired today.
I want to go home and sleep. I'm sorry.
You think I don't know anything, just because you don't tell me?
An Liusan.
Yes?
Using the intelligence that you provided,
we arrested Prime Minister, a major leader of the Shanghai Underground Communist Organization.
This is the award from the higher-ups.
Take it.
Thank you, Division Chief Bi.
In the future, I'll surely loyally work for you.
- Really?- Yes!
Give him the gun.
- This...- Take it.
You deal with these people.
Me?
I...
Yes, sir.
Your award from the higher-ups.
Take it to gamble.
Why did you kill him?
Treacherous traitor for the sake of glory.
Moreover, the only thing he knew was that Prime Minister was meeting up with her comrade.
This money is too unlucky.
Sometimes, I really don't understand how you think.
Hurry!
Move aside! My money!
Team Leader Chen, the girl who wants to marry you is here.
Are you a bee?
You fly to wherever the flowers are.
Then you should know that bees are a matriarchal species.
The bees work their whole lives to care for the queen bee.
Look at you two. I can't even understand the way you two flirt. I'm so envious.
Such a sweet mouth.
Okay, then. Come home and treat the queen bee to a midnight snack.
Let's go.
Team Leader Chen, take care!
I'll give you the new mattress. I'll take the old one.
No need for the trouble. You can just use the new one.
It's no trouble.
- Take care.- You're here!
Are you done trying to act imposing? Can you let go now?
I'm not letting go. The moment I let go,
you'll leave me here again, right?
Have you ever tried to grab sand?
What do you mean?
The tighter you grip the sand,
the faster it'll flow out.
It's the same with men.
The only way to win over a man's heart
is to let go.
Liar.
You're obviously a tile, but you pretend to be sand.
I'm not letting go.
I'll bug you until the end.
Did I owe you in my previous life?
Were you and Chen Shen close in the past?
I don't think I need to answer this question. It does not relate to our work.
I just want to remind you that he works for the Reorganized Government.
No matter what your past relationship,
don't let your feelings get in the way.
Aren't we also working for the Reorganized Government?
We're different.
We are undercover.
At least to outsiders,
we are the same as he.
Looks like we can't have a logical conversation when it comes to him.
Is that so? Then in the future, please don't mention him again.
I mean, maybe Chen Shen isn't as evil as you imagine him to be.
Division Chief, take a look.
This is the inventory that Mrs. Bi is going to deliver to Mengjiang Orphanage.
We can leave them in the Division's warehouse temporarily.
- Thank you.- No, this is only my duty.
How could that be? This isn't a part of your designated job.
If you think about it, this is my wife's private matter.
You could say that I'm abusing my powers.
But as you know, the church of hers
doesn't even have somebody to transport these materials.
I'm worried about her.
Later, I'll treat everyone to a meal.
Contributing my modest means to help Mrs. Bi do acts of charity
is my honor, really.
Then, please help us until the end.
In the afternoon, Chen Shen will deliver the materials to the orphanage.
Can you help him with the transfer process?
Sure, Division Chief.
Mrs. Tang.
I'm going out for some work.
I don't know if I can make it back to eat lunch with you at noon.
Where are you going?
Mrs. Bi is delivering some materials to Mengjiang Church's orphanage.
- Bi Zhongliang told me to go along with them to count inventory.- What?
You're tasked to do the transporting?
No, Chen Shen is in charge of the transportation.
Oh. Then, it shouldn't take too long. Come back quickly. I'll wait for you to eat lunch.
I don't know when it'll finish. No need to wait for me.
Here, I'll pour water for you.
What happened that day?
It's not important.
It failed, anyway.
I took Pi Pi to the pier and waited until the boat left, but we didn't see you,
so we just came back.
How do you plan to tell Pi Pi
about that patriot?
What could I say?
How will I tell him that
his mom was still alive,
but she couldn't visit him?
Quilts, books...
Tables...
- Hurry up.- Okay.
Hurry.
Also, this...
Mrs. Tang.
Our boss really likes children.
I can tell.
Sometimes, I feel like Boss doesn't suit working at Operations Division.
Being a Chinese language teacher is pretty good.
He can't kill people, anyway.
- Really?- Yes.
I'm guessing he once killed people in the Revolutionary Army,
but after joining the Division, he hasn't.
Then, how does he accomplish his missions?
Just normally.
You don't know, but he's really timid. He can't even use guns.
How is that possible?
I heard that in the past, he killed a young Japanese soldier around 14 or 15 years of age.
After that, his brain got messed up and couldn't hold guns anymore.
We visited the doctor. They called it something like "psychological disorder."
It's incurable.
Sorry for coming late. Thank you, everyone.
- It's no big deal. - Mrs. Bi.
You can chat with Mrs. Tang. We still have some work to finish.
Okay. Thank you all.
- It's fine.- Hurry.
Dachun, I haven't seen you in many years. I didn't think we'd have another chance to work together.
I didn't think you were the special agent Rehmannia that the leaders sent here.[Tao Dachun: Nationalist Hurricane Squad's squad leader]
Sit.
Other than you, do other people know about me coming here?
No. Because of your special identity, other than me,
nobody knows your existence, including the Nationalist Military Commission's Shanghai District governor.
This is a name list of the influential Chinese traitors in the Reorganized Government.
My mission from the organization leaders
is to provide you with these traitors' movements to the best of my ability,
so that you can organize assassination plans.
