If the spy isn't found, this matter can't be concluded.
Actually, Bi Zhongliang also want to end this case fast.
This will need someone to give oneself away.
Then other than Bicheng and Meina, are there other suspects?
- The Fatty Yu at Caohejing Prison is a prime suspect.- You want me to frame him?
What are you trying to do?
May Division Chief immediately give the order and let me lead Team Two and join the pursuit.
Don't you feel that Tang Shanhai is too proactive today?
You are saying that he is the internal spy?
I am not suspecting Tang Shanhai and Xu Bicheng.
I never really trusted them in the first place.
Episode 20
Do you know about a top secret Japanese intelligence?
No.
What's wrong?
I heard my uncle Li Moqun mention it before.
I thought you might know.
Xu Bicheng is asking about the secret Japanese intelligence.
Does this mean that the Chongqing Nationalists are also searching for it?
Tang Shanhai has always suspected his identity.
Otherwise, Xu Bicheng wouldn't hastily ask this of himself.
Chen Shen suddenly realized that
if he and Tang Shanhai
both want this intelligence,
their work relationship will collapse in the blink of an eye,
and Tang Shanhai will become
a more frightening enemy than Bi Zhongliang.
Good morning, Team Leader Tang.
Morning.
When I was eating breakfast, I coincidentally ran into Team Leader Chen.
What did you eat?
Soft tofu, soy milk, Chinese crullers.
In the future, don't eat on the streets. It's unsanitary. If you can, eat more at home.
How could that be? I ate these foods growing up.
You should really try them some day.
Maybe.
Did you place this in my room?
Yes.
Do you like it?
Thank you for your intentions,
but this gift is too expensive. I can't accept it.
Our funds also shouldn't be spent this way.
If this gift was from Chen Shen, would you like it?
[Archive Room]
These years, I've been on countless blind dates,
but none has succeeded. They all ended in failure.
Bicheng, I don't even know when I can get married.
Meina, I think you're pretty and gentle.
A man will surely appear to dote on you.
Forget it. Good men are always other women's husbands.
Whose husband are you into now? Don't worry. I'll help you steal him.
Look, another person's here to mock me.
I'm returning a file.
Wait. I'll fill out the paperwork after I return from the bathroom.
Sure.
Will that secret intelligence I mentioned be in the archives room?
We'll find out after searching.
But would they archive such an important file?
Help me guard this door. I'll help you search.
Meina!
Mrs. Tang, why are you here?
Where's Meina?
She went to the bathroom.
Then, I'll wait for her.
Secretary Qian,
I finished typing half of the meeting minutes that you gave me. There are some unreadable words.
Can you go to my office and help me see what they say?
Sure!
Meina isn't back, and this door is opened. Let's wait until she returns.
She has the keys. We'll only need to close the door for her.
Oh, okay.
- Let's go.- Let's go.
Meina, we were just looking for you.
Why did you need me?
Look what this is!
Beauty in the Turbulent Days.
What's wrong?
Golden Star Movie Company's movie. It's really hard to buy a ticket.
- Ah, so watch it by yourself.- This...
This movie is really not bad. It tells about a family that got separated when they were escaping the war.
The wife got forced to become a prostitute while the husband remarried.
Jeez, look at that. I knew it. How can there be any beauty during turbulent days?
Our lives now are chaotic enough, yet we still have to watch how chaotic other people's lives are? Isn't that exhausting?
- Not watching.- This movie is really very nice.
Shanhai and I both loved it.
Look how good Team Leader Tang is.
- That's right.- He even accompanies his wife to watch movies.
And the hairstyle and dresses in it are so pretty
There is an actress there that is really very like you, Meina. I think you really should watch it.
- Really?- Meina, we must go watch it.
One is to see your look-alike and second, let's not waste this ¥0.6 ticket.
I just bought a pictorial magazine of this movie. It has this movie's hairstyle there.
I feel that it really suits you. You want to take a look at it?
Then Bicheng, go and bring it over to me.
I'll first help Team Leader Chen process the case files he returned.
Team Leader Chen said that he'll just go back to his room for a while and come back later.
His things are still here.
Anyway, Secretary Qian is also going to my office.
How about you just come with us?
Fine. I'll just lock the door.
Thank you.
- Let's go.- Let's go. Let's go.
What were you doing earlier? I almost died from fear.
I knew that you would be able to handle it.
What if I wasn't able to? What will you do?
You even frequently scold me
for not considering sudden events. How about you then? Just considering the start but not the end.
Didn't you want to get that intelligence?
If we don't risk a little danger, how are we going to get it?
You are helping me find the Japanese special project?
- Sit down.- Chen Shen, are you inside?
Chen Shen.
Sister-in-law, why are you here?
Zhongliang told me to come here and tell you
to bring Xiaonan later tonight and have dinner with us in Huamao Restaurant.
It is a dinner organized by Supervisor Li of the Central Headquarters.
Can I just come alone?
Of course not. Why must you come alone?
You must bring Xiaonan, okay?
Say, have you gotten used to living in this office of yours?
I already chose so many dates for you, you should at least pick one, right?
If you are unable to choose, it's fine. Just tell me.
I'll decide for you.
Say, sister-in-law,
what kind of drug did Li Xiaonan place on you that you are selling me off?
You're the drugged one.
You just don't want to get married no matter what we do.
What kind of person do you really want to look for?
Mrs. Bi.
Mrs. Tang, you're also here. Sorry, I didn't see you.
I was a bit rude. So sorry.
- I'm the one who was rude.- Let me tell you. Good think you are here.
Help me talk to Chen Shen.
Say, he is already not that young.
He should marry sooner or later, right?
Yes, he should get married.
Sit. Sit.
Hey, Mrs. Tang, you've met Xiaonan before, okay?
Then tell me, isn't Xiaonan quite a good lady?
Intelligent, quick-witted, and adorable.
Isn't it, Mrs. Tang?
Let me tell you. I feel that she's sensible and obedient.
What's more important is, she is able to control him.
Control me?
Sister-in-law, are you looking for a wife for me or a mother?
Don't you know
that a woman controlling a man is his good fortune?
If you don't believe me, ask Mrs. Tang.
While at home, Mrs. Tang surely is able to control Mr. Tang.
I...don't know how to run one's home.
Mrs. Tang, you are being humble.
Let me tell you. I am very good in reading people.
Although you look very refined,
I know that deep inside, you know your own mind very well.
In your home, you must have the last word.
No.
Mrs. Tang,
I know that when one is outside, you surely have to give your man some dignity.
But in one's house, it should be us women who have the final say.
Let me tell you. I know so many married couples.
As long as you have this kind of pairing,
they are really living quite blissfully.
- They are really so in love.- Sister-in-law,
you probably need to do something else, right?
I...don't need to do anything else.
I don't have anything else to say.
That...Mrs. Tang, you probably will be going to the dinner, right?
I haven't received the call yet.
You two will surely be invited. See you tonight then.
I'm going now. You two chat.

Mister, you want to have your shoes shined?
Tao Dachun is being followed. Where did the problem occur?
Could their movements been discovered by the people from the Reorganized National Government
or there is a spy inside the Nationalist Government?
Tang Shanhai hoped that Tao Dachun can immediately dispose of this person.
Based on usual practice,
he will meet again with Tao Dachun
at the second meeting place.
- You're saying that Li Xiaonan will also attend the party tonight?- That was what Mrs. Bi said today.
By rules, an outsider shouldn't be allowed to join this kind of dinner.
Old Bi surely knows the graveness of this matter.
Could this be uncle's wish?
I'm just afraid that this matter isn't as simple as you think.
Bi Zhongliang always has a reason for doing anything.
This surely isn't a simple dinner.
No way.
Let us not talk about this first.
When I was supposed to meet with Old Tao today, he got followed.
Did Old Tao notice it?
We still don't know who the person following him is. I will meet with him again tomorrow at another place.
Mr. Tang, Mrs. Tang, are you both done already?
It's Li Xiaonan. Chen Shen asked us to take her to the restaurant.
I know. I'll just go change.
Ms. Li, please wait for a while.
Sister Lanzhi, didn't Division Chief come together with you?
He...
Supervisor Li sent him to fetch an important guest. He would arrive a bit later.
Important guest? What kind of important guest?
This, I don't know.
This surely isn't a simple dinner.
Let's eat some snacks.
Everyone is here.
So sorry, I'm late.
Uncle, I brought you a bottle of good alcohol.
TOV's brandy is one of my favorite.
Johnny Walker's whiskey is not bad too. They all came from Chongqing.
Really good alcohol. I'm fine with it.
I just fear that Zhongliang and Chen Shen won't like it.
I brought my own Huadiao. You all just drink what you want.
I'll still be drinking kvass.
Supervisor, please sit.
Look.
We all can't drink the same alcohol. People from the Operations Division have their own individual character.
Individual character? You are praising me too much.
I am just old-fashioned. A dog food that isn't able to be served as a cuisine.
Your Huadiao is still considered alcohol. I'm the real one who is being stubborn here.
The more I dare not request Chen Shen to drink anymore.
He claims to be the person that won't drink any drop of wine even in front of Mr. Wang of the Reorganized Government.
Didn't Mrs. Bi say that we still have another important guest today?
- Didn't he come?- Huh?
He will be here in a while. We can start first.
Come. Serve the alcohol first.
Does everyone know why I like holding dinners or parties here?
This is the place where General Kagesa, the head of the Service Office Mei, summoned me for the first time.
I remember that General Kagesa then told me
that this place is where Sun Zhongshan continued to strive hard during the times
when the rebellion wasn't a success yet.
This is also where Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling got engaged.
That's why gathering here is the best venue to show our strength to the enemies.
Mr. Su,
Supervisor Li of the Special Agents Central Headquarters and our Division Chief are waiting for you inside.
Guard all exits and prevent anyone from going in or out!
Yes!
Eat more.
It's a pity that General Kagesa has already went back to Japan to report on the completion of his mission.
Or else, I would have invited him here to have dinner with everyone.
That's why, the Special Agents Central Headquarters will welcome any new important guest here?
- That's right.- Come, Supervisor Li, cheers.
Come.
Our new friend has arrived.
Come in!
[Su Sanxing: Nationalist Military Commission's Shanghai District vice governor]
Everyone,
this is the Nationalist Military Commission's Shanghai District vice governor, Su Sanxing.
He defected to the side of light and came to our Special Agents Central Headquarters.
Have you found a new base?
We found one already. It's near Jing'an Temple.
Su Sanxing helped me find it.
Su Sanxing?
Shanghai District's vice governor?
Yes.
Starting today,
we will be people on the same boat.
- Stop right there.- What are you doing? Trying to block my path? Don't you want to live anymore?
If you don't want to die, just go out as you like.
Sorry...
Team One are all here. What are we going to do next?
Wait.
What's going on that we have to come here in a rush? I was in the middle of dinner.
Very important task. Just wait to be rewarded.
If I am not rewarded, I'll look for you.
Be in formation! Stand well!
Stand well! Back to formation!
Mr. Tang.
before you had joined the Special Agents Central Headquarters,
I already heard of your famous name.
You flatter me.
I am guessing that this must be Team Leader Chen Shen.
Team Leader Chen you are actually second
in the name list of traitors to be assassinated by the Hurricane Squad.
Old Bi, listen to that.
Working underneath you provides such bad luck for me.
I'm already second.
I think you're higher than that.
In the previous period, you were ambushed most frequently. Your life must be worth a lot of money.
Yes. I agree with Supervisor Li's words.
Looks like Hurricane Squad's conspiracy will be succeeding soon.
They've created so many false illusions by ambushing me to make me appear grandiose.
Now, they don't even need to attack,
and Supervisor and Old Bi will eventually kill me.
Honestly,
when I first met Mister Su,
I felt like I found the jackpot.
That's too highly of a praise, Supervisor Li.
Mister Su, I'm guessing you brought a grand gift to Central Headquarters.
Of course.
It's just a small gift to show my respect.
This is the secret hideouts of each Nationalist Military Commission's Shanghai District substations,
their personnel directory, and code names.
Please accept this gift, Supervisor Li.
Everyone, after tonight,
we can sit back and relax.
Nobody can escape, unless Mister Su's name list is fake.
Sanxing, sit down and eat some food.
We have the Nationalists trapped now.
We don't have to rush.
I'll propose a toast to you first.
No matter what happens, you must find a way to contact Old Tao.
In this restaurant, there is a waitress in the bathroom who works for Old Tao.
I will tell you the countersign.
I need to use the restroom. Excuse me.
Su Sanxing's betrayal made Chen Shen realize that
the Nationalists are highly likely to meet disaster this time.
Did Xu Bicheng suddenly leave
to alert her fellow Nationalists?
Chen Shen feels inexplicable fear.
Li Moqun and Bi Zhongliang purposefully did not take immediate action.
It's obvious they're waiting for somebody to expose themselves.
Thus, any action from Xu Bicheng now
will only speed up her own exposure.
Then, Chen Shen sees Bi Zhongliang glance at himself.
Chen Shen understands that Bi Zhongliang wants him to go keep an eye on Xu Bicheng.
Chen Shen knowingly left.
He must stop Xu Bicheng before she creates trouble.
Supervisor, may you have good health.
Waitress,
I need a towel and some ice.
I want a white towel. Can you help me deliver it to the VIP room?
Miss, we only have blue towels left.
Smells so good.
After marrying Tang Shanhai, you've also become tasteful. It's French perfume, right?
But I remember that in the past, you liked to use Pechoin perfume.
You mustn't act rashly.
Otherwise, both you and the other Nationalists will die.
Mister Su!
Mister Su.
Wipe it off. If you're wet in this type of weather, it's easy to catch a cold.
Thank you.
My name is Li Xiaonan. I am Chen Shen's fiancée.
I need to use the restroom.
Bicheng!
Chen Shen, you're also here! I'm using the restroom.
Wait for me!
Why should I wait for you to use the bathroom?
Subtitles and Timing brought to you by the Gone With The Shirt Team @ Viki
Mrs. Tang.
Mister Su, are you using the bathroom?
Have one.
Thank you.
Supervisor Li likes alcohol, but not cigarettes.
In the future, don't smoke in front of him.
Thank you for the reminder.
In the Operations Division in the future, please take good care of me.
No problem. I'm a barber.
I can cut your hair.
You have a good sense of humor, Team Leader Chen.
I just knew you'd wait for me!
I'm smoking with Mr. Su. You can go back first.
Then, come back soon.
Team Leader Chen, your fiancée's very pretty.
She told you that?
She said that she's my fiancée?
Don't listen to her nonsense.
In my heart, she's like a buddy.
- Would you marry your buddy?- Oh.
Excuse me.
[Ginseng]
Go back!
Back up!
- We've received an order!- Back up!
Back up! Go back in!
Go back.
- We want to go home!- Why won't you let us leave?
- Go back!- We want to go home!
- Our work time is over!- Be reasonable!
- Why won't you let us go home?- Go back inside!
Nobody is allowed to leave.
- What are you doing?- I'm getting some plates and chopsticks.
Come here, come here!
Come here! After her!
Stop!
Don't move!
We're standing here like idiots!
Why aren't we taking action? Are they fooling with us?
Operations Team 2 is coming in full force.
What are they doing?
Stand still!
Lanzhi,
- here, let's propose a toast to Supervisor Li and Mrs. Li. - Okay.
- Here, Supervisor.- Cheers, Mrs. Li and Supervisor Li.
Thank you.
Supervisor Li, Division Chief, I've eaten enough.
I think we should take off now.
There's no rush, Mister Su. Have some fruits first.
Supervisor Li already said that a few minutes wouldn't make a difference.
Zhongliang must have other plans in mind.
Supervisor, then can you allow me to continue dragging out the time?
Of course you can.
Sir!
Come inside.
- Division Chief.- Speak.
We captured a waitress trying to escape.
Supervisor Li, look at that.
Didn't you claim I was dragging out the time?
Now the punchline is here.
You must cleanse the rice.
After cleansing, you'll find that Nationalist bugs are hiding in Huamao Restaurant.
You're right.
Perhaps an even bigger bug
is hiding in this room.
Lanzhi,
help me keep Supervisor Li and Mrs. Li company.
Oh, okay.
People from Operations Division, come downstairs with me.
Mrs. Li,
- if you have time, come to my house to play mahjong.- Sure. How about next week?
Sure!
Will you confess?
Say it! Why are you trying to escape?
Answer!
Will you answer?
Hurry and say it!
Hurry!
Why aren't you answering?
Say it.
Why are you trying to escape?
I just want to go home. My child is sick at home.
Please let me go.
I need a towel and some ice.
I want a white towel. Can you help me deliver it to the VIP room?
Miss, we only have blue towels left.
Still lying?
I'm not lying.
Please let me go.
My child is really sick!
Looks like you want to die!
That's enough.
Find out which floor she works at.
Division Chief, I don't think now is the time to investigate this situation.
Catching the people is more important. Many things can happen overnight.
Lock her up upstairs.
- Take her away!- Get up!
- I'm begging you, let me go!- Get up!
- I want to go home!- Go!
Let me go!
Let me leave!
I want to go home!
Don't act rashly.
Otherwise, both you and the Nationalists will die.
Let me go! I want to go home!
Behave!
She was trained by the Nationalist Military Commission for many years.
She knows that death is the only method to hiding her secret.
Team Leader Chen, Team Leader Tang,
starting now, you two will be under instruction of Su Sanxing.
Take the Special Operations Team 1 and 2
to raid the Nationalist's nest in Shanghai.
- Let's go!- Hurry!
Tang Shanhai understands that
every section of this operation
is meticulously calculated and planned by Bi Zhongliang.
He's waiting for him to give himself away.
Now, his every action and word
will be carefully watched and reported by Bi Zhongliang's men.
He has no chance to alert his comrades in Shanghai to retreat.
Even if he sends out the warning, other than putting his life on the line,
it will not help the situation.
This makes Tang Shanhai fall into deep despair.
- Who is it?- Me! Su Sanxing!
Vice Governor Su, you're back!
Wait a second! I will come retrieve you!
I'm coming.
It's so late. Why aren't you sleeping? Did you need something?
