Sparrow
I've already confirmed with our leaders. Chen Shen isn't one of us.
Then, why is he helping us? If he's Sparrow,
then he wants the Return to Zero Plan. Could we possibly give it to him?
You really don't have any ulterior reasons?
Can I say that it's you?
Are you also getting close to me for intelligence?
It's still uncertain if we can get the Return to Zero Plan. We still need to prepare an escape route.
Episode 32
You really are a liar!
- Come on! Come on! - Come on!
One, two, three, four, five. Bomb!
One, two, three, four, five. Bomb! No more!
Just one! Just one! It's a bomb!
- I can't top him. - Go!
Just one! Just one, bomb him!
- Bomb him! Hurry. - Only you've been winning tonight.
Do you want people to sleep? I'll blow you all up; do you believe me?
Boss, you're sleeping so early.
Get lost. Get lost as far away as possible.
Let's go!
- Get up! - Let's go, let's go.
Hurry! Clean it up!
Hurry, hurry.
Hurry.
Team Leader Zeng.
- Team Leader Zeng. - Xiao Xie.
- Why are you here? - I have relatives over at my house. I wanted some peace and quiet.
- Continue keeping guard. - Okay.
Who exactly are you?
Put down the gun first. We can talk slowly.
Say it! Are you a communist or a nationalist?
It's true.
You guys really came for the intelligence.
- Who is "you guys"? - You and Chen Shen! You guys approached me with ulterior motives!
Why? Why must you treat me this way?
Meina, it's true that I hid some things from you,
but my feelings for you are real.
You're still lying to me!
If your plan fails and people find out
that you stole the keys from me to get the intelligence,
will Service Office Mei and Special Agents Central Headquarters show me mercy?
Will Bi Zhongliang show me mercy?
Did you ever consider my fate?
I considered it. Of course I did.
I was afraid you'd be scared after knowing. That's why I didn't tell you.
I even was ready
to die if I failed,
but I would never bring you down with me.
If I can secure your safety,
I can even give up my life.
Did you know that
in the beginning, I never planned to get close to you?
I was hesitating.
I was afraid that I'd actually fall for you.
I was even more afraid that if I make one wrong move,
it will also put you in danger.
I'm a soldier. I am a soldier with a mission.
I can't ask for you to be like me,
to give up your life for your faith.
A woman like you
deserves a different type of life.
You should have a man to protect and care for you.
You should live freely with no worries.
You shouldn't be here, spending everyday in fear.
Because of you,
for the first time,
I considered being a deserter.
I even planned
to leave with you
after this mission,
but I can't leave right now.
My mission has not been accomplished yet.
I can't bring shame to my own country.
I need to fulfill my last responsibility to my party.
But what about afterwards?
I also have my ideal life for the future,
to live for the woman I love the most.
The woman you love the most? Is it me?
Of course it's you.
Meina, did you know that
I actually prepared the ring that Chen Shen used to propose to Li Xiaonan last night?
I couldn't let Xu Bicheng see. I asked Chen Shen to keep it safe for me.
If Li Xiaonan and Su Sanxing hadn't found that ring, Chen Shen wouldn't have faked that proposal to save me from embarrassment.
If you don't believe me, go ask him.
You two didn't collude to create this story?
I'm not afraid to tell you: Xu Bicheng and I are only partners.
We were never truly husband and wife!
Xu Bicheng loves Chen Shen.
Silly.
After tonight, you will be my woman.
Originally, I wanted to slowly tell you this on the road.
- Do you need the Return to Zero Plan? - Yes.
If I get it for you, can you take me away immediately?
Immediately.
That's not right. Are you still lying to me? Are you?
If I put down my gun right now, will you kill me?
A couple for one night brings a hundred days of gratitude.
How could I hurt you?
Meina, thank you for trusting me.
I reset the safe box's password
to 767 each time.
Hello?
I'm being watched right now, so I can't go anywhere. Immediately go find our comrades at Xinchen Inn.
Does Old Tao live there?
Yes. Tell him
that I need to leave Shanghai through the Qiangjiajiao Ferry Port at Suzhou Creek in two hours. Tell him to prepare a car.
But where will we find cars at night?
Tell him the mission as I have said it. He can do it.
Okay. Are you still okay?
Everything is fine.
Okay. You must be careful of safety.
- Hurry. - I know.
Hurry and pack your things.
Let's go to Ningbo first and then think of a way to go to Hong Kong from Ningbo.
Okay. Once I've done packing up, let's go to the division first.
I know the password for the safe.
Once I've take the file that you want, let's immediately leave.
Okay.
Who is it?
Assistant Team Leader Zeng, why are you acting so suspiciously this late at night?
Oh, Brother Bian Tou, this...you're on duty?
Why are you standing by the door of our boss's office?
- Playing hide and seek? - Bian Tou, you misunderstood.
I was just going to the bathroom, to the bathroom.
Going to the bathroom? I heard it all! You said that there are people in your house and you can't sleep
so you came to your office to sleep. Where is your office? Your office is downstairs!
In terms of position, I am the assistant team leader of team 3.
What right do you have to talk to me that way?
Even if your position is higher than me, you still have to explain yourself.
Go to the bathroom? There's no bathroom downstairs?
Trying to use that on me? If I've known you will be this arrogant, I should have just shot and killed you earlier.
Bian Tou, let me tell you!
I am being courteous with you for the sake of your boss. Don't bully others too much.
I am bullying you? You are climbing walls up to my boss's door and you are saying that I am bullying you?
I won't waste energy talking with you. Let's call Division Chief. Let him settle this.
Hey...Bian Tou, no need to do that.
Fine, you win.
Going already? Not going to the bathroom anymore?
Hope you die from holding it in!
Liu Meina forgot to lock it?
Or are Zeng Shu and his team doing some tricks?
I can't let something bad happen here.
Nothing bad must happen here. If something bad happens, it will be major.
I'll be having bad luck again.
This...nothing bad must happen here.
Don't let anything bad happen.

Bicheng? Why are you here?
Shanhai told me to come here to look for you. He said that he needs a car that will travel from Suzhou Bridge tonight.
Is he leaving? How about you? Are you leaving with him?
He didn't say. He probably is planning to send someone out.
Okay. I'll go arrange it right away.
He called me earlier at 10 pm.
He needs to get on a car at Suzhou Creek, Qiangjiajiao.
Okay.
The chicken feet are delicious.
Still not back?
Bian Tou, what's wrong with you? Why were you gone that long to just get a wallet?
That's right. Are we still playing or not?
- Not playing anymore. - Not playing? Then let's already settle the winnings earlier.
That's right. Hurry. Hurry.
Pay up.
Bian Tou, what's going on with you? You just lost some money but you look like you lost your soul.
Enough already. Eat some chicken feet and you will feel better after losing money.
- Here. - Weren't these also bought with my money?
Why are you looking at me?!
Not eating anymore. I'm going to the bathroom.
Hey...this...
This Bian Tou...really...
Brothers.
You are from Su Sanxing's team, right?
- Team Leader Tang, we are only following orders. - Yes.
- It's already so late. Go back early. - Okay.
- Cigarettes? - Sure. Thank you.
- You didn't bring any matches? - We didn't.
- Let me help you light it up. - Fire...oh, here.
Sorry to let you see that. But if they don't die, we will die.
I understand...
Get in the car.
It's fine.
I will stop the car near the division. You go inside and get the file then come back to find me.
Right? But I must tell you something.
- Say it. - You better keep watch of them well. I will take care of my part.
What you must do now is to cooperate with me.
- Hey! - You scared me to death!
It's so late, and Leader Zeng is not on duty. What are you two chatting about?
Come. Come. Tell me. Let's chat together.
Hey, say, Bian Tou,
are you looking for things to do? Aren't you interfering too much?
Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask.
- Ah Qiang, let's go. - Let's go.
I told you to stop being too nosy...
- Go! - Remember!
If I don't mind you, who will I mind? Causing trouble everyday.
Miss Liu.
Miss Liu, why are you here this late at night?
I am just getting something from my office and then I'll be leaving immediately.
- Let's go. Let me walk you upstairs. - No need. I am already very familiar with it. I can do it on my own.
- Where is your boss? - He is already asleep.
I'll go up now then.
- You really don't need me to accompany you? - No need. No need.
- That...the light upstairs is broken. Be careful, it's dark. - I know now.
What day is today? Ghosts and gods have all come out?
Turn around.
Team Leader Chen.
Is this for Tang Shanhai?
Are you two on the same side?
If you want to leave this place alive, truthfully tell me your plan.
We will leave Shanghai right away.
After Shanhai and I leave, you can be with Xu Bicheng.
It's so late. How will you leave?
Shanhai has a way.
What is it?
He found somebody to get a car. We will leave from Suzhou Creek, Qiangjiajiao,
and go through the mountains.
Hurry, lock the door.
Go to my office.
I need to call Bi Zhongliang right now.
If you really leave, I can't help you anymore.
I can let you go, but I still need to remain here.
I can't bear the crime of neglecting my duty,
so I must call Old Bi right now to say that you suspiciously came to the Operations Division.
Then, I will chase after you two.
This is also an act!
This is the only way I can safely send you on your way.
You only have two options now.
One, follow my instructions.
Two, I'll choke you to death right now!
If you're willing to obey me, blink three times.
You can go now.
I will arrive at Qiangjiajiao Bridge to send you off before the main forces arrive.
- Hello? - Hello, Old Bi?
Liu Meina just came to the office. She looked very rushed and took away something.
Do you think something's wrong?
What did she take away?
I think it's a cloth bag. Some documents are probably inside.
When did she leave?
Just now.
- Block her right away. I'll be there immediately. - Okay.
How is it? Did you get it?
Yes.
Chen Shen... He said he'll come find us.
Get on the car first.
Subtitles and Timing brought to you by the Gone with the Shirt Team @ Viki
- Block that person. Don't let him get in my way. - Okay.
Where are you going? What are you doing?
- Move away! - Do you want a fight? Don't move!
- Ah Qiang! - Move away! - Do you want a fight?
Where did he go?
He just drove off.
Boss is going to Mee Koo May to eat with a lady. If you have money, come along.
No, you--
When you went into the archives room, Chen Shen was already in there?
I think it was yesterday. I think he stole my keys yesterday.
How did he have time to steal your keys?
I think it was at the tailor shop yesterday
when I was trying on my cheongsam.
Aren't you two on the same side?
He said he'd inform Bi Zhongliang, and then pretend to pursuit us
to protect us as we leave.
Chen Shen didn't tell you to leave behind the Return to Zero Plan?
No, he gave it all to me.
Why are there two copies?
- Division Chief, why are you here? - Where are Chen Shen and Liu Meina?
They just left, one after the other.
Division Chief.
- Where's Su Sanxing? - He had an emergency and left.
Go find him immediately!
- Where did Team Leader Su go? - How would I know?
When did the lights in the hallway break?
Just tonight.
Look into it. Did they really break, or was it man-made?
Yes, Division Chief.
Where are you going?
Stay at the door.
Did Liu Meina steal the file that she's responsible for?
Liu Meina has been turned against us.
Stay in the car.
You've been using me. You are Sparrow.
I am not Sparrow. Also, you've been the one using me.
Don't tell me you don't want this.
I know you've helped me a lot.
Right now, the Communists and Nationalists are working together.
If you openly admit that you're Sparrow,
I can share this intelligence with you.
Otherwise, I can't be sure you're not here under Bi Zhongliang's order to trap me.
If Bi Zhongliang can't find us,
he will seal all piers and important roads.
If he sends people straight to your house,
and sees that Bicheng is home alone,
how do you plan to explain your whereabouts?
Do you really plan to abandon Bicheng and leave with her?
You should understand that without my help, it's hard for you to escape in one piece.
Even if you leave, what about Bicheng?
Thus, I suggest you hand it to me. First deal with the most urgent problem.
Tomorrow, I'll return it to you.
At the end of the day, we're still considered comrades in arms.
Looks like I have no other choice.
I don't want this copy. I want the one with Meina.
If my guess is correct,
this copy is the one Bi Zhongliang is using to confuse the public.
Meina has strong feelings for you. She would definitely help you.
Quickly consider it. Bi Zhongliang will catch up to us soon.
It's late. All cars leaving the city have already left.
If somebody owns a car or a boat, they can still leave.
- Zeng Shu. - Here.
- Take some men to seal all roads leading outside the city. - Yes.
Ah Qiang, let's go.
Bian Tou.
Take some men to thoroughly search the piers, train stations, railway platform, and ports.
Okay.
Call Tang Shanhai to gather some men to aid the Division forces.
I understand.
Give that copy to me.
He won't give it back to you.
I have no other choice right now.
Protect me, or else we all die together.
You are so considerate. You knew he wouldn't trust you and would request a swapping of the files.
Chen Shen is very cunning.
He's been pretending to be used by me. In reality, he's the one using me and Xu Bicheng.
If we leave like this, how will you hand this to your superiors?
Don't worry. I have a way.
Shanhai, are we really leaving Shanghai?
Yes. It's true.
It's like a dream.
Hello, Ms. Xu? I'm Liu Erbao.
Sorry for bothering you. There's an emergency at the Division. Please put Team Leader Tang on the phone.
Hello?
- Hello? - Hello? You can't hear me?
Hello?
I can't hear you! Hello? Who is this?
Hello?
Hello? Speak louder!
- Hello? - Hello?
Hello? Can you hear--
I'm Liu Erbao!
Hello?
Division Chief,
after I called the Tang household, they couldn't hear me.
When I called again, the line was busy.
- Immediately send Secretary Qian and some men to search for Tang Shanhai at his house. - Yes.
If Tang Shanhai isn't home, you know what to do.
Arrest Xu Bicheng.
- Go on. - Yes.
It's so late. Did you need something urgently?
- Keep this safe for me. Don't let anybody know. - Okay.
Meina,
wait here for me.
I'll go with you.
Don't worry. It's fine.
Send this woman away immediately, first to Ningbo, and then to Hong Kong.
Tell her that I will go find her.
She helped you get the intelligence, right?
Yes.
- Then, why are you still talking to her? - I lied to her.
In the future, tell her that I died and tell her to forget me.
This is too risky. You shouldn't let her live!
Just follow my orders. This is also Bicheng's wish.
Listen: send her away right now; I need to go home immediately.
If Bi Zhongliang comes to find me right now, Bicheng will be in trouble.
Okay.
Stop the car!
Did you possibly chase after them on your legs?
I drove here, but they ran off.
You can't even handle a woman like Liu Meina anymore?
She had an accomplice.
