In the Name of People
Episode 52
What's up sister?
Ruilong, something is wrong, you got tricked!
Tricked? By who, Qi Tongwei or Gao Yuliang?
Neither, it's Sha Ruijin!
He's the one playing this game of Handong!
Dad wants you to run ASAP and never return!
Central is planning big moves against Handong!
I... I see!
Proc. director Ji, Zhao Ruilong wants to run, what do we do?
Give me a sec, I'll tell you now!
Chief Qi, that...
old Du called me, there's an emergency in Hong Kong.
Just like before, arrange your men at Luezhou airport,
I'll leave from here.
Ruilong...
You just got back from Hong Kong, now you leave again?
Can't help, old Du needs me urgently!
Ruilong...
Stop playing me, OK? What's going on really?
Aren't we brothers?
Look at the situation, can't you be honest with me?
My 2nd sister just called me...
She said Hou Liangping and all the things are a trap!
Sha Ruijin is behind it!
Also, central is planning a big move against Handong!
My old man told me to run ASAP and never return!
Got it?!
Chief Sha, we got an emergency!
Somebody tipped off Zhao Ruilong!
I don't want them to pull off another Ding Yizhen together!
Do we arrest them now?
Why do we wait, we can't play by the book now!
Secretary Tian is right, we must act now!
Agreed!
I agree, we must act now!
OK, since we all agree, we close the web now!
OK!
Little Xiao, the committee decided, arrest Zhao Ruilong now!
Zhao Ruilong!
You are arrested!
Cuff him!
Take him away!
Qi Tongwei is yours, but be careful.
He's police chief, with strong anti-surveillance ability!
He also has a gun! - More than one gun!
According to our intel, he has at least 3 guns!
You must anticipate the unexpected, he won't surrender!
Relax!
OK, I see, I'll report now!
Chief Sha! Zhao Ruilong is caught!
Chief Sha, I just got a call from Beijing,
central has "double-suspended" Zhao Lichun!
I'm not paranoid, the situation is worse than I thought!
The provincial chief joined the fight!
Now what, shall we find secretary Gao Yuliang?
Nobody can help us now, give me your phone.
Zhao Lichun can't save himself.
Gao Yuliang is also day-to-day.
They must've locked onto my phone call with Zhao Ruilong!
Leave now!
Hurry!
All hands, to action!
Who's that? - Old Xiao, I'm Lue Liang!
Old Lue, who issued you this warrant?
Is it so bad? It must be wrong!
How can it be wrong, you know what you've done!
Let's skip the bullshit!
Old Lue, I know Hou Liangping's matter!
I was over-enthusiastic, right?
I know it, I just spoke to secretary Gao.
Secretary Gao said, after a meal and apology,
we are still comrades, right?
Come on old Xiao, when would you ever wake up?
Is it a matter of apology?
It's a life-and-death struggle!
Take him! - Old Lue, what's going on?
Old Lue, can I call secretary Gao? Old Lue!
What are you doing little comrade?
Hello Prof. Liang, relax!
We look for Qi Tongwei, not you!
I knew... this day would come!
He's finished.
Do you know where he is now?
I really don't!
He hasn't been here for a month now!
OK, move out!
Prof. Liang, sorry for the disturbance, bye!
Looking for our chief?
Where's Qi Tongwei?
Why would he tell me where he went?
You don't know or don't wanna tell?
I don't know, and I don't wanna tell!
Cuff him and take him away!
Boss Gao, how's it going?
Good, and you?
I'm not!
You almost made me cry first!
I didn't wanna do it, really!
Boss Gao is still eloquent, let's talk somewhere else!
I knew this day would come!
If you knew, why did you do it?
BTW, did my schoolmate Qi Tongwei come to sing today?
Nope, I think he flew to Hong Kong for work!
A pity!
I wanted to sing "Battle of Wits" with you again!
"Battle of Wits"?
My voice is broken!
You are not giving me any face!
Get in!
Liangping, you were right, this woman is indeed special!
See how calm she is!
Like an invited guest!
Is Qi Tongwei really not at Shanshui Manor?
She said no, but Zhao Donglai's men went to check.
Commissioner, Qi Tongwei is not here!
He's not at home or office...
I don't believe he can fly away!
Search again! - Yes sir!
Also, check his last phone calls!
Yes sir!
Boss Gao, we meet again!
Yeah, it wasn't easy!
You must be director Lu!
I "must be" director Lu?
You are funny!
I've been busy lately, so I don't remember very well!
Director Lu, please excuse me!
But it shouldn't be, we've met a few times,
and chatted nicely each time!
You forgot me so quickly, I'm sad!
Is it "selective forgetfulness"?
What trick is this?
Director Lu, I'm already here.
What tricks can I possibly have?
I wait for your move!
Liangping,
looks like your 1st lieutenant Lu Yike is struggling!
Don't worry!
You have me at key moments!
Gao Xiaoqin is special because of her mental capacity!
She's more difficult than average women!
It's Zhao Donglai!
Hello, Donglai!
Liangping, are you questioning Gao Xiaoqin?
Just began! - Hurry!
Ask her where Qi Tongwei is!
I'll ask for you.
Ask her where Qi Tongwei is!
I told you, Qi Tongwei really went to Hong Kong for work!
Bullshit, we sealed off the border and ports!
Nobody on our blacklist can leave!
Zhao Donglai, don't get mad!
When I breach her, I'll tell you immediately!
Find your schoolmate first!
You know he's most dangerous right now!
I know!
Chief Sha said if I find out about Qi Tongwei, tell him ASAP!
Let me tell you a recent intel too.
Qi Tongwei has a sniper rifle!
What, he got a sniper rifle?!
Good!
We acted fast, everyone except Qi Tongwei got caught!
I worry about him the most!
But he escaped!
So, he's armed with a sniper rifle?
Yeah!
This rifle allegedly stayed in his car trunk!
How could this happen?!
Why would a police chief need a sniper rifle?!
He's the police chief, can the police armory refuse him?
Sniper rifle, what is it?
A long-distance assault weapon!
Have you never seen him wielding it?
No, I only know his pistols, and he got more than one!
Not pistol, but rifle!
With a target scope!
I've never seen a target scope!
Director Lu it's true, I've never seen it!
Before,
I planned to ask over Gao Yuliang after the meeting,
to have him call and lure out Qi Tongwei to a meeting.
But Zhao Lichun alerted his son,
they prepared to run before we finished our meeting!
Can Gao Yuliang reach Qi Tongwei?
I asked him, he said no.
Qi Tongwei never answered.
Where is Gao Yuliang now?
He visited Chen Yanshi at hospital, now he's back home.
You sure he's at home? - Yes!
Commissioner Zhao, Luezhou sent us intel.
Qi Tongwei and Gao Xiaoqin's phones were found in a villa!
The phone stays... but not the person, right?
Right, it's obviously Qi Tongwei's setup!
Gao Xiaoqin is caught in Jingzhou, he must be here too!
Search the whole city!
Also coordinate with the procurators,
and question Zhao Ruilong, Xiao Gangyu, Liu Xinjian,
and Chen Qingquan!
Let's see if any accomplice knows where Qi Tongwei is!
Yes sir!
I've been inside for a long time,
I really don't know about chief Qi's safe houses!
Before I came in, we also played on our own.
But I know he likes to play golf!
You can search the golf fields nearby!
I... I only know this much!
I really don't know Qi Tongwei's whereabouts!
He's very cautious, he never tells me about his secret lairs!
At the hotel in Luezhou, I called him the last time.
I don't even know where he was!
Qi Tongwei is very cunning!
He specializes in feint attacks!
We had two coordinated operations,
I know he's very professional!
You ask me where he is... how would I know?
I have nothing to deduce upon!
Regarding chief Qi, you must ask his mistress Gao Xiaoqin!
She knows best.
I really don't know!
I confessed everything, even crimes that deserve death!
If I know chief Qi's whereabouts, why would I not tell?
Since you don't know where Qi Tongwei is, let's switch topic.
Boss Gao, now you sit here.
Should you not reflect upon:
on your way to success, did you rob by force or trickery?
Does your wealth contain people's blood and tears?
Did I even discuss that with director Lu?
You forgot, but I haven't!
You said back then:
"this is an age where you must fight to win!"
"If you don't make others bleed and weep,"
"they'll make you", remember?
I remember now, I did say it!
My memory is very bad lately,
I'm sorry, director Lu!
Proc. director... - Hmm?
Something feels wrong!
Something wrong? What have you found?
She's not the Gao Xiaoqin I remember!
Did we catch the wrong person?
Why do you think like that, tell me how you feel.
I know Gao Xiaoqin, her eyes emanate ruthlessness!
But her eyes look too soft!
And when she came in, she didn't recognize Lu Yike,
and asked "are you director Lu?"
She also forgot all of Lu Yike's penetrating questions!
If she's not Gao Xiaoqin then... who is she?
Maybe I'm too sensitive...
I suggest we stop the questioning first!
OK, let's stop.
Stop the questioning!
Lin Huahua, leave for now, I'll take over.
Is the atmosphere too tense?
Need a break?
Alright!
Chief Hou!
We haven't even started!
Thanks chief Hou!
No need, we're old friends!
How about... we listen to music?
OK!
What shall we listen?
You decide what we listen!
How about...
I suggest... we sing "Battle of Wits"!
To sing "Battle of Wits"... we need a Commander Hu!
Shall we just listen to music?
It's alright, director Lu can substitute!
Play "Battle of Wits"!
Prof. Liang, Qi Tongwei has disappeared,
he's armed too.
Therefore I'm asking you to help us analyze,
where can he be?
Where can he be?
It's either Shanshui Manor,
or that lakeside villa in Luezhou!
No, he's at neither places!
Please think again, does he have other spots?
Then I wouldn't know!
Prof. Liang, can I ask you something?
Please... I got nothing to hide now.
As I remember, you are a purist about emotions.
How can you stand Qi Tongwei doing such things outside?
Why don't you divorce?
Without divorce, he's the only one bullying me...
With divorce, everybody will bully me!
Life is like an act...
I never knew my act with Qi Tongwei...
would end so hastily!
There's no flower or applause!
Only endless booing!
What's left to live for?
Don't be so pessimistic!
Perhaps you should feel lucky,
that you know very little of Qi Tongwei's stuff!
Yeah, it saved me!
Otherwise, I may get caught with him!
Or he'd silence me!
Seriously...
fortune and misfortune go hand in hand...
This woman...
... is rather special!
Diao Deyi, what devilish intentions does he have?
This little Diao is not giving her any face!
This dimwit, is actually a wind-shielding wall!
She's neither humble nor pushy...
I set up my oven, and boil my teas.
Open up the tables, and greet folks from everywhere.
Everyone here is a guest, I live on my eloquence.
When we meet I smile, after they leave I won't think twice!
As soon as you leave, the tea goes cold!
Proc. director!
Little Lin, they sing very well, you hear!
Did you notice anything?
Nope!
Your chief Hou won't get paranoid for no reason!
He must've noticed something!
What "special relations" do you mean?
... devilish intentions...
This dim-wit, is actually a wind-shielding wall...
Are they men of Jiang, or men of Wang?
... and boil my teas...
Open up the tables, and greet folks from everywhere.
Everyone here is a guest, I live on my eloquence...
What "special relations" do you mean...
Stop!
You...
are not Gao Xiaoqin!
You can't fool me!
I sang "Battle of Wits" with her twice,
her vocal technique is totally different!
Stop acting now!
If I'm not Gao Xiaoqin, who am I then?
That's what I'm gonna ask you!
Gao Xiaoqin is involved in serious crimes,
if you help her escape, you must know the consequences!
But... if I'm not Gao Xiaoqin,
then why did you arrest me?
I'm not Gao Xiaoqin, I didn't commit crimes!
Can I go home now?
Sorry, before we clear this up,
you must stay here, can't go anywhere!
Surprisingly...
Gao Xiaoqin has a twin sister!
But it's not in their family registry!
Don't forget who the provincial police chief is!
That seems too flawless!
They anticipated today so long ago?!
She left us a decoy, but ran away herself!
Where do you think she is?
She wants to leave, must be at the airport!
Act immediately!
Yes sir!
Hello, your passport please!
Sorry, please take off your sunglasses!
Excuse me!
Boss Gao!
Leaving like this is too low-key!
So?
Does chief Hou wanna see me off?
Our chief wants to invite you back to sing "Battle of Wits'!
Director Lu,
didn't I leave someone to sing with your chief?
Not as good as you!
I prefer to sing with old friends!
So in the chief's mind,
I'm still your old friend!
Should I feel honored then?
Don't be so polite!
OK, come with us!
Thanks!
Chief Qi, you've met this beauty before?
I know her, my mentor's female companion!
Hello, Xiaofeng!
In that case you must call her "shi niang"! (means mentor's wife)
Nah, she'll get old if I call her like that!
Right, Xiaofeng? - Chief Qi! - Hmm?
Don't listen to boss Zhao's joke, I'm not Xiaofeng!
I'm Xiaoqin, Xiaofeng and I are twins!
I'm her big sister!
Impossible!
Why impossible?
It's a pair of beauties!
The old saying goes "beauties only exist in heavenly realm",
that's why I introduce her to my bro Qi!
Chief Qi...
Let me give you a toast!
Nice to meet you!
Chief Sha, secretary Tian,
nobody expected that Gao Xiaoqin has a sister,
who moved to Hong Kong!
These sisters are twins? - Hmm!
Hou Liangping noticed during yesterday's questioning!
And?
Her sister in Hong Kong came back to replace her!
This bureau chief is something!
Donglai, do you admit he's better?
Chief Sha, this time, he wins!
It must be!
Chief Sha, secretary Tian, do we begin? - Yes!
Liangping, let's begin!
Boss Gao, your sister Gao Xiaofeng,
made a not-so-small joke with us!
Chief Hou, how does it concern my sister?
So your sister's act yesterday,
was planned by you and Qi Tongwei?
I must declare this: my sister Gao Xiaofeng,
is a citizen of Hong Kong.
You have no reason to keep her here!
Besides, she's never involved in Shanshui Group's activities!
She's just a housewife,
with no criminal record in Hong Kong or mainland!
Director Lu...
You guys came to arrest people at my sister's hotel.
You made me follow before asking who I am.
If I don't follow, that's resisting arrest!
A law-abiding Hong Kong citizen won't dare to resist arrest!
Do you agree? - Skip the small talk!
Just tell us why you came back at this time.
I... visit my sister.
I come back each year!
Of course this time, it's a surprise...
Really, is it really surprising?
You sister Gao Xiaoqin planned this!
No!
Actually this happened many times before!
It happened often both in Hong Kong and mainland!
Sometimes...
not even Qi Tongwei can tell apart me and my sister!
Your sister's matter aside, let's talk about Qi Tongwei!
Qi Tongwei has a sniper rifle in his car, do you know?
I know, he borrowed it from the police armory for hunting!
He likes guns, right?
Chief Hou, you should know if he likes to play with guns!
In Shanshui Manor's shooting range,
you played guns togethers!
But there's one thing you may not know...
If Qi Tongwei shoots with both hands,
he can hit 10 moving targets in 10 seconds!
Boss Gao, are you spooking me?
Spooking you?
I don't think you know so little of your school brother!
Of course I know him!
After an all-nighter, still nothing?
Chief Sha, if we have leads,
then we won't question Gao Xiaoqin!
The night was wasted, we questioned her sister Gao Xiaofeng!
Now let's guess...
where could Qi Tongwei be?
Good, let's guess together: where is Qi Tongwei?
Come on chief Hou, stop guessing!
Hurry up, chief Sha and secretary Tian are watching!
Even I feel anxious for you!
Sit!
We are not anxious, you should stay calm too!
Don't interrupt their thoughts!
OK.
Take it easy!
Qi Tongwei was a poor boy...
coming this far ain't easy!
Therefore he won't easily abandon his possessions!
As soon as Chen Hai got hit,
I deduced it was him, because he won't give up!
Whoever blocks his way,
he'll clean them up, right?
Chief Hou,
I know nothing about that matter!
Then you must know this matter!
Qi Tongwei wanted to change his fate,
he knelt down publicly on the courtyard of Han-Uni,
and proposed to a professor 10 years his senior!
Listen to your tone!
Knelt down publicly!
So what?
Even Han Xin crawled under someone's crotch! (a famous Chinese general from 200 BC)
Let me tell you!
I admire his courage of kneeling down publicly!
If he didn't kneel down,
then me and him won't have had the romance of our lives!
Since you have this romance,
you must know his lonesome pride!
Of course!
Tongwei...
He wants to "beat the sky by half a stone"!
Beat the sky by half a stone...
Then why would he need you to tip him off?
Chief Hou,
I dialed the wrong number!
Do you know what he'll do after seeing your message?
Confess now, where is he?!
Somewhere that only you two know?
A place you hoard your wealth!
Where we hoard wealth...
He's a filial son, I think he must visit...
his 80-year old mom!
So you mean... he'll go to his hometown Linxian?
Why not? - No, he's a veteran scout!
He must know we'll wait for him at Linxian!
If he goes there now, there will be a blood bath!
Would he jump into a trap knowingly?
He won't!
He'll visit his mom after things died down!
But not now!
But no matter where he is,
do you think Qi Tongwei can escape?
With his lonesome pride, can he accept this outcome?!
Don't you worry he may kill himself?
He'll never kill himself!
He's not someone who gives up easily! - Right!
He plays this game with his life!
He also takes wins and losses seriously!
How do you know he must lose?!
Besides, if he must spend his life to face a losing game,
isn't it even more miserable?
Boss Gao, not giving up huh?
Do you wanna see the man you love losing his life?
What kind of love is yours?
Love beyond life!
All of you... Gao Yuliang, Liang Lu...
Be honest, which one of you doesn't disdain Qi Tongwei?
I tell you, only I know what kind of man Tongwei is!
Only I know his lonesome pride!
Only I know his hardships, sadness and troubles!
There are troubles and regrets in all kinds of life!
It's no excuse for crimes!
If you love Qi Tongwei, you must stop his evil deeds!
He's armed, he'll hurt himself as well as others!
You must care for your kid even if you don't care for yourself!
You know we have a kid?
Of course!
Gao Xiaoqin, we are both parents.
If you tell me where Qi Tongwei is,
I can assure you this: I'll meet him in person,
and do my best to bring him back!
If you stay silent, then I cannot help!
Nobody can help Qi Tongwei, only death awaits him!
Have you ever thought?
If he dies, your kid will be without a dad!
Have you considered the trauma for your kid?!
It's an irreparable loss for your kid!
If you tell me where he is, it counts as cooperation.
You have a chance to leave jail early, and raise your kid!
Can you promise on what you just said?
I promise!
Me and him...
We decided a few spots...
