Give me.
Guan,
a 1961 Lafite,
none for me?
I don't want you breaking the five prohibitions of the Ministry.
Fine...
Regardless,
Dong Qian deserved this.
Jiangzhou team got Feng Kun and solved the case.
Hu Qiang was charged for assault
instead of manslaughter.
So basically we're the one who gained nothing.
Nothing?
Did you know
Feng Kun didn't end up having the wine,
and I hate wasting.
There's a huge difference between 2016 and 1961.
Has Guan been like this lately?
What's with that attitude?
If you weren't pregnant,
I'd have reserved this whole car,
but...
I want to get reimbursed by Zhou Xun.
Do it.
No...
No, wait, Ya'nan.
-Listen. -We can't.
-We're in public. -What?
Command Center.
Surveillance is down.
Our agent may have been made.
Situation inside unknown. Request for rescue.
Command Center.
Critical situation. Request for rescue.
Standby.
-What? -Situation is unclear.
Imprudent action could ruin the mission.
Standby.
But inside...
This is Zhao Xincheng, entering from Point 2. Over!
Guan.
Come in, have a seat.
What is it?
Don't move.
You've been looking good lately.
Are you...
in love?
What are you saying?
What do you think? You're not young anymore.
You need a partner.
Zhou is...
a nice girl.
Think about it.
You must really hate Liu.
How does this concern him?
Is that all?
Come on...
This is serious.
Can't I talk about it?
It concerns your happiness. Why can't we talk about it?
It's important.
Come here, look.
These are all the clues
An Ting and Ye Fangzhou left.
They're all yours.
What's this? You want me to investigate?
You trust me?
Those two and the ones behind them,
related to your brother's case or not, are not good people.
From this standpoint,
I trust you.
You do?
Yes, because you're a good cop.
Why are we going to Haigang?
Male body found on Changxing Rd.
Coroners and tech, meet at the garage in 15 minutes.
Liu will handle the crime scene.
Confirm with coroners, but try to bring the body back for exam.
Let the asst. coroner and tech team handle the scene.
Roger that.
What were you saying?
You skipped a murder scene and have me come along.
Are we going to pick a fight with Chief Bai at Haigang?
Too much?
Under normal circumstances, yes you are.
But at least tell me what triggered this.
Get in first.
I've sent someone to talk to his mum.
His girlfriend contacted me.
He's been missing for almost 2 days.
I'm worried too,
so I have expanded the search.
After all these years, Zhao is a
veteran detective.
He should be fine.
I didn't want to alert you both.
When did he go missing, Chief Bai?
The night before last.
After work?
He was at Shuangyushu with two teams from the East District,
investigating a home burglary ring.
He didn't return after that.
They thought he went home.
Who saw him last?
It was...
Cao from the East District Team.
Did he have a gun on him?
About that... I'm not quite sure.
But don't worry,
we'll find him soon.
We're all brothers here.
We're all worried.
All right. Sorry for the trouble.
If you have any news...
I'll update you.
Goodbye then.
Hello, Liu Qiang?
Get me Cao Fa.
Guan, aren't we going to ask Cao what happened that night?
I don't think so. He won't be of any help.
Bai must have told him to corroborate the story.
What do you mean?
Bai was lying,
maybe because he wasn't prepared, it was obvious.
Lying?
Aside from the times he was taken aback,
it was the most obvious
when he, as a Chief, didn't know or care whether
Zhou was armed when he went missing during an operation.
That's right.
A missing gun is worse than a missing detective.
Based on his reaction, Zhao Xincheng probably
isn't missing,
and Bai knows where he is.
Then there's only one possibility.
He's on a classified mission.
Maybe it's so classified that Bai couldn't call the shots.
Which means he's transferred to the Bureau temporarily.
Let's wait a couple more days.
Maybe he'll show up by then.
If you really want to, ask the Bureau.
But if it's classified,
you may not get an answer.
Now that you mention it, I know who to ask.
Vice-Captain Liu.
Ya'nan, should you be out in the field like this?
Thanks for asking, Vice-Captain Liu. You came so how can I not?
Zhou Xun and Capt. Guan?
They went to Haigang District.
Why?
Vice-Captain Liu, we checked the victim's fingerprints.
He's a suspect on the run.
The victim is Ji Jie, 44, wanted for arms trafficking
early this year.
I see.
What do you have, Ya'nan?
Xu.
Come, Xu, give Vice-Captain Liu a report.
This isn't the murder scene.
The body was dumped.
Time of death is less than 48 hours
by a cut to the throat.
There is no wallet on him.
There's a watch mark on his left wrist,
but the watch is gone,
His middle finger ring and a necklace are also missing.
I see the mark from the ring on his finger.
But the necklace...
The slight redness and lesions on his clavicles
often indicate allergy to metal,
hence the deduction that he was wearing a necklace.
With a biopsy, I might even be able
to tell you his allergens.
All his belongings are gone.
Could it be... a robbery gone bad?
Vice-Captain Liu,
a dumped body from
a robbery gone bad?
Get more samples.
What is this?
Sit down.
-Captain Guan. -Okay.
You've seen him now.
The Commander said no communication
and no revealing his status.
Is this legal?
None of your business!
If he broke the law, follow the usual procedure.
It's solitary confinement?
I've told you, it's none of your business!
This isn't the army.
It's against protocol.
This is illegal detention!
-You said you... -Are you a reciter?
What? You want to shoot us?
Tell me, is he wrong?
Is he wrong? Tell me!
Talk to the Commander if you have a problem,
but orders are orders!
You've seen him, now get out!
Zhou,
stay out of this.
Leave me a cigarette.
What now?
Light it for him.
Here.
You guys go ahead.
Open the door.
-Sun. -What now?
I'm sorry, buddy.
Interrogation Room 1, Zhao Xincheng escaped!
Crime Prevention Case Analysis.
What's up with you lately?
Did playing tag team with your brother mess up your brain?
What a rare guest.
Wait. I need to wash my face
and tidy up. Now.
Wait, let me wash my face and tidy up.
My hair, look.
Long Legs.
Let me know when you are coming next time, so I can tidy up.
I saw this when I was doing inventory last night.
Nice.
You know where to hide it.
What shampoo do you use?
It smells nice.
It's not your style.
Stop! Don't move.
Go ahead, keep running.
Hold him down!
My gun, where is it?
Idiot. Who'd run for the main entrance?
Take him back!
Take him away.
Sir.
Is there a reason for the forceful measures?
Are you Guan Hongfeng?
You are...
Come with me.
Please come in.
Chief Shi.
It's been a while.
Zhou Xun. Take a seat.
Sure.
Captain Guan,
we should be considered old colleagues.
Chief Shi.
Shi Guangling, former district director of Political Division.
It's only been a few years,
now he's Deputy Chief of the Bureau.
I've heard all about you. It just slipped my mind.
Power and politics don't interest Guan,
and we usually send Liu Changyong for meetings.
No wonder you haven't met.
Captain Guan is invested in working.
I've heard about that.
Zhou Xun,
I didn't let you see him so you could make trouble for me.
No...
What I'm about to say
is highly confidential.
Base on Dr. Gao and the tech team's scene exams,
the directions of our investigation are,
first, canvas the scene,
which is being done by the local police units.
Since the body was likely dumped late at night,
the chance of finding any witness is slim.
Second, based on the tire marks found
at the scene,
the width and wheelbase of
the vehicle is larger than the average sedan.
We believe it may be a premium car
or a van.
We can get surveillance footage from the Traffic Control,
but due to the time lapsed
and the limited number of cameras nearby,
it would take more time and effort
than useful results.
Finally,
based on the victim Ji Jie's background
and special agents' interviews,
we should find out if he was
involved in arms trafficking or any related incidents
before his murder.
Then we will investigate the buyers and sellers.
We need to find leads to his murder.
But based on our resources, we can't carry out
all three options at once.
So we need Vice-Capt. Liu's guidance.
What's the first one?
The first is to call Zhou Xun and Captain Guan back to take over.
Shi Guangling told us about the case in such great detail.
Are you two close?
I was sent to various task forces for some
peripheral work before I took over your position as Captain.
I didn't know that.
Of course not.
It was classified.
Superiors aren't notified of these impromptu transfers.
You wouldn't know.
What kind of operations?
We never knew the details,
only our own tasks
and nothing else.
Forget about that.
Are you confident
about taking this task
from Shi?
No cigarette this time, right?
Wipe that smug look off your face.
Listen to Guan.
We were briefed.
Honestly,
if it were me,
I might've handled it worse than you.
But Shi Guangling's orders also made sense.
Yes, the mission comes first.
In this field,
we have to be prepared to face the danger.
You must know
it took over a year to set up this operation.
Many lives hinged on its success.
What could you have done even if you'd escaped?
I would've found him.
The task force is looking for him.
What can you do with no leads and no support?
Now, I've made a deal with Shi Guangling.
We'll work with them to
find this undercover.
And get the operation back on track.
If we managed to do that, your worry should cease to exist.
As well as the disciplinary action.
So behave yourself.
Guan, I didn't think...
Save it.
I'm knee-deep in this now.
Trust us,
even if you don't trust Shi Guangling.
I swear, no one from the Bureau
can find this guy if Guan can't.
I sure can't.
I'm serious.
You? Undercover?
Are you kidding?
You got a better idea?
With all due respect, Guan,
infiltration isn't like solving a case.
That undercover--
What's his alias?
-Editor. -Right.
This Editor,
he must've taken a long time to infiltrate
Meng Zhongmou's arms trafficking ring,
and his alias must be flawless.
You are the former captain of Changfeng District Team.
The whole world knows who you are.
Don't forget,
I resigned from the police for my wanted brother.
I may be holding a grudge.
Fine...
Even if you could fool them like a bad soap opera,
where'd you start?
Meng Zhongmou's entire ring has disappeared.
How'd you find them?
I'll think of a way,
but I need you to work with me.
Based on the incident last night,
they're cautious and have great counter intelligence
measures coming from Myanmar.
Our usual tactics won't work.
Wonderful. Once you infiltrated them,
you'd vanish into thin air, and I'd be trying to find you both.
But regardless,
I think it's worth the risk.
From a certain angle,
this batch of guns might
be the decommissioned batch An Teng was in charge of and stole.
If you put it that way, that's progress in An Teng's case.
Plus the body from Changxing Road,
they'll all fall on me with you gone.
I can't do everything.
And your safety?
Don't worry. I'll be fine.
Oh, my, where did this confidence come from?
If he's really going to do it...
I think his confidence
all came from you.
What are you talking about?
We all pitch in.
From what I can see,
he's not just trying to find the undercover,
but also An Teng's gun.
It's all for the sake
of clearing Hongyu's name.
That man they mentioned,
Meng...
-Meng... -Meng Zhongmou,
originally from Yunnan,
smuggled into Myanmar and began arms trafficking.
One of the largest arms dealers in Southeast Asia,
has an older brother and sister.
His brother, a drug addict and dealer in Yunnan, was killed by the Armed Police.
His sister, a human trafficker, was caught and sentenced to life.
I heard she's been transferred to a mental institution.
In comparison, Meng Zhongmou is quite successful.
In the underworld,
everyone in the firearm business
knows him as "San Ge".
I just don't know why he's in Jingang.
How does one usually
get in touch with someone like him?
To borrow the Trident of Poseidon,
we first need intel from his minions.
Guan,
I've gone above and beyond for you.
Your brother's case is a done deal.
It's about principle.
Zhou Xun,
climb the ladder however you want.
I've been here long enough. Where's the file?
Be patient.
Cut the crap.
Give me my brother's file or zip it.
Enough! You think we can't solve cases without you?
Take a look in the mirror.
What would your clearance rate be without me?
Guan, don't say this and ruin our friendship.
We aren't friends.
Captain Zhou,
what happened?
What happened?
I wasn't out for long. Can't you at least hold down the fort?
He's so arrogant!
The hell with you!
Let's go.
What's going on?
You two!
To my office!
What are you looking at? Don't you have work to do?
Wang, take two units and monitor Guan Hongfeng's home.
Report all his activities.
Don't lose him, understand?
Here. Put everything aside for now.
Go to this address, check it out and get back to me.
Remember it's confidential.
Also, Guan is no longer a consultant. You're on tech team now.
I'll sort it out later.
-How did... -This is...
Can't you knock?
Ji's autopsy.
What's this attitude with your superiors?
Zhou Xun, I don't care why you're yelling but I'm the
Chief Coroner.
We're in the same rank.
You're taking it out on me? Think again.
Comparing rank with your captain?
I won't tolerate any attitude, veteran or not.
What is wrong with you?
Say that again?
I said, are you crazy?
You'll use this kind of authority to lead us?
Get Xu to redo this autopsy.
Gao Ya'nan, you're suspended!
-Get out! -Fine.
I'm tired of working for an ass. Get Xu yourself!
Get moving!
Close the door!
Everything seems normal from the traffic surveillance.
It should be safe.
Are you sure about going alone, Feng?
Just some thugs.
It should be fine.
The area been assessed?
Didn't we just do it?
Are you worried
we'll play into Zhou Xun's hands and
he has an ulterior motive?
If I could find Meng Zhongmou soon,
he wouldn't keep me between two fires.
But hard to say now.
I thought you two already agreed on how to play this.
That didn't include Ya'nan's suspension.
I just found out.
He also has our home under surveillance.
Shit! Is he trying to make us dig a hole
and bury ourselves in it?
FENGLU ALUMINUM
Shopkeeper.
Hello. What do you need?
Is Li Chuan here?
Li, someone's here.
Who is it? Check carefully.
Hello.
I need some stuff.
Take a look around. Company supplies?
Or home renovation?
I need...
something special.
What do you mean?
Conflicts between superiors are complicated.
We just follow orders. Don't think too much about it.
How did Captain Zhou and Mr. Guan get to this point?
It's unbelievable.
I think it's here.
No wonder this key looks familiar.
It's evidence from An Ting's belonging.
So this was An Ting's home?
I guess.
Search the living room and bathroom.
I'll do the study and bedroom.
Hey, he's out.
Looks like he failed.
What do you think?
How do you know?
Wanna bet?
Fine.
If he didn't succeed, date my brother.
Success?
That Li Chuan didn't seem to understand what I said at all.
His expressions and actions seemed to be lying,
but no matter what I said, he played the good citizen.
What should we do then?
Monitor this spot for selling stolen goods.
If we catch him red-handed,
have him arrested
and try to make him our informant.
Then we'd get the chance to investigate further.
Give me your phone, Feng.
Why?
Hurry up.
Don't be reckless. Infiltration...
Isn't about playing it safe.
You need to change.
What for?
No need. He knows my face.
It's me, Mr. Guan.
Go ahead.
I got something, I don't know who to tell it to.
Capt. Zhou sent Zhao Qian and I to search An Teng's place,
but we didn't find anything there.
However, the place was unusually clean,
as if someone cleaned it just before we came there.
Also...
Also what?
Qian is acting strange.
What do you mean?
An Ting's key ring held many keys.
But she knew exactly which one to use.
After we went in, she let me search the living room,
while she went to the bedroom
and the study.
Then what?
The problem is, from the entryway,
the study and bedroom around the corridor aren't even visible.
How did she know this is a two-bedroom apartment?
Okay.
I understand.
Are you really leaving the team, Mr. Guan?
Let's talk later.
Pull out that half tooth if it feels uncomfortable.
A crooked mouth looks bad too.
It's fine now.
It's fine. It's straight now.
So? Still upset?
Captain Zhou kicked Mr. Guan out for no reason.
It makes no sense.
After I saw you off at the train station last time,
Captain Liu
brought me in for questioning.
It made no sense either.
Why did he do that?
Why?
Maybe because he never liked me.
Speaking of which,
Captain Zhou was probably using Captain Guan more.
It wouldn't do him any good to kick Captain Guan out for real.
Could it be some other reasons?
I don't know.
The fight seemed to be over Mr. Guan's brother's case.
It's more unbelievable
that Captain Zhou completely lost it after Mr. Guan left.
He put Mr. Guan and his home under surveillance.
and suspended Dr. Gao.
If he takes me to see another idiot,
I'd knock out your other half tooth.
No... It won't happen.
We're going to see Jin Shan. He is Meng's second-in-command.
We all know him. He's the one.
Really?
It's me.
Open the door...
You are Guan?
You've got skills.
You're Jin Shan?
What's up?
I came to partner with you.
Don't move...
It's a profitable proposition.
What a face of class warfare.
What?
He's lying.
He's here for Editor.
