The Thunder
Director Ma Yunbo has just assumed office.
I can understand that he wants to establish his prestige.
But there is another way of saying it.
Namely, he came here for the position of director.
But he succumbed to the deputy position.
So he wanted to do something
in order to prove himself as soon as possible.
Did you investigate the case of Cai Sanmao?
Yes, I did.
Zhou Kai and I.
We were partners then.
Was there any specific evidence
that Cai Sanmao produced drugs?
There was a clue
and some indirect evidence.
I asked Cai Yongqiang
to adopt technical detection
by monitoring Cai Sanmao’s phone.
But he refused to do that.
For this reason I,
for this reason I quarreled with him,
but I still arrested Cai Sanmao afterwards.
However, within two days,
Cai Yongqiang released him.
Therefore, you were unhappy about that.
Any normal person would feel unhappy about that.
I would like to ask all of you
what’s the function of the Public Security Bureau.
The Public Security Bureau is not the Bureau of Civil Affairs,
much less of a charity agency.
It is the essential component of the state apparatus.
It fulfills the task of preventing and fighting against crime.
Director Ma.
Can I explain?
Go ahead.
The killer who killed Cai Sanmao
has been brought to justice last June.
According to his statement,
conflicts and accumulated grievances have been long-standing
between the first branch of the clan in Tangtou Village and the third.
Due to the unclear ownership of the homestead,
the two branches, within two years,
have fought with arms in large scale and small scale for thirteen times.
In order to teach a lesson to the third branch of the clan,
people from the first branch framed
Cai Sanmao, the son of the leader of the third branch,
saying that he produced drugs.
I understand what you said.
You mean the case was caused by the clan conflicts.
Am I right?
Cai Yongqiang!
Can you guarantee by tapping your chest
that Cai Sanmao
simply died from an accidental crime of passion?
Those drug traffickers in Dongshan are too arrogant, too savage,
defying the laws of our country.
How can this be tolerated?
I, Ma Yunbo,
can draw the conclusion today.
That severe situation of Dongshan right now
is closely related with the Narcotics Control
Brigade of Dongshan Public Security Bureau
which doesn’t fulfill its duty.
You, Cai Yongqiang,
are also to blame.
As soon as Ma Yunbo assumed office,
he pointed out your fault in front of all of the officers.
Did you feel wronged or angry?
I must admit what he said is reasonable.
Considering the special relationship between Li Fei and Ma Yunbo,
will you treat him differently
or regard him with special attention?
Can I refuse to answer this question?
About the case of Cai Sanmao,
what else do you want to say?
We worked for more than a month
and quelled an armed fight
which could happen at any time.
Finally, the killer was brought to justice.
With the charge of manslaughter,
he was sentenced to three years in prison and put on probation for two years.
Is this your duty in the Narcotics Control Brigade?
At the grassroots level,
social stability is often overwhelming.
The grassroots Public Security Bureau
works more on settling disputes.
The settlement of disputes represents the working capacity.
Many civilians in Dongshan
will evaluate the cardres’ ability on this.
No matter how he justifies his behaviors,
he,
Zhou Kai,
and Chen Zili
are the protectors of Cai Sanmao.
I can understand the reasons you have mentioned,
but the reasons sound far-fetched.
Fine.
Let me tell you.
The most important thing is
Cai Sanmao was the informant we developed secretly.
We indeed doubted then
a gang in Tangtou Village was producing drugs secretly.
However, there is a lack of evidence.
Therefore, we developed Cai Sanmao
as our informant.
Cai Sanmao also said yes.
In the Narcotics Control Brigade,
even in the whole Dongshan Public Security Bureau,
only Chen Zili, Zhou Kai and I
knew this.
However, Li Fei acted without permission at that time,
arresting Cai Sanmao on the spot on a charge of trafficking drugs.
It caught us unprepared.
As a remedy afterwards,
we found an excuse and released Cai Sanmao.
Yet half a month later,
when there was an opera show during the Spring Festival,
Cai Sanmao was beaten to death on site by Cai
Daquan from the first branch of the clan.
We haven’t collected any evidence that Tangtou Village produces drugs.
Therefore, the death of Cai Sanmao
landed us in a very passive position.
I can sense,
after that event,
Li Fei had bias against me.
So after the case of Cai Sanmao,
you got bias against Cai Yongqiang.
Actually, it’s not the case.
Before Director Ma came to office,
I sometimes had some disagreements with Cai Yongqiang.
But they are all on the issue, not the individual.
Not until Director Ma
at the mobilization meeting of the Narcotics Control Brigade,
talked about the case of Cai Sanmao
which I reported to him,
I was totally isolated by members of the brigade.
They thought I was the informer,
sneering and jeering at me.
This is what the Dongshan people like.
Even if they disagree with each other .
in face of threat from outside,
they tend to cling to each other and close ranks.
Inside the Narcotics Control Brigade,
what's the percentage of the local officers from Dongshan?
More than 80%.
However, because of the specialty of the job,
the bureau would deploy some officers from other places.
Chen Zili was transferred from troops,
but locals from Dongshan have accounted for the vast majority.
After that meeting,
Director Ma developed
an action which lasted for three months to crack down on drug trafficking.
The results of that action,
were witnessed by all
Ever since Director Ma came to Dongshan,
the drug dealing share of Dongshan and Longping District
has decreased year by year.
The title of “The key drug-remediation area of the country”
which has existed for two years
was removed.
Li Fei.
Are you all right?
Yang Liu.
Chen Ke.
Long time no see.
Why do you come to me?
Is Bao Xing here?
I have broken up with him for one year.
Could you please help me?
Have some drink!
Thank you.
Why don’t you go to find his elder sister?
It was his sister who gave me your address.
Why do you want to find Bao Xing?
He made a nude photo of me by Photoshop,
And sent it to my boyfriend
and threatened him.
He can do this.
Bao Xing, this guy,
would like to ruin everyone’s family.
Lin Xiaoli.
What happened to you?
Fight.
And I lost.
When you grow up,
what kind of person do you want to be?
I want to be just like you.
Sit down.
In your eyes,
what kind of person is Uncle Dong?
You can do anything you want.
All of the people respect you
and are scared of you.
Do you know about Uncle Dong?
Do you know what kind of things
Uncle Dong is doing?
I don’t care about anything else.
If I can be a person just like you,
I would do anything for it.
Let me tell you, Xiaoli,
I’m just an ordinary person,
who was also despised
and bullied by others.
While you were beaten by others today,
don’t hate those people who beat you.
You have to think for a while
why you are not strong enough.
Can you understand?
How can I be strong?
Follow my instructions and do something business first.
Doctor Xiao.
He has a high fever of 39.6℃,
with the inflammation in the wound.
Besides, blood sugar and blood pressure are quite high.
How will he be treated?
The patient should take a good rest,
especially a full sleep.
Got it. Thank you, Doctor Xiao.
You are going to graduate soon.
Where do you want to work?
I haven’t decided yet.
A few days ago,
the director of the provincial intelligence center came to me
and named you to work for him. Are you interested in it?
What’s your opinion?
This is your own business.
I won’t interfere.
Uncle Min.
Why do you
work on drug enforcement for so many years?
To be honest with you,
drug enforcement
can be addictive.
Really?
However, these years,
what makes me proud is
that I always believe
only the wisest, the most courageous, the most determined
and the most insistent police officer
is able to bare this responsibility.
What do you think of me for this duty?
What do you think?
I think I am the police officer, as you have said,
who will be addicted to drug enforcement.
Uncle Min.
I shouldn’t lose my temper with you.
Never mind.
Have a good rest.
Uncle Min.
Chen Ke,
Chen Ke might have some clue.
Get it.
Protect her.
Don’t worry.
I have arranged it already.
Yang Liu, you drink too much!
What are you doing?
Take it easy.
Take off your shoes and have a good rest.
I tell you,
Never,
Never look at me in this way.
Money
is always the same no matter where it comes from.
Stop drinking.
Leave me alone.
Stop drinking.
Chen Ke,
tell me something about your boyfriend.
It will ruin your life if you meet a wrong lover.
Take me as an example,
I found a wrong person, Bao Xing, who is a druggy.
Stand up first.
You should find...
Take care.
Find a good person.
Sit down .
Find a good person.
Yeah, yeah.
Take the medicine first.
Hold it well.
Who’s calling?
It’s
the telephone number who have sold the drugs to Bao Xing for a long time.
Yang Liu,
Thank you.
What are you doing?
I go there alone.
Let me go with you.
They will be a threat for your life. Do you believe me?
Hey,
Zhenjiang.
These are the ship information you asked for
of the domestic cargo boats in the four ports
that will arrive in Marseille
from April 15th to April 19th,
and there are the materials about the related companies.
I’ve sent them to your phone.
Yeah. I received.
Thanks a lot!
How’s it going?
We are still in the questioning process.
If I find something new,
I will inform you as soon as possible.
OK.
See you.
OK, bye.
Hey,
Jialiang.
There will be a freighter of Hong Kong Haoyu Group
that leaves from Shenzhen on April 17th .
The boat will send some electronic components to Marseille.
The related materials
have been sent to your phone.
I see.
What’s your opinion about this?
I guess probably
Liu Haoyu is the supplier of the French Market.
I want to cut off the way,
and wait for Liu Haoyu to find me.
Only in this way,
can we know clearly about the Dongshan.
OK, we must keep in touch.
Keep me informed.
OK, thanks.
Doctor.
What’s up?
Save him.
OK.
What’s wrong?
Too much blood.
Come on,
cover the wound.
Easy.
Come on.
Take care.
Mind the steps.
Fortunately, you sent the person here in time,
otherwise he will lose his life.
Thanks.
Thank you.
You still need to pay 2,700 yuan.
I,
Doctor,
I paid it just now,
but it’s not enough.
The operation for him
is more difficult than what I expect.
Doctor,
Can I...
You see, I only have these money.
Can I pay the rest of the money
by installment?
By installment?
How can I trust you?
Please believe me.
I used to be a teacher in Dongshan middle school.
I was honored as the Excellent Teacher in the province as well.
You?
It’s you! Mr. Lin.
I thought it was you last night.
But I was not sure.
I was graduated from Dongshan school.
I used to be your student.
You might mistake me.
Actually,
I am not a teacher.
I lied. I...
I am...
Doctor Chen.
Can you come out with me?
Doctor,
Mr. Lin, please wait for me. Just a moment!
Can you help my teacher?
Is he really your teacher?
He is indeed.
You can deduct my wages to help him.
How could this be?
Help him, please.
Okay. Thanks, Doctor Chen.
How about in this way?
You needn’t to pay the rest of the operation fee.
This is because of Mrs. Li,
but you’d better take him away as soon as possible.
The police will seek for him.
Thanks.
I will take him away right now.
I will deal with it.
Wu,
can you walk?
Hold it.
Slowly, slowly.
Hey.
Hey, is it Xiang?
Yes, who is that?
I am a friend of Xiao Dongbei.
He gave me your phone number.
What’s up?
I am Bao Xing’s girlfriend.
I have something urgent to tell him.
Dongbei told me that Bao Xing always get drugs from you.
So he told me to ask you.
Yep, he borrowed some money from me.
If you nailed it,
I’ll share the money with you
Hey,
Hey, Xiang,
What’s your name?
I am Yang Liu.
But you can’t tell Bao Xing about it.
He won’t come if he knows it?
OK, hold on it. Wait for a while.
Why are you waiting for him?
He must be contacting Dongbei
in order to figure out my identity.
It’s not easy to cheat them.
Hey,
Xiang.
Tonight let’s meet at 10 pm at the back gate,
but you need to arrive there on your own.
Take 1000 yuan.
OK.
What are you doing?
Check the time.
Who is Bao Xing?
I haven't met him before.
But it’s said that someone met him the day before yesterday.
Look at it more carefully.
I’ve looked it carefully.
I really don’t know him.
Sir.
You see, this is a restaurant.
So many people come and go.
Even if he had been here, I won’t be able to recognize him.
Didn’t you get wrong information?
Keep this thing in mind and pay attention to it.
If you have some any news,
Please contact us at once.
Sure, sure.
Sir.
What’s wrong with the guy?
It’s none of your business, so don’t ask so many questions.
Sir, it’s time for lunch.
How about eating something here?
Nope.
Shan,
why did the police come?
Nothing. They are looking for a person.
Shan has close relationship with the police.
Right? Shan.
Help yourself to eat. I give you 20% off.
Thanks a lot.
Feel free to order whatever you want.
Xiang.
Did Bao Xing messed up something?
Shut up.
Keep it down.
Don’t always talk about Bao Xing now.
The police is seeking for him.
Come in with me, you two guys.
What’s up? Shan.
Come in .
Come on.
Come in.
Sit down.
Xiang,
Who is Bao Xing that you are talking about?
A friend.
You mean Bao Xing?
You know him as well?
Tell me the truth.
Do you know him well?
No, just acquaintance.
Where on earth is he?
I don’t know.
You don’t know?
Do you know you are in trouble?
Look.
Two days ago,
On the northern mountain of Nanjing village in Dongshan,
A den of drugs
was destroyed by the police,
but what matters is that a policeman died.
Bao Xing might has something to do with it.
Bao Xing dares to kill the policeman?
I don’t know.
You should think it clearly.
If you don’t tell the truth,
I will call the two policemen who came here before
to expose it.
And then you will tell the truth in the police station.
Don’t make fun of me.
I know you have close relationship with the police.
How can you prove that
I have close relationship with the police?
Shan,
Last time I saw you were together with a policeman.
And I heard that others called him Chief Chen, right?
You are chief goose in this way.
Yep.
You still don’t want to tell me, right?
Fine.
Now,
I will call the police at once.
No, no.
Shan, brother Shan.
Calm down. Let’s negotiate.
Okay.
Tell me. Where is Bao?
Today is the first meeting
for special group of May 13 Case and the Joint Investigation Group.
I hope we can feel free to discuss and share opinions.
Yunbo,
Brief the Lin Shengwen case to us first.
Lin Shengwen,
Lin Shengwen obtained a guarantor pending trial.
I didn’t know at first.
At that time, I was having a meeting in Guangzhou.
So it’s Director Luo Xu who signed the judgment.
Then, Li Fei told me about this.
After I knew this condition,
I started to check the materials
including the related reports and procedures at once.
If the clinical judgment
that the Libra Judicial Authentication Center offered
is right,
Lin Shengwen obtained a guarantor pending trial
is in conformity with the principle,
we have no questions about it.
Li Fei said that Lin Shengwen’s death was not a suicide case.
Instead, he said Lin was killed.
The Forensic report also said that
there were scars in Lin Shengwen’s body.
Lin Shengwu said that
that afternoon,
after he took Lin Shengwen from the Narcotics Control Bureau,
he beat Lin Shengwen severely.
We have witnesses to prove it.
Also, colleagues from the forensics department didn’t find any evidence
that can show he was killed by others
in Lin Shengwen’s house.
What’s more,
when Lin Shengwen made a suicide,
Ling Zonghui, Lin Shengwu
and Lin Shengwen’s wife were downstairs.
If Lin Shengwen was killed by others,
they would all be criminals.
