The Thunder
Chief Cai,
These are the materials of Chenhai drug production organization
And Yaoji drug trafficking organization.
What about Fan Yugang’s gang?
I’ll hand in tomorrow evening.
Work overtime tonight and finish it.
And hand in tomorrow.
You hear me, Chief Cai.
I have been working extra hours for a week.
I can't even remember what my wife looks like.
Half a month ago,
Who told me “my wife is so annoying”?
“I don’t want to see her anymore”.
Hey, Director Ma.
Chief Zuo notified me just now
and let you go to Yunlai Hotel
at its meeting room at 1st floor at 10am tomorrow.
The Joint Steering Group wants to talk with you.
Tomorrow
Vice President Huang of the Municipal Procuratorate will meet me.
Reschedule it for me.
By the way,
about the materials for an action to crack down on drug trafficking,
have you prepared it for me?
Well,
I let Zhou Kai send it to your office
at 8:30 tomorrow.
OK.
Don't be late tomorrow.
Is Bao Xing already in the detention center?
We’ve interrogated Bao Xing.
He also doesn't know who wants to kill him.
At the day you went for the Bao Xing,
was there anyone else on the scene?
Zhongshan Municipal Bureau asked me to identify two persons.
Were there other persons besides those two?
Yes.
You are not alone.
I am alone.
What’s the name?
I don’t know.
Chen Ke,
think about it carefully.
This is rather important.
Hey, is it Xiang?
Who was shooting?
I didn’t know.
I just went to Xiang to get the goods.
Yes. Xiang. That’s his name.
At that time, both Yang Liu and Bao Xing called him Xiang.
He is still alive?
I don't know. He ran at the time.
How did you find this Xiang?
Yang Liu got his phone number.
It was written on a napkin then.
Can you recall the number?
I can’t.
How did Yangliu find Xiang at that time?
Seems like he’s a frequenter of
the night club Yang Liu works for.
Send me the name of the night club. Let’s go.
Li Fei,
Where are you going?
To Zhongshan, for Xiang.
Is it if you find Xiang,
you can find the one who harmed you and Song Yang?
Probably.
I am going with you.
No, Chen Ke. It is too dangerous.
That’s true.
You just need to send me the name of the nightclub.
We are leaving now.
Even if you get to that night club,
you can't recognize Xiang.
I have seen Xiang.
He made a deep impression on me.
I can definitely recognize him.
Hello?
Rong, it’s me.
What’s the problem?
Looking for you in an urgent matter.
I am downstairs at your home.
Why did you get there?
What if someone sees us?
Rong, it is really in a hurry.
Uncle Hua has specifically ordered me
to not say it on the phone.
He let me tell you this face to face.
So what’s the thing?
Li Fei has been to Zhongshan.
An escort girl in Sweet Dancing Hall told us today
Lin Shengwen’s lover Zhou Lin has been with her.
The two talked for a long time.
Zhou Lin?
Isn’t Zhou Lin controlled by you?
That’s why this is fishy.
Where is Li Fei now?
He should have already arrived in Zhongshan.
Also with two women.
This place?
Yes.
Here is where Yang Liu works.
Wen,
You've had a lot of work!
Is that Xiang?
No.
Not him.
Hello beauty!
You’re alone?
Who are you waiting for?
Waiting for my boyfriend.
I am familiar with this place.
Who is your boyfriend?
Xiang.
Xiang?
That little bald! Why waiting for him?
You want a boyfriend?
I’m the ready-made one.
It hurts! You can speak carelessly,
but behave yourself, OK? It hurts, hurts, hurts!
My God.
Very strong.
So strange.
When did Xiang
get a girlfriend like you?
He got other girlfriends?
I didn’t mean that.
Xiang often comes here at this time.
Let's wait, OK?
Come on. Let’s drink.
Let's drink and wait. Make a night of it!
Come on.
Is it good?
Drink.
Keep drinking.
Come on.
You.
Call Xiang and bring him here for me.
OK.
Wait for me.
I’ll catch and bring him to you.
Don't leave here.
They are looking for Xiang.
And the woman is skilled in fighting.
Got it.
Where are you going?
Business travel.
For how many days?
Come back tomorrow.
Have a nice sleep.
Control this guy for me.
I’ll be there soon.
Dear young lady,
don’t worry.
I’ve found Xiang for you.
He’ll come right away.
Let's keep drinking.
Come on.
Continue to drink.
Danger! He slipped a drug in it!
Freeze.
Drink it.
Good! Good!
Awesome drinker! Let’s drink and wait.
Anyway, Xiang is not that fast.
Bottom up.
I’ll drink first.
Can you drink anymore?
Hello beauty!
He comes.
Her?
Come here.
She said
she is your girlfriend.
Do you know him? Yes, he’s the guy.
It's him.
Help me a little.
Will something bad happen to Ma Wen?
Li Fei! Ma Wen…
Don't move. Don't move. Don't move.
Let me escort you out first.
So what happened?
Ma Wen is been watched by them.
So Ma Wen...
Nothing, nothing. I’ll handle it.
You get on the car
and wait for me here.
Lock the door. Don't let them see you.
Take care of yourself.
OK.
Hello?
I’ve kept that woman.
Also keep Xiang on watch.
Yes.
Xiang. Boss.
Look at this girl.
How white the legs.
How good her skin.
We’ve got to go, Boss.
Have fun, my boss.
We’ll patrol at the door.
He is quite shy.
No entry here!
Quite a quick action.
Can you drink anymore?
Who are you?
Police.
Police?
You know Chang Shan?
Yes.
But Chang Shan is dead.
Did He get someone backing him?
No.
I don't know.
I don’t know.
Then I will help you recall it, OK?
I know! I know! I say it!
He is quite close to a police
called Chief Chen.
Chief Chen?
Full Name?
I only know that his surname is Chen.
Don't know his given name.
Tell me a little more about how you know each other.
All gangsters know this.
Chang Shan has a big brother and he’s a cop.
They all call him Chief Chen.
I saw him once in the teahouse of Chang Shan.
Was he wearing a police uniform at the time?
No.
Then how do you know that he is a policeman?
I didn't know at the time.
But later when I was sent to the detention center,
I saw him there.
He was wearing a police uniform.
Are you sure?
I am sharp in identifying other people.
Am I right?
Keep laying!
Aren’t you Bao Xing’s...?
It’s him, right?
True.
I have seen you, that day, I…
Hide!
Chen Ke! Lay down! Chen Ke!
Chen Ke, lay down!
It’s silent now.
He must be hit.
Let me check.
Be careful.
Chen Ke, I’ll count to three, and then you shut the door.
One.
Two.
Three.
How’s him?
Died.
So merciless.
There is blood on the ground.
He must be hit.
Chen Ke,
Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid.
Call Zhao Xuechao.
Let him handle it.
Here we are.
I am sorry.
Is Xiang said something useful today?
Yes.
That’s good.
Wait me to pick you up tomorrow morning.
I’ll send you to work.
I’m good.
I am fine. I will do it myself.
That situation yesterday
will cast a shadow to even policemen.
Not to mention a girl.
Let's go.
Who let you act without authorization?
Have you forgotten your task?
No.
My task is to protect Li Fei.
So I have to follow him.
Why don’t you report to me?
You're accomplices.
Reporting! Director Li.
Not accomplices.
We’re comrades.
It’s not I do not report,
but because I don’t know how to report to you.
Li Fei has speculated that
the guys killed Bao Xing are guys chased to kill him.
And one of them escaped.
Before things have been investigated clearly,
Chen Ke and Li Fei wanted to investigate privately.
So in order to protect them,
I must follow them.
Result?
Xiang said that there is someone called Chief Chen,
who has a friendly relation with Chang Shan.
I’ve check the information
of every chief in the public security system.
Only Chen Guangrong’s surname is Chen.
How about the whole Guangdong?
Don’t you know how many chief Chen in Guangdong?
Another witness is dead.
The dead cannot bear witness.
Is it worthwhile to risk yourself to get this?
Have you driven the car back?
Yes.
Handle it to Du Li.
Check the gun, check its trajectory. Go out and do it.
Yes, sir.
And also
keep it secret.
You cannot let anyone of Dongshan Public Security Bureau
know this.
Understood.
Go out.
Didn't I tell you? You can’t harm Li Fei.
I was protecting myself.
He’s investigating you now?
Rest assured.
I have already controlled the situation.
How is the injury?
A minor one.
We’re sitting on the boat.
If it capsize, we’ll both fall into water. No one can escape.
Uncle Hua
Well,
Wen,
how about
giving me five?
Don’t talk that much. Come and save me first.
I am dying. Come over right now.
Coming.
Don't hit that now. You must come to save me first.
Come on, save me first.
Sorry.
Do you know Wu?
Wu? Who’s him? Don't know.
Aren’t you my teacher Lin?
Pass.
It’s really you!
Cai Xiaoping?
Yes, Cai Xiaoping.
You’re really tall now.
You were always sitting in the first row in my class.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
Xiaoping,
where’s your father?
My Dad? Because of you,
He’s in jail now.
Dang! Lose again.
Ping, he is your teacher?
Xiaoping…
He’s my teacher and what’s the matter?
What's the matter?
He was the Chinese teacher at my middle school.
You know I wasn't doing my homework at the time,
and he's been on to me ever since.
One night he came to visit my home.
He pushed the door, and guess what?
What happened?
He saw my sister and I were cooking meth there.
I didn’t lie, I didn’t lie.
I really didn't lie.
At then, when school was over,
my sister and I,
went to my parents to peel the New Contac capsule.
Work one month,
get ten thousand yuan.
Oh my god!
You’re the nouveau riche.
Yes, the nouveau riche.
What about now?
True. He’s rich.
I’m still rich now.
Xiaoping,
I am not your teacher anymore.
Normally I am not
qualified to evaluate your life.
Every young man
makes mistakes.
But some mistakes
can persist in your whole life.
Don't let those mistakes
ruin your life.
Don't let people regard you
as a loser.
Dad is in jail,
mom takes drugs,
younger sister prostitutes herself,
where can I see the hope?
Sir,
You called the police that very year,
and I saw my dad caught.
I do not blame you.
I blame my dad.
I blame my mom.
I blame my home.
Teacher Lin,
this is my last time call you teacher.
I am not happy
seeing you like this.
Really.
How poor you are.
You are not as good as my dad in jail.
He’s giving him money!
Take it.
Take it?
Take it!
Come back. Start another game.
Too late, dude. We've wating for you so long.
Hurry up. Come on, Come on.
I’ll play MID this time.
You are so lame. Forget about it.
You’re so poor. You’d better play BOT.
Play BOT. BOT suits you.
You can't do this.
Come on.
Choose this one.
All right, all right, all right. Let's start first. Start first.
Re-select your summoner. Let me choose Diao Chan.
You choose this. You’ve chosen it wrong.
Hurry up.
I’ll not choose Diao Chan. I’ll not choose Diao Chan. OK?
Come on. Come on. Come on.
The public security bureau is a very special place.
It is both the junction of power
and the distribution center of information.
It is really understandable
it’s the junction of power.
But saying it’s the distribution center of information
is because the public security bureau is the only place
that can reach all of the organizations
in society without impediment.
The rumor of drug production in Tazhai Village
has been circulating in society for long.
And an average person can’t get in there.
You should know about this situation.
The only measure I can adopt
is to copy the experience of Tangtou Village
and to develop Cai Sanmao as the informant.
You like to use informants.
Drug control is not the same as criminal investigation.
In drug cases, no one will take the initiative to report.
We must rely on our own to investigate.
Because you need to capture the goods to capture the drug dealers.
If you want to get clues,
the best way is to
find a breakthrough point inside the gang.
This is one reason why
I like to develop informants.
Because cracking drug cases needs operation.
Everyone in our team’s photo,
the date of birth, mobile phone number, home address,
plate number and temporary plate number of cars,
are all in control by Dongshan’s drug producers and traffickers.
They know every move of us.
On this condition,
I am afraid that fostering informants is the least expensive way.
Speaking of informants,
Last July 16th,
Did Ma Yunbo suggest you to
develop the Lin Zonghui’s third son Lin Sanbao
as your informant
and make this your plan?
Yes, but I was confused about that.
Confused?
Yes.
Because half a month before
Director Ma called me to his police,
I’d been already in touch
with Lin Sanbao secretly.
Who let you to secretly contact Lin Sanbao?
On my own.
No one knows
in the bureau.
How we contact with each other,
at what time, at which place,
They don't know at all.
Why?
I’ve just said,
the public security bureau is an intelligence center.
There is a joke which says
the rumor and the truth are a pair of twins.
The rumor is impatient,
and walks in front.
Then everyone figures out it is fake,
so they beat the rumor to death.
As the truth slowly comes out,
everyone realizes that the original rumor and the truth
are the same.
The rumor that Tazhai Village is not clean
has long been circulating in society.
Whether it is rumor or truth,
I can't ignore it.
Then why didn't you express your doubts
to your superiors?
I have no evidence.
And the thing I’m doing
is very likely to run into the red line.
Tazhai is a Drug Control Model Village.
It is the entire Dongshan and Longping area’s...
Let me see how to put it.
It is a model established by ourselves.
What about my suspicion is wrong?
If it will be just like what happened in Tangtou Village
that I expose the informant?
If Lin Yaodong
has got more powerful person behind his back?
I can't risk the career of my subordinates
to take this gamble.
Who are you looking for?
Is Li Fei’s home?
Yes.
Excuse me. You are?
I used to be his teacher.
My surname is Lin.
I need to meet him for something.
Li Fei,
Teacher Lin?
Li Fei,
why are you listless? You’re not good.
Are you sick?
Lately
I’ve been losing sleep.
Teacher Lin, this is for you.
It's too much. Just take it, take it.
Sit down and talk about it.
Ma Wen,
Help Teacher Lin with a glass of water.
Got it.
Is it something happened
so you come here to me?
Don’t worry. She’s a policewoman. She’s on us.
I come here
for my son.
Li Fei,
My son, Zaizai,
He died out of murder.
Drink some water, please.
Didn’t he die because of drug overdose as you have said?
No. No.
He was killed by the police.
The policeman’s surname is Chen.
Do you have any evidence?
I know a child who sells drugs on the street.
Only 18 years old, called Wu.
He's unwilling to tell me his real name.
Wu said to me that
He knows my son
was killed by the policeman surnamed Chen.
What details did he say?
He refused to say more about it.
He only said
my Zaizai haven’t taken meth.
The truth is at that time someone deliberately used a syringe
to inject huge amount of meth
to his vessel.
My Zaizai,
while he was struggling,
was calling me. “Dad! Dad!”
Teacher Lin,
Are the words of Wu
can be trusted?
He is very nice with me.
I regard him as my son.
He is as old as Zaizai.
They are both only 18 years old.
You said that before Ma Yunbo told you the whole thing,
You had been in secret contact with Lin Sanbao.
Any evidence?
No.
What is Lin Sanbao's attitude?
Not willing to cooperate.
He does not trust us.
Why?
Does not trust who?
Why?
