[Episode 01]
[Case Name: Skewer Murder Case] [Case Number: HC08070]
[Filing Date: 2018/02/28] [Suspect: Bao Yu (Male)]
[Victim: Duo La (Female)] [Case Status: Under Investigation]
[Lanya (Fictional country), Hua City, Police Department] [01:05 AM]
[Hua City Police Department]
- Supervisor Lu. - Give me the documents.
- They're all in there. The photos have been developed. - All of them?
Yes, all information relating to the victim, Duo La,
and the evidence from the crime scene are all here.
Supervisor Lu!
I've been interrogating for over half a day.
That fellow, Bao Yu, refuses to confess anything.
Supervisor Lu, it's already been twenty-three hours.
[Interrogation Room]
[Police Chief Dong Lingqi]
Which one?
This?
Killed by skewers.
Are you insane?
Duo La stayed in your house for a week. What did you do?
She didn't stay for a week!
She came to ask me for tattoos. She left after two days.
She didn't let me touch her. What else could I do but tell her to scram.
That's it.
Which skewer?
[Hua City - Jinma Bridge] [02:25 AM]
There's no way a plane can catch up! I told you not to deliver it but you insisted.
Looks like this car is stopping.
Watch out!
Are you okay?
God! Do you even know how-
[Burger Bar]
President Liu!
Why are you here?
Long time no see.
You dressed so well today!
Wait, let's button that up. Now that's nice looking.
Come on, let's drink.
Cheers.
Take good care of President Liu.
See you later.
- Why are you coming here, Brother? - To see a case, man.
- I very miss you... - I missed you, too.
How is your dad?
My father doesn't know about this, Bro.
- Brother, you know. - Okay.
Come, get that whiskey from last time for three thousand.
President Chi, he keeps groping me. It is so annoying.
- Is that true? - Yes.
All right, listen to me now. Fifteen minutes.
After fifteen minutes, let him open a bottle of wine. Then you can leave. Okay?
Okay. Okay.
Good.
Got get Lily quickly. Can't you tell I am really tired?
Where did she go?
Brother Liu, what is making you so upset?
Where did this girl come from?
She has no manners.
I only held her shoulders, she dared to push me away.
You are only a wine salesgirl, what are you doing? Get out of here.
President Chi.
It's not appropriate to be so protective of your people.
Brother, I am only protecting my place. Right?
You are here to play around.
But don't treat this place as a garbage dump; throwing your bottles around. Okay?
That's odd.
Who allows you to speak so arrogantly?
Take a look.
You don't know what kind of business I am in, but I... know what you do.
Once hell breaks loose, I know what I need to do to you.
Isn't that right? Congressman Liu.
In our place, let's just have a good time.
If anything happens, I can close my place.
But your position as Congressman, can you bear to leave it?
I am sorry.
Brother Liu, I apologize to you.
Open a bottle.
Brother Liu, to show my sincerity.
Let's be happy.
That's interesting. I am happy.
It's all right.
Okay, enjoy yourselves.
Have some fun.
Be happy. Sit down.
Come, let's have a drink.
What is that odd taste in today's apple juice?
We ran out of apple juice. Added some iced tea. Plus, something else.
No wonder it tasted gross. Hurry, give me a glass of wine.
This table, at twenty thousand. Understand?
Manager Chi, thank you for before.
Didn't I tell you to scram a few seconds ago? Why are you still here?
I only wanted to ask you where Sister Lily went. What about my money?
- She owes you money? - Yes.
She also owed me money. What to do?
I want to ask you what to do, too.
- You are pals with her? - Yes.
That's interesting. She got you here but left on her own after only a few days.
I live in her house. She hasn't been back for a few days.
- What does that have to do with me? - President Chi.
- What is your name? - Serene.
Serene, from now on, you will supervise all the salesgirls.
- Do you understand? Except for her. Let her scram. - I understand.
Thank you, President Chi. Thank you.
President Chi, we found Lily.
Found her? Don't let her come back. You go tell her I don't want the money anymore.
Lily is dead.
Dead?
Seems like it's this one. No... no.
Maybe this one.
Figure it out for yourself.
Which one did I use to skewer her?
- What are you doing? - Interrogating.
Then you should go to Jinma Bridge.
Another woman died. In her thirties.
I am busy.
I am telling you.
She was also skewered in the neck.
Supervisor Lu, are you sure you want to continue interrogating here?
[Hua City Police] [Crime Scene Do Not Cross]
Supervisor Lu, please tell us something.
A second victim appearing at such a short span of time.
Can you reveal some information to us?
- Supervisor Lu. - Did you just arrive?
Senior Brother!
Did anyone touch the body?
No one dares. Only Old Shi touched it. Anyway, I was watching it.
- Is that Lily? - Yes, it's Lily.
Get up.
It is her.
- Take off your jacket. - What?
Take off your jacket!
Flip her over.
Don't move.
How many days since has she been dead?
Sister Lily was missing since the thirteenth.
I couldn't get thru her cell phone.
It's been three days.
She was skewered to death.
The knots are the same as well.
Crazy. Already killed two people.
Yet they still don't know how to tie a knot. Looks like tying shoelaces.
Senior Brother, Old Gao says we can't get inside this car.
Wait... until we tow it back.
Why don't you go work with Old Gao then?
- Little Zheng. - Here.
Watch over him.
Supervisor Lu.
Better not touch that now. Wait until we bring it back.
Did you check for prints?
There was none on the steering wheel. Must've worn gloves to drive.
It rolled over in neutral.
- Where are the cell and wallet? - None found.
Kind enough of them to keep the clothes on the body.
Take this back for testing.
Check for prints other than the victim's.
- Yes, Sir. - Where is Old Shi?
He is probably sleeping in some car.
Evidence team, give me an evidence bag.
Over here.
[Ping]
What are you doing?
Calling the police.
Who allowed you to call the police. Take her cell phone.
What are you doing?
Brother Zhen, what is the situation?
Does Brother Tong know of this matter?
Just in case this was done by our own people.
- Why did you take my cell phone? - Shut up.
Senior brother, what do we do now?
We can't leave Lily here.
Find a space at the Hua City Funeral Parlor.
Get one with cold refrigeration.
- Understood. - Take care of her well.
- How many days should I rent it for? - I don't know.
Why aren't we calling the police?
Slowly.
Why aren't we calling the police?
Be careful.
Where are you taking her?
Why aren't we calling the police?
We need to have a talk.
Don't come near me!
Don't...
You are amazing.
This is money. Take a look.
Take this money and buy a cell phone.
I know you are close to Lily.
But regardless of how close you two were,
you must forget everything you saw today.
Or else...
Hey.
What are you doing?
Sister Lily is dead.
She brought me over to work here.
I gave her all my money for safekeeping.
She is dead now. What will happen to me?
Listen well! You can go anywhere you want.
I don't care how far away you go.
You can't go back to my nightclub anymore. Do you understand?
Look at yourself. Are you suitable for this line of work? Scram!
Senior, falling asleep?
How can I sleep here?
If I could sleep here, I wouldn't need to pay a mortgage for my house.
When did she die?
Around 9:00 p.m. in the evening.
The wounds on her neck are similar to the previous case.
Which wound is the fatal one?
You asked me the same question last time.
That's right. It's been more than ten days now but you still didn't give me an answer.
The murderer plunged it in and pulled it out.
Plunged it in again and pulled it out again.
None of the wounds were fatal.
She died when she couldn't take it anymore.
Examine it for me again tomorrow.
See if the victim was poisoned or if she took drugs.
If you're tired, go home and rest.
You spent so much money on buying a house. It will be a pity to sleep in the car.
Old Gao, leave this car alone. Don't be a disturbance.
What was the victim's occupation? When did she arrive in Hua City?
She's a nurse in Renai Hospital called Liu Yaping.
She immigrated here from Lai Province a year ago.
Her husband arrived with her child last month.
The car's a month old.
We still haven't gotten in contact with her family.
Notify the family.
I can't go.
Her son's only three. I can't tell him.
I'll let Eggy Boy go with you.
Is it connected to the Duo La case? Or what? Anyway, I want in.
Of course, they're connected. There can't be two freaks like that.
You didn't even tell me that you were coming.
Don't you know I was interrogating Bao Yu like an idiot?
We only found out that she was stabbed by the skewers when we got here.
And you didn't pick up my call.
Miaoling needs to go notify the victim's family. Go with her.
- Why is it me again? - Autopsy Department!
Physical Evidence Department! Take whatever you want! Everyone else, leave.
Yes, Sir!
President Chi, this is Lily's locker.
Open it.
What exactly was Lily doing?
Was she selling?
Which one of you was with her?
I'm asking you a question!
It's in here. Every transaction, name,
phone number, address, time, even who received the order.
All clearly recorded.
How are you going to explain this? I told you guys multiple times!
Don't go anywhere.
Don't leave with a stranger whenever you want.
Have you been to his house?
Do you know what kind of person he is?
President Chi, it's not like we want to go, we still need to make a living.
Is life or money more important?
Do you want to die?
When will the perpetrator be caught?
Before this is resolved, stay in the shop.
Stay here, okay?
President Chi, Brother Tong says he wants to meet you tomorrow.
Wait for it. There's definitely no good news since Brother Tong is looking for me at this time.
Damn, why is it you again?
Didn't I tell you to leave?
- What about my money? - What money?
My pay.
When I came to Hua City, I stayed at Lily's place.
I entrusted her with my monthly paychecks.
What does that have to do with me?
Go home. Was the money I gave you not enough to buy a ticket home?
I live in Macau. A few hundred is not enough.
President Chi, we don't have time. We have to hurry.
You still have business to attend to later at 5:00 p.m.
- Go get the car. - Yes.
Listen, I don't care what relationship you had with Lily.
The amount of money that she owed you...
has nothing to do with me. Go find Lily instead.
Don't come to the store anymore. We have no relationship with each other. That's all.
If I don't work here, what will I eat? Are you letting me starve?
Also, only you know about Lily's death.
You didn't even let me report it to the police. I don't care.
You should do something about this money.
Let me tell you something.
Don't follow me around, understand?
Do you know who I am? How dare you follow me around.
You also saw it. I didn't kill her.
Understand? Every time I see you here,
I'll kick you out.
What will I do without money?
I can only report to the police.
[Hua City Police Station]
[HC Police]
[Hua City Police Station]
I came today to take Duo La back.
The one who is ready to be buried.
Mom of Duo La, I don't think today will be okay.
Do you know a nurse called Liu Yaping?
I don't.
Before Duo La died, did she go to an OB/GYN at Renai Hospital?
OB/GYN?
There's no way.
Why would Duo La go to an OB/GYN?
Supervisor Lu, Liu Yaping's corpse is here.
They need to work now,
so let's visit Duo La later. Okay?
You've worked hard.
Is my daughter's wound the same as hers?
Team Leader Lu, is my daughter's wound the same as hers?
Team Leader Lu!
Auntie, let's leave first. Come.
It's the same as hers.
Mr. Shen, please get a hold of your emotions first.
Your wife was murdered by a skewer.
Then her corpse was thrown in her car.
The two of us came here today to understand the situation.
When does your wife usually come home?
She gets off work at 5:00 p.m.
She arrives home at 6:00 p.m.
Then where were you yesterday after 5:00 p.m.?
At home, taking care of the child,
waiting for her to come home.
I waited to call the police at 11:00 p.m.
Is there anyone who can collaborate your timeline?
What do you mean?
Are you suspecting me, right now?
My child is only three this year.
My son is only three!
Mr. Shen, calm down. We know that it's only been a month since you've arrived with your son.
I waited for this reunion...
for three years.
Now you are suggesting that I killed my wife!
Team Leader Lu,
when will you catch the perpetrator?
As soon as possible.
Where did you find that lady from before?
We can't tell you that.
What about Duo La?
Where did you find Duo La?
Why won't you tell me?
I'm sorry, I can't say anything right now.
Did you catch the perpetrator only after twenty years?
Please answer the question.
This new case is completely different
from the case twenty years ago.
These two cases should not be compared.
Is it possible that you won't be able to catch the perpetrator?
No. Definitely not.
Please go back first.
Supervisor Lu.
Section Chief Gao, did you find anything new inside Liu Yaping's car?
I will write it in the report.
Let me take a look at the report.
I haven't written it yet.
Then let me ask you directly. Is there a record of her trips?
- No. - Is there a GPS?
- Wasn't installed. - Other than Liu Yaping's blood stain, was there another person's?
Other than Liu Yaping's, there wasn't anyone else's.
You got nothing. Are you keeping me in suspense?
Supervisor Lu, "no results" is found thru my examinations.
I examined it for an entire day.
What about these?
These aren't anything.
Other than Liu Yaping's fingerprints, there are only her husband's and her child's.
Since you couldn't find anything, I'll test it instead.
Enter.
Brother Shi,
- did you finish examining Liu Yaping yet? - Finished.
What about it? Time of death?
Around 6:00 p.m. last night.
What time at 6:00 p.m.?
It's not a movie ticket, how would I know that specifically?
Continue.
The fatal wound is still on the neck.
Her hands were tied to a chair.
The perpetrator used his right hand.
Same as Duo La, no signs of sexual intercourse.
Still no sexual intercourse?
Is there a problem?
There's no contact between the two women.
There're no signs of sexual intercourse. What exactly was the motivation?
Sociopath.
It's difficult to investigate.
If he's really like that, he'll continue to commit crimes.
Eventually, he'll mess up.
There will be more people dying.
Is Duo La a virgin?
No, why are you asking?
- Bao Yu said that Duo La wouldn't let him touch her. - I wanted to confirm.
Come, Eggy.
- Senior. - Bring me the archives
of the missing people in the last thirty days in Hua City.
- Male or female? - Female. - What age?
Eighteen to thirty-five years of age. Research them all.
Senior, do you mean that there will be a third victim?
I hope there won't be. There can't be any more people dying. Go.
Oh.
This afternoon I went down to the Interchange Center,
I checked their security videos.
You found that car?
Today, I ran to her home and hospital.
Her husband and people at the hospital aren't saying anything.
It should be a serial killer.
We can only wait for the murderer to make another mistake.
But I still have a question that I can't figure out.
The murderer always ties the shoelaces in a bow.
That's very amateurish. It shouldn't be a serial killer.
I've seen all the surveillance videos of the junctions on the Jinma Bridge.
Only this one got a shot at that car.
The time was around 2:24 a.m.
The murderer stuck the gear in neutral to make the car roll by itself
and the surveillance never shot him again.
It's too blurry.
This is the clearest.
Can you tell if it's a man or a woman?
Man. It should be a man.
[AD04] [AF04]
[Lu Ziming, give me back my daughter.]
Lu Ziming, give me back my daughter!
Lu Ziming, in the case of the serial killing,
was found guilty as charged. [Daily News, murder case cleared up after 20 years!]
The devil from East Island was finally caught!
[Defendant]
Mom, I'm back.
Why did you come back so late tonight?
You should hurry and eat. I've left some servings for you.
Mom, I won't be eating. I'm tired. I'll be sleeping.
Ah Li,
tomorrow bring Yinuo home. Okay?
Call Wenxuan as well.
Mom, Wenxuan has been remarried for half a year.
Don't read the newpaper, okay? Get some sleep.
Mom, do you need something?
Come, take your medicine.
I don't want to take it.
Even if I take it, I still can't sleep.
You hardly sleep every day. How can your body handle it?
Come, take your medicine and have a good night of sleep tonight.
How many?
All right. Go to sleep now.
My leg has been hurting me this past couple of days.
I can't go see him tomorrow.
You should help me take this to him.
Last time, I made this with paper.
It definitely will not last long.
So this time I made it with cloth.
Don't cry. Don't cry.
I am sorry. Don't cry anymore.
Let's go back to sleep. Okay?
Come. Back to your room to sleep.
[Hua City Prison]
You are here to see Brother Tong, is that correct?
What did I tell you to do?
Help you manage all the shops.
It's not important to manage them well.
More important to keep the accounts clearly. Keep them well.
How many shops are there?
Nightclub, coffee shop, bar.
Did I let you do prostitution?
The ladies did that on their own, in secret. When something goes wrong, I get blamed for it.
That's why I am discussing this with you. Should we report it to the police? What should we do?
Do I need you if I wanted to get the cops?
Quiet down.
The ladies are waiting for an answer from me.
Do you care about them?
Of course, I don't. But the nightclub will collapse without them.
You... should go see Mr. Chen.
What? I can't meet Mr. Chen.
No... I am done for if I see him.
Brother Tong, please give me one more chance. Just one more.
I will definitely take care of this matter for you, all right?
Sure,
then I will tell him the situation.
In addition, I will tell him. After such a big situation occurred,
you still refused to see him.
[Hua City Prison]
Supervisor Lu, you haven't come here for a long time.
Mr. Chi, big shot lawyer, you are quite amazing.
You were forbidden from practicing law and yet you still come here.
What is it? Is your new boss in there?
Officer Lu, don't you worry.
You should focus on capturing people. I will take care of releasing people.
The next time you come here, don't expect to leave.
All right, we shall see next time.
Lu Ziming, you have a visitor.
Don't talk for too long.
Are you and your mother well?
Is Yinuo five years old now?
Visit her often whenever you have the time.
Or else, it will end up like you and me.
That's none of your business.
Patiently squat in here. This is from my mom.
Lu Ziming, convicted of serial murder.
[1992, Lanya Music Conservatory]
[Twenty year old bloody case solved ! Despicable monster. The murder is famous music professor.]
Lu Ziming, how can a professor commit such a heinous act.
Have you considered apologizing to the family members?
Why did you only admit to killing five people?
What about the sixth person?
