Come in.
Director Zhang.
Here's the award ceremony speech for eradicating Xingfeng Group.
You take a look first. All right?
Deputy Dong, come sit down.
They were all shot and killed.
Correct, they all died.
There were another four who were taken alive.
They are minor characters. Their confessions were already taken.
Chief, this case can be closed.
I was invited back from retirement.
You deserve all the credit.
Next year, that seat will eventually belong to you.
[Director Zhang Chenghai]
You gave me these opportunities.
You should know this person.
Fa Kelu.
The third in command of Xingfeng Group.
He specializes in the financial aspects.
How long did he remain as your informant?
What informant?
Let's both not pretend anymore.
He used to work under you.
Later, his background was erased and he went inside of Xingfeng.
He went undercover for four years. Waiting for this day,
you had him shot and killed.
No...
How is it that I am the one having him killed?
How much money did he procure for you?
What are you saying?
- I am only... - I will repeat. How much did he bring in for you?
Four years. 80 million yuan or so.
How old are you now?
Forty-eight.
Your position in the police force...
It seems like yesterday.
Back then you were similar to how Lu Li is now.
At that time, I was especially supportive of you.
I gave you a lot of opportunities.
But you...
We've worked together for over twenty years.
I will save your dignity a bit.
Go to the Internal Department and confess your involvement.
All right.
Wait a minute.
You also need to return the money.
I lost all of it at the casinos.
I don't care. Don't blame me for not saving you face.
Boss.
I am sorry, I will figure a way to return the money.
But you must save the position for me.
I followed you for twenty years.
What is that for? It's for...
...that position.

[Episode 14]
How long has Old Shi been examining it?
Over an hour.
Over an hour?
I'll press him. Bye.
What's the rush? Have you found out anything new?
Today's roster.
You know, in a lot of cities on the subway,
the last train after 12:00 a.m.
runs empty. There's not one person on it.
As if it were telling the ghosts,
"You work is done. Rest well."
- For real? - Of course.
So in the morning, don't we need to tell them,
"We're starting work" with another empty ride?
How would I know?
How's it going? Have you examined it?
Tests are over. An asthma attack.
Not having these kinds of medicine on hand, fluticasone propionate and salbutamol,
the main airways become obstructed and blocked, causing respiratory failure and death by lack of oxygen.
He did say that when he filed a report today at the precinct.
He kept using the inhaler the whole time.
You knew? You knew and still made me come here?
I am a forensic's doctor.
What did he tell me when he came to file a police report today?
He said that if he happened to die one day,
I must not consider it an accident, but murder.
What should I do?
You do it.
You guys, go out for a while.
What's wrong?
What "what's wrong"?
You have a family?
I do, too. I have a wife
and a daughter.
In hospitals, people die every day.
On the streets, there are accidents every day.
You can't just call me for examinations as you please for a dead person.
Do you know why I'm in a hurry?
My daughter is waiting for me to have lunch!
This afternoon I already examined Wang Ke.
I had to take 3 or 4 showers to wash away the smell.
I finished my work.
That Old Shi is pretty scary when he has outbursts.
You don't know.
His daughter is pregnant.
For real?
How old is she?
17 or 18, I don't know.
I mean, how big is she here?
Don't talk about it in front of Old Shi.
Quick. Tell me what to do with the body?
You chased all the EMTs away, then are you going to carry him?
Autopsy team, the morgue. Don't let anybody touch him.
When Old Shi sees it tomorrow morning, he'll explode.
Go tell the guys to go down there to bring up a stretcher
and carry him away.
Bring up the stretcher and take him away.
That is if I were to die,
even if I died in a natural way, please treat it like I was murdered.
Don't worry.
Whether it was an accident or a murder, I will get you an answer.

[Huang's father, 016-4715965] [Xindi Park, No. 307, Building 2]
Hello, is this the home of Mr. Huang?
Something happened to your son, Huang Jialun, in Hua City.
I'm from the Criminal Investigation Bureau.
I'd like to ask if you can come tomorrow. Yes, relatives.
He didn't stir any trouble.
It's...
We can talk about it in person tomorrow, all right?
Fine.
Oh, wait a moment.
Remember to ask for me. My name is Chi Zhen.
Goodbye.
I have to look for a helper.
Is it good? Have some more. Don't be shy.
Auntie, I'm really not flattering you.
Your cooking is too good.
If I'd grown up with you, I'd be obese for sure.
I don't know how Lu Li can be so thin.
Eat at your ease. I still have braised prawns cooking.
All right. No rush, no rush.
Mom, I'm back.
Why are you so late? Hurry up. Come have dinner.
Auntie's food is really good.
Why did you come to my home? Why are you eating here?
Really, your mom's too good. I told her I was your friend.
She didn't even ask if I was hungry; she just made me a full table of dishes. I'm touched.
You told her you were my friend.
Or else, what should I say?
Two things: first, whatever it is, you don't come to my home;
second, if you have anything to say, say it now and then leave.
A man died today. At noon he came to me to file a report;
said someone wanted to kill him. Before sunset he died on the subway.
But don't worry, first I had the body
taken back to our office. Tomorrow morning, we'll take care of the tests. Okay?
But tonight, you still need to go out with me.
You're the supervisor; I have to open the case with you anyway.
We have to solve this case. We may even be next year's reference model for police teaching.
We can't open this case.
Old Shi did the examination: death by asthma.
It has nothing to do with you or me. Leave.
He came to file a report at noon.
He died before sunset. How can that be a coincidence?
A person with asthma dying on the subway is quite normal.
Crowds, lack of air, the hustle, the medicine falls over:
the guy has a crisis and dies.
No. What if somebody swapped it?
Swapped what?
- All ready. - Braised prawns!
- Great, great. - Here, here.
- Thank you, Auntie. - Leave.
What? Auntie wants me to eat the prawns.
Right.
Today, at the crime scene I found this.
Look. Although it's just codes and we don't understand them,
this could be very important evidence in the case. Couldn't it?
- We can't open this investigation. - What?
We can't open it; moreover, you have no permission to investigate. Leave.
- How can you throw people out? - Leave.
- Don't be like that. - Leave.
Have the prawns first, all right?
That's fine, Auntie. I'm going.
Then come back often.
Often.
What case is this? Calling me here in the middle of the night to pick the lock.
I haven't done that in years.
That guy, Huang Jialun, reported this morning
that someone wanted to kill him. And in the afternoon he died.
Don't you think that's odd?
Didn't Huang Jialun die of asthma?
Do you believe it? Let's check a bit.
What does murder have to do with an asthma crisis?
Let me tell you something right here. If he was killed and we figure it out,
tomorrow, we'll be a case study for the police world.
Whoa!
I'd heard that Huang Jialun was a real homebody.
If I had this many figurines with me I'd be, too.
If I had such serious asthma, I wouldn't go out either.
Brother Zhen, you know how much money these things are worth?
- Are they expensive? - More than the whole place. - For real?
Really.
He also said that someone swapped these two... dolls' positions.
They do look exactly the same, huh?
Can you tell them apart?
He said the pupil color was different.
This is Miyazono Kaori. This is Saber.
Yeah, right. That's what he said.
Go see if there's anything else.
Come here.
Here is a game copyright contract.
"Ice & Fire Throne"
These 4 people created a game.
It gives authorization for five years; expiring just this year.
- ¥40,000,000?! - This much money?!
Each of them got ¥10,000,000.
Wow!
Huang Jialun was rich.
Four people's signature. Four people in total.
It should be these four.
Isn't this that guy, Gu Xingwei?
Gu Xingwei?
Just a few months ago,
that programmer who killed himself, Gu Xingwei.
He broke up with his... model girlfriend
and killed himself.
The media said she didn't love him, only his money. It was big news. You don't know?
That's to say that in one picture, one guy is dead and another guy, too.
So are these two are dead?
Don't jinx them. And anyway one died of asthma
and the other one by suicide. It wasn't murder.
Suicide for love.
It's all...
- men. - Men.
Four people.
Did you hear a noise?
I did. I think it was outside.
There's someone in the bedroom.
Everybody freeze!
Raise your hands!
- Kneel down, quick! - Put the guns down!
- Hey, brother, we're... - Put the gun down!
We're from Hua... We're from Hua City's Criminal Investigation Bureau.
We're on the same side. There's someone inside, have a look.
We're all on the same side, Brother.
Kneel down.
Your police ID. No problem.
We showed you right away and you still dragged us here. It's on purpose!
We received a report about you breaking and entering.
Even if you're from Criminal Investigations,
you all think you're so great that you can do whatever you want.
Say that again.
Let's go. You're in a bad mood today. Is that it?
If you're in a bad mood say it, it can be treated.
Leave!
Are you in charge of the incoming calls tonight?
Who called the police?
Hey, I'm asking you! Who called the police this evening?
It's very important!
Hey! You guys don't want to leave, is that it?
Fine, arrest them both.
Come in.
By Chief Dong's command, he wants you to make a full report on Wang Ke's corpse.
Chief Dong wants to use this for a commendation conference.
To examine it again. Didn't I do it the other day already?
How should I do it?
You're still asking me?
Didn't Chief Dong write a very clear report?
Chief Zhang's murderer, Wang Ke, was shot dead by our Hua City police squad.
You have to let everyone know that the guy who died was Wang Ke.
Just do what Chief Dong says. Come on.
Drink a little less. I'm leaving.
Where is Chi Zhen?
Where is he?
I've already told him that I wouldn't examine it.
Why does he insist on bringing the body to the Autopsy Branch?
Those two people are also looking for Chi Zhen.
What people?
Huang Jialun's parents.
They said that Chi Zhen wanted them to come.
Huang Jialun?
The one who died yesterday from asthma.
Tell them that
their son is in my morgue.
Regarding my child, Huang Jialun, what's the problem?
Where is Chi Zhen?
At the district bureau.
He and Eggy Boy were kept there for the night.
Director Liu.
Xiao Lu.
Your sub-bureau is good at arresting people from the Crime Investigation Bureau.
Xiao Lu, those two police officers,
we'd already let them go.
When they show their police officer IDs, naturally we have to release them.
But you don't know.
The ruckus they caused yesterday.
No matter how much trouble they create, you can't arrest officers from the Crime Investigation Bureau.
Right now, let them go.
I am taking them immediately.
- All right. - All right.
There is still one more person in there.
He knows that our presence was blocking him from leaving.
He called the police.
Four people, four signatures.
There are two people dead already.
Four of them signed the document?
Four of them signed the document.
There was a very famous story.
Four people from India stole a treasure chest.
In the end, only one person survived.
This case is really the IT version of "Four Signatures."
I really don't understand what the codes mean at all,
but maybe this is the treasure chest.
Four sets of codes.
That represents ¥40,000,000.
It was authorized for five years. The contract will expire this year.
Now, two are already dead. Two remain.
This... is this not problematic?
Three people are already dead.
What?
Three people are already dead.
It's not just your nose that smells something off.
I also feel like something is not right.
Look. The bald one.
His name is Liu Hao. He died of lung cancer a few months ago.
Do you know that certain statistics indicate that
a person's average rate of death by natural causes
is 7.76%.
But between the ages of 20 and 30,
their mortality rate is not even 1.8%.
These four people know each other.
Suddenly, three people have died; it's not normal.
Not to mention that someone actually reported in advance.
So, now, you also agree this situation has a problem?
But we still can't open an investigation.
You were a lawyer before, so you know.
Everything needs to have evidence.
The police filing also needs evidence.
Unless you can prove that
this is a murder,
only then I can open a case for you.
Then have people work on this matter; but right now,
besides Gu Xingwei,
the other people didn't even commit suicide.
How can I open a case for you?
I don't even have permission to investigate this case, Big Brother!
The moment I even investigate a little bit,
the cops from the sub-bureau just arrest me.
I can't give you anything right now.
You can only investigate on your own.
- Where is this? - He Yunfei's company.
Four people with ¥10,000,000 each.
Only He Yunfei took his out to start a venture.
The 13th and 14th floors are both his.
It's just him...
to start a business?
If you can't find out why,
you'll be considered as having left your post without authorization,
disorderly behavior, and misuse of official position.
You won't be able to work here anymore later.
I will be damned. What are you doing?
Which floor again?
- 13th and 14th. - 13th and 14th.
Sir, may I ask who are you looking for?
I'm looking for Director He Yunfei.
Sorry, but he is currently meeting with clients.
Sir, please, don't charge in without permission.
- Sir, please stay here. - I'm a police officer on a case.
What's with the noise? Director He is in a meeting.
Didn't he say he won't meet any guests today? Tell him to go.
Sun Shangwen?
Chi Zhen?
How come you are here?
- Long time no see. - Long time no see.
Lawyer Chi, I heard from other people that you became a police officer.
That's quite imposing.
Is Director He available? I want to ask him a few questions.
Director He is in a meeting.
How about since we haven't seen each other in so long, we go and have a drink and talk?
I really can't today.
I just want to ask him a few--
Director He, right?
I'm a police officer. I want to ask you a few questions.
I didn't break the law, so I won't talk to the police.
If you have any questions, you can talk to my lawyer.
Lawyer Sun, I'm passing him over to you.
Can I just ask you a few questions and then I'll leave? Is that okay?
Your old dorm roommates: Liu Hao,
Gu Xingwei and Huang Jialun, you probably know them well.
Lawyer Sun, you speak with him.
They all died, one by one.
Huang Jialun is also dead?
He just died yesterday afternoon.
I won't deal with the police.
They are all your old dorm roommates! They died--
- Chi Zhen! - I'm just asking a few questions! Move aside!
Don't disregard the dignity we're showing you!
Let me tell you this. Do you really think you're the messenger of justice?
- All of us look down on you! - What do you mean?
All of the lawyers look down on you.
I'm already being quite courteous towards you.
So, as the lawyer representing CEO He,
I have to tell you that if you want to talk to him,
get us a court subpoena.
Your merely a smelly cop?
Hey!
Let go.
Don't force me to use the methods I used against cops on you.
Hey! That's enough. Please leave.
Leave.
Everything is all right. Go back to your work.
Hello? Listen to me. I don't care if you're opening the investigation or not.
I'm applying for the warrant to arrest He Yunfei immediately!
Hello? Hello?
I've cracked the phone's password. It's empty.
There's nothing inside.
Just one phone call record. He didn't call anyone.
3330 is your number, right?
Whose phone is this?
Last time, Mr. Chi asked me to forge that passport, the one with the name Kong Ming,
was it for you, too? What happened to that person?
Hello?
Oh, okay. I'll come right now.
I'm leaving.
What about the phone?
Leave it here first. Check it again.
Call me, if there's any new information.
Hey, beautiful. Beautiful.
Play with me.
Go away!
Come on!
- Let go. - Let's go.
I told you to let go!
Wait for me.
I'll wait for you.
My name is Chi Zhen.
Chi Zhen, I'll remember you.
I'll remember you!
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Let me see.
How did you get that?
I'll bring you home.
Hold on tight.
We're here.
How are you going back?
I'll ride this back. I'll send it back to you tomorrow morning.
Do you want to go up and sit for a while?
It's already very late now.
I should go back and rest.
Okay.
Hey!
I might be leaving this city.
You take care.
Where are you going?
I don't know yet.
But I don't want to be a lawyer or a cop anymore.
They've forced me until I have no other way out.
I can only leave.
That's right.
A city like Hua City
has nothing to hold you back.
Then, why aren't you going back to Macao?
Since I'm already here, I have to strive for something. Right?
I don't want to go back empty handed.
When I've obtained what I want, I'll leave.
Then, I wish you good luck.
I wish you good luck, too.
Are you sure you won't come up for a drink?
I think I won't.
Okay. Bye.
[Eighteen Diner on the Sea]
[Closed Temporarily]
What is it?
Why is the door closed? Has something bad happened?
Nothing. You go back first.
Who is Mr. Chen talking to?
Do I know him?
Is Chief Dong here?
This matter has nothing to do with you.
I came all the way here just to tell him--
I'll say it again.
This matter has nothing to do with you.
Don't create trouble for yourself.
Go!
If I'm really going to die,
no matter how normal my death is,
you must file it as a homicide case to investigate.
(Four signatures)
[GAME CODE] [SYSTEM CC CODING] [FIRE & ICE INTROCODING]
[Confidential]
But I still can't open this investigation for you.
Everything needs evidence.
The police also needs evidence to open an investigation.
All of us who are lawyers look down on you.
You're just a smelly cop.
You go back first. Don't create trouble for yourself.
Which one should I eat today?
You are quite lucky.
[Incoming call : Lu Li]
Speak!
You chatted with that He Yunfei once.
Why didn't you write the report?
I didn't find out anything during the chat.
Furthermore, you won't file the case even when Huang Jialun has died.
What report am I going to write?
Write up a report. Get ready.
We're setting out. He Yunfei just died.
How did he die?
Not cancer. Not asthma.
And he also didn't kill himself because of love.
It's a real murder.
