[Ordinary Greatness]

[Episode 32]

[Warmth in winter]

Master.

When we were in the police academy,

such case was talked about.

Many criminals like to leave a mark

when they commit crimes.

This is probably a mark for him.

He entered the bedroom

and searched the bedside cabinet.

After taking such a big risk,

it's very likely that he's carrying a weapon.

As for the kitchen knife on the table,

I think it's a habit.

That makes sense.

-Look. -It's here.

This one?

Yes.

He went to the south highway around the city.

The south highway around the city.

He lives in the south.

Look. Look at this.

Here.

Down here is the Liuhang Town.

He lives in Liuhang?

That's easy.

Zhang.

I'm sorry.

Our people caused you trouble again.

What are you talking about?

Your people

gave us a chance to make contributions.

Let's make a deal first.

If we catch him,

whose is he?

Of course he'll be ours.

He committed the crime in our place

and we found him first.

He's ours.

Zhang,

we also have

the mission of 100 days without burglary.

How about this?

We'll help you investigate.

But it's on one condition.

If we catch him, let him stay.

He'll be ours.

Let's catch him first.

Okay.

Let's go and take a look first.

[The Liuhang Police Station]

This car [The Liuhang Police Station]

[The Liuhang Police Station]

has never come out

after entering a blind spot.

Maybe his home is nearby.

What's there?

This is a residential area.

But as far as we know,

most of the residents here

went to work in the city and don't come back.

There aren't many thefts.

Could it be that

he works in the city

and made off with something when came home

almost the Spring Festival?

If it's really like what you said,

he must be experienced.

But isn't the police station in charge of the experienced ones?

It seems not there.

Why don't we go there and take a look?

Let's go.

Jiwei, let's go.

Master.

I have a stomachache suddenly.

Why don't you go with them?

I'll keep monitoring here.

Okay.

Then you stay here.

Let's go.

Mrs. Zhang,

find a place to have a rest.

I'll talk to you later.

Let's go, Bao.

Let's go over there.

Officer Xia, what do you think we should do about this?

What is it?

That old lady

has been here several times.

Her last name is Zhang.

We all call her Mrs. Zhang.

She has no children

and rely on the subsistence allowance and picking up garbage to make a living.

That little girl

was a abandoned baby found

when she picked up garbage six years ago.

She have raised the girl until the girl was six and a half years old.

Now the girl is going to school in September.

She comes

to register the child.

It's not in line with the residency policy.

Yes.

The girl has no birth certificate.

And they didn't go through

the formal adoption procedures.

Besides,

the old lady is 76 years old this year.

The two of them are exactly 70 years apart.

It's not in line with the adoption policy.

The child has to go to school.

But she can't enroll in school

without the household registration.

-Officer Xia. What should we do? -Grandma, look.

Here.

Grandma, smile.

Grandma.

Officer,

I've been here five times.

Can you register my daughter?

Grandma.

This child is calling you...

She used to call me grandma.

But the officer said

she could be registered when we have an adoptive relationship.

So I let her change in calling me.

Call me mom.

You...

Come, Bao.

Call me mom.

You...

How can you be registered if you don't call me?

What should we do in the future?

Are you named Bao?

Bao, here.

Bao, hurry.

Hurry up. We always meet good people.

Take it.

You should thank the officer.

Thank you, officer.

You're welcome.

After you go to school, you have to study hard.

Grandma.

Your situation is indeed complicated.

You can't register this time.

Take the child back first

and don't have to come here anymore.

I promise you

I will help you find

the most appropriate way to solve.

The child should register

to attend school.

Won't it delay her attending school?

No, I promise.

Grandma, you have a hard life.

Don't waste your time on coming to the police station.

Go back first.

I'll figure it out for you.

Okay, thank you, thank you.

You're welcome.

-Thank you. -Let me see you off.

Bao, let's go.

Go.

Great.

Bao, you are six years old.

Can you take care of grandma now?

Then you should listen to your grandma.

Grandma, I'm hungry.

-Grandma, I'm hungry. -Okay, let's go home and have dinner.

Miss, goodbye.

This...

I'll come back later.

Grandma,

can you buy me a drumstick?

Sure. Sure.

Do you know

your ID number?

Yes.

Then fill this out.

Then sign

below where you should sign.

Sign here.

Officer Xia.

Why did you bring the trash bag back?

Grandma said she'll pick it up later.

I think it's inappropriate to put it at the door.

And I'm afraid it would be lost.

So I brought it in.

This old lady is so funny.

She didn't take the garbage bag away

but with the twice coming.

Have you filled this out?

Yes.

OK, wait a moment.

Chief. Instructor.

Are you going out?

Yes, we're going to the bureau for a meeting.

What's the matter?

An old lady surnamed Zhang

adopted an abandoned baby.

The child is about to go to school,

but she doesn't have the household registration.

I know it.

-Chief, I've reported it to you. -Yes.

The old lady

must not in line the requirements of adopting a child.

We can't let her registered.

But that girl is going to be seven soon.

She can't go to school without the household registration.

Xia Jie,

the station

attaches great importance to this at first too.

The instructor

has been going to the civil affairs bureau

for many times.

Don't mention the difficulty of the policy.

There's a problem that we can't avoid.

The old lady is 76 years old.

But the child is only six years old.

What if

the old lady can't make it,

what about the child?

Then what should we do

about the child attending school now?

Send her to the Social Welfare Center.

Welfare center?

Xia Jie, from the long run,

it's beneficial to the child's health growth

and education.

The welfare center is the best choice.

Yes.

We'll go to the bureau for a meeting first.

Then we'll take a look at the welfare center when we're free.

-Okay? -Okay.

This is weird.

Weird.

We saw him go in,

but why can't we find him?

Yeah.

Don't worry.

How big is Liuhang in total?

As long as he belongs here,

I will find a way to catch him.

Master! Master!

What's wrong?

I have a clue. Let's go.

I think

there are many surveillance cameras

from the city to Liuhang.

He wears a hoodie

every time he commits the crime.

Isn't he afraid

the surveillance followed his car

all the way here?

So I reasoned backwards.

He came to Liuhang for so long.

It's probably just a cover-up.

I didn't expect that, Master.

I've made some progress.

Look.

This is his car.

Although he changed the plate,

master,

you reminded me

there was a obvious crack

on his windshield glass.

This crack,

when passing through the intersection with street lights,

would have a very obvious reflection.

So he thought

he could fool us.

When he went back,

he didn't wear the hoodie.

Look.

The CCTV clearly

caught his face.

Good boy. You're really something.

It's really him.

Well done, Zhang.

There are no weak troops under a capable general.

I'm not a capable general.

He's much better

than the young me.

He's a top detective at the police academy.

Impressive, bro.

It's really good.

Don't listen to the social rumors.

The country has increased the investment of social welfare.

The condition of the welfare center

is getting better.

What they need

is not just food and clothing.

Go in and have a look.

They also want

mom's embrace and company.

In this aspect, definitely

the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.

Are there many holes

on the tangerine?

Mom! Mom!

Mom! Mom!

The children here

call them mothers when they meet adult women.

Come on.

They lack nothing

but mothers' love.

Are you well-behaved today?

Yes.

So beautiful.

Kiss.

Go play.

He has a magical flute.

Then do you know...

We can pick her up.

Register her household here.

We'll send her to school then.

That's our responsibility.

President Xu.

What is it?

There's a situation here

that needs you to go over.

Go ahead.

Officer Xia, then I won't see you out.

Goodbye.

OK.

Then I'll

report to you on this case.

We've contacted the Xianqianjie Police Station.

The night before yesterday,

the same person

stole in two houses in their jurisdiction.

Then the next night,

he entered Yinfeng Community in our jurisdiction.

In the past two nights,

the total value of his theft

was more than 80,000 yuan.

It's a huge crime value.

After he left our jurisdiction,

he went straight to Liuhang Town in the south of the city.

He changed the plate in the blind spot of Liuhang,

then he turned around.

He got on the south highway around the city

and kept going north.

He got off the highway

200 kilometers away in north of Qibei

and entered Qibei City.

Finally he disappeared in a residential community.

According to our initial judgment,

this thief is from Qibei.

Based on the situation,

he should stay in Qibei for the Spring Festival.

If we go there now,

we should be able to catch him.

Captain Luo,

look, this case involves

over 80,000 yuan.

It's a big case.

The criminal police group should handle with it.

80,000 is a big case for you.

But it's really not for us.

Chief Wang, I'm not dodging.

Some time ago

there were two robbery and murder cases occurred in the city.

One of them

hasn't been broken yet.

The whole team

was on these two cases.

I haven't slept for 48 hours.

I agree with Zhijie.

This guy is currently in Qibei.

I suggest

contacting the Qibei police

and ask them to help solve the case.

Luo,

Qibei is only over 200 kilometers

from here, right?

But it's not in our province.

This case

is not too big or too small.

It's hard to attract the attention of the higher-ups.

It must be inconvenient to coordinate.

Why don't we go there ourselves

and arrest them?

Then

put it after the Spring Festival.

His belongs to Qibei.

He can't escape.

If we do it before the Spring Festival,

I can't get any help.

Captain Luo,

we need to solve the case,

but we also need our lives.

Look at what you have become

in this state.

By the way,

if you are not on duty during the Spring Festival,

let's play together

to upgrade?

Upgrade what?

If the case was solved before the Spring Festival,

we'll be upgraded.

If it is not,

don't upgrade,

just degrade.

Bye.

Okay.

Take a nap in the car.

Okay, don't worry.

See you.

Chief, I think

as long as we can locate this area, it could be dealt with.

Chief, Chief Gao.

I don't think it's a big problem.

Chief,

what should we do?

What should we do?

Chief, I don't think we can wait for this case.

Look.

The 100-day operation

is officially over on the 30th of the lunar year.

If we can't catch him,

it means we still have a case to solve.

Then the 100-day operation will be ruined.

Chief Gao is right.

And this is a new year's case.

If the case are not solved at the beginning of the year,

the cases next won't go smoothly.

Truly.

So I suggest

catching him

for good luck.

You're a materialist. How can you be superstitious?

Well, it's not...

That is...

Okay, it's the new year.

Let's be superstitious.

Then who's going?

Sir.

Come in.

Xincheng.

Chief Cheng.

Chief, please come out.

I have something to ask you.

Chief, it's cold outside.

I'll make it short.

The Spring Festival is coming.

I want to leave all my annual leave

in the Spring Festival.

I'm going to the Northeast of China.

Why are you going to the Northeast of China?

Well,

it's about Yue Wei.

Li Dawei and I

watched his surveillance video all day

but found nothing.

Maybe he really has nothing.

Yeah.

But I always think

something is wrong.

So I want to take advantage of the Spring Festival

to visit his hometown.

And go to

the police station where he used to work

to learn more about the situation

and see if there's any new discovery.

That's a good idea.

Right.

But don't use your annual leave.

Take it as a business trip.

No.

We're not even sure

if we can find anything new.

Just take it as Dawei and I

are going on a trip.

But, Chief,

about this time we go to the Northeast of China,

please keep it a secret for a while.

OK, keep it a secret.

I know.

Okay, you can go in first.

Hello.

Where does Mrs. Zhang live?

Turn right at the end.

-Thank you. -At the end.

Bao.

Grandma! Grandma!

The police is here.

Grandma.

You're here.

Can you register now?

My eyelids are twitching so early in the morning.

I wonder if you can come today.

See if it works.

Grandma, I didn't buy anything.

You and Bao can eat these fruits and snacks.

I'll put them here.

I also bought a bag.

There are a set of stationery.

Bao is going to school in summer.

Bao, look,

what did sister bring to you.

Take it.

Why don't you say thanks.

What did I teach you?

Thank you, officer.

You're welcome.

Open it and have a look.

Miss, come in.

-Come in. -I'm not going in, grandma.

I'm not going in. I'm not going in.

Well...

Grandma, I'm here to tell you...

I know. I know.

Is that we can register now?

When are we going?

Well, the household registration... Grandma.

Look how beautiful this bag is.

Why didn't you call me mom?

She doesn't even let us registered.

When can we do it?

Well...

Grandma, here's the thing.

I'm afraid you can't wait.

I came to tell you first.

About Bao,

we're in the process of asking the higher-ups.

Please believe that

there will be a good result.

Xia Jie.

we

can't just look at the present.

Think about it.

The old lady is 76 this year.

If she dies one day,

the child will completely

become an orphan.

What will you do then?

So,

in the long run,

sending to the social welfare center

is the best way.

Chief, go to Mrs. Zhang's house and have a look.

If now take the girl

from their house,

is a harm to both of them.

After sending the child

to the social welfare center,

the old lady could

visit her often.

Chief, you're kind-hearted.

Look at the grandma and Bao,

they're like a whole.

If we have to tear them apart,

it's too cruel.

How are we cruel?

There is no policy.

But policies are dead.

People are alive.

So we need to think of a way now.

By the way, the instructor

is in charge of the household registration.

Go find her.

Let her think of a way.

Go.

Guoguo, let's go home.

Guoguo, let's go home.

We're going home.

On the 7th of every month,

we'll visit your home.

Every three months,

you bring her back for a medical examination.

Besides, if anything happens,

you can contact us anytime.

OK.

Guoguo, come home with me.

Are you happy?

No.

No?

Then would I give you a hug?

Give you a hug.

Okay, take care.

Okay, thank you.

You're welcome.

Thank you.

Take care on the way.

OK. Bye.

Guoguo, bye.

Bye.

Hello.

Is the president not back?

No, I just want to ask.

What was that?

Just now, we found a substitute mother

for a child again.

A substitute mother?

That is...

Our welfare center signed a contract

with her family

and let one of our children

to her family for adoption.

Both parties have agreed

on the terms of the child's adoption.

We will pay a certain subsidy every month.

But

it requires certain conditions.

That's great.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Have a seat inside.

No, I'll wait outside.

Okay, go ahead.

Okay, bye.

Bye.

This one.

Grandma.

Coming.

Grandma, where is Bao?

Bao wants to eat tomatoes on sticks.

I gave her five yuan.

She went to buy tomatoes on sticks.

This...

Grandma, let's talk inside.

Okay.

Slowly. Come.

Slowly.

Over there.

Here.

Come in.

Thank you.

Grandma, I put it on the table.

Grandma.

Grandma, it's only three yuan.

Good girl.

Grandma, take a bite.

Take a bite. It's sweet.

I don't want it.

Look at her.

She always thinks of me when she eats.

I'm not eating. You eat.

Grandma, bite it.

It's so sweet.

How much did you say

the old lady's subsistence allowance is per month?

680 yuan for a child a month.

She's over 60 years old

has increased 30 percent.

They two together

have about 1,600 or 1,700 yuan

a month.

Our subsidy is

1,000 yuan a month.

Although it's less than 3,000 yuan together,

it can help.

President, you mean...

You agree?

Thank you so much, president.

They don't need to be apart.

They'll be satisfied

with just a little happiness.

Thank you so much.

You're welcome.

Here, have some water.

Grandma.

Grandma, stop working.

Grandma, bite again.

You...

Eat it yourself.

Good girl, eat it yourself.

Eat it yourself.

Bite it.

[Shopping Street for the Spring Festival]

Jia, don't pack them all for me.

What are you eating for the Spring Festival?

I have.

I can buy it then.

Jia, your mom called

that she would spend the Spring Festival with you.

I can spend it myself.

Jia.

It's not easy for your mother.

I can tell

she really misses you.

I know, but she...

I guess it's Dawei.

-Jia, you're home. -Dawei.

Jia.

I heard that your painting

was chosen

by the youth art exhibition, right?

Every dog has its day.

Why are there so many dogs?

Introduce one to me.

Let me tell you.

She was embarrassed

when I asked her to send it.

How did it go?

Two were sent.

One was chosen at that time

for the official competition.

What about the other one?

It was sent to the gallery.

I have the good taste.

Master,

we asked Jia

to open an online shop to sell paintings,

it would affect the future of a great painter.

Dawei.

Alright, stop it.

Dawei,

you can't spend the Spring Festival with your mom.

Is that okay?

Yes.

You don't know.

Xia Jie's mom and my mom

are going to be the rotten ginger that can't be broken.

They are together every day.

They quarrel every day.

They can't live without each other.

They must be together during the Spring Festival.

Jia, what about you?

Your sister Xia Jie

must be celebrating the Spring Festival with them.

Why don't you join them?

Sure.

Then I'll spend with Xia Jie.

-Okay. -I'll spend with Xia Jie.

OK. My mom will have one more daughter.

She is my daughter.

Give it to me.

Okay.

Have you brought enough clothes?

-Yes. -I'm almost finished.

Are you okay in this?

Fine.

By the way,

Jia,

you must close the door

every night.

And check the gas.

Got it.

When you're free,

remember to call your mom

during the Spring Festival, okay?

Okay, don't come out.

Tell me what you want to eat.

I'll bring for you from the Northeast of China.

Enough. Stop mumbling.

I heard it.

Bye.

Bye. Dad, be careful.

Okay.

Cooperate with

the Qibei police

and get their support.

Stay alert.

You must have enough police.

Don't take the risk.

Du, drive slowly.

OK.

-I'm leaving. -Be careful.

Drive slowly.

Be careful.

Here.

Okay.

Come in.

Okay.

Okay.

OK.

You two take a rest here.

I'll go get the chief.

Okay.

Have a seat.

Master,

this place is really exciting.

The inside and outside are really different.

Dawei.

Yue Wei

was at your age back then.

If you have been living in this kind of place,

what would you think all day long?

It depends if he went out or not,

whether he had seen the outside world.

If not,

it's a good job

to be an auxiliary police here.

But if he had seen,

it's not sure.

Officer Chen.

This is our deputy chief, Chief Niu.

Hello, Chief Niu.

Happy New Year. Happy New Year.

Happy New Year.

The chief is having a meeting in the city.

It's snowy.

I don't think he'll be back tomorrow.

Chief Niu, look.

Sorry to have troubled you during the Spring Festival.

What are you talking about?

You come here to work on a case during the Spring Festival.

You've worked hard.

But

I'm afraid I can't help you.

What do you mean?

We checked the person you mentioned.

He did work here for three years.

But it's been fifteen or sixteen years since he left here.

It's been too long.

Almost no one in the station knows him.

That's impossible.

People who was a policeman 15 or 16 years ago

is only in his 40s now.

You don't know.

It's called a police station here.

There are only five or six people.

Look at our conditions.

Especially after cutting trees was not allowed in the zone,

there are few people.

There's not much work.

Young people don't want to work here.

Old comrades

want to transfer to the city.

There's a large personnel mobility.

People who worked here 15 or 16 years ago

couldn't be found now.

They are everywhere.

I see.

But our former chief

retired here.

When we chatted,

we asked about that person.

He remembers vaguely.

-If you're interested... -Yes. Yes, yes, yes.

Can we see him?

Ma, contact Chief Zhou.

Okay. Okay.

Thank you, Chief Niu. Thank you.

It's land on my feet.

[Taling Station of Qibei Public Security Bureau]

The residential area you mentioned [Taling Station of Qibei Public Security Bureau]

The residential area you mentioned

is a bit complicated.

Go ahead.

The main ingredients of the residents

are farmers from three surrounding villages.

They moved in for non-agricultural.

It's a

converted community.

Two months ago,

they had been making a scene

and there were two armed battles.

It took us a lot of effort

to calm down.

Today is the 29th day of the lunar year.

Tomorrow is the 30th.

At this sensitive moment,

if the police go in and look for people,

there might be unnecessary misunderstandings.

If something happens,

we can't even celebrate this year well.

So our bureau discussed it.

We hope solve it after the Spring Festival.

First of all, thank you, Chief Liu,

for giving us such detailed explanation.

We understand what you said.

But look,

we came all the way here.

How about this?

we change into plain clothes

and go in quietly to have a look.

Because we have his photos.

The characteristic of the car is also obvious.

It won't be hard to find it.

Zhang,

normally,

you can go in and find it if you want.

What time is it now?

It's the Spring Festival.

Everyone has gone home for it.

Some foreigners in plain clothes

come to the community

for no reason.

It's hard not to draw others' attention.

So,

our opinion

is to wait until after the Spring Festival.

Brother,

your working conditions are really hard.

Is it hard?

Much better than the people.

All would envy

the one who become the police.

Did you graduate from the police academy?

No.

I'm an auxiliary police.

My dad was a policeman.

He got injured later.

I was taken care of to join the police.

But I'm thinking of getting into the police academy.

So,

aren't you going to

work here for a long time?

It's so frustrating to stay here.

There are fewer and fewer people here.

Sometimes I'm scared of

on night duty alone.

Ma.

Is here

always so deserted?

Of course not.

It turns out that our forest area is very lively.

People are here to cut trees,

processing and transport wood.

But after the mountain was sealed

and stopped cutting.

The forestry workers became forestry protectors.

There's no need so many people.

It's getting more deserted.

How many years has it been?

It was lively here when I was young.

But after I went to school,

it's getting worse.

We're almost there.

It's the village ahead.

Ma.

Stop the car for me

when pass by the supermarket or shop later.

Okay.

Master.

Are we going back like this?

Of course not.

We finally got here.

If he run after the Spring Festival,

where can we chase him?

Let's find a place to stay first.

Du,

check if there is a hotel ahead.

Okay.

Chief Zhou.

Chief Zhou.

Alright, stop calling.

This is the two comrades from Pingling

I told you in the call.

Hello, Chief Zhou.

Happy New Year. Happy New Year.

I'm Chen, Chen Xincheng.

OK.

Hello, Chief Zhou.

My name is Li Dawei.

I'm his apprentice.

His apprentice.

Just come.

Why are you buying for me?

It's the Spring Festival.

Hurry up.

It's warm inside. Come in.

Chief Zhou, you have a talk first.

I won't come in.

Officer Chen, I'll pick you up tonight.

Okay.

Okay. Thank you, Officer Chen.

You're welcome.

No.

Come on. Come in. It's warm inside.

-No, I have something to do in the station. -Please come in first.

Okay.

Honey, come here.

Take the things over.

-Come in. Come in.-Okay.

It's so warm inside.

Here, kid.

Take off your shoes and get on the bed.

It's warm there.

Chief Zhou,

here's really interesting.

It was just four o'clock this afternoon

and it's already dark.

That's all here.

It's so hot.

It gets dark quickly and lights up quickly.

Really?

Let me do it.

You just talk to them.

Coming.

Here.

Here's the noodles. Be careful not to get burned.

Thank you. Thank you.

And more?

Come on, brothers.

You go first.

Hurry up.

Turn around slowly. Don't get burned.

Come on, guys.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I'll treat you to full. Just eat as much as you can.

You two serve first. You two serve first.

Eat up. Eat up.

I'm curious.

Every time I go on a business trip,

I feel that the food outside

tastes very good.

Then eat more.

You won't miss home when you're full.

I shouldn't have said that.

Are you homesick?

I'm not homesick anyway.

I'm alone

at the station anyway.

I can't go home.

I don't miss home anyway.

If I don't go on a business trip,

I'm cleaning

in my mother-in-law's house now.

My wife always says

I'm usually not at home.

I couldn't take care for her family matters.

In the Spring Festival I'm on leave,

I should perform well.

I don't miss too.

My mother-in-law isn't here.

I don't do housework either.

But I can't escape

from the cleaning in the days before the year.

This time I would go on a business trip,

my wife said,

see, he's a deserter again.

Look at you.

You are independent to be the police.

All you know is the group,

not family.

I'm different from you.

I'm homesick.

I just want to finish the case quickly

then go home and have fun.

Eat up.

Let's go there after eating.

What if we run into him or the car?

If we finish the mission in advance,

we can take him back for the Spring Festival.

Eat up. Eat more.

Eat while it's hot. Come on.

Sister, sit here and eat together.

You eat first.

Chief Zhou, from what you said,

you valued Yue Wei so much back then.

If he continued to work in the police station,

he would have had a bright future.

Then why did he leave?

I don't know.

That kid is not like you.

He

is a person who can't see the bottom at a glance.

I took him out a few times

because of the cases.

I thought

maybe

he's knowledgeable

and become wild.

He wants to go out and make a career.

That's possible.

I've retired before he left.

Chief, this year you...

Seventy years old.

Chief Zhou,

if you're 70 years old this year,

then 15 or 16 years ago,

you shouldn't be the age of retirement.

At that time,

something happened in the station,

so I retired early.

What is it?

Well, come on, eat more.

Eat while it's hot. Eat while it's hot.
