Cut me some slack, will you? I'm a loyal customer.

It's only 50 bucks.

You're really gonna haggle?

I just want you to understand how draining it is to be an artist.

Why are you suddenly sounding like my mom today?

Same tone and everything.

As if. I'm not your mom.

I just think… dreams and reality

are not always the same.

So we can't just rush into things.

Gotta be sure before we act.

Wasn't it you who told me

to never give up on your dream?

Why the change of heart now?

You were so excited a few days ago, talking about

going to Stanford.

Now you seem totally off. What happened?

Stanford Medicine's off the table.

Why?

Someone else took my exchange spot.

Stanford said

I can still go, but only if I pay my own way.

You're a top student in biomedical science.

Your paper

got published in the SCI Journal.

You've gotta believe in yourself. You're brilliant.

Life's not some

yes-or-no quiz. We get more than one option.

You still have a shot at going abroad. It's your move.

Let me ask you this.

Do you love this field?

Of course I do.

Love, passion, or obsession? Which one is it?

What's the difference?

Love means it's nice to have.

Passion means

you'll get by without it, eventually.

Obsession means

you can't go a minute without it.

Then I'm definitely…

obsessed.

So what are you waiting for?

What are you doing?

If the exchange fell through, we'll pay full tuition.

There's 50 grand on this card.

Take it.

That's your hard-earned money.

Take it back.

I'm gonna win that spot back

myself.

Now that sounds like the An Lan I know.

Make it happen.

Let's get a picture.

DECEMBER 12, 2024, LATE NIGHT, LOOP DAY THREE

With the balance gone, aren't you suspicious of Mo Yuanzhi?

Of course I suspect him.

Someone died.

Why didn't you inform us?

What happened with that lab fire

at Ivy Bay University?

This case was assigned to you.

And

now the Moma investigation

links back to this old case you handled.

Why hand it off to us?

It was just a small lab fire case.

How was I supposed to know it was tied to Moma?

Just a small case?

What about Jiang Yuwen?

Is he dead or alive?

- Come with me. - Where are we going?

Just follow me.

The fire broke out on November 6, 2016,

a little after 8 p.m.

The lab suddenly caught fire.

It spread so fast that by the time firefighters got inside,

the lab was nearly destroyed.

No survivors. No bodies.

The report says a professor was inside.

Check again.

We checked many times.

The lab is full of chemicals.

Once the fire is out and the area cleared, pull out.

Copy that.

Everyone, fall back!

The surveillance camera was right here.

It clearly recorded the lab door before and after the fire.

Jiang Yuwen was seen going in at 8:05 p.m.

Besides the footage,

there were students hanging around outside the basement exit.

Many of them saw Jiang enter too.

But no one saw him leave.

Mo Yuanzhi was among the witnesses.

Half a minute later, the place exploded.

Which means Mo Yuanzhi had a solid alibi.

Did you search for Jiang Yuwen afterward?

We searched for a long time.

There was no trace. That's why it became a cold case.

What about You Yuxiang?

Was he connected to this?

He came to us after it happened.

Said he saw Mo Yuanzhi kill Jiang Yuwen with his own eyes.

Claimed the floor was covered in blood, and he used a dagger.

But I didn't buy it.

There was no evidence.

No suspect, no blood, no body.

Are you saying

- Mo Yuanzhi had a motive for murder? - No.

In fact, according to our findings,

the one who lost the most in that fire

wasn't Jiang Yuwen. It was Mo Yuanzhi.

He was on the verge of a major breakthrough.

The data he'd been working on was burned to nothing.

Burned to nothing…

I heard the police called you in.

What did they ask you?

I heard they questioned you too.

What did they ask you?

Didn't you see the news today?

I told them about our marriage.

Tried to prove I'm not the one who tried to kill you.

What else?

I told them

you…

never loved me.

Hi,

I'm the new intern. Just here to report in.

Where'd you graduate from?

Ivy Bay University.

Biomedical engineering, straight-through master's.

Five years of scholarships.

Pretty impressive. Take a seat…

Thanks.

This department's all about clinical experience.

If you're unsure about anything, just ask.

I'll count on your guidance.

I'm Mo Yuanzhi.

Feng Wanqing.

Dr. Zhao, this issue of The Lancet

has an article on oncology.

- It could help our clinical work. - Dr. Zhao.

The patient in bed nine's crashing.

Let's go take a look.

Push 0.5 milligrams of fentanyl, IV.

0.5 milligrams fentanyl, IV.

Dr. Zhao,

what's her…

Grade four spinal tumor.

Fentanyl injection complete.

- Keep monitoring her vitals closely. - Got it.

Dr. Zhao.

Could we maybe consider increasing the dosage a bit?

Hospital policy says this is the limit.

But given how much pain she's in,

0.5 milligrams might not be enough…

You here to school me?

- Not at all. - Textbook rules don't apply in real cases.

Nurse…

Please…

Just give me a bit more.

I'm really sorry. We have strict rules.

It hurts so bad.

I'll buy you bubble tea, okay?

What, here to pick my brain?

Dr. An, see you.

Bye.

Dr. An, see you.

Good night.

Judy? Still working this late?

Too many files to archive today.

I just wrapped up. Heading home now.

Actually, Judy, I wanted to ask you something.

I need access to some of our early data

for a comparison study,

but my clearance won't go through.

What's going on?

There's not much that can be done.

Our company is locked down tight

to guard against hacking.

Digital files are heavily restricted.

- Only Mr. Mo can grant access. - I get it.

What year are you looking for?

Starting from 2018.

That far back? It might not even be in the system.

Dr. An, even though you can't get into the digital files,

you're fully cleared for the physical archive.

Paper records are fine?

If you don't mind, I'd like to take a look.

You can read them here, but can't remove them.

Thanks.

Opening aisle 118.

Dr. An,

here's most of the early material you asked for.

Thanks.

2016 CLINICAL TRIAL LOGS

Judy…

I don't see the early gene sequence data here.

That should be further in.

Could you help me get it?

Sure. Just a second.

Thanks.

CLINICAL DRUG RESPONSE

Let's get a picture.

So Wanqing's disappearance is all tied to Moma.

Why couldn't I find it?

Check under your pillow.

There's a surprise for you.

Did your private investigator find what you wanted?

Let me guess.

You're probably going to tell the cops

I married you

for your family's money and social status,

right?

I'll admit it.

Your family ties

and your father's investment

were exactly what I needed at the time.

But that was years ago.

I've already replaced your father.

I'm the one backing you up now, aren't I?

Let's not kid ourselves.

Love fades.

But power sticks.

That's why…

you and I

make the perfect team.

What that professor from Ivy Bay University said…

Is it true?

Did you kill him?

No.

Many of them saw Jiang enter too.

But no one saw him leave.

Why does it feel like… I've died?

I want to request early deployment.

I just fell asleep.

At this hour…?

What is it now?

Gu Song, head to Mo Yuanzhi's place.

Kai, go after a guy named Ye Kun.

I'll send over his file and location.

Install a tracker if there's a window.

Everyone else, stand by.

So I decided to tail him.

But I didn't expect him…

Why are you still here?

I had to finish a report.

Sent the rest of the team home.

You seem a bit…

Something happened?

I was doing an experiment

and glanced at the monitor in my mom's room.

Her brainwave activity changed.

- I need to check on her now. - That's great news.

- Then go. - I'm off.

Go, Special Forces!

Hey, Sarge.

Sorry for calling this late.

But I need your help.

What's up? Who are we looking into?

Come out. I'll explain in person.

On my way.

Mom.

You're awake?

Mom.

Can you hear me?

If you can hear me, blink.

Peishan, help me run background checks on these three people.

Especially this one.

No matter what it takes,

find out where he's staying right now.

Not his registered address. Where he actually lives.

I'll send over his usual hangouts.

Wait a second.

Who's this?

The Squid.

The Squid?

You found him already?

Who are the other two?

His accomplices.

When did you figure this out?

Stop asking and get on it.

The Squid?

Accomplices?

Sarge, I just sent you the location

You better move fast.
