[The Wanted Detective]

As silk is stained with blood and old grudges,

[Capital of Qi]

souls break beneath the iron rule of law.

In the halls of power,

lie secret weapons

lurking in the dark.

Dark relics haunt the land,

corrupting the heart in an instant.

The Emperor of Qi,

[Lang Hua Pavilion]

in honor of the 48 loyal ministers

who had served the court for many years,

ordered the construction of a tall pavilion

[In harmony with heaven and earth]

and named it Lang Hua Pavilion.

Within the pavilion, one's position is set by order of merit.

Among them, the top-ranked ministers are

Lu Wenzhong,

[Lu Wenzhong]

Qin Ye,

Fan Jingzhi,

and Shen Bi,

who served as senior aides to the Emperor.

However,

something extremely strange happened

in front of everyone when the Emperor brought his ministers

to visit Lang Hua Pavilion

on the day of its opening.

Tears of blood flowed from the statues of the 4 distinguished ministers.

This is a bad omen.

The Emperor

ordered all who knew to stay silent.

But in the next few days,

all 4 ministers

met with misfortune

one after another.

As the bandits plague Suizhou, people are suffering.

Our disaster relief

must be executed quickly.

Rest assured, My Lord,

we'll ride at full speed

and arrive within three days.

My Lord!

-My Lord! -My Lord!

My Lord!

-My Lord! -My Lord!

[Yesha]

Master, this summer heat is unbearable.

You should rest early.

[Qin Residence]

It's okay.

Open the window for some fresh air.

Yes.

Master!

Master!

Master!

Help!

Help!

Hurry!

Master is on fire! Go!

Save Master!

[Yesha]

[Fan Residence]

Three senior aides

died mysterious, horrible deaths,

[Yesha]

causing panic throughout the imperial court of Qi.

Meanwhile, among the people,

strange phenomena have been appearing too.

With Yesha's descent, the Qi Kingdom will be doomed.

Look.

Why is it turning red?

Blood is seeping.

What's going on?

Why is there so much blood?

[Calming Waves]

[Episode 1]

All right, all right.

Let's eat.

-Put it away. -Okay.

Slowly.

Put it away.

Put everything back in its place.

Beiming, how is it?

Have you found any clues?

W-What is this?

Husk residue.

Get Lin Kang here.

You are Lin Shu's cousin, Lin Kang?

You said that after Lin Shu was paralyzed due to illness,

his temperament changed and became violent

as he was full of despair

and was unwilling to live on.

So he begged you to help him

end his life.

After repeated pleas, you ended his pain

to preserve his dignity.

Yes.

My Lord, you are wise.

You're lying.

If you really

could not bear to do it,

you must have been panicking.

Each stab should have been unpredictable.

But after the coroner examined the body,

the wounds on the victim were found to

have concentrated on the left chest.

There were no other wounds elsewhere.

It only goes to show how

calm and collected you were when you stabbed him.

Also,

you chose to kill him

on a rainy day was because

you wanted to use the sound

of the thunderstorm to cover up the murder.

My Lord,

Lin Shu and I were like real brothers.

After Lin Shu was paralyzed,

I took care of him personally.

I prepared all his meals meticulously.

With all I have done for him,

how could I possibly murder him?

Meticulous?

But why is it that I found husk residue

within the bed crevice?

You ate lavishly yourself,

while he's been

fed worse than a beggar.

Besides,

the coroner found that

his back and bum

were full of sores.

Is this your so-called

meticulous care?

You said Lin Shu changed a lot.

But even with his lower body is paralyzed,

he stretched his arm to feed

the sparrows on the windowsill

with his own meagre rations.

He was that kind.

And yet you said he was being violent and unpredictable?

No, this is just your speculation!

After Lin Shu was paralyzed,

you moved into the Lin Mansion

and lived like you were the Master.

You dismissed his servants

and tortured him.

Seeing how strong-willed he was to live,

you then thought of killing him.

After Lin Shu died,

you couldn't even wait past the seventh day

before hurrying to have the title deed changed.

The transaction date of the deed

[Seller: Lin Shu, Buyer: Lin Kang]

is clearly written here.

What else do you have to deny?

Lin Kang, you were completely heartless

in your killing of Lin Shu.

You did so not to end his pain,

but because you were

plotting to take over his property.

Finish your noodles

and let's go quickly.

That man is covered in blood.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Elite Constabulary Unit?

They came so fast.

Beiming.

Senior.

Waiter.

Two more bowls of noodles.

Ok, Constable Xiao.

[Yangchun Noodles]

Constable Xiao?

Constable Xiao?

I’m Xiao Beiming.

[Elite Constabulary Unit's Xiao Beiming]

-Constable Xiao. -Constable Xiao.

[Yangchun Noodles]

Lin Kang has been taken back to conclude the case.

But the higher-ups are pressing on

the case of Scholar Zhang.

How long has the body been parked in the morgue?

One day and one night.

His family is anxious

and is demanding answers from us.

We are almost done.

Jiang Yi.

I'll go return the body now.

Go arrest him.

Scholar Zhang did suffocate to death.

But it's not because of a lung disease,

but poison.

I found a bite mark of a rat

on his feet.

A rat?

It's no ordinary rat,

but a rare poisonous rat

called Blue-Eyed Silver Rat.

This rat's poison

can cause difficulty breathing

and eventually suffocate to death.

It looks just like a lung disease.

And this poison

cannot be detected with the usual methods.

We have to wait for a day and a night.

Jiang Yi.

Go back

and press a bun on the wound.

If the bun turns black,

we can catch them.

Arrest who?

The Blue-Eyed Silver Rat loves to eat purple snakeberries.

In the whole Zhang Mansion,

only his wife's nails

were purple.

That rat should be

in an earthen pot in her room.

Be careful when you arrest her.

Don't get bitten.

I'll get going.

That courtesan case

caused quite a stir not long ago.

Using the statement

from her neighbor Niu Lao'er,

I sketched out a potrait

of this thief.

Take a look.

Should we put up a

citywide manhunt notice?

You can put it up, but there's no need for a search.

Why?

Because there is no such person.

The wound on the courtesan’s neck

didn’t have any outward-tearing flesh.

Yet the flesh atop the head

was torn and turned outward.

It means

she died of a head injury,

but someone disguised it as a throat slit.

There was a knife at the scene,

but there were no blood stains at the point of impact.

If that's the case,

she didn't die at home.

Then who could be the murderer?

Since

the crime scene is fake,

the man who claimed to have seen

a robber entering a house and killing her,

and even saw the robber's true identity,

is also fake.

Niu Lao'er?

Put this sketch up.

When he sees it,

he will think that we believe him.

He will then let his guard down

to go and retrieve

the loot he had stolen and hidden away.

I'll go keep an eye on him

and catch him red-handed.

Beiming.

You're something.

[Yangchun Noodles]

Waiter,

the bill please.

Constable Xiao.

Constable Xiao.

All this only costs 10 copper coins.

I'm afraid—

Take it.

This silver is for you.

For me?

Your eyes are bloodshot.

Clearly, you lack rest.

You've got herbal residue on your sleeves and chest.

It should be from by decocting and feeding medicine all night.

Normally, your mother

will be here to prep the vegetables for you.

But I haven't seen her these days.

If I'm right,

she must be sick.

Constable Xiao, you're right.

My mother has been seriously ill these days.

I just wanted to sell more bowls of noodles

to save money for her medicine.

But I can't accept your money.

Take it. Use it on your mother.

Don't delay her treatment.

Thank you, Constable Xiao.

Beiming!

An envoy from the palace says

you and Master are to enter the palace at once.

This is the dossier.

[Dossier of the Yesha case]

Constable Xiao,

looking at your bloody clothes,

I thought a fugitive

might have escaped from the prison.

Constable Zhuge.

[Secret Investigation Unit's Zhuge Kongyun]

His Majesty entrusts all murder and major cases

in the capital

to us, the Elite Constabulary Unit.

It's so exhausting.

I would love to be like

your Secret Investigation Unit,

hiding within the taverns

eating, drinking

and having fun all day.

How chill and relaxing.

His Majesty hasn't decided

who will be in charge of this case.

Otherwise,

you wouldn't see me here.

Of course,

but this time,

it's likely going to be a futile trip

just as it was before.

You don’t really think

you’ll keep winning all the time, do you?

That's not all that difficult.

Clothes, please.

Your Majesty.

The rascal Yesha

killed our officials in public,

causing public outrage

and spreading fear among the people,

His evil deed deserves condemnation.

The Secret Investigation Unit is willing to arrest Yesha,

[Chief of Secret Investigation Unit, Zhuge Tong]

in order to ease your burden.

Your Majesty.

The Elite Constabulary Unit

is in charge of all criminal cases in the capital.

This case should rightfully

[Chief of Elite Constabulary Unit, Zhong Yunchi]

be handled by us.

The safety of court officials

has always been the responsibility of the Secret Investigation Unit.

This case should be

handled by us.

Enough.

Stop arguing.

What matters most now

is to solve this case quickly.

I actually have a suggestion.

Let the Secret Investigation Unit and the Elite Constabulary Unit

jointly investigate the case.

What do you think?

Your Majesty, I don't think it's advisable.

With too many people involved,

we might alert the culprit.

The Secret Investigation Unit is willing to take the case alone.

Just give us one month,

and we will surely solve it.

With a killer like Yesha,

one month from now, who knows how many of

my trusted ministers will still be alive?

Ten days.

Your Majesty,

I only need ten days.

Very well.

Then—

Three days.

Your Majesty,

I can solve the case in just three days.

Xiao Beiming.

This is the imperial court.

How dare you boast so recklessly before His Majesty?

Xiao Beiming,

I've heard of your deeds.

Lately,

you've unraveled case after case of great mystery.

truly a rare talent

of great value to the Qi Kingdom.

However,

is a three-day time limit

not rather

too rash a decision?

I'm not being rash, Your Majesty.

It's just that in three days,

I have a wedding.

I cannot afford any delays.

Thus,

I shall need no more than three days

to uncover the truth.

Beiming.

Very well.

Three days it is.

If there is

still no progress in the case

after three days,

you will not be spared.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Sit down and have some tea.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty,

my young disciple was being too arrogant.

This case is definitely more complicated than it appears.

Three days

are far too short.

If I

may speak boldly,

I suspect Yesha

is connected to what happened in Sea Cliff all those years ago...

Insolence!

Your Majesty, please calm your anger.

Zhong Yunchi, don't forget.

I spared your life

for a reason.

I dare not.

I admit my guilt.

As for the past,

don't let me

hear another word about it.

Yes.

We, the Elite Constabulary Unit,

will spare no effort

to capture Yesha

as quickly as possible.

As for the events of that year,

not a whisper will leak.

The prosperity of the Qi Kingdom was hard-won.

We must not let criminals

use this as a chance to stir up chaos

and shatter our peace.

Please rest assured, Your Majesty.

I stake my life on it.

If I do not solve the case, I'll answer with my death.

Once the culprit is caught,

execute him on the spot, without delay.

Yes, Your Majesty.

[Zuixian Restaurant]

This way, gentlemen.

-Chief. -Chief.

Go on.

-Chief. -Chief.

They're actually letting Xiao Beiming

do as he pleases?

And he dared to promise a three-day resolution?

Let's just wait and see

how this all blows up in their faces.

I know Xiao Beiming well.

That man is arrogant and prideful,

full of himself because of his talent.

But he would never do something foolish without absolute confidence.

For him to be so calm and sure,

he must already have a plan in mind.

Yun,

keep a close eye on the Elite Constabulary Unit.

If there's any unusual movement,

report it to me immediately.

Understood.

[Elite Constabulary Unit]

Master,

I just—

Do you know

that among the people, rumors are spreading

that Yesha is a vengeful spirit?

Every official

whose name was recorded at Lang Hua Pavilion

now lives in fear.

Yesha operates in a high-profile way

and is skilled at misdirection.

There's no way he'd be an ordinary person.

So how dare you

make such bold claims before His Majesty,

promising to solve the case in three days?

If you can't

find a clue in three days,

that's tantamount to deceiving His Majesty.

Master, please don't be angry.

The reason I dared make such a promise

is because I already have a plan

to solve the case.

What plan?

After the statue wept blood,

has anyone entered the place?

On the day of the incident,

His Majesty ordered the bloodstains on the statue

to be cleaned immediately.

Besides me,

no one else has entered since.

Thank you.

When did you recognize me?

The moment I saw you.

Then why did you fight me?

You looked like you were having so much fun.

I figured I'd spar with you a bit.

So just now,

you let me win on purpose?

Come on, between the two of us,

when have I ever beaten you in a match?

[Zhong Xueman from Elite Constabulary Unit]

Weren't you afraid you'd fall off the edge

and die?

I knew

you'd catch me.

Yes.

Oh sure,

you know everything.

There's nothing in this world you don't know.

Xueman,

did you sneak out behind Master's back

to investigate this case?

Why should you be allowed to investigate

but not me?

I'm acting on imperial orders.

And I'm also a constable in the Elite Constabulary Unit.

Well...

Are you going to argue here,

or would you rather explain yourself

in front of Master?

You weren't allowed to investigate

because we're worried about your safety.

I'm sending you back.

Don't use my dad to pressure me.

You promised me.

After we're married,

you'd let me investigate cases with you.

So what now?

Going back on your word?

I...

Xueman.

Stop messing around.

Come down. Let's go home.

Even you think I'm messing around.

I...

You know full well

how hard I've worked these past years

to become a constable.

Passing the assessment

wasn't easy for me.

I thought I could finally put my skills to use,

solve cases and help people.

But just because I'm a girl,

all of you are coddling me

and won't let me investigate the cases.

Some even gossip behind my back,

saying I only became a constable

because my father is the King of Constables.

Xueman,

we stop you from investigating

because we're afraid you'll get hurt.

As for what outsiders say—

Outsiders?

I don't care about their opinions.

This is something I need to do.

If even you think

I'm messing around,

and you won't take me along—

I...

I'll figure it out myself.

I want the world to know

that even a woman

can become

an outstanding constable.

You definitely

can.

I've never doubted that.

It's just that this case is too unusual.

Yesha is extremely dangerous.

You saw it yourself.

Come on.

Xueman.

Alright.

I was wrong.

I'll take you with me to investigate, alright?

Now wipe those tears.

What kind of constable cries

on the job?

Gotcha!

You promised me.

It's a deal.

No backing out.

Zhong Xueman.

You...

Where are the blood tears?

Someone wiped them away.

Now how are we supposed to investigate?

Every crime has a motive.

There's definitely more to this than it seems.

Do you believe in ghosts?

My dad said,

tales of spirits and monsters can't be trusted.

All the strange things in the world come from what's in people's hearts.

Exactly.

Every crime has a motive.

Do you know what "Yesha"

means?

There's a folk tale that goes:

When someone dies harboring deep resentment,

their soul cannot find rest or reincarnate.

Instead, they become a vengeful spirit, trapped among the living.

When that hatred runs as deep as the ocean,

and their wrath fills the very heavens,

they are called Yesha.

It's said that Yesha claims lives

without leaving a trace.

Beiming,

you're better at solving cases

than I am,

but when it comes to popular stories and legends,

I've read way more than you.

Besides,

Yesha killed several officials

but didn't take any valuables.

So it wasn't for money,

but for revenge.

Am I right?

Partially.

I think everything Yesha

has done so far

was to spread rumors.

If it were just for revenge,

there was no need

to tamper with the statue.

He wants everyone to believe

that Yesha has come,

and the fall of the Qi Kingdom is near.

This person's ambitions

go far beyond

a few lives.

But he caused such a big mess.

Isn't he afraid that if he fails,

he'll fall into our hands?

Yesha prides himself on his cleverness,

thinking he's planned every move.

But there's one thing

he didn't account for.

What's that?

Me.

So is it him that's arrogant,

or you?

Don't worry.

I'll outwit him.

Let's go.

Go where?

It's already dark.

Home, of course.

But we haven't found anything yet.

Even so, we need some rest.

Tomorrow morning,

we'll head to Mandarin Duck Restaurant.

For what?

Is there a case at Mandarin Duck Restaurant too?

We're going there

to get someone her favorite treat,

the very first batch of peach blossom pastries.

Xueman.

Forceps.

Catch it.

[Yesha]

Mr. Shen,

even though you've been reassigned,

[Shen Mansion]

your safety must come first.

Please report to His Majesty

and stay in the capital for now.

Ridiculous!

If Yesha really wants to kill me,

how long can you guard me for?

One year?

Or ten years?

Am I to live

my entire life

under your watch,

like one of

your prisoners?

Enough.

I am willing to devote my remaining years

to the good of the nation.

Tomorrow morning,

I must leave for my new post.

Mr. Shen.

Master.

Mr. Shen is right.

Keeping him here

won't change anything.

Beiming.

Master,

I have a plan

that can ensure Mr. Shen's safety.

Xiao Beiming ran

all over the city today,

but it was all just a blur.

What useful leads could he possibly find?

Even though His Majesty

assigned this case to the Elite Constabulary Unit,

we of the Secret Investigation Unit

must not stand idly by.

For years,

the Elite Constabulary Unit

has been outshining us.

If they crack this case,

our future

will be even bleaker.

You're right, Father.

This case is of great importance.

If we can solve it

before Xiao Beiming does,

His Majesty will surely reward us,

not punish us.

It's a golden opportunity.

We must seize it.

But since the case

has already been handed over to the Elite Constabulary Unit,

we can't

conduct an open investigation.

So how are we supposed to gather clues?

Why did you support

[Shen Mansion]

Mr. Shen's departure from the capital?

Once he's gone,

we won't be able to protect him.

Tomorrow is the third day.

If something happens,

we'll be in trouble.

Of course I know that.

Then you… So you need to find Master as soon as possible

and stay at the Shen Mansion with them

to ensure Mr. Shen's safety.

Are you hiding something

from me?

Of course not.

By the way, Xueman,

do you have any money on you?

Since you're not telling me anything,

I won't give you any money.

It's not that I'm hiding it.

The time just isn't right yet.

I have something important to do,

and I'll explain everything once I'm back, okay?

Beiming.

[Shen Mansion]

Fang Yin's in trouble at the gambling den.

Xueman, I really have to go.

I'll talk to you later.

Wait...

[Shen Mansion]

Money!

Don't move.

I will pay you back!

I swear in the name of

the Elite Constabulary Unit.

Let me go.

Your savior's here.

Beiming!

Beiming, help me!

Zhuge is going to chop off my finger!

Spill it.

What scheme are you playing this time?

Your junior bet against me

and lost 500 taels.

Now he says he doesn't have the money.

By the rules of the gambling den,

he's got to chop off five fingers

to pay his debt.

Beiming.

Don't believe him!

He set me up!

I told you not to move!

Five hundred taels?

Even if I sold all of the Elite Constabulary Unit's land,

I still couldn't pay that back.

Five fingers for 500 taels?

That's a fair trade.

Chop them off.

Xiao Beiming.

How could you say that?

My uncle is the deputy chief of the Elite Constabulary Unit.

If you stand by and do nothing,

he won't let you off!

What kind of nonsense is that?

You walked right into

a trap yourself.

How could your uncle

blame me for that?

Besides,

that's 500 taels.

Five fingers?

That's a bargain.

If I were Mr. Zhuge,

I'd take all ten.

Beiming,

he is our colleague.

Please help him out.

Senior.

This bastard

always uses his uncle's position

to cause us

trouble.

If he loses his hand,

he can't be a constable anymore.

That would save us a lot of headaches

when solving cases.

Wouldn't that be wonderful?

Xiao Beiming,

you're heartless!

Gag him and chop his fingers off.

Don't...

Don't...

I didn't do anything!

Coward.

Mr. Zhuge,

what does that mean?

Is this a great act of mercy?

You're just using me to eliminate your rival.

I won't fall for that.

Come on,

your grudge

is with him.

What does that have to do with me?

Alright, let's drop the act.

You knew I was using him

to lure you out.

Since I'm clearly the target,

let's not beat around the bush.

Let's settle this today

once and for all.

And don't you dare

touch my fellow disciples again.

As long as you cooperate.

Deal.

If you ever step into the gambling den again,

I'll break your legs.

G-Got it.

I won't do it again.

Send him back.

Let's go.

You...

[Gambling]

Alright,

now it's just the two of us.

Let's make a bet.

How?

It's simple.

Highest roll wins.

If you lose,

you give me all the clues you have

on the Yesha case.

So straightforward?

Schemes are boring

against someone like you.

Let's keep it direct.

But what if you lose?

Are these enough?

What do you think?

Just a little wager.

If I dared to invite you into my game,

then I'm ready to accept your stakes too.

I'm just worried you can't handle losing.

You've known me for years.

Have you ever seen me lose?

Then what's your stake?

You know

I'm getting married in a few days.

If you lose,

you'll lead the bridal horse

for Xueman and me

on our wedding day.

Fine.

[Shen Mansion]

[Noble in Conduct]

Xueman.

You lost.

[Gambling]

Hurry, open it!

Open it!

Open it!

Open it!

Alright,

find a quiet place

and tell me everything you know

about the case.

Zhuge Kongyun,

do you know why you've never

been able to beat me all these years?

Because you're too impatient.

This...

He shattered the dice.

You cheated!

We never set rules, so how can there be cheating?

You...

You're right.

I admit defeat.

Winning against you was too easy.

Tell you what,

I'm in a good mood today,

so I'll give you one clue—free of charge.

No tricks.

What is it?

Mr. Shen is leaving the capital tomorrow.

Thank you, Mr. Zhuge.

Be sure to show up early

on my wedding day to feed the horse.

My horse is pretty stupid.

Tripping over itself is a regular thing.

[Hongyuan Casino]

There's still some left.

Everyone will get a share.

Come on, one by one.

Be careful.

-Thank you for your kindness. -Thank you.

Here.

You're so kind.

Everyone will get a share.

Here.

Thank you, Young Master.

Thank you, sir.

Feeling proud of yourself?

X-Xueman?

Why are you here?

Everyone's on high alert at Shen Mansion.

They don't even dare blink,

worried something might go wrong.

Yet you dare sneak off to fool around here?

Xueman, don't be mad.

It wasn't my idea.

He dragged me here.

Zhuge Peacock, what do you think you're doing?

You know

we're in the middle of an important case,

yet you bring Beiming

to gamble?

Even if the Secret Investigation Unit

doesn't care about the bigger picture,

and you're rotten enough to pull tricks,

at least pick your timing!

Use your brain!

Believe it or not,

I'll teach you a lesson on your dad's behalf.

Exactly!

At a time like this,

you still drag me to gamble?

Confucius was right—

"Only women and petty men are hard to deal with."

Fine.

I won't waste

my time on you two.

Goodbye.

-Hey, you! -Calm down, Xueman.

[Hongyuan Casino]

The next time I see him,

I'll curse him until his ears fall off,

alright?

Why haven't you left yet?

I took a wrong turn. Is that a crime?

Xiao Beiming,

you should know

the road out of the capital

is the perfect opportunity for Yesha

to strike Mr. Shen.

The Elite Constabulary Unit alone

probably isn't enough to guarantee a win.

This is a gamble.

With Mr. Shen's life at stake.

Yours and

your master's might be next.

No.

It's Yesha's life on the line.

Xiao Beiming,

no one can win forever.

If you lose this time,

you'll be doomed.

Then let's wait and see.

Maybe it'll be even easier

than beating you.

See you.

[Hongyuan Casino]

Since we were kids,

Zhuge Peacock

has never had a nice thing to say.

Enough about him.

Xueman, why were you looking for me?

Weren't you planning to borrow money from me?

Mr. Zhuge has already

been kind enough to help me out.

Is he that kind-hearted?

He gave this as a wedding gift, and it's not a small sum.

Oh right, you head back to the Shen Mansion first.

I still have some matters to take care of.

But...

Don't worry.

[Hongyuan Casino]

[Shen Mansion]

What a cunning getaway.

Which carriage should we follow?

That one.

That one?

Why?

The attendant on that carriage

is Zhong Xueman in disguise.

Xiao Beiming would never

leave Zhong Xueman to face danger alone.

He must be in that carriage.

[Prosperous People, Strong Nation]

Stay alert!

Hold this for me.

Excuse me, sir,

may I ask

what's going on up ahead?

You don't know?

Mr. Qian is hosting

a birthday banquet just up the street.

Anyone who visits

and says a few auspicious words

gets a red envelope.

No time to talk.

If I'm late, I'll miss out!

Such a lively scene.

Li Long,

go get some men from the Secret Investigation Unit.

What's wrong, Young Master?

That big crowd earlier wasn't normal.

It's very likely Yesha has already

seen through

the decoy of the four carriages.

If they're going to strike,

going out of the city is the best time to act.

Why are we helping

the Elite Constabulary Unit?

We are helping ourselves.

If Xiao Beiming tries to make a getaway,

we'll wait to

ambush him from behind.

Brilliant plan, Young Master.

Beiming,

we're about to leave the city.

Be careful.

The real danger starts once we're outside.

Got it.

Mr. Shen.

Mr. Shen!

Mr. Shen!

Mr. Shen!

What happened?

Just now, amid the confusion,

someone shot a steel needle

through the window,

piercing Mr. Shen's vital point.

He died instantly, without a sound.

Yesha is a true master of hidden weapons.

Xiao Beiming,

you lost the bet this time.
