All language subtitles for A Place Called Silence 2024-ENGCP

Roaming the world far and wide

You're always by my side

Oh, the great sea, my home

JING HWA IS KIND AND CELEBRATE GOOD DEEDS.

Oh, the great sea, my home

Let's take a moment of silence

for those who perished in the tsunami

one year ago.

In the face of a devastating catastrophe,

we were reminded of the value of life.

We grew together,

and we made progress together.

It's a huge place,
but only half is usable now.

See there?

It leaks all the time.
Rain keeps leaking in.

You need to find a way to fix that.

I think you should
just renovate the whole place.

Renovate?

That would cost a fortune, genius.

- I'm sorry.
- Headmaster.

I didn't know you were here.

- Are you alright?
- I'm fine.

Are you alright?

Use it.

- Here.
- No, please, I can do this.

Let me wipe your clothes.

And, sir…

- Sir.
- I was thinking…

The leak here is even worse.

Excuse me.

Yeah.

What's wrong with this hellish weather?

It's always raining, always.

Just patch it up.

The problem is that it's always raining.

The weight would be a problem.

What if the roof collapses?

At least wait until
the fundraising is over,

then we'll have money for a renovation.

The event is around the corner.

Now, with this pool here,
it's simply unacceptable.

Just find a way to fix it for now.

Patch it up.

Patch it.

Zaifu.

When did you cut your hair?

You are in a good shape lately.

Excuse me. Have you seen Tong?

Excuse me. Have you seen Tong?

Ms. Zhang.

I'm sorry. Have you seen Tong?

Tong.

She went with some classmates
to find the paper boats.

Thank you.

Now, please welcome

our creative director, Gao Jingshu.

- Chill, chill.
- And hair stylist,

Zhong Xiaoqing.

Xiaoqing.

Costume designer, Huang Wenling.

And, finally, the star of the show,

our model,

Chen Yutong.

Chen Yutong.

Looking for fun?

Or do you girls want to join us?

What?

Go away.

Looks better without the bangs.

- You're so creative.
- It does, right?

It looks really good.

You're gorgeous.

Tell me.

Where is the phone?

I can't find it anywhere.

Where is my phone?

Where the hell is it?

Here?

Or here?

Look at her.

Say something. Mute bitch.

Give me the gel.

Gross.

Your mom seduced my dad.

Now, who are you trying to seduce?

You know what?

Let's put some lipstick on you.

Gorgeous.

So beautiful.

Stunning.

Speak.

Say something.

Shut up for the rest of your life.

Let's go.

Tong.

Let's go to the abandoned castle later.

- Tong.
- I'll do a reading for you.

Find out where your phone is.

Tong.

Tong.

It's pouring.

How did you kick your leg so high?

What the hell is this weather?

Gosh.

- It's raining everywhere.
- Everything is wet.

Angie's dad caught her
and took her home again.

Otherwise, the four of us playing here

would have been so much fun.

It's true. The call
came through last time.

You know what?

The mute's mom used to be an accountant.

Now, she's cleaning the gym.

Yeah, for her precious daughter.

I can't stand that. It's gross.

How come the phone
is switched on after so long?

Jingshu.

Hello. Doma City Police Service.

Hello. Doma City Police Service.

What's your emergency?

The second I smelt the kumquat tea,

I knew Ms. Li was here.

My husband grew them.

I'll smuggle you some next time.

Thanks.

Their parents have already
reported a missing person.

Could you please stop fooling around?

It really has nothing
to do with me this time.

Pain in the ass.

What can I do for you?

Headmaster.

I think it'd be better for Tong
to go back to the special-needs class.

Is she having trouble
fitting into a regular class?

She's been mute since birth.

Putting her in a regular class now

would be too much for her to handle.

Also,

she was getting along pretty well

with her classmates
in the special-needs class.

Look, Ms. Li.

With your looks,

working here as a cleaner

to support your child

is just sad to watch.

It must be tough.

I'm quite fond of Tong.

That's why Ms. Zhang transferred her
to a regular class.

So that she can learn

to live among normal people sooner.

If I transfer her back now,

people will think something's going on…

between you and I.

That I abused my power.

I won't go into details about

how Angie treats Tong.

If you can't solve the problem,

can we at least keep her away?

This is good for a cough.

Let's help one another.

Sometimes, not talking…

is better than talking nonsense.

I'll consult with Ms. Zhang immediately.

Thank you, sir.

I won't bother you anymore.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Kids nowadays

have no fear going anywhere.

Brother Wen.

There's a rumor going around in school.

It's about a murderer lurking around here.

Allegedly, after he kills someone,
he uses the corpse oil

to make candles.

Missing for two days is totally normal.

I went missing all the time
when I was their age.

Brother Wen, I was telling the truth.

Maybe the murderer is somewhere nearby.

Also, the most important thing is...

Brother Dai.

Sir, when did you come?

Been a while.

I got all antsy waiting for you guys.

Did you find anything?

We found…

- We just got here.
- Yeah.

Did you happen to find…

a bathroom around here?

Bathroom.

It's a bathroom all around.

It's raining outside.

I need to take a dump.

That way.

- It's okay, sir. Here's some toilet paper.
- Okay.

No need. It's daytime.

I just don't get it.

Why the hell did they make him our boss?

You should get promoted.

Enough small talk.

Let's go back.

We're still looking?

No, it's gone.

A beer bottle.

A clue.

What's that?

Wait for me.

Tong, stay calm.

We just want to talk.

Last Friday,

did you see these classmates of yours
who went missing?

Gao Jingshu.

Huang Wenling.

Gross.

Zhong Xiaoqing.

Someone saw you with them after school.

Does anything come to mind?

If you remember something,

just write it down.

Oh, right.

Is this yours?

Tong.

- Where did you go after that?
- Tong.

Hi. You are…?

I'm Chen Yutong's mother.

You are the cleaner at the school,

Ms. Li Han.

Please have a seat.

The thing is,

someone said

before the three girls went missing,

they were with your daughter.

Right.

Last Friday,

the school organized
a paper boat releasing event.

Tong didn't feel well that day,

so I took her home.

I see.

Wait.

Did you tell her which day?

Why did you say Friday?

You seemed so sure.

Everyone knows.

After the prayer gathering,

- some students went missing.
- Wait a second.

We were asking her.

She can't talk.

I didn't ask her to.

There's pen and paper. She can write.

Here. Write down what you remember.

Go on.

How about this?

Let me take her home first.

I'll ask her.

If she remembers anything,

- I'll let you know.
- What?

So, we're supposed
to work around your schedule?

Madam.

- The kid is scared.
- What do you mean?

That we scared her?

Who scared her?

What kind of school is this?

How can kids learn
when there is no air-conditioning?

So, she…

Maybe they can go home first

and write something down
if anything comes up.

If you agree, just go with it.
What are you asking me for?

Here.

Why didn't you go that day?

I got a fever after falling
into the water.

Last Friday, we were going to release some
paper boats for blessing after school.

When I was young, Mom told me

My home is the great sea

By the sea, I was born

And in the sea, I grew up

Oh, the great sea

Angie.

Angie.

Angie.

Give me your hand.

- Come on.
- Everyone back off.

- Angie. Give me your hand.
- Sir.

- Give me your hand.
- Come on.

Slowly.

They told me they were going
to this secret base,

an abandoned castle near the school.

After that, I couldn't reach them.

I had a fever the other day.

I went to the hospital.

Do you have proof?

Go look if you don't believe me.

Alright, you can go now.

Waste of time.

Next, please.

Let's welcome Tong back
to the special-needs class.

A round of applause.

Tong, why don't you draw with us?

Let me go check.

It's okay. No need to look this way.

YOUNG GIRL MISSING

Excuse me. Zhong Xiaoqing.

Excuse me. Zhong Xiaoqing.

Can you help me find Zhong Xiaoqing?

- Don't stand here, will you?
- I'm her mother.

- Don't distribute the flyers here.
- She is missing for a few days...

- This is a driveway, you know?
- What?

Isn't the school responsible
for the safety of the students?

I've said it a thousand times
and you never listen.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Ms. Li.

Have you seen Xiaoqing?

Nope.

Ms. Li.

If you see her near the school

or at a classmate's home,

would you please let me know?

If I see her,

I'll inform you ASAP.

Let's go.

Tong. Tong.

Have you seen Xiaoqing?

Zhong Xiaoqing.

Don't lie to me, okay?

If we see her,

we'll let you know immediately.

Let's go.

Ms. Li.

Welcome.

It's raining like crazy today.

Honey.

I know.

Temperature is dropping in Guangzhou.

Be sure to bundle up. Don't catch a cold.

That Pu'er tea you brought me is superb.

Bring me more next time.

Did you hear that?

Don't mail too much. I can't drink it all.

Rice.

Brother Hui,
give me one and a half kilo of rice.

One and a half kilo.

What were you saying?

Tong. Smart girl.

- I see.
- No wonder your dad spoils you so.

I'll write it down then.

What were you saying? Friday.

I know.

You're soaking wet.

Let me dry you off.

Brother Hui, here.

Sorry for the trouble.

Here. Daddy has something to tell you.

He said next time,

- One and a half kilo.
- He'll take us to Guangzhou.

That'll be 25.

He may be a stepdad,

but he's nice to both you and Tong.

Having a man take care of you

and one who loves your daughter…

Fifty in total.

God.

These are the kumquats my husband grew.

Sister.

I offered these at the shrine yesterday.

Hand them out to everyone.

Let me.

You can handle the fresh ones later.

What awful weather.

Let's go.

Move the table then.

You go up first.

Be careful.

It costs a lot to fix the wall.

I'm sorry.

My hand slipped.

For God's sake.

I've donated all my rental income
to charity.

Every penny

must be spent where it matters.

Do you understand?

Tong is home.

Here, look at this.

This is the Firefly Gathering
at the charity.

Come play during the holidays.

It's super fun.

Mrs. Xu.

This event is for victims
of the tsunami, right?

That's right.

We'll stay out of it then.

Excuse me.

Watch out.

Mrs. Xu.

- Is someone new moving in?
- Yeah, yeah.

- Just put it there.
- That's him.

Mr. Lin.

What are you doing here?

Mrs. Xu did me a favor.

The rent is lower here.

You know each other？

Yeah, we met at the school.

Brother Lin is my colleague.

Watch out.

Watch out.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Ms. Li, are those kumquats?

The kumquats Ms. Li's husband grows

taste really good.

Mrs. Xu. We just offered them
at the shrine.

- Take some.
- Hang the whole bag on my door.

What are you looking at?

Come in already.

EGG ROLLS

Tong.

Tong.

Stay home.

I'll go pick some kumquats.

Wait for me.

WHERE ARE YOU GUYS?
MY DAD HAS CALLED THE POLICE

SEE YOU LATER AT THE OLD PLACE

STOP MESSING AROUND

PERSONAL INFORMATION

Brother Dai.

The cleaner.

Congrats, Mr. Fang.

Congratulations, Mr. Fang.

Please remember us, sir.

Bye, Mr. Fang.

Let's go.

Master.

- Safe trip.
- Go back to work.

Mr. Fang.

You're too kind, Ms. Li.

You won't have these after you retire.

Zaifu.

Take home some of the things they gave me.

I'm all alone. I'd hate to waste them.

Congratulations.

Sir.

FANG

I got you a new freezer
for the recreation room.

And I moved the broken one.

It hasn't been used for a long time.

That freezer

has been repaired many times.

And it's still broken.

Broken means broken.

You can't fix it.

Have you seen Angie?

Angie. Have you seen her?

Actually, I have not seen her all day.

I'll go look.

Entering the hall now are the students

who lost their dorm in the tsunami.

They've been in Jing Hwa Girls' School
for a year now,

and they've excelled

in both academic and athletic activities.

About to take the stage are the students

from the special-needs class,
led by their teachers.

These are the children from the stars,

who are unique in their own ways.

Tong, what are you doing here?

Mr. Lin.

Is it almost fixed?

It's the final rehearsal today.

The solar terms drum band

has been involved in many competitions…

The headmaster needs to know.

This is the best we can do for now.
You need a major repair later.

JING HWA IS KIND AND CELEBRATES GOOD DEEDS

CALLING: DAUGHTER

Let's thank the solar terms drum band

for their magnificent performance.

Now, it's time for the headmaster
and the leaders of the school

to come on stage for the reveal.

Students, let's count down together.

Three.

Two.

One.

DAD

It's a corpse.

Watch out.

The police determined that

the missing student had been found.

Carry on with the investigation.

How powerful is the headmaster's daughter!

Angie bullies that mute girl all the time.

Ms. Li.

Tong.

Tong.

Has anyone suspicious

been hanging around the school lately?

Some

teachers and students

have reported

someone sneaking around
in front of the school.

They said he was taking photos.

You got some on me just now.

It's all water.

What are you taking photos of?

There's a social worker
at the Build Together Charity.

His name is Lin Zaifu.

During the tsunami last year,

his home was wrecked.

Mr. Fang saved him.

And it was through
Mr. Fang's recommendation

that he got a job as a handyman

at the school to earn some extra cash.

But one day, his daughter had an accident

and passed away.

I asked Zaifu to come back to work

out of pity.

Ever since then,

whenever he saw

a young girl his daughter's age,

he'd have a strange look on his face.

It's weird,
now that I come to think of it.

Lin Zaifu was taking photos of students?

I think you should investigate him.

JANUARY 9TH, 2006

Is that Lin Zaifu?

You should know each other.

Tong.

Tong.

Mrs. Xu.

Tong.

Tong.

Tong.

I've rung the doorbell a hundred times,
but you didn't open.

I have a key.

So, I just let myself in.

The house is in poor condition.

I was scared something
might have happened.

Are you okay?

Oh, right.

I have something
for the charity foundation.

I saw your truck parked outside.

Could you deliver them for me?

How about tomorrow?

Tomorrow?

Alright then. Okay.

Are you really so busy today?

You even packed them for me. Thanks.

Brother Lin.

Could you give me a ride downtown

this afternoon?

- There is an alumni reunion.
- Mrs. Xu.

- I have things to do later.
- Thanks. You're so kind.

Ms. Li.

The police are looking for you.

Ms. Li.

Your hand.

How did it get hurt?

A nail.

Bear with me.

It's okay.

Someone was murdered at the school today.

Yes.

Why did you leave earlier

during the roll call?

Officer.

My daughter is missing.

Can you help me find her?

JANUARY 9TH, 2006

He is Lin Zaifu.

- It must be heavy. Let me help you.
- It's okay.

Brother Lin.

But now, it's not certain

that your daughter has gone missing.

How about

I go take a look in your home?

Hey!

Don't throw it away yet.

A black bag.

Black bag.

Black bag.

What's in it?

Don't go.

Don't move.

Don't move.

Are you okay?

Send an ambulance.

He's injured.

Fuck.

Wu Wang snapped the shots.

I found lots of videos

- on Wu Wang's camera
- Li Han.

- That he snatched of others.
- Ma'am, can you write faster?

- We can detain him first.
- Age.

- He is a pervert.
- Forty-one.

A couple of nights ago, I caught him

up to no good on the roof
of the building across the street.

He was lurking around there just now, too.

I thought it was Lin Zaifu.

That's why I went after him.

- Officer, my daughter is in danger.
- Sure, just a sec.

- Could you please help me?
- Hang on.

- Don't waste your time here.
- Come here.

Let me ask you a question.

What were you doing

hanging around her home?

Tuesday.

Black.

Put on this coat.

What are you saying?

You'll never change!

Laugh? Laugh?

Laugh?

Laugh!

Talk.

Why did you do it? Tell me.

What are you doing here?
What are you doing?

What the hell?

Uncle, that's enough.

You're going to kill him.

He carried a camera around taking photos.

How long have you been doing this,
and how much did you get?

How much stuff do you have on there?

Pervert. Go see a doctor.

How did you educate your child?

He took photos of little girls.
Now, he's even taking photos of me.

Here's all the evidence.

- I'm calling the police now.
- Please don't.

We're all family. This is unnecessary.

But… We'll deal with it
when you call the police.

Don't make things worse.

- Hey, little girl.
- What?

Take the money to buy some snacks.

I don't want your money.

Little girl, don't cry.

I promise you I will move tomorrow.

Tomorrow, I'll be gone.

I need you to leave now,

not tomorrow.

Forget it.

Forget it.

It's all my fault.

Brother Dai, you hit a little too hard.

This is his son.

What?

The one that ran away from home.

Sir, he took some photos of Chen Yutong.

Look.

Is this your building?

- That's all.
- That's all.

- What about this one?
- This… No.

It's not from today.

Just one take.

Do you have more footage of my daughter?

Did you see her do anything?

What else did you shoot?

What else?

Did you see her go anywhere?

Talk.

Talk.

Why didn't you call the police
when you saw her like that?

Why didn't you save my daughter?

Why didn't you save her?

Why didn't you?

I'm trying to protect you.

What do you mean?

What the hell is that supposed to mean?

We only saw parts of it.

They have watched about 56

child abuse videos.

Child abuse is a serious crime.

Why didn't you listen to me?

How many times do I have to tell you?

Don't make contact with other people.

Why didn't you listen?

How many times do I have to tell you?

Why won't you listen to me?

God forbid if you ever do it again.

Will you?

It's for your own good.

I'm protecting you. Do you understand?

I was teaching my daughter a lesson.

Brother Dai, now...

Officer, this has nothing
to do with the case.

- But it's a different case, now.
- My daughter is in danger.

Child abuse is a serious crime.

Stay here.

I'll help you find your daughter.

Then we'll decide

if it was education or abuse.

Knock on this door.

- Next. Quickly.
- Come on.

Did you see a little girl? This tall?

- Come in, please,
- Thank you.

Ms. Li.

Mr. Yang.

They brought you in for questioning too?

Who could have thought such a thing
would happen at the school?

Mr. Yang.

What's this key for?

I saw Mr. Fang with one, too.

You mean this?

It's the key to the recreation room
at the charity foundation.

I haven't been back for so long.

We couldn't afford to renovate,

so it's been out of use.

Mr. Yang, could you come here for a sec?

Hello. This is
the Build Together Doma City Charity.

Hello. Hi.

Can I have the old address
of your recreation room?

AWAKEN

Mr. Fang's book

has saved many lives.

Let me tell you something.

I have a nephew.

At first,

he was a real rascal.

And now, after Mr. Fang's teaching,

he's a completely different person.

Mr. Fang is truly a selfless
and fearless man.

He spent his whole life seeking the truth.

Is that right, Brother Lin?

People can be as tough as rocks,

but the truth is like a hammer

that can break even the hardest stone.

Absolutely.

That's what Mr. Fang said.

Police. Open the door.

HONEY

Hello.

Tong. Is that you?

Hello, Wen?

I want to ask you something.
Where is Li Han now?

She drove away in Mr. Yang's car.

Surveillance footage picked her up
somewhere near the railway.

Run a check on someone first.

Li Han's husband.

BUILD TOGETHER CHARITY

So many cops here.

The charity foundation is at the back.

I forgot something.

- Hello.
- Mrs. Xu.

This is Brother Hui.

- Hello.
- Mrs. Xu.

The signal is bad here.

Speak louder. Let me tune it.

- Hello, Mrs. Xu.
- What were you saying?

I said, Lin Zaifu
is a wanted criminal now.

The police suspect he's involved
in a case of missing school girls.

Did you hear that? Be careful.

I'm hanging up.
I will be there in a minute.

That is nonsense.

A load of crap.

He is crazy.

You know,

it's so quiet in the car.

Let me put on some music.

A major development
in the Jing Hwa Girls School murder.

The police suspect

a full-time social worker
at the Build Together Charity,

a man named Lin Zaifu.

They are currently searching
for the suspect.

We hereby call out to all citizens

to report any sightings of the suspect.

Stupid news.

Who said that? Ridiculous.

Do you believe the hammer of truth

can break the rock?

Move.

Xiao Tong.

Little boat.

For Mr. Fang.

It's flying in the sky. See?

Fly away

Then go to sleep

Daddy. Today is my birthday.

Happy birthday, Huijun!

We'll cut the cake when we get home.

Then daddy will take you somewhere.

Boating.

Boating.

- Daddy took me boating.
- Sure.

Sure.

Why is the wind so loud on your side?
I thought you were in the classroom.

A pidgeon. It got hurt.

Tong and I took care of it.

Happy birthday to you

Huijun, we have a present for you.

A crown.

Do you like it?

Happy birthday.

It's beautiful. Don't move.

Don't move.

Don't move.

Huijun, be happy.

Come on. Yay. Happy.

Don't move.

You'll have a bad haircut.

Don't move.

- So pretty.
- Shake it.

Birthday exclusive kelp soup.

We made it especially for you.

Don't move. Open your mouth.

- Open your mouth. Come on.
- Open your mouth.

- Don't move.
- Open your mouth.

Drink more.

Open your mouth.

- That's disgusting.
- Don't pour it on me.

More.

One bottle is hardly enough.

Open your mouth.

Swallow.

Are you feeling sick?

Is it morning sickness?

Morning sickness.

Have your dad heard about that?

You want to vomit? Let it all out.

Look here. Smile. Smile.

What? Are you still sick?

What is this?

A little pigeon.

- Give it to me.
- It's an injured pigeon.

A pigeon. It's injured.

- Give it to me.
- Give it back to me.

Give it back.

- You should give it another kick.
- Stop. Stop.

- Don't touch me.
- This way.

Are you an idiot?

Pigeon.

Why don't we let her stand up there?

Birthday girl. She should take the throne.

Let me see it. Just checking.

- Don't move.
- Give it to me.

- Your pigeon is about to drop.
- Your pigeon, Huijun.

Get up there.

Get up and be happy.

Come on.

The mute is here.

- Look. Who is there?
- You're so protective of her.

Tong.

We're celebrating your birthday.

Come on. The show must go on.

Why are you calling her?

- We prepared a throne for you.
- Get up!

- Get up there.
- Get up there.

Dad…

Why do you have scissors?

Go.

- Get up there.
- Where did the phone come from?

Be happy. It's your birthday.

Why did you call the police?

What were you thinking? Go.

Get up there. Do it.

The hen ran away with her chicken.

No one is coming for you.

Come back. There's nothing we can do.

Did you hear that? We can't do anything.

Three.

The pigeon is falling.
Let's get up there quickly.

It's falling.

Get up there.

We can't do anything.

Two.

One.

If you don't get up there,

the pigeon will fall.

Wait for me here.

- Get up there.
- Look.

The pigeon is falling.

Get up there.

- Pigeon.
- Do it.

Three.

Two.

No matter when or where,

it's all for everyone.

Actions of good and evil

cause the consciousness.

Actions of good and evil

cause the consciousness.

Where good and evil end…

- My phone.
- Let's go. Leave it.

- Where's my phone?
- Just leave it.

FATHER

Yay.

Come on. Yay. Be happy.

Smile.

What? Are you still feeling sick?

Why did you spit it out?

Don't move.

Get up there.

DAD, HUIJUN

It's flying.

It's flying.

Daddy.

It's flying.

Write down your wishes there,

and they will come true.

Boating.

Daddy, take me boating.

Here,

we exist.

No matter when

or where,

it's all for everyone.

Actions of good and evil
cause the consciousness.

Where good and evil end, new life begins.

AWAKEN

They are all dead.

They are simply reaping

what they sow.

Do you remember those words

Hui… Huijun.

- Let's leave.
- Come on.

- Mr. Fang.
- Zaifu, Zaifu.

Have you seen Huijun?

- She didn't answer her phone.
- Zaifu.

Listen to me. Listen.
Let's get out of here first.

Let's… First.

Sorry, Daddy.

Daddy.

Daddy's here.

Huijun.

Pigeon.

I…

Don't cry.

Daddy… Daddy's not crying.

Not crying.

Not crying.

Daddy will take you home.

Home.

Hui… Huijun.

Daddy will take you and the pigeon home.

Then we'll go boating.

Where's the ambulance?

Can you help us, please?

Please, we need help.

Huijun.

You can't sleep, Huijun.

Huijun.

I just want you by my side

Excuse me. Do you know how my girl died?

- Please help me.
- Xiaoqing.

- Contact me if you have anything.
- Xiaoqing.

Excuse me.
Contact me if you have anything.

Thank you.

Your bangs… How many times

- have I told you?
- Excuse me.

- What's going on?
- Contact me if you have anything.

Thank you.

Excuse me.
Contact me if you have anything.

Excuse me.

Contact me if you have anything.

- Sorry.
- Hello!

- I've told you! Do not stay here.
- Sorry.

Help me out.

- No can do.
- Help me out.

No, get out.

- Zaifu, let's move to the side.
- No can do.

Excuse me.

Contact me if you have anything.

- Thank you.
- Excuse me.

I'm sorry.

- I don't have an extra hand.
- Contact me if you have anything.

Hi. Hello. Excuse me.

If you see or think of anything,
please contact us, okay?

Thank you.

Zaifu.

Give me more.

Headmaster.

Headmaster.

What's wrong, Zaifu?

The… surveillance footage.

Did they find anything?

The camera up there
has been broken forever.

- Zaifu.
- How can it be broken?

- Mr. Fang.
- Headmaster, sorry. Sorry.

Zaifu, how many times have I told you?

You can't change what's been and gone.

Just go home already.

If you need someone to talk to,
come to me anytime.

But, Mr. Fang,
how can the camera be broken?

- Please help me, Mr. Fang.
- Zaifu.

Zaifu.

Mr. Fang is doing this for you.

- Mr. Fang.
- Take the umbrella.

Don't get wet in the rain.

But how can the camera be broken?

Angie.

Yang. Take care of Zaifu for me.

Headmaster.

Headmaster.

Sir, please listen to me.
Don't walk away, sir.

Are you alright?

Are you alright?

Zaifu.

I want to ask the sheriff.

Please let him take a look for me.

Our colleagues have helped you
the best they could.

Sheriff.

The sheriff is in a meeting.

Sheriff. Check this for me, please.
Sheriff.

Lin Zaifu.

- The camera is indeed broken.
- Sheriff.

Mr. Fang confirmed it.

Huijun committed suicide.

Your daughter took her own life.

You need to face the facts.

Don't come back here.

Why did you tell me Huijun killed herself?

We trusted you.

Zaifu.

I'm only human.

Huijun is dead,

but those girls could still be saved.

They were evil.

They were monsters. They deserved to die.

My daughter is not coming back.

Why didn't you save her?

She's not coming back. Do you know that?
Not coming back.

We trusted you.

Tell me.

- Where is my daughter?
- Zaifu.

- Mr. Fang. Mr. Fang.
- Where is my daughter?

Where did you hide her?

Your daughter is not coming back.

We weren't the ones
that killed your daughter.

I buried your daughter in the flowerbed.

How? How does it feel to lose a child?

Tell me.

Tell me.

Give my daughter back to me.

Ms. Li.

Ms. Li. Ms. Li.

Get up, please.

Come on.

One, two, three. Get up.

That bastard.

Is this… Did you drop this?

That monster Lin Zaifu

murdered three school girls.

He buried Tong

in a flowerbed on the rooftop.

Was Tong really in the flowerbed?

That means this whole building is haunted.

I can't sublet it now.

No.

I'm calling the police.

Where's my phone?

My phone.

My new bag.

Hello. Doma Police Service.

Please…

get me an ambulance.

Are you insane?

Let me out of the car. Stop for a sec.

Stop.

Stop it.

Stop the car.

Okay.

I'll drive.

The entire building knew

you beat your daughter every day.

You're sick.

You need to see a doctor.

Did you hear what I said?
I want to get out of the car.

Let me out.

Let me out. Let me out.

Where's Tong?

Where's Tong?

I'm asking you. Where is Tong?

Your flowerbed. Underneath.

What exactly did Tong tell you?

We are all sinners.

Give me my daughter back.

Give me my daughter back.

Now, you are just like me.

I'm nothing like you.

I'm just a mother.

Where did you hide Tong?

Where did you hide her?

Where?

Your daughter…

is now free.

Stop the car.

Sir, you were awesome.

You stopped him with one shot.

You missed. He's alive.

- There's another one.
- Call an ambulance.

- Back off.
- Call an ambulance.

Where's the driver?

FIVE YEARS AGO

Mrs. Xu.

You just got back?

The company party ran late.

I forgot my keys. Lend me your backup key.

I'll get it for you.

Here.

- Thanks.
- No problem.

I thought you weren't coming home
until tomorrow.

Why are you dressed like this
while I'm gone?

Where were you?

- Hanging with people from work.
- Where did you go?

Did it hurt?

Don't hit me.

I'll go make you some tea.

Who are you calling?

Your mom?

You want the whole world to know?

Kill me.

See who will support you.

I support your mom, too.

You want money?

It's all about money.

You really want people to know?

There's a crowd down there.

I want them to know.

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm not going.

Let me in.

Let me in.

Here's the key.

Open the door.

I'm sorry.

I was wrong.

Lin Zaifu.

Stop.

Lin Zaifu.

Lin Zaifu. Lin Zaifu.

What do you have to say
to the victim's family?

Get out!

Lin Zaifu.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Xiaoqing is still alive, is she?

Awaken. Mr. Fang was right.

Mr. Fang was right.

Why are you doing this?

Look what you did.

Go to hell.

Awaken.

Maybe someone delivered the messages
to him by paper crane.

Mr. Lin.

We found these strange notes
in your apartment.

Care to explain?

What do they mean?
"The police went to school."

"January 9th."

Final rehearsal.

"So much happened today."

"Help me."

Who wrote that?

Was it Chen Yutong?

Why did she write, "Help me?"

Can you do me a favor?

What did you do to Chen Yutong?

Talk.

Look. Someone have it on camera
that you carried her here.

Why didn't you save her that day?

Do you know how much Huijun trusted you?

Well, didn't she?

Where is Chen Yutong now?

She's on the roof.

Are you kidding me?

We searched the roof.

There was nothing.

How about the flowerbed?

We found something. Dig here.

Hurry.

SOMEONE IS SECRETLY FILMING

Sir.

This.

The origami cranes we found
at the other crime scene.

After unfolding them, we got a picture.

Kumquats. People. Fan.

Your daughter was missing.

Why did you look for her on your own?

What about your husband?

Where is he?

Where is her husband?
Working in Guangzhou.

December 4th, 2005.

Kumquat tea to be shipped from Guangzhou.

December 6th, 2005.

Weather forecast said
it's going to be sunny all day.

Need to wash Chen Mingzhang's clothes.

His shoes, too.
Then dry them on the balcony.

January 5th, 2006.

They have really stepped
over the line this time.

Bullying Tong like that.

I had to cut her hair.

January 7th, 2006.

Ordering some Pu'er tea.

To be shipped from Guangzhou.

Put it under Chen Mingzhang's name.

DIALED NUMBERS: HONEY

HONEY

Tong.

Is that you?

If it really is you,
make a sound so Mommy will know.

Hello?

HONEY

HONEY

Hello, honey.

The temperature is dropping in Guangzhou.

These are Chen Mingzhang's
border-crossing records.

The last time was five years ago.

So, where is this man now?

The kumquats Ms. Li's husband grew
taste really good.

God, these are the kumquats
my husband grew.

The second I smelt the kumquat tea,

I knew Ms. Li was here.

My husband grew them.

This is good for a cough.

Sir, it's an adult skeleton.

This man was Chen Yutong's stepfather,
wasn't he?

Li Han's husband.

Right?

What's your relationship with Li Han?

What did you two do?

Where is Chen Yutong now?

She's free.

Back off.

Sir.

What?

You said you wanted to see me.

What is it about?

Sir, take a look at this.

Your son gave this to us voluntarily.

If we turn this in,

he'll get a reduction in his sentence.

And we'll get a reward, too.

Chen Yutong was nine.

And all the cases
seemed to be connected to her.

Now, she's missing.

I think we must find Tong
as soon as possible.

The fastest way to do that
is to put out an APB.

Has Li Han seen the evidence?

No.

Wait a minute, then.

I'll go in alone.

You two stay here.

- Okay.
- Sir.

Major TV networks have been receiving

phone videos titled "Lin Zaifu".

A while ago, the Jing Hwa
serial killer case was solved.

According to the police report,

in order to cover up
bullying incidents in school,

An Huaimin, the headmaster, had bribed
the authorities on several occasions

and engaged in donation fraud
through collaboration with Build Together.

Officer, I've confessed everything.

Did you find Tong?

Let me in.

No one can know what happened today.

Mommy's here.

Mommy's here.

Why didn't you call the police?

I killed him.

Officer.

Tong has nothing to do with this.

I killed him.

- We were married for two years.
- Listen to me.

- He never stopped hitting me.
- Nothing you say matters now.

The evidence will talk.

We are officially arresting Chen Yutong.

I confessed. I killed him.

It has nothing to do with Tong.

She's innocent. I'm begging you.

Officer, please, I'm begging you.

Let me ask you again.

Why didn't you call the police?

He was a good dad at first.

I didn't expect he'd become a monster.

I never should've left Tong alone
at home that day.

How would I have known Chen Mingzhang
would come home one day earlier?

Her.

When I saw her, she was bleeding.

I'm a mother.

She was so young. And she is a girl.

How could I call the police, Officer?

You said I abused Tong.

I was just trying to show her
what the boundaries were.

I couldn't let anyone else
hurt her like that.

I wanted her to stay with me.

Was that so wrong?

Was it wrong?

Tong was braver than I thought.

She even wanted to set me free.

She left.

Officer, please.

I'm begging you to leave her alone.

Please leave her alone.

I'm begging you. Just leave her alone.

Officer Dai, please.

Don't go after her.

Get up.

You killed him. Let go of me.

I can charge you for assaulting
a police officer.

Do you understand?

- Brother Dai, what are you doing?
- Brother Dai, what are you doing?

When the rehearsal begins,
you know the drill.

Find your seats in the hall and sit down.

Tong.

What?

Abyss of peace.

Ms. Li.

Can you open the door
to the rooftop for me?

Good girl.

For Tong.
