The victim is young.

Her hymen is intact. Non-standard sexual intercourse is ruled out.

She wasn't sexually assaulted?

It's an empty ring box, yet she wrapped it so nice.

Is that ring really important to her?

We can pretty much confirm that Qi Jingjing has a mysterious boyfriend.

Sun Kai is Qi Jingjing's mystery boyfriend.

The victim was probably strangled to death but this pattern is a bit weird.

Li Xu. Male. 31 years old. He owns an outdoors sporting goods store.

His first marriage requirement for a partner says "virgin."

She even especially wrote on it that she's a virgin.

Anyway, I've found the purest love on the planet.

I'm sorry. I lied to you.

Pulling out the victim's molar tooth, does this have anything to do with torturing her?

He told me to pull out her molar tooth and put it next to her corpse.

Who is that person?

Jingjing, I want to ask you a question.

Did you ever love me?

Even if...

It's just for one moment.

Do you still remember when we first met?

You were sitting in that bus.

At dusk...

The sunlight made you so pure, so beautiful.

I will never take the bus anymore.

It's full of the smell of body odor.

Hurry up and drive me home.

You're here to help my business again?

Since you guys are such great supporters, as the owner,

- I must personally serve you. - Thank you.

Right now, our store has a promotional offer going on.

If a couple take a photo of them holding hands and put it on our wall,

then they can enjoy 70 percent off.

70 percent off?!

What do we do? You two, just do it.

We don't really care who takes a photo with who.

I miss my babe.

Tell her to join us then.

- A salad and coffee. - Sure.

Sirloin steak and a bottle of beer.

I'd Iike a food fighter combo and a large coke.

One moment please.

You're eating such a high-calorie meal. Aren't you worried about indigestion?

I'm not.

Judging from your metabolic rate and this meal's calorie count,

you'll have an extra 600 calories from this meal.

You'll need to run for an hour and a half to burn them off.

Otherwise, the calories will turn to fat and build up in parts of your body.

You're such a crazy data maniac.

I told you. A person who is poor in conversations deserves to be single.

You majored in medicine as well. That was just the basic biological common sense.

Why do I remember that someone is against speaking during a meal?

Qin is just concerned about you.

I'm just worried he'll be troubled from being so concerned.

Then, you must appreciate his concern.

Thank you!

Boss, there's a problem with your coffee today. It wasn't ground fresh. It's at least three to four hours old.

Please change it for me.

I will change it right away.

Qin.

You deserve to be single.

Look at her!

Another one!

She's acting dead really well!

So realistic!

Oh!

The knife looks real too!

The blood looks real too!

Get up!

Get up!

Get up, Miss!

Stop pretending!

She was stabbed so many times.

There are many wounds on her abdomen, but they aren't deep.

This is a plastic combat knife.

What kind of inexperienced killer use kind of weapon?

None of the wounds on her abdomen are lethal.

The victim is Tao Zi. She was 24 years old, and a tabloid reporter.

Everyone is dressed up in costumes because the bar

is hosting a horror themed party.

Was the victim stabbed to death?

It's possible she wasn't.

We need to do an autopsy right away. See you back at the bureau.

Sure.

In the preliminary examination, I discovered a butterfly shaped tattoo under her collar bone.

There is also some glittery powder under the nails of her right hand.

And she suffered seven stab wounds to her abdomen.

- Prepare for the autopsy. - Yes.

Judging from the depth of her wounds, none of the seven stab wounds were lethal.

- Open up her chest cavity. - Okay.

Scissor.

My preliminary judgment is that her pulmonary valve is narrow.

The size is kind of strange.

A normal person's heart should be the size of their fist.

This is already 1.5 times bigger than her fist.

She probably had a congenital heart disease.

A normal woman's heart weight should be around 250 grams to 300 grams.

Her's was already 400 grams.

I need to check the microscopic structure of the victim's organs

to see if there are any other diseases.

We spent the whole night researching about the heart. I want to eat roast chicken heart now.

Young lady, your taste has become kinkier.

Kid! It means you still need to practice.

Right now, we already ruled out the possible death by knife injury.

The real cause of death was congenital heart disease.

Heart disease?

Her pulmonary valve is narrow. That's enough to trigger a heart attack causing her sudden death.

During our investigation, we asked the victim's friends and colleagues but

they didn't even know that the victim had a heart disease.

Also, they said Tao Zi was very brave and liked to watch horror movies.

She also participate in horror costume parties regularly.

Because of this, the hotel manager asked her to participate in the party.

But, our examination of her heart condition indicates that

there were probably three possible ways that caused her death.

First one is heavy exercises causing overactivity of the heart.

From the cadaveric rigidity, she didn't have any vigorous exercise.

The second one is irregular work and rest causing the heart function to mess up.

The skin of the corpse is hydrated and smooth, showing no signs of an irregular lifestyle.

Dabao does show signs of irregular lifestyle.

His bad attitude is an early symptom of menopause.

The third one is excessive shock causing her heart disease to recur.

But everyone we interviewed said she was very bold.

Can we rule out the third cause then?

Based on the heart condition, the third option is more likely.

Like her, being a professional horror costume party participant,

her death can't be caused by shock.

Unless, it's something she was really afraid of.

But right now, we haven't ruled out the possibility that it was caused by medication.

Oh, I just went to the Trace Evidence Division and got Tao Zi's belongings.

We discovered this inside her pocket inside her jacket.

Quick Acting Heart Reliever?

Right, it's empty inside and it only has Tao Zi's fingerprints.

So, this was her personal item.

There's a trace of blood.

People from Trace Evidence said it was fake blood from syrup.

There's fake blood on it?

This means after the party started and Tao Zi finished her make up,

she ate the medication.

On Tao Zi's hand, we also found real and fake blood.

Two kinds of blood.

If the bottle of pills had been stained with real blood,

then that means she took the pills after getting stabbed.

However, the bottle is stained with fake blood.

That means she took the pills before she was stabbed.

There are many wounds on her abdomen but none are very deep.

Extract the victim's stomach contents to find the residue of the pills.

And see if this empty bottle has any problems.

It's possible the pills inside had been changed.

What could the pills have been substituted with?

A lot of drugs could cause rapid blood flow to the heart and cause it to beat abnormally.

Under those circumstances, if someone stabbed the victim

or agitated her in some way to cause her emotional distress,

then it's likely she could die suddenly from a heart attack.

Emotional distress? During our investigation yesterday, a lot of people told us

that the bar owner, Li Tianqi had a big argument with Tao Zi.

I think I'll need to investigate him.

But right now, none of our speculations work.

We have to start investigating from this pill bottle.

Say... the way you talk now

is more and more like Qin Ming.

Get out.

Your breathing sound is distracting me.

I'm more concerned about

what she was so afraid of.

Officer Lin. Here's the surveillance video.

I heard that before Tao Zi died last night, she met you in private.

That's right.

And you two had an argument as well?

It was just a small squabble.

A squabble? Why?

There were too many customers last night

so I couldn't attend to her really well. We are close so we're always like this.

- I heard that she is your high school classmate? - Yes.

Then did you know that she had a heart disease?

Our high school teacher mentioned it before. Tao Zi was very bold.

She never went to see doctors, so we all didn't take it seriously.

Okay, I got it.

I'll contact you if I have any more questions.

Sure.

Do you have any new findings?

I found traces of tricyclic antidepressants in the bottle.

Such antidepressants are the worst for patients with heart disease.

Your speculation seems to be correct then.

Let me show you something.

Look here.

On the night of the murder, the bar owner did meet up with Tao Zi.

They even had a heated argument.

But it doesn't seem like it was him who substituted the pills.

The two of them were high school classmates and are pretty close.

But throughout the video,

we can see that the bar owner was running the reception

and he didn't leave at all. They did have an argument,

but Tao Zi left really quickly. The bar owner

had no way of changing the pills.

But, the bar owner's attitude is suspicious.

They had an argument and it's obvious in the video.

But when he was answering me, he gave me very vague answers.

Then is he hiding something else from us? But he didn't have a chance to switch out the pills.

We can rule him out as the murderer.

Do you have any other clues?

On the night of the murder, Tao Zi met another person.

- Who was it? - Zhang Yi.

That famous actress?

That's right. I looked her up online and she's bothered by rumors and scandals right now.

And the scandals were exposed by the same person.

Was it all done by Tao Zi?

Correct.

She does have the motive.

They two even met before.

Should we go and meet her?

I'll go with you.

Miss Zhang, did you meet up with Tao Zi yesterday?

I did. What is it?

She's dead.

What? Dead?

Is this some sort of reality show prank?

You already saw our police badges earlier.

Don't tell me you think I killed her.

That's hilarious.

Yes, I do have a lot of scandals right now.

I only saw her to shut her mouth by using money.

People like her will stop reporting when there is money anyways.

We didn't have any contact personally.

Boss. Wanwan is home.

Wanwan, you're home!

- Tell Mommy if you had a good time. - She's nice.

- And this is... - She's my assistant.

Mengmeng, take Wanwan inside.

Get the police some water.

Sure.

I admit that I didn't really like Tao Zi.

But I wouldn't resort to killing her, would I?

It's ridiculous for you guys to suspect me like this.

If you need to gather evidence, I'm willing to cooperate with your investigation.

Thank you.

- Have some tea. - Thank you.

Then, did you know that Tao Zi had a heart disease?

She has a heart disease? Stop joking around.

Every time she chases after me, she runs even faster than the male reporters.

Then can you please cooperate with us and let us take your fingerprint?

Yes, if you guys need it.

Okay.

- Here. - Can this ink be rinsed off?

You can wipe it off. You need to give us all ten of your prints.

Please prepare some wet tissues.

Okay. Thank you.

If any questions come up we'll be in touch.

Excuse me but we're both your fans.

Say, can you let your assistant help take a photo of us three?

What?

You didn't come to my house just for this, did you?

Thank you. Thank you.

One. Two. Three. Cheese.

The fingerprint on the knife doesn't match Zhang Yi's.

It makes sense if you think about it. Even Tao Zi's friends didn't know she had a heart disease,

not to mention a female celebrity that was photographed secretly.

The clue leads to a dead end again.

I have another person's fingerprint. Compare it.

- Whose is it? - Compare it first and then we'll talk.

Exactly whose fingerprint is this?

Zhang Yi's assistant, Mengmeng.

When we went to Zhang Yi's house and was talking about Tao Zi's case,

I found that Zhang Yi's face only showed rage but not panic.

You suspect that I killed her?

So I ruled out the possibility of it being Zhang Yi.

Then, I realized that her assistant Mengmeng's face was a bit unnatural.

That was when I came up with an idea.

Would you mind asking your assistant to take a photo of the three of us?

Dabao, nice. I thought that you like to chase after stars!

Praise your apprentice. She did really well.

No need.

I did stab her but she deserved it.

Please explain.

I worked with my boss for more than four years.

I do her bidding and chores every day. I take care of her at all times.

I go with her to television shows. I go with her to film on sets.

Day and night, I take care of her without complaints. I never had a day off.

But she hits me and wanted to fire me.

It's all because of Tao Zi, that bitch. I thought she approached me because she truly wanted to be friends with me.

I didn't think that she was to get more news about my boss.

Then she added more to the facts to make fake stories.

She even ratted me out to my boss saying that I had told her about my boss's personal matters.

She made me a loser on both sides.

So you killed her?

I didn't kill her. I used a plastic knife.

It didn't even have a real blade. How could that have possibly killed her?

Then did you know she had a heart disease?

I didn't know. She never mentioned it.

I was slapped by my boss. That was all. I just wanted to teach her a lesson.

I went to see her. It happened to be a costume party. They wouldn't let me in if I didn't dress up.

I had my makeup down and saw her coming into the dressing room.

She was telling the truth. The wounds on the victim are very shallow. They were all small stabs except one.

However, the blade entered the flesh at an angle that suggests the victim fell onto the knife and stabbed herself.

The person holding the knife never meant to hurt her. She didn't think this would happen.

Why would the victim be in the dressing room? The party was at its climax that time.

With the victim's personality, she would have been out having fun that time.

Most importantly, when did she take the antidepressants?

After she was stabbed, she had real blood on her hands. But there was only fake blood on the bottle.

That means she was already frightened by something before she was stabbed.

We can only deduce that there was another murderer in the club.

So both culprits accidentally took action on the same day?

We can to go to the crime scene again. I just discovered something interesting.

Mr. Li. We need to know what you were arguing about with Tao Zi on the night of the murder.

It was just a small matter.

What small matter? This is a murder case!

If you don't come clean, then we will have to take action!

We need to examine the dressing room.

Dressing room?

What is your new finding?

The victim had this powder under her nails.This is luminous powder. This was my first discovery.

Secondly, Tao Zi is a professional photographer. Or more precisely she was a candid photographer.

She knew all about hidden cameras.

One method is to make a one-way mirror.

If you place your fingers on the mirror and there's no gap between the finger and the reflection,

it means this is a one-way mirror.

Normally in a mirror, there's a gap between the object and its reflection.

Explain yourself.

It's just my hobby to film woman when they get changed.

But I've never distributed any of those videos.

Who cares about that? Let me ask you. Did you and Tao Zi argue about this?

She found out I was secretly filming her and argued with me about it.

I promised to pay her 100,000 yuan so she wouldn't report it. That's all.

Where are the other videos?

They are downstairs.

Take us there.

Sergeant Lin, they are ready.

Okay.

She must have went out to fight with him.

Tao Zi's coat is the yellow one closest to the mirror.

But the process of switching the pills was blocked.

That's it?

I was hoping that we could close the case with this video.

Can we find this guy by the costume he was wearing?

About 60 percent of the customers who came to the bar for the party were dressed in this costume.

It's the disposable one that was sold at the entrance that night. It's impossible to investigate from that.

That's true.

I already found a clue.

The powder on the mirror is luminous. The guy leaned on it for a while.

Whatever he did, his cloak must be covered in the luminous powder.

Fortunately it was a big party so we have enough data of what happened that night.

I had the detectives collect everything. From this clip you can see

that after this guy left the dressing room, he went straight toward the entrance. That means--

That means he wasn't there to attend the party but had an ulterior motive.

To avoid being discovered, he never once took off his mask.

We have enough clues now.

But we still don't know what he looks like.

He would have attracted a lot of attention on the streets wearing that outfit.

So he drove here?

Now we'll have to rely on our densely located traffic cameras in the city.

I found it. I found it!

When did you guys fall asleep? Some friends you are!

Come! Come here and take a look.

Look. That's him.

Where will these fake blood prints lead us?

There are other shoe prints here. Judging from the size and pattern, it should be a woman's shoe.

Qin, I found a few strands of hair!

If someone who's death you caused showed up in front of you,

this could count as a trauma. It could be enough to trigger a heart attack.

Officers, you can investigate me if you want. But bring all the evidence first.

This is evidence of Jiang Tian switching the medicine.

I have done my revenge, what about you?

What exactly do you know?!?
