This incomplete report involves your father's malpractice and suicide for fear of punishment.

If this case is brought up again,

it might mean that your father's malpractice is invalid.

Based on what I know, Qin Ming is privately re-investigating his father's case 20 years ago.

The medical examiner in charge of the case that time was another person.

- Who? - His name is Fan Jian.

The person that I have tried to avoid for 20 years

still came.

My father didn't get the chance to report you.

The night before he was to submit the report,

he died.

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

- Stop joking. - Is that true?

- That's interesting. - Of course, it's true.

Let's happily celebrate this.

Just let go and be happy.

- How come the food isn't ready yet. - I am also wondering.

You are so cute. Be a nice boy.

- Dinner is ready! Come, let's eat! - It's cake time!

Wow!

- Wow! - Okay. Wait for me for a while.

Let me see your hands! What toy are you holding?!

- What are you pulling me? - Let me play with it for a while!

- I won't let you catch me! - Let me play for a while!

- You won't be able to catch me! - Let me play with it for a while!

Let me play with it. Let me play and I won't catch you anymore.

- Come. Come. - Let me play for a while. He won't let me play. - Stop it.

Hey, say hi.

Hi! Hello!

Today is Qin Ming's birthday.

Let us all sing a birthday song for Qin Ming.

- Okay. Come. - I'll start it.

♫ Happy birthday to you! ♫

♫ Happy birthday to you! ♫

♫ Happy birthday to you! ♫

♫ Happy birthday to you! ♫

♫ Happy birthday to you! ♫

- Good! Good! - Happy birthday!

Thank you daddy and mommy! Thank you, everyone!

Make a wish.

Good! Good!

Son, what was your wish?

I wish that I can live with daddy and mommy forever.

Good son. We will.

Mingming is so nice.

Come. Okay.

I'm envious.

Everyone, cheers.

Wish Xiaoming a happy birthday.

Let me tell you

about one...

I am not good at cooking. Everyone, just make do and eat them.

Okay. Okay. Come, taste them.

Wow.

Naughty boy.

I'll bite you. Look...

Son, what do you want to be when you grow up?

I want to be like you, be a medical examiner.

My good son.

- Can you still take it? What's wrong with you? - I don't know what's wrong with me today.

- I just drank two glasses and I'm already like this. - You used to be good in drinking.

Tingting, hand me a towel.

Where is the towel? Where is it?

Isn't there a yellow one there?

Wait a minute.

Where?

Isn't there a yellow one there?

Wait a minute.

The subscriber you're calling is currently unanswered.

Eat some fruits.

Thanks.

The last time I saw you, you were only eight years old.

In a blink of an eye, you're now a young lad.

You look a lot like your father when he was young.

There must be a lot of girls chasing you, right?

Oh my.

If your parents are still alive

and see how you have grown up, how good would that be?

That...

You said on the phone that you want to ask me about details during your birthday party.

Yes. Mainly, I want to know

the details before my father fell to his death.

Sure. I will tell you everything that I can remember.

That night, did you notice anything odd?

Any minor detail is fine.

Fore example, did anyone come, what did you eat, what did you drink,

did anyone say anything weird?

Odd things?

I must think hard about it. Let me think.

That day, a lot of people came.

You were sitting between your parents.

Let's have a toast for my son.

I was sitting beside your father.

Your alcohol tolerance is small. Don't drink too much.

It's fine. I won't drink much. I know my limit.

That's right. It doesn't matter at all.

As a woman, I even drink a lot.

Look at you, you have married my beautiful best friend.

And have got such a handsome child. I really envy you.

Today, bottoms up. Cheers!

Your father usually didn't smoke and rarely drank alcohol.

You mother kept an eye on him as well.

He was quite obedient with your mother.

Help me look at this photo too. Among the people in this photo, did anyone went up the rooftop with my father midway?

Oh, that day, everyone was very happy.

We drank quite a lot. I indeed was quite tipsy that day.

There are some things that I might not be able to remember.

If I do remember them, I would have said them during the investigation.

Your mother really looked pretty in this white sweater.

She was fair skinned, so she looked very pretty when wearing white.

We all envied her.

What color did you say this sweater is?

That sweater is white.

You're not color blind?

Of course not. Isn't this a white sweater?

- Help me get a towel? - Where is there a towel?

Where?

Isn't there a yellow one?

Wait a minute.

How come at this time? You described that white towel as a yellow towel?

That's right. Why did I say that it was yellow?

That's right. After drinking that day, everything to me was colored yellow.

I've always felt strange about it.

- What did you drink? - We all drank the same thing.

The food were cooked by your mother. What we drank was osmanthus flower wine.

I usually am able to drink a lot. But the wine that day

was indeed a bit strong. I haven't drunk much but I already felt unwell, headache, and even vomited.

Is your symptom of headache, vomiting, and seeing everything as yellow all happened at the same time?

Right. Right. You have reminded me.

I asked for the towel because I just got back from vomiting and wanted to wipe my face.

What else have you drunk that day?

What else? Lao Luo wouldn't let me drink anymore. It was me who insisted on drinking.

Lao Qin was also drunk, having headaches, and vomited a lot. Why then didn't he control Lao Qin?

Which Lao Luo are you talking about?

Your Uncle Luo, Luo Yao.

The serial killer can't wait anymore and had went to see you.

He used your father's death to catch your attention.

This means that he is a person with very traditional values.

Auntie Wang, thank you.

Do you still know anyone who knew about my parents' situation very well?

I still have some questions that I want to ask him or her.

Your parents' teacher, Professor Fang.

- Professor Fang? - Yes.

Qin Ming!

Qin Ming!

Hey...

It's locked.

Say, the light is even on.

Other than the two of us, he has no other friend.

Where can he go at this time?

He wouldn't really have gone to a date, right?

Oh, my. If that's really the case, then that's great!

It can remove the suspicions about him and me.

Oh, my, this is like looking for a an empress for the emperor of our forensic world.

If you ask me, my baby should look for a guy like Qin Ming.

Just two days, and she'll have gone crazy.

Let me tell you that if not because I have such obsessive passion for forensic pathology, I would have changed my career early on.

Can I give you an advice?

Stop keep saying Baobao (baby) , I find it awkward.

Say...

Could Qin Ming be in some trouble?

If he is, then it must be a big one.

Think about it. For a work addict like him, would he be absent from work?

That's what I'm afraid of.

He probably went to date.

Say, what about these stuff?

Let's just keep it first. What if he really got a sister-in-law for us?

These can serve as a first meeting gift.

You are using these as a first meeting gift? You're such a miser.

Don't belittle me. Once I get a raise in salary, I'll be more generous.

Where did he go?

Thank you, Mr. Sun. Sorry for the trouble.

You're welcome.

Those files are all inside. Just help yourself.

The autopsy reports for 1995 are at that area.

Just go look at it by yourself.

Thanks.

Qin Ming? You have already grown this much?

It seems that I'm really old.

Have you seen me before?

Not just seen,

I've carried you when you were 3 or 4 years old.

I remember that was at a class reunion five years after Class One of the 1978 alumni graduated.

Your parents brought you there.

Were my parents both your students?

They both were.

Because Class One of 1978 was the first class I taught after graduating.

Also, I got along very well with them, so my impression of them is quite deep.

I have their group picture.

Here.

Sit. Sit.

Your father Qin Song was the most outstanding student in their class.

But he instead chose to be a medical examiner.

Let's not talk about that...

Oh, right, child. How have you been doing? What's your occupation?

I am a medical examiner.

Same as my father.

You made the same decision as your father.

I want to be a medical examiner.

A medical examiner?

That is a very professional and hard job.

Teacher, we don't have many professional forensic investigators in our city.

There are still many vacancies in this field.

Actually, there are a lot of doctors curing people.

But there are not many speaking for the dead.

You are the most outstanding student in our class.

You must think about this clearly.

Teacher, this is not an impulsive decision.

I've thought about it for a long time.

Since that's the case, I will respect your choice.

But what I want to say is this is a difficult job without much credit.

Teacher, I've already prepared myself for it.

Your father suddenly chose the profession of a medical examiner.

I indeed felt that it was a bit regretful.

Based on his qualifications, he could have easily got into a 3A hospital.

Afterwards, I saw that he was doing quite well in his job. I then felt at ease.

Until afterwards, that trouble happened.

Let's talk about something else.

Did my parents start dating while still in school?

About this matter, it is quite a long story.

That time, the first one who courted your mother was not your father.

It was a guy named Luo Yao.

- Luo Yao? - This incomplete report

involves the suicide committed by your father for fear of punishment.

If this case is brought up again, it might mean that more than one person handled this case.

Your father's malpractice might be invalid.

Luo Yao and your parents are all students with excellent character and grades.

They are ever very good friends.

Luo Yao loved your mother at first sight, but your mother didn't accept him.

Until their graduating year, Qin Song and Ye Qing then got together.

Everyone then understood what was going on.

Me? Just okay.

Wait.

For you.

This leaf's coronary arteries are clear and distinguishable.

Blood circulation is smooth.

It's in very good health.

Yours is a standard answer, but it's not what I want.

Are there anything else?

Also, this leaf has a beautiful shape and an outstanding external appearance.

It looks very similar to you.

Hello, teacher.

Luo Yao?

There is another lady in this group picture.

Who is she?

Her name is Meng Ruyue.

During the time that Luo Yao was in his most depressed state, Meng Ruyue entered his life.

And very soon, they got married.

Your fever will be gone by tomorrow.

Let's just continue your IV fluids.

You'll be fine.

Xiao Zhao, give her IV fluids tomorrow.

Okay.

What's your problem?

Dr. Meng Ruyue, right?

I have a case that I want to ask you about.

It's about the autopsy report of the case of Qin Song 20 years ago, who fell from a building.

I am not a medical examiner anymore.

For this matter, try to look for somebody else.

I am also a forensic examiner. I read the autopsy report.

The blood test came back negative for alcohol and drugs. That's impossible.

According to the description by the witnesses, the victim drank alcohol and showed signs of dizziness and vomiting.

We were certain that the victim died from the impact of the fall.

The blood tests were normal.

We didn't find any problem.

That's it.

That day, everyone was very happy. We drank quite a lot.

I usually am able to drink a lot.

But the wine that day... I haven't drunk much but I already felt unwell,

had a headache, and even vomited.

Lao Qin was also drunk,

had a headache, and vomited a lot.

Based on Auntie Wang's narration and the images recorded on the tape,

Everyone there showed signs of alcohol intoxication.

But the autopsy report showed that the blood alcohol level is within normal.

The autopsy report clearly is doubtful.

Her name is Meng Ruyue, Luo Yao's ex-wife.

We were certain that the victim died due to the impact of the fall.

His blood chemical tests are normal.

If what Auntie Wang said is true,

then what is Meng Ruyue hiding?

Tingting, get me a towel.

Where can I find a towel?

Isn't there a yellow one there?

After drinking alcohol that day, everything I see was yellow.

Is your symptom of headache, vomiting, and seeing everything as yellow all happened at the same time?

Right. Right.

Yellow vision.

What then could have caused the yellow vision?

Drug effect.

Digoxin?

A common cardiac drug.

If you get poisoned from an overdose...

Director General, you're looking for me?

Lin Tao,

your performance recently is not bad. Your case solving efficiency is quite high.

It's just alright.

What is it, Director General?

Are you going to raise my pay?

Forget the raise in pay. If given the chance, I might give you raise in working time.

Let me ask you.

Do you have any opinion on the recent successive cases of missing molars:?

I feel that these cases are surely connected.

Also, there might be a mastermind behind all of them.

He treated the molars of each victim as his crime signature.

Continue saying it.

Also, I feel that this person is provoking the police.

But because he is in the dark, while we are out in the open,

he might be playing a cat and mouse game with us.

Hence, his actions wouldn't be that fast.

What kind of person do you think is the perpetrator?

This person...

Because our present clues are very few, I just indistinctly feel that this person is highly skilled.

As for others, we currently can't notice anything.

For the past days, Qin Ming didn't come to work.

Do you know where he went?

He didn't tell me, either.

Also, I've been calling him these past days, but he wasn't answering.

He probably is handling some private matters.

What is it? You need anything from him?

Let me tell you this.

From what I know, Qin Ming currently is re-investigating the case of his father.

Lin Tao, you must be alert. Keep a close eye on him.

Inform me right away if anything happens.

I'll leave him to you.

Digoxin poisoning

can lead to symptoms of dizziness, headache, tiredness, blurred vision,

insomnia, vomiting, and delirium.

Yellow vision syndrome makes a person have a yellow vision.

Tingting, help get me a towel.

Where can I find a towel?

Isn't there a yellow towel over there?

It would have been seen in any blood test. Why didn't you say it?

Who are you covering up for?

Is it Luo Yao?

He is your ex-husband.

He also knows your habit of taking Digoxin pills.

He is also a person that's obsessed with fantasy

and still in love with your mother.

Your parents were sincerely in love with each other.

He made the wrong calculation.

Even if your father died, he wouldn't get the chance.

Why didn't you stop him?

You are so naive.

You really thought that I knew about this matter beforehand?

When I saw your father's corpse,

when I discovered that the digoxin level in his blood was above normal.

Only then did I know what happened.

But what can I do?

That time, he was my husband.

Can I bear to watch him get imprisoned?

What about me?

I watched my own father lying in the center of a pool of blood.

Afterwards, I watched how he got slandered to have been derelict in his duty.

I've wrongly accused my father for 20 years.

After this matter, my mother also got depressed and eventually died.

What was I doing?

I treated Luo Yao as my teacher.

Uncle Luo, I came this time to ask you about some things.

Isn't Luo Yao a friend of my father?

Why did he do this?!

You said that I'm so naive.

I also feel that I was too naive.

I can't understand one thing.

You both were medical examiners too.

But for personal interests,

you murdered a friend

and abused your authority to frame him up.

You think you are worthy of your profession and able to face your friends?

Qin Song and Ye Qing were never my friends!

I just fell in love with the wrong person.

He'd rather kill for a woman that didn't love him,

but he never loved me.

Even so,

he still left.

Let me ask you one last question.

Where can I find Luo Yao?

My god! It's in the middle of the night and raining, yet you didn't even had an umbrella.

You scared me.

♫ Forever. ♫

The victim's name is Luo Yao, 57 years old.

Presently, our deduction is he might have been killed by a person he knew.

Majority of the external surface of the victim is covered with blood, but I didn't discover any large wound.

Why then would he bleed that much?

A witness claimed that she saw Qin Ming at the crime scene.

Qin Ming?

Was it him?

Where can I find Luo Yang?

There is a wound.

The wound is deep but the degree of skin tear isn't that large.

From the manner of killing, it might be someone with medical knowledge.

Currently, we're sure that the top suspect is Section Chief Qin from the Medical Examiner Section.

Regretfully, he is the top suspect of this case.

Qin Ming, if you don't tell me the truth, I won't be able to help you.

Qin Ming is presently the suspect of this case, that's why, you must stay away from it.

Go home and rest for a day.

Do you believe in Qin Ming?

No matter if you're a forensic pathologist or a criminal investigator, we make deductions based on the truth.

That's why, the more we trust in Qin Ming,

the more we must find the truth. Am I right?
