[Be Reborn]

[Episode 3]

Dazhi,

how many people are there including Hao?

Five people.

Okay.

Liao Shuang.

Yes, sir.

Contact the nearest patrols you can get.

Tell them to rush to the scene.

Yes, sir.

Wait!

This truck,

when did it exit the warehouse?

It was 2:40 PM.

Find out what time

that white car entered the warehouse.

It was 2:38 PM.

Show me the truck again.

Don't be impatient.

We'll be there soon.

I've confiscated his phone.

I've searched his body too.

No one was tracking us.

I didn't expect us

to meet again so soon.

It must have been a tough journey.

Do you have to make it

this complicated?

Every trade has its own rules.

I guess

your father never taught you about it.

He and I are two different individuals.

But

his blood is flowing within you after all.

Last night,

you managed to dupe

the cops, right?

This is what we call talent.

We haven't gotten ahold

of the truck's travel records.

They did all that

just to pick up this Zhuang Wenjie?

Before this, he offered a painting to him.

Now, he's changing vehicles just to pick him up.

Ding Shenghuo has spent so much effort

to get his hands on Zhuang Wenjie.

What exactly is he up to?

Wait, you said

he offered a painting to him?

The president of Deyao Group,

Liao Detong.

You must have heard of him before.

This president

has no other hobbies.

But he's obsessed with collecting

rare treasures.

He put his money and effort

into them.

In order to protect

his precious collections,

Liao Detong

has hired the most professional security group.

He even installed a face recognition system,

motion capture system,

and other security technology

of the highest caliber in his vault.

He's the only person who can unlock

the vault to his most valuable collections.

Our target

is that vault.

Didn't you say

that he

is the only person who can unlock the vault?

How can we enter the vault then?

If we wish to unlock this vault,

we need a special key.

What key?

"Water Lily".

We'll sell this painting

to Liao Detong.

Mr. Ding,

I don't understand.

Even if we sell it to him,

we still can't enter

the vault.

We don't need to enter the vault.

We just need the painting to enter the vault.

"Water Lily"

isn't a rare treasure.

How could you be sure that Liao Detong

would definitely buy it from you?

Moreover, the "Water Lily" theft case

had caused a huge commotion.

Do you think Liao Detong is daring enough to buy it?

He will buy it.

He will definitely buy it

because of you.

Me?

Your father is Zhuang Yaobai.

Liao Detong has complete trust in him.

I've told you already.

He and I are two different individuals.

Moreover, I don't even know

Liao Detong.

There's no need for that.

I've already sent your picture

to Liao Detong.

When he knew

that you were the son of Zhuang Yaobai,

he arranged for an appointment immediately

as he wanted to see you.

I understand now.

However, I have one condition.

After the deed is done,

you need to tell me the story behind the picture.

After that,

we'll be even.

It's a deal.

I'll bring the painting here right now.

Wait.

Before this, this kid said

he only managed to dupe the cops by mixing

the real and fake paintings.

If something happens

when I acquire the painting alone,

he can escape unscathed

while I have no way to explain myself.

You do have a point.

Sorry to trouble you then.

You better don't try anything funny.

[Shunkang Car Workshop]

Stop wasting time.

Open the door.

I must say,

it's really hard to tell

when you mix the fake and real paintings together.

Zhuang Wenjie,

what are you trying to do?

What else can I do?

I'm going to retrieve the painting.

How dare you deceive me?

Didn't you say

you mixed the fake and the real paintings?

Do you believe that I'll kill you right now?

Your threat won't work on me.

If something happens to me,

you won't be able to explain yourself to Ding Shenghuo.

If so, you better keep the painting well.

It's best if nothing happens.

If not, you'll be the one

who will be in trouble.

What are you doing?

I'm closing the window

so that no thugs

will be able to sneak into my house again.

Fine.

I'll knock before I come in next time.

Wait.

What?

Youngsters like you

should look on the bright side more often.

Let's go.

My goodness, what are you up to again?

Look at the size of it.

Do you think I can just bring it out like that?

Of course, I have to use a bag.

Captain Luo, they're going downstairs.

Hao, I'll leave the rest to you guys.

My goodness.

It was too close.

We almost bumped into them.

So, you actually know how dangerous it is?

If so, why didn't you tell me that they were back?

It's my fault.

Zhuang Wenjie, he...

I didn't even have time to do a marking.

I was hoping

that the kid could notice

the edge of the tablecloth which I had folded.

Luckily, he's a smart boy.

He's much smarter than you.

Do you know that?

I...

So, did he find the painting?

Did they come to retrieve the painting?

(I just told him about this yesterday.)

I told him that the best way

to leave the dark side

was to work hard

and try to stand on the side of justice.

And look, he delivered the painting

to us today.

That means

he's made a decision now.

I was pretty happy about that.

However,

we found no leads

regarding the truck.

Ding Shenghuo went through a lot to steal this painting.

And he hid it within Zhuang Wenjie's house.

I'm sure he has some sort of ulterior motives.

If so, can you be sure

that Zhuang Wenjie isn't one of them?

I'm not sure about that,

but I think I can trust him.

First, we need to ensure

his safety.

We need to ensure the painting stays intact too.

Understood.

We'll follow your plan.

We got the painting.

We'll head back right now.

Captain Luo, they're departing.

Don't let them vanish from your sight.

Don't get too close either. They will see you.

Roger that.

Zhuang Wenjie.

Calling for Zhuang Wenjie.

Zhuang Wenjie,

can you hear me?

If you can,

cough for me.

Time is running out.

Listen to my instruction.

What you're wearing right now

is a mini bone-conduction earpiece.

It's a communication device.

We can hear whatever

that's happening on your side.

Of course, you may speak to me

when it's necessary.

However, you must make sure

that you're perfectly safe before you speak.

Our current mission

is to confirm

the final goal

and the next plan

of Ding Shenghuo and his gang.

So, you must remember this.

Follow my instructions.

You must never

test them at your own risk.

If you understand me,

speak to the driver.

Turn on the air-conditioner.

It's so stuffy in here.

Fine.

Ensure your safety.

[Map]

He's heading to Hanwen Street again.

Seems like he's just making the same turn over and over again.

He's pretty crafty.

[Hanwen Street]

They've stopped.

Where did they stop?

At the intersection

between Kunming Road and Gehong Road.

It's

a car workshop.

Find out the number of cameras

in that area.

Alright, I'll check it out.

They're really crafty.

They chose a great spot.

There's no CCTV

on this road yet.

Hao,

according to what we've seen,

this place is pretty complicated.

And, they didn't stop

even though they passed by the entrance twice.

That means

they're good at setting up anti-reconnaissance measures.

Be careful.

[Shunkang Car Workshop]

Zhuang Wenjie.

Do you hear me?

What happened?

There are two possibilities.

First,

there's a powerful electrical machinery

or radio beside him.

The frequency it produces

is similar to our wireless signal,

thus, affecting our signal.

Change the frequency.

I can change the frequency of the terminal.

However,

I cannot change

Zhuang Wenjie's frequency

without connecting to his equipment.

What should we do then?

There's another possibility.

They might have

installed a jammer

in the car workshop in advance

to avoid

being tracked.

Are they this smart?

Now,

we cannot keep track of Zhuang Wenjie.

What if he's in danger?

To be inked without being stained,

it's unsullied.

This is a magnificent painting indeed.

Luckily, I had a trick in reserve.

This kid did try something funny

when we went to retrieve the painting.

It's fine as long as the painting was retrieved.

The details don't matter.

Mr. Ding,

so,

what's our next move?

You should modify the painting.

Before this, you said

it'd work as long as the painting entered the vault.

Don't tell me

you think Liao Detong

will be in a great mood

and invite you to his vault

after he has received this painting?

Wenjie,

you and your father

are different indeed.

You're much more

humorous than him.

What is this?

This?

This is a new toy

that the Germans had invented.

It's called Beetle.

It serves to shield

and interrupt electromagnetic signals.

Not even the security scanners can detect it.

Is it that amazing?

It may look small,

but when you activate it,

all security systems

within a 30m radius

will malfunction.

That includes the electromagnetic sensor

at the vault's entrance.

(Now, the entire city is looking for this painting.)

(Once Liao Detong has his hands on this,)

(he will surely)

(keep it within his vault)

(and wait for things to settle down.)

(At this moment,)

(I just need to press this button.)

(The Beetle)

(hidden within the painting)

(will activate automatically.)

(By then,)

no matter how tight security is

inside the auction house,

it's nothing but junk

in front of me.

Be careful

when you hide it within the painting.

Don't dirty the painting.

If you guys can't do it,

you should let me do it.

Hide it properly.

Got it.

Crow.

I know you care a lot about this painting.

Don't worry.

I will make sure it's untouched.

If not,

we won't be able to deceive Liao Detong.

It's almost time.

You two will head there together

after half an hour.

Yes, sir.

So soon?

The longer we wait, the riskier it will get.

This is a hot potato.

The sooner we deliver it, the better.

But Wenjie,

you're too young.

You're too inexperienced

to bargain with veterans.

I have to teach you some tricks.

Sit down.

A Jetta

just came out of the workshop.

The license plate is Qing K32518.

It's the same driver.

Zhuang Wenjie is sitting at the back.

Roger that.

Group B, tail the car. Group A, standby.

Roger that.

Zhuang Wenjie,

can you hear me?

It's like this.

We lost your signal

after you went into the workshop.

What?

Ding Shenghuo told me

that Liao Detong

would buy that painting as long as I'm there.

If so, what's the relationship

between Liao Detong and Zhuang Yaobai?

Liao Detong? Search for him.

Now, you're trying to inquire about your father?

Who was the one who said

that he was unrelated to him?

I have to at least make things clear

before I go there, right?

What if they're enemies?

I'm not clear

about your family's history

and I don't care about it.

However, Ding said

that Liao Detong has complete trust in Zhuang Yaobai.

Nothing will go wrong

as long as we follow his advice.

I found him.

Liao Detong.

[Liao Detong] President of Deyao Group.

He's a famous entrepreneur and collector

of Qingcheng City.

Three years ago,

he established a private auction house.

It mainly sells Chinese handicrafts and paintings.

[Liao Detong, president of Deyao Group, Qingcheng City]

The Beetle

that Ding Shenghuo had mentioned,

is it truly that amazing?

It's just a tiny thing

that's hidden within the painting's scroll.

Can it really disable

Liao Detong's security system?

You're pretty talkative, aren't you?

Ding's plan

is perfect.

You just need

to do your own part.

I'm just worried

about whether we can enter the vault

successfully.

Since we're on the same boat now,

I have to know

if I can get off the boat safely.

What?

Even until now,

you still don't believe in Ding's ability,

huh?

I believe in his ability.

Regarding the Beetle

that he mentioned just now,

How does it work?

[Police] It's an electromagnetic jammer.

It works

by producing high-frequency electromagnetic waves

to affect

or even stop

the surrounding electronic devices

from working properly.

Regarding the jamming situation

we've encountered just now,

it might be attributed

to such a device.

But ordinary jammers

are pretty huge.

I've never heard

of a jammer as tiny as this.

Seems like

I have to do some homework when I get back.

You're right.

Ding Shenghuo is amazing indeed.

He's even better than the cops.

Yesterday, when the cop, Luo Jian,

came into my room,

I duped him

by just making up lies.

Ding Shenghuo is so elusive.

I feel like he can locate me

at any time.

Who is he trying to insult?

If the cops are one step earlier,

Ding is ten steps earlier than them.

We're already gone

when those stupid cops

discover something.

You think we're too slow.

You think that we're not trying our best

to deal with them, right?

That's right.

Rest assured.

Don't let your imagination run wild.

I understand your feelings.

We don't have enough evidence

if we act right now.

They won't be able to stay convicted for long.

I'm sure you don't want

these people to come and pester you again

after

a few years, right?

Just be patient.

Let's catch them red-handed this time.

What should we do about the painting then?

Are you guys going to forget about it

after selling it to Liao Detong?

Are you retarded?

Why are you mentioning that again?

Don't worry.

I'm more worried about the painting than you.

You're speaking strangely.

I know what's wrong with you.

I think

you weren't talking to me just now.

You were complaining about Ding

just now, weren't you?

You must be retarded.

Is the painting

that important to you?

If you are so concerned,

I'll steal it from the vault,

okay?

By the way,

I have something to ask you too.

Just now, what exactly did Ding tell you

when he told you to meet him in private

for the deal with Liao Detong?

He's trying to extract information from you. Be careful.

He told me to be careful.

Is that all?

Think before you speak.

He even told me to think before I speak.

He told me to follow his instructions

and utter sentence by sentence.

I feel like

I'm a tool right now.

That's how Ding does things.

Just follow his instructions.

You better watch out if you act on your own initiative

and ruin the plan.

Group B, be careful.

Maintain your distance.

Roger that.

[Fengming Pavilion]

Mr. Hua.

Guys,

I'm sorry about this,

but we need to screen you first.

What?

There's nothing for you to screen.

Don't be nervous.

This is just a procedure.

We're here to do business.

What do you think you're doing?

You two can choose to return.

However, if you wish to see our boss,

you have to be screened.

Okay, Captain Luo.

Let me see the painting.

Raise your arm.

What is that? Take it out.

Don't tell me they found

Zhuang Wenjie's earpiece?

What are you doing?

-What are you doing? -Let him go!

Let him go!

Let him go!

I said you could screen me,

but I didn't say you could touch me.

Let go of me!

Dazhi, you're really taking your sweet time, huh?

He's been inside for quite some time, you know?

I was debugging it just now. I'm done.

Let me go!

Let him go.

Let's get straight to business.

This is a fruit peeler.

You like it?

You can have it.

Please.

Sorry,

but only Zhuang Wenjie can see our boss.

What do you mean by this?

Is this how you treat your guest?

I'm sorry about this.

Be careful.

I'll wait for you at the entrance.

You can return it to me now, right?

Judging from the situation,

it seemed like the guards

didn't detect our equipment.

If so,

why did the signal suddenly disappear?

Over here, it says that the equipment has been disconnected.

Let's forget about it.

Find a backup

and attach it to the vehicle.

Yes, sir.

Have a seat.

You're all grown up now.

Do you know me?

I've seen you once

when you were born.

Back then, I wanted your father

to give me an item.

It's a pity

that he passed away.

But,

you do take after your father.

I heard that you're studying law

at Qingcheng University.

I wonder what Zhuang would think

if he was still alive.

Let's get straight to business.

He's already dead.

Look at me.

It's easy to get melodramatic

when you're at my age.

Alright.

Let's get down to business.

I'll take the painting.

Name a price.

The price mustn't be too high

or too low.

If it's too high,

he'll think that you're insincere.

If it's too low,

he'll be suspicious of you.

You can answer him like this.

Five million yuan.

Your father and I are acquaintances.

I told you to come

because I wanted to catch up with you.

What's with that price?

Are you trying to take advantage

of your elder here?

But I'm here to talk about business.

Fine then.

I'll talk about business with you then.

Do you know what's the highest

estimated value for this painting

in the industry?

It's 1.5 million yuan.

What gives you the right

to demand that price from me?

The painting itself is worth 1.5 million yuan.

However, my craft

is worth 3.5 million yuan.

Your craft?

Who taught you that?

It doesn't matter.

I only want the painting.

Your craft

means nothing to me.

Take it or leave it.

One million yuan.

Three million yuan.

Not even a single cent less.

You're just a student.

Can you spend all that money?

That's my business.

You don't need to worry about that.

You're this greedy when you're this young?

Aren't you afraid

that I'll turn on you?
