[Ancient Detective]

[Episode 21]

Mr. Jian, I have to take the crystal.

I have to take your life too.

It's all over now.

Where's the crystal?

Where did he hide it?

He took the precaution, didn't he?

Kill him!

If I can't find the crystal...

I'll kill him after I've found the crystal.

Was it the Cool Poison?

I'm going to look for Mr. Ye.

Don't go.

Sit here and don't go anywhere.

It's okay.

I had a nightmare.

You should get some more sleep.

Chief Wang.

You're not the indecisive kind of person.

Give it to me.

Mr. Jian.

I'm counting on you.

Don't worry about me. Take care of yourself.

Miss Zhan, let's go!

Let's go.

Be careful.

Let's get ready also.

Okay.

Do you think the way Chief Wang looked at us seemed a bit weird just now?

No one can read his mind.

Let me tell you something, but don't get mad at me.

Tell me.

Well... I think he likes me.

Then you've to make a difficult choice between the two of us.

What to choose?

How can he compete with you?

He's Chief Wang.

You're Jian Bu Zhi.

You have a good taste.

Same to you.

Mr. Jian, do you think those days back in Liaodong were special?

Yes.

It was very cold.

I'm not talking about the weather.

We often went hunting together.

We spent a lot of time together.

Yes. I'm happy.

I think this is good.

Even if we're being chased, or uncertainty of life and death,

I'm good as long as I'm with you.

Me too.

Do you still remember when was the first time we were alone?

Of course.

It was back in Hanyue Villa.

You injured your leg while trying to save me.

I was extremely happy back then.

And the sunrise at Luo Village, do you remember?

And the sunrise at Luo Village, do you remember?

At that time,

I thought... even if it was our last sunrise, it was so worth it.

You've suffered so much because of me.

I'll only suffer when I'm not with you.

Promise me...

no matter what happens in the future,

don't act on your own.

We're in this together.

Why are you so serious all of a sudden?

Promise me first.

Okay. I promise you.

I won't act on my own.

I promise you too...

that even if we're separated, as long as you're alive,

I wouldn't die...

until we meet again.

Let's go.

Mr. Jian,

why are you so serious all of a sudden?

I'm still a little scared of you.

Miss Zhan,

while we're watching the sunrise,

did you kiss me secretly?

No.

I felt it.

No, I said no.

Miss Zhan.

This is the place where I saved him for the first time.

Face the Buddha.

Three steps to the left.

Two, three...

The mechanism is right in front of us.

It's a human hand.

This is it.

The token of Santong Security.

Initially, it was a precious sword.

But now... it has become the Third Chief's hand.

Why didn't they use the precious sword?

Because the Third Chief lost that precious sword.

He cut off his hand as a replacement.

I didn't expect that...

Chief Wang and Second Brother Fu fought to death for this dead hand.

That's the frightening aspect of power.

Let's go.

Mr. Bai Hu, Miss Liu,

we meet again.

How are you?

Thank you for helping us find the token.

Please follow us back to Santong Security.

We have something that you're looking for.

But...

we also have something you don't want to see.

Yan Mountain Sect's usual weapon, Thunderbolt.

Do you know about it?

Once you throw it, everything in the surrounding area will be destroyed.

If you throw it, you can't survive either.

I have my girl with me.

All of you are going to die with me, I've got no regrets.

Chief, what should we do now?

Don't move!

Miss Zhan.

I'm going to use it to create chaos.

Get out of here if you have the chance.

No way. I can't leave you behind.

Have you forgotten what you've promised me?

You need to escape and tell them what happened here.

Follow Chief Wang's arrangement later.

I know what to do.

One.

Two.

Three.

Chief, it's a medicine pill.

You guys, after her!

Stop chasing!

This is what you're after.

No need to chase.

Stop chasing! Take him with us.

Yes.

Hurry up!

Mr. Jian has been arrested.

I didn't expect to see you here.

But I'm quite happy.

I'm not happy at all.

They told me they've arrested Bai Hu from Yan Mountain Sect.

How could it be you?

I'm wanted by the Ten Killing Gate,

I've to change my name in order to travel in the martial world.

What are you doing in Liaodong?

It's a long story.

I've sealed your Gu Poison with Cold Ice Palm.

I've got it fixed for three months.

You should be at Heiwu Ridge now,

you shouldn't have come to this freezing place.

It's too cold here.

It will aggravate the Cold Poison in your body.

You'll die.

You're still laughing?

I won't be able to save you then.

I'd have caused you harm instead.

Actually, you've extended my lifespan already.

After you left, Second Master Li was killed.

Only a few of them survived the Battle of Shenji Valley.

Handy Tang,

Bai Cao Zhe,

they were all killed.

I can only come to see Chief Wang.

So...

you were saying... you've been with Chief Wang all the time, right?

Since you've asked him about the truth, why are you still here?

If it goes well... do I still need to be here?

What's wrong?

Chief Wang, that sneaky old geezer!

He'd only tell me after I've done him a favor.

I'm doing him a favor now.

I ended up being tied up here.

You shouldn't get yourself involved.

Beggars' Sect has made a deal with Second Brother Fu.

We are planning to fight Chief Wang together.

You're my enemy now.

They know you're good at interrogation,

so they want you to interrogate me?

After we bid each other farewell at Hanyue Villa,

this is how we meet again?

The martial world is cruel.

I was told that your way of interrogation...

will make people feel miserable.

So, leisure chat is your way of interrogation?

Second Master,

Mr. Bai Hu here... is my friend.

I, Hu Ba Yue, won't betray my friends.

What do you want then?

Take me down...

then get him out of here?

Of course not.

By all means, I'm a leader of the Beggars' Sect,

I can assist you to take down Santong Security... and fight against Chief Wang.

We will have better lives in the north.

Chief Wang is your rival,

he's our enemy as well.

Okay.

I like to work with a man of principles.

But...

I might put you in a difficult situation.

It's not difficult.

He's my friend.

You can't kill him. Likewise, I'm keen to...

help you take down Santong Security.

Don't worry, Mr. Hu.

I won't kill him.

He might be useful to us.

You may leave now.

Mr. Bai Hu,

take care.

Are the carriages and clothes... ready?

Yes. I'm sure nothing could go wrong.

It's just... I'm worried about Jian.

We'll stick to the plan.

Second Brother Fu is a cautious person.

I'm sure he'll carry the token with him.

After we capture him, we'll get the token.

We can save Jian after that.

Okay.

Let's depart.

Ming Yue, after saving Jian, I'll come back to see you.

Even if you're not Hu Ba Yue's friend, I won't make things difficult for you.

With your current condition,

after some time, I think you will die here.

You don't have to frighten me.

I won't tell you where Chief Wang is.

Fine.

But...

why do I need to know Chief Wang's whereabouts?

Very soon, Chief Wang will come to us.

What do you mean?

Actually, you're not planning to leave Liaodong.

You want to get the token and go back to Santong Security.

You want to take down the chief, and take me down, right?

But we don't have the strength to fight against you.

So, you plan to sneak an attack?

You've colluded with Yujiabao's caravan.

Today, Chief Wang and your friends...

will disguise as the staffs of the caravan... to infiltrate Santong Security.

Moreover, Chief Wang is very familiar with the terrain of Santong Security,

you can avoid the guards to hit the center.

Chief Wang doesn't have any martial arts now.

But...

you have a brother who knows how to use flying daggers, right?

His flying daggers can curve around.

There's another one with a big sword, and a female assassin who uses an umbrella.

And... Zhang Da Dan with an axe.

When four of them attack together,

they probably have a chance at winning.

So, why do I need to know Chief Wang's whereabouts?

He will come to me, right?

No one got left behind,

am I right?

We have a mole among us.

You're right.

I know every step of your plan.

Are you thinking to yourself...

that this is bad, if I tell them now,

I captured Chief Wang, but he refused to hand over the token.

Without the token, Santong Security will become stable.

Therefore, I can only send a spy to let him hand over the token to me.

Then, I'd sort things out from there.

You are sneaky.

Even so,

as long as Chief Wang is still alive, I won't have a good sleep.

This is great.

The token... and Chief Wang.

Killing two birds with one stone.

Thank you... for your brilliant plan,

Santong Security is going to have a new chief.

You may have to witness this moment with me.

What are you doing?

We're unloading the goods.

Are you new here? Move the cart over there.

Allow us.

Okay.

All of you are here.

Are we missing out a guest?

Eldest Brother, how are you?

The crystal is gone.

Where did he hide it?

That Jian Bu Zhi...

Zhang Da Dan... why are you doing this?

Why?

Eldest Brother trusts me because he wants me to obey him like a dog.

Second Brother treats me like a human being.

He told me that if I get this done,

he will make Dayi Security...

as one of the three branches of Santong Security in Zhongyuan.

I'll be the chief.

All the brothers from Dayi Security won't be bullied anymore.

They'll have a better living.

You jerk!

I'm a bit unreasonable.

I'm not as thoughtful as Second Brother Fu.

You work hard for him,

I believe his promises are true.

I...

This is the difference between you and me.

For everything you do, you only care about yourself.

You're domineering.

You're highly skilled in martial arts but you used it to bully people.

I'm different.

I know what everyone's concern.

You're right.

There is humanity besides the rules.

I didn't know it before.

In order to set rules for Santong Security, I was being cold-hearted.

It's too late to realise it now.

Next... I'm taking my brothers to Zhongyuan with me.

Everyone is going to have a good life.

Santong Security... will be famous.

Second Brother Fu, you can't do this.

I admit that I'm stubborn.

But entering Zhongyuan...

you're seriously wrong.

What's wrong with that?

Tell me.

You gave it a deep thought but you have no foresight.

It involves a lot of stakes and relations to get into Zhongyuan.

If you insist on getting benefits from there,

Santong Security will crash for sure.

A lot of big names and sects were destroyed because of this.

You've never been a chief, you're unclear about the situation.

Your quick-wittedness will make you suffer a great loss.

Who's the one unclear about the situation?

I'm the chief now.

You're a prisoner.

I even got the token.

The Twelve Death Guards are mine.

Even the Beggars' Sect... is helping me now.

Those from other branches will be here soon.

On my command,

Santong Security...

will belong to the Fu family.

Even if you're here,

who would recognise you?

You don't have martial arts and no alliances, what else can you do?

You do have the means.

Even my well-trained Twelve Death Guards...

and the powerful Beggars' Sect are all on your side.

I admire you for this.

But today, you may not get what you want.

Because you've underestimated one of our member's abilities.

Who?

Me.

You?

Do you really think that we're here today...

because we've fallen for your trap?

What do you mean?

Stop talking to him, Chief Wang.

Attack.

Mr Ye.

Why are you hurt?

It's nothing serious.

How much more are you hiding from me?

What's with Chief Wang's martial arts skills?

Be careful.

I'm asking you a question.

I'll tell you everything later.

Chief Wang is here.

Kneel down!

Eldest Brother!

Eldest Brother!

- Zhang Da Dan. - Yes.

Tie him up!

Zhao Wo Huan, don't you want to fight him?

Who wants to fight with him?

I never said that.

Mr. Hu, you might be disappointed.

The person you want to work with isn't the chief anymore.

Those are Santong Security's affairs.

It's not good for us to get involved.

Goodbye.

Mr. Hu, please stop.

I think the cooperation is a good idea.

After I've cleaned up the mess, I'll talk to you in detail.

From now on, Santong Security will need help from Beggars' Sect.

What do you think?

Chief Wang is so open-minded.

Likewise.

When did he regain his power?

I really don't know.

Mr. Jian.

Everything is going so well... because you've good prediction.

Not at all.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Luckily, you're managed to regain your martial arts skills.

Mr. Jian?

Aren't you Bai Hu from Yan Mountain Sect?

When did he regain his martial arts skills?

Why didn't we know about it?

Can you tell them now?

Actually... not long after we met,

Chief Wang has slowly regained his power.

But why...

In order to make sure this plan would succeed,

only three people knew about it.

Mr Ye, me... and Chief Wang.

At that time, I used my inner power...

to dissolve the Power Dissipation Medicine inside Chief Wang's body.

Then I calculated his recovery time.

All right.

Can he regain his power?

I learned some needle techniques from the Wicked Woman.

It can help him recover half of his power.

But, it might exhaust some strength.

Why did you send them away?

Fewer people know about it the better.

If you're not a physician, I'd hide it from you too.

But why?

I won't tell you for now.

It's better for you... to know about it later.

Because not everyone is good at acting.

As you wish.

I'll have fewer things to worry about.

And, from today onwards...

if anyone asks you about Chief Wang's power regain progress,

just answer them with these four words:

"long way to go".

That's easy. I like simple things.

I followed Mr. Jian's order...

by hiding the truth about Chief Wang's condition.

How much power do you need to defeat Second Brother Fu?

At least half of my power.

Mr Ye, how long will that take?

Long way to go.

I'm afraid... it would take about three to four months.

I'm tired of lying.

Bravo, Mr. Ye.

You managed to hide it.

Even I was fooled.

Keeping a secret is so hard.

There's no need to burden others.

But I'm still angry.

Miss Zhan, are you angry?

As long as Mr. Jian is happy, I don't mind.

Jian, when did you find out he was the mole?

The second day of our meeting.

He asked a question that he shouldn't have asked.

The only way to find the token is to find me.

Eldest Brother, where did you hide the token?

Don't worry. It's at a place where no one can ever find it.

It seemed like a normal question, but it raised my suspicion.

If he's really loyal, he should care about...

Chief Wang's safety the most.

Only Second Brother Fu's man would desperately want to know...

where the token was hidden.

I see.

Once we found something suspicious, we need to investigate it.

Because of this... I purposely paired you up with Zhao Wo Huan...

to perform the action during the day.

We need to scout the enemy before we depart.

Zhang Da Dan, Zhao Wo Huan,

I'll leave the investigation to the both of you.

- Okay. - No problem.

You must think that... he's the least cautious person among us.

But the only mission I gave him...

was to observe you.

Jian asked me to observe you.

I knew something was wrong.

To gather information, you hit up a conversation with the locals.

But those locals... kept staring at me.

It's obvious that they're not locals.

They were spies sent by Second Brother Fu to meet up with you.

You're the mole.

To defeat Santong Security, we've to take down the chief.

You have two conditions, the first one is Chief Wang,

and second, it's you.

Only you could convince Second Brother Fu that...

his opponent is still powerless,

and everything was completely under his control.

But Second Brother Fu is a cautious person.

In order to make him fully trust his own judgment,

I have to make that effort... to come here for a trip.

I'll get the token tomorrow.

I may get caught, you sneak into Santong Security, everything would go smoothly.

Second Brother Fu will let you in.

Don't get into trouble because of me.

Protect Miss Zhan.

You're doing this for me,

isn't it too risky?

I don't have much time.

This is the only fastest way.

Mr. Jian, your medicine is ready.

Jian Bu Zhi...

you're a desperate man.

So, Mr. Jian took the token and let you catch him on purpose.

Do you think it can fool us?

You were trying to set a trap for us,

but you've played into our hands.

Your martial arts skills are better than me.

You've always overpowered me.

I've waited for ten years...

to finally have a chance.

I planned it thoroughly,

but I didn't expect a dying man has come to Liaodong.

Eldest Brother,

I have another wish.

Tell me.

To those who ruined me...

I must let them pay the price.

Zhao...

is your neck okay?

It's fine.

This kind of person... I knew what he's up to.

You're so agile.

When he jumped at me, I didn't manage to respond.

You have to thank Miss Zhan for this.

If she hadn't take the first hit for you,

I couldn't deliver second hit for you in time.

Are you really okay?

I heard a cracking sound just now.

What's so strange about it?

I can do it now.

How is it? Your physical strength is incredible.

Mr. Jian, we've done all three things that Chief Wang asked us to do.

Yes. Let's get into business.

Okay.

Chief Wang, you should keep your promise.

Chief Wang...

Chief Wang...

Chief Wang...

Chief Wang...

Chief Wang... is dead.

His neck was sliced through by a very thin weapon.

It could be a sword.

The murderer must've taken the opportunity...

when Second Brother Fu shone The Sun Moon and Star into our eyes...

to kill him.

Who killed him?

Who killed him?

Who killed him?

Who killed him?

Jian.

Tell me. How many tricks are there?

I just wanted to kill Mr. Jian,

I've never thought of killing Chief Wang.

Zhang Da Dan!

- No, it wasn't me. - They didn't do it, Zhao.

I should have known.

Two dogs strive for a bone,

the third runs away with it.

The murderer has targeted Chief Wang since the very beginning.

If I could pay more attention...

and find out the murderer sooner,

he wouldn't have to die.

When we came in, our master was already dead.

The white shadow... has also vanished.

So, that was how it happened.

All the puzzles have been solved.

Who did it?

The man in white...

You mean the one who appeared at Hanyue Villa and Yan Mountain Sect?

He's with us now.

He killed Second Master Li at Hanyue Villa...

and killed Chief Wang just now.

The murderer who keeps... stopping me from seeking the truth for that incident eight years ago...

is you.
