Episode 20

Is there any movement around?

No.

Only in this area.

Change all these into plainclothes.

Withdraw the military police.

You stay here and watch closely.

If somebody shows up

to check this blackboard,

catch all of them.

Only when we find the right person,

can we know

what the lottery information

means.

Yes.

Master,

Why don't you ask President Jin about it?

Maybe the one she saved

is really connected to

our Party.

Ye Chong is nearby,

so there must be something.

Not necessary.

Jin Xiang,

confounds right and wrong,

and Ye Chong knows that.

If I intervene now,

the Japanese will suspect me.

So we just wait?

But she...

Wait.

What?

Don't you know Jin Xiang?

She can't keep a secret overnight.

Let's wait for her to come to us.

I see. I see.

Master,

don't drink too much.

It's getting late,

have a rest early.

I can't sleep without drinking.

Mr. Sun,

Sister Xiang said,

you couldn't go out.

We do this to protect you,

but not to imprison you.

I know.

You saved my life,

and I can only choose to trust you.

Now that you trust us,

please settle down.

I will stay here.

But today,

I must go out for a while.

Manager,

is the new tea here?

Yeah, it's here.

Which type would you like?

Do you have the superior Mao Feng?

Yes, we do.

Please go and pick.

Ok.

Come in please.

Qing Gang members saved you?

I don't know their intention yet.

But they

guess out my identity.

Where do you live now?

The place I live is safe for the time being.

But,

I still need to find ways to get out.

I come to inform you that

the Japanese's action this time,

is targeting us.

The liaison office here

must be evacuated.

We have destroyed those that should be destroyed.

There was someone, yesterday,

came to tell me.

Who?

He?

Manager,

how booming your business is!

Yeah,

all are regular customers.

Waiter.

Coming.

Ok, enough.

Please stay.

The tea-leaves

are so few.

It's alright.

I should see you off.

Just now, I was careless

and sprinkled a little.

You can't do that again.

Sorry.

You can leave.

You are welcome.

Boss, give me a piece of newspaper.

Ok.

I just bought this pair of shoes.

Sorry. Sorry.

Really bad luck.

There are all kinds of people in the world.

Shit.

Boss.

Please come with us.

Who are you?

Who should I go with you?

Stop talking. Come on.

Officer,

we find different numbers

near every newsstand.

Newspapers!

Newspapers!

The newest feeds!

Newspapers!

Sir, would you like one?

Boss,

give me one.

Here you are.

Newspapers!

Today's newspapers!

Newspapers! Newspapers!

I heard there is something new.

You are better-informed than me.

Brother.

Sister.

Why do you come back?

Is it under siege outside?

No. I have left something at home,

and I come back for that.

Yeah, you?

I'm going to buy some vegetables.

Ok, go on with your business.

Bye.

Bye.

Come on,

good baby.

Come,

be good.

Come on, Gou Dan,

come to dad.

Dad feeds you.

Come here.

All right.

Good.

Ok.

I'm going out to work.

Ok.

Bye.

The man is gone.

We don't know where the man is.

Gou Dan is so good.

Come to mom.

Come on,

give mom a kiss.

Gou Dan is so good.

The woman is gone too.

Search!

Ye Chong looks at the numbers on the lottery.

They prove his own guessing that

comrades are organizing to retreat.

Do you discover some news?

I don't care about current affairs.

I'm just interested in tidbits.

If Miyamoto wants to read,

here, read this.

Those people in front, go there!

Yes.

This morning, guys of Liu

found a white ribbon

at the newsstand, at the back of

Jiang's Tea House.

Jiang's Tea House?

I remember Comrade HK

once said to me

there was one of

our old liaison offices.

But we have disused it.

Take away the newspaper.

And the liaison

is also hibernating.

Who is the one that gives us warning all of a sudden?

The layout information

was marked out

on the blackboard in the lane

behind the tea house.

The Japanese

have monitored there closely.

All those who look at the blackboard

would be arrested.

To publish a missing-person notice,

one must provide

accurate layout information.

I have been there.

But today the press has closed.

We need to wait till tomorrow morning.

Who would it be?

You think HK

did that?

I see.

Officer,

within our controlled area,

several people disappeared suddenly.

They are our top suspects.

At usual times,

under our close watch,

they behave normal.

But,

but they get certain message,

and find we monitor them, right?

They behaved like usual.

They left home,

but they all never come back.

Officer,

is it relevant to those numbers?

Of course.

What about those we caught today?

Got anything from them?

We caught a lot,

but most of them,

couldn't bear the severe trial

punishment and all died.

They were all ordinary citizens,

and they provided nothing useful.

Hello, what would you like to order?

What do you have here?

Wonton and steamed dumplings.

What would you like?

Steamed dumplings, please.

0.5 yuan.

Is it fresh?

Don't worry. It is very fresh.

You see it yourself.

Hey man, lend me a light.

Are you crazy? Get it somewhere else.

Master,

Dongjiang Column Division brought information

that HK disappeared.

It must be him.

Because only he

can communicate with the hibernators.

Today, the Japanese

stopped surveillance at several places.

I heard they lost some targets.

Seems that his move is effective.

But,

the Japanese increased manpower

where the passwords

were discovered.

They are waiting to catch.

We can't let him go on doing this anymore.

He will go on.

He took actions

before discussing with you.

That's too dangerous.

He must have made plans

to take adventure.

Therefore, we must find him.

Have you been to the press?

Yes, but no clue there.

I have asked Liu

to increase manpower.

Once they find HK, they will try their best to stop him.

Is there any news from

Xinghe Club?

No.

This time, President Jin

didn't blow her cool.

What HK did this time is too risky.

I must report to the Party.

Wei, please prepare for me.

Ok.

Chi Cheng knows that

HK has gone on the same path

as his brother did.

It is a faith

shared through flesh and blood.

Nobody can prevent them from sacrificing.

You follow me all day long.

You must be tired.

I come to pick you up.

It's not safe at night.

I still have things to do.

It doesn't matter. I can wait.

Did President Jin ask you to spy on me?

Mr. Sun,

the word of "spy"

might not be right.

I just hope I didn't

get a shot in vain here.

Tang Feng,

who get a shot?

What are the odds?

Major Ye,

nobody got a shot, you heard it wrong.

I mean at night,

it's not safe,

and it's easy to get a shot.

Who it this?

He is my cousin.

Sun Zhao, a teacher.

You two, so late at night...

That's because, Major Ye,

actually,

I accompanied my cousin

to buy some tea.

Who knows after that

he suddenly felt hungry.

He has to go to Jun Xing Lou.

Then I went there with him,

and after that he wanted a walk to digest the food.

So I said to him,

it's not safe at night,

and it's easy to get shots.

So that's what you heard.

Your cousin,

doesn't like to talk.

I didn't get a chance to talk.

My cousin is quite talkative.

My name is Sun Zhao. Nice to meet you.

Your cousin,

he really talks to much today.

But some of what he said

is right.

Now it's not safe,

you had better not go out at night.

You hear that?

You don't listen to what I said.

This is

Major Ye of Japanese Military Government.

You should believe what he said.

Major Ye,

your Chinese is so good.

Mr. Sun,

where did you buy the tea?

I really want to ask for advice.

I also love tea.

But I'm not familiar with the tea market.

I can't find the tea I like.

Jiang's Tea House

has some good new tea.

In fact, I don't like drinking tea.

I bought this for President Jin.

I don't come often.

I should show my appreciations.

Cousin, why didn't you say it earlier?

President Jin doesn't like drinking tea.

How about this?

Just now Major Ye said

he likes tea,

so we can give it to him.

Since you are Feng's friend,

please accept this.

Am I Feng's friend?

Yeah.

Of course.

This tea...

I'll leave it to you.

When there is a chance,

I hope I can pay a visit and have a taste.

Then,

I hope Feng can do me the favour.

It's late today.

You two should go back

before the siege.

Please.

Jin Xiang never drinks tea, but only drinks wine.

Ye Chong knows.

Who is this cousin

with unknown origin?

Ye Chong didn't care at the beginning.

But Tang Feng covered

with loopholes everywhere.

That made Ye Chong feel

he must have some stories.

Stand up!

Is there any progress?

The publicity we discovered before,

were all Moss-coded telegrams.

But this time,

it's only lottery information.

Is there any relation between these numbers?

We haven't found any yet.

Perhaps it's time,

perhaps it's coordinate,

but we are not sure.

Now what I can make sure is

these numbers

must have a warning function.

It told those anti-Japanese people

the message to retreat.

They decided to take action

at such a critical moment.

It seems that your Thunder Operation

is quite effective.

Really.

Are these

all posted up with posters?

No.

This is

drawn by Meng Hao while

I was interrogating him.

However,

it coincided with

the places where we found the posters.

I feel in this operation,

our enemy acted alone.

Really?

According to the time,

these points are regarded as signs.

If their act

was well-organized,

they could have

take a bigger risk

and send out the message.

That would make us overwhelmed.

But this person,

I can feel clearly he was pretty weak.

He was just using simple tricks,

to divert our attention.

Like a guerrilla.

But he would not appear at these points

without reasons.

So,

there must be some connections within.

Tell Ye Chong to come over.

He must be in danger.

I have been to the places

he usually stays,

and I didn't find him.

Since Professor Yu started lectures,

he never showed up again.

He must be in danger.

He Ying,

is he caught by the Japanese?

Yes, yes, yes.

He must be caught by Japanese.

What should we do? He Ying.

Mei Fang, don't worry.

Maybe,

he went home with something to do,

or stayed at Professor Yu's.

Tomorrow, I will go to ask

if he's at Professor Yu's.

His home was in Pu Tai.

No port in Hong Kong is open right now.

He wouldn't go home.

Mei Fang, don't wor...

Wait,

I have a friend

who is working for the Japanese.

I will go and ask for you.

Thank you. He Ying.

Thank you.

Don't worry.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, I will go to ask for you.

These are all the addresses

where we found passwords on the blackboard.

We spent

a lot of time and energy.

We haven't found any clue.

But,

we find two common characteristics.

The first is

lottery information.

The second one is

the newsstand.

Around each lottery information,

there is a newsstand.

Suke Kojima examined

the recent newspaper sales.

The biggest change is in

Hong Kong Daily.

I think the lottery information

aims to remind certain underground party members

and tell them

to read Hong Kong Daily.

They will find the information

on the business section.

Newspapers! Newspapers!

The newest newspapers!

Come to read! Newspapers!

Sir, would you like one?

Ok.

Please.

Newspapers! Newspapers!

Boss, give me one.

I guess the person who delivers information

will go to Hong Kong Daily again.

We can wait there.

Your analysis is reasonable.

Ok,

you and Ye Chong go there at once.

Miyamoto really have done

intelligence work for many years.

His conclusion

probably leads to

serious consequence.

But facing the sudden action,

Ye Chong has no time to prepare.

Major Ye,

it's time to get off.

Stay. Don't move.

Stay. Don't move.

Stay.

Stay.

Get out of the way.

Those for the business section stay.

The others can leave.

Don't worry.

We just want to know

recently who

frequently pay for the business section.

To be more exact,

who frequently publishes advertisement

and missing-person notices?

No one speaks?

I don't want this person,

to be caught by me.

I represent Hong Kong Military Government

to investigate anti-Japanese movement.

Please cooperate.

I don't want this place

to be bloodshed.

It's me.

I'm responsible for that.

Fine.

Come over.

What's your name?

Du Cong.

Were there many people here to publish

ads and missing-person notice yesterday?

In the whole page,

there will be space for twenty at most.

If someone frequently comes to you,

I believe ,

you must remember him, right?

I don't remember.

Hello?

Is it Hong Kong Daily?

Yes.

I want to speak to Du Cong, Editor Du.

Ok, please hold.

Hello,

Editor Du,

we've said to publish

the missing-person notices today, right?

I'll be there at once.

Do you have time?

Ok.

This sudden action,

is more like a test to me

from the Japanese side.

Miyamoto has set up a vast network.

He is warning us.

Maybe the white handkerchief is the only way

to warn our comrades.

You,

come over.

Major Ye.

What the camouflage needs most is the detail.

Yes.

Unexpectedly, Major Ye,

has such a good way to educate.

I have to congratulate Miyamoto in advance.

The trap you set up this time

must make the arrest so easy.

That's due to

Major Ye's active cooperation.

It's the shared credit of the whole Military Government.

I don't dare to enjoy the success by myself.

But Miyamoto,

you contribute most this time.

We all know it.

Let's go.

I'll smoke outside.

To relax.

Master,

the press is controlled by the Japanese.

Where is HK?

Maybe on the way to the press.

What to do?

Sure.

Hello, Sir.

What can I do for you?

I'm here to meet Editor Du.

I have an appointment.

Do you want to meet Editor Du?

You're here for the missing-person notice, right?

Yes.

Editor Du went out for a temporary work.

He have told me

he have arranged other people to help you.

You can go there directly.

Thank you.

Sir,

turn right, the last room.

How could it be him?

Why is him?

Ye Chong, suddenly,

can't accept the fact.

Huang Zihua, at sight of Ye Chong,

kept his eyes

calm at the moment.

That means he have predicted

this earlier.

He couldn't explain why Huang Zihua

would be here.

He is a Communist.

He is Ye Chong's comrade.

What about Chi Cheng?

What about Xinghe Club?

All of these,

at that moment,

become a mystery.

Master,

don't be impulsive.

You can do nothing about it.

I can't bear to watch

my comrade get caught.
