Episode 26

You followed me all the way.

I'll mark your words.

But I want to advice you

not to embarrass yourself.

It's the right decision that the empire chooses you and me.

Don't choose the wrong side yourself.

Feng,

someone wants to see you.

Where are you going?

Go where I should go.

What's the place you should go?

This is your home.

This is just where I work.

Forget me, Feng.

Thank you, Feng

What's wrong?

Xue Ping,

the person you should trust the most is me.

You should know that.

I know.

Otherwise I wouldn't have come to you.

Then tell me,

What happened?

Why did you suddenly leave BIS?

Because at that place,

I see no hope.

I have no idea

what else I can do there.

I was trained by Tao Zongbo himself.

During the whole time,

he is the one I admire the most.

What I accepted

was the future he talked about.

The country was destroyed by the war.

For the country,

I have to give up the so-called emotion,

giving up my feelings and affections.

I always thought

what I did was great.

That's for the democracy.

That's for thousands of compatriots.

But I was wrong

I was totally wrong.

In the Party-State,

I always regard

those outrageous rumors

as slanderous talks and ignore them.

But now...

At this point...

My aspiring Party-State....

My aspiring Party-State....

Even a man like Blue Panther

could stand in the army

and be my comrade.

Isn't that funny?

Tao ZongBo has turned to the Japanese.

He asked me to rescue Yu Zhongping,

so that he can

use this valuable human life as a bargaining chip

and go to Shanghai to knock on the gate of No. 76.

No. 76 Jessefield Road in Shanghai is where the secret service of Wang's Regime located.

And then find himself a new future.

I can't let him succeed.

I shouldn't let him succeed.

Right, Feng?

Major.

Earlier this morning,

why were there so many cars from Government House?

I don't know.

I feel strange too.

Last night,

I got off work a little late.

General Sato

was still in the office at about nine.

Is there any emergency?

Why I heard nothing?

Even you, the most popular man

in the Military Government, don't know it.

How could we know?

We can only

act on the periphery.

There is no other way.

So on the third floor,

we planted a bomb

to make a chaos.

But when Liu and I followed a military guard

to Yu Zhongping's room,

he was already gone.

We concluded that

he must have been transferred again.

So we left.

Then...

Who killed

Yu Zhongping?

It is said to be Suke Kojima,

but I'm not sure.

Liu retreated first.

When I got to

the back door of the hotel,

Yu Zhongping was already dead.

The scene was pretty chaotic.

It's impossible to figure it out.

The Suke Kojima you were talking about.

Is he Miyamoto's assistant?

Yes, that's him.

I feel strange, too.

Yu Zhongping,

to the Japanese,

was such an important criminal.

Why would they kill him?

That doesn't make sense.

Brother-in-law, there's one more thing.

Xue Ping was also there.

Brother-in-law, the situation is...

Let me explain it to you.

Xue Ping,

she was there to save Yu Zhongping.

But then,

I showed up.

So her plan failed.

Tao Zongbo wanted her to control Yu Zhongping

so that he can trade him off

as intelligence.

Xue Ping,

her awareness is at a high level.

She didn't want to be a traitor like Tao Zongbo.

She was determined

to leave BIS.

Now she stays in Xinghe Society.

She stays Xinghe Society now?

Yes.

Don't worry, brother-in-law.

I never revealed

my real identity to her.

All right, please stay.

Bye.

I'm leaving, bye.

Sir,

here's the list of all the participants

of tomorrow's meeting.

Please take a look.

Sir,

it's such a big meeting.

You don't invite Ye Chong.

Is it appropriate?

Nothing is inappropriate.

The case of Yu Zhongping to me is not over yet.

I'm still suspecting him.

I need time to prove that

I'm right to doubt him.

Until then,

Ye Chong will be

in my blacklist.

But...

That's fine.

I was in charge of

the operation.

If anything happens,

I'll take the consequences.

Yes.

Men from Government House went to Military Government.

I had no news beforehand.

Besides, recently Miyamoto is very strange.

He entered the office early in the morning,

and did not come out till off work.

I am sure that

he and Sato must be

plotting something.

They just kept that from me.

Why did they

keep that from you?

Maybe they didn't believe

my explanations

on Yu Zhongping's case.

Do you think they're suspecting you?

Actually,

they never stopped

suspecting me.

This time, Miyamoto's attitude made this clearer.

Misaki Sato had become indifferent

towards Miyamoto's

wariness of me.

This means

Misaki Sato has permitted

Miyamoto's investigation on me.

What can we do?

You're in danger.

In danger.

In this dirty water,

danger exists

as common as breathing.

Ye Chong has long been used to it.

Since the danger is inescapable,

there's no need to worry about it.

The top priority now

is to figure out

what task did Misaki Sato

give to Miyamoto?

Besides,

Sato's heart tipped.

This will make

Ye Chong's following works harder.

Wait.

Major Ye,

have you prepared the materials for the meeting?

This meeting's materials

are prepared

by Kurano Miyamoto in person.

We don't know about that.

Okay, go ahead.

Yes.

Major Miyamoto.

Are your hands out of control?

Are you blind?

I'm sorry.

Let me clean it for you.

Stay away from me.

I have a new suit.

Do you need it?

No.

Let me clean it for you.

I said are your hands out of control?

- A mistake. - What are you arguing about?

The meeting is about to begin.

What are you arguing about here?

The meeting?

Is there any meeting today?

Don't you know?

About the guest list,

Major Ye's name is not on it.

Child's play.

Look at yourself now.

Hurry up, change your suit.

Ye Chong,

follow me to the conference room.

Yes.

In such a short time,

so many people have to be repatriated.

How can this be done?

Repatriating so many people

is really difficult.

Everyone,

a few days ago,

the Big Camp sent two staff officers

from the Headquarters of the General Staff

to Hong Kong.

With Governor Rensuke Isogai,

they discussed

the future war zones in southeast Asia together.

Our Military Government,

as the backbone

of their strategy,

also participated in the discussion.

The outcome of the discussion was that

Hong Kong

needs a big purge.

Miyamoto,

tell them the details.

The so-called big purge

is a big repatriation.

The Army side and the governor

hope the population of Hong Kong

be able to recover to

the state before the Greater East Asia War.

The head of the operation is

Miyamoto.

It is very difficult.

It's really hard

to put into practice.

If you go there,

all the problem can be solved.

Ye Chong.

General.

I'll take you to meet someone.

Our expert

has begun working.

There are five enemy's radio stations now.

The wave bands are

28.3 MHZ.

24.5 MHZ.

21.119 MHZ.

10.143 MHZ.

3.876 MHZ.

Based on the way they telegraphed,

the telegraph operators are three men and two women.

The monitoring is over.

Junko Kiyoizumi Hong Kong Military Government Telecom Department

Great.

So good, good.

General.

Very good. Very good.

Ye Chong,

let me introduce.

She is...

Hello, I'm Junko Kiyoizumi.

Nice to meet you.

Junko,

don't be sad.

I said I wanted to

go to Shanghai with you.

Father asked you.

Why didn't you agree?

Brother Chong, you don't want to see me for three years?

Junko,

I go to Shanghai to study

not for fun.

I can go there to study too.

I can go to Shanghai

with you to study telecoms.

I don't want you to be like me and Zhuang,

getting involved in politics.

Politics is

a very complicated matter.

You're a girl.

You should do

the things you enjoy.

The thing I like

is to be with you.

We've never been apart.

You want me to wait for you at home.

You're gonna miss

my coming-of-age ceremony.

You'll forget me.

How can I forget you?

You think too much.

You can speak to my father.

Let me go to Shanghai with you,

okay?

Junko, don't be wayward.

When I leave,

I hope you can see me off.

I'll be happy.

Brother Chong.

Brother Chong.

Why don't you let me go with you

to Shanghai together?

Listen to my words.

I guess he is the lengendary one

seinior general staff

from the telecoms department,

Right.

Ye Chong,

don't you want to introduce yourself?

General Sato,

the telecom department comes a new colleague.

Why don't you

tell me?

Not exactly a colleague.

She's the telecom specialist

assigned here by the Big Camp

General Staff HQ to help us.

In the future, the days

when we rule Hong Kong,

she'll be our telecom department's new leader.

Ye Chong,

you have too many things to manage.

To put all the burdens

of telecoms

on you alone,

that's too much pressure.

Now is fine.

You two can work together.

I hope you can open up

a different situation.

Yes.

Yes.

Leave, leave.

Ye Chong,

cooperate well with your sister.

I trust you.

Yes.

Junko.

Major Ye.

Brother,

seems you haven't forgotten me yet.

You haven't changed a bit.

Still so serious.

I didn't expect

to see you here.

Are you surprised?

Didn't you already know my choice?

Are you narrow-minded?

Is it because I took your place,

so you are jealous?

Junko, come on.

What's wrong?

So many people were here,

I gave you enough credit.

Do you know how long you haven't seen me?

You should take a good look at me.

What are you doing here in Hong Kong?

Isn't that obvious?

For you, of course.

Junko,

you know I don't like

the way you do.

I am also

a soldier of the Empire now.

We will be colleagues in the future.

It was my father's wish to let me come here.

My father seems to think

we should be together, too.

Fine,

we still have an old friend.

Take me to see him.

What's your name?

My name is Ye Chong.

Where's your mother?

My mother is at home.

Thank you, uncle.

Jiang Yue Ye Chong's mom

Mother, mother, mother.

You're a bad guy, let me go.

Mother.

Mother.

Let me go.

You're a bad guy.

I want my mother.

Mother.

Let me go.

1927, Tokyo

Hello, sir.

Here, sit down.

What's his name?

You can ask him.

What's your name?

My name is Ye Chong.

My name is Junko.

How old are you?

I'm five years old.

Five, you're younger than me.

What can we do after school?

Let's go to the movies or go shopping.

Let's see a movie.

Brother Chong.

Why are you back?

School is over,

so I come back.

Kaiko, I'm not going to the movies.

Go yourself.

You... Fine.

This is how you treat your friend?

What?

You don't come home very often.

Of course I'll stay with you.

Let's go to see the movies.

I don't want to go.

I have a lot of homework to do.

Stop for a minute.

You just came back. You need to relax.

Junko, slow down.

Be careful not to fall.

What's going on?

Why Junko is here?

I've been playing with her all morning.

Brother Chong, why you just come?

You're never late for work.

Something happened in the Military Government

I need to deal with.

So I'm a little late.

Okay,

the three of us

are finally reunited.

Don't argue.

Look at Brother Zhuang.

That's the best friend I grew up with.

He's not like you.

You always have so many excuses.

Junko,

didn't my adoptive father come with you?

Should he come with me?

Junko, in my stable,

there are some good horses.

Do you want to take a look?

Is this stud farm yours?

It's not mine,

but I manage it.

I have the final say.

If I like one of your horses,

can you give it to me?

Sure.

Whatever you like, it's yours.

Where will we go?

Wherever, it's up to you.

Come here.

What?

Come here.

Does this look good?

Feng,

we always use blades and guns.

I'm not used to this.

Let's go.

Xue Ping,

I think these things

all fit you.

Even if you're

someone who uses blades and guns.

You're a pretty girl,

right?

Think about this.

Those characters in the plays,

like Madame White Snake

and that Hu Sanniang.

They are all skilled in martial arts,

but they also wear jades and pearls,

right?

Don't make jokes.

I'm not a performer.

I know

you were in BIS,

so you couldn't stand out.

But now it's different,

you are detached from them,

standing in the light.

Look, the sun shines on you.

You can do whatever you want.

Stop suppressing yourself.

Try this one.

Does it smell good?

How much is it, boss?

Twenty yuan, sir.

Here.

Bye, sir.

Let's go.

The sudden arrival of Junko

makes Ye Chong think of the past.

Those unbearable memories

were the pain that

Ye Chong had been reluctant to touch for years.

But for now

Ye Chong's biggest concern is

that Junko suddenly showed up in Hong Kong.

Does it related to his being elbowed out

in the Military Government?

Or Ueno Kiyoizumi

arrange her to spy on him?

Plus the sudden

big repatriation action.

Ye Chong must clarify

the situation immediately.

Does the horse have a name?

Yes.

White Dragon Horse.

A character in Journey to the West.

Hey, what are you thinking?

Brother Zhuang gave me a white horse.

Junko, you really have a good taste.

That's a champion horse.

What do you mean?

You regret it so soon?

No.

It's yours, no turning back.

Junko,

you just arrived.

Zhuang gave you a horse.

I'll treat you with dinner tonight.

Good.

I'll start with the most expensive one.

Both of you,

send me back to get changed.

Let's go.

Go.

Xue Ping,

Shall we watch a movie later?

Okay.

Smells good.

Boss, a sweet one

and a salty one

-Okay. - How much is it together?

Fifty cents.

Okay, here you go.

Okay, thank you.

Xue Ping, look.

There's your favorite

osmanthus cake.

I'll buy you some

Okay.

Hold it.

Boss,

give me a bag.

Xue Ping.

Xue Ping.

What's wrong?

Here, smell it.

Smells so good,

right?

There's more snacks that you like.

Let's go.

- Okay. - Go.

Here's the list.

Tomorrow night, tell our comrades about it

together with the big repatriation.

What's on the list?

Democracy activists stranded in Hong Kong

and those arts people.

The Japanese might start with them.

When did Junko come?

I don't know.

She suddenly appeared again.

Appear and disappear mysteriously,

that fits her

quirky character.

What, did she scare you?

She didn't scare me.

I just think this is weird.

Why the Big Camp

chose Junko this time

to take over the telecom department?

Yeah.

Miyamoto is in charge of the big repatriation

and Junko is in charge of the telecom department.

Based on these,

your power in the Military Government

acutally has been suspended.

What does Sato want to do?

It all happened suddenly.

I don't know what that means

But I feel that

they start to avoid me

with everything.

They must be plotting something.

But the telecom department has been no improvement,

not only because it

lacks a real leader like Junko,

but also due to the lame equipment.

After all, telecom is very important.

So,

the Big Camp hiring such a talent

is reasonable.

But the little girl

is really stubborn.

In the end,

she not only picked

the same major as you did,

and came to Hong Kong on purpose.

Now, that's a lot waiting for you.

Although she appeared to

have grown a lot,

she hasn't changed at all.

Cold, proud

and supercilious Major Ye

will be trampled unexpectedly

by a little girl.

Stop being sarcastic.

She doesn't obey

flattery or coercion words.

I really don't know

what can I do with her.

Actually, you and I both know that

it's not hard to deal with her.

She likes you.

She could

give up painting because of you,

go to Germany to study telecoms,

and insisted on joining the army.

This means that

her heart

is already full of you.

Have you had enough?

Let me tell you.

Their dessert is really delicious.

Try it later.

I'm full, no appetite.

What's wrong?

Do you feel sick?

What does Ye Chong mean?

You saw the way

he treated me all night.

We haven't seen each other for years.

This is the first meal you treat me here to welcome me.

He didn't even smile to me once.

You know him.

He doesn't like to smile.

But I'm different.

He can't treat me like this.

I can smile at you.

How's that?

You are not him.

He knew

why I came to Hong Kong.

Excuse me,

miss, your pudding.

Please enjoy.

That's the specialty here.

Try it.

Brother Zhuang,

please tell me.

Does Ye Chong

already know another girl?

No.

You should answer me honestly.

What did you want him to answer you?

To answer me

if you're in a relationship.

I'm so busy every day,

no time for love.

I just asked casually.

The specialty.

It's so good.

Brother Chong,

later,

take me to your house.

You'd better go home and rest.

I have something to do later.

How about I drive you back?

I don't want to rest.

What do you want?

I want to visit your house.

I heard, in Hong Kong,

you have a particularly secluded courtyard.

I want to have tea in it

and chat with you.

You think you're still a little girl?

How can you so casually

go to another man's house?

Is that appropriate?

It's appropriate.

You're my brother.

Not even if I'm your brother.

Either you go home and rest now

or let Zhuang

take you out for a walk.

I have work at the Military Government.

I'm leaving.

Junko,

I'll show you around in Hong Kong.

I know a lot of

fun places.

I won't go anywhere.

Go home.

I can send you back.

No need.

What happened?

How did Ye Zhong like these?

All these makes Junko

feel confused.

She knows that Ye Chong

never raised flowers.

Why didn't you close the door?

Who are you?

I'm He Ying.

What are you doing here?
