Here's my copy of Xu's testimony.

Take a look.

Hey.

John's here?

How's it going?

Qiao Xiang Wan's secretary, Xu Kan La, has surrendered himself.

Xu?

Yes.

He said he would tell us everything,

including the origin of the virus.

Dr Jones collaborated with him on it.

They wanted to make money out of it.

Now that we have Xu's testimony,

we can straightaway open the mine for investigation.

Wait a minute.

Am I the only one who finds it strange?

We're talking about Xu.

He's just a helper.

Do you think he could pull up such a big thing?

If it's not Xu,

then it's Qiao Xiang Wan.

If it's not Qiao Xiang Wan, then it's Kelly.

Whom would you prefer?

No.

You can't put it that way.

So, do you believe what he said?

No matter what,

since we've completed the procedures,

let's open the mine first.

Let's go.

Why are you here again?

This is a private mine.

Open the door.

Are you trying to disrupt public service?

You, take the tools and come with me.

You're awake.

Here, sit up for a while.

Does it hurt still?

No.

Xiao Cong.

Yesterday,

I thought I'd get well in no time.

But now,

I don't think I'll ever get up again.

Well,

am I going to die soon?

Touch wood!

Nonsense.

Yanluo Wang would never accept a mischievous princess like you.

Indeed.

I still have many things to do.

I have yet to become a good doctor.

I haven't put on a wedding gown.

In the bedroom,

there's a wedding photo of my parents, in which my mom is wearing a wedding gown.

Mom looks so beautiful in it.

But it's such a shame. She passed away long ago.

So, ever since I was young, I've been wanting to

put on a wedding gown for photographs.

I'll look like Mom for sure.

Besides, Brother said

I looked beautiful because I took after Mom.

He said he's not good-looking

because he didn't look like Mom

or Dad.

Actually...

I learned from Brother Dan...

I learned from Brother Dan that Mr Qiao...

Mr Qiao is a good brother.

He loves you very much.

I know.

I'm aware everyone is kind to me.

But...

But the one who I like

isn't in love with me.

I'll beat him up for you.

Xiao Cong.

Am I being too greedy?

What are you saying?

Who wouldn't want

to be liked by their crush?

That's why...

That's why I really don't want to die now.

I really don't want to die.

I really don't want to die.

Dr Qiao.

Trust me.

You won't die.

Sir!

Yes?

Two dead children are found in the old mine.

Their lower limbs are shrunk and deformed.

We asked the Health Department commissioners

and Leader Huo from Friendship Hospital to take a look.

They suspect those are the bodies of child polio patients.

Besides,

the kids were from the old village.

-The old village? -Yes.

Was it P?

It's not P.

We asked the chief to take a look.

He said both of the kids

secretly went down the hill with P few months before the quake.

They got high fever when they're back.

They had trouble breathing and were bedridden. They were gibbering.

All the villagers said they're being possessed.

There's no modern medicine in the village.

Their condition became very serious. And they passed away not long after.

The villagers were very scared.

They dared not keep the bodies in the village,

or bury them in the mountain forest.

They're afraid that'd upset the mountain god.

That's why they moved the bodies to the mine that's nearest to the forest.

You said these two kids went down the hill and contracted polio.

When they're back to the village, they passed away from the illness.

They're disposed in the mine.

And now their bodies are found in it.

That's right.

Who ordered to have the mine sealed?

It's been sealed for years.

The earthquake broke it open.

After Xiao Liu claimed to have seen a ghost there,

Mr Qiao asked Xiao Xu to hire someone and have it sealed.

Did they bury the bodies before or after the quake?

Judging from the current situation,

it should be about two to three months before the quake.

That's when they buried the bodies.

Two to three months before the quake?

That's the time when the children in Linshui Village contracted polio.

That's right. They're probably from the same group of children.

Linshui Village information.

Open it up.

But Qiao Xiang Wan said he knew nothing about the mine.

He's worried that the workers wouldn't do their job well

because it's rumoured that Xiao Liu saw a ghost in there.

That's why he asked Xu to have the mine sealed.

That's right.

Xu said it's all his doing.

Dr Jones told him about the virus leak. That person died from it.

They buried the bodies in the mine to cover it up.

Wait.

Then why didn't they dispose the bodies elsewhere?

He said people would find out

if he were to move the bodies somewhere else.

That burying them in the mine was the safest way

because this mine was a private property.

Once they're buried,

no one wouldn't find out about it.

He also said that

no mine workers were involved in the sealing of the mine.

He hired others to do it.

It's because he didn't want anyone to find out about it.

Xu seems to be the key suspect here.

And everything happened to him alone.

Doesn't it feel deliberate?

Hey!

You said you did all those things behind our backs.

Director Li.

Indeed.

Explain yourself, then.

Why did you do so?

Back then,

I had nothing. And Mr Qiao gave me everything.

But no matter how hard I tried,

I remained an unremarkable nobody.

The Qiao family is well-known here.

But the mine and the pier are already on the wane.

So I found myself a new boss.

Was that wrong?

Mr Jones

was ambitious and capable.

And he would make a man out of me.

You once said that

you're absolutely loyal to Mr Qiao and Ms Liang.

Didn't you?

No matter how loyal I was, I couldn't resist

the temptation of a promising future.

Mr Qiao was

my first chance to change my life.

And Dr Jones was the second chance

to change my destiny.

I'm not like you guys.

You're either born into a good family, or outstanding in your own right.

I could only rely on chance.

Only by relying on Dr Jones

could I taste success.

You

could take me as a dodder that attaches itself to a big tree.

Only by relying on the big tree

could I climb to a higher ground.

You said you refused to be a nobody.

That you'd betray anyone whenever you had a chance.

Because you wanted to climb to higher ground.

Then why did you surrender yourself?

Because I knew Mr Qiao would find out about everything

after Dr Jones ran away.

And Mr Qiao wouldn't let me get away with it for sure.

Instead of letting him come at me,

I decided to just admit it.

You are lying.

-I'm telling the truth. -Calm down, Director Li.

Also, you have no evidence proving that I'm lying!

Xiao Cong.

Were you looking for me?

Dr Liao.

Have you ever courted a girl?

Did you know how to court a girl successfully?

First of all, you need to figure out where she goes.

Then, you create a chance encounter there.

Next,

give her some romantic things.

For example, a flower crown and leaves and the like.

And recite a line or two from some love poem.

To make her feel that you're different.

When you catch her attention,

leave at once.

It's to make her feel that you're neither friendly nor aloof.

To make her ponder

whether you're interested in her or not.

That way, she will become interested in you.

After arousing her desire to win you,

you need to go missing for a day or two.

When she takes initiative and asks about your whereabouts,

you just carry on with the conversation.

That way,

you can get on with the next stage.

Is that

how you chased girls?

I came out with this technique based on many people's experiences.

But it's such a shame.

I never had the chance to put it into use.

Because girls chased me.

And the only girl that I wanted to chase

is Dr Qiao.

But I already failed

even before I started it.

And it's not because I'm lack of experience

or not skillful enough.

It's because Dr Qiao isn't interested in me at all.

So a real relationship

is not about experience or skill.

What matters most is they like one another.

Just like how Dr Qiao likes you.

Dr Liao.

That girl who is so into you. She's now bedridden.

She's afraid she'll never get up again.

But what have you done?

You visited her for a few times without her knowing.

And you left before she woke up.

Dr Liao.

You should go ahead and court her.

If you have no idea how to do it, I can help you.

But you need to tell her what's in your heart.

Say it out loud. Tell her that you like her.

Don't make yourself regret.

Thank you, Xiao Cong.

You've truly grown up.

Xiao Cong.

How long have I been sleeping?

Not that long.

Why...

Why are you here?

All this time,

I've actually come and visit you

whenever I was free.

But you're always asleep.

And I didn't want to wake you up.

In fact, I came

to gift this to you.

Does it look very ugly?

I'm sorry.

I carved it too hastily.

Cindy.

You like to walk

in the backyard during lunch break, don't you?

I noticed that you like the flowers there very much.

I thought of getting a bouquet for you.

But it's not allowed in here.

That's why I carved one for you.

This looks beautiful, too.

But

how did you know I always go there for a walk?

Actually, when you were there for a walk,

I was there all the time.

But I was too shy to say hello.

I always thought of doing so next time.

But only now do I realise that

there is no next time

or later.

Therefore, you must get well soon.

When you do,

we'll go to the backyard together.

And then I'll say this out loud.

I'll never let you go again.

♫ In order to meet you ♫

♫ I make up all kinds of excuse ♫

♫ You're beyond my expectation ♫

It's all right.

It's okay.

♫ I want to hold on tight to your sleeves ♫

It's all right.

♫ You ask me what I want ♫

♫ I want to hold your hand and go around the space ♫

It's all right.

♫ We create our sweet life from scratch ♫

It's okay.

I'm scared.

♫ I want to live in your planet ♫

Don't be afraid.

I'll always be with you.

Well,

♫ Don't pretend to be indifferent ♫

when did you pick up

♫ This is the taste of love ♫

such a clumsy flirting trick?

♫ I'm sure that you feel it too ♫

I used to be clumsy.

♫ I'm drunk in your smile ♫

But rest assured.

I know it's all my fault.

♫ Don't waste the embrace ♫

That I always made you upset.

♫ Your dazzling light ♫

Don't worry.

Starting today,

♫ Is my fortress ♫

I will definitely work on it.

♫ Who do you long for under the starlight last night? ♫

And I'll say whatever you want to hear.

I'll always make you happy.

♫ We accidentally caught each other's eyes ♫

Starting today,

♫ Let me become your darling ♫

you'll know a different me.

Okay?

♫ Don't pretend to be indifferent ♫

Let's make a pinky promise.

♫ This is the taste of love ♫

♫ I'm sure that you feel it too ♫

♫ We accidentally caught each other's eyes ♫

♫ Let me become your darling ♫

Leader Huo.

It's confirmed.

Two kids from the old village

contracted polio

and passed away.

Qiao Xiang Wan's assistant, Xu, has surrendered himself.

Xu?

He said it's all his doing.

Besides Qiao Xiang Wan,

Xu and Kelly

has had a chance to gain access to the map of Friendship Hospital.

Xu said

when the fake Hank caused a scene,

Qiao Xiang Wan went to An Wan Hao's place.

He even told Xu that

Roy surely had something to do with what happened to the fake Hank.

Xu said Qiao Xiang Wan was his saviour.

That he wanted to do something for him. That's why he took photos of this map

and sent them to the fake Hank.

What about the two bodies of the child patients?

Xu said

he did that for Dr Jones, behind Qiao Xiang Wan's back.

Because he wanted to get rich.

It's such a complicated virus leak case.

He explained himself just by saying he wanted to get rich?

He's obviously trying to protect someone.

We've seen through it.

Xu is trying to protect one

or two persons.

All right.

If that's the case,

the truth would make us feel more upset.

They're trying to play with your emotions,

and give you guys,

especially you, Tian Cheng,

an out.

And see if you're going to let him or her off the hook.

Friendship

is a very precious thing.

Tian Cheng, I'm aware

that you're a very loyal person.

But we all know that,

between emotion, reason, and justice,

the last two should be above emotion.

If not, there would be

no rules and boundaries in this society.

In the face of matters of principle,

you can't hesitate.

Got it.

By locking down the Linshui Village,

we effectively contained the spread of epidemic.

But within the few days where they secretly got rid of the dead chickens

so as to cover up the epidemic,

the avian flu type J

has spread to the neighbouring villages

through infection among poultry.

This avian flu type J virus is really hateful.

The general avian flu virus

is limited in terms of human-to-human transmission.

But the type J virus

can be transmitted through saliva

and by touching.

It can be transmitted from poultry to human.

And it can quickly spread from person to person.

The epidemic hasn't spread to the West District.

But we've taken the measure that restricts people there from going out.

Sis Hong, 39.5 °C for Palai.

-Have you got your temperatures taken? -Yes.

Jot them all down.

Oh, right. Why aren't you wearing a mask?

Didn't we distribute masks to every family?

Quick, put it on.

Shu Hui.

Hurry up and give them a mask.

You protect yourself and others

-by wearing a mask. -Quick, put it on.

-The epidemic is getting very serious. -Put it on.

Every one of you needs to wear a mask.

-Hurry up and put one on. -Wear the mask.

Quick, put the mask on.

Here. Hurry up and put the mask on.

You must put it on.

It'll be done soon.

Here, open your mouth.

All right.

Don't panic.

One bottle of lobeline.

-Three milligrams. IV -Yes.

Got it.

-Perform tracheal intubation at once. -Yes.

Here.

Granny, are you home?

Granny.

Granny.

Granny.

Granny.

She's dead?

Leader Huo.

How's it going?

Have they found out what happened to the witch?

Sort of.

The witch had been having a fever since the beginning.

Upon hearing about the lockdown of Linshui Village,

she ran all the way to the house of the witch of the neighbouring village,

and stayed there for a few nights.

But while she's there, the condition became serious.

People were afraid and asked her to leave.

So she secretly came back here.

That means

it's very likely that

she had infected

those she came into contact with in the village she visited.

That's right.

That explains the cases of avian flu type J in other areas

while Linshui Village has been under a lockdown since the beginning.

This is the first death case of avian flu type J.

I shall made an immediate report and

urge the Health Department to strengthen prevention and control of the flu.

Leader Huo.

The situation in Linshui Village is basically under control.

Besides, the witch died because she ran away

and refused to receive treatment.

Are we going to tighten controls on it again?

One's irresponsible act

makes everyone's efforts go to waste.

The epidemic hasn't reached its turning point.

We can't take it lightly.

Yes.

[I'm at the balcony. I want to see you.]

What are we celebrating?

A commemoration.

To commemorate...

To commemorate

the 20th anniversary of the day we met.

Wow.

Time flies.

Can't believe it.

Then

let's toast to our honesty

and innocence.

To support each other through thick and thin.

Sometimes

I wish I could turn back time.

It's been twenty years.

We were very young back then.

Do you still remember?

It's been twenty years.

It's impossible

to compare you to Xiang Wan.

Tian Cheng.

I need your help.

What can I help you with?

Get me out of here.

I have to leave here.

And only you can help me.

Because you know the police well.

Please.

I'm just an ordinary doctor.

Do you think I...

I have something you're interested in.

What is it?

The vaccine.

The vaccine of avian flu type J.

Kelly.

Are you aware it's illegal for us to research vaccine there?

I know you won't report me.

You went to Dr Jones' lab, didn't you?

So?

Tian Cheng, I...

Actually, I've been meaning to tell you the truth.

But Xiang Wan and Dr Jones didn't let me do so.

Both of them don't believe you.

But I do.

You do know

Xiang Wan is a very skeptical person.

And that Dr Jones.

Even though he's a genius, he...

He's crazy.

He's very terrible.

Before he went away,

he left behind half of the vaccine.

And it's in my hand.

Both of us can share it together.

Tian Cheng.

Take me away

and we can start a second center for new drugs.

You want to start a second center for new drugs?

But I'm Qiao Xiang Wan No. 2.

You may not believe whatever I say.

But all these years,

I have

loved you.

Xiang Wan and I

have been together for many years.

And there's no love between us at all.

No romance.

No fresh flowers.

There's only business.

So I think of you all the time.

I think about the days we're together.

That's the happiest time in my life.

Tian Cheng.

Take me away.

We're each other's first love.

If we could be each other's last love, wouldn't it...

Where is the vaccine?

If you promise me,

I'll tell you.

Tell me.

Where is the vaccine?

I'm the vaccine.

Well.

Well.

We need to talk.

No, we probably don't.

Because we've got enough trouble already.

It's about Cindy.

Cindy probably doesn't need to talk either.

She already caused me enough problems.

What have you become?

Who are you?

Why don't you look at yourself?

How can you be so ungrateful?

Ungrateful?

Are you talking about me or yourself?

We're meant to be brothers.

Thomas, you crossed the line.

You crossed the line!

Do you know about being a brother?

Cindy is sick.

What?

J type bird flu.

What?

Do you still remember the day before Linshui Village's lockdown?

You said if we put the village under a lockdown before confirming the epidemic,

people would get panic.

But in the end, it's confirmed.

Avian flu type J.

How could this happen? I can't believe it.

My God. Then where is she? I need to talk to her.

She's in quarantine now.

She got infected while attending to a patient.

My God.

Oh God. Stupid girl.

I told her not to be a doctor.

She just tried to save other people. She can't even save herself.

Thomas!

Do you know any clue that's related to this epidemic?

There's a highly pathogenic avian flu outbreak out there.

All the infected patients are lying in the isolation rooms

and facing the threat of death,

including your sister.

How did the epidemic start?

And who's the mastermind behind it?

Stop telling me it's Dr Jones who ran away,

or Xu who wanted to get rich.

Aren't you responsible for it?

If you know something, tell the police.

Help Cindy.

Help yourself.

We all read medicine.

We know the basic medical principles very well.

Leader Huo is an infectious disease specialist.

And I've asked him about it.

You don't do virus research.

You don't have the ability.

You can't handle it.

I didn't protect Cindy.

How could this happen?

Okay.

If you want to see the truth,

just wait for me.

I'll show you the truth.

Trust me and do it my way.

Ms Liang.

We need your help with investigation.

Please come to the station with us.

Sure.

But

please give me a moment.

I want to get changed.

Sure.

Hi.

[Hi.]

[Kelly, let's talk.]

[What do you want to talk about?]

[Dr Jones.]

What about Dr Jones?

You brought him here.

Are you blaming me or...

Come on, Kelly. Stop acting.

I'm acting?

You and Xiao Xu have hidden so many dirty things from me.

I am disappointed in you.

Do you love me?

How much do you love me?

Would you lie to me?

How about you answer me this question?

Do you love me?

How much do you love me?

Would you ever lie to me?

You never told me you're adopted.

And you never let me touch the old mine.

I just found out the reason why.

You never treated me as your family.

[Kelly, I really don't know what's your problem.]

Mr Qiao was my dad.

He was like my biological dad.

He was my biological dad.

I...

I don't know. It's just hard to believe.

No.

It's not hard to believe.

The point is,

you need to tell me.

Otherwise, how do you expect me to believe anything you say?

Just like what you did with Xiao Xu.

Colluding with Dr Jones.

I am ashamed of you.

Just admit.

Fine.

I admit I love my sister more than anything in the world.

And I'll do anything for her.

I admit that

I'll do anything I can to protect the Qiao family name.

I'll admit

sometimes I have to make difficult decisions for that family.

I'll admit all of that.

Family?

What a great excuse.

It's always about family! It's always about your sister!

What about me?

What am I to you, huh?

I spent five years here.

I gave up everything and came here, and be your wife!

And what have you done?

I feel like I never knew you.

At the end of the day,

you did a lot of bad things.

And you are guilty.

[Why don't you tell the police that?]

[And do some soul searching here.]

I'll come and visit you.

Well, that is

a good advice.

Mind if I recommend the same?

You should tell the police.

Do some soul searching here yourself.

What the hell are you talking about?

I already told the police

that I can testify against you.
