[Episode 21]

Although this is business,

we still need to build friendship, right?

However,

for so many items,

this sincerity

isn't enough.

Isn't money the problem then?

That's easy.

Let's reschedule the meeting.

I'll bring you the rest of my money.

[At the same time, sincerity is mutual.]

Attention. Someone is at the door listening.

I need to know your real strength.

As long as what you and Xiaochang said is true,

I'll pay...

What are you looking at?

You've never seen a woman?

Are you crazy?

I wasn't looking.

You were looking at her the whole time.

Do you think I didn't see it?

Explain this to me.

Explain this to me!

What are you two doing?

-Where is he? -He went to the left.

Block all exits.

Turn right at the end.

I'm sorry about that.

We just...

As long as what you and Xiaochang said is true,

I'll pay half in advance if you want.

Mr. Zhao.

I'll tell my boss about your sincerity.

We'll meet again soon.

Don't worry.

Okay.

We'll meet again.

Mr. Zhao.

Your people are all excellent.

I'm really sorry.

He went out the back door.

[Mr. Bao, take some men to the back door.]

Got it.

Xiaochang, go to the back door.

This way.

Where is he?

We didn't see him.

Did we lose him?

We lost him.

Retreat.

But...

Let's go.

Find a way to succeed.

Don't find excuses for failure.

Find a way to succeed.

Don't find excuses for failure.

Let's go!

What are you doing here?

It's nothing, ma'am.

I'm just passing by.

Let's go! I'm the strongest!

Let's go! I'm the best!

Go on.

Find a way to succeed.

Don't find excuses for failure.

You were being watched?

Have you identified him?

I checked the footage.

It was Li Ruosheng.

Did Mr. Ou find out about something?

So he sent Li Ruosheng there?

I don't think that's likely.

Firstly,

with Liu Qingqing's confidentiality,

she wouldn't let anyone else know

about our meeting.

But he showed up at the scene.

If Mr. Ou sent him,

that would mean he knew about the meeting.

Then he would've done more

than just stalking us.

According to this logic,

Yuanwen must have set this up.

But if they planned this,

they should report in advance.

It could be due to the circumstances

that they couldn't tell us.

Contact them.

Make sure that they're safe.

Find out what their plan is.

Yes.

I got it.

Why did Li Ruosheng follow them?

I sent him.

I didn't expect this to happen.

Then...

Did he see Rong Yao?

That's possible.

How about this?

I'll go back and check him out.

Tell Rong Yao.

About our next step,

let's decide after we discuss it.

I was working my backside off out there.

You're here playing games.

That's cool.

Hurry and sit.

-Play with me. -Let's do it.

Wait a minute.

Do you think I'll be negligent?

Is that why you're here?

Did you find anything?

I found nothing.

But I saw her dealing

with a bunch of outsiders.

Outsiders?

It was a man.

I heard them call him Mr. Zhao.

His accent sounds Eastern.

He was with a man and a woman.

They also said other things,

but I didn't hear them

because the guy noticed me.

You had no idea. He chased after me.

But the guy looks familiar somehow.

Have you seen him before?

I've been trying to figure it out.

I really don't know.

I feel like I've seen him.

Maybe I got it wrong.

-Stop it. -What's wrong?

Have you ever seen this person or not?

This is important.

How important can it be?

I told you that I can't remember.

You know that I'm slow sometimes.

I forget people.

Maybe I know his face, but not his name.

Or I know his name, but not his face.

I'll tell you if I know, all right?

Hurry up.

We died.

Gosh.

Hurry up. Follow me.

Don't get too far away.

No wonder you died.

So Li Ruosheng didn't recognize me?

[But he thinks you look familiar.]

How familiar?

He said that

he doesn't remember where he saw you.

[But I still think it's a problem.]

If we continue tracking down Liu Qingqing,

it could be dangerous.

We should find someone else.

That won't work.

Liu Qingqing is alerted.

If we switch now, she'll be suspicious.

I don't agree.

I mean...

[Maybe we can find another way.]

Don't worry.

I already have a plan.

What is your plan?

Yuanwen.

Pull Li Ruosheng out for now.

After I find out

who's behind Liu Qingqing,

you can send him out.

Skylark, coordinate with Yuanwen

and stall Li Ruosheng.

Leave the rest to me.

Are you still going to do it?

It's our mission. It must be done.

It's too risky.

Can you give me and Mu Qing more time?

Maybe we can find a better way.

We don't have time.

That's the only way.

Okay. Be careful.

Let's do that.

[Feel free to look around.]

Hello.

You're jogging too?

In our last mission,

you and Zhao Ran played

the "good cop, bad cop."

You acted well.

Thumbs up for you.

Zhao Ran had a great script.

I just went along with it.

In a team,

coordination is progress.

No.

It's a huge step forward.

What are you trying to say?

Was that a compliment or not?

What do you think?

I was quite nervous actually.

I was afraid of making mistakes.

I didn't expect

that you'd be quick-witted.

You gave me a hint.

That's not enough.

But you understood me.

Well, as a qualified

Public Security officer,

we must always have a strong heart

and lucid mind.

That's how

we complete our mission efficiently.

Am I right?

That's right.

Why are you running so fast?

Wait for me.

Come on.

Rong Yao.

Stop right there!

But by doing this,

you're in danger of being exposed.

Even if it's dangerous,

I need to make sure

that our people are safe.

Therefore,

I'll leave it to you

to stall Li Ruosheng.

Okay.

I'll find a way to stall him.

You need to be careful.

You still don't trust my capability?

Don't worry.

[It's my fault.]

[I let him run away.]

What's the point of saying that now?

That's not the issue.

The problem is we might be exposed.

Even if we are,

we still have to track Liu Qingqing.

I don't believe

that she won't contact her boss.

I'm sure she will.

But we still don't know

how many phones she has.

How do we track her?

Just as we finally got something...

All right, guys.

Stay focus.

Liu Qingqing just called us.

Our next meeting

is at Wenhua Grand Hotel,

room 823, at 3 p.m.

So we need to get ready now.

Let's catch them red-handed.

What?

Did I hear you correctly?

You're doing it for me?

Yes, I'll do it for you.

You don't have to go.

Just stay at home and rest.

I got it.

You think I've been working too hard.

That's why you feel sorry for me.

You've gained conscience, right?

Look at you.

Can't you accept my kindness?

Of course.

Thank you, sir.

I'm going.

Thank you. I'll take the day off then.

Li Ruosheng.

Where is Mu Qing going?

He has things to do.

What things?

Not with other women.

You bought a lot of meat.

Did Mu Qing tell you it's my day off?

Is that why you bought these to reward me?

Take it.

Thank you.

You're so lucky.

Please.

My goodness.

All right.

Right now, we're at Wenhua Grand Hotel.

Everyone, line up here.

Get your luggage.

Do a head count.

Everyone, follow my lead.

Check in at the lobby.

This way.

Plug it in.

You two, on high ground.

You two, the perimeter.

-Go now. -Yes, sir.

-How is it? -We can hear you.

The video and audio are clear.

Okay.

Call it if you see the goods.

Got it.

Hello?

I'm on my way.

What are you doing?

[Skylark and I]

[are worried about your safety.]

[So she's stalling Li Ruosheng.]

I'll be on the lookout.

We have two dozen officers here.

What's the point of coming alone?

Let's hope you won't need me.

I'm hanging up.

Where's Liu Qingqing?

[Are you Mr. Zhao?]

[I am.]

Take them out. We need to check them.

You should be nicer.

Our deal was made with Liu Qingqing's boss.

Are you the boss?

That was the deal,

but not here.

[You might not understand.]

[Mr. Zhao wishes to meet]

[with Liu Qingqing's boss.]

If her boss is not here,

we won't give you the money.

Fine, let's go.

Guys, you're already here.

Do you have to do this?

Can't you just check it?

Hold on.

You should've done that sooner.

Remember this.

We make the rules.

I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao.

It's my phone.

What is this?

My watch.

Take it off.

Wait.

No, I'm going in.

Hold it.

Don't ruin the plan.

It's fake.

No wonder it looked so weird.

Turn around.

It's okay.

Come with us.

Attention, all units.

The targets are leaving through the front door.

Come on!

Stay close, everyone.

They're gone.

It must be the alley behind us.

They tricked us.

Call Traffic Control.

We need the security footage.

Yes.

Mr. Zhao.

It has been a while

since we last saw each other.

Is this how you treat your clients?

Do you treat them like thieves?

I've never seen this before.

Where's your boss?

What's the hurry?

Please come in.

I finally get a day off

and a nice meal.

Hello?

I'm having a hot pot with Kexin.

Why? Are you jealous?

Text me Linda's location.

You lost Linda?

Hold on.

Eat up. I need to take this call.

What's going on?

How did you lose Linda?

Shut up. Just send me the location.

Give me a second.

I sent it to you. Did you get it?

Okay, thank you.

Hold on.

I think this address

is Tieguanyin's fish farm.

[So isn't she working for Tieguanyin?]

About that,

I won't know until I see it.

Wait for me at home.

[Okay, be careful.]

[Innovation in technology, Precision in command, Service in action]

Director Liu.

What's happening?

There was a situation.

We lost Rong Yao's location.

We can't find him now.

Director Liu.

It's Captain Rong and Zhao Ran.

We need immediate reinforcements

to find their location.

-Xiaowang. -Yes, sir.

Initiate emergency protocol.

Search the city.

Yes.

You two, wait in the car.

I'll let you know as soon as we have any news.

Yes.

Hello, Director Liu.

I was about to call you.

When Li Ruosheng was stalking Liu Qingqing,

he put a tracker

on the back of her phone case.

[I'm heading to her location now.]

But right now, Liu Qingqing

is at one of Tieguanyin's fish farms.

Tieguanyin?

Are you sure?

I'm not completely sure yet.

Okay.

I'll ask the task force to work with you.

But they can only watch.

They won't show up unless there's an emergency,

[Do you understand?]

Yes.

You must be careful.

[Yes, sir.]

[Attention, all units.]

[We have Captain Rong's position.]

[Please proceed to the location immediately.]

[Yes, ma'am!]

How long do we have to wait?

I want to meet your boss, not you.

My boss is on the way.

She'll be here soon.

If you're worried,

have some tea first.

You...

Boss, calm down.

-Linda. -Don't be mad.

Have a seat.

Have a seat.

Boss, here. Have some tea.

What's wrong with Linda and Mu Qing?

Where did they go?

I'm asking you.

Stop freaking out, will you?

I'm thinking.

While we're having hot pot here,

Mu Qing is out with Linda?

Where are they going?

This won't do.

Take your time. I'm going out.

Where are you going?

Tell me right now.

Where are they?

I have some business to tend to.

It's not about those two.

It's about me. Okay?

I don't care.

Tell me clearly.

What is Mu Qing doing with Linda?

What are you saying? There's no time.

I don't care if there's no time.

You're not going anywhere unless you tell me.

Mu Qing is in trouble.

Mu Qing and Linda are in trouble?

It's not about him and Linda.

He was tracing Linda to her boss.

But it's probably a setup by the police.

The police?

Are you serious?

I'm not sure.

I'm just not sure.

But if I don't go now,

it will be too late.

Why didn't you say that earlier?

Where are you going?

This is one-tenth of the package.

Take it for now.

Do you take me for a fool?

I brought you the rest of the money,

yet you only gave me a tenth of the package.

I'm sorry. That's all for today.

Leave the money here.

Let's talk about the rest in a few days.

That's against the rules.

I am the rule.

You can't do that.

Where's your boss?

I want to talk to your boss.

I'm the dealer today.

If you want to make a deal,

then take these.

If you don't want to make a deal,

I'll make you leave now.

Kexin, you can't go.

You can't get emotional now.

I'm not being emotional.

Calm down and think about it.

Let's say those people are the police.

Do you know about their setup?

Do you know about their deal?

Maybe Mu Qing could have escaped unscathed.

You might make it worse.

That's exactly why you can't go.

Why can you?

You're on the list.

They'll have you arrested too.

What are you thinking?

I can't let anything happen to my friend.

I can't let anything happen to my boyfriend either!

I'm not like you guys.

I'm not a drug dealer.

Even if they are the police,

they can't do anything to me.

I can surprise them all.

That's the only way to save Mu Qing.

Stop thinking and let's go!

I've been in this business for years.

No one has ever dared to do this to me.

When doing business,

you shouldn't be so overbearing.

I won't do it.

Return the money. The deal is off.

What's the rush?

Boss.

It's a troop of lady soldiers.

You wanted to see the boss.

Here I am.

[In 300m, turn left.]

[Please slow down.]

[Innovation in technology, Precision in command, Service in action]

Cut the car in front. Hurry.

Now that the true boss is here,

let's begin our deal.

Weren't you just about to leave?

I was just hot-tempered.

I can't stop you

if you really want to leave.

But my girls have been working so hard.

They have to be paid.

Otherwise, you can't leave.

A double-cross?

That's not nice.

I'm afraid that's not the case.

Mr. Mu.

What are you doing here?

I want to see Tieguanyin.

She's in a meeting. She can't meet you.

Tie him up and interrogate him.

-Boss. -This...

Shut up.

Don't move!

You're pretty good.

Are you trained?

Tieguanyin.

Since you're disloyal,

don't blame us for being rude.

He even knows my name.

Do you think by doing this,

you'll make it out alive?

Think harder.

[Kexin]

[Where are you?]

What's wrong?

Li Ruosheng said

there might be a cop

among the people at the meeting.

[It's the same cop who chased me]

when Dakun set us up.

He's Mr. Zhao's man.

Be careful.

We're on our way.

[Don't worry, I'm here.]

I'll count to three.

If you don't let him go,

I'll shoot you in the head.

Three.

Two.

Guanyin.

Guanyin, why are you here?

Mu Qing.

I'm also wondering. Why are you here?

Should we get closer? I can't see anything.

No.

If we're exposed, they'll be in danger.

Guanyin.

We're all family.

That's not necessary.

Don't worry, Guanyin.

I came alone.

I didn't even tell Mr. Ou about this.

Where's Li Ruosheng?

He's doing something else.

Let's be honest.

Tell me how you got here.

Li Ruosheng put a tracker

on Linda's phone case.

I followed the tracker to get here.

You can take a look.

Ms. Guanyin.

Why are you everywhere?

It's not safe to know too much.

You might lose your head for it.

Guanyin.

What's in it for you?

You know Mr. Ou's temper very well.

You know what he hates.

You're making deals behind his back

and even imitating Scorpion's technique.

If Mr. Ou finds out about this,

what do you think will happen?

Guanyin, don't be rash.

I'm not the kind of person

who tells on others.

I didn't mean to blackmail you.

Making extra money isn't a big deal.

It doesn't harm me,

and I can't stop you either.

Don't you agree, Guanyin?

Mr. Ou.

I was getting nervous

when you mentioned him.

What do you plan to do then?

These two work for me.

I wanted them to find out

whom Linda is working for.

I didn't expect it to be you.

What a coincidence, right?

You two, apologize to Guanyin.

Ms. Guanyin, I'm Yao Yuan.

This is Tiannan.

Tiannan...

Throw the knife away.

Greet Ms. Guanyin.

I'm sorry, Ms. Guanyin.

My name is Zhao Tiannan.

Look, it's just a misunderstanding.

You two should get going.

Come on.

Hold on.

Turn around. Let me see your face.

Yao Yuan.

Zhao Tiannan, isn't it?

Why have I never seen you two before?

It's Li Ruosheng's car.

I'm warning you.

Stay in the car.

Kexin.

Take this.

Why would I take it? I'm not crazy.

You're silly.

Listen, if I'm not back in 15 minutes,

call my dad.

Be careful.

That's strange.

Why is Ou Kexin here too?

Ou Kexin is here.

Attention, all units.

If things get out of hand,

move in.

Make it quick.

Yes, sir.

Mu Qing.

You said that they're your men.

Can you prove it?

If you can't prove it,

no one gets out of here alive!

Guanyin, you're here too.

Ms. Ou, why are you here?

Li Ruosheng told me

that Mu Qing was with Linda.

I thought they were on a date.

So I forced him to give me her location.

It's quite crowded here.

It doesn't seem like a date.

Kexin, how could I have a date here?

-How would I know? -Ms. Ou.

We're having a serious conversation.

You should go home.

It's cold by the sea. Don't catch a cold.

What is this?

Are you making a deal

behind my dad's back?

Guanyin.

Does my dad know about the deal?

Ms. Ou.

When did you get involved

in running the group?

Your dad doesn't know about that, does he?

I know how the group works.

I won't get involved

in anything that's business-related.

It's just that

this group belongs to my dad after all.

And I'm his daughter.

Tell me.

After seeing this,

should I tell my dad?

Actually, it's not what you think.

Ms. Ou, what are you trying to say?

What am I trying to say?

I'm not trying to say anything.

I just thought they were on a date.

I didn't expect to run into a secret deal.

From what I see, Guanyin,

shouldn't you give me an explanation?

Actually, it can't be explained

in just a few words.

It's not what you think.

Guanyin.

I was kidding.

Everyone has their own motives.

I get it.

You need to have a motive

so you can truly work for the group.

I'll let you fulfill your motive.

Guanyin.

What about my motive?

Shouldn't you let me fulfill it as well?

Kexin.

Tell me what you want.

It's him.

I have my eyes on him.

I just don't want to see

any fly or insects

that keep buzzing around.

It's so annoying.

Guanyin.

Can you keep your people out of it?

Kexin.

Don't say that.

Why? Are you worried about her?

No, I'm not.

This is business.

You're not supposed to be involved.

Take my men with you.

Get out of here.

Fine, I'll get going.

But this isn't over yet.
