Episode 19

Jiang.

Sorry for the hold-up.

Hope you don't mind.

It's okay.

In just a few days,

Zhang Zong Bao died.

I wouldn't mind

a few months,

let alone a few days.

That looks like Mr Qin.

Come with me!

Psych-Hunter

I figured it out.

This nail was made to fix something in place.

This blade

was used to cut it off.

The question is,

what did the blade

cut off?

Come with me.

Let me go!

What are you doing?

I'm here to look for our butler and young master.

Shut up.

This is Young Master's car.

Hold it.

Who are you?

I'm an attendant from Zhang Mansion.

You may leave.

Yes, Mr Qin.

Did you say this was Mr Zhang's vehicle?

Yes.

Why is the

car over here?

How strange.

Strange, you say?

What's strange?

Recently,

Young Master switched his old car

and bought a new one.

On the night of the purchase,

the driver, Mr Wu, lost his mind

and lost the car keys.

There are no keys to the car.

How did it end up here?

That crazy man, Mr Wu,

was he always with Mr Zhang?

The mansion employs two drivers.

Young Master likes taking Mr Wu with him.

Mr Wu is quite clever.

Why would he lose his mind all of a sudden?

How did this car

end up over here?

Mr Wu's insanity

might be related to the death of Zhang Zong Bao.

Butler Zhang.

Don't lay up trouble for yourself.

This is a huge deal.

You won't let me go home

or call anyone.

What's the meaning of this?

General Yuan's orders.

Until the murderer is caught,

no one is to leave

or disclose this matter to outsiders.

Please cooperate.

It's the death of our young master.

General Zhang should be informed.

-Butler Zhang. -Who are you?

I've come to investigate this case

on General Yuan's order.

I have a question for you.

What is it?

It's about Mr Zhang's driver, Mr Wu.

Where is he?

I don't know what you mean.

I don't know who Mr Wu is.

If you do not cooperate,

don't blame us for what happens next.

No.

Don't be rash.

Butler Zhang.

Lives are at stake.

Don't you want to find out

who murdered Mr Zhang?

Butler Zhang.

It's fine if you decide to keep quiet.

Mr Wu already lost his mind.

If you don't know where he is,

he might be the next to die.

After that,

it will be you.

That means, Mr Zhang's death

will remain unresolved.

It's up to you.

He...

He's confined in an abandoned

building near

Young Master's house.

Thanks.

Leave me alone.

I'm sorry.

It wasn't me.

It wasn't me.

I'm not married yet.

It wasn't me.

Qin Er, this Psych is rather interesting.

This house has legs.

This house

is heading towards the location

where Mr Wu met the ghost.

The answer we're looking for is over there.

She has come for me.

She's here!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Who's coming for you?

It wasn't me.

The place is growing more desolate.

The place that triggered Mr Wu's insanity

definitely isn't in the city.

This place

looks familiar.

I passed by here while impersonating as the driver.

What did Mr Wu

and Zhang Zong Bao experience here?

Qin Er.

Missing Person Registration: Mo Li

It's her.

It's no longer shaking.

This must be the place.

Let's check it out.

Missing Person Registration: Mo Li

Luckily the files were in the car.

Unknown

Is she the lady you two saw

in the Psych?

When I saw her face in the Psych,

I remembered

seeing records

of her disappearance.

Mo Li.

This sounds like a stage name.

We don't know her real name.

Mr Jiang said that

Zhang Zong Bao violated many women.

Mo Li is probably related to Zhang Zong Bao.

Watch where we are going.

Is this the location?

Don't worry.

I picked him up.

This was the spot.

Why are there so many stray dogs today?

Stop the car.

Someone's tampered with the soil.

Something is wrong.

Bai, call for backup.

Retrieve this for an autopsy.

Yes, sir.

How is it going?

Forensics is still working on it.

One of the corpses was wearing a white cheongsam.

The autopsy indicates

it's most likely Mo Li.

Though specific details have yet been confirmed.

What about the other one?

This is the portrait of the victim after restoration.

We have not identified the victim.

Bai.

Please continue to investigate.

Sure.

Jiang Shuo.

Come with me to find out about the dancer,

Mo Li.

Where are we going?

Somewhere

you've always wanted to go.

Gentleman.

Come and dance with me.

Stop acting so cold.

You came to dance.

Please show some respect.

Mo Li

worked at a place like this.

Are you here for Mo Li?

She was hired by General Zhang's son two days ago.

You won't see her today.

Show some respect.

Stop touching him.

Sorry, gentlemen.

Tian Tian, what are you doing?

Your performance is about to begin.

Why are you still here?

Go and get ready.

My apologies, sir.

I'm the supervisor here.

Are you looking for Mo Li?

Mo Li no longer works here.

Please leave.

Mo Li is dead.

Don't you know?

What?

We came

to find out about Mo Li's life before her death.

Over here, please.

She was doing fine.

Why did she die suddenly?

The woman just now told me

that Zhang Zong Bao hired her.

Qin Er, what does that mean?

That means she's a sugar baby.

That's ridiculous.

Mo Li was forced to

become a dancer here.

During this period,

she has never done anything shameful.

She'd never become a sugar baby.

What is her relationship

with Zhang Zong Bao?

Mo Li was the star of our estate.

Mr Zhang has his eyes

on her.

After her performance,

Mr Zhang's driver approached her.

Mo Li rejected him initially.

That silly girl.

She didn't want to cause me trouble

so she agreed to his request.

I was worried about her.

I did not take my eyes off her.

However,...

Young master.

Mo Li.

Mo Li.

Where are you taking Mo Li?

Our young master wants to talk to Mo Li.

We will send her back afterward.

Wait, I can't...

What happened next?

Mo Li stopped showing up to work after that.

I tried to question the driver,

but he shut me off.

He said

Mo Li took Mr Zhang's money

and returned to her home village.

Officer.

Was Mo Li

killed by Mr Zhang?

We can't confirm anything yet.

Investigation is still ongoing.

I have another request.

The woman in this portrait,

do you know who she is?

What is her relationship with Mo Li?

Are they friends?

I've never seen her.

Thank you.

One was a missing dancer.

What about the other?

Who is she?

It doesn't matter.

Zhang Zong Bao and Mr Wu

are closely connected to

both of their deaths.

The two female ghosts that appeared in Mr Wu's Psych proves it.

What we need to do right now

is to identify the other woman.

So to be "hired"

means being a "sugar baby?"

But what does "sugar baby" mean?

I don't suppose you know.

Sugar babies are people

who are fed and kept

by upper class people like us.

I get it.

Like what I did for you

at the compound.

Eyes on the road.

It's been a few days.

Without evidence,

you can't detain me here.

I have important matters to handle at the chamber.

I have no time to waste.

The publisher and I have agreed on

the date to publish the general's autobiography.

If you do not let me go,

the general's autobiography

will not be published as scheduled.

Yes.

General Zhang has an ill temper.

Ms Yuan,

at least allow me to give him a call.

Calm down.

The murderer is still on the loose.

No one is allowed to leave.

-When will you let us go? -General's orders.

Those who don't cooperate

will be shot on the spot.

I'm willing to stay here.

I'd like to see,

who's the hero

that killed that menace, Zhang Zong Bao?

Jiang Shuo.

You haven't recovered, Mu Qing.

You should get some rest.

-Have a seat. -I'm fine.

Did you find the murderer?

We found out about a dancer named Mo Li

and an unidentified woman.

Mr Zhang's death

may be related to both of them.

I was right.

It is related to women.

That lecher, Zhang Zong Bao

would violate just about any woman.

See?

He got what's coming to him.

I'm sure he was killed

by the vengeful ghosts of the women.

He deserved it.

Jiang.

You seem to know a lot.

How did you find out?

A year ago,

in order to deal with Zhang Zong Bao,

I dug up quite a lot of dirt on him.

I found out

he had violated an innocent woman.

However,

Zhang Zong Bao did everything he could,

from paying the woman

to threatening her.

She wouldn't see me ever again.

You're lying!

Our young master was a true gentleman.

He'd never do anything like that.

Whether it is the truth,

you, as the household's butler,

should know better.

You...

That's enough.

Stop arguing.

Since we know

his death is related to his trysts,

I guess I'm clean now.

I have a lot of work waiting for me at the chamber.

I'll be off, then.

The murderer would not have time to leave the hotel.

If my deduction is correct,

the murderer

is among us.

They are keeping us detained.

What should we do?

Are they removing this platform?

Forget it.

Someone died here. It's inauspicious.

Gentlemen.

I have a question.

Have you seen a piece of white cloth here?

A white ribbon?

Well,

we were ordered by General Yuan

to investigate this case.

Please cooperate with us.

Let's not trouble General Yuan to question you himself.

Actually, our troupe was very famous back then

because of a magician named Shi Shi.

She was very beautiful

and she was great at performing the White Ribbon Magic Dance.

Yes. In fact,

the white ribbon was specially made

to be very elastic.

With the white ribbon, Shi Shi

was able to perform

remarkable magic dances.

Shi Shi?

Where is Shi Shi now?

Unfortunately,

her beauty caught the eye

of a rich man during a performance.

However, he didn't give her anything.

She eventually lost her sanity.

Then, she disappeared.

We've never seen her since.

Is the rich man

Mr Zhang,

Zhang Zong Bao?

We did not say anything.

We don't know anything.

We told you everything we know.

Shi Shi.

I have a hunch she's involved.

Did she return with a vengeance?

We still haven't found the white ribbon.

We cannot confirm

that this case

is related to Shi Shi.

Qin Er.

That wall of flowers

was meant to keep the body hidden.

It's possible.

If the body was hidden behind the wall of flowers,

the people at the banquet

would not notice the body.

How did you come up with

the wall of flowers?

Is it a prop for a magic show?

Did someone order you to do so intentionally?

We just wanted to set the mood for the performance.

We have always done this.

Yes, if you don't believe us,

you may ask the Japanese who invited us here.

-Yamada. -Yes.

He's familiar with our work.

Thanks.

Did you find anything?

Nothing.

Yamada's overcoat.

I think I saw it in the cloakroom.

Jiang Shuo.

Get me a cup of water.

I knew it.

Do you know what drug is inside this bottle?

It's the poison, potassium cyanide.

It's similar to the powder found on the utensils.

Consume this and your heart paralyses immediately.

Do not touch.

Even a whiff

or a touch can kill you.

Someone laced Zhang Zong Bao's personal utensils with this poison

in order to kill him.

Whoever had the opportunity to poison him

must have also

attended the banquet.

It must be Yamada.

I did not kill Zhang Zong Bao.

Why are you arresting me?

I have proof.

This belongs to you, right?

I found this in his room.

It's potassium cyanide.

It's consistent with Zhang Zong Bao's cause of death.

While we weren't paying attention, Yamada

laced Zhang Zong Bao's utensils with potassium cyanide,

causing his death.

I did not!

-I did not kill him! -That's enough.

Yamada.

You are very brave.

To think you'd commit murders on my turf.

General, the Japanese have been courting your support.

If Ms Yuan and Mr Zhang get married,

the two families would become allies.

The Japanese would be left out.

I think Yamada murdered Mr Zhang

to sow discord

between the two families.

Lock him up.

We will hand him over to General Zhang tomorrow.

Yes, sir.

Why did you consume the poison?

Yes.

I came with the intention

of obstructing the marriage between the two families.

However, I did not

kill Zhang Zong Bao.

Yuan Zhen, all that investigation,

and you think I'm the culprit?

What a joke.

You Japanese are the joke.

Mr Yamada.

I'm not buying

your lies.

You killed Zhang Zong Bao.

And now that you're exposed,

you decide to tie up the loose ends

by killing yourself with poison.

There can be only one purpose.

And that's to eliminate

the Japanese military's involvement in this murder.

You...

You know

it wasn't me.

General.

Have you delivered Yamada's corpse

to General Zhang's residence?

Yes.

The body was delivered.

What did General Zhang say?

He did not say anything.

Nothing at all?

How could he?

What's the situation with the Japanese?

You were right.

The Japanese

claim that Mr Yamada acted on his own accord at the banquet.

The Japanese Embassy hadn't a clue.

It has nothing to do with them.

Yamada denied the charges even in his death.

I think there's more to this case.

I'm afraid after General Zhang receives the news,

he'll hold us responsible.

We need to wrap up the case

and blame it on the Japanese.

Kill two birds with one stone.

You're brilliant.

Qin Er, I have a feeling

that something isn't right.

This case was resolved easily.

It is not Liu Zhi's style.

This case isn't resolved yet.

We did not capture the murderer.

Zhang Zong Bao did not show up at the banquet.

He did not consume anything.

How could he be poisoned?

You knew he wasn't the real murderer.

Of course I knew.

But I didn't not give General Yuan an explanation,

what would happen to you?

But wasn't it unfair for Yamada?

Since he did that thing,

he didn't plan on leaving alive.

As for General Yuan,

I guess he's decided

to sever ties with the Japanese.

Qin.

According to the forensic report,

among the missing women,

Xu Ya Shi

is the best match.

Suffocation.

An impact trauma.

Mo Li

was buried alive while the other woman

was buried alive after getting hit by a car.

Yes, that's what I thought.

This was what triggered Mr Wu's insanity.

Zhang Zong Bao and Mr Wu

killed those women.

He felt guilty.

Zhang Zong Bao is dead now.

Mr Wu is the only person alive who knows the truth.

We tried to approach Mr Wu.

He lost his mind.

We got nothing.

Xu Ya Shi.

Shi Shi.

This name

sounds very familiar.

The troupe we investigated before

mentioned a magician

named Shi Shi.

Yes, she was once a magician.

I found what you need.

It's in the trash bin of the hotel.

It took all night for my men to retrieve this.

No thanks are necessary.

I know who the murderer is.

Come with me. Do not let her escape!

Ms Xu, are you leaving?

Don't worry. I'll see you off.

You haven't recovered, Ms Yuan.

I'll show myself out.

I'm almost recovered.

The car is ready.

Come, I'll see you out.

Thank you.

Jiang.

Sorry for the hold-up.

Hope you don't mind.

It's okay.

In just a few days, Zhang Zong Bao died.

I wouldn't mind

a few months,

let alone a few days.

That looks like Mr Qin.

Come with me!

Jiang Shuo.

Are you surprised?

Mr Qin, what are you up to?

General.

That was just a puppet

in my coat.

This is an experiment.

We're recreating Zhang Zong Bao's murder scene.

Our aim

is to reveal the truth

behind Zhang Zong Bao's death.

Wasn't he poisoned?

What do you mean by truth?

Let him finish.

Do you remember?

When Zhang Zong Bao fell off the building,

all of us saw a white ribbon.

This is the one.

He might have been poisoned.

But I only said that

to lower the murderer's guard,

and give myself time

to collect more evidence.

Although Yamada committed suicide because of this,

he did it because

he felt guilty.

Zhang Zong Bao's real cause of death

was being strangled

with this while ribbon.

This is a wide white ribbon.

Being strangled by it

would obstruct the oxygen supply

between the brain and the blood vessels,

causing suffocation.

However, it would not leave any marks.

Because there were no marks,

I did not think of such a possibility.

Mr Qin.

You said he did not fall to his death,

but that was only your assumption.

You need to show us some proof.

Why do you keep harping on this?

I'll give you another reason.

All of us know

this is the second floor of the hotel.

Excluding the distance between the roof of the car and the ground,

the height of the fall is less than five metres.

Unless he falls head on,

impacting the neck,

such a height

cannot kill an adult.

Zhang Zong Bao's head was intact,

as was his neck.

Thus, he did not fall to his death.

After strangling him with the white ribbon,

the murderer placed him on the balcony.

This balcony

was decorated with a wall of flowers

by the troupe that night.

Thus, no one would notice his body.

How did he fall off then?

The murderer fixed one end of the

white ribbon on this nail.

Behind the door,

the murderer placed a blade.

The other end

connects directly to the platform.

I've checked.

The screws on the platform were loosened.

Thus, the platform was held together by the white ribbon.

When Ms Yuan opened the door

as planned,

Zhang Zong Bao's body

fell off the platform.

That is also why

we saw the white ribbon

during the incident.

Strangely,

as I returned to the crime scene,

the white ribbon was gone.

That means the murderer took the opportunity

to get rid of the evidence.

Am I right,

Ms Xu?

How would I know?

I wasn't at the crime scene.

Yes, you weren't,

but Qin Er proved that

Zhang Zong Bao died before his fall.

Your absence at the scene

is not persuasive enough.

Mr Jiang said

that Zhang Zong Bao would violate women

and even kill them to silence them.

According to our investigation,

one of the victims

was your sister,

Xu Ya Shi.

Hence, you had a motive to murder.

We went to the place

where the bodies were hidden.

We discovered your sister's body.

Besides, we know

that you'd been there.

I believe that scene

is still clearly engraved in your mind.

Ms Xu is handicapped.

How could she have set up

something so complicated?

Besides, she was the last to arrive at the crime scene

because of her disability.

Every murderer has a way

of avoiding suspicion.

This wheelchair

is just a prop.

She's not really handicapped.

This white ribbon

was found in the hotel's trash bin.

We also realised

the soil there

was different from the soil at the hotel.

Why don't you

check the bottom of her shoes?

Check the bottom of your own shoes

and the bottom of Ms Xu's,

you will see the difference.

You'll know who the murderer is.

Even if I'd been to the disposal site,

what does that prove?

That proves you threw the white ribbon away.

That also proves

you're not actually handicapped.

But there's more.

Because you were unable to measure

the distance between the door and the balcony,

and you needed to prepare the ribbon beforehand,

you must've prepared more ribbon

than was required, just in case.

We searched everyone's room

and their luggage.

The only thing we have not searched

is your wheelchair.

Please excuse me.

What do you have to say?

Yes.

I killed

Zhang Zong Bao.

I regret not killing him earlier.

If he had died earlier,

my sister

wouldn't be dead.

Ms Xu.

You claimed that Zhang Zong Bao raped you,

what is your proof?

We can't open a case without proof.

Officer.

My sister is the victim.

Look at her now.

Why won't you prosecute him?

She's mentally unstable.

Her words carry no weight.

We cannot file this report.

Go home.

My tooth aches.

Officer.

Sister.

Look at what I brought you.

Osmanthus cakes.

Madam Li.

-I'm coming. -Madam Li.

I'm coming.

Where's my sister?

I did not enter Ms Ya Shi's room today.

I don't know where she went.

How could you leave her alone?

It's dangerous for her to go outside alone.

Hurry up and find her.

Let's go.

Your sister's corpse

is in the woods.

That can't be.

Your sister's murderer

is General Zhang's son.

-I want you to take care of it. -Zhang Zong Bao.

If anyone finds out, I'll kill you.

Yes, young master.

I'll take care of it.

If you follow my instructions,

you will be able to

avenge your sister.

Dear General Yuan,

I've been working on your autobiography.

I would like to meet with you.

Thank you.

Ms Xu.

How can I help you?

Mr Zhang.

I've long admired you.

Will you let me in?

Ms Xu.

Captain Yang.

What were you doing sneaking around?

I wasn't sneaking around.

Something is wrong with Zhang Zong Bao. Meet me in his room. Jiang Shuo.

Zhang Zong Bao died.

You did all you could to uncover the truth.

However, no one cared about

my sister's death.

Only by killing him

can my sister rest in peace.

Mr Qin.

You caught me.

You get to brag about it.

I'm sure you're happy now.

You're mistaken.

Although he captured you,

he also captured

the only witness

to your sister's case.

Help! No!

It wasn't me! Don't kill me!

I'm still unmarried!

Confess your crimes

or the ghost will haunt you.

No.

It was Young Master.

He forced me to.

That woman

stopped the car trying to save Mo Li.

She ran straight to the car.

I couldn't stop in time

and ran her over.

I wanted to save her,

but Mr Zhang was afraid it'd make things worse.

He ordered me

to bury the woman along with

the dancer who witnessed everything alive.

I didn't want to do it.

He said if I don't do it,

he'd accuse me.

So I...

He said he'd pay me so

I can go home and find a wife.

You accomplice!

You despicable accomplice!

Xu Ya An.

You and Xu Ya Shi were sisters.

She died

trying to save the dancer.

For the sake of revenge,

you chose to kill a man.

Sister.

I finally avenged you.

I'll meet you soon.

Father, have some tea.

Father.

We caught the murderer.

Jiang Shuo isn't the murderer.

Stop holding it against him.

That may be true,

but his relationship with Liu Zhi is still uncertain.

We mustn't let our guard down.

Father, he is not a murderer.

Just trust me.

I'm a better judge of people.

Mr Qin.

You promised to

establish a task force to investigate Liu Zhi and uncover the truth.

What are you going to do now?

You're right, General Yuan.

Everything Liu Zhi has done

seems to be against Jiang Shuo.

It's true that his ties with Liu Zhi is uncertain.

We mustn't let our guard down.

Yi Heng.

Relax, Ms Yuan.

Let me finish.

For this reason,

Jiang Shuo holds the key to finding Liu Zhi.

His mind-reading technique

is the fastest way to find Liu Zhi.

So please, General,

let Jiang Shuo off the hook.

So we can carry on with the investigation.

Father, Yi Heng is right.

If we kill Jiang Shuo,

we won't be able to find the real Liu Zhi.

Father.

I have only one condition.

He's not allowed near my daughter.

Changshanzhou Daily

Hero Zhang Zong Bao Sacrificed Himself to Protect Changshanzhou

Female Assassin Arrested, Awaits Prosecution

General's Order

What are you doing?

Trying to bust her out?

General's orders.

I need to speak to Xu Ya An in private.

Let her out.

Give us a moment.

Get her down here.

What would you like to say?

I'm not the one looking for you.

They are.

We heard what happened,

so we came to see you.

Who are you?

Zhang Zong Bao, that brute.

The news outlets are corrupt.

No one reported the truth.

They even called him a hero.

The truth mustn't be suppressed.

What can you do?

Actually, we are all victims

of Zhang Zong Bao's.

That's what we thought in the past.

We thought no one would believe us.

Our families

don't want us to shame them.

Who would sympathise with us

on something like this?

My father

viewed me as a disgrace to the family.

My own uncle

said behind my back

that I seduced Mr Zhang.

A life for a life.

Violence isn't the answer.

You're all great women.

Live on.

Put everything that brute has done

behind you.

We've decided to publish

and expose Zhang Zong Bao's crimes in the papers.

He's no hero,

and you're no assassin.

I want to publish my story.

Me too.

Me too.

Murderer

Thank you.
