Episode 32

Mr Liu Zhi.

How are you?

How are the goods?

They're fine.

Sir, may I ask

what is our next move?

Don't touch anything before

we see Yin River.

Don't worry, sir.

They won't be lost for long.

We'll get the map soon.

I'm always patient

towards youngsters.

I hope you will

correct your own mistakes as soon as possible.

Yes, sir.

Psych-Hunter

You shouldn't be involved.

What do you mean?

It's Father's wishes.

So you know where Father is?

I don't know where he is.

No matter what,

I'm not counting on you to do anything.

But, Yi Heng.

Don't you meddle in the deep waters of the Port!

You have character.

The police force

tend to complicate things.

I know what you want.

I don't know this guy.

I'm just a guard here.

Whatever he was thinking

or wherever he was going

doesn't concern me.

But I'm telling you, Mr Bai.

Anyone who wrecks havoc at my turf

and breaks my rice bowl today,

he won't live to eat anymore.

Do you know who he is?

We're investigating!

You want to eat?

I'll take you.

It's just a joke, sir!

Please don't get angry.

I won't make trouble.

That's interesting.

Stand watch over there.

Yes, sir.

Miss Yuan is here.

Make way, please.

Miss Yuan? Why are you here?

I've completed my work.

-So I came for a visit. -Sure.

Have you asked the porters here?

Not yet.

Hello.

-Officer. -Officer.

We want to ask

whether you're familiar with Mr Tang.

Yes.

We don't think Mr Tang was the bad buy.

Whenever we worked overtime,

he would set up a stove

and cook us some food.

Steamed buns too.

That's right.

He was alive and well last night.

But he ended up this way.

To say, he had no kin.

Now that he had passed away,

no one could send him off.

-You're right. -Wait.

You said you saw him last night?

Yes.

He said he came for an inspection.

He came on a rickshaw.

That's right.

Inspection?

Are the goods problematic?

It's just goods.

How could there be a problem?

That's right.

Onsen

You're bringing trouble to our family!

I'm helping our family.

There!

Are you done?

Why don't you open them up?

Do you want to open them?

After that, get out.

These are all normal things.

Why did you stop me?

Yi Heng!

Bai Kai! Stop them!

Fireworks are forbidden

-Stop! -Stop!

-Make way! -Make way!

What happened?

Take them back.

Investigate every single child missing case

-right away. -Yes, sir!

Aren't you capable back there?

Why are you quiet now?

Zhu.

What is this?

Children.

Don't be afraid.

You're safe with me.

Can you tell me your names?

Here.

That's it.

Save the trouble.

Little girl.

Here's something nice.

You're nuts, Qin Er!

Why did you hit me?

We couldn't communicate at all.

It was dangerous!

Did you meet with danger?

It wasn't any danger.

This is a first for me.

We couldn't speak or hear anything.

It's possible that

their neural receptors were damaged

from being kept captive.

What can we do?

Can they be cured?

They'll need some time to recuperate.

They need an accommodation.

What about my house?

My aunt and uncle love children.

They'll care for them.

Here.

Kids.

Shall we go to my house?

I have a lot of

delicious food and fun things.

There's chocolate

and dolls too.

Come.

Let's go.

Don't worry.

What do you think

was the intention of the perpetrator?

Mr Tang is dead.

A batch of abducted children returned.

Could it be

that he meant good?

What do you mean?

No one should've been killed.

If this Mr Tang

was the human trafficker,

He would've distracted the others

when he was working.

But could the timing

happen to work for the murderer?

Qin Er.

Do you think your

brother received benefits from Mr Tang?

The Qin family port...

Boss!

Boss!

Not only did our men checked the files here,

they investigated the shipping board,

water and tax bureau.

Nothing was traced.

Don't you think this person is godlike?

We found nothing.

What rubbish!

No human can be god.

Yi Heng!

Where are you going?

Question my brother.

Why should you?

You have no evidence with you.

We'll get him soon.

Why don't we search Mr Tang's house?

Hello?

The police station.

Please wait a moment.

Boss.

It's General Yuan.

It's General Yuan!

Yes, General.

I learned about the case.

Changshanzhou is not a place that condones

illicit activities from the wealthy.

Investigate further on

the human trafficking.

Remember.

No matter which port

or what individual,

as long as they dared to meddle in it,

-you know what to do. -Yes, sir.

Rest assured, General.

I'll investigate this thoroughly.

Good.

You two, take your men

to Tian Sheng Port now.

-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir!

Yuan Mansion

Aunt.

Are you tired?

I heard that you have been

cleaning them up this afternoon

and played with them.

You didn't have time for a nap.

I'm not tired.

I'm happy enough

that I can give you a hand.

But I wonder what kind of shock

these children had encountered.

They've been like this for a while now.

They'll be fine.

Aunt.

I've sent someone to

buy your favourite desserts today.

Try one.

Qing'er, you're so kind.

Where did you go?

You're covered in sweat.

I was investigating.

Go and change at my room later

and try the new bangle I bought you.

You bought something for me?

You're the best, Aunt!

Who should I dote on instead?

But I need to let you know.

You're an unmarried, distinguished lady.

Where did you bring these bunch of kids?

Your father will be mad if he sees them.

I told my father.

I'll send them off when the case ends.

It'll be hard on you for a while, Aunt.

It's nothing.

These are all poor kids.

What's going on with you and your crush?

Don't talk about it, Aunt.

He's a piece of wood.

He knows nothing.

There are two kinds of men.

The cultivated ones and uncultivated ones.

If the one you met was uncultivated,

you must find a way to cultivate him.

Understand?

I'm inexperienced about this, Aunt.

Please teach me slowly.

Children, come and eat!

I have some sweets.

Mr Wan?

What a commotion.

Mr Wan.

Why were you alerted about this?

Mr Wan!

-Young Master Qin. -Hello.

Didn't you say you've prepared some

pearl necklaces?

I'm here to pick one.

Mr Wan.

Something had happened at the port today.

I'm embarrassed.

It's like this, Mr Wan.

We need to collect these boxes for an inspection

to see if there are children inside.

But Mr Qin was trying to stop us.

So that's what happened.

Please do me a favour, Mr Qin.

The police had their reasons.

How about this?

I'll paste my seals on your boxes

and send them away.

No one can open them without your consent.

What do you think?

Mr Wan is General Yuan's confidante.

You're also the Chairman of the Changshanzhou Commerce

who's in charge of all ports in Changshanzhou.

With you as guarantor,

I have nothing to say.

-Inspect properly! -Yes, sir.

Young Master Qin.

Can I choose my pearl necklace now?

Mr Wan is really doting on your wife.

This way, please.

I'll prepare them.

Do it slowly!

Changshanzhou Wan Family's Trading

Mr Liu Zhi.

How are you?

How are the goods?

They're fine.

Sir, may I ask

what is our next move?

Don't touch anything before

we see Yin River.

Don't worry, sir.

They won't be lost for long.

We'll get the map soon.

I'm always patient

towards youngsters.

I hope you will

correct your own mistakes as soon as possible.

Yes, sir.

It's so clean.

Qin Er.

Look.

It's cleaner than you.

This means he was problematic.

You knew?

Clues are hard to find

in such a clean place.

Thank you, mister.

You're welcome.

I finally caught up!

Did you find anything?

This house is spotless.

Mister.

Did you tidy up for him?

I didn't.

Mr Tang is a mysophobia.

He'll get mad if anyone touched his stuff

and he'll throw them away.

He tidied up the place himself.

Nothing was left.

He'll only buy one set of fruits

once every meal.

I tried to speak to him,

but he...

Then who did he interact with usually?

He was not married and I

don't see his friends.

But I'm not certain.

It was said that

Qin Huai had three good friends.

Perhaps Mr Tang had friends.

But they never came here.

Then what was his hobby?

Otherwise,

where would he go usually?

This...

Mister,

what is this for?

This is the locker key for Sakura Onsen.

Mr Tang would frequently go to

that onsen house.

Nothing could stop him from going there every day.

This is the onsen house owner.

She's beautiful.

Then where is this onsen house located?

It's here in West Street.

Let's go and have a look.

Onsen

Goodbye!

Sorry for our slow service.

Miss Sakurako is not here today.

We've prepared designated

lockers for our regulars.

I won't disturb you both.

Two, five, seven

Look.

As expected.

Tian Sheng Port

Mr Tang was not

here for a bath at the onsen house.

Tian Sheng Port's receipt?

Was this used to collect goods?

Logically, Mr Tang would have managed plenty of goods.

But why are only these two receipts here?

Look.

This was yesterday's receipt.

One was yesterday,

which were the kids.

This is for tomorrow.

Could it be...

Let's go back for now.

Tomorrow, we'll check the port.

Qin Er.

Why don't we take a dip since we're here?

We can look for other clues.

Two VIPs.

Qin Er.

That lady boss

was intimate with Gui.

Why did the waiter

say she's not here?

Besides,

didn't Mr Tang favour that lady boss too?

Is the lady boss that attractive?

Why can't I see it?

Do you like her as well?

What did you say?

I just thought

Gui's tattoo was strange.

If we skip the dragon's middle

and look at its lines,

doesn't it look like a leaf?

And it looked like

the leaf tattoo behind Mr Tang's ear.

Leaf tattoo?

Moreover, they visit the same onsen house

and are both in love with the lady boss.

This is complicated.

We'll talk at the station.

Wait.

That night,

Mr Tang took a rickshaw.

Let Mu Qing

investigate it.

Let's go.

Quan!

-Quan is here. -Brothers!

Let me introduce you.

She is

the daughter of General Yuan of Changshanzhou,

Miss Yuan.

She has some inquiries.

Hello, Miss Yuan.

I have a question.

Who was the one

who took Mr Tang here?

-Si? -It must be Si.

That's right, it's Si.

If anyone can explain clearly,

this belongs to him.

I know, Miss Yuan!

Mr Tang was a kind man.

Generous as well.

But he never spoke much to us.

If you want to know more about Mr Tang,

you have to ask Si.

Mr Tang liked him very much and

always requested for him.

Can you take me to him?

Yes, I can.

Please have a seat.

Goodbye, Miss Yuan!

Be careful, Miss Yuan.

Why did it rain so suddenly?

Thank you.

Thank you, Miss.

Si, it's raining!

Bring Nan Nan inside!

Look! Is it fun?

-Yes. -Hold it.

Nan Nan.

Can Daddy take you home?

Daddy.

I'm not letting you out for work in the rain.

I can get many passengers in the rain.

Be good, Nan Nan.

Let me carry you.

What a good girl.

Nan Nan.

This older sister is praising you!

Say thank you.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

This is for you.

Thanks, but no.

You can have it.

Please don't let my father work in the rain, miss.

Make him keep me company at home.

Don't be alarmed.

We never go home on time as rickshaw pullers.

My child misses me everyday.

There was once when she

followed me for a long way at work.

Hold this, little girl.

Thank you.

Good girl.

Eat it.

Can I speak to you?

Are you Si who always take Mr Tang on your rickshaw?

You are...

Police.

A murder happened at the port yesterday.

The victim was Mr Tang.

Mr Tang is dead?

I saw him last night.

Was anything wrong

when you fetched him yesterday night?

Nothing much.

Think about it.

Well, he'd always chat with me

when I fetched him.

But last night...

He seemed depressed about something

and didn't speak a word.

You're so sure with

a simple tattoo?

But that Gui has plenty of tattoos on him.

It won't be strange

if he had similar ones as Mr Tang.

No.

Those are unique patterns.

It must've been drawn with a same stencil

by the same tattoo artist.

If not, the shape and lines

of the tattoo on them

won't be this exact.

One behind the ear,

and the other covered with other tattoos.

He's trying to hide something.

Do you mean

they know each other?

Hei, Zhu.

-Summon Gui for interrogation. -Okay.

Wait!

Mr Tang's death

may implicate many others.

If we touched Gui,

it might alert them.

How about this?

We'll act separately.

Qin Er and I will look

into Gui's tattoo at the port.

You guys continue looking into his background.

Remember.

That Gui

is not clean.

Alright.

Let's move out!

Let's go.

You'll be rewarded if you obey us.

Report to Sergeant Bai if you refuse to do so.

Yes, sir!

What's good about Master Gui?

He pocketed every penny we earn

all this while.

That's right. Mr Tang's enigmatic death

helped him instead.

Really?

He's at the top now?

What was his background?

Was he strong?

Him?

He was just a beggar in the past.

He fought cruelly and

killed mercilessly.

He got his name with these traits.

Don't spout rubbish.

Be careful.

-So spooky? -Do you think his tattoos were decorative?

It was said that he'd get a tattoo

when he killed someone

from the young tattoo artist

on Dragon Street.

He's really fearless.

If not for your family, Mr Qin,

he would wreck havoc here.

How can you say this to Young Master Yi Heng?

-Let's eat. -Eat!

Let's eat.

Let's eat.

Eat something, Yi Heng.

You don't like it?

I'll eat it then.

Come on, brothers! Let's eat!

Thank you.

Master Gui's rich decorations

and shiny golden dragon

were all made by me.

Officer.

I'm always sensible and

didn't break taboos.

-You're... -Taboos?

-Yes. -There are taboos in tattooing?

Tattoo is exquisite.

The wicked ones can't do it.

It breaks taboos.

One can't tattoo water

with a fire life element.

Those who want love

can't get tattoos for wealth.

I can't finish in one day.

What about leaves?

What's with leaves?

We are forbidden to draw leaves.

I'm sorry.

It's getting late, please leave...

Don't worry.

We don't want a leaf tattoo.

We just want to know

the meaning of a leaf tattoo.

Yours.

Speak.

I don't know why.

But my master said

Changshanzhou's tattoo artists are

not allowed to do leaves.

This was requested by our seniors.

It's unchangeable.

If you're curious,

please go to him.

Where is he?

The forsaken temple at the outskirts.

Let's have a look.

Thank you.

So many amulets.

Misters.

No one would stay

in such a creepy place.

How about this, Xiao Hei?

Look around.

In 30 minutes,

we'll meet at the door.

Be careful, you two.

Oh no.

Something is behind me.

It's me.

Master!

There's nothing here.

Come if you want.

Leave if you want.

May we ask if

you're the grand master

of all tattoo artists in Changshanzhou?

What's so big about tattoos?

What grand master?

You must be the old senior.

We're here

to ask about a taboo.

Why don't the tattoo artists

here draw leaves?

It's a taboo.

I know nothing.

Please leave.

Master.

We're here

to look for you because

a man surnamed Tang

had a mishap.

He died curiously at the port.

He had a leaf tattoo

on his body.

He's dead?

Well done.

But it's late.

Why had the Heaven been as blind as me

all these years?

I have not forgotten anyone

who had leaves as tattoos.

They deserve to die.

Save me some wine!

Don't be nosy like my Cui.

Don't drink if you can't!

He's running away!

Come on!

Why are you here, Master Bai?

Get Gui here.

Master Gui went to the port.

You know, Master Gui

is busy these days.

Why is he busy?

Busy...

Busy about the port.

Sure.

My rotten gun

tends to misfire.

Why is he busy?

I don't know.

I don't know, Master Bai.

Please don't, Master Bai.

I...

Speak!

The thing is,

didn't Mr Tang pass away?

He had some goods due tomorrow.

But it came tonight.

-Yes. -So Master Gui wanted to

pocket it himself.

Notify them at the temple.

Okay.

I'll go, Boss.

It's better.

This candle

was bought last year or the previous year.

When there are guests,

I'll light it up.

After all this time,

the candle hasn't been used up.

I hate them!

Back then,

my skills were above

expectation from all tattoo artists

in Changshanzhou.

It's been over ten years.

One day,

a group of people came

with a completed leaf stencil.

But who knew?

When I was done,

he...

He wasn't human!

He's a devil!

He took a needle

and poked my eyes.

He's a lunatic.

After that experience,

I made up a rule to

all of my disciples.

No one is allowed to draw leaves.

Do you remember the looks of the man

who wanted the tattoo?

Jiang Shuo! Dr Qin!

Xiao Hei! Are you guys here?

Our boss has a request!

-Why are you here? -Xiao Hei.

-Master. -Why are you here?

Don't be scared, he's our friend.

"Shi."

As in persimmons.

-You didn't eat? -Stop!

-Put them down! -Don't move!

Put them down!

Sergeant Bai!

You brought so many men here tonight.

What's the matter?

Scaring me with a gun?

I'll shut you up forever if you speak again.

Move!

-Search! -Back down!

-Squat down! -Squat down!

Don't move! Back down!

Fireworks are forbidden

How was it?

It's all Mr Tang's.

Nothing strange.

Where's Jiang Shuo?

We have other plans.

Onsen

Brother?

Don't wait for me.

Come on.

Come on!

Come on! Next!

-Hurry! -Be careful!

Alright.

Go.

That's it.

Tell our brothers to not

spread word about the goods tonight.

Everyone follow me!

Take everything over there!

Mutton skewers! Mutton skewers!

-Take this. -Thanks!

Look how crowded it is.

Flowers!

So fragrant.

Good.

This is it.

You can leave now.

Yes, Young Master.

Onsen House

You're a new face.

Which route do you run?

I'm asking you.

I just came from the port.

Which port? Who did you notify?

That's right!

I have to notify someone?

Well?

A small gesture.

Is this enough?

Lady Boss.

Did anyone enter this

room before Gui?

It's late.

No one would be here.

There's no one else?

We know your relationship with Gui.

It'll just be you if there was no one else.

No, I didn't!

-I didn't do it! -Who is your witness?

This...

How can I prove myself?

I'm a weak woman!

How would I be able to kill him?

Jiang Shuo.

It's not her.

His neck was broken entirely.

It was the same as Mr Tang.

The same murderer did it.

It was a clean job.

So the murderer must've been trained.

Look at her hands.

There are no muscles on her arm.

She wasn't trained at all.

So she's not the murderer.

That's right.

Mr Tang and Gui

were regulars here.

They came and went everyday

and didn't let our staff approach them.

We can only obey them and

not be busybodies.

How would we know

what happened between them?

It's my fault.

I was too late.

This is our lady boss's room.

But we never came in.

You're not a suspect.

Stand there.

Why are there so many dolls?

Come here, young man.

I have a question.

Who is this little girl

to your lady boss?

She is her daughter.

Daughter?

But I've never seen them together before.

I'm not sure.

I got to know about this by chance.

So your lady boss

is married?

Be honest.

This is about life and death.

I really don't know.

She never tells us about this.

If I hadn't seen her

taking the child out on the streets,

I wouldn't have known.

That means

not many know about their relationship.

I guess Gui and Mr Tang

didn't know as well.

The child must be illegitimate.

Stop your bad mouth!

I've seen this child

somewhere before.
