Episode 19

I already know

how the murderer did it.

Then why did you come back?

The buffet party.

Mr. Lu.

You haven't finished yet.

This piece of your work

is an unparallel masterpiece!

Contemporary European artists

are not even good enough to be your servants.

Picasso and Monet

would kill themselves out of shame

if they saw this picture of you.

You want to kill me with your repulsive ass-kissing.

I am so flattered!

Mr. Lu.

If you don't mind,

pick one of the paintings you like

as my gift for you.

Thanks. But I'll pass.

If you don't mind,

I want to take those with me.

Mr. Lu.

We meet again. Take a seat.

Have you made progress with the case?

Of course.

We already know who the murderer is.

Who is it?

Of course,

it's you.

You're joking with me again, right?

No.

This time

we have enough evidences.

I want to see Inspector Qiao.

Qiao, someone wants to see you.

We checked his statement several times.

It is flawless.

The fact that it's flawless

is the biggest flaw.

What do you mean?

Normally,

a witness of

a crime will fall into an extreme mental confusion

because he was strongly stimulated by the sight of it.

Like the driver that day,

his statement was incoherent.

But this gentleman's statement

had a clear logic with all the details.

He can remember clearly

which he was with a kerosene lamp

when the explosion occurred.

So?

How do you think I can work as a secretary?

I knew you would say that.

OK, let's do an experiment.

Salim!

Please stare at this circle without looking away.

Thirty seconds later,

we'll reveal the answer.

In fact, technically speaking,

the one who really killed Ding Rongxian

was not Xie Zhen,

but a "wraith".

That's bullshit.

This so-called wraith

was not a real ghost.

It was just an illusion that Ding Rongxian saw.

He mistakenly thought that Xie Zhen was Mo Lan.

The two of them are even of different genders.

How could he mistaken them?

If you accept intense mental hints for a long time

plus the hangover,

you would have mistaken him for her.

Time's up.

Now look at his clothes

and tell me what happened.

The red circle turns green!

Yes.

This is the secret of

how Xie Zhen murdered Ding Rongxian.

Afterimage of the complementary color.

When people stare at a certain color

for long enough

and then suddenly look away,

they will see an afterimage of complementary color

because of short-term visual fatigue.

Xie Zhen,

when you went to college,

you must heard of Hering's

opponent-color theory .

I don't know what you're talking about.

Like the surgical gown surgeons wear in an surgery

is an application of the principle of afterimages of complementary color.

The surgeons will stare at the red blood for a long time.

So if they turn around and see a white gown

or the white wall,

they will see green illusions

which will make them unable to concentrate

and thus affect the surgery.

So the light green gown and light green wall

are to eliminate the

visual fatigue caused by

staring at the red blood for a long time.

Mr. Lu.

According to your logic,

anyone who knows this principle

is a suspect of the murder.

But you're the only person

who always followed him

and knew his behavior patterns.

The content of the letters were similar.

You said repeatedly that Mo Lan's death had something to do with Ding Rongxian.

He ruined Mo Lan's life.

You kept intensifying it

and over time

this idea was carved into his subconsciousness.

Next, while Ding Rongxian was drunk,

you prepared everything.

Then Ding Rongxian, who was still in hungover,

decided that he couldn't stand the hate mail anymore.

So following the instruction of the last letter,

he finally decided to meet the writer.

During the climbing inside the pagoda,

all he could see was the color red.

His visual fatigue, hangover,

plus taking quinine for a long time,

together caused his retinal blood vessels to contract.

When he saw you in a white trench coat,

he thought it was

Mo Lan's ghost in green clothes.

In a panic, he slipped off the pagoda.

If I really wanted to impersonate Mo Lan,

I could have just worn green clothes.

Why should I go to the trouble

to create some complementary color?

Because only when human's eyes are looking at complementary colors

will the brain produce a sense of dizziness

which leads to hallucinations.

That was why his last sentence was,

"Mo Lan, are you a human or a ghost?"

It was this sentence that misled

the direction of our investigation.

We found a lot of quinine in your house.

You experimented many times before you did it, right?

Wait!

Quinine is a standing medicine.

Besides,

the driver said

when he heard the sound and ran to under the pagoda,

I was already also under the pagoda.

I would like to ask you all.

Who could go down the pagoda in such a short time?

What if you didn't take the stairs

but descended with a rope?

Like this.

Wrap two strands of rope around the post in parallel.

Pull one strand out when you got down,

then you could quickly retrieve the rope.

Please put your foot on the table.

Why?

Just humor me.

Actually from his walking posture

and that fact that he often wears hiking shoes,

I can tell he is a rock climbing enthusiast.

And for a veteran climber, it's not so difficult to

get off the pagoda in seconds

with a rope, right?

These are just your guesses.

You are framing me!

Let me tell you,

if you want to convict me,

come up with tangible evidence.

Evidence…

I haven't found any yet.

I just like to see your anxious look.

Let's welcome Mr. Salim.

You wore this hat when you committed the murder.

It was also the same style that Mo Lan often wore.

It is very special

and they didn't produce hat of this style anymore.

You drew a picture and custom-made it with a tailor.

Salim found your order record.

I have a close lady friend.

I wanted to give her as a birthday gift.

Fine.

Let's look at the second evidence.

This is the order record of the paint shop.

The clerk still remembered your look.

We drew a simulated portrait

according to his description.

Does it look like you?

I ordered the paint to paint my living room.

Then we will know if you painted it or not

when we go to your house.

I was going to.

But when I got home

I thought the color of the paint was too bright.

So I dumped it into the sewer.

As you know,

there was a heavy rain the other day.

I think all the paint was flushed away.

OK, let's look at the third evidence.

We found this on the

desk in your study.

Guess after I smear this,

what will appear?

"Six o'clock tomorrow morning.

Under the Yuning Pagoda.

Be there or be square."

Ok. I admit it.

I did write the letter.

But I just wanted to scare him.

I didn't really kill him.

Mr. Xie, come on.

I solved so many big cases.

You are definitely the most obstinate one.

The fourth evidence…

There isn't one.

I got it.

We found this rope in the wood

under the Yuning Pagoda.

You were too fast descending,

so you abraded your hand.

You remember

we shook hands that day, right?

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Are you OK?

We will know how you got the injury when we examine it.

Your blood is still on the rope.

Don't tell me you were practicing rock climbing.

Do you have any other excuses?

Because I still have evidence No. 5, 6, 7, 8.

Have you figured out how you are going to refute them?

What made you suspect me?

That day I asked Salim to put you to torture.

Normal innocent people by that moment

would ask for mercy

and get very frightened.

You might have even told me

who your uncle was on the spot.

But you said nothing.

Because before you came to the station

you had thought of

all the possibilities what might happen and your responses.

You knew that

I couldn't detain you for too long without solid evidence.

Also in the following statements

you behaved abnormally calmly.

But this calmness

was so suspicious.

I am too smart for my own good.

But a really smart criminal

will not leave so many evidences behind.

Xie Zhen.

Why did you kill him?

Do I need a reason to kill this kind of villain?

Who do you want to avenge for?

Xu Xiaoya or Mo Lan?

Revenge?

You think of me as a small-minded man.

As long as Ding Rongxian

was still at Shuren Middle school,

there would be no peace in it.

When I was still a student there,

Shuren Middle School had a rigorous style of study.

Over the years its alumni

had gain reputations all over the country

with their talent and ability.

But after Ding Rongxian became the vice principal,

he befriended with rich or powerful parents

and sold enrollment quotas in a high price.

How many poor students who studied hard

didn't get to study there because some people took their quota?

Just in a few months

this prestigious schools became

the base camp of rich profligate kids.

You have never been a teacher.

You wouldn't understand my pain and despair.

You killed just for this reason?

After the stampede incident,

Ding Rongxian colluded with the gangsters

to entice and intimidate all the people in the know.

Those innocent children were forced to lie.

Think about it,

children at this age

were forced to do such a dirty thing.

The traumas in their hearts

will never heal.

The function of a school is

to cultivate talents for the country.

I killed an evil for the school.

I will die without regret.

If he didn't do it,

he would have been a good teacher.

What's wrong?

He will die without regret for a just cause.

What am I supposed to tell his uncle?

Uncle Xuan, it's been a long time.

Chusheng.

No, Inspector Qiao. How are you?

I heard that you have solved many strange cases recently

and become a star in Shanghai.

That was because I got help and support from you seniors,

otherwise I wouldn't have made any progress.

Xie Zhen was my nephew.

How can you arrest him?

He killed someone,

and the evidences are irrefutable.

He killed a beast!

This is called enforcing justice for Heaven!

And you guys are helping the evil!

This case was solved by Lu Yao.

Hand him over

and we won't do anything to you.

Lu Yao is a consultant.

I am the inspector.

And he just did what I told him to.

Uncle Xuan.

As a junior,

I'll apologize to you.

He is dead!

You think your petty injury can make it even?

I cut myself

to show my respect

to you as my junior.

But this is my job

as the inspector of the police station.

I have a clear conscience in this.

Although Xie Zhen meant well,

he killed someone after all.

Even if I wanted to release him,

the Municipal Council wouldn't have agreed.

If you still can't let go,

bring it on,

I

will definitely wait for what you got.

That's enough.

Qiao Chusheng.

You have made yourself an enemy.

Think about

how you're going to pay your price.

Goodbye.

This is efficient.

Twenty workers worked round the clock.

How much did it cost?

I guess it cost a lot.

It's okay. I will deduct it from his consulting fee in the future.

Why?

I didn't set the house on fire!

Why should I pay the bill?

And you told us

you would pay for the decoration.

I did pay for the decoration.

But at least you need to pay for the furniture.

Sofa, rug, cabinet.

Everything is new.

How much is it?

See for yourself.

You set the house on fire.

Why should I pay for it?

Don't you sit on the sofa?

OK, I'll pay for the sofa. Don't ever sit on it.

Stand up!

Fine! Like I care!

My cushions were from France.

Pay me for the damages!

Get up.

Give me money for them!

Get up!

Not until you pay my damage!

Pay me!

-You won't get up? -Pay me!

Talk things over. Don't be physical.

You asked me to pay you?

Isn't the apartment shared by the two of us?

You asked me to pay you?

How can a man be

so irresponsible?

Let me ask you,

aren't we both living in this house?

Huh?

You asked me to pay you for the damage?

Zhiqing?

Get out.

Out!

Buddy! It's been a long time.

It's really been a long time.

Take a seat.

But she…

Ignore her.

She has a problem in her head.

This house is quite spacious.

You are quite well off.

You call this house spacious?

This house is probably the size

of the servants' room in your house.

When did you come back?

I just disembarked.

I heard you went to Guangzhou to work for Mr. Sun Yat-sen.

You are quite informed.

How is my sis?

Very busy.

I barely see her.

She just came back from Tokyo before I came to Shanghai.

She asked me to bring this gift to you.

Did you come here

for a business trip?

I'm here to take you with me.

Take me where?

Guangzhou.

Mr. Bai.

Chusheng, you're here.

Did they both move back to the apartment?

We finished redecorating. They just moved back.

Did you find out what caused the fire?

No trace of artificial arson.

I think Youning accidentally set it on fire.

These two kids

can't take good care of themselves.

You need to look out for them.

Don't worry.

There's one more thing.

I met Jiang Zhiqing

when I just got out of their apartment.

The one in Huang School?

Keep an eye on him

to see what he wants.

My daughter and her future husband

can't be fooled by this kind of person.

This is a ferry ticket to Guangzhou.

Don't tease me, Zhiqing.

I am perfectly happy with my life in Shanghai.

I don't want to move at all.

China has reached a critical moment.

She's threatened by powerful neighboring countries and domestic warlords.

A large-scale war is bound to happen in a few years.

So what?

You either kill others

or are killed by others.

We plan to set up a school in Guangzhou

to train military talents

for China.

As a talented Cambridge alumnus,

it's your job to pass on your knowledges to them.

But I studied mathematics and medicine.

I know nothing about the war.

But war also needs medics.

The key is

I don't want to fight.

No one wants to fight.

But if you don't fight back,

China will be parceled by the powers

and reduced to a new colony.

This Concession was originally China's territory.

But now?

Foreigners tyrannize

while the Chinese people are struggling.

Even if you don't do it for yourself, you should…

I'm a complete

egoist,.

Everything I do,

I do it for myself.

With your qualifications, talents and education background,

you will have a bright future if you join the revolution.

But I'm quite satisfied with my life now.

I am too lazy to step out of the comfort zone.

Do you want

your father to look down on you for your whole life?

You don't need to give me an answer now.

Think about it

in the next few days.

Whether you're going or not,

I support your decision.

What's wrong?

My mentor died.

How?

Murder.

What's going on?

Last night in the newspaper office,

the doorman heard the phone ring.

Why would you have to

call when I was peeing?

Hello?

Hello?

Help me!

He is back…

Mr. He?

Mr. He?

Mr. He!

Are you in there?

Mr. He?

This is what happened.

Silly Lu.

The editor of Xinyue Daily was my mentor.

He taught me how to write news step by step.

And yet you are still a lousy reporter.

Then I don't think he was any good…

It doesn't matter if you despise me.

But I won't allow you to say bad things about him!

Fine. I'll stop.

Are you hungry?

Let me fry an egg for you.

I don't want to.

You and he were quite close.

It was more than that.

In a sense

he

was more like a father to me in the spiritual sense.

Alright.

Humans are mortal.

Some die for a noble cause

while some don't…

What took you so long?

Snot was all over my clothes.

So I had to get changed.

What happened to you?

Her eyes were swollen from crying.

Is it that serious for her?

The victim was her father,

in a spiritual sense.

If Mr. Bai heard it…

Hurry up and enter from here.

Why can't we enter from the main entrance?

You'll know when you go in there.

It's locked.

Move.

Let me help you.

I am a grown up and I don't need your…

Don't stand there. Get to work!

This office is so messy.

The newspaper gave him a new office.

Today

was supposed to be the day he moved.

That's why he stayed after work last night to pack.

This room was usually very neat.

Another locked room murder.

The murderers are so funny.

Why can't they keep it simple?

Why do they have to be a formalist?

What did the doorman say?

He said Mr. He just said, "He's back, help me."

That's it.

There are words written on this newspaper.

Three thousand Mausers?

Enough to equip a reinforced company.

This is amazing.

Amazing how?

Limited edition of Parker pen,

a brand with Britain's Royal Warrant.

What now?

Mr. He always

used this pen to write articles.

He loved it and didn't allow anyone to touch it.

Youning.

Don't take it so hard.

He is dead and this is an unchangeable truth.

Everything will go away.

What are you looking for?

The cap.

Silly Lu! Don't go too far!

What did I do?

You want to find the pen cap

to get yourself a whole pen!

Don't forget that this is a murder weapon!

Come on! There's a pen and no cap.

This is the suspicious part of this case!

Don't disturb our investigation.

Your editor was surnamed He.

Yes.

He used to work at Shanghai News.

How do you know that?

"Wicked woman who murdered her husband

is finally executed today".

This news release was written by Mr. He.

It was a sensation news back then.

The newspapers were put away by Mr. He.

So this newspaper with blood

was left here by the murderer intentionally

for us to see it.

So it means…

Mr. He, sorry, sorry!

Why should you feel sorry?

Because she thought of a title for her story.

"Evil ghost seeks her revenge".

Occupational habit.

Sorry, sorry.

Is it possible that the victim left the newspaper on his desk?

Not quite likely.

With such a serious penetrating injury to the neck,

he wouldn't be able to write so neatly.

Take the newspaper back to the station to examine the finger prints.

No.

Look at the date of the newspaper.

April 14.

Yesterday was also April 14.

Yes.

Yesterday was the tenth anniversary

that "wicked woman" was executed.

In other words,

yesterday was her tenth death anniversary.

Do you think this case sounds very familiar?

No.

You forgot.

Locked room, violent death,

and someone who died ten years ago held a grudge against the victim.

Isn't it exactly the same with

the executioner seeking revenge case?

A copycat?

Copy what?

A copycat case.

You even take photos of your dead mentor?

If…

If he is watching us from heaven,

he will definitely hope that I filmed him.

This is my duty as a reporter.

Youning.

The editor is dead.

I know.

What do you plan to do in the future?

Keep working here,

of course.

I heard

Tong Li wants to go back to Ta Kung Pao.

That's her choice, not mine.

It's none of my business.

She is our head reporter.

I thought you are the head reporter?

Go away.

The editor is dead. Now if Tong Li leaves,

our newspaper will not survive for too long.

You…

Miss Bai.

Miss Tong.

Do you have any plans for the future?

Is she your type?

I will stay with Xinyue Daily.

Anyone who want to leave at this moment

are traitors.

It's a pity then.

I wanted to invite you

to work for Ta Kung Pao together.

Well…

They still need a typist.

You!

But if Miss Bai is not interested,

forget what I said.

Take care.

See you on the newspapers.

She is the murderer!

Motive?

Jealousy!

Who is she jealous of?

Me.

She saw that the editor liked me more,

so hatred took possession of her soul

and she killed him!

Miss Tong.

Yesterday Mr. He asked me to

bring some mango

and aged Pu'er and Dahongpao tea from Guangzhou for you.

You can put them here.

Okay.

Thank you.

Mr. He asked me to give you this.

Let's go.

I'm hungry.

Then starve to death.

My brain won't work with low blood sugar.

I won't be able to solve this case.

Then don't do it.

That was your spiritual father.

Used to be.

Now he had nothing to do with me!

Are you so heartless?

I don't understand.

His letter rejecting my article is longer than the article.

He had suggestions on revision basically word for word.

He could even find problems in my punctuation marks.

How much did he dislike me?

Tell me,

am I really that bad?

If he didn't like you,

he wouldn't have written in length.

When the teacher still gives advice to the students,

it means he has faith in them.

Really?

Really.

Although your writing skills are just OK,

you are serious about your job.

And your subject matter is very sensitive.

This is your advantage

that no one else has.

He used to say the same thing!

OK, alright.

Don't cry.

You will flood our house if you keep crying.

Who's crying?

I'll stop. Let's get down to business.

I think

this murderer is related to

the singer's case ten years ago.

Tell me.

There was a singer named Ye Ying

who was a hit for a time.

In order to elope with her lover,

she did not hesitate to murder her husband and her daughter.

The case was very sensational.

Ten years ago,

one night Ye Ying's husband died from

carbon monoxide poisoning at home.

Their nine-year-old daughter fell into a coma.

At first people thought it was an accident.

But then the police found residue of sleeping pill

in the glass at the scene of the crime.

The investigation found that

Ye Ying had a habit of taking sleeping pills.

At the same time, many witnesses testify that

she and her husband did not get along.

Ye Ying and her lover were still in touch.

Public opinion was in uproar.

Everyone said she

murdered her husband and daughter to be with her lover.

But since there was no evidence,

Ye Ying refused to plead guilty.

The editor Mr. He,

who was just a newcomer in journalism back then,

dug deep in the case trying to restore the truth.

Several special reports were published on the newspaper in succession

in which many unknown stories of

Ye Ying's private lives were successively exposed.

Mr. He's reports were

read in court as secondary evidence.

Ye Ying finally could not bear the pressure

and was forced to plead guilty.

She was executed.

What about her daughter?

She went to live with a relative abroad.

Now she has just grown up

enough to seek revenge for her mother.

Her daughter has been abroad.

She's now the hostess of a famous salon

in the art cycle.

She's pretty.

I asked my friend to ask around.

In recent months

she's been busy with a Gauguin's exhibition.

She didn't return to China.

You are more efficient than Qiao.

What else do you want me to investigate?

Find all the articles

your editor wrote about this case

ten years ago.

Don't you have dyslexia?

I will lie down, and you can read it to me.

Where are you going?

Find a quiet place to think.

Found any lead?

It takes time.

Is Youning feeling better?

I think

she has entered menopause early.

This is a special period for her.

Let her have her way.

I'll try my best.

She's such a drama queen now.

Come on! Go looking for

whether the editor had any enemies.

I am. But it takes time.

He said on the last phone call,

"He's back"

which indicates he knew the murderer.

The newspaper left at the scene of the crime

also sent a clear message that

the murderer knew the victim

and it must be related to the case ten years ago.

The murderer must be someone in his life.

Alright.

Then you should find Youning to ask her for information.

Don't go!

If I stay,

I'll have to pay again.

Freeze!

Where are you going?

I am uncomfortable seeing people crying.

I'll come over when she's not upset.

Sit down and listen. She's about to onto something.

When I just started to work for the newspaper,

Mr. He was responsible for my train.

Once

I wrote a

news which didn't meet news' requirement.

I was called into his office.

Youning,

as a reporter,

the most important and the most difficult thing is to

balance between the objective facts

and the expression of your personal opinions.

The reporter's own opinion is not important by itself.

But when they make a statement on the newspaper,

their opinion and attitude

will become the opinion and attitude of the newspaper.

Then their words will have the power to shake the society…

Got it, I will rewrite it.

Take this.

At that time, Mr. He gave me a copy of

Mr. Huang Yuansheng's book about journalism.

But I didn't expect…

The trick of telling a good crosstalk...

Bear with her a little more.

You, go on.

Mr. He had always been my role model

in my study and life.

I would read and study

his every report carefully.

The singer's case was his first

special report of great success.

It also brought me endless enlightenment.

So you become a sensational headline writer.

You know nothing!

The first rule of journalism advocated by Mr. Huang Yuansheng

is being bold.

The second rule is honesty without lies.

You are bold. That's for sure.

Ouch!

Don't hurt him, we still need him now.

Stop, stop.

It hurts!

I'm in a bad mood now.

You'd better not mess with me.

I have read the autopsy report.

He died of excessive blood loss

after the carotid artery was punctured.

I also asked people around him.

They said he was gentle and kind,

and unlikely to make any enemies.

That must be revenge of wraith!

There, I said the title for you.

This time,

I will never use such a cliché title again.

OK,

Let's wait and see

Chusheng.

You just said that Mr. He has no enemies.

This is impossible.

Why?

One of the jobs of a journalist is to

expose the inside story of something evil.

How could he be friends with everyone?

Let 's just talk about this singer murder case.

There was an innocent victim.

Who?

Chu Ming.

His father was a flour tycoon.

At that time, Chu Ming was a famous eligible bachelor.

Ye Ying became famous at the age of sixteen.

Chu Ming once pursued her frantically.

But then she married someone else

and immediately retired from her entertaining career.

Years later

Ye Ying returned to the entertainment industry.

Chu Ming pursued her again.

After Ye Ying's murder of her husband became hot news,

Chu Ming was reported as Ye Ying's accomplice.

He couldn't stand the pressure of public opinion

so he disappeared from people's sight.

Because of this case,

the reputation of the Chu family was severely damaged.

Their flour business also plummeted.

If you were him,

you would have hated Mr. He, too.

How is the Chu family now?

Not as rich as they used to be, but still richer than most people.

Should we pay them a visit?
