MY ROOMMATE IS A DETECTIVE

♔ Follow @skysoultan on Instagram ♔ Episode 30

Please come in.

It's good to be rich.

Italian handmade red leather boots.

This is the only pair in Shanghai.

You can wear them if you like them so much.

I would if you give them to me for free.

Knock it off.

Help yourselves for anything.

All the servants went out to prepare for the funeral.

Sorry if I don't entertain you guys well.

Please sit down. I'll put the kettle on.

Don't bother.

What's so interesting on the newspaper?

What else should I read then?

Since we are here,

look for clues!

I am not in the mood to do that.

What's wrong with you today?

I get annoyed when I see her.

My brain is a mess.

You should take things as they come.

Besides, she said she has evidence,

so we can't neglect this.

If she really has any valuable clue,

why would she dare to let us come into her house?

She's not afraid she might be killed by you?

I don't think he's capable of

killing an innocent woman.

How do you know that?

Mr. Qiao Chusheng is a famous character in Shanghai.

He got to where he is today by his righteousness,

not by his cruelness.

She understands me.

She just kisses your ass to make you happy.

My sister often told me about how you solved cases.

I also know

all the other dirty cops in Shanghai .

I came to find you because I believe

you have a bottom line which you won't cross.

The weather has been humid recently. The match won't kindle.

Go and take a look.

What for?

I'm afraid she might poison us both.

Then you go, I don't want to talk to her.

So you are afraid of her?

Don't challenge me with ridicule.

I am telling you, I won't do it.

This method won't work on me.

What's wrong? You're afraid I might poison you?

Yes indeed.

You did nothing wrong.

Why should I poison you?

Because you feel guilty?

Not at all.

When I'm with you, I never cheated on you.

It doesn't matter anymore. It's been so many years.

I have forgiven and forgotten.

You are still so rude.

It takes my brain to investigate the case,

not politeness.

What are you looking for anyway?

Just look around casually.

Do you think

you can upset me this way?

Yes.

You're such a child.

A child?

You know how many big cases I have been solved

in shanghai?

I do!

I know everything about you.

I couldn't buy Shanghai newspapers in the UK.

Every piece of newspaper here

was mailed to me by my sister because I asked her.

Every time I saw your news,

I was truly happy for you.

We had a lot of personality clashes.

I can understand that you hate me.

But don't let that hatred

hinder your future life.

We just received an insider report

Inspector Qiao and Lu Yao went to Zou Ying's home.

I'm worried about what they're investigating.

Did anything happen with Mr. Bai?

After the bombing, he has been at home.

Seems like actions are brewing.

How many gunmen you have?

In Shanghai? Less than thirty.

Prepare them for war now. Get them ready.

Right.

Please.

Give me the evidence.

I can give you the evidence.

But how can I be sure

that you won't destroy the evidence after you get it?

To be honest, I can't guarantee that.

Then why should I give it to you?

You should be clear about my relationship with Mr. Bai.

I won't do anything

that's against his interests.

But if someone really wants to kill you to silence you,

I can give you a day to escape.

I can't take your word for it.

Then I will be completely honest with you.

If Mr. Bai really was behind this,

even if I try my best, all I can do is saving your life.

I can't guarantee anything else to you.

So my sister would die in vain.

She's family of the deceased no matter what.

Don't hurt her feelings so hard.

Although Mr. Bai is a gangster,

he never overkilled.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have the position and reputation he has today.

Youning's mother kept a Beijing Opera singer as her lover

which became a big scandal.

Mr. Bai just broke one leg of that lover and

expelled him from Shanghai. He didn't even kill him.

Not to mention Zou Ying

who used to date Mr. Bai.

As the saying goes, "One night of love is worth a hundred of friendship".

Also if he wanted to murder her,

I would definitely hear something.

I personally guarantee that

we will do our best to investigate this case.

If we really hit any powerful obstacle,

we will also inform you.

When the time comes, fight or flight

is up to you.

Okay, that's what I want to hear.

This is my sister's account book.

From important matters to her companies' operation to

trivial personal spending are all in there.

You can take it back and study.

Then you'll know why Mr. Bai

had the motive to kill my sister.

Thank you.

Thank me for what?

Your trust.

Do I have another choice?

My bridge has been burned.

My life is in your hands now.

Goodbye.

Yes, I used to love you.

That's what I want to ask you.

What do you want to ask me?

When you were separated from Keynes,

why did you cry?

Is this important?

It is to me.

You were so strong.

I never saw you during the many days we were dating.

Why did you cry when you said goodbye to him?

I never figured it out

during the next years.

I will give you the answer

after you solve this case.

What's wrong with your hand?

Do the accounts.

Have you calculated any result?

There were just seven people in their family.

But they spent 20 silver dollars to buy staple food last month alone.

What? Are they pigs?

Can you put your personal grudges aside

and get down to business?

In the last four and a half years,

her sister was in close contact with Mr. Bai.

The annual contract value of transactions was huge.

But everything suddenly stopped from March or April this year

March or April?

What happened in March?

These accounts have a certain curve.

What curve?

As a shareholder in her girls' school, restaurant, pharmaceutical factory,

Mr. Bai could get dividends.

But since July and August last year,

her restaurant's profits had dropped significantly.

That girls' school even came to the point that

it's losing money.

But at the same time, the profits of her pharmaceutical company had increased significantly.

What do you think this means?

That's impossible.

The Fuli Restaurant she owned is fully booked every day.

How could it lose money?

There are two possible reasons.

First one is she tried to evade taxes.

The second situation is that she did business to customers on credit;

and then she couldn't collect the money.

Is it possible that she cooked the book

which Mr. Bai found out and the two fell out?

Since she just wanted to lie about how much she earned,

why would that pharmaceutical factory still make a profit?

And Mr. Bai liked her.

He doesn't care about this petty money.

You have a point.

This pharmaceutical factory only exported products, never imported.

The raw material purchase cost is extremely low,

while the sales profit is exceptionally high.

Their largest expense cost is shipping.

Isn't this weird?

How about this?

Take Adou to the pharmaceutical factory to do some digging.

I'll go back to meet Mr. Bai.

Can you manage?

If this matter is really related to Mr. Bai,

worst case scenario, I will just resign.

Come in, don't hide in there.

I just got the test report.

On that bullet

there are Liuzi's fingerprints.

OK, got it.

I'll go home with you to meet my dad.

Don't.

You and your dad might get into a quarrel again.

If you have nothing to do,

go to the factory with Silly Lu.

But I'm afraid you can't deal with him.

You might need to worry about him more.

Just now when we were in Zou's home,

the two almost rekindled their long lost love.

Hey, how can you make things up?

You'll wait and see!

When I come back

I'll settle the old scores with you!

Freeze! Are you feeling guilty?

Tell me everything that happened!

Silly Lu!

Master, Young Master Chu Sheng is here.

Got it.

Mr. Bai.

You are here.

We're investigating the bombing in the dance hall.

How is it going?

We have a clue.

Silly Lu and I went to Zou's house.

Her sister gave me this.

He felt strange after he checked the account book.

So he let me ask you.

It's all my business matters.

It's not your business.

Leave it alone.

Zou Ying is dead.

We must track all relevant clues.

And you guys track down to me?

I will ask you one question.

Does the bombing have anything

to do with you?

Do you know what you're talking about?

Last night

Youning saw Liuzi and

several people in the gang outside the ballroom.

After they found Youning,

they dragged Youning into the car and took her home after they

told her

something would happen that night.

You sent them, right?

Yes.

And after the bombing

Zou Ying's sister Zou Jing

saw Liuzi taking people to take photos at the scene.

They left just in time after being found.

Is what she said?

true?

Yes.

Then why…

Why did I kill Zou Ying?

Is this the question you want to ask me?

Yes.

You have followed me since you were very young.

Please dig in your memory,

did I ever kill a person who didn't deserve to die?

So,

what did Zou Ying do wrong?

As the saying goes,

"One night of love is worth a hundred of friendship".

After all, I liked her.

No matter what Zou Ying did wrong,

I would never kill her, and I really didn't.

It's just I didn't expect

she would do such a thing

for money.

You still love her, right?

Can you ask a serious question?

How much do you think

my dad is involved in this bombing?

You mean he would kill someone,

who everyone knows is his ex-lover,

in front of all the celebrities in Shanghai, by bombing her into pieces?

He couldn't be able to survive in the underworld.

He won't do such a thing to destroy his own career.

It seems that you

don't know his character quite well.

My dad

is a good boss to his gang members.

He is sentimental, loyal and keeps his promises.

Unfortunately, he is not a good father.

All the way I grew up,

he was almost always absent

in every important moment of my life.

Come here!

What's going on?

Thompson

submachine gun Made in the USA.

How do you know that?

Are you deaf?

Oh boy. Their firepower is too strong.

What shall we do?

Waiting to die.

You still make jokes at such a moment?

I wasn't joking.

They have submachine guns,

a lot of them.

We only have a Colt

and the man with it is down.

You can't go!

Let go of me!

Don't be afraid.

Even if you die,

you still have me with you.

I'm not afraid of death.

I'm afraid you will die in front of my eyes.

I don't want to die by crying alone.

Let me ask you something.

Do you have a crush on me?

You wish!

Who threw the grenade!

Enfield!

Who?

It's a British sniper rifle.

Listen.

The sound of the sniper rifle seems to be getting smaller.

They only have pistols now.

So…we

we don't have to die!

You must be freaked out. Did you wet your pants?

Go away!

Liuzi, why are you here?

You have the nerve to ask why I am here.

I came to save you guys.

How did you know we will be in danger?

Did you follow me?

Let…let's talk about it when we get out.

what are you doing?

There is a secret room inside.

how do you know that?

Look at the direction of the smoke.

I knew it.

What is this?

Heroin.

Zou Ying purified heroin from opium,

and shipped them to Hong Kong

where they would be sold abroad.

No wonder this pharmaceutical factory is so profitable.

How did you know?

I have read the account book of this pharmaceutical factory.

Raw material purchase cost is extremely low

with an unusual high sales profit

and the biggest cost is in shipping.

But this factory claimed to the public that

they mainly produced Bronin, a cough medicine.

The biggest distributor of this medicine is in Shanghai.

So they wouldn't have needed shipping at all.

Does my father know about this?

This…

you might need to ask him.

Zou Ying used to do business with Mr. Bai.

But because of poor cost saving and management,

the school and restaurant she invested still lost money.

To make up for the shortfall

she started making and dealing drugs.

Mr. Bai found out and

decided to take action against her.

So my dad sent you to kill her?

How is that possible?

Then what were you doing that night?

I was taking a walk.

Like…Like I told you yesterday.

If you keep lying to me,

I will write a report with

your photo in the newspaper.

I'll see how you can continue to do your job by then.

Lady…You

You're not afraid you might get Mr. Bai into trouble?

I'm afraid…

I'm really so scared.

Believe me, she is capable of doing anything.

Just tell her what really happened.

No, come on.

You know how Mr. Bai is like.

He hates drug trafficking most in his life.

Since this pharmaceutical factory suddenly started to make money

and got more and more profitable.

He sensed something was wrong

so he asked me to investigate.

After knowing the truth,

he asked Zou Ying to come over

and warned her

she should stop this evil deed.

You know,

I sent her a bullet in an envelope.

That scared her.

Later, I don't know

who introduced her to work with Mr. Huang.

Right,

Mr. Huang was also the middleman for her business in Hong Kong.

Mr. Bai was furious

when he found out.

Wasn't it her dance hall's opening ceremony yesterday?

Mr. Bai asked me to bring some homies

to give her a few funeral wreaths at the party.

Funeral wreath?

Why?

To send a message to all celebrities in Shanghai that

Mr. Bai was breaking off all relations with her.

But before we could take the wreaths out,

with a blast, the place exploded.

I hurried to tell Mr. Bai.

Mr. Bai said

whoever was capable of making such an event

in the Concession's territory

must be someone very powerful and resourceful.

I'm afraid they might damage the scene.

I couldn't find Chusheng in the chaos

so I got a unit to take photos so that

we could save first-hand evidence.

Why didn't you say it earlier?

I was worried about nothing!

My dear lady.

All forces have gotten involved in this matter.

Your father doesn't want you two to get involved.

But we are already involved.

Yes, you are involved.

But it's not too late to quit now.

Lady.

Do you want to quit?

What do you think?

Now I just want to know

if your ugly, disgusting and nagging ex-girlfriend

knows anything about it.

Qiao Chusheng, are you crazy?

Who sent you?

Mr. Huang

I used to respect you as my senior

so I had been very polite to you.

But this time you really crossed the line.

What do you mean?

what did I do?

Lu Yao is like my brother

and Youning is like a sister to me.

They are the closest people

to me in this world.

If you dare to touch them,

I will kill you even if I have to die too.

I watched Youning grow up.

Her father and I even arranged she and my son's marriage.

But Youning didn't like my son

so they didn't really get married.

How would I want to kill Youning?

Besides, her father and I go way back.

Our relationship is closer than real brothers.

I wouldn't…

You know exactly what you did.

I'm a humble low life.

But you know what the consequences will be

if you challenge my limit.

This time I will spare your life.

If I have to come here next time

I'll kill your whole family.

This is my first

and the last warning.

Think about it.

Mr. Bai.

There was a firefight just now at the pharmaceutical factory.

Youning and Lu Yao were also on the scene.

Are they okay?

They're fine. Liuzi and his men went to save them.

But everyone guarding the factory was dead.

There is no witness alive.

Also we found at the scene

lots of cash and heroin.

They have been handed over to the evidence room for safekeeping.

Huang Heshang suffered losses while he couldn't tell anyone.

He will definitely come to make trouble.

If he dares to come,

I will kill him.

Remember your status now.

Your subordinates will look down on you

if you keep saying you want to kill someone.

Mr. Bai, the thought of that firefight terrified me.

What if Liuzi didn't arrive there in time…

The consequences are unbearable.

If anything happened to the two of them

I will kill Huang!

Huang is just a greedy businessman, he is not the main threat.

What I fear most now is

those desperadoes we don't know yet.

You mean there were other parties involved in the bombing?

What do you think?

Zou Ying was a cash cow for him.

Huang would do everything to protect her.

How could he kill her?

The bombing

must be done by their competitors.

But there are many drug dealers in Shanghai.

A lot of opium dealers.

Very few are dealing with heroin.

I always feel that there

is shadow of those British people behind this.

Then shall we continue to investigate?

Of course!

Zou Ying is dead.

Just now even you thought I did it.

I really don't want to be

a scapegoat

Understood.

Coming!

Chusheng

Are you OK?

Don't worry. I am blessed and lucky.

I can shower in flying bullets without a scratch.

Where's Silly Lu?

Out.

What?

He's out.

Where did he go?

To the crime scene.

You let him out at this late hour?

One firefight a day is not enough for you guys, right?

I couldn't stop him if he insisted.

Besides, Liuzi is with him. He'll be fine.

Listen to me carefully.

Now is an emergency period.

Don't go out unless you really have to.

Stay home, understand?

Got it, got it!

Why should we come at night?

We can't see anything.

Didn't you say it yourself?

Someone might manipulate the scene.

We have to hurry up.

What if they already did?

I don't think so.

How do you know?

I've seen the photos you guys took.

There is no difference from the scene now.

At least so far

I haven't seen any trace of the scene being touched.

What are you smelling?

Explosive. Different types of explosives

have different smells after fully burnt.

You have a dog's nose.

You can also tell the bomb models by the smell.

Then what kind of explosive is this?

The thing is, I don't know.

Common explosives

all contain sulfur.

It would smell pungent after it explodes.

But I have been here so long

but expect for the burning smell,

I didn't smell anything.

Is it possible that it was a new type of explosive?

The French invented a liquid explosive

which is colorless and tasteless but very powerful.

French?

Mr. Du knows better than us

things in the French Concession.

Should I send someone to get some information.

Not need, yet.

Yet…

The center of the explosion is this stage.

If I were the murderer,

I would choose to bury the explosives under the floor of the stage.

But from the traces of the scene,

the explosion happened from the top down.

This is very strange.

What is this?

Probably a mechanic part on the stage, right?

Take it back for testing.

Why this particularly?

All the fragments of the scene

were progressively spread out

with the dance floor as the center.

Only this part

is not consistent with the direction of the air blast during the explosion.

It means someone touched it after the explosion.

But maybe some of our people accidentally moved it

when we were taking the pictures that day?

Look.

There are several cylinders of this kind.

Those ones over there,

their inner walls are blackened by fire.

Only this one's inner wall is smooth and bright,

without any burn marks.

What does that mean?

Someone wiped it clean.

Someone came back to the scene after the explosion

and wiped traces that might be evidences.

If that's true,

there were a lot of people here that day.

Forensic, petrol officers,

including firefighters. At least dozens of them.

How many people did you call to take photos that day?

Three.

Call them back.

I want to ask them questions one by one.

OK.

Someone's coming! Come on!

It is you.

Why? You wanted to hit me with that?

Why didn't you say it was you?

Fortunately, I showed some mercy,

or you might.

Try to hit me.

Calm down.

I have a general idea

how this bombing was pulled off.

Mr. Norman,

the factory has fallen, and all the staff were gone.

What?

Fortunately, the technicians were

notified ahead of time and they hided up.

We can move somewhere else and continue production.

Those people are not going to listen to us.

They were listening to Zou Ying the whole time.

Zou Ying has a younger sister.

Cambridge graduate of economics.

As long as the price is right,

She should cooperate.

How is Mr. Huang?

You think for a woman

he is gonna betray us?

Smoke less opium since you have such a serious cough.

It might kill you.

You have the nerve to come to me.

Why wouldn't I?

I had shares in that pharmaceutical factory.

I lost more money than you now that it was all gone now.

What is wrong with you?

Why didn't want to make money?

I don't do business

that'll make my conscience stir.

Then don't stop others from doing business.

Heshang, we two have been best friends from childhood.

You know me well.

I will never have anything to do with drugs.

So don't make it hard for me

when it comes to certain matter.

I actually don't mind.

If you don't do it, there are others I can work with.

But can you afford to offend the British people?

As for that firefight at the pharmaceutical factory,

the gunmen were not mine.

Got it.

So, we are still best buddies.

Bao, I know you are kind and ambitious.

But this is in the Concession with the foreigner's rules.

You don't care,

but you have to consider for your daughter and son-in-law.

Got it?

Don't make any more trouble.

Are you threatening me?

Consider it a kind reminder.

The British showed you some respect.

They just did some small actions behind your back.

But if you mess up with them,

they will bring out the big guns.

Bring it on.

If they push me too hard, I will burn my boats to fight back.

No one can get away intact!

Why are you reading old newspapers,

not to mention English ones.

No reason.

What are you looking for?

Recruitment ad

of foreign companies and financial institutions.

You want to quit this job again.

The British people want to kick me out.

I have to plan ahead.

Otherwise, I won't be able to afford the rent.

I received an insider report last night that

one week before the explosion,

Zou Ying and Zou Jing

had a big quarrel.

Why?

My informant said

Zou Ying wanted Zou Jing to marry Mr. Huang as his concubine.

The argument was heating

and they almost ended up into a real fight.

So this is the motive.

What did you say?

Zou Jing

is the culprit of the bombing.

Really?

Don't tell me you turn your love to hatred.

How dare I joke with you about this kind of thing?

What are we waiting for then? Go arrest her!

Can't bring yourself to do it?

She was really nice to me when we were dating.

But

she killed someone.

Don't tell me you plan to let her go.

Zou Ying made and dealt drugs. She would have been sentenced to death.

Chairman Liu of the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce

smuggled drugs to Hong Kong.

Death penalty, too.

But more than 20 people also got hurt.

Do they all deserve it?

I hated her,

until I saw this.

There is always a special place for me in her heart.

So?

She doesn't need to pay for her crime?

That night

you just got lucky and didn't die.

Or I might cry my eyes blind.

Did I deserve this?

Silly Lu, you are an expert in investigating cases.

But in other respects you…

Say no more.

Let me think about it.

Chusheng liked Tong Li so much.

How did he bring himself to arrest her?

After that, he broke down.

He got drunk every night for a month.

You feel like drinking?

OK.

I will drink with you.
