[Hello Procurator]

[Episode 7]

Yu.

Yu.

Mom.

Dad.

We're off.

Who are you?

You think you can

punish the school bullies

by jumping off?

You can't punish anyone.

You will only die a painful death

and leave more pain

to your family.

The only people you can punish

are the ones who love you.

No!

I'm torn.

Come on in.

Let me get you a glass of milk.

To help you sleep.

Why are you torn?

I dreamed about Wang Chaoyuan again.

He jumped

straight in front of me.

I couldn't pull him back.

Wenjing.

I know

what you're going to say.

You're trying to say

that if I can't manage

my emotions,

I should quit the case.

No.

My parents died

when I was 11,

and it was my birthday.

My mom made

a big dinner for me

to eat at home,

but I wanted

to go to the science museum.

Mom,

I want to go to the science museum today.

But...

It's going to rain. Maybe not today.

But it's my birthday,

so take me there.

Yu.

Why are you pestering mom again?

Dad.

I want to go to the science museum today.

Today?

It's going to rain. Maybe next time.

But I really want to go today.

Since he wants to go so much,

let's take him there.

Today is his birthday.

We'll drive there without getting wet.

And the science museum is indoors.

Let's go.

You're spoiling him.

You're not?

Who secretly took him to play ball?

I didn't tell her.

Case solved.

Well, your

stinky clothes

smelt like sweat.

Who are you trying to fool?

Okay, let's go then.

I'll get the car keys. Come.

OK.

Wait for dad to get the car keys.

Then we'll go.

I often think

that if

I hadn't asked to go to the science museum,

we wouldn't have driven out,

and we wouldn't have been hit by a big truck,

and they wouldn't have died.

It was the truck driver who was at fault.

It's not your fault.

It was an accident.

Really?

That's what I want to say to you.

What?

You are not to blame for Wang Chaoyuan's death.

Blame those

school bullies,

they made Wang Chaoyuan

lose the courage to live

and have no hope to live.

Ren Tianyu.

It's okay.

It's been so many years.

Let's listen to some music.

Bach?

Whenever I can't sleep,

I listen to it.

Ren Tianyu.

You're a strange person,

sometimes you're annoying,

and sometimes you're nice.

What if I'm lying to you?

How is that possible?

I have no quarrel with you.

[Chuanqi Music Bar Coffee] Please enjoy.

Thank you.

Try it. It's good tea.

Can I ask you a question?

Go ahead.

Are you

so busy with work

that you never got married?

I guess so.

Is your work

dangerous?

No, it's not.

Because we are not police officers,

usually

by the time a case comes to us,

the suspect

has already been arrested.

Our job is to review

the chain of evidence related to the case,

so as to determine

whether or not to prosecute.

It's good if it's not dangerous.

It's good.

I don't know much

about your field,

but it sounds

quite interesting.

Really?

What is a chain of evidence?

It sounds complicated.

It is very complicated indeed.

Because it has to do

with so many other things.

For example,

whether the case is objective,

whether it's a fake case,

or whether the suspect

is that person we're looking for.

It's really complicated.

This is the first time I've heard of it,

and I've gained knowledge.

And then

there's the verification of the evidence.

For example,

the key physical evidence, documentary evidence.

Once

I had a case

where the key physical evidence

was a knife with blood on.

We found that the knife

did have the victim's blood on it.

But...

But I'm not supposed

to talk to you about work today.

I forgot

I was here on my mother's orders.

I'm sorry.

I understand.

Well, actually...

I wasn't expecting much.

But I think

we had a pretty good conversation.

Yes.

Yes, it was very good.

I don't know

if I'll ever get a chance to ask you out again.

Well...

Understand. I understand.

I know what you mean.

I know my place.

I'm divorced, and I have children,

you can do better than me.

That's not what I meant.

I'm very happy to have met you

and I think we had

a very nice chat today.

But...

Are you

in love with someone?

Then I totally get it.

I'm really sorry.

No need to say sorry.

It's just

the first time we met.

Besides,

you've given me

a free one-on-one lesson in law.

It's not a bad deal for me.

Bye, Miss.

Mom!

Why isn't she out yet?

What a coincidence!

You are here!

I thought you were having a hearing.

Yes, it ended early.

Did it go badly?

No, it's fine.

Then I'll leave you to it.

Don't run away.

Let's have dinner together.

Your treat then?

Of course it's on me.

You've helped me so much,

I can treat you every day.

Ke'er!

Dad, why are you here today?

You haven't been here for a long time.

Yes, that's why I had to

take the chance to be a good dad.

Come on.

Auntie, look.

I wore

the sneakers you bought today.

Do they look good?

Yes, they do.

It's these shoes.

[Meishan Primary School] I had to wipe them for her this morning,

[Meishan Primary School] but she wouldn't let me,

[Meishan Primary School] it took more than ten minutes.

No, it didn't.

You can't wipe them.

Those shoes are dirty on purpose.

They're worthless if you wipe them.

Really?

I don't get it.

He doesn't get it.

Let's go eat pizza.

Auntie should come with us.

Of course.

Hold her hand.

Let's go, auntie.

Is it hot?

Is it hot, Ke'er?

No.

Thank you.

Here, auntie, this is for you.

- Thank you. - Got the biggest piece

for your auntie.

Hey.

You got nothing for me?

You're a big man.

You want me to do it for you?

Okay.

You have a point.

But...

I love you for nothing.

I'll do it myself.

Don't regret it.

I'll do it for you.

I'll do it for you. I'll do it for you.

Okay.

I'm just playing with you.

You little girl.

Dad.

I'm gonna get another Coke.

You go ahead.

Be careful!

Yes.

I heard that Jiang Wenjing

also applied to join

the Xinzhou High School bullying case.

I didn't think you'd agree.

It has nothing to do with me.

It's Meng's case.

Don't I know you?

If you hadn't talked to Meng,

would he have agreed?

It's one thing for me to talk to him,

but it's another

for him to agree or not.

If he didn't want it,

what I said wouldn't matter.

You actually

have the best heart

for them,

but you always

put on a fierce look,

so that everyone is afraid of you.

It's a good thing.

at least they do not dare

to be sloppy when working.

The job of a procurator

is different

from other jobs.

We have to make sure

everyone is safe, right?

It's okay to be afraid of me,

it doesn't matter if they hate me,

it's better than making a mistake,

don't you think so?

Yeah.

That's a good point.

Keep it serious.

That's right.

It's just that Jiang Wenjing

is young and inexperienced.

Aren't you afraid that she'll be too preoccupied

to judge the case calmly

and objectively?

Jiang Wenjing.

I think she still

has the talent

and passion to be a procurator.

Of course,

at her age,

she has not suffered much,

and she had good grades at school,

so it is inevitable that she will be idealistic,

and will inevitably be impulsive.

Give her time. She'll have to work on it.

Who told me

that “would criminals

give her

time to grow up”?

So I will

give her time to grow up.

This is not a conflict of words.

Auntie.

This is for you.

Thank you.

Nothing for me again?

You want it too?

Of course.

I'll get you another one.

Ke'er!Ke'er!

Sit down. Eat.

Here, I'll get it myself.

No, no, wait...

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

I was just...

You've been treating me...

Dad.

Let me tell you a secret.

Go on.

Auntie seems to

have gone on a blind date with someone.

How do you know?

I heard her

talking on the phone with someone.

Emm.

That's good.

That's good?

Yes.

It's a good thing.

Your auntie is going to find you an uncle.

Isn't that a good thing?

But I don't think it's a good thing.

You don't think it's a good thing?

What are you worried about?

Tell me.

If she really

marries someone else,

then...

What will I do then?

What will you do?

No matter who your auntie marries,

she's still your auntie.

What do you mean, what will you do?

How can you...

Why are you so numb?

I really do not know

what you are going to say.

I don't like her dating.

Do you like her dating?

This blind date thing

is a very normal thing.

Because she's going to get married sooner or later.

Right?

It's not that I don't want her to get married,

I want her to get married to...

To... To whom?

What's wrong?

What do you want to say?

What's going on?

Are you saying something bad about me?

Was she saying something bad about me?

No, she said you went on a blind date.

No, I...

My dad's been pushing me.

- So he made me... - It's OK. It's good.

It's nothing serious.

No, it's a good thing.

Here, you... you drink your glass.

I didn't touch it.

You get this one for me, right?

I'll drink this one.

It's good.

You must eat it while it's hot.

I find that once the pizza is cold,

it tastes bad.

Come on, come on.

Good.

Good. Good.

It's good.

Come on, eat! Eat!

Auntie, here.

Thank you.

Dad.

You remembered me this time?

Your colleague is so handsome.

Is he?

Isn't he?

Especially when he hits the ball,

he is so confident,

it feels like

he has everything under control.

Stop reading.

You're here for the fun or for your work?

Are you still

the Jiang Wenjing I know?

Give it back.

Look at you.

Looks like you're in a jam.

You can find that

jerk lawyer.

Isn't he good?

Him?

Yeah.

For the sake of

giving me a good night's sleep,

I'll finish this for you.

Hey!

What's wrong? What are you thinking about?

I won't ask him.

Then introduce me to

this handsome colleague of yours.

Don't you have

a boy in the game?

Why do you want others?

The boy in the game

is online,

not in reality.

Besides,

don't you know

that people are different in real life from that in your phone?

No matter how handsome a guy is in your phone,

if you ever get the chance to see him in person,

you'll see he looks nothing like that prince charming in your phone.

I'm telling you,

that guy is the real prince.

Tell me,

does he shoot pools a lot?

He's really good.

Yeah, he does, I guess.

You guess?

I mean, I think he does.

Among our colleagues,

he is the best pool shooter.

Alright, buddy, good game.

It's getting late.

Looks like he's done.

He's coming for us.

I'm going to the lady's room.

Right.

OK.

I'll see you later.

Sure, bye.

Look at that poker face,

are you studying the case?

Yes.

Any findings?

From the investigation record,

the boys were firm that

they were coerced by Wu Bowen.

Good point.

Many practices of school bullying,

are participated by multiple individuals.

It's a group behavior.

But there is always a leader in it.

The rest in the group,

are coerced by the leader

to do harm to other innocent people.

Wu Bowen is evil.

I promise I will bring justice

for Wang Chaoyuan.

But don't let it get you

too emotional.

If you have presumptions,

your judgement will be biased.

You are cool for yourself.

Was that part of your training in the army?

Yes.

That's necessary for a scout.

As a scout,

what else was in your training?

Sleep early and get up early.

Keeping a healthy lifestyle.

You girls carry on. I'll see you later.

It's only nine o'clock.

And I'm barely keeping myself awake.

Tell your friend I have to go.

Well, she is ...

Hey,

where's your colleague?

He went home to sleep.

What?

It's not even midnight.

He was in the army.

They have a healthy daily routine, unlike you.

Do you remember

that I was said to be

a soldier's wife?

Wake up, girl.

He has retired from the army.

A veteran's wife, then.

Of course.

You go on and have fun.

I'm heading back for work.

You're leaving me?

Bye bye.

Work, work, work.

Like there's a prince charming at work.

She makes zero effort

to help me find a boyfriend.

Such an ice queen.

Coming.

You can't come in my apartment as you wish.

Stop right there!

Here's one question:

What happened to my castle?

What about it?

It collapsed.

Could be wind?

My windows were shut.

Who was it then?

You were alone in the room.

Who was it, indeed?

Jiang Wenjing.

Is it really that hard to admit it?

Alright, alright.

I admit.

I did it.

But in my defense,

I was trying to build it.

Who would know it was so fragile

that it collapsed with a single touch?

Come on now.

I apologize.

Never mind.

Just don't fiddle with my castle anymore.

Are you seriously mad at me for a toy castle?

If you like it that much,

I'll help you with the toy castle.

Not toy castle.

Castle.

Come on, come on.

Come on.

Let go.

Are we done here?

If we are, you can go now.

Jiang Wenjing,

as a procurator,

I think you know

what disclosure of evidence is.

I'll see it no later than tomorrow.

So what?

I'm faster than you.

Look at you being silly.

It's kind of cute.

Come on now, get out of my apartment.

Wait.

Get out.

What about my castle?

Go home and fix

your toy.

Yes?

When they were bullying Wang Chaoyuan,

someone recorded a video of it.

A video?

Yes.

In the video,

the boys all took part.

They were being bullies.

This is not what they said previously.

It's conflicting.

They lied.

But most importantly,

in the video,

I did not see Wu Bowen.

He could've been framed.

It's good news.

I wonder why

such an important piece of information

was never even mentioned by him.

Although it's good news,

we have no evidence

to prove him innocent.

Mr. Wu,

I think you need to talk to him.

Let him think of

that, besides the video,

are there anything else

that can prove his innocence?

Sure.

When I come home,

I will talk to him.

Keep me updated.

I will.

So,

do you know it now?

Do you know why I’m beating you?

Son,

what are you watching?

Bowen,

did you know that

they recorded

a video of what happened?

I'm talking to you.

Perhaps.

Why didn't you tell me

about the video?

What else do you know?

Leave nothing out.

Nothing.

Bowen,

they are filing a lawsuit against you.

And you are still silent about the video.

I understand you're scared.

But I can't understand your stupidity...

Yes.

I am stupid.

I am trying to help.

What's with that attitude?

What do you know about it to help me?

Exactly, I need you to tell me about it!

If you keep your mouth shut,

how would I know the truth?

When have you ever tried to know who I am?

When have you ever trusted me?

You...!

Now you came to ask,

and I got nothing to say to you.

Stop!

I am asking you now,

did you join them?

Finally, a question that matters.

I'm telling you I didn't.

Would you believe me?

Wu Bowen wasn't even

in the video.

But you said

that Wu Bowen coerced you.

This

is sheer frame-up.

This is not just a trouble for our side.

A bunch of kids,

right?

They got scared.

And they put a little twist into the description.

That's it.

No big deal.

Isn't it?

We can put it this way.

Can we ...

Actually, we should.

Soak it in.

Well, how about I say

that I was really scared

so I couldn't admit

that I participated?

It was Wu Bowen.

We were all

forced by him.

Because he...

Because he coerced us

into beating that guy.

If we didn't beat that guy,

we would be the victim.

Is that so?

Yes, it is so.

Now it's clear.

Wu Bowen was the culprit.

So he made the video,

without showing up in it.

And you were all coerced.

Now are we good?

I'm not sure.

Only your son

is saying so.

If other kids

have other versions of the story,

this would be troublesome.

Mr. Sun,

how about, like last time you did it,

you go talk to them?

Last time?

Was there a last time?

What are you talking about?

My career might be ended up for this.

No, sorry, Mr. Sun.

I'm not saying there was a last time.

But what can I do?

Right?

I paid you for this.

I can't be the one who talk to them.

Why can't you?

Yes,

I am Li Mingqi's attorney.

But you are his father.

You are the best fit to talk to them.

Be aware,

if they

use the false confession against your son,

there's nothing I can do.

Come here,

bare this in mind,

it was Wu Bowen that made the video,

it was him that was the culprit.

You were all coerced by him.

Do you understand?

Do you?

Understood.

Mr. Sun,

I'll talk to

the parents of the other kids.

Li Mingqi,

think really hard.

Is there anything else,

that you have to tell me?

No, I swear.

I swear that was everything.

Got it.

It was uploaded at Ximing High School.

So it was uploaded by

someone from Wang Chaoyuan's school.

I watched the video,

feels like it's a creepshot.

Indeed.

When I was watching it,

I felt the same.

The camera was fidgeting.

And,

when Li Mingqi looked at the camera,

the video recorder put his hand

in front of the camera.

It was as if he didn't want to be found out.

Who was the recorder?

Zhen!

Jing!

It's lunchtime.

What are you doing here?

It's lunchtime, I'm here to take you to lunch.

Lunch?

This doesn't sound like you.

It's unusual for your lifestyle.

I'm leading a new lifestyle.

From today,

I am changing to a healthy routine.

Alright.

But I don't have time for lunch.

I need to go somewhere for work.

Give me a ride.

Well, I ...

This doesn't feel right.

I am sensing that

you didn't come to me for lunch.

So,

why are you here?

I ...

I am a procurator.

I ...

I'm taking you to have fish stew this time.

- I'll be right back. - Sure, where is it?

Right over there.

Mr. Yan.

Mr. Yan.

Hi.

Hi.

Already?

This is Jiang Wenjing's

best friend, bestie.

Yao Zhen.

Just call me Zhen.

This is Pan Xiaoli.

Procurator Pan.

Colleague of Jiang Wenjing and I.

How are you?

Good, nice to meet you.

So why did you come to

see me today?

Well...

I know

a new western restaurant.

I heard the steak is very good,

how about we go and try it?

That's okay.

Procurator Pan, are you coming?

No, no, no.

I can only eat fish today,

beef is for tomorrow.

What do you mean?

How...

What does it have to do with

the dates?

Of course it does.

I am not

a casual person.

But eating dinner

is about

having food you want, right?

No, it's not.

It's important to

have a balanced and nutritious diet,

you can't eat whatever you want.

Our Procurator Pan

has always been strict,

including his recipes.

Today is the day he eats fish.

Isn't this tiring?

No.

You can try it too.

No, no, no,

I can't stand it.

Well...

If Procurator Pan doesn't go,

how about you, Yan?

Not today.

We have things to do.

Maybe another day, okay?

Another day?

Sure.

How about the day after tomorrow?

What day is the day after tomorrow?

My birthday.

Is the day after tomorrow okay?

Thursday.

What's for Thursday,

Procurator Pan?

Thursday...

Chicken.

Sure.

Then I'll prepare the best roast chicken

for you the day after tomorrow,

okay?

Okay. Then it's a deal.

Bye bye.

Yan, let's go

and eat fish.

You're so happy.

I asked him to have lunch today,

but he said he didn't have time.

I told him the day after tomorrow

was my birthday.

He said yes happily.

Birthday?

Yeah.

Wasn't your birthday

two months ago?

It's a lunar birthday.

It's not the right day, either, girl!

Then it's to celebrate you becoming a procurator.

Didn't we celebrate it before?

Can't we celebrate again?

Celebrate again?

Then...

Okay, okay, okay. Aren't you busy?

Where should we go?

Stop talking.

I'm so happy. Let's go.

Wenjing.

this time we must pay attention to

our attitude when communicating with the children.

I understand.

I'm...

I'm too scared.

I dare not admit I hit him,

but if I didn't hit him,

Wu Bowen would have hit me.

I told them a long time ago

that if someone saw us,

it'd be useless to lie.

But Wu Bowen

threatened us,

so we did it.

It was Wu Bowen who said it.

He said he wanted to make a video

that would keep insulting Wang Yuanchao.

We all know that

Wu Bowen's father is very powerful,

so we don't dare to mess with him.

I... I...

I...

Didn't...

Beat...

Beat... Beat him...

I didn't want to,

I really didn't want to,

but Wu Bowen was watching,

and I was scared to death.

I've emailed

you all

the files,

and the paper copies

will be on your desk in a minute.

Mr. Ren is back.

You've been working hard lately.

A couple of suspects

are always changing their statements.

It's tiring, isn't it?

Young man, you're welcome.

I

am just giving a lesson.

You're surely

a very good teacher.

Ren Tianyu.

We can do it the easy way or the hard way.

I suggest you

pack your things in advance

to avoid trouble when you leave.

This suit fits you well,

stop growing bigger.

Go check

where Wu Bowen

usually goes,

where he goes to play basketball,

and where he goes to surf the Internet.

Okay.

By the way.

I'll give you a day off

the day after tomorrow to go see him.

Thank you.

I'll get back to work.

OK.

Zhen.

Here. Happy birthday.

Happy birthday to you every day.

You know how to mock at me.

Thank you my Jing.

The details are good.

Right.

That...

Why isn't Yan here with you?

He went out

with Pan Xiaoli.

He'll be here soon.

Why do you only care about him?

Check the gift I gave you.

No need. It's not the point.

You really did give me a gift.

Of course I'd play the whole thing.

But a deal is a deal.

I'll only stay for one hour.

I need to go back

and review the case.

Alright. Alright.

Wenjing.

You're forced to be here.

Thanks to our friend.

Watch it.

Yao Zhen.

What kind of party is this?

You brought the pool table

here too?

We've never seen you

play billiards before.

Do you know how to play?

Of course I can!

I've always been good at it.

I love billiards.

You just don't know it.

I think you prepared this

for someone.

Now I understand.

You've had

two birthday parties this year,

and now again?

I'm telling you,

today is

my only birthday party this year.

Don't say something wrong later.

The man you've been talking about,

when will he be here?

Right.

I don't know.

He was a soldier,

and yet he's not punctual at all.

Should I go check it out?

Or maybe not.

I should control myself.

Check this.

Hi, Yao Zhen.

Hi.

Let me introduce to you.

This is my good friend Lili.

Nice to meet you.

Hi, nice to meet you too.

Well, you guys go ahead. I have to go.

Yeah, sure.

Yao Zhen.

I'm sorry.

I'm late.

I just went to buy something.

It's okay, it's okay.

Well...

Where's Yan?

Yan...

He's busy, so he won't be here today,

but he asked me

to bring you a gift.

Really?

Is it this one?

No.

No, this is Yan's gift.

This is the gift I bought for you.

Is it nice?

It's...

It's your chrysanthemum?

I...

No, no.

It's yours. No,

it's... It's the gift I'm giving you.

Procurator Pan.

Did you come to the wrong place?

No, it's...

[Love Yao Zhen] This...

Yao Zhen.

Love.

Love, my ass!

Keep standing here, you.

No.

Let me explain.

Yao Zhen, let me explain.

I really didn't know

the box was filled

with chrysanthemums.

If I knew, I wouldn't have taken it, right?

Besides, how could I

send such flowers to your birthday party?

Am I that stupid?

Aren't you stupid?

What do you mean by sending me chrysanthemums?

You think I look like a chrysanthemum,

so you picked them as my gift?

♪No matter how dark the sky is♪

♪There will be a brand-new world♪

♪The darkness won't rage♪

♪Run towards the truth with me♪

♪I won't let go. I won't let go♪

♪The unclear mystery♪

♪I'm unclear about who I should trust♪

♪Those lonely nights♪

♪Those crazy moments♪

♪I can see you clearly but I can't touch you♪

♪At the exit of the pursuit♪

♪And in the brand-new world. Wait for me♪

♪Never listen to the strong wind♪

♪Never follow the mainstream♪

♪Be a warrior who runs in the opposite direction♪

♪Let me carry the burden♪

♪My goal is to do what I should do♪

♪The enthusiastic heart will not be copied♪

♪I've issued warnings against every unfairness♪

♪Prepare to be taught a lesson at any time if you don't believe it♪

♪I'm waiting for you to show up♪

♪And go through everything with me♪

♪Let's watch the world♪

♪Watch the world♪

♪The unclear mystery♪

♪I'm unclear about who I should trust♪

♪Those lonely nights♪

♪Those crazy moments♪

♪I can see you clearly but I can't touch you♪

♪At the exit of the pursuit♪

♪And in the brand-new world. Wait for me♪
