[Warm on a Cold Night]

[Episode 13]

Hu.

Yes.

How many people are still outside?

Let me go and have a look.

Wang Jirong.

Girl, there are not many left.

Only about fifty to sixty people.

Fifty to sixty people left?

Ah, there are still another fifty to sixty people.

Liu.

Hi, Daren.

How are things going?

The girls at the Cuiyan Brothel all claimed that

Xu Youdao had been drawing there

for several nights in a row.

Take a look.

This is Xu Youdao's

painting for them.

He spent the day in Nanfeng Studio

and the night in Cuiyan Brothel,

and he was always surrounded by people.

He does not seem to have enough time

to kill and set up the scene.

Daren, what are we supposed to do next?

Yeah, Boss.

What should be done?

Xu Youdao.

Let him go. What else can we do?

[Inspection Bureau]

Please.

Floral fabric for sale. Come and take a look.

Premium flower fabric.

How can I track him down

when the Qi people are so ferocious?

How to trace him?

People who are constantly on the move,

come and let me tell you your fortunes to see if they are good or bad.

Come and check it out.

Candied hawthorn!

They are sturdy and durable.

Come and have a glance.

The little pendant.

Take a look.

My floral fabric is of excellent quality.

What the dickens is this guy up to?

[Zuixiang Brothel]

What kind of person is this?

Total disregard for hygiene.

What brings you here?

Do not worry.

I am uninterested in your minor

and unrelated criminal case.

I have my own reason to arrest him.

Then, General, may I ask

as to how this guy offended you?

It is not about him.

It is about that wolf's head.

That wolf's head?

What is wrong with that wolf's head?

The three scars on the wolf's head

were not natural.

They were intentionally painted on,

and it was painted with the exquisite old-school skills

Almost fooling my eyes.

So, you make a guess.

Did someone instigate the person

who drew three scars on the wolf's head?

Let me interrogate this man,

if General does not mind.

I do not mind.

However, you are currently serving as an Inspection Bureau inspector,

you are not permitted to use lynching.

Really? I just said a couple words

and you really backpedaled.

Have you become foolish

as a result of spending too much time recently

with Qian people?

We, Qi people want to interrogate someone

without leaving any evidence.

Are there not many options?

You both...

What are both of you up to?

We have something to ask you.

What is it?

What exactly do you want to ask at this place?

Who painted the three scars

on the mask?

What three scars?

Hurry up, let me up.

I am the Eldest Senior of Nanfeng Studio.

He fell by himself,

not as a result of me.

That's fine.

This silly girl.

Where can I locate him

since the Qi people are moving so fast?

Someone is falling down!

Why are all of you making a lot of clamorous voices?

He is flying so high.

So high in the sky!

Please wait. Wait, please.

Wait. Please wait.

It hurts.

I found them.

What exactly are you both doing?

Let me ask you again.

Who painted the three scars

on the wolf's head?

Those of mine...

My specimens are flawless.

How can there be any scars?

So you are saying that

you are not the one who painted the three scars on the wolf's head?

You also have no idea

who drew it?

Exactly.

My studio's doors are all open,

so anyone can come and go as they want.

Do you have the source of

the three-scarred wolf's head

you drew earlier?

I dare not, I dare not say.

I am afraid to say.

Warrior.

Warrior, please help me up.

Warrior.

Despite everything I have told you,

you will not believe me.

Tell me then.

How about this?

Warrior.

Warrior, help me up, please.

Warrior, please save me.

You deserve it. You deserve it.

Why did you jump off by yourself?

Not everyone

can save you.

I did not jump off.

Are you done?

Can you tell me now?

I will.

I will tell you.

In my dream.

In my dream.

In my dream.

I dreamed of him many times.

Although it was a dream,

it was very real.

I saw

the dark street.

Ghost fire-like eyes.

His scars are still bleeding.

He seems to come from hell.

He came to take revenge on everything in this world.

Walking in the dark.

That is why I drew it out.

I am really telling the truth.

Warrior, please spare my life.

Please spare me.

What do you think?

What on earth was he talking about?

He does not seem to be lying.

What if

it is really a dream,

Could it be because of that thing?

What thing?

Qiyuan Stone.

What are you doing?

Transforming on the street,

do you want to be arrested again?

How can a Qian man

obtain such a thing?

I want to know too.

Qiyuan Stone.

Can I entrust you

with this matter?

Certainly you can.

But, let me make it clear in adavance that

this clue might not have anything to do with

the case you are looking into.

It does not matter.

But, if Xu Youdao

is not the murderer,

then I was off the scent.

What are you afraid of?

Do not you still have your partner?

How about this?

I will continue

to find the murderer who

painted the three scars on the wolf's head.

Is it okay for you to be in charge of investigating Xu Youdao?

Okay.

Then I will go first.

Is it a must that

I have to give in to that girl?

Alright, stop crying.

This candy is for you.

The candy is delicious.

Really?

Yes.

It's delicious.

Here.

Thank you.

Be careful.

We had been asking around for the whole afternoon,

and the information we gathered is all about there.

Hence, I figured it out that

Xu Youdao and Wang Jirong have been brothers

since their childhood.

They never have conflict over neither women

nor money.

As for Wang Ji Rong,

he had been doing bad things since he was a child,

but in this studio, Xu Youdao

is the most sympathetic to him.

Jun‘er.

Do you remember a disciple

Wang Jirong's disciple said

he was still

the day before yesterday.

The following day,

nobody saw him.

That's true.

So,

it took only twelve hours

for him to be found after going missing.

On this particular day,

Xu Youdao was in the painting studio during the day

and only went out for

three hours at night.

We apprehended him the next day

when he returned.

If he is the murderer,

then only these three hours

are available.

However, during these three hours,

he also visited Cuiyan Brothel.

How did you know?

I noticed it on him

when I arrived here yesterday

—it was the scent of the Cuiyan Brothel.

I also know that he has

a special side room in the Cuiyan Brothel,

which is dedicated to painting.

So...

So?

So, so what?

Hanzheng surely cannot find a clue.

Really, all you can recall is fighting with him.

Not really.

Well, I also want to be

a good partner to him.

But...

So,

if I want to manage him,

I must first mentally

subdue him.

But...

Unfortunately,

we have not found any clues.

He does not like drawing at all and is only interested in money.

He is a money lover who enjoys gambling.

I heard that Eldest Senior

lent him a sum of money to

redeemed

a painting he sold.

Got it.

What?

Wang Jiarong is greedy for money and loves gambling.

He values money as his life,

but he is willing to borrow money

to redeem his painting.

Does this

sounds strange?

Yes.

Girl.

I'm back.

I'm back!

Godfather.

How?

How is it?

Stop drinking. Let us get down to business. It is not a trial case.

Come on, tell me.

Hanzheng.

[Nanfeng Studio]

What?

He hurled the man up and down

the City Gate Tower.

Hu,

did Xu Youdao get hurt?

Trauma is certain,

but he has no trauma.

Was he hiding his face?

He seemed to cover his face.

That's good.

In such a case,

I do not need to be made a scapegoat.

Oh no.

In that case,

he will

come back for us soon.

We are about to be ruined.

Be careful, be careful, be careful.

Girl,

Are all of you looking for Senior's painting?

Can you make it?

Young Prince,

You are quite strong.

How is it, girl?

Is it bumpy?

This is so fun.

Painter Feng,

You are amazing.

You made

such a rare and useful thing.

My Master had gout,

which made it difficult for him to walk for a while.

As a result,

there is such a chair in the studio.

I did not expect to it to be used today.

Then Master Wei does not need to use it any more?

Following that, Master's gout was treated with acupuncture all year round,

and his leg disease improved significantly.

When he is able to walk and run,

he travels far and wide to spend time outside.

I have no idea

where Master is right now.

It seems that Master Wei has been travelling

for half a year.

Yeap.

I did not expect anything like this to happen

after Master left.

Please.

Let us go.

This is the warehouse of Nanfeng Studio.

Some items that were not previously in use

are all here.

As a result,

Wang Jirong redeemed the painting

and tossed it here.

A disciple discovered this painting

and assumed it had been stolen,

so he gave it to me.

But when I asked the Second Senior,

he said the painting was evil and

demanded that I destroy it right away.

Evil.

What is it?

I have no idea,

and I have never encountered it.

Let us take a look first.

It is a normal scenery painting.

Where is the evil spirit?

Nothing wicked is apparent to me.

Yes, I cannot tell either.

Your Highness, what do you think?

There are no flaws

and there is no negative meaning,

as in his other paintings.

I cannot tell also.

Why he redeemed this painting?

[Best Collectible]

Your Highness.

What is wrong?

Is this painting

was redeemed

from Wuming Painting Club?

Master, you are extremely perceptive.

This painting

was redeemed

from Wuming Painting Club.

Wuming Painting Club.

Your Highness.

What is wrong with Wuming Painting Club?

Nothing.

Wuming Painting Club is a decent place.

It is just that

the place is not so compatible with me.

Incompatible?

Incompatible...?

It does not matter.

That place,

I can go with her.

When did you come in?

When the three of you were

in Wang Ji Rong's room,

I was there.

It is really early.

Where are you taking me to?

To Wuming Painting Club.

It will be late if we do not go now.

Why are we going there?

What is this?

Bring the painting along.

Now then you know that I am useful.

Do not even bother bringing me along?

Do not even bother bringing you along?

Well…

Please come in. Please come in.

[Wuming Book Club]

Invitation card please?

This is my invitation.

Please come in.

Here, Jiu'er.

Put your hands down.

Thank you.

Jiu'er.

Remember,

the owner rarely shows up,

and the shopkeeper enjoys being praised

and prefers to listen to stories.

You can definitely handle him

Then, I...

will not go in.

I will leave it to you.

Do not worry.

Go back early.

Let us go.

Who are you? Do you have an invitation card?

Two Gentlemen,

Please help me inform your shopkeeper

that Inspection Bureau inspector Su Jiu'er has stopped by to

get shopkeeper Li's opinion on some matters.

Do not think you can bribe me

with a bag of candies.

I have not settled with you about

what had happened during daytime.

It is not too late to settle the mater

after we find the clues.

Please follow me.

Please.

Please.

Young Master, Please.

There is still wine here.

What?

No, thanks.

This place is really magnificent.

I do not understand,

why is this place incompatible with

Jun'er?

Pull your chin back.

It is almost on the floor.

Please wait a moment.

Thank you.

Coming.

[Qian Shopkeeper Li]

Inspection Bureau inspector.

What are you doing here?

I have known your name for a long time, Shopkeeper Li,

and I have heard that you have a large collection of paintings in your possession.

We came here today with a painting,

and I would like to ask you for some advice on it.

Your flattery is excessive.

There are more than 100 paintings in and out

the Wuming Painting Club every day.

Wuming Painting Club has been in operation for over ten years,

and even immortals cannot recall all of the paintings as well.

This painting is different.

Two days ago,

this painting was just taken back

by the painter himself.

So...

Did he regret it again?

He asked you,the Inspection Bureau inspector.

to collaborate with him to put up the show,

so that he could sell it at a good price.

You got it wrong, Shopkeeper Li.

The main purpose we came today was

because

that the painter

was dead.

[Fishing Alone at Han River]

What do you want to know?

Why did Wang Jirong want to

redeem this painting?

Sir,

do you know the reason?

You are the inspector.

You cannot even guess that?

Well...

How should I guess?

This painting is called Fishing Alone at Han River.

Don't you think it's strange?

Han River?

Fishing Alone at Han River.

Fishing alone?

Yes.

There is only a river in this painting.

A lonely boat.

There's no one fishing alone.

You are worth to be cultivated.

Is this the reason for

him to redeemed the painting?

Exactly.

Is it possible that he made a mistake in the drawing

and the product is not the correct version?

How could there be

in the painting I collected?

What's wrong

this painting?

When the painting was delivered here at first,

there was nothing wrong with it,

and there was nothing special about it as well.

How is it?

You are lucky.

Master is here today.

It depends on

whether Master likes it or not.

Take it slowly.

Slowly.

Zhen.

Our painting club's collections are

divided into three categories:

Jing, Zhen, and Ji.

The owner values

the Ji category,

and they are all considered rare

by the rest of the world.

The category of Zhen is

determined by the owner's preferences.

The owner might play with it for a few years

or perhaps give it away,

or sell it.

No one knows.

Then why is this painting

with the marks of two categories?

Because of that strange thing,

it upgraded this painting from the category of Zhen

to the category of Ji.

This was also the reason why Wang Jirong determined

to redeem this painting.

That night,

the painting

about the old man who was fishing in the river originally,

he disappeared from the drawing on that night.

The man in the painting is missing?

Exactly

Such a strange painting.

Your boss

has even promoted it to a higher category.

It's nothing.

Please have a seat.

Our boss prefers rare things.

The more mysterious the thing is,

the more our owner likes it.

As a result,

it is also possible that Wang Jirong painted

two paintings at the same time,

one with and

one without the old man on the boat,

and then found an opportunity to change them.

Exactly in accordance

with your owner's preferences

A painting is not only similar in expression,

but also includes ink and brushwork.

I personally examined the painting and

recall every stroke

clearly.

Even if it is drawn by the same artist,

as long as there is a wrong stroke,

it will not escape my attention.

Furthermore,

if it is done for the owner's favor,

why would he pay

twice the price to redeem the painting?

It is completely unreasonable.

Actually,

it is not that unreasonable.

Shopkeeper Li, what else do you know?

You just said

he was hung with a wolf's head after his death.

Is it true?

Yes.

Do you know

this is also a painting?

Xu Youdao's Wolf-headed Man Roaming at Night

You have done your homework well.

Since we get along so well,

let me give you a piece of advice.

Do not investigate

this case any more.

Why?

Because I think

they were killed by the painting.

In the end,

all your investigation will be in vain.

Maybe

you will get killed by the painting as well.

Sir,

people was killed by the painting.

That's

too ridiculous.

Little girl,

I like what you say.

But as for your subordinate,

he is so unlikeable.

You...

Calm down. Calm down.

Sir,

I have one more thing

to ask you.

This Nanfeng Studio...

Is there any other paintings

in this Nanfeng Studio

with such

bizarre things happened?

You are smart.

Is that painting called The Immortal in the Painting?

That is right.

Sir,

can you tell us further about

the matters if you know

more specific details?

So that, we will also know whether

we should pursue the investigation further.

I'll reluctantly

to give you some advice.

That painting

It's called the Painting of a Snow Night in Jiuxiao City

The Immortal in the Painting is just the nickname of it.

Could it be...

someone in the painting is missing too?

The incident for this painting is in the opposite way.

The Painting of a Snow Night in Jiuxiao City

is the final work drawn by Master Wei Gonglin,

the Chief Master of Nanfeng Studio,

who devotes his whole life to this painting.

Congratulations, Master.

The painting of Master Wei is fantastic.

The sky was full of vibrant colors

one evening,

and auspicious snow fell unexpectedly at night,

and the sky and the earth were vast.

Some people in Nanfeng Studio

heard the fairy music

and smelled the strange fragrance.

The next day,

they discovered

the Painting of a Snow Night in Jiuxiao City,

where there is an extra red fairy.

Senior.

Who dares to draw

on Master's painting?

This stroke

must be done

by Master.

What a skillful work.

I did not draw further by myself.

[Qian Wei Gonglin]

I do not know either.

Congratulations, Master.

The achievements of Master are extraordinary.

This is the fairy in the painting.

Come in uninvited and live in the painting.

Congratulations, Master.

Congratulations, Master.

From that onwards,

the painting has been called The Immortal in the Painting

and become a priceless treasure.

The Immortal in the Painting

“Wolf-headed Man Roaming at Night" has not been settled.

Fishing Alone at Han River

is very strange.

Now come another "The Immortal in the Painting".

Do you believe that this case

has anything to do with the painting?

Do you truly believe that the paintings

are killing those people?

If you want to believe that,

It's better to believe

you might as well believe that the trees over there, the grass on the ground,

and the door outside

can jump out and kill you.

Believe me.

Maybe the key of this case

is really related to painting.

As long as the case is not solved,

there is no truth.

Then, Xu Youdao is not the murderer, right?

Shouldn't you apologize

for what happened during daytime?

You walk so fast again.

I am having difficulty walking right now,

why can't you wait for me?

Take it.

What?

♫ I want to travel mountains and lakes with you ♫

♫ The shadows the moon casts on the waters is lovely ♫

♫ Through winds and rains, I bring you to a place where the sky is clear ♫

♫ Your smile comes into my dream with the wind ♫

♫ I'm glad to have you when I wake up from my dream ♫

♫ I realized love has its own reason after meeting ♫

Hanzheng, don't let go of my hand.

♫ The two hearts understand when the night is warm ♫

I am afraid.

♫ I'll hold you in my arms outside Jiuxiao City ♫

♫ Turn the past into dust ♫

Hanzheng, you scared me!

♫ Our future is more worth looking forward to ♫

You scared me.

You are so timid.

What are you doing?

What's wrong?

What do you mean?

You almost killed me.

You haven't apologized

for what happened during the day.

You just threw me out.

Why are you always like this?

I...

Listen.

I have prejudice.

Whether it's Wenjun or you,

both of you have your own ways.

I shouldn't interfere.

Without you and him,

I can't say

I can't make it in this Jiuxiao City,

but it's definitely not as smooth as it is now.

Also,

I was mean to you.

That does not mean

I want to do anything to you.

I just don't want you

to ask me

about the matter of the three scars.

I'm sorry.

Alright.

If you send me home,

then I will forgive you.

Let's go.

You have to fly well this time.

My home is over there.

Slowly.

Why did you bring

here again?

I have already said sorry to you.

You should help me to investigate the case.

I thought

you sincerely apologized to me.

So you're exploiting me again.

Who said that?

I'll investigate if you don't.

Fine.

Where did I pick you up just now,

then send you back later.

Let's go.

Wait a minute.

After the checking the painting,

can you

send me home like how you brought me here just now?

It is just a piece of cake for me.

Really?

Why are there so many people

in this painting?

You come and take a look,

which is the painting?

Get up.

Get up...

Hurry up.

Hurry up, check it out which is the fairy in painting.

Do you really want to pull the fairy out

and interrogate her?

Ridiculous!

Get up.

I'm so sleepy.

Here.

Come on. Wake up. Cheer up.

Don't push me.

By the way,

did Xu Youdao

tell you

why he drew

the wolf's head with three scars?

He said he had a dream.

A dream?

The dream came true.

and painted it real.

If this is another case,

I would not believe it.

But this case

I don't think it's a coincidence.

Help!

Bad news!

I heard

the screaming just now.

Well,

Let's go.

Where are you going?

To find the sound.

Let's go together.

Is it Senior?

I think so.

How did he become like this?

Come on.

Make way, please.

The investigation from Inspection Bureau.

He is dead.

How is that possible?

This Qiyuan Stone.

Do you know

when painter Xu came back?

Two hours ago.

Something wrong?

He seemed shocked.

on the way back to his room,

he told us not to disturb him.

He said he wanted a good rest.

Before that,

has he met

with anyone?

I don't know.

Su Jiu'er

Did he die like one of

the painting?

So cruel.

Senior is here.

Senior is here.

Flower of Evil.

[Be Perceptive of the Minutest Detail]

Three hours ago,

he was still at Inspection Bureau

and now he is dead.

What's the cause of death?

Did you find out?

He's not injured.

The cause of death is very strange.

There's no sign of poisoning.

What do you mean?

Is he still

suffocated to death by these flowers?

Commander,

come and have a look.

I’ve been investigating for more than ten years.

I’ve never seen such a way of death.

A living person

would be scared to death.

Do you believe it?

Commander,

You saw

what happened just now.

when we opened the chest,

the heart

has exploded.

[Nanfeng Studio, Xu Youdao]

He was shocked

in an instant.

What happened?

that scared a person to death?

Because I think

they were killed by the painting.

In the end,

all your investigation will be in vain.

Maybe you will

be killed by the painting as well.

Do you believe

those people were killed by the painting?

Girl,

What are you talking about?

Tell me if you have any clues.

Uncle Liu,

are you familiar with flowers and plants?

Do you know the origin of these plants?

This is a kind of vine flower from the south.

It's easy to grow.

But few people plant it.

I've checked carefully.

In Nanfeng Hall,

only Lin Zhixing's courtyard

in Lin Zhixing's courtyard.

Isn't this

the death of Wang Ji Rong?

I got it.

Wang Jirong was turned into Xu Youdao's painting by

Xu Youdao's wolf head.

Xu Youdao was transformed into Lin Zhixing's painting

by Lin Zhixing's flowers.

I got it.

The murderer is warning us.

He predicts the next person to die is

Lin Zhixing.

[Lin Zhixing]

Commander.

I have an idea.

We just need to send someone

to keep an eye on Lin Zhixing

and follow the clues.

Then we can catch the murderer.

Yes.

Prince Han,

what is your opinion?

You are really enthusiastic to

follow the murderer's idea.

What do you mean?

Brother Daren,

Prince Han means

you like to go

wherever the murderer wants.

Are you the murderer's good son?

What if the murder wants us

to protect Lin Zhixing?

But he has another purpose.

Right?

Come here.

Time is running out.

What you should do is

split up.

Split up.

Let's not talk about the preview,

But this...

Lin Zhixing

must have something

with this.

So we can't

ignore it.

Right?

Yes.

Besides,

what Prince Han said

also makes sense.

We can't be always

led by the murderer.

We must find out

his purpose and motive.

Right?

You're right, Commander.

How about this?

I'll take someone to keep an eye on Lin Zhixing.

Don't Jiu Girl and Prince Han

have the clues?

They can go and investigate.

Yue Daren,

Are you trying to take my job?

Why did I do that?

Hu Badao

Are you clear about the whole thing?

Go away!

I was the first one who mentioned about

keeping an eye on Lin Zhixing.

Why not it is helping?

You are certainly not helping.

You are stealing the job.

This...

You...

She's already like this.

Hanzheng, Hanzheng.

Your Highness, what are you up to?

Forget it.

Yue Daren!

Come here.

Come over.

Go, go, go.

Forget it.

No wonder you have been always bullied

at Inspection Bureau.

I'm not.

I don't want to be so calculative with him.

They are usually like that.

But today,

it seemed that they were really scared.

However,

without Prince Han,

no one would have stood up for me.

Right?

Stop.

There must be something wrong with your sweet words.

You stop.

Have you forgotten?

Forget what?

You said it yourself.

I will accompany you to check the painting,

then you will send me home.

Am I sending you home now?

Is this considered sending me home?

I am so sleepy and tired now.

My leg is injured as well.

I just hope

you can do flash me again.

Then I will be flashed...

I am also tired and sleepy .

Take me with you too.

Flash one time and then reach home.

That is too fast.

You brat!

Mother. You still know to come back?

[He'an Hall]

Look...

Look at the time now.

You really...

Mother, I'm back.

He'an Hall

Hurry up, come in.

I'll apply some medicine for you.

Alright.

Look at you.

You're not honest at all.

This Hanzheng.

usually looks fierce.

I didn't expect that

he would apologize to me.
