(Badin's Death Anniversary)

Last night, I...

I think you had a fever last night.

But you look much better now.

What's wrong?

It's nothing.

Maybe I didn't get enough sleep.

Thank you for the breakfast.

Actually, you've improved a lot in every aspect.

You don't need to do all of this just to please me.

How did you know that I loved egg whites?

That's not it.

I just happen to love egg yolks.

If that's the case,

these egg whites are...

These were the leftovers when you fell asleep last night.

Are you okay?

Coach,

I have something to tell you.

I will stop investigating that case.

You can trust me.

Take your time.

- Didn't you say you would stop? - I was just...

Ah!

I saw something that I wasn't supposed to! Will I go blind?

Since when were you here?

I...

I can explain about the diary.

Actually, I saw it last night.

If you wish to know the truth,

I can tell you about it.

Let's go.

(Grave of Second Lieutenant Badin Unga)

Today's your death anniversary.

I'm here to visit you.

Grandma Lek is doing fine.

Her cooking

is as delicious as ever.

Beibo is all grown up too.

I brought a friend to visit you today.

She resembles you a lot.

She's a keen observer.

She's meticulous too.

The diary you obtained,

its owner was a person called Badin.

A few years ago,

I received an order

to execute a secret mission.

They wanted me to eradicate a haunt of criminals

and arrest a major criminal named Luger.

Back then, he used a warehouse as his base.

You jerk!

Badin!

Badin!

I'm going to charge inside and arrest him.

Don't do it. It's a trap.

Sorry, Captain.

I have to arrest him.

Badin!

Badin!

Run!

After that explosion,

I fell into a coma for a few weeks.

When I woke up, I found out that Badin was sacrificed.

Chief told me

that both Badin and Luger died during that explosion.

I didn't even have the chance to attend Badin's funeral.

Was that why you were so strict with me?

Coach,

this isn't your fault.

It isn't Badin's fault either.

I can understand his feelings.

Since we chose to become cops,

we'd definitely encounter risky situations.

This is our dream.

This is our choice.

But no matter what, he was a part of my team.

I should be responsible for his safety.

But this is the fault of the criminals.

Luger was the one who killed Badin.

He has already been brought to justice.

That's something I've been wondering until now.

From the theft in the museum,

the news of the abandoned temple,

to the human trafficking incident,

all these signs are telling me that he's still alive.

Due to Badin's death,

you're worried

that Grandma Lek and Beibo will be in danger.

That's why you want to protect them.

I...

I want to assist you in investigating the case with Luger.

And, I will keep this a secret.

Thank you.

However, as your superior,

I won't let you take such risks.

If you truly wish to help me,

you can help me gather information and evidence.

I don't want you to end up like Badin.

All information related to Luger Case is in here.

It's inside the folder with my name on it.

Now, you don't need to steal someone else's diary.

Understood.

What are you doing?

Wasu and I loved to make pinky promises

when we were young.

I'm not your elder brother.

That's unnecessary.

I promise.

But I won't

make a pinky promise with you.

Let's hurry back to the resort.

Da called me this morning.

He said Yuthaichai lied about his flight.

He didn't fly to another prefecture.

Roger that.

(Mu Dessert House)

It's me.

Our shop is closed today.

I have a huge order to prepare.

Mu,

I'm sorry

that I couldn't attend your birthday celebration.

I truly wanted to attend it.

However, I couldn't do it.

I'm not sure

what you mean by that.

If you still wish

to be my friend,

you can tell me the truth once you're ready.

What's wrong?

I'm fine.

Mu,

I...

Just tell me what's on your mind.

I don't understand Wasu.

It's obvious that he fancies you.

But why didn't he explain himself?

Once he's done with his affairs,

he should explain himself to me.

Mu, are you sure about that?

Thank you.

Okay.

(How to seduce a man)

(Occasional eye contact)

Miss Nicha.

Hi, Mr. Yuthaichai.

We can sit together if you don't mind.

What a coincidence.

I was planning to seek your guidance about jewelry.

It's my honor to help out a gorgeous girl like you.

Vita, stall him for me.

(Please clean the room)

Okay.

Hello.

I'm on my way there.

I will pass the document to you.

Alright, I'll pass it to you later.

Sorry about that.

I forgot to take my stuff.

You don't need to clean the room.

Okay.

Okay, thank you.

Don't mention it.

For red jewelry, it must be Thailand's ruby, am I right?

Oh, you...

I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable about jewelry as well.

I couldn't believe it.

You flatter me.

I just so happened to read about them in magazines.

I'm not as knowledgeable as you.

Oh, by the way,

you have to attend tonight's banquet in pairs, right?

Mr. Yuthaichai, did you come here alone?

Erm, I...

Sorry about that.

Did I ask you too many questions?

I always have many questions

for someone I'm interested in.

Don't be angry at me, okay?

Why don't we shift to another topic?

Vita,

I need Yuthaichai's computer password.

What a shame.

I tried to order some coconut egg tarts just now.

But the waiter said

they were reserved for the VIPS of the auction tonight.

The chef here is famous for his desserts.

Did you make the reservation?

That's right.

Miss Nicha, do you want to have them?

Yeah.

I don't take sweet food after 4 p.m.

It's no wonder

you have a gorgeous figure...

Sure, no problem.

I can make arrangements for it

if you want to try them now.

Sir, do you need anything?

Tell the head chef to come here.

And,

tell him that this lady

wants to try the egg tarts he made.

Go now.

Wait.

I think

you should provide them with top-tier treatment for their services.

For example, you should head to the kitchen and tell him in person.

And,

I heard that he's a tough person to deal with.

You may go first.

I...

I want you to serve me

personally,

okay?

Okay.

Your wish

is my will.

I'll be back in a second.

Wait here.

Okay.

Where did you learn that from?

I got the password.

2, 3, 6, 9, 8, 5.

Vita, I'm in.

Here you go.

Wow.

Coconut egg tarts.

I was supervising the chef when he was making them.

They look delicious.

(Auction Guest Name List)

Here, let me feed you.

Let me feed you.

This is so delicious.

He does live up to his name.

The head chef said he would deliver a special meal to my room tonight.

Do you want to join me?

Sorry about that.

Speak.

Excuse me,

but I have to go.

I'm very sorry.

Contact me anytime

once you make up your mind, okay?

Are you returning to your room?

Vita, I'm almost done.

Try your best to stall him.

Wait.

I...

I wish to know more about

gems and jewelry.

Miss Nicha,

there's a safe in my room.

There are quite a few of them inside.

You can call me

when you're ready.

I'll make a move first.

Mr. Yuthaichai.

Did you forget to take this?

This isn't mine.

Mr. Yuthaichai,

I'm already outside your room.

Aren't you going to invite me inside?

Miss Nicha,

you came to my room alone.

Aren't you afraid that Mr. Bowen

might get suspicious of you?

If you and I

keep quiet about it,

I suppose no one will know.

I'm good at keeping secrets.

I can keep this secret for you.

Miss Nicha,

you're so good at this.

I

love it.

You're passionate and proactive.

But you have to wait for me. I'll be back in a second.

Wait!

I think

you look sexy

in this shirt.

Nicha.

Nicha.

Go!

Hurry!

Look at you.

What's wrong?

You're igniting my passion.

I can't hold it in anymore.

This time, it's my turn.

Hey, you!

Sorry about this.

I remembered that I had an appointment with Wen.

I need to go.

Wait! You!

How could you leave like this?

Hey.

What about this?

We can see each other again after the event.

Coach,

wait for me!

Vita, come here.

Check out the USB's content.

(Please enter the password)

(Incorrect password)

Ming, I need you

to do something for me later.

(Police Investigators Team)

Han,

I don't understand this.

Captain,

all of the documents are encrypted.

It's an international encryption algorithm.

If we decrypt it by force,

the documents will be deleted.

According to the technology we have,

I think we need 72 hours

to decrypt it.

Alright.

Meanwhile, we'll keep him under surveillance.

You guys have to hurry.

Besides that,

Xin and Yuthaichai used virtual identities to make illegal transactions.

You guys should keep an eye on the cash flow

and see if you can find the name of their virtual accounts.

Roger that.

(Facebook page)

(Facebook ID: Bowen, Theme: My Partner)

Now, we just need to wait for the decrypted password

and the interrogation of the Zaiyongdanacai family.

What else do we need to do?

Once we figure out the societal ties related to the victim,

we'll categorize them and analyze them accordingly.

Thus,

we need to gather information and determine the investigative direction,

including the interrogation detail from the Zaiyongdanacai family.

After that, we'll wait for Captain and Vita to send us their information

before we compile them

and hasten the process.

Can I have that?

What are you looking at?

Nothing.

Thank you.

(Transaction Records)

Da.

According to the financial report we received from Vita,

I realized

that Miss Xin kept buying expensive wine in this store.

And, the dates of their purchase,

storage,

and disposal

are all recorded.

I went to retrieve the surveillance camera footage

after receiving the report.

I realized that although Miss Xin did visit that place often,

she wasn't there to see Mr. Wasu.

However,

she only met this lady once

in the place.

It's a female designer called Apinya.

She usually works overseas.

I did my investigation.

Luckily, she returned to Thailand not long ago.

We can

meet her by today.

Why is she so slow?

Mr. Yuthaichai.

Miss Nicha.

You really ignite my desire.

But that's fine.

I believe we have enough time to know each other better

next time.

I'm telling you this

because I might fly to the US

after this event.

The US?

Unfortunately, the company needs my directives for an important project.

However,

that's all I can say.

What a shame.

I was trying to find a chance to thank you for the warm welcome.

That's fine.

I'll give you a warm welcome

when you come to the US.

I believe that we'll have plenty of time to know each other by then.

Thank you.

I'll make a move first.

Okay.

If we keep this up, Mr. Bowen will definitely suspect something.

I've known Xin for two or three months.

I was shocked too

when I received the news.

I will do my best to cooperate with you guys.

Thank you, Miss Apinya.

If so, you can start by

telling me your relationship with Miss Xin.

She contacted me first.

Xin said she wanted to improve the standard of fabrics in Thailand.

So, she's just a business partner.

Can I put it that way?

(SMS: 5 million baht transferred, 3 million baht transferred, 4 million baht transferred)

You can put it that way.

When I mentioned the term "business partner",

why did you look like you were absent-minded?

Something just feels off.

It's something outside of work.

Xin

borrowed money from me.

She borrowed money from you?

If we release him now,

it'll be difficult for us to capture him in the future.

I know that.

However, we can only wait.

I'll repeat your mission

during the event later.

Keep an eye on Yuthaichai.

And, we'll keep an eye on the table reserved

by Miss Xin.

Maybe someone new will appear.

I know the table number.

A08 It's A08.

You can answer your call.

No, I won't.

Such calls have been occurring frequently.

They said something was wrong with my bank account.

I told them

that it wasn't my account.

Can you help me take a look?

There were dozens of SMS.

It was something like

the transaction records of millions of baht.

Does this mean I've fallen prey to the scam now?

Please wait.

Hello, Da?

There's a new situation.

Captain said that Miss Xin might have another bank account.

And, it's an overseas account that she registered with another person's name.

That person might be Miss Apinya.

I will send her name

and account details to you now.

This auction item is exquisite.

It's a set of jewelry that includes a necklace, two earrings, and a ring.

The starting bid is 500,000 baht.

Each raise will increase the bid by 100,000 baht.

The bid begins now.

I found it!

- Ning, what have you found? - Transaction records in Faroe Islands.

Captain called us and said that Yuthaichai plans to escape tonight.

We can only try to enter the password ourselves. We only have three chances.

If we fail, the intel will be destroyed.

Da, what kind of number password do you put on your phone?

It's either my birthday

or the birthday of the girl I fancy.

- What are you saying? - Ning.

What about you?

The code of love.

What? I don't know. I said nothing.

Have you tried putting Yuthaichai's birthday?

(Please enter the password)

Faroe Islands?

This is a 24.70-karat ruby ring.

It is made with slender pillow cuts.

It is verified by the SSEF and AGL

to be a Burma Ruby. It's certified by the SSEF

to have an exceptional hue, which is known as pigeon blood.

And, this is the first appearance of this ruby ring on an auction.

The starting bid

for this ruby ring

is seven million baht.

Make it 20 million baht.

Keep an eye on him.

Don't let him leave your sight.

We can only show our arrest warrant

after the deal is completed.

Now, we have evidence of Yuthaichai's and Songticha's collusion.

The fund raised by this auction

will be donated to charity

in order to improve the lives of those who live in poverty.

Next,

I shall announce this.

The bid begins.

This is how they launder money.

They transfer the auction fund to Yuthaichai's company account.

After that, they'll transfer it to the mastermind.

Using charity as an excuse,

they'll transfer it to the buyer in secret.

They're doing dirty deeds using charity as an excuse.

I'll definitely bring them to justice.

Mr. Sadee for seven million baht.

Anyone else?

We just discovered Miss Xin's secret bank account.

She did so in order to hide her identity.

Thus, she used Miss Apinya's details

to register a shell company in the Faroe Islands.

- Do you guys want to try it? - Ming, I don't think so.

This is too easy to be true.

Ning?

To be honest, I'm timid. I don't want to try it.

Coach?

Just give it a try.

10 million baht.

Mr. Suteh for 10 million baht.

Anyone with a higher bid?

15 million baht.

Miss Pooboh for 15 million baht.

Anyone with a higher bid?

Mr. Yuthaichai?

20 million baht.

Mr. Yuthaichai for 20 million baht.

If so, I'll start the countdown.

20 million baht, one.

20 million baht, two.

Next.

20 million baht, three.

The bid will end at 20 million baht.

Deal.

The S99 red ruby belongs to Mr. Yuthaichai now. Congratulations.

Thank you.

20 million baht has been transferred to your bank account.

Okay.

Coach, he's out of my sight.

Over there, Vita. Let's go.

Excuse me.

- Mr. Han! - Mr. Han!

Mr. Han!

Mr. Han! Wake up!

We did it!

- Ming, how did it go? - Captain.

The documents have been decrypted. We have key evidence of his crime.

You may arrest Yuthaichai now.

Good job.

What happened before we left?

The confetti.

Over there!

Mr. Yuthaichai,

we have evidence of your crime. Please follow us to record your statement.

Thank you for cooperating with us.

You helped us to decrypt the documents.

Through our investigation,

we discovered illegal transactions involving huge sums in your laptop.

I was just doing some investments.

However, these investments are related to corruption and bribery.

Hey.

I have the right to decide

where to invest the company's fund and its capital flow.

All of the family members are clear

with the decisions I make.

Is that so?

But do your family members know that you used Miss Xin as a middleman

to collect these funds for you in a company in the Faroe Islands?

Do they know about that?

How did you guys find out?

By monitoring your bank account,

we discovered

that you registered a company on that island.

(Certificate of Incorporation & Account Transaction Records)

(Account Transaction Records)

So,

what's your relationship with Miss Xin?

I heard that my husband was arrested.

You brought all these clothes out from Miss Xin's unit, right?

The perfume you're using

is the same as the scent we found in Miss Xin's wardrobe.

If we send it for analysis,

it's likely that we'll discover your DNA on Miss Xin's clothing.

Hmph.

My clothes

and luggage

are my personal belongings.

You guys have no right

to search them unless you have a search warrant.

Listen.

I will wait for my lawyer to come.

If not, I will not utter a single word.

Fine.

But take a look at this.

(Arrest warrant)

Fine.

Xin and I

do have an affair.

I want you to detain Ms. Sichun.

Arrest her for intentional homicide.

After that, release Mr. Yuthaichai.

However, we can convict him with evidence of his money laundering.

Coach, you don't believe in Ms. Sichun.

That's why you want to use Yuthaichai as bait

in order to obtain more clues.

Go and release Yuthaichai.

Just say we don't have enough evidence to arrest him.
