[Episode 26]

Show him your ticket.

Luo,

listen.

About the instant noodles inside,

don't cook them
as soon as you get on the train.

Got it.

See if you like any
of the boxed lunches.

If you do, go and get one.

Don't worry about the money.

Over there.

Also,

there are some sausages,

spiced corned eggs, and roasted chicken.

These are all your favorites.

Remember to eat them.

Got it, Mom.

Don't be nervous.

Just do your best.

Luo won't get nervous.

I'm not nervous at all, Dad.

I'll take the bag.

Zhou Luo,

this is a protective charm
we got for you

from the Guanyin Temple.

It's said it will bless you
for a successful exam.

You believe in this?

When you come back
after passing the exam,

you'll probably

be even more arrogant.

Good luck, bro.

Then I'll keep this close to my heart.

It's coming.

Put the bag on the rack.

Take care.

Remember to tell us
when you arrive.

Yes, remember to tell us
when you arrive.

Just do your best!

You can do it.

Take care.

Zhou Luo, we'll wait for your return.

Do your best in the exam, you hear me?

Go for it!

Are you not going to see me off?

No,

I'm not going.

Just hide in the corner of the station

and give me a glance from afar.

Well, no.

Then I'll take some photos for you
when I arrive in Beijing.

Focus on your exam.
That's what matters.

[Tender Light]

Nan Ya,

the school in Beijing is excellent,

and I did pretty well in the exam.

How about you?

Every time when I leave Qingshui Town,

I can feel the vastness
and freedom of the world.

Yeah, I've got everything.

Everyone is striving
for their dreams here.

You will definitely love it here.

Music,

literature,

and poetry.

Everything beautiful that you pursue

is possible to become real here.

Believe in yourself.

Leaving Qingshui Town

will allow you to enter
a whole new world.

Look,

this is the second case,

very similar.

You take a look first.

There's also another one...

[Plaintiff]

Why hasn't Xu Yi arrived yet?

What if he doesn't come today?

It's okay.

Even if he's absent,

we can still proceed with the judgment.

The evidence of his domestic violence
is very compelling now.

In a sense, you could say

that you're already divorced.

But in terms of the custody battle,

your only disadvantage

is that your income is unstable

while your daughter is ill.

[Defendant]

Tonight, let's go

to the student union's
millennium party.

I've heard they're also going
to set off fireworks.

Sure.

Have you decided what wishes

you want to make
on Millennium Night?

I'm not telling you.

I got accepted with a lower score.

I knew you could.

Oh,

I bought the train ticket for today.

Wait for me to come back.

Let's welcome
the millennium together.

Okay.

I heard

that wishes made
on Millennium Night

always come true.

Of course.

It's even more effective
than making a wish to shooting stars.

How are you doing?

I'm doing well.

Wait for me then.

You come back so fast?

Can I come in?

No.

Chen Ling,

I've known that you two
have been together for a while.

I've already submitted
the divorce petition to the court.

Even if Xu Yi doesn't sign it,

we've already initiated
the divorce proceedings.

Are you willing to help me convince him?

I just want the custody of Wanwan.

Let's both give each other

a chance to start anew.

Mr. Li.

I'm on my way back now.

Alright, see you in a bit.

Anyone else wants to take the bus?

Where did you go?

Beijing.

What for?

To take an exam.

I almost forgot.

You need to take
the college entrance exam again, right?

Is it okay for me to sit here?

Anyone else wants to take the bus?

We will set off immediately.

We are leaving soon, lad.

We are leaving now.

So even wealthy people like you
take the minibus, huh?

Sir, let's depart.

I just came back

from a business trip.

Where do you want to go?

Qingshui.

Two yuan.

I hit you before

because I was angry.

I've compensated you with money

and I've been detained.

You should be able
to get over it, right?

I don't think
you have apologized to me yet.

Apologize?

They all say

you're very clever

and excel in your studies,

but there are some things

you can't learn from books.

I want to give you a piece of advice:

don't meddle in other people's affairs.

I only know that assaulting someone
is against the law.

Between husband and wife,

hitting and scolding each other
is a way of showing affection.

After some time,
we will be reconciled again.

It's not a big deal.

In the eyes of others,
you're just a joke,

don't you understand?

Has Nan Ya got over it yet?

You all saw me hitting Nan Ya.

Do you know

how good

Nan Ya is to me at home?

She takes care of me

and brings me food and drinks.

We've been
through all the dark times together.

Those dark times

have bound us tightly together.

We are inseparable.

Is that so?

Well, if that's the case,

why did she try to elope
with someone else?

All those

were just jokes.

We have a daughter.

We are bound by blood.

What does it mean to be bound by blood?

It means your genes

are intertwined

with someone else's.

They are so deeply entwined

that you can't sever the bound
no matter how hard you try.

Alright, you don't need
to tell me these things.

I'm not interested
in your family affairs.

Mr. Li.

Mr. Li,

I just came back from the city.

Keep your belongings secured.

Thanks.

[Wudaokou Department Store]
Do you like photography?

Just some casual shots.

Mr. Li. It's nothing.

Just now, the bus jerked,

and the signal was a little weak.

I'll come back to visit you now.

Don't come.

The police are already investigating
your case.

There's really nothing I can do
to help you.

You should turn yourself in
as soon as possible.

You jerk, listen,

don't push me so hard.

If the police want to arrest me,
then so be it.

Xu Jian,

right now we're both in the same boat.

If the police really come to me,

I can't guarantee what I'll say to them.

Xu Jian,

what benefits do you get by doing this?

Xu Yi,

you and that scoundrel Liu Changshui
split the money,

leaving nothing for me.

Now he's absconded with the money,

and you want me
to take the blame for you.

Well, we'll have to renegotiate
the price.

We can talk about it.

But let's talk
after the New Year.

I can't wait that long.

I'll come see you today.

Xu Yi, it's time for dinner.

Coming.

Hurry up.

After the meal,

go and watch the fireworks with me
by the riverside tonight.

There will be so many people.

Let's not join in the fun.

I want to join in the fun.

It's already millennium.

Today's an exception.

Let's have some drinks.

I hope

both of us can have a fresh start.

Chen Ling,

I'll give you a toast.

Over the years,

I've made you suffer,

but I've always remembered

your kindness to me.

I'm in trouble now

and maybe I won't ever

get better in the future.

No matter what happens,

I hope you can be happy.

You're not allowed to say
such pessimistic things.

I've never been with you

for your money.

I know

you might lose everything

in the bridge case.

But I'm not afraid.

I'm willing to stand by you forever.

We can just start anew.

We've missed each other
and taken wrong turns in the past,

so we should cherish
each other more now, shouldn't we?

Actually,

I'm content

with what you said today.

I don't need you to apologize to me,

and I don't need any compensation.

I just want you

to give me a firm commitment
to our future.

Xu Yi,

can you divorce Nan Ya?

Okay.

Once I settle

all these messy affairs,

I'll divorce her.

Nan Ya

came to see me this afternoon.

She came here to see you?

Why did she come here?

She said

she knew everything.

She doesn't blame any of us.

As long as you're willing to divorce,

she won't demand anything else

but custody of Wanwan.

That's impossible.

She said that to me herself.

I'll never let her
have the custody of Wanwan!

We can have our own child.
Isn't that good?

You know,

Wanwan was raised by her mother
since she was little,

and she's closest to Nan Ya.

Yes.

I can put aside the past for you.

Being a stepmother is fine by me.

But her health isn't good.

If anything happens in the future,

who will believe me?

We'll talk about this later.

After you divorce Nan Ya,

she won't prevent you
from seeing your daughter.

You and your family
can also be reconciled.

Your parents are getting old.

You can't go without seeing them
for the rest of your life, right?

Besides, they can help you
with the bridge case.

Nan Ya won't come
and cause trouble again.

Don't you want to have
a normal family with me?

Don't you want to be with me openly?

Let me think about it.

Nan Ya has already filed for divorce
with the court.

You can't delay it any longer.

It's better to make a clean break today.

Either with me

or her.

Okay.

[Xu Yi]

Nan Ya.

You are back?

Check this out.

[Grade Reduction Notice]

You're awesome.

I'm genuinely happy for you.

Zhou Luo is righteous and kind.

He's still so young,

not knowing what the future holds

or how long forever lasts.

I'm not afraid
that he will leave me one day,

but I'm afraid if I indulge myself
only once

might make his life heavy.

They won't accept us

being together.

And if we get together,
it would cause harm to many people,

maybe

even to him.

All I want is to see him

safely go through these few months,

advancing towards his bright future.

Only then

can I find peace.

The dream

must eventually come to an end.

[January 2000, 8 hours after Zhou Luo
assisted in the investigation]

Let's go, Wanwan.

Does it taste good?

You like it?

Mom, aren't you going to eat?

I'll eat in a moment.

Liu, a bowl of wontons, please.

Help me deliver it
to the nurse's station, okay?

Sure thing.

Alright.

She can get dressed now.

Okay.

Sit up.

You're really acquitted?

Why was Zhou Luo arrested then?

Could it be that Xu Yi
was killed by him?

You two are really...

What kind of act are you putting on?

How's Wanwan's recovery going?

Well,

what's your relationship

with Zhou Luo?

Why is it that every time
Wanwan went to see the doctor,

he was the one accompanying her?

Dr. Jiang,

it's your working hours now.

Come on, I'm just showing my concern
as a friend.

When you were helping Xu Yi
destroy the medical records,

you certainly weren't treating me
like a friend.

Don't accuse me falsely, okay?

Don't worry.

I haven't told anyone about it.

As for who did this,

it's a secret between us.

I hope you leave yourself some leeway

and make sure
to treat my daughter's illness well.

I have been giving her good treatment
all along alright.

Every time she comes,
I do all the tests for her.

I make adjustments immediately

at the slightest change.

You can ask the Zhou family
if you don't believe me.

Thank you then.

Take this.

He is

very stubborn.

He's about to talk.

We can't rush it too much.

If we can't get any leads from him,
we'll have to release him.

Chen,

there's a call
from the forensic department

asking you to go over.

They said there's a new development.

A simple autopsy

makes it difficult to distinguish
between a backhand

and a forehand stab wound.

When I first

saw this wound,

I had a slight suspicion.

So, through repeated comparisons,

I found the issue.

Look,

Xu Yi's knife wound
is clearly on the right.

On the right?

Yes.

According to Nan Ya's testimony,

Xu Yi was trying to strangle her
at the time.

Nan Ya grabbed the knife from the table

and stabbed Xu Yi in the back
with a backhand motion.

It might be like this.

Choke me.

When Nan Ya stabbed Xu Yi in the back
with a backhand motion,

she was limited by her arm's length.

At this point,
she held the knife with her right hand,

and she must have stabbed
the left side of Xu Yi's back.

But now,

the wound was on the right side.

I'll make you die first.

I'll kill you.

While this action is within the range
of her arm's length,

reaching such a distant position

in a moment of urgency

seems unreasonable.

So, it's possible

that there could have been
a third person at the scene

who stabbed Xu Yi from behind.

But that's not why I asked you
to come here this time.

Do you have any discoveries?

The stab wound to Xu Yi's chest
was the fatal injury,

causing cardiac tamponade

and leading to his death.

During our previous autopsy examination,

we found that Xu Yi's wound
was a compound injury,

displaying noticeable pauses
in the knife cuts.

Through our analysis and comparison,

we discovered some new suspicious points

regarding the cause of the injury.

What does that mean?

Lowly woman.

If Xu Yi had slipped on the food

and fallen onto Nan Ya,
getting stabbed in the process,

his knife wound
should have been very smooth.

But now,

this knife wound shows traces
of back-and-forth pulling.

Could it be

that Nan Ya's wasn't that powerful,

causing the wound to look like this

during the process
of pulling out the knife?

It doesn't seem like the case.

It's more likely

that during the stabbing,

the two were struggling,

one desperately stabbing inward

while the other
grabbed the stabber's hand,

struggling to push it out,

causing the back-and-forth motion.

Now we need to make Zhou Luo confess.

So, who do you think killed Xu Yi?

From the evidence,

it should be Zhou Luo.

As for the blunt wound,

do you really think Nan Ya

could overpower a man?

So, what you're saying

is that Xu Yi was trying to kill
Zhou Luo at the time,

and during their struggle,

Nan Ya stabbed Xu Yi

from behind.

Which gave Zhou Luo the upper hand,

allowing him to plunge the knife
into Xu Yi's chest.

If that was the case,

it would require two knives.

Isn't that Nan Ya?

Her case for killing Xu Yi
has been settled?

So she's released now, right?

Isn't it considered self-defense?

Keep your voice down.

Mom.

It's her.

Yes, it's her.

After all, she did kill someone.

It's hard to believe
she just walked away

without any consequences.

The order of stabs could be different.

First, stabbing him,

then he fell down,

and they could stab him again.

Didn't the forensic examiner
just tell us

that the stab to the chest
was the fatal injury?

After Xu Yi was stabbed,
he would have fallen in agony

and been left with no power
to fight back.

So what exactly happened at the scene

to make the other person
stab him again?

We need to put some pressure on Zhou Luo

to find a lead through him.

I feel like the muffled voices

recorded in that cassette tape

are telling an unfinished story.

The tape has been sent
to the Provincial PSB for restoration.

It won't be back for a while.

Alright.

Let's split up.

You interrogate Zhou Luo.

As for me,

can I ask someone to go with me?

Who?

Let me send the child back.

You're living your life
as if nothing happened, huh?

You feel you are wronged

and helpless?

You're the one who killed Xu Yi.

Zhou Luo took the blame for you!

I'm currently out on bail pending trial.

What bail pending trial?

Then why was Zhou Luo arrested?

What really happened

that night?

Zhou Luo will be fine.

You are lying!

I waited outside his house all night.

He wasn't even there.

You're only concerned about yourself.

You don't care about his future at all.

Do you know how hard it is for him
to get admitted to Jinghua University

with a lower score?

You're just a big liar.

A big liar!

When the whole town laughed at you

and talked behind your back,

who was there to defend you?

We skipped the classes to help you.

You have no idea how much
we have done for you,

and the risks we took for you.

But don't tell me you forgot

who went to Xu Yi's company

to find Xu Yi with you
in the middle of the night.

You have a murderous heart.

Anyone who gets close to you
becomes unlucky.

No wonder even a good person
like Chen Ling hates you.

I'm not wrong.

You're still lying!

On his birthday,

I saw him coming out of your shop

all cheerfully.

When he was in the hospital,

you made him so restless.

Why?

Why is it that he always

has his eyes on you?

His emotions
are always affected by you.

Why?

Why?

Don't think nonsense, Zhang Qingli.

I don't want
to think nonsense either.

I'd rather believe
he's been lying to me.

I want to go to Beijing with him

and get into a good university.

Nan Ya.

Nan Ya, please, I beg you.

Tell me.

Did you and Zhou Luo

secretly get together?

Nan Ya,

answer her.

Guixiang.

Why aren't you saying anything?

Nan Ya.

Did you seduce him?

I didn't.

Did you do it?

I didn't.

Did you seduce my Zhou Luo?

What exactly is your relationship then?

Tell me clearly today.

Zhou Luo

gave up his future for you.

Why?

You all claim to love Zhou Luo,

yet you come to my house
and pressure me.

Do you have to tarnish

his reputation?

You shut up!

Nan Ya,

hasn't the Zhou family treated you well?

Haven't I been good to Wanwan?

That's not what I'm saying.

Zhou Luo took beatings for you,
and I took care of Wanwan.

I even lent money to you
to pay Wanwan's medical expenses.

Why would you harm him?

I didn't.

In Qingshui Town,

you are the only ones
who treat me the best.

No one else.

Then why?

Why did he end up in the police station?

Tell me why!

I can't tell you.

Every word I speak could harm him.

Zhou Luo hasn't done

a single bad thing.

I won't allow it.

I won't allow you to ruin his life.

You need to go to the police station now

and tell the police

what you were hiding

that night.

Bring Zhou Luo back.

Zhou Luo didn't do anything wrong.

Guixiang.

You go back home

and wait.

Trust me.

He'll be back soon.

He'll be back soon.

I found a knife.

Where was the knife at that time?

It was on the table.

What did you do after you got the knife?

I told Xu Yi

not to come any closer.

If he came closer,
I would stab him with the knife.

He was holding an axe,
and you had a knife.

Yet you threatened him?

You would have been killed by the axe
before you could stab him.

That's not how it was.

He was just trying to scare me.

He didn't actually intend to hurt me.

You slipped.

If he hadn't actually attacked you,

then it wouldn't have been self-defense.

You slipped.

If he hadn't actually attacked you,

then it wouldn't have been self-defense.

Every word you say

could be scrutinized by the police,

leading to relentless questioning

and potentially causing
your entire statement to collapse.

So,

everything that happened tonight

needs to be deeply imprinted
in your mind

and acknowledged as reality.
