[Advance Bravely]

[Episode 14]

Big bro, is the food ready?

I'm starving.

What's this?

This is a northeastern delicacy. Chicken steeped in Hua Diao wine.

I cooked it with Hua Daio wine that was aged for eight years.

Try it.

It's rude for me to start eating first. Let's eat together when you're done cooking.

Do as you please.

This is delicious! My goodness!

Braised ribs. This is another northeastern delicacy.

Delicious! Amazing!

Where did you buy the pickled vegetables?

I made it myself. The ones sold at supermarkets are tasteless.

It's delicious!

The food is all right.

Yum.

Son, why are you back so late?

I had to work overtime.

- Wash your hands before eating. - I ate.

You're done with dinner again? Why do you keep eating out lately?

I get hungry during overtime.

- I ate something quick. - Well, eat more. These are your favorite dishes.

I'll pass.

Eating late at night is bad for health.

- Xia Yao, do you have a- - I'm going to bathe in my room. I'm exhausted.

It's so hard to meet you.

I'm busy working overtime every day.

Why did you get fatter from working more?

I got fatter?

Yeah.

Maybe it's swelling.

I haven't been getting enough sleep.

Peng Ze, it's your turn.

Play a round or two for me.

Come on, drink with me.

How's it going with the girl you're wooing?

See the girl over there with the baseball cap?

She's the one I'm wooing.

Her looks are so-so.

Her looks aren't outstanding, but I love her personality.

She's really wild.

Oh yeah, you haven't told me.

How's it going with you guys?

It's going pretty well.

Look at her.

She's really having fun.

Now, she can't stay away from us.

Everyday, she follows us around everywhere.

She can't stay away from you two?

You think that's good?

Come on, don't just talk about me.

How have you been lately?

Same old, same old.

There's a lot of girls after you, right?

What girls?

Does that girly guy like you for real?

Why do I feel there's something wrong

with the way he looks at you?

Him?

We are together every single day,

of course he thinks about me.

Why don't you guys just be together?

How can that happen?

We're both men!

What if you successfully get the girl

and Li Zhen also fell in love with you.

What would you do?

Have a direct conversation.

We've already talked about this.

If he can't control himself,

that's his problem.

Don't worry.

I have everything under control.

I know clearly what I should and shouldn't do.

I won't do deviant things.

But what if he's super nice to you,

and makes you depend on him.

The time you spend together with him makes you feel really comfortable.

What would you do then?

I still won't do things that goes against my principles.

Even if that happens,

I'll forget about it from the bottom of my heart.

We're men.

How can we do that to ourselves?

I'm leaving first.

But we just started talking.

I've still got things to do.

Let's talk some other time.

What did I do to annoy him?

He was perfectly fine when he got here.

- Dayu, here. - Yeah?

Try the shrimp I cooked.

Don't worry, Aunty. I won't hold back when I'm here.

That's good. I love watching you enjoy your food.

By the way, I'll go get the pickles your uncle sent over. They taste pretty good.

Peng Ze called me. He said you're feeling down.

What's up?

I'm fine. I just feel tired.

Lately, I've only had one wish.

- What's that? - Catching Wang Zhishui, that scumbag.

Is he still on your mind?

I'm losing my sleep and appetite thinking about him.

You're pretty voracious.

That's a different matter.

- Xiao Hui. - Yeah?

Look at the pimples on my face. They're ruining me.

How am I supposed to find a partner?

Looks don't matter when looking for a lover. Look at how handsome Mr. Xia is.

He's single like you.

Comparison with others is toxic.

He used to be so gloomy, but he's become so sprightly.

- You... - Calm down. The phone's ringing.

Hello. Huh? You caught them? Okay, I'll be right there.

Hey, come with me.

- What's going on? - Just follow me. I'll explain later.

Hello.

Darling. Let me tell you about a dream I had last night.

What did you dream about?

I dreamed that I caught Wang Zhishui.

What happened after that?

Then, I lopped off his arms.

I chopped off his fingers one by one.

That's vicious.

All right, I'm hanging up. I have to work.

- Okay, bye-bye. - Sure, bye.

I thought it was something severe.

In the end, there was only one drunk punk. Why did I even take three other guys with me?

Exactly. His limbs were like sticks.

Thank goodness you didn't take Xia Yao with you.

Xia Yao can probably lift him up with one hand.

What are you guys talking about?

His uncle kept losing his liquor. The thief was caught.

How was he caught?

Here's what happened. This thief is really odd.

He never takes the liquor with him. He finishes it on the spot.

- Guess what happened. - What happened?

He got drunk and slept all the way until the morning.

My uncle came back and found him.

Th-That's ridiculous!

What's his name?

I think it was... Li Zhishui?

Wasn't it Wang Zhishui?

I don't remember anyway.

I can only remember the last two words. The myth of Dayu and the great flood, right?

Where's he right now?

He's at my uncle's house. We made a police report, so he might've been arrested.

Take me there right away.

D-Do you know this person?

Don't pry. Just take me there.

Come on.

Do you want to chop off those fingers yourself?

What are you talking about?

I have good news for you. I might've caught Wang Zhishui.

This guy has the same name. He might be the one you're looking for.

Okay, I'll send you the address.

Where is it?

Over here.

- Are the police inside? - Yeah, they're keeping an eye on him.

Where is he?

Locked inside.

You can't go in.

I'll kill this guy today.

The police are interrogating him in there.

Besides, you haven't even seen his face.

How are you so sure he's the right guy?

There aren't that many thieves called Wang Zhishui.

He's the one. I'd recognize him even if he's turned into ashes.

Be quiet.

- Where are you from? - Talk to the police later.

- Hebei, Langfang. - Don't mumble threats here.

- Isn't he from Shandong? - Hebei, Langfang?

That's near here.

I can head home once a month.

Isn't he an orphan?

He really cheated the hell out of you.

Take him back to the station for now.

Don't fret.

Do you know how much I hate him?

The clothes I wore when I carried him on my back, and the sheets and sofa cover he slept on.

I burned all of those.

Fine, I got it. Let's be serious.

He stole from you twice. Did he leave any evidence behind?

Well, he did.

I just told you. I burned everything.

I told you to keep records, but you refused.

If you did, you could've handed everything over for investigations.

You lost tens of thousands.

That's enough to keep him in jail for a few years.

Right now, stealing three bottles of liquor is all that's on his record.

Those don't even cost ¥2,000 in total. That amount can't get him sentenced.

At most, he'll be locked up in the detention cell for 15 days.

I don't want him in jail for years. I don't want to get my items back either.

I just want to catch him.

If he's really locked up for a couple of years, how long must I wait for him to be released?

Fine, whatever.

It's so late. Why haven't you left?

My work is piling up, so I'll probably sleep in the office.

Are you leaving Yuan Ru at home alone?

I didn't. She's traveling abroad.

That's perfect. I just got off work.

My mom might wake up if I return this late. Let me crash here for a night.

Don't take advantage of this.

What's the point of playing this game all day long?

Numbskull.

When I was in the army, electronics were prohibited.

That's especially so for snipers like me. Our eyesight had to be perfect.

It's been years since you left the army.

Why haven't you kept up with the times?

A mobile phone like yours can't even use WeChat.

Anyway, why haven't I seen your sister around?

I told you, she's traveling.

I rarely saw her even during my training here.

What's that matter? Miss her?

You aren't even fond of her. What's the point of keeping her here?

Do you want to feel annoyed?

Isn't your sister your world? Why would you spare a thought for me?

That's not it. I'm doing what's best for both of you.

You can take a horse to the water but you can't make it drink.

Since there isn't any possibility, I might as well encourage her to give up.
