[Interrogation Room]

Are you ready?

This cellphone was given to you by the person who kidnapped Hu Dayong?

It was also him who arranged me to infiltrate the police station

in order to get close to you.

Xue Bing already checked. The cellphone's number is an anonymous SIM card.

All the information is fake.

Tell us the details of your communication with him.

You asked me last time...

How did you know I had the clues?

[Lu Fengping]

He told me before I joined the police team.

And he also provided me the clue about Hu Panpan.

After confirming that there's a high possibility that Hu Dayong was the murderer of my mom,

all I could think of was to find out the truth.

I knew you were worried about me during that period of time.

I also believe that based on your capability,

maybe you would find the clue very quickly to where I hid Hu Panpan

and come after me.

So he arranged my fake death in order to get away.

That evening, he planned the detonation of the gas tanks.

He set up the path for me to escape and also arranged the corpse at the scene.

At the same time, he also handed over Hu Dayong to me.

By the way, I have met him in the office before.

He is the CEO of Y-Star Group, Bai Yaxing.

Bai Yaxing.

Isn't he the informant that the Lan County Police arranged

to inspect the hallucinogen den back then?

I already told you

everything I know.

Lu Fengping, you go with me to find Bai Yaxing.

You know him.

The station hopes you will cooperate.

But we will also monitor you.

We must be able to contact you on your cellphone at all times.

Is that okay?

I understand.

Uncuff him.

[Desire Catcher]

[Episode 19]

You should go see Professor Ling's first.

Why should I go?

You haven't seen him since you came back from Yang County.

I... I-I'm not going. If I go now, he'll definitely scold me.

Let me calm down for two days. So many things happened recently.

Okay. I should go now.

It's the same regardless how early or late I go. I'll get scolded anyway.

You should be like this earlier.

When we get there, don't come with me. You'll be there laughing at me being scolded.

Don't think I don't know that you want to gloat.

I didn't say I'm giving you a ride there.

If you don't give me a ride, how do I get there?

Call a taxi yourself.

I-I don't have money. I didn't bring money.

Give me a ride there.

Play a song.

Luo Fei, are you copying me?

Copy what?

That’s my playlist.

It has your name on it? Your playlist?

I listened to it 10 years ago.

Even if you listened to it 10 years ago, it's not your playlist.

Can you sing along?

Why do you think I don’t?

Wait, I can sing along.

Can you?

I can't.

Then how can you prove that it's your playlist?

I don't like to sing. I like to listen.

♫ A glamorous start with a strong reunion ♫

♫ Clear heart beats with fiery bravery ♫

♫ Dark clouds and thunder rumbles disguise the dangerious adventure ♫

♫ In the maze, we have no fear of the wind ♫

♫ Both true and deceptive, evil and good ♫

♫ The hearts of glory belongs to the hero ♫

The air on the rooftop is always fresher.

Who is this?

Professor Ling.

It's you.

I didn't expect to see you again in this life.

You really crossed the line this time.

Yes, yes.

Xifeng already worries me a lot from the 615 series case.

You're quite something. You even use life and death to play fool me.

I originally wanted to

nurture two clever students who will not worry me.

Turns out that the worrisome things come up later.

Professor Ling, I was wrong. It's definitely my mistake this time.

Now that I'm back... then next time...

There's still a next time?

No, no. There will never be a next time.

Fortunately, Officer Luo found out just in time.

If he came just a bit later, tell me,

- would you have been— - Yes, yes.

Professor Ling, don't be angry. The industry conference that you are hosting is about to start.

I'm now back. I will definitely do a good one for you.

Do a good one?

I see that it's your mouth that is good.

I learnt from you.

I really want to throw you down from here.

Don't. It's not easy for me to be back.

Let's go down. Don't catch a cold.

- Let's go. - Let's go.

I highly suspect that Bai Yaxing is the boss behind the scenes that we were tracking down previously.

The people who have access to hallucinogens, besides Hu Dayong,

there's only Bai Yaxing.

In the 803 case, he showed up at the Spring Light Orphanag.

Would Yang Xingchun be associated with him?

I don't know about this.

Anyway, he wanted me to swap the files at Spring Light Orphanage.

I already explained clearly.

When we arrived,

what is your plan?

There's a special order from upper management.

We still hope you can cooperate to investigate Bai Yaxing.

Don't act on impulse again.

[Y-Star Group]

To welcome the two of you today,

I rejected a lot of appointments.

In the end,

you guys are here to make up a story?

I didn't kill Hu Dayong. I didn't act according to your plan.

Are you very upset?

Isn't there someone who is always right by you?

Where's he?

The evidence you're referring to...

is this?

Or...

this one?

Back then, it's written clearly in the Lan County case file.

The pharmacist was struck to death at the scene.

You identified him when you were the informant.

But a few days ago, we caught the actual pharmacist.

Hu Dayong.

Officer Luo.

There's no evidence.

And Mr. Lu,

you said you met me here before.

Later on, I ask them to take you to check the surveillance camera.

If there's nothing,

be careful, I'll sue you for defamation.

Since the aptitude test, he already planned out everything.

Obviously, there won't be any loopholes.

We must change our mindset and start from his motives.

That's all we can do.

Have you not been sleeping well?

Why is your face look lifeless?

I dreamed of Fengping.

I wasn't planning to talk about it.

I was afraid you might be upset.

Wait for me for a moment.

I'll go up first, then.

You have the key?

I was the one who paid your rent.

Shopkeeper, give me a lollipop.

Get it yourself.

Fengping?

Looks like I'm not back at a good time.

Where have you been, Fengping?

Where did you go?

Stinky rascal, it's really you!

No, it's not me.

You didn't answer phone calls or replied to texts. We missed you so much.

If you're sleepy, just go to bed.

Right now, we can be certain that everything he's done

has been targeting the hypnotist.

Of course, the aptitude test.

Tu Xiaomao, me... we were the same way.

What's uncertain is, why did he choose a hypnotist?

What is his purpose?

Get some sleep.

You go ahead.

Come in.

Professor Ling.

Excuse me for interrupting you.

It's no interruption. Have a seat and tell me.

Here's the thing. I have a friend who wants to meet you.

Meet me? Which friend?

He is in the media industry. He is a friend I met in the hospital.

Because he is interested in hypnosis,

so he would like to meet you in person.

He called me to ask about it again, so I'd like to hear what you think.

Our industry conference is about to be held.

It's a perfect timing to have more media friends who can publicize for us.

Let's do this. Make an appointment with him to come here to get acquainted.

This is wonderful. Thank you.

Don't be so courteous.

What's the name of your friend?

Professor Ling, this is Presidetn Bai that I mentioned to you previoiusly.

- President Bai. - I'm pleased to meet you, Professor Ling.

I'm pleased to meet you.

I highly value the prospects of the hypnosis industry

in the field of psychotherapy,

especially your Heart Bridge Theory.

That's why I came this time

to propose collaboration with your psychotherapy consultation.

Collaboration?

I originally wanted to

create a hypnosis performance program with hypnosis as the core on an internet platform.

Let hypnosis flourish

and be known by more people.

But, after all, I'm not a professional in the field.

Thanks to Miss Xia's introduction,

I'm lucky to meet Professor Ling today.

I wonder if you are interested in my idea, Professor Ling?

In terms of promoting the industry,

a hypnosis performance program

is indeed an effective way.

However, to really promote this project,

I think we should first consolidate the standard

in the hypnosis industry.

President Bai, lately I've been planning

a psychotherapy industry conference on industry standards.

I wonder if you are willing to wait for the completion of the conference

before we meet again to discuss the hypnosis performance program.

No problem, Professional Ling.

Let's do it this way then.

Later, if there are more questions, we'll meet at some other time.

Great.

President Bai, I'm really thankful.

You're too courteous, Professor Ling.

I'm the one who is thankful of you, Professor Ling.

You're too kind.

- Jiaxin. - Hi, Captain Luo.

Tell us about the hallucinogens.

It's a simple thing.

I taught chemistry.

I am familiar with all the ingredients.

The only trouble is in distillation.

You can do it! You can do it!

You can do it! You can do it!

You can do it! You can do it!

You can do it! You can do it!

You can do it! You can do it!

You stepped on the line. You lose.

I didn't. Older brother, you plat dirty. I'm not playing with you anymore.

Liang Yin, slow down.

You can do it! You can do it!

Liang Yi, hurry up and go.

Do you know, on the days you moved to Longzhou,

why I didn't dare to see you?

It's because I kept thinking,

if I had picked up your call that day,

would everything not have happened?

Did you ever hate me?

I didn't even dare to say "I'm sorry" to you.

After you left,

I finally had the courage to look at you from afar.

That phrase, "I'm sorry,"

never did get to say it in the end.

♫ I can blow away like the wind ♫

♫ Falling into the dark ♫

♫ I can blow away like the wind ♫

♫ Falling into the dark ♫

Police badge number 020239, Liang Yin, reports to Captain Luo!

You've changed quite a lot over the years.

You're the same, a stuffy gourd. (T/N: someone who is tactiturn)

You can do it! You can do it!

♫ I will be there ♫

-Rock -Paper, Scissors

You can do it! You can do it!

♫ I will be there ♫

[Beloved Mother Deng Yan]

[Beloved Mother Deng Yan]

Those years ago, after Auntie Deng saved me,

our family moved to Longzhou.

Later,

a hooligan kept following me.

[Longzhou Middle School]

I originally came to Longzhou to find you

in order to ask you about the case.

Unexpectedly, I saw a few hooligans

who kept following you.

Young sister, let's get acquainted.

My name is Lu Fengping.

Don't go away.

Aren't you Liang Yin? Let's be friends.

You appeared to misunderstand.

But that's not important.

I actually had a lot of questions to ask you.

I wanted to ask you why you were at that abandoned factory.

I wanted to ask if you knew who my mom's killer was.

I wanted to ask you what exactly happened that day.

But, once I met you, I suddenly couldn't bear asking you about anything.

I didn't want you to get hurt again.

I kept thinking you were a hooligan.

Acctually, after that day, I felt that I couldn't continue on the same way.

I started practicing boxing. I thought

I could protect myself even if no one else did.

Why do you keep avoiding me?

You don't like men?

If you don't answer, that means you tacitly admit it.

What a coincidence! I don't like men, either.

Let's go. I'll treat you to a meal.

I thought I endured that period of difficult days all by myself.

I didn't know that you protected me in ways that I wasn't aware of.

That's right.

Those days were truly hard to endure.

But, fortunately,

we endured it together.

Thank you.

[Beloved Mother Deng Yan]

Auntie Deng Yan,

with all of you protecting me,

I'm really lucky.

Mom,

the killer has been caught.

Everything is over. I don't know

if this is the best closure.

But, I've remembered

to be a righteous person.

I'll always remember that.

Thanks.

Liang Yin, you want one?

It's bad for the teeth.

As you wish.

[One Free Candy]

[Zhou Huaigu]

[Yang Bing]

Have you reached an agreement with all three of these people?

Yes, they've arrived in Longzhou according to the agreement.

This morning, they've already checked into the Yufeng Hotel where the conference is held.

They will attend Ling Mingding's industry conference on time.

[Entrusting psychoterapy in Heart Bridge Therapy, does it make it worse?]

There's still lacks a little bit of something.

- Chief Lu? - Luo Fei.

North City's police station just called.

Someone fell death from a building in the Huiyu neighborhood.

Jump from a building?

The deceased is named Zhang Ming, a old man who lives alone raising pigeons.

A witness said the deceased acted abnormally before his death.

He spread his arms like the pigeon and then jump off the building.

This case is related to hypnosis, isn't it?

A month before Zhang Ming died,

he had just completed his psychotherapy treatment at Professor Ling Mingding's psychotherapy consultation clinic.

Okay, I'll be right over.

Do you know him?

Captain Luo, the crime scene is straight ahead.

We haven't noticed any suspicious persons around.

We sealed the place immediately after the incident occurred.

Has he been acting unusual lately?

Since I saw him last time, he...

I think...

How could this happen?

Thanks.

There isn't much serioius injury to the limbs of the corpse,

but there is large communited fracture in the head and the chest.

Besides that, there isn't any suspicious wound on the surface of the body.

Wait for my autopsy report to see the detailed results.

Captain Luo, the witnesses are a few of the seniors downstairs.

They said they heard a whistling sound when they were on the way to exercise in the park.

The deceased jumped down from the building soon after that.

- A whistling sound? - Yes.

[Old He's Small Shop]

Old He, you tell me to eat, but you only drink.

You don't say anything and just keep your silence. Is this fun?

I'm back.

Alive like a dragon that moves the wind and clouds.

You have something on your mind. Tell me about it.

You won't talk? Fine.

Don't drink anymore. Don't eat, either.

It's really nothing.

But I suddenly remembered just now

the message your mom gave me.

Ten years ago, when your mother went to buy food ingredients in Yang County,

she especially asked me to take good care of you.

Who could have guessed that she would never return alive.

That's right.

If you and Auntie Zhou didn't take care of me,

I've no idea what kind of dire straits I would have been in.

Is there a grand finale yet?

Grand finale? What grand finale?

It's not the grand finale of a TV drama. I mean you and Auntie Zhou.

This is so embarrassing. Really.

Now you know how important I am.

You can't do it without me.

For you, I'll have to live a good life.

Come.

I poured too much. Come, come. Drink it up.

- The whole cup. - Drink the whole cup.

Wait a second.

- Lou Fei? - Oh yes?

Hey, what's up?

Come to the special investigation team right now.

Okay, be right there.

Go on with the real work. Hurry and go.

- I-I'll leave then. - It's fine.

Drink by yourself then. I'm leaving.

Take care.

This psychotherapy record was discovered in Zhang Ming's home.

It shows that he had gone to Professor Ling's workshop to receive psychological treatments.

Because Zhang Ming is an empty-nest senior, his children live out of town.

so he couldn't help but develop some loneliness and depressing moods.

Because he was receiving Professor Ling's psychological treatment, he started raising pigeons.

According to his neighbors, after he started raising pigeons,

his mental state had indeed improved a lot.

I've confirmed with Professor Ling. He did go there.

Do you think it's an accident?

If it's an accidental fall from the building,

the deceased should have instinctively protected himself with his limbs.

But he only had comminuted fracture in his head and chest.

And his four limbs didn't suffer severe injuries.

- It means... - During the fall,

Zhang Ming did not display any survival reaction.

So it's suicide?

But I discovered in Zhang Ming's cellphone that, half an hour before the fall,

he even arranged to meet a pigeon-raising friend to the pigeon market.

Someone who had decided to commit suicide

would not have arranged to meet someone before the suicide.

Rather, he would take care of his matters after-death.

So, homicide is the only explanation then.

But there wasn't any sign or trace of physical fights or dragging at the scene.

Only Zhang Ming's shoe prints were found.

Is it possible that the killer wore Zhang Ming's shoes

and threw him down the building, and then he tidied up the scene?

After Zhang Ming fell off the building, witnesses were around the scene.

So someone couldn't have put the shoes back on him.

Could it have been like this?

The killer exploited Zhang Ming's hobby in raising pigeons and implanted hints in him.

And then he used the pigeon whistle as the trigger to put him into a hypnotic state to jump from the building.

Therefore, the witnesses heard the whistle first and then saw Zhang Ming jumped.

There must be a premise, then.

The conditions for the premise exists.

In Zhang Ming's body, we discovered the same hallucinogens as in the 615 series case.

[Toxicology Report]

Is it related to Bai Yaxing?

But he raised pigeons based on Professor Ling's recommendation.

In other words, the killer isn't targeting Zhang Ming,

but rather, Professor Ling.

Professor Ling, I thought about it some more after I went back.

I think you are indeed right in what you said.

We can aim at the regulation and standardization of the hypnotist industry

to carry out a more in-depth collaboration.

I've already drafted the contract.

The details for our long-term collaboration

are all based on what we've talked about. Take a look.

Okay.

Mengyao, get me the seal and the pen.

Okay.

Mr. Bai,

with your participation, you have given us great help.

Let's work diligently together.

to make this industry more regulated

and more flourishing.

[Ling Mingding]

(seal)

Okay.

Mr. Bai.

Do you still have any more doubts?

It's nothing. I just suddenly recalled something from the past.

We actually met in 2010 once.

Is that so?

Professor Ling, you probably don't remember anymore.

2010, that's eight years ago.

Why don't I remember? Where was it?

It was right here.

It was right here?

Then, what did we chat about?

Come in.

Don't go there.

She is still under hypnosis.

Have a seat.

Pro-Professor Ling, h-how is she?

Her condition is worse than I originally thought.

When will she recover?

Don't be anxious.

Just now, through the hypnosis, I discovered a problem.

What's the problem?

The reason that she's turned into this way

is that there's been a huge misfortune occurring in her family.

And the cause of this misfortune

happens to be you. Isn't that right?

Therefore, in order to give her treatments to help her recover.

First, we must first let her break out of her original living environment.

Second...

We must let her disconnect

the the person who is emotionally associated to her. In other words,

you must leave her.

Leave her... for how long?

I'm afraid it's forever.

Pro-Professor Ling, are you joking?

It's impossible for me to break up with Mei Mei.

If it continues like this,

I can't promise that I can cure her.

This is the only requirement.

You are too strongly tied to her emotional ailment.

If you stay by her side, her illness

will repeatedly recur and worsen.

Professor Ling.

Do you know what happened to her later?

Wait.

We will cooperate with Captain Luo.
