[Deep Lurk]

[Episode 30]

As expected,

it wasn't just Ling Han at the scene yesterday.

Mi Lan and Zong Fang were here too.

I'm heading back now.

-Okay. -I'll treat you to drinks sometime.

Don't forget!

I won't.

Alright, I'm off.

Leader Wen.

Mi Lan and Zong Fang have been found.

Young Master.

Young Master.

It's here.

Someone ordered ten days' worth of meals from Defengxuan Restaurant,

requesting two deliveries per day.

But

the delivery guy never saw the person inside.

Every time,

he just knocked twice,

left the food container, and walked away immediately.

This was specifically instructed by the person who placed the order.

The house was bought by Bai Qingkui's bodyguard,

Liu.

It went through several hands before that.

After the purchase, it remained vacant,

with no one living there.

Some time ago, Bai Qingkui moved in,

and rumor has it he died there.

Recently, someone else moved in.

But my men couldn't figure out who they are.

They didn't dare get too close

and never saw their faces.

Sorry, Young Master.

I didn't handle this well for you.

It's fine.

You've already done great

tracking them this far

without being discovered.

When you go back,

tell your men

to keep their mouths shut.

We can't afford any trouble.

Understood.

Young Master,

how about

the two of us stay and help you out?

The people inside

are extremely dangerous.

The two of you won't be of much help.

If they take you hostage,

I'll have to save you as well.

Alright, Rat, Gangzi.

Don't you trust my skills?

Let's go.

-Be careful, then. -We're leaving.

Dao,

you should go too.

Young Master,

are you joking?

How can I leave at a time like this?

Enough.

This time, listen to me.

You're someone who does great things.

Your life is precious.

Besides,

we still need you to take charge of saving Second Young Master.

I'll cover the back door.

You knock on the front.

Take this dagger for self-defense.

Just hold them off until Wen Yeming arrives.

Don't risk your life.

Why are you talking so much?

Who is it?

I'm from Defengxuan Restaurant, delivering your meal.

The money you left outside earlier was too much.

I didn't dare take it.

Something is wrong.

It's Yun Hongqi.

Mi Lan!

This stab

is for my grandma.

Today,

I'll make you pay for your blood debts.

That stab earlier

was something I owed you.

From now on,

I won't give you another chance like that.

You said

you'd treat me well

and give me a home.

But now,

you're trying to kill me.

Your love

is just that much.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Yun Hongqi has been knocked out.

Go save him now.

I'll chase after Zong Fang.

[Nurses' Station]

You're way too impatient.

With just the two of you,

there's no way you could catch Mi Lan and Zong Fang.

At the very least, you should've waited for me to arrive before taking action.

Officer Wen,

it was my mistake.

I was afraid of delays causing complications.

I think you were simply eager for revenge.

Your original plan was probably

to capture Zong Fang alive and kill Mi Lan,

right?

I thought I could control myself.

I thought

I could look at the bigger picture

and wouldn't kill her when I saw her.

But when I saw her,

I thought of my grandma,

and I just couldn't control myself.

I really wanted to kill her with my own hands.

I wanted to...

I just couldn't control myself, do you understand?

With your level of skill,

you're no match for someone with professional training as a special agent.

You can't compete Mi Lan.

So what if I'm not?

You need to stay rational.

That's the only way to save Yun Hongshen.

How's Shen now?

We're all familiar with each other here,

so I hope our conversation can be direct and to the point.

And you know perfectly well

what kind of person I am.

When I was fifteen,

Uncle Yang gave me a watch

as a birthday gift.

I always kept it in

the left drawer of my desk.

So when Jingyu mentioned it,

I immediately knew Uncle Yang was looking for me.

That birthday happened to be celebrated at Xiaoxiang Restaurant,

so that's where we met.

What did he want?

He wanted me to leave Changsha to lay low for a while.

Why?

You already know, don't you?

Someone accused my father and me of being communists.

How do you explain this?

This must be something Ling Han prepared for me.

He wants to use this to cement his accusations that I'm a communist.

Did Jingyu

die at the location mentioned in this newspaper clipping?

What are you trying to say?

Ling Han,

it's you again.

Just wait.

I'll kill you for sure!

I don't want to hear this right now.

I just want to know

what organization your father truly serves?

I think

you should ask Ling Han instead

which organization he's truly loyal to.

Sir.

Uncle Yang,

Jingyu was killed by Ling Han.

Come.

For all those young lives

like Jingyu's.

For their courage

and kindness.

Stop making futile efforts.

My plan has already been set in motion.

It's my mistake.

I should bear the consequences.

The issue with the gold reserves

involves too many people.

You don't understand the situation,

so you can't take on this responsibility.

Let's think of another way.

There's no time left.

Our cause needs someone to continue it.

Don't worry.

Our cause

will definitely be carried forward by others.

Chief Ke,

if I didn't mishear just now,

are you telling me

that they're denying it now?

In other words,

your investigation

has made no progress at all?

At present, we don't have strong evidence.

And given their special identities,

there are too many eyes on them.

It's not suitable to take extreme measures.

Then you might as well let them go,

apologize to them,

admit we made a mistake,

and say sorry.

Right now, it's undoubtedly putting the Director under immense pressure.

Ke Jingping, I'm telling you,

you must come up with something...

Some kind of excuse to get through this.

Understood.

Hello?

Why is it always someone looking for you?

Hello?

Chief.

There may be more to Yang Ziming's true identity than meets the eye.

Director Gong.

Minister Yang,

our Chief requests your presence.

I've checked your family's call records.

The morning before Zhang Xiancheng arrived in Changsha,

you received a phone call from Shanghai.

I'd like to know who called you

and what the conversation was about.

When I left Shanghai, it was in a hurry.

So,

I didn't have time to deal with my property in Shanghai.

I entrusted a real estate agent

to sell my house.

That call was from the agent,

and it was about the property.

A phone call

about a property at as early as 5 a.m.?

What kind of inconsiderate agent

would pass muster with someone

as discerning as you, Minister Yang?

The transfer order came unexpectedly.

In a rush,

I didn't have enough time

to carefully select a proper agent.

And wouldn't you know it,

on the very morning you took that call,

No. 76 captured a Communist liaison officer

who had infiltrated Shanghai from Northern Jiangsu

on a secret mission.

There was an exchange of gunfire,

and the liaison officer was killed on the spot.

However,

the contact tasked with meeting him survived

and defected.

According to this defector,

their mission to Shanghai

was to receive a shipment of gold.

The Communists are that capable?

Under the noses of the Japanese,

with both the NBIS and the CBIS watching,

they still managed to secure gold?

Yes.

At such a difficult time,

they were able to perform a sleight of hand

and fool the Japanese.

The person who pulled this off must be quite a genius.

Someone, perhaps,

like your friend Yun Muzhi.

Chief Ke,

you're confusing me with your words.

Who performed a sleight of hand?

And how is Muzhi

involved in this?

As far as I know,

the Bank of France handed over a shipment

of gold to the Japanese.

But when it reached Japan,

it had all turned into lead ingots.

Is that so?

Well, that's certainly satisfying to hear!

Why should we

let the Japanese take our gold?

You're right.

But on the other hand,

Minister Yang,

you approve of the sleight-of-hand with that gold, don't you?

Chief Ke,

that's not fair of you.

You're twisting the facts.

No matter how I answer, I'll be in the wrong,

won't I?

I'd like to ask,

if this question were directed at you, Chief Ke,

how would you answer it?

We have people within the CBIS as well.

Yang Ziming is very likely a CBIS operative.

Make it clear.

I have a subordinate,

an informant within the CBIS.

He's very clever.

I asked him to discreetly investigate,

and he told me

that Yang Ziming is most likely working for the CBIS.

What does that have to do with me?

Among the documents burned at Zhiya House,

one was restored by us.

It has already been deciphered.

Where are the people at Zhiya House?

It's too late for you

to ask me about them now.

That's fine. It doesn't matter.

After all, they're just minor players.

What I want to know is where the gold is.

I won't tell you.

Don't you realize

that's your only chance to save yourself?

Chief Ke,

I won't waste words.

You know better than I do

what happens when you betray your boss.

Since death is inevitable,

I might as well die with loyalty to my name.

At least that way,

I can protect my family.

Who is your boss?

Chen Lifu?

Xu Enzeng?

Uncle Yang,

what did our Chief talk to you about?

Nothing much,

just asking about the situation.

By the way,

has it been a long time

since you've heard me play the harmonica?

Today, I'll play for you.

Uncle Yang,

please don't. I don't want to hear it.

But I want to play.

-Uncle Yang... -Please, just this once, indulge me.

This tune is suspicious.

You're transmitting information.

Don't move!

He's transmitting intelligence.

Quick, go after them!

Stop right there!

If any of you move,

I'll shoot him.

Don't shoot!

He won't kill me.

If you don't believe me,

you can try.

Uncle Yang.

The final step in Yang Ziming's entire plan

was to leave no witnesses.

The clues he threw out

are enough to make Ke Jingping suspicious.

But they can't be investigated further.

Neither Ke Jingping nor Dai Li

would ever confront Chen Lifu directly.

By dying under the guise of being with the CBIS,

Yun Hongshen and that shipment of gold are safe.

Shen,

what cannot be seen with the naked eye

can only be seen with insight.

Uncle Yang.

Uncle Yang.

And this insight...

Uncle Yang.

Uncle Yang.

Uncle Yang.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Uncle Yang.

Capture him alive!

According to Ms. Tong from the nursing school,

Mi Lan had a secret relationship

while in university.

A secret relationship?

Who was it with?

A male student from the Normal University.

He was secretly executed

for organizing and carrying out

an anti-government protest.

At the time, Mi Lan wanted to collect his body

despite all consequences.

Ms. Tong discovered this

and forcibly stopped her.

That's also how her relationship was exposed.

But because this was a sensitive matter,

the teacher, out of care for her,

kept it a secret.

That explains it.

Her defection to the Japanese

was fueled by hatred toward us

and she wanted revenge.

Have you found the connection

between Mi Lan and Ling Han?

I took

this yesterday

at the factory where Yun Hongshen was captured.

Two pairs of footprints, one large and one small,

likely a man and a woman.

The shoe sizes match those of Zong Fang and Mi Lan.

I suspect

Mi Lan and Zong Fang were present at the scene.

If my assumption is correct,

then Ling Han is highly problematic.

Suspicion alone isn't enough to convict someone.

I also investigated Wei Xiaojun.

When Ling Han received the call,

Wei Xiaojun was accompanying his girlfriend to see a traditional Chinese doctor.

The person who followed Yun Hongshen and took the photos

couldn't possibly have been him.

Yet Ling Han claimed the photos were taken by Wei Xiaojun.

This only proves that Ling Han lied.

If you want to substantiate your hypothesis,

you need strong evidence.

Since there are doubts about him,

an investigation should be conducted.

Why hesitate?

I made it very clear just now.

Strong evidence is required.

But didn't the Director convict Yun Hongshen

based purely on suspicion?

Wen Yeming,

the Chief has already stated

that strong, conclusive evidence

is required for this case.

Ling Han is highly valued by the Director.

We must show due respect to the Director.

Some actions must be justified with clear reasons.

I don't yet have solid enough evidence.

But this afternoon,

I almost captured Mi Lan and Zong Fang.

If I had captured them,

many things would have become clearer.

Why didn't you report to the station

when you went to capture Mi Lan and Zong Fang?

The person who found them was Yun Hongqi.

He firmly believes Ling Han is suspicious

and doesn't trust our internal security, so...

So you took matters into your own hands,

disregarding the task I gave you,

and became Yun Hongqi's errand runner, right?

Hello?

Bring them back.

Yang Ziming is dead.

Stop holding out.

Admit everything.

What's the meaning

of this codebook?

I really don't know what it means.

Minister Yang has his own special code.

All the telegrams were decoded by him personally.

I was only responsible for sending them.

Where's the radio?

Did you hide it,

or did you let the people from Zhiya House take it?

There was indeed a radio

at the Zhiya House contact point.

When they evacuated, they took it with them.

Moreover,

that radio wasn't used for

Minister Yang's communications with higher-ups.

Even if someone

used the radio in Minister Yang's name,

there would be no reply from above.

Yang Ziming had a special communication channel?

Yes.

Tell me.

The Provincial Telecommunications Division.

The Provincial Telecommunications Division?

Yes.

Where did all the telegrams you handled go?

Chongqing.

The wartime capital.

The Economic and Trade Communications Agency.

They had people stationed near Yang Ziming's house.

When you were there,

they didn't dare to make any moves,

fearing you would see through their plot.

But once you left,

they signaled him.

I'm sorry. It was my negligence.

Forget it.

Their plan was well-designed.

You're not a deity.

Yang Ziming is dead.

This situation is even more troublesome.

We can't even bring up

his potential Communist ties.

If Chen Lifu finds out,

he'll accuse us of slander

and say we killed him.

And it involves the gold.

If this leaks,

it will be a huge scandal.

He really thought he had everything figured out.

No one knows for sure if he was from the CBIS.

What cannot be seen with the naked eye,

can only be seen with insight.

Uncle Yang.

And this insight...

Two telegrams have already been decoded.

Although the content is incomplete,

it's enough

to infer the full content from them.

The ones sent from Zhiya House should be,

"The secret has been leaked.

Personnel have already been sent to Shanghai.

We hope for full cooperation."

The document that Secretary Wu took is relatively complete.

The last word of the telegram should be "save."

If that's the case,

then Yang Ziming really was from the CBIS.

Chief,

Yang Ziming, that old fox, has played us all.

He clearly knew

that we suspected he and Yun Hongshen were Communists,

but he allowed this misunderstanding to continue,

misleading us to keep heading in the wrong direction.

He was delaying time.

The longer he delays,

the safer his package becomes.

So,

if that's the case,

the possibility of Yun Hongshen being a Communist suspect

is becoming smaller and smaller.

Not to mention Yang Ziming playing the harmonica to send messages,

but this whole situation

has many fundamental inconsistencies.

What do you mean?

Here,

this is the recording of Ling Han's interrogation.

You should listen to it.

The last words Zhang Xiancheng said before he died,

you all might have heard them,

or at least heard

one of the key words.

But because you weren't paying attention,

or were distracted by other information,

you mistakenly thought you didn't hear it.

Think carefully again,

even one word or one phrase could be important.

Director Ling,

I was a bit far away at that time,

and Zhang Xiancheng's voice

was really too low.

I...

I didn't hear it.

I didn't hear it either.

The voice was indeed quite faint.

So after Yun Hongshen heard Zhang Xiancheng's words,

what was his expression like?

A bit bewildered, right?

Yes.

I saw him freeze for a moment.

Chief, you also heard it, right?

Ling Han has been coaxing a confession,

but these two agents don't seem to understand

what he means.

Their feedback is all truthful.

Clearly, Yun Hongshen

didn't know what Zhang Xiancheng was saying.

If he had,

then the events would have unfolded like this,

Yun Hongshen would have actively reported to Yang Ziming,

rather than the other way around,

with Yang Ziming trying to reach him indirectly.

There's something I still don't understand.

Why did Zhang Xiancheng tell Yun Hongshen

such an important thing before he died?

Doesn't that prove Yun Hongshen also has issues?

This only proves

that Yun Hongshen has ties to the CBIS,

and nothing to do with the Communist Party.

I suspect

that Zhang Xiancheng knew he wouldn't survive,

but he had to pass on

the mission details for coming to Changsha.

So he chose Yun Hongshen, the person closest to Yang Ziming,

to act as a messenger.

Anyway, no matter what he said, Yun Hongshen wouldn't have understood,

but he could be certain

that once Yang Ziming knew the situation,

he would ask Yun Hongshen about it,

thus achieving his goal.

Chief,

based on all the current information,

it's highly likely that Yun Hongshen

was simply caught up in this by chance.

He has nothing to do with Zhang Xiancheng's mission in Changsha

or Yang Ziming.

And the notion of him being a Communist is completely unfounded.

The newspaper clipping found at the Yun family's house

was likely planted to frame him.

The death of Jingyu really makes this clear.

Young Master, please eat.

Young Master, don't worry.

We'll keep looking for the people for you.

But I'm worried

that after we startled them this time,

they won't

hide in Bai Qingkui's place anymore.

So,

we'll need to put in more effort.

As long as they haven't disappeared into thin air,

we'll definitely find them.

After all, this is still our Changsha territory.

Young Master.

Where do you think they might hide this time?

I have no clue at all.

Let's look further away.

Now they are surrounded on all sides.

Not only are we looking for them,

but the NBIS people are also looking for them.

They can't hide in the city.

The more remote

and unnoticed the place is,

the more suitable it is for them.

Let's try our luck.

-Alright. -Alright.

Let's eat.

He's an incredible agent.

As an opponent, I really respect him.

I believe the package he swore to protect

was also for the anti-Japanese war effort.

He's a hero to this country.

He shouldn't have been treated this way.

But the only thing I can do for him is this.

Thank you.

He'll like

this place.

He likes scenic spots.

You're still too young.

Some things you're still too emotionally attached to.

You care that he's your relative,

and you can't bring yourself to report him,

so you've ended up in this situation.

But he's not like that to you.

No.

He wouldn't shoot me.

A person like him

is both terrifying

and admirable.

Tell me,

how did you get Ling Han to meet you?

He has an operative,

code name “Onitetsu.”

I found Ling Han through her.

Is this Onitetsu Mi Lan?

Yeming really went to great lengths for you.

She found out Mi Lan's real reason

for siding with the Japanese,

but she didn't uncover

the evidence of the connection between Mi Lan and Ling Han.

So my suspicion of you and Ling Han

is the same.

How can you prove what you're saying is true?

I will definitely prove it to you.

I will never let Ling Han go.

If you don't have evidence,

then it's just speculation.

Ling Han has also made significant contributions

to our KMT.

When you deal with a person like him,

if you don't have concrete evidence,

you'll only bring trouble upon yourself.

In our line of work,

we can't always rely on evidence.

Many times,

we have to rely on deduction.

That's why I said you are too young.

Yun Hongshen, I understand your abilities,

and I know your thoughts.

But this is no longer just your business.

It concerns the honor of the KMT's elites,

and it also concerns the safety

of our entire Hunan Station.

So now you must tell me everything

you know.

Then why do you suspect him?

You keep talking about evidence.

After all these years of handling cases,

have you always relied on evidence?

I really admire you,

but I want to tell you

that people like us,

when we're in the middle of the situation,

sometimes we don't see things as clearly.

Why have I been openly and covertly

protecting you?

It's to make you believe in me.

When I captured the Viscount,

I unexpectedly uncovered a family letter.

A Japanese spy with the code name Kunwu

had entrusted him to send it back to Japan.

Kunwu is in Changsha.

I suspect Ling Han is Kunwu.

He's been lurking in China

for at least ten years,

maybe even longer than Zhang Hua or Zong Fang.

Is there anything else besides this family letter?

No.

Can this family letter

prove that Ling Han is Kunwu?

No.

Recently, I have been investigating

Ling Han extensively.

I've found many suspicious points about him.

Ling Han is someone who acts very meticulously.

I just don't have evidence for now to prove

that Ling Han is Kunwu.

But I firmly believe Ling Han must be Kunwu.

Chief,

I suggest we arrest Ling Han immediately.

No.

Why not?

Ling Han was personally recommended by Director Dai,

and he holds him in high regard.

Just because of that,

we're going to let a Japanese spy

who has infiltrated so deeply

continue to stab at the heart of our organization?

The longer he remains undercover,

the more secrets he knows.

This will lead to increasingly severe consequences.

This matter is not as simple as you think.

If Ling Han is indeed Kunwu,

then Director Dai will inevitably be implicated.

At that point, the entire NBIS will be in turmoil.

Then what do you intend to do?

Are you saying

that to protect Director Dai,

we should allow Ling Han to maintain

his elite image for the KMT?

Don't talk nonsense with me.

You are fully aware of the stakes involved here.

You can investigate,

but don't make too much noise.

I will find a solution that addresses both sides

in the shortest possible time.

If Ling Han is indeed Kunwu,

I will not let him go.
