[Deep Lurk]

[Episode 37]

Hongqi.

You're back.

The outing Secretary Wu accompanied us on this afternoon

really wore him out.

He's been sleeping since we got back.

If you don't have anything urgent,

don't bother him.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Is there something on my face?

Hongqi.

Mi Lan is dead.

[Yun Residence]

Good.

Great!

Wonderful!

It's a pity she didn't die by my hand.

If Grandma knows,

she'll be able to rest in peace.

Hongqi,

when Mi Lan died,

she was wearing this the whole time.

Throw it away.

Grandma,

the person who caused your death is dead.

I know,

I still haven't fully repaid

the debt I owe you.

Don't worry.

From now on,

I'll live every day well.

I'll protect the Yun family

and take good care of Shen

to repay the debt I owe you.

I, Yun Hongqi, hereby swear:

From now on,

I will uphold the Yun family traditions,

be humble and diligent,

take care of my grandmother

and my younger brother,

and be a role model for the Yun family.

I'll never speak anything that would disgrace the Yun family,

never do anything that would dishonor the Yun family,

and shoulder the responsibility as the eldest grandson of the Yun family.

I'll never let personal feelings

disturb my judgment

and never make my grandmother angry.

I'll take care of my younger brother

and protect the Yun family with my life.

The blueprint Ling Han gave us

has really come in handy.

Whether we succeed or fail

is all up to you now.

It's only now that I realize

why he insisted that I give him a deadline

when Ling Han died.

When can you give me the cipher key?

Well...

I'm not sure.

Not sure?

Logically,

with Ling Han dead,

my chances of capturing Zong Fang should be higher,

and I should have felt more relieved,

even eager to capture him.

But instead, I was stalling.

Because

he had already confirmed that I suspected him.

That's why he launched

that crazy serial bombing case,

forcing you to find Zong Fang immediately.

Even if he was forcing me,

he needed a reason.

He knew that once I confirmed he was Kunwu,

I would take action immediately,

and it might mess up his plan.

He certainly wouldn't let me confirm it.

So,

he asked me to investigate the serial bombing case.

And after Zong Fang died,

he didn't force me to find the cipher key.

This actually made me hesitate.

If I hadn't found the hidden chamber,

I really wouldn't have been able to make up my mind.

I suddenly thought of a question.

Since Ke Jingping has already discovered

that you are suspecting him,

why doesn't he stop your investigation?

Because he's doing it on purpose.

Today, he kept me behind

and asked if I wanted to go to the hospital with him,

but I refused.

At that moment, he should have guessed

that I was plotting against him.

Not only did he not stop me,

he didn't even bother to clean up the place,

and just let me go in.

He laid everything out in front of you,

told you his plan,

and confirmed the suspicions in your mind.

What is his purpose?

He is trying to frustrate me.

He is trying to tell me

that even though I know his secret,

I can't do anything to him.

The factor you mentioned may be part of it,

but it is definitely not the whole purpose.

Although he has been having the upper hand,

he should

regard you

as a serious opponent.

He wouldn't underestimate you like that.

His purpose...

This purpose

will greatly assist

his next plan.

His next plan is...

to use you to find the cipher key.

But there is no clue in that hidden chamber

that can help me

find the cipher key.

Even if there were, I wouldn't be able to explain it in the future.

Anyone with common sense would guess

that there's something wrong

in the hidden chamber.

His purpose is certainly not this.

Anyway,

whatever it is,

it must be something that can lead to his ultimate goal

and complete his strategic deception.

Now, let's work backwards.

If, in that hidden chamber,

I had seen with my own eyes

the death list he made

and his drawings,

I could confirm that he is Kunwu,

and it would validate

my speculation about his strategic deception.

And then?

Then, you expose the truth to the public.

No.

If I expose the truth to the public,

it wouldn't be the truth anymore.

Once I leave,

he could destroy all the evidence

in the hidden chamber.

Then the photos I took

would be useless.

[The Hunting Operation will conclude tomorrow. Stay tuned]

Good.

Great.

Give my order.

Division 106 will depart immediately,

secretly cross the Hunan-Jiangxi border,

and launch a surprise attack on Changsha from the east.

Yes.

Hongshen,

go back and get some sleep.

Maybe when you wake up, you'll figure everything out.

I almost forgot again.

Here.

Comrade Yang asked me

to give this to you on the day

you officially join the Party.

I hid it before.

When I came back from Mi Lan's house today,

I brought it back.

Comrade Yang said that,

in his heart,

you were already the best lone hero.

He believed that Comrade Muzhi felt the same way.

They were both proud of you.

Yang also said that

he hoped you would finish

his and Comrade Muzhi's journey.

Yun Hongshen knows very well

that Ke Jingping is confident,

but not arrogant.

He can let the kite in his hands

fly a little further,

but he would never let it fly out of his sight.

So, at the latest, by tomorrow night,

Ke Jingping will start reeling in the string.

Yun Hongshen has already prepared to sacrifice himself.

He decided to do whatever it takes

to sabotage Ke Jingping's plan.

Dad,

how I wish

this had been handed to me by you.

[Military Hospital]

-Sir. -Sir.

Leader Yun, you're here.

Go back

and get some rest.

I'm actually not tired.

Go inside now.

Our leader is waiting for you.

Wen,

you look in good spirits.

Have you missed me?

I...

brought you something to eat.

It's still warm.

Here.

I'm not very good at cooking.

Don't mind it.

I can do it myself.

I'm not a kid.

It's not appropriate for you to feed me.

Come on.

You need to give me a chance to prove myself.

Come on. Be good.

Otherwise, it'll get cold.

Not bad.

Have another bite.

I also bought some other food.

Do you want to try some?

No.

By the way,

I

brought you something good.

This is something

my mom and grandma

got for me from the temple

when I was little.

It was because I was always getting sick

and not in good health.

Ever since I got this amulet,

I haven't been sick at all.

I'm giving this to you now

to bless you with safety throughout your life.

You should keep it for yourself.

I've already given it to you.

Take it.

It's from your boyfriend.

Bye.

He's already gone, and you're still looking?

Madam,

just wait a few more hours.

When Leader Yun gets off work,

he'll be able to come and see you.

Dongping,

do you know how to knit sweaters?

Yes.

Do you want to learn? I can teach you.

You really are different now.

Leader Yun is really something.

He melted you, an iceberg.

Who's an iceberg?

The cigarettes he smokes,

the matches

and pencils he uses,

can be bought anywhere on the streets.

There's no way to trace them.

And the papers and map he left behind

don't have any distinctive markings.

Anyway, I can't find any clues

related to the cipher key from these things.

What do you think, Yun Hongshen?

I think the cigarettes he smokes

could be one of

the clues we need to find the cipher key.

Zong Fang is on the run,

and he's carrying such an important mission.

So aside from some essentials,

he wouldn't have taken the risk

of exposing himself just to buy something

like cigarettes.

Wait a minute.

Let me jump in here.

He was exposed the day before yesterday,

but his accomplice wasn't.

Xu Zhaodi is very likely the one who bought him this pack of cigarettes.

Of course, Xu Zhaodi could help him buy them.

But considering Zong Fang's previous

social status and lifestyle,

she wouldn't have bought him cigarettes like this.

Because these cigarettes are very cheap

and are mostly consumed by the lowest-tier citizens.

So, he must have gotten them himself.

But didn't you say

he wouldn't buy them himself?

He certainly wouldn't buy them proactively.

But if he were in

a relatively safe situation,

he wouldn't refuse to take the pack of cigarettes.

I think I understand your point.

What you're saying is that

our people are looking for Zong Fang everywhere.

There's no place

that's relatively safe for him.

The kind of situation you mentioned is one where,

based on his needs for survival

or the task at hand,

he had to do something.

And while doing it, under the condition

that he wouldn't increase any risk,

he got that pack of cigarettes.

For example,

when he was stealing medicine in a pharmacy,

he might have seen a pack of cigarettes on the counter

and just taken it.

Yes.

He must have gotten it

during the process of completing the task.

You mean

he got this pack of cigarettes

while hiding the cipher key?

The place where he hid the cipher key

is a cigarette factory

or a cigarette shop?

No.

I'm sure it's not.

Before Zong Fang died, he said,

"You won't find it."

When he said this,

it reminded me of Zhang Hua.

Who is your contact?

You've met him before, haven't you?

What Zhang Hua said

contained real information,

which is that I really have seen his contact—

Zong Fang.

Before Zong Fang died, he said,

"You won't find it."

When he said the word "you,"

it seemed like he emphasized it particularly.

That "you" represented a certain emotion at the time.

He must have hated me a lot,

and since I asked about the cipher key,

he felt that the fact that I wouldn't find it

was a way of getting back at me.

So, "I won't find it"

is the key information in this sentence.

Yun Hongshen,

are you saying

that the place where he hid the cipher key

is a blind spot in your thinking?

No matter how hard you think,

you can't figure out where it could be,

so you can't find it, right?

Yes.

Currently, these are the two most crucial clues.

One is me,

and the other is that pack of cigarettes.

As long as we connect the two,

we might be able to find the cipher key.

[Investigation statistics Bureau]

A place I can't think of?

Where wouldn't I think to look?

Wen Yeming's house?

The Girls' School?

Mi Lan's house?

None of these seem right.

Where could it be?

Leader Yun.

Why are you back at work?

Didn't I tell you to go home and get some sleep?

I have something on my mind.

I can't sleep if I go back.

What is it?

It's about the rickshaw company.

I went to the rickshaw company.

The day Ling Han died,

didn't we intercept Mi Lan and Zong Fang

at the train station?

Later, Xu Zhaodi

saved them.

We found the rickshaw

they discarded in an alley

two streets away from the train station.

But there were no witnesses.

Leader Wen then asked me to check with the rickshaw company

to see if any rickshaw driver

had picked up passengers in that alley during that time.

The rickshaw company found the rickshaw driver?

Yes.

A rickshaw driver said that during that time,

near Mishi Street,

he gave a ride to a strange old man.

How was he strange?

He kept his face covered with a scarf

and didn't look up at him.

So, the rickshaw driver had quite an impression of him.

And then?

Where did he get off?

Xiangjun Road.

Xiangjun Road?

It's not close to Mi Lan's house.

So, that means

he hid the codebook first,

then went back to Mi Lan's house.

What place near Xiangjun Road

could he have gotten cigarettes from

and I can't think of?

Getting cigarettes happened

while he was hiding the cipher key.

He didn't buy them or steal them.

Did he rob someone?

No.

He had no reason to rob.

Unless he robbed a dead person.

Captain Tang,

go and check immediately

whether anyone died near Xiangjun Road

after 7:30 PM the day before yesterday.

Or if the dead person

lived near Xiangjun Road.

The dead person was a lower-class citizen.

Okay, thank you.

Leader Yun,

we are a family now.

Could you take me with you?

I alone would be fine.

But what if there's an ambush?

I can keep watch for you if I go.

Don't worry.

There won't be an ambush.

Go back.

I'll take you with me next time we have an operation.

Okay.

By the way,

after dinner, I dozed off for a bit.

But I couldn't sleep well.

I kept waking up,

having this strange feeling like someone was walking outside.

So the footsteps Secretary Wu mentioned were his.

He was right about me not being able to find it.

That's a place I really wouldn't think to look.

Hello?

Captain Tang,

go ahead.

Okay.

Hongqi,

will you be home later?

I forgot my keys

and need to go back home.

Stay at Hei's with peace of mind for now.

Come back after it's safe.

If anything unexpected happens,

you must tell me immediately.

Drive slowly.

Be careful.

Don't worry.

When Yun Hongshen goes to get the cipher key later,

go with him.

Later?

He can figure it out that quickly?

No way.

This isn't like

the serial bombing case.

Yun Hongshen was able to guess

the serial bombing case designed by Ling Han

because the fact that Ling Han went to the archive

was suspicious in itself.

If I had enough time,

I could have figured it out too.

But the cipher key is not like that.

First of all, there are no useful clues

to find the cipher key at all.

I don't think that pack of cigarettes counts.

Because no one knows where he went

from the day before yesterday to last night,

when we killed Ling Han.

There are too many possibilities for how he got that pack of cigarettes.

Also,

the situation Yun Hongshen mentioned was just a speculation.

It's possible that the pack of cigarettes was already with Zong Fang.

And most importantly,

the blind spot in thinking he mentioned.

Since it's a blind spot,

it means it's a place he wouldn't easily think of.

Could he suddenly step out

of his blind spot in thinking?

So it's not too harsh to say you're stupid.

This is where Yun Hongshen

is better than all of you.

Since he knows Zong Fang

used his blind spot in thinking,

he'll surely focus on this aspect.

Do you understand?

Come in.

Chief,

I know where the cipher key is hidden.

Where is it?

My house.

Your house?

That's a good place.

Not to mention you,

no one can guess it.

Shut up!

Are you sure?

I'm pretty sure.

Chen Dongping checked with the rickshaw company.

The night before last,

a rickshaw driver

picked up a passenger near the spot where Xu Zhaodi discarded the rickshaw,

which was near Mishi Street.

The passenger was Zong Fang.

He got off at Xiangjun Road.

It is very close to his house,

only a five-minute walk.

I already called Captain Tang to confirm.

The night before last,

a family on Xiangjun Road

had a son who died.

Normally, he works late until about 10 PM at most,

but that night,

he didn't go home.

The next morning,

a cleaner found his body

on Qiushui Road.

All his belongings,

including his coat, were missing.

In other words, when Zong Fang went to your house,

that person saw him,

so he killed him to silence him and took the pack of cigarettes.

That's right.

Yesterday, when I was searching Mi Lan's house,

I found a Chinese-style long shirt

in her wardrobe.

There's a wonton stall on the street

behind my house.

The owner usually opens the stall every day,

except when it's windy or raining.

I suspect

the victim must have spilled this wonton on Zong Fang

by accident

on his way home after working overtime.

That's when they saw each other.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

He really did find a good hiding place for the cipher key.

Stop talking so much.

You two hurry up and go get the cipher key back.

I'll call the Commander right now

and ask him to send someone to get the intelligence.

Chief,

how about...

you make the call

after we get the cipher key back?

What if I guessed wrong?

It's rare to see you so lacking in confidence.

You should go soon.

The sooner this matter ends,

the sooner everyone can get a good sleep.

Yes.

Go now.

Let's go.

The Chief was right.

I've been sleepless over this for more than half a month.

If this keeps up, I'll die young.

Commander,

this is Ke Jingping.

You can send someone to get the intelligence now.

Young Master,

you didn't go out today?

Because Director Gong honored my humble abode with his presence.

How could I dare to go out?

Young Master, you're flattering me.

Your official task comes first.

Please.

Where do you think Zong Fang

would hide the cipher key?

Isn't my own room

the last place I would think of?

Searching your own room by yourself

does feel a bit odd, right?

No need to look in places where bugs could be planted easily.

People in our line of work

always do regular checks of their homes.

So, Zong Fang couldn't have hidden

the cipher key in a place like that.

That narrows it down quite a bit.

Let's begin.

This is a scrap of paper?

What did you find?

Madmen.

They're all mad!

Everyone on Ling Han's team is really bold.

They dared to leave it out in the open like this.

If one day you couldn't sleep

and picked up a book, it would be exposed.

Clearly,

I don't like reading.

I've read these books

when I was in my teens.

I suspect Mi Lan has secretly been here already.

Flowers in the Mirror?

Adjutant Chen.

Chief Ke.

The Commander sent me to get the intelligence.

The cipher key has been found.

It's on its way here.

What exactly is this cipher key?

Let's talk inside.

Please.

This is Myna's codebook.

All the intelligence is written in it.

Two catties of cucumber.

Eight taels of tomatoes.

What is all this nonsense?

These are encrypted.

But Yun Hongshen has cracked the code.

This is the cipher for the intelligence?

With it, you can decode the intelligence.

How?

That requires the cipher key.

The book you mentioned earlier?

That's right.

Look.

We need this.

In each group of six digits in the book,

the first two digits are the page number,

the middle two digits are the line number,

and the last two digits are the word number.

For example, 280513 in the center

means the 28th page,

the 5th line,

and the 13th word.

I see.

This method is both secure and simple.

If you don't know which book the cipher key is,

it's impossible to crack the code.

However,

if you have the cipher key,

anyone can decrypt it.

That's right.

When the cipher key arrives later,

you can decrypt it yourself.

Me?

Isn't it inappropriate?

No one is more appropriate to do it than you.

Chief Ke, you are indeed a cautious person.

Is this really necessary?

Of course it is.

There are still hidden dangers

within our station.

Chief.

We found the cipher key.

Give it to Adjutant Chen.

Good work, everyone.

On behalf of the soldiers at the front

and the people of Changsha,

I thank you all

for the sacrifices and efforts you've made for this intelligence.

Thank you.

Goodbye.

Wait.

Adjutant Chen.

This intelligence is fake.

What did you say?

Fake?

Weren't Myna's cipher key and codebook

brought back by you?

How could they be fake?

Yun Hongshen,

this is no joke.

We've all been fooled by him.

Ling Han is not Kunwu.

He is.

Yun Hongshen, are you out of your mind?

Do you know what you're talking about?

He was turned ten years ago.

The outstanding graduates from that year at Huangpu Military Academy

went to Japan for a short-term training program.

He was led astray by a Japanese female spy,

who is now his wife,

and became a lackey of the Japanese.

Are you done?

Okay.

Then let me ask you.

If I were the Japanese spy

like you said,

why didn't I

let Mi Lan take the codebook yesterday?

If she had taken the codebook yesterday,

it would already be in Japanese hands by now.

Why would I go through all this trouble?

Because your ultimate goal

is for Adjutant Chen to take this fake intelligence.

You personally orchestrated a strategic deception plan.

You released this fake intelligence,

creating an illusion that it is crucial.

After everyone believed it,

you let it fall into the hands of the NBIS.

On the one hand, you, as the station chief, will take the credit,

and on the other hand,

once this fake intelligence

is in the Commander's hands,

he will base his battle plans on it.

That way, our National Revolutionary Army

will fall right into the Japanese trap.

By then,

could Changsha even be defended?

Good story.

You've said so much. Do you have any evidence?

You treat every one of us as a pawn.

Qu Wenzhi, Myna, Zhang Hua,

Zong Fang, Ling Han,

and even me and Wen Yeming.

You are pulling the strings behind the scenes,

leading me into this mess,

just to use me

to get the fake intelligence from Myna

and hand it to the Commander,

right?

Where did you find these things?

The evidence is in your hidden chamber.

Dare you take us there to have a look?

Chief,

you have a hidden chamber?

Chief Ke,

then please take us to see it.

No problem.

Yun Hongshen, I'm telling you.

It's best to leave yourself an out when doing things,

or the consequences will be ugly.

I originally wanted to resolve this with you privately,

but you insisted on making it bigger

in front of Adjutant Chen.

I don't understand.

Between the photos Yun Hongshen just showed us

in the meeting room

and these,

which ones are real?

And the strategic deception—

who's deceiving whom?

What do you understand?

The photos are very clear.

The one who's doing the strategic deception is Yun Hongshen,

not me.

Adjutant Chen,

this isn't the place for talking.

Let's talk somewhere else.

Shen has been acting weird since early this morning.

Just now, he came back with someone,

all mysterious.

Something must have happened to him.

Young Master.

They are Second Young Master's colleagues.

Can't you take care of everything at once?

One group has just left, and now another one's here.

Do you think Yun's Residence is a market?

Our Chief is asking you to go to the station.

Wait.

What do you mean by "go to the station?"

What do you want to do?

Just tell us.

It's a secret.

It's a secret?

Then there's nothing to talk about.

Get out of Yun's Residence.

Dao.

I should go.

After all, Chief Ke is Shen's boss.

I have to give him some respect.

Young Master.

Secretary Wu.

Didn't the Chief tell you what happened?

No.

He just told you to go to the station now.

Hurry up.

Something must have happened to Yun Hongshen.

Write down everything you saw.

[Bureau of Investigation and Statistics]

Chief,

your guest has arrived.

You may leave.

Yun Hongshen,

you're the type who only learns when it's too late, aren't you?

Guards!

Let my guest in.

Chief Cheng?

Hello.

Hello, Chief Cheng.

Hello, Chief Ke.

Have a seat.

Okay.

I believe that among everyone present,

except for Deputy Chief Zhu and Wen Yeming,

who have met Chief Cheng,

the rest of you don't know him.

Let me introduce him.

This is

Chief Cheng Huize from the NBIS Shanghai Station.

Chief Cheng,

This is the adjutant to the Commander of the Ninth War Zone.

Nice to meet you.

I'm Cheng Huize,

Chief of Shanghai Station.

This time,

at the invitation of Chief Ke,

I specifically came to Changsha

to assist in the investigation of Yun Hongshen's treason.

This matter might seem puzzling to you.

Yun Hongshen betraying the country?

How could that be?

His father, Yun Muzhi, was killed by the Japanese.

How could he possibly work for the Japanese?

Is he an animal?

But in fact, he did.

How to explain that?

The only reasonable explanation

is that Yun Muzhi didn't die.

Of course.

Words alone are not enough to prove this.

Chief Ke.

In fact, through these photos,

we can prove that

on that day,

Yun Muzhi

was not shot dead at the entrance of Fusheng Tea House.

Of course,

Yun Hongshen and the other three

were captured by the Japanese.

Myna managed to escape

and fled Shanghai.

The news

then flowed out of Shanghai.

In order to recover their losses,

the Japanese found Yun Hongshen

and used Yun Muzhi's life as a bargaining chip

to make Yun Hongshen work for them.

That is the truth.

You've all seen it, right?

By the way, I have something else here.

Yun Hongshen,

this suitcase is the one you retrieved

from the pawnshop yesterday morning, right?

Answer me. Yes or no?

Yes.

So, what's inside it?

Is it something you can't say or just don't want to say?

Okay, I'll help you.

Everyone, look how clear this photo is.

You can even clearly see

the date on the newspaper.

Yun Hongshen, you claimed

that your father was killed by the Japanese.

Then let me ask you,

who is the person in this photo?
