[Under the Skin Ⅱ]

[Episode 28]

Mr. Shen.

Where is Mr. Fang?

Mr. Fang is in the laboratory.

It seems there's been a key breakthrough today.

My mission

is to use genetic science

to fix the Creator's flaws,

creating a human race that,

with each generation, becomes better than the last.

DNA

is a powerful storage device.

Take humans, for example,

the vast amount of data

in DNA

contains even more

dark secrets that cannot be revealed.

[Jiangcheng Kailai Biotechnology]

[Jiangcheng Kailai Biotechnology]

What are you looking for?

[Jiangcheng Kailai Biotechnology]

You have betrayed my trust.

This poor guy, Cao Jian.

His family feud had

just ended

and he finally had a child at his old age.

But both the mother and child died.

Do you think

he was telling the truth?

Right now,

he's completely caught up in his emotions.

There's no evidence at all.

But look.

From Zhou Shanshan to Tang Keying,

Fang Kaiyi

has always been connected to the case.

My intuition tells me

that things

aren't that simple.

With Mr. Shen not here,

you're starting to rely on intuition too.

Be careful of Captain Cheng.

Captain Cheng isn't here either.

We have news.

Captain Cheng.

An Luran has been

deported back to the country.

That's great.

Once she's back,

does this mean

the case can be closed?

What's wrong with Captain Cheng?

We could clearly close the case now,

why is he still...

I don't know.

[Jiangcheng Kailai Biotechnology]

You said

you wanted to explore the boundaries of human nature.

you said you wanted

to make life choices anew.

I believed you.

I thought we were on the same path.

But now I know.

That was just my expectation.

When you chose

to cross the boundary...

We were destined

to part ways.

But Shen Yi, I don't regret it.

I'll never regret

unreservedly

opening my heart to you.

At least in that moment,

I felt liberated.

But did you really reveal everything?

Tang Keying's death

was orchestrated by you, right?

Captain Cheng.

You asked us to reinvestigate

all the evidence in Tang Keying's case.

After further analysis of Wu Bin's

dashcam by the Municipal Bureau's

Technical Investigation Division,

we found an important clue.

[Beijiang Criminal Investigation Team]

Is Tang Keying

really dead?

I'm certain.

How did it happen?

I took the syringe,

but I didn't expect their conflict

to be more intense than imagined.

I mixed the syringe

into Tang Keying's torn bag.

In the end, An Luran did it.

Where is she now?

An Luran is preparing to leave the country.

She's processing the paperwork.

Hurry up.

The police will be here soon.

When that happens,

you stick to your story about me.

Say I killed her.

Blame you?

An Luran can't be caught.

We must let her escape.

Only then can this matter be resolved.

Mr. Fang.

Whatever you say,

I'll do it.

Is this

your conversation with Fang Kaiyi?

You don't have to tell us.

We'll do a voice test.

You're not only guilty of

damaging a corpse,

but you're also an accomplice to murder.

Wu Bin.

Loyalty

won't protect Fang Kaiyi.

Tang Keying, I'm telling you,

whether you like it or not,

you must come with me today.

Let go!

Let's go.

Mr. Fang said he provoked Tang Keying.

Let's go.

An Luran would definitely argue with her.

Come back!

Come back, you're not allowed to go anywhere!

He told me to assist when I had the chance.

Tang Keying can't be allowed to live any longer.

Ms. An!

She brought

a euthanasia injection for animals.

Mr. Fang saved my life.

I'll do whatever he tells me to do.

What else did you do for him?

He wanted me to confess

that I killed Tang Keying,

then implicate him,

and finally reveal

that An Luran did it.

All of this was

to delay you

from finding An Luran.

He saved your life.

You survived.

But you survived

only to become his pawn.

You took advantage of

the conflict between Tang Keying and An Luran,

exploited Wu Bin's loyalty,

and even exploited

my trust in you.

That's because she was stupid.

She betrayed me.

She sold out An Luran too.

Do you think An Luran

would let her live for long?

If she didn't die, we'd all die.

She forced me to do this!

What about that child?

The child in Zhou Shanshan's womb.

Did he force you too?

That day, Zhou Shanshan was there.

She told me with a face full of happiness

how much she was looking forward to

the birth of that child.

But because of your intervention,

because of your crossing the line,

two living beings

died just like that.

This is the price of success.

As long as I succeed once,

no one will remember these failures.

You know what?

This is the difference between you and me.

I want to save lives.

While you're killing people.

Killing?

These are all your intuitions.

You have no evidence.

No one will believe you.

Photo number B-51.

I'm talking about

the design of your studio.

You've adopted its structure.

This is your Eden...

The place that makes you feel

the safest.

You're not as confident

about your research

as you appear to be.

Repeated failures

are eroding your patience.

You're like me.

We're both haunted by nightmares.

Only in this Eden

can we feel safe

and calm.

So I guess

the evidence you're demanding

must be hidden here.

Oh, by the way.

I noticed that

there are many

butterfly cocoons on this tree.

Golden ones.

They're beautiful.

Look at them.

How unique they are.

They're about to hatch.

They can't possibly hatch.

Because I can't feel

any life moving inside.

You 3D-printed them.

Didn't you?

You said that

DNA

is a powerful storage device.

Inside these

must be all your experiments

and test records,

including Zhou Shanshan's

and her unborn child's.

Because what you're most looking forward to

is the moment when your hand-engineered

genetic embryo

emerges from its cocoon as a butterfly.

This

is your evidence of crime.

This is also

the starry sky I wanted to share with you.

Captain Cheng.

Everyone has assembled.

Shall we head to Kailai Biotechnology?

Jiang Feng.

I won't be going this time.

You lead the team.

When you arrive, don't go in yet.

Wait for my orders.

Understood.

Why is that?

I know this idea is risky

and immature.

But I also want

to be like you were back then

and point him in the right direction.

Let me

handle this matter.

Shen Yi.

You possess the most

perfect genes I've ever seen.

You've seen

how perfectly I repaired

Cao Jian's genetic defects.

I wanted that child to have

a healthy body,

stable emotions,

and a higher IQ.

Although I failed,

as long as I still have a chance,

I will definitely achieve it one day.

And at that time,

humanity will take a great leap forward.

Let me leave here.

Let me continue in a place

where ethics and laws are more relaxed.

You know it.

I'm just

one step away from success.

But I don't agree with this kind of progress.

Have you ever considered

a spiritual possibility?

That baby's

final uncontrolled genetic mutation

was a form of rebellion against your intervention.

None of us has the right

to define what life

should be like.

We have even less right

to decide others' birth, aging, illness, and death.

Then what about your so-called crime prediction?

Isn't that also intervention and change?

You're like a mirror to me.

You've made me see myself.

I used to be like you.

I thought I could rely on

my own perceptions and standards

to infer human nature

and judge good and evil.

It's you who made me realize that

we can discover the truth...

But we must respect

the rules of this society...

And the laws of nature.

You've disappointed me so much.

Is this what you want?

To send me to prison,

to make it impossible for me

to realize my life's value?

Is that it?

You're sacrificing others' lives

to break out of your cocoon and become a butterfly.

In the end,

you'll only end up entangling yourself.

Turn yourself in.

Fang Kaiyi.

What are you doing?

This is also my perfect work.

Promise me.

Let a heartbroken scientist

be recorded on

the last page of your Human Nature Atlas.

This is my only request.

You shouldn't give up,

even if you've failed before.

Fang Kaiyi,

I've already completed it!

It's a portrait of you.

The you that I've perceived.

Ever since I first saw you,

♫Trapped in staring, questioning, and guessing♫

I've wanted to paint my feelings

about you.

But

painting you was like painting myself.

It was too hard.

♫Talent hangs above the abyss♫

I had to face myself with complete honesty and openness.

♫Believe or doubt♫

♫Talents also have standpoints♫

♫A monster or a genius♫

♫Always one or the other♫

♫Heal the mind♫

♫Light up the eyes in the dark♫

♫Moving thoughts♫

♫Shaking carefully♫

You encouraged me

to embrace my talent and intuition.

♫How many sides does nature have?♫

It was like a knife,

allowing me to cut through the surface

and reach the truth.

♫Clues intertwine, real or unreal♫

But it was also you

who showed me that its sharp edge

♫The strokes of destiny♫

could bring harm

♫Choices in the face of conflict♫

and disasters.

♫Breaking boundaries in light and shadow♫

We're both people who want to change outcomes.

♫Only to be bound by oneself again♫

But that outcome

should be about liberating people,

♫Heal the mind♫

not controlling them.

This is the true meaning of our existence.

♫Light up the eyes in the dark♫

♫Save the life♫

Painting you

was like saying goodbye to my past self.

♫The more you desire for the extreme♫

I want you to experience this farewell too.

♫The more abnormal it is♫

Now

♫Weak and passionate all the same♫

I can finally paint it.

♫Feel alive♫

♫In darkness and in the light♫

♫Feel alive♫

♫People are simple strokes♫

♫It's an illusion♫

♫And the truth♫

Want to take a look?

So this is how you see me

[Hang up]

[Du Cheng]

all along.

Dark,

ugly,

and evil.

You're humiliating me at the very last moment!

[Hang up]

[Shen Yi]

This is how you were meant to be.

Prometheus.

Yes.

Sacrificing yourself

for the perpetual existence of humanity,

[Hang up]

[Shen Yi]

an endless hope.

Come with me.

Emerge from your cocoon.

[Hang up]

[Shen Yi]

Okay.

[Hang up]

[Shen Yi]

Hello.

Jiang Feng.

You can go up now.

The case is closed.

Mr. Shen,

what did you say

to Fang Kaiyi?

How did he agree to turn himself in?

Is there really evidence

in such a small cocoon?

How did he put it inside?

How is it, Captain Cheng?

The provincial department has

decrypted the information in that cocoon.

They found

artificial DNA chains inside

storing Fang Kaiyi's

experimental data from illegal operations.

There really is evidence in this cocoon?

And they also discovered

that Fang Kaiyi is

the technical core of Maoyu Group.

He used his

overseas study background

to explore many gray areas.

The group profited enormously from this.

Such a good scientist,

why did it come to this?

The technical department's

gene sequencer has arrived.

Let's all go help out.

They allocated that to our bureau?

Because of this case,

they specially introduced a piece of equipment.

Then I'll go try it out.

Let's go.

Let's go.

I want to try it too.

How did you know I was here?

Intuition.

Thank you.

That day,

you didn't let Jiang Feng

bring people in directly.

What about you?

Why didn't you come that day?

Jiang Feng...

Has matured.

It's time to let him take charge.

♫I'm here waiting for someone♫

♫To cut me open♫

♫Look at my deepest♫

♫Silent monologue♫

♫The world has to♫

♫Separate everything♫

♫Love, hate, good or bad♫

After you and Fang Kaiyi

left that day,

♫Existing in contrast♫

I was in your office,

looking at the Human Nature Atlas covering the walls.

♫I'm waiting for you♫

I found that in every painting you drew,

♫To feel relieved♫

you captured not only the people,

but also their hearts.

♫Whether I say it or not♫

All kinds of it.

♫You'll understand anyway♫

At that moment, I suddenly realized something.

♫When I fly♫

♫To the sky♫

I've always advised you

♫I turn around and you're still there♫

to respect boundaries when you do things.

But I was wrong.

♫I won't wander away♫

My boundary

had actually restricted your talent.

♫Have you seen the light♫

Shen Yi.

♫Between the black and white♫

You're a genius.

♫A ray of light♫

You like to fly in the sky,

while I

♫Between our locked gaze♫

prefer to run on the ground.

That's right.

♫There is a world♫

Wherever you run to,

♫Where our original hearts remain♫

I'll fly there too.

Du Cheng.

♫I can be sure you will♫

Do you know

why I love the Beijiang Branch so much?

♫Take my hand♫

Because every time

I'm about to fly out of bounds,

there's always someone on the ground

willing to pull me back with all their might.

It's not my talent

that pushed me past my boundaries,

but the inner demon

I hid in my heart long ago.

If it weren't for you,

♫Give me a drop of tear♫

I would have probably been shattered to pieces long ago.

♫That smears open♫

You know?

♫Maybe it can blend in♫

The two of us

♫A new color♫

are like a compass.

♫The lines cross paths♫

I can draw the biggest circles

♫Creating a gap♫

because

♫For a place♫

you are the center point.

♫The light can shine in♫

Wherever you are,

the circle follows.

♫Have you seen the light♫

♫Between the black and white♫

♫A ray of light♫

♫Where our original hearts remain♫

♫I can be sure you will♫

♫Take my hand♫

♫Have you seen the light♫

♫When shadows overlap♫

♫A light shines in the blur♫

♫Between our locked gaze♫

♫That's the world flowing♫

I will always be

your best trump card.

♫With our true hearts and intentions♫

♫Will you also think that♫

♫The world is flowing♫

♫With our true hearts and intentions♫

♫Will you also think of♫

♫Walking with me♫

♫Along with the light♫

What's the FTO gene?

How does it cause obesity?

I'm not fat either.

Am I fat?

No, you're not.

You're not fat now.

But being a bit chubby is good.

It can hold down good fortune.

Do you want this good fortune?

Yes, I do.

What's yours?

Let me see.

Let me see.

Hair... hair loss.

The baldness gene.

It's okay.

If I really lose all my hair,

I'll just style it like a 1-9 haircut.

It'll look pretty trendy.

Alright, if that day really comes,

I'll definitely spend a fortune

to make you a wig.

Zhou.

Help me schedule a mammography.

Um,

for breast cancer, I don't have it yet.

It's not for your sister-in-law.

It's for me.

Thank you for your trouble.

Does Mr. Yan have breast cancer?

Can men get it too?

It's alright, Mr. Yan.

This isn't 100% certain.

It's just a very small probability.

No, it's just...

Looking at this prediction result,

I suddenly feel like

something's not quite right.

What's yours?

Let's see.

5-HT 1A CG type.

What kind of gene is this?

The single gene.

So it means you can't find a boyfriend, huh?

Let me tell you,

stop looking in the comment section from now on.

It's not reliable.

Captain Cheng.

Show me yours.

Lack of vitamin B

absorption ability.

Lack of vitamin B,

I know about this.

It's easy to get mouth ulcers.

My mom is like that.

[The story is still going on. Beijiang Team will never part.]

Your gene report

is quite ordinary.

Mr. Shen,

what about yours?

Mine is also very ordinary.

Please don't come, Director Zhang.

What do you mean? Am I not welcome?

It's not that.

I'm just having a small birthday celebration

at a small restaurant.

If you, such an important person, come,

the place won't be able to accommodate you.

Hello.

The number you have dialed is currently busy.

Don't give me that.

Are you afraid that if I come,

everyone won't be able to relax?

That's part of the consideration, yes.

Hello.

The number you have dialed is currently busy.

Then I won't come.

You all have a good time.

This meal is on me.

Happy birthday, Du Cheng.

Thank you, Director Zhang.
