'Paradise is Close' - Hu Xia

♫ Amidst the raging stormy night ♫

♫ The candle's glow reflects the dark hair of a charming woman ♫

♫ Wrapped in memories year after year ♫

♫ I'm left with nothing but feigning indifference ♫

♫ When I'm tracing the outline of your face ♫

♫ Everything converges and disperses like sand ♫

♫ Bound by destiny, I must make peace with myself,
love can be restored or destroyed ♫

♫ If I could drift away in the clouds ♫

♫ I'll drive away your carefree pretense ♫

♫ Even in a drunken dream ♫

♫ I will always know the person I cherished the most ♫

♫ Even if you are close by, yet as distant as the horizon ♫

♫ I want to hold you, but I can only feign ignorance ♫

[Episode 15]

How beautiful.

- Caiwei.
- This way.

- Come on, come on.
- Wait for me!

Do you still remember ten years ago
when you first came to Heyang and saw the lanterns for the first time?

Of course, I remember.

We managed to get quite some
food that day, and had a nice meal.

I remember you brought home
two lanterns as well.

Do you remember?

Caiwei, look!

One of the shops gave
me these unsold lanterns.

Why don't we do what those people are doing
by writing something on it and hanging it up?

Otherwise, it would be such a waste.

They are doing it for their loved ones.

We don't have to because there is
no one for us to write to.

Maybe not for now, but there might be
someone for us in the future.

Come, write something.

My beloved would be a man who is
graceful, elegant, handsome, and dashing.

He will be as skillful
as those warriors in the martial world.

Even when ambushed from all sides, he will believe in me and protect me.

How demanding you are!

I'm afraid your sweetheart
wouldn't dare to show up.

It's just a wish. You don't need to
pay for it anyway.

Caiwei, what did you write?

Caiwei, you...

It is expected of you.

[Anyone except Pan Yue]

Anyone except Pan Yue.

Caiwei.

Is your current wish the same
as what you wished for back then?

Well, it is no longer up to me to decide.

What about you?

Have you found the person
who will believe in you and protect you?

Are you alright?

I believe in her.

There is one?

There isn't.

I was young and ignorant at that time,
and all I knew was to dream.

After so many years of
being lied to, cheated, and sold around,

I don't believe all that anymore.

Now, I know the only person in the
world who can protect me is Kong Fang.

Xiaosheng, sooner or later you will find
someone who would do anything for you.

Miss Shangguan.

Here, I'm giving the bowl back to you.

- They are...
- Thank you.

They're the family of a victim in the Lantern
Festival Case. Both their parents are dead.

These two sisters only
have each other to rely on now.

How pitiful.

- Shuang.
- Miss Shangguan.

I saw everything
in the middle of the street just now.

The person that you caught, is that the
real culprit of the Lantern Festival Case?

Yes.

Who is he?
Why did he want to kill people?

There is not much
that I can tell you now.

We have to bring him back
to the county ya men for an investigation.

Mr. Pan will make it known to the public,
and give you an explanation.

Stop asking, Shuang.

I believe Mr. Pan will handle this
with fairness and justice.

Oh, right. The weather is very hot
today. Here, have some iced dessert.

Sure!

Thank you, Caiwei. Thank you.

Miss Shangguan has a sweet tooth.

I will add an extra spoonful of syrup
to this bowl of ice.

Thank you.

Shuang.

- We have no money.
- It's okay.

Today is the Lantern
Festival, this will be my treat.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

- Don't worry. There is enough for everybody.
- So delicious!

When I was a kid, I always asked my father why he liked investigating crimes.

Is it worth the risk to catch a criminal?

What do you think he said?

He said he liked to take a
walk on the street at night

and see the people smiling
without needing to worry about anything.

I didn't understand that
at the time, but now I do.

I do, too.

Somewhere ahead is the bridge
that Jiang told us about.

Let's go together and see it.

Caiwei.

You go ahead.

Jiang isn't paying me,
why should I show him my support?

Alright, then. I'll go. Wait for me over here. I'll be right back.

It took her so long to come here. I would love to see how you react to it.

♫♫

Mr. Pan! Mr. Pan!

Mr. Pan is releasing the lantern!

Where is it? Where is it?

Over there, over there!

Look, that's Mr. Pan's lantern!

♫ Anticipating the future ahead alone,
with no way out of it ♫

Why did Mr. Pan release a plain lantern?

Nothing was written or drawn on it.

♫ Remembering your promise
to keep me warm ♫

Look!

♫ Who will draw my tears for me
that outlines the pain of separation ♫

♫♫

Tonight, I'm going to express my feelings
to my beloved one.

I will hang the lantern
in the middle of the bridge.

When the time comes, remember
to come and show me some support.

♫ The cruelty of fate ♫

Look!

♫ Anticipating the future ahead alone,
with no way out of it ♫

♫ As you struggle with your fate,
and get forever entangled ♫

♫ You are left empty with reluctance ♫

♫ Remembering your promise
to keep me warm ♫

♫ Remembering your promise
to keep me warm ♫

Why does this hurt so badly
out of a sudden?

What's wrong with me?

I feel like vomiting.

[Latrine]

That's a long queue. What should I do?

[Huashou Hall]

Mr. Pan.

Young Master, he just came around.

As soon as he woke up,
he confessed to everything.

Where is Gu Yong?

Our people are watching him,
but he hasn't made a move.

Stay where you are. Don't move!

Mr. Pan.

Are you Gu Shan?

The honorable magistrate used
this kind of trick to get me captured.

How despicable.

You have killed so many people, yet you
have the cheek to be calling me despicable.

Let me ask you.

Did you lose a Ripple Token at the crime scene?

What does this token represent?

What does it have to do with your father?

It's got nothing to do with him.

I picked that thing up.

I thought it was rare, so I kept it.

- I don't know what it represents.
- Fine.

I'll ask something that you know.

The people whom you killed,
their wounds were bluish-purple.

Your Blood Sword is made entirely of
Xuan metal, so it wouldn't have left this scar.

What is the secret behind this?

Why should I tell you?

Anyway, I am now in your hands.
You can do whatever you want with me.

He has hidden his identity for so many years.

Why did he confess his real identity without hesitation, yet obscure the explanation for all the other information?

Actually, you don't have to be so wary of me.

I've been to the dungeon
where your father kept you.

I feel sympathy
for what you have gone through.

I'm also aware that the reason why you killed
people is due to that particular experience.

Good that you knew.

However, you still have a
mother who loves you dearly.

She was the one
who opened the stone door for you, right?

So what if that's true?

Young Master, did Gu Yong really hire
someone to take the blame for his son?

It's not to take the blame, it's to confuse us.

He wants to find Gu Shan before we do.

If that's true, wouldn't Gu Shan be...

Oh no. Shangguan Zhi is in danger.

Lantern Festival. Riverside.

Alone in a secluded place.

Miss San!

Watch out!

It's you!

Are you Gu Shan?

Yes. It's me.

I bet you didn't expect it.

The son of Gu Yong that you have been
trying to track down is actually his daughter.

Are you tired of living?

- Let go of me!
- Yes.

I can walk on my own.

I'm under the protection of Young Master Zhuo.

I'll hit whoever I want. Even if I kill
someone, what can you do to me?

A dog bone.

Whoever wants to grab it can do so.
I'm not interested at all.

What are you looking at?
If you keep looking, I'll slap your faces.

The culprit that you caught at the Lantern
Festival was a scapegoat hired by Gu Yong.

He sent this killer after you, waiting
patiently for you to fall into the trap

so that he could find me
before Pan Yue does.

How interesting.

I was standing right in front of him,
but he couldn't even recognize me.

While the people whom I wanted to kill
could never escape from me.

Young Lady!

Young Lady!

Young Lady!

Is Shangguan Zhi not with you?

- I thought she went to find you?
- What happened?

Gu Yong tricked us. The one we just
arrested was pretending to be Gu Shan.

Shangguan Zhi is in danger now.

Zhuo Lanjiang, gather the men, and
search in the direction where you came from.

- I'll lead the rest to search forward.
- Alright.

Young Lady!

What do I do? I must stall
for time in order to survive.

Gu Shan, you thought you
hid it well, but we knew all along.

Impossible.

When you first arrived at the county ya men, pretending to be casual, you were trying to gather information.

Since the murder cases,
the Lantern Festival has been suspended.

There are fewer people walking around
at night. Our business has declined.

We really look forward to
you catching the murderer.

Miss, don't you worry.

Mr. Pan has been investigating the cases
day and night.

Even the cases from last year
are being looked into.

We brought back the Lantern Festival
just to make you show up.

Mr. Pan is nearby and will be here very soon.

Miss Shangguan!

Young Lady!

- Shangguan Zhi!
- Miss Shangguan!

Caiwei!

Miss Shangguan!

Shangguan Zhi!

Young Lady!
Shuang, have you seen Miss Shangguan?

Miss Shangguan was just here
having an iced dessert.

I don't know where she went.

When did that happen?

It was during the lighting ceremony.

[Ice Stall, Mr. Qiang, Wuyou]

The file says the wound is smooth, yet the
blood and flesh are indistinct as shown here.

It is flesh-colored near the wound,
yet the file says it's bluish-purple.

Bluish-purple?

Ice?

Could it be...

Shuang, where is your sister now?

My sister said she had to leave early
to attend to some business.

She told me to guard the cart.

That's enough.
You're just stalling for time.

It's a futile attempt.

Did you know?

When I first met you in Silver Rain
Street, I already wanted to kill you.

People like you rely on the power
that they wield to trample others.

It wouldn't be a pity for you
to die ten thousand times.

Gu Shan, what you're doing
is no different from your father's act.

What did you say?

I know what happened to you in the dungeon,
but that's not a reason for you to kill.

Since you despise violence, why are you resorting to the same thing,

- which is to punish violence through violence?
- Shut up!

You are a self-righteous young lady
who has no idea what I've been through.

Indeed, I do not understand.

I believe it's not easy for anyone to understand what it feels like to be hated by one's flesh and blood.

Gu Yong is very controlling.

Even when he kills someone, he wants to use
the Blood Sword, a weapon of extreme precision,

because he enjoys the thrill of
controlling one's life within a hair's breadth.

You are his only daughter.

There is no son to inherit such a
vast family fortune as the Relief Hall.

He was unwilling to accept the reality.

He... He raised you as a son,
but you refused to submit.

So he tortured you in such a
cruel manner to make you yield.

You are right.

He never regarded me as his close one,

nor did he see me as a person.

He forced me to dress up as a man,
manage the Relief Hall,

and inherit the mantle of the Gu family.

But I don't like it.

I like beautiful things.

I like the fragrance sachet bought
by the maid, and colorful lanterns.

I like beautiful clothes.

I was supposed to be like this.

How did that become
an unrealistic fantasy?

Although my life is mine,
I can't decide for myself.

Shan. Stop hitting her. Stop!

Admit your mistake to your father.
Your father will forgive you.

I did nothing wrong.
Which law did I break? Which law?

I did nothing wrong!

Your disobedience towards your father
and the lack of filial piety is wrong.

How did you do nothing wrong?!

Stop hitting her!

- Take her away!
- I am begging you, Shan!

- Just admit your mistake to your father!
- You were born into the Gu family,

your life belongs to the Gu family!

I am the rule imposed on you!

I am the law imposed on you!

I am the law imposed on you!

What an unfilial child!

If you weren't worried about your mother,

after escaping from the dungeon, you wouldn't
have risked your life staying in Heyang.

Yet, why did you choose
to stay with Mr. Qiang?

- You knew what kind of a person he was.
- A person?

He was contemptible.

His life was not going well, and he took
it out on Shuang when he came home.

When I first met her...

- Cry? Wha's there to cry about? Stand there and don't move!
- She had injuries in her face and body.

I said, stay still! How dare you move!

She was still crying,

yet she handed me
the only candy she had.

Although we are not related by blood,
she really treats me as her sister.

So I have to protect her.

Thus, while he was busy with the Lantern
Festival, you drugged Mr. Qiang's water.

When he went to the river, you used
a Blood Sword made out of an icicle and pierced through his Tiantu acupoint.

Blood gushed into his throat,
he couldn't breathe.

That's why all the victims died of suffocation.

The cold icicle caused frostbite, so the
area around the wound was bluish-purple.

Whenever you killed someone,
you would do it somewhere secluded.

By the time the body was discovered,
the icicle would have melted.

That is why you
committed this crime repeatedly,

yet the county ya men
could not find the weapon used.

From then on, during every summer solstice,

you would be reminded of these painful memories

that made you fail to resist
the urge to murder people.

Therefore, whenever you saw the weak
and the small being bullied,

you would lock your eyes on your targets, and
kill every one of them using the same method.

How rare this is.

It is rare to meet someone
who knows how they would die.

But there's one thing I don't understand.

Since you hate your father so much,

why did you take away his Ripple Token,
and keep it by your side?

As a dying person, I don't think
you need to care about all this.

You might think that you are
performing acts of justice,

but you are no different from your father.

You're just relying on your martial arts
skills, and bullying me because I have none.

You are imposing your rules upon me.

- You're nothing but a pitiful murderer.
- Shut up!

I'm pitiful?

Does someone as arrogant and selfish
as you are even have the right to accuse me?

I'm pitiful?

Fine.

Let us see how pitiful you would look

when you
choke on your blood, and on the brink of death.

Meet your demise.

Why is there a fire by the river?

So what?

Even if the whole Heyang is burnt down,
that's none of my business.

I'm leaving.

There is another game of gambling tonight.

Qing Di, I'm not feeling well.
I'll take my leave now.

What are you laughing at, Miss Qing?

He left in haste.

I guess his plans didn't work out
as how he wanted them to be.

These men thought everything
was within their control,

but they didn't know
arrogance could only make them go blind.

[Tower of Joy]

- Mr. Gu.
- What's going on out there?

The county ya men officers are looking for
Shangguan Zhi all over the streets.

The person that we planted
might have given himself away.

I never really expected this guy
to keep his mouth shut for long.

Seems like Ba made a mistake.

I underestimated that unfilial child.

What do we do next?

Keep an eye on Pan Yue.

And bring my wife.

Yes, Mr. Gu.

- You're awake.
- Jiang.

Caiwei, are you okay?

I am fine.

Young Lady! Young Lady, I finally found you!

I was so scared.
I thought I would never see you again.

Fortunately, Young Master Zhuo came in time.

You saved me?

You were just lucky.

- Where is Mr. Pan?
- He is watching over the criminal.

Young Lady, does he not care for you?

Something major happened to you, yet
he isn't here showing you any concern.

Was that a dream?

Stay still, and don't move!

Are you hurt?

It's a pity that I couldn't kill you
with my own hands.

Do you want to live a life
where you keep on killing people?

Gu Yong's desire for control
ruined your life before this.

You managed to escape from him,

but you are yet again trapped
in the extreme shackles of murder.

Isn't your behavior a form of obsession?

- Take her back.
- Yes, Mr. Pan.

I'm afraid that Gu Yong won't give up.

Let me join them and escort Gu Shan together.

You can rest for a while
before heading back to the county ya men.

- Fu, stay and protect her.
- Yes, Young Master.

Four of you at the back, stay back.
The rest of you, come with me.

Mr. Gu, they arrested Gu Shan.

We shall proceed
according to the original plan.

We cannot let her leave alive.

Yes, Mr. Gu.

Isn't that Miss San who sold
iced desserts? What did she do?

I heard that she is the real culprit
behind the Lantern Festival Case.

They brought back the Lantern Festival
in order to catch her.

You caught my daughter, so I am
here to see her. That is not illegal, right?

What?

No way. How could she be Mr. Gu's daughter?

Didn't Mr. Gu have only a
son who died five years ago?

- I bought iced desserts from her last time.
- When did he have a daughter?

- Well, this is unbelievable.
- I don't know.

She killed so many people. How scary.

Indeed. Mr. Gu's son is actually...

How unexpected.

Yes.

To be worthy of carrying
the Gu family's bloodline,

I deserved to be locked up in a pitch-dark
dungeon, and beaten to a pulp every day.

To you, if I can't be the way that you want,

I don't deserve to exist in this world at all.

The Gu family doesn't have trash like you.

I can, as a woman, wander around this world.

I feel extremely at ease.

Living like this for one day
is better than living for ten years before.

Mr. Gu,

you can't control me anymore.

Are both of you protecting this murderer?

Gu Shan is a murderer, so she will
receive the punishment that she deserves.

However, as a father, you have never
regarded her as your own flesh and blood.

You confined her and tortured her.

Out of everyone here, the one least qualified
to say anything about her would be you.

If you don't get out of the way,
I will have to resort to force.

He didn't come here to teach me a lesson.

He is afraid that I will reveal
the secret behind the token.

How dare you!

Mr. Pan, I'll tell you now.

This arrogant Mr. Gu has done many
shady stuff behind everyone's back.

Shan.

Shan.

Mother.

If you are not afraid of implicating
your mother, then tell everyone.

Shan.

Let go of my mother! What a
bunch of beasts! Let go of my mother!

Gu Yong,
I advise you not to act recklessly!

I gave her life,

so she will have to obey me
until the day she dies.

I won't do anything.

Shan.

Think about it.

I beg of you.

Consider this as you fulfilling your filial
duties to your parents for one last time.

Well...

Do you insist on taking the Gu family
to the grave with you?

Mother.

Let my mother go.

You have my promise.

Gu Shan.

Shan, don't end up like me, who has
always been controlled by this man.

Living such a life is no
different from being dead.

Shut your mouth!

Shan, remember, you will
always be my most precious child.

Always.

Mother!

Madam Gu!

Gu Shan!

Gu Shan!

Gu Shan! Gu Shan.

Gu Shan. Don't die, Gu Shan.

Gu Shan.

[Four]

Gu Shan.

Shan!

Shuang...

Shan!

Shan. Shan.

Shan.

Shan.

- I know.
- Shan.

I will help you take good care of Shuang.

Shan!

Shan! Shan!

- Shuang.
- Shan!

Shuang.

Shan.

Shan, wake up! Shan!

What is the secret behind the Ripple Token that
it was worth killing your child to keep it?

Tell me!

Ze, take him back.

Yes, Mr. Pan! Come with me.

Stay still!

The Gold Water Sect's appearance
is not a coincidence.

Could it be that they are in
cahoots with the Ripple Organization?

I'll go back to the Silver Rain Terrace first.

Looks like Mr. Pan is a reliable man.

Since he could catch Gu Yong,
he is not far from finding out the truth.

Here comes the wind.
