Wan,

goodbye.

Okay.

Bye.

Zhu.

It's time to get off work.

Let's go get dinner.

Long time since we ate.

Wan.

I feel like something's

off about this case.

What's off?

The case's closed.

Relax. Okay?

Let's go eat.

Ms. Zhu,

check this out.

This Ding Youmei is

different from what we expected.

These kids are really

going wild these days.

There's more.

Where's this video from?

I found it online.

Were you researching

the brain's reflection

of light to help Li Ming

study drugs?

You...

How did you get this?

You...

You got into my office?

That's illegal.

You don't have a search warrant.

I'm reporting you for trespassing!

Huang Zhengming.

You...

Tell me.

I...

You got ties

to Raw Diamond?

You...

- Huang Zhengming. - Mr. Huang!

Mr. Huang!

Zhengming.

Mr. Huang!

Mr. Huang!

Huang Zhengming.

Mr. Huang!

Mr. Huang!

Mr. Huang!

Come in.

Okay.

Mr. Bai.

Huang Zhengming reported you

for trespassing.

His neighbor also testified

that you assaulted Huang Zhengming,

causing him to fall and get injured.

Explain this?

I suspect Huang

was involved with Raw Diamond.

Proof.

He's got Li Ming's watch.

And this.

This paper was written by him.

Combined with recent cases,

Li Yiqi and Li Shuting's reactions

to light are completely consistent

with what's written

in this paper.

We checked Huang Zhengming

when we investigated the Raw Diamond case.

It had nothing to do with him.

Li Ming used

his research results.

Huang Zhengming was unaware.

I don't believe it.

Mr. Bai,

Raw Diamond is still escalating.

This means we haven't caught

the real culprit yet.

Huang Zhengming...

Hand over your work

to Gao Yuan.

Take a few days off.

The truth comes after the evidence.

But you've got it backwards.

The truth comes after the evidence.

But you've got it backwards.

Song,

we've been here so many times.

How come we've never seen your daughter?

She's grown up.

I can't control her.

How old are you?

Twenty-nine.

Ding Youmei,

who is Gao Huilan?

She's my mom.

Do you know Liu Yuanyuan?

Look closely.

Does this person

look familiar?

It's me.

Can't I go out with my friends?

Yes, you can.

We're not interested

in who you hang out with.

Ding Youmei, look at this.

Look closely.

Remember?

The button Liu Yuanyuan's mom,

Su Huizhen,

was holding before she died

was torn from this coat

of yours.

There are so

many similar coats.

How can you prove it's mine?

My mom has already confessed.

She admitted to killing them.

It's not evidence at all.

That's not enough?

Wait.

Liu Yuanyuan's mom

once bought her

a stuffed toy.

It contained a

hidden camera.

We found a video.

Can you

recover the video?

The previous data was overwritten.

We need it now.

Okay, I'll try.

Look.

Is this you?

No.

This... It can't be.

This... It can't be!

No. Impossible.

It's impossible!

No.

Impossible.

Go ask my mom.

Let my mom handle this.

Go ask my mom!

Ding Youmei.

No use finding anyone.

Speak.

Come on.

Why did you kill Su Huizhen?

Fine.

When

my dad

died,

I thought my good days

were finally coming.

But what happened?

My mom always said

she was doing it for my own good,

using protecting me as a cover

to make me the girl she wanted me to be.

Is making me

the obedient girl

she envisions good for me?

Am I wrong to want

to live my own life?

Why did she give the money

that belonged to me

to Liu Yuanyuan and her mom?

Why?

Yeah.

They don't love me.

They don't love me at all.

Liu Yuanyuan

was an

ungrateful bitch.

My mom gave her money

to take the exam for me.

She used

that money to treat her mom

so she could live a few more years.

This was

a fair deal.

She didn't want to take the exam herself.

She didn't take it the first year,

but she could have taken it again.

She didn't take it.

Why was she blaming me?

Yes.

Liu Yuanyuan wanted to kill me.

She wanted to kill me.

I acted in self-defense.

She deserved to die!

She wanted to kill me!

She deserved to die!

Ding Youmei,

you killed my mom.

You murdered her.

Why are you

and your mom

haunting me like ghosts?

You know

your mom's health better than I do.

Do you think she

was happy living

in such pain?

Can you say you never wanted

her to die sooner?

Stop pretending.

I was helping you.

I was freeing you from your life.

I was also freeing you

from her life.

You should be thanking me.

You murderer!

If I find out you're asking

my mom for money again,

you'll be the one who dies next.

Give me the button.

Liu Yuanyuan!

Liu Yuanyuan!

I'm telling you,

don't show up

in front

of me again!

Don't ask my mom for money again.

Don't ask my mom for money again!

Liu Yuanyuan,

I don't want to see you again!

You'd better disappear.

What are you doing?

Mom!

She tried to kill me!

You killed my mom.

You have to pay for her life!

Mei.

Tell me.

What have you done?

You...

You really killed her mom?

Yes.

I killed her.

What's wrong, Mom?

Why are you looking at me?

Do you feel that your good daughter

has disappointed you again?

Yuan,

listen to me.

Please,

please don't tell anyone about this,

okay?

Youmei was wrong.

She was wrong.

She knows it.

I beg you,

please don't tell anyone about this,

okay?

You can start

over with your life.

I beg you.

Mei was really wrong.

Please.

I'll give you all my money.

You can go to school,

you can open a bookstore,

or any other shop.

Please.

Don't tell anyone about this,

okay?

I'm sorry.

I can be your mom.

I can take care of you.

Okay? Please.

Don't tell anyone, okay?

Don't tell anyone, okay?

What did I do?

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Mom,

you said you would protect me,

right?

No, that's not it.

You must have made a mistake.

I killed them.

How could it be my daughter?

She was so well-behaved.

How could she possibly kill someone?

I killed Yuan

and her mom.

Gao Huilan,

you keep saying you're

protecting your daughter.

Do you know

that what you did

is harming her?

Eleven years ago,

you had Liu Yuanyuan

take the exam for your daughter.

From that day on,

you chose the

wrong path for her.

If you really wanted to help her,

you should have guided her,

letting her find her own path

through her own efforts.

You should have shown her

what's right.

Your daughter has ended up

like this because of you.

Wait.

Wait.

I don't want to go.

Where's my mom?

Please call my mom to save me!

Call my mom to save me!

Please call my mom to save me!

I'm begging you.

Please call my mom to save me!

Call my mom to save me!

Come on.

Here, your favorite beef tenderloin.

Is there any more?

There's plenty.

Don't order too much.

It's too much.

That's enough.

Thanks.

Don't eat all.

Let's wait for Mr. Qi.

Mr. Qi.

Mr. Qi.

Mr. Qi.

Mr. Qi.

Sit here.

Su, sit.

Mr. Qi,

it's just a suspension.

It's nothing serious.

After noon tomorrow,

you'll still

be the chief forensic pathologist.

Don't worry.

Um,

I'll make a toast on behalf of Mr. Han.

We solved this case.

Everyone worked hard.

Mr. Han said

he wanted to thank Mr. Qi.

Without Mr. Qi,

we wouldn't have

solved it so quickly.

Let's all toast Mr. Qi.

Yeah.

Cheers.

Come on.

Thank you guys.

Mr. Qi.

Come on.

Waiter.

Come on.

Oh, Zhu.

Speaking of which,

your interrogation skills

have improved lately.

You've even

surpassed me.

I never taught you like that.

I learned from my brother.

Ms. Zhu was awesome.

If it were me, I would've

given myself away.

I couldn't do it.

Liu Yuanyuan's mom

once bought her

a stuffed toy.

It contained

a hidden camera.

Tech said the video

was overwritten.

Can't be recovered.

Just a screenshot?

Yes.

Okay, I got it.

You're really something.

What if it gets exposed...

Don't say that. Shut up.

Mr. Qi,

we all hope there's no

misunderstanding between

you and Mr. Han.

Mr. Han pleaded with Mr. Bai.

He told Mr. Bai

he hoped he would

be punished along with you.

Pleading with Mr. Bai

isn't something

you'd do.

Do you know why

I stopped you from

investigating Huang Zhengming?

I solved the Raw Diamond case.

I know better than you whether he's guilty.

But you still insisted.

I did act impulsively

regarding Mr. Huang.

That watch was a gift from Li Ming.

Do you believe my reasoning?

If you're coming to talk

about Raw Diamond,

no, thanks.

Let's do it another day.

Dear citizens,

this is a fire alarm.

Please remain calm

and evacuate in an orderly manner.

Please note,

the fire alarm will sound continuously

for 30 seconds at a time.

Please take immediate action

upon hearing the alarm.

Ensure your safety.

Dear citizens,

this is a fire alarm.

Please remain calm

and evacuate in an orderly manner.

Please note,

the fire alarm will sound continuously

for 30 seconds at a time.

Please take immediate action

upon hearing the alarm.

Ensure your safety.

Li Yiqi is dead?

The fire alarm went off

at 1:15 AM yesterday.

The on-duty

doctor then found

Li Yiqi dead in his ward.

Hospital surveillance footage

shows a person

wearing a doctor's coat

entered the ward

before Li Yiqi died.

But no face was captured on camera.

What's the cause of death?

Mr. Gao's conducting tests.

Everyone,

listen up.

This person is currently the prime suspect.

We'd expand the investigation.

We must find him.

Yes.

We checked the surveillance footage.

He went towards the parking lot.

The cause of death is confirmed.

An allergic reaction

to medication led

to asphyxiation.

It's very likely digoxin.

We found the suspect's license plate.

B53617.

The plate is fake.

But traffic police tracked him

into Fenglin Ducheng Community last night

and he stayed there for an hour.

Coincidentally,

an incident occurred there

at the same time.

Ms. Zhu has already gone there.

The deceased in the Fenglin

Ducheng Community

fall case is Zhai Xixi, 24 years old.

A neighbor heard a heavy thud

around 1 AM last night

and found her lying

on the ground.

The initial assessment

is suicide.

But whether

homicide can be completely ruled out

requires further investigation.

The deceased's father believes

she couldn't have committed suicide.

Mr. Han,

the car was last seen

at a construction site not far away.

A Worker noticed thick smoke

and got suspicious.

When he arrived,

he only found the car.

He didn't see anyone else.

The car was completely burned

when it was found.

Mr. Han,

the car is

completely burned.

What could possibly be left?

Tow it back for inspection.

You mean you just got home when

your daughter fell?

You've been drinking?

I only had a little.

I was not drunk.

Xi.

Xi?

I called out a few times.

Xi?

I didn't see her.

I thought she might

had taken Xiaoshan out.

Xi?

Xi.

Before I could even sit down,

someone knocked on my door.

Zhai! Zhai!

Zhai! Zhai, open the door!

Open the door, Zhai!

Open the door!

Zhai!

Zhai! Your daughter fell!

Come with me.

What's wrong with this elevator?

Come on.

Hurry. Hurry.

I ran downstairs

and saw my daughter

lying there.

With all that

commotion,

didn't you hear

Zhai Xixi's cries for help?

I...

She...

She was mute.

She couldn't make a sound.

Ms. Zhu.

This is Zhai Xixi's brother,

Zhai Xiaoshan.

He just came home.

It was you!

It was you!

You killed Mom,

and now you've killed my sister!

Xiaoshan.

Xiaoshan.

Why did you kill her?

Why did you kill her?

Xiaoshan, let go.

Calm down.

Why did you kill her?

Why?

Calm down.

You ruined this family!

Xiaoshan!

You ruined this family!

Kid, shh.

Xiaoshan.

Xi.

Xiaoshan.

Give me back my sister!

Calm down.

Xi.

Calm down.

Calm down. Speak slowly. Let go.

Come on.

Calm down. Calm down.

He killed

my sister.

Arrest him.

Xiaoshan.

Xiaoshan!

What happened to him?

Xiaoshan?

What's wrong with him?

My son has a heart problem.

Come on.

Ambulance! Hurry!

Call an ambulance!

Mr. Qi,

look.

Zhai Xixi had an unusual

bruise on her left ankle.

Was this injury present

at the scene?

No.

Ms. Zhu, I'll go to the hospital.

Be careful.

I'll ask the neighbors

again.

Ms. Zhu.

Mr. Qi.

The autopsy is over.

There are some doubts.

I want to go back to confirm.

There are several abrasions on the body,

but no contusions or lacerations.

There's a fracture on the right side of the skull.

The cervical spine's severely fractured.

There is a large amount of vomiting blood.

The organs are severely ruptured.

The cause of death

is confirmed as a fall from a height.

The toxicology test?

The results aren't out yet.

Before Zhai Xixi fell,

a witness saw someone

under the tree

constantly flashing

a flashlight.

And she

jumped at the same time.

But that was a blind spot

for the cameras.

Based on everyone's testimonies

and the traces at the scene,

it can be inferred

that she struggled before her death.

She most likely fell accidentally.

Mr. Qi,

what were the doubts you mentioned?

Her right shoe was still on her foot.

Where was the

left shoe originally?

Here.

I checked.

Her right shoe was very

securely fastened.

The laces showed no signs of loosening.

I tried.

It's practically impossible

for her shoe to come off

on its own without the

laces being loosened.

But her left shoe

came off.

So someone loosened

her shoelaces so her

left shoe fell?

Look.

There's blood on the balcony railing.

This means she must have struggled

for a while

while holding onto the railing

before falling.

So her fall

was probably

near vertical.

But her body

was still some distance

from the building.

Let's go downstairs.

Zhu.

I've asked all the

neighbors upstairs.

Didn't get any useful information.

Hello?

Stop. Nobody's there.

That apartment is listed for sale.

This one.

Shiyi Real Estate.

Thanks.

Wan,

call and check.

I don't know what went wrong today.

Someone fell from the building.

Now there are kids fighting

in the stairwell.

So much trouble.

Come on.

Come on in.

This is it.

Has this door been open all along?

I can't quite remember.

Has anyone come recently?

The last person came

was probably last month.

The market is bad lately.

This apartment is old,

and the owner won't lower the price.

Now with this incident,

it's even harder to sell.

Officer,

are you here to investigate the fall?

Mind your

own business.

Besides you, does anyone else have a key

to this apartment?

They only entrusted it to our company.

The landlord left us

a spare key.

We bring clients

to see the apartment.

Ms. Zhu!

Take us over there.

What's wrong, Mr. Qi?

Look.

This clothesline is bent.

There were bruises

on Zhai Xixi's left ankle.

But these marks weren't

on the body

at the scene.

They appeared slowly

during the autopsy.

This is the result

of strong pressure

on the skin.

The signs don't appear immediately.

It can take minutes

or hours.

So

the bruises on Zhai Xixi's ankle

must have been caused shortly

before or after her death.

I suspect

her bruises

were caused by falling

on the clothesline.

Zhai Xixi may not

have fallen accidentally.

She may have been murdered.

Three months ago,

Zhai Xixi bought an insurance

worth three million.

The beneficiary is Zhai Xiaoshan.

Suicide?

She wouldn't abandon us.

The wear on the heels of these two pairs of shoes

is completely different.

When she fell...

There must have been someone else present.

Someone switched her left shoe.

Mr. Han, Mr. Qi.

Got it.

The people who could enter those two rooms

must be real estate agents.

A witness said there were flashes

of light coming from the building across the street.

You suspect she's like

Li Yiqi and Li Shuting?

You all think the truth is important.

Sometimes the truth is meaningless.

Lies always leave traces.
