Episode 2

Tsuji-san, what should we do?

Withdraw! Withdraw!

Ms. Melanie

Man

Sir!

Something strange is happening at the Chinese Embassy

The Japanese are looking for a girl that's hiding there

Her name is Melanie

Where are the special forces?

They should be in some random shelter

Tell them to get out and go to the Embassy

We have to go there now

But the air raid is still going on

Bloody goddamn air raids!

When I go, you go too!

Go!

Out of the way!

Our submachine guns are gone

I didn't expect them to be experts in urban warfare

It's impossible to break in now

Let's focus our firepower and try it again

We've lost the opportunity

Think about it

The people inside now understand that

If they attack together

we won't stand a chance

We have to think of another way. Withdraw!

Sir

Shut up!

The air raid will end soon

Do you want to fight with the Royal Military Police?

Mr. Shi, the Japanese retreated!

General Liang, we won!

Good

We've defeated the Japanese

The British will come soon

That fast? It has only been 8 minutes

Yes

How are things from your side?

I'm telling you

this woman is really stubborn

I almost

I almost succeeded

If only the Japanese didn't retreat

Sometimes

being a gentleman works against us

I'm really regretting it

Actually

I should have snatched it

Jeez

Please stop

I'm David Petrie

Chief of the British National Security Department

You let me in?

Please come in, Mr. Petrie

I'm Liang Tong, a Military Staff of the Military Commission

of the Republic of China

David Petrie

Head of the National Security Department

Nice to meet you

You're looking for the Japanese, right?

That's right

Some of them have run away

The rest are all there

How many troops do you have, General?

We have four soldiers, two cooks

and a gardener

This is the smallest battle

you ever fought

You've done a pretty good job

Mr. Petrie

It has been a long time

I'm grateful you are here so quickly

Mr. Ambassador, I'm very sorry

We've come too late

I couldn't imagine

what the aftermath would be

if more attackers were here

But however, you're here so in time

I'm also awfully sorry for that Mr. Ambassador

You're very different from the British Army in Burma

They run away when they see Japanese

You're unbelievable

Even if a German bombing is still going on

you were already on the way

I'm sorry to tell you that

we have to take Mrs. Spiers with us

In her hands

are documents belonging to the Military Headquarters

of our Great British Empire

Ah, I see our Military Headquarters men already arrived

Mr. Petrie

I wish I could do what you ask

As you know

Mrs. Spiers

is a secretary of the American Embassy

As we just noticed that

they are coming to pick her up

I don't know if she's still a Chinese citizen

If she is

we have the obligation

and also we have the capability

to protect her

Mr. Ambassador

Mrs. Spiers' deceased husband,

Commanding Officer William Spiers

a Colonel of our Royal Military Headquarters

has just been killed

We have to start our investigations now

and Mrs. Spiers is a major witness

We can inform the American Embassy

that we're coming to pick her up

If she's still a Chinese citizen

as an ally

I strongly recommend your cooperation in our investigation

Mr. Petrie

is this a request?

Sure, It is

Xiaoman

Here

Please bring Mrs. Spiers here

Yes, sir

Mr. Petrie

As one of the alliance

I will not reject

but I want a share the result of the investigation

Sure, you have my word

Alan

Get these dead bodies out of here and find me some capable chaps

to do the repairing to be done here

Yes, sir

Mr. Ambassador

the attack on your Embassy

shouldn't be made public. It might have a very unpleasant

impact on our investigations

We feel the same

Ms. Melanie

David Petrie

I'm the Chief of the Security Department

We have some questions for you

It won't take long

Mr. Ambassador, thank you very much

See you again soon

Please

Thank you

Let's go!

Unbelievable

They arrived in such a short time

They risked getting bombed by the Germans

to come here

They must have obtained accurate intel

Do a full sweep of the premise

We're being monitored

Impossible

I check every morning and every night

I even checked yesterday at midnight

I found one on the secretary's

desk lamp

But I've already disposed of it

Check again

General

We couldn't find anything

Have you checked everything?

Yes

I see. Go now

Yes, sir

Stay down!

Liang Tong seems to have

detected Melanie's secret approach

But he couldn't figure out

My referral

are you still working for the party?

Can I go back?

I won't let our American friends

wait in that room for too long

One for you too?

Getting some pure alcohol in times of war

is a really good thing, isn't it?

Exquisite

So

why did Officer William bring his documents back home?

I don't know the file

I only know him for journey today

So, he didn't tell you something?

Anything

He said he will always love me

This is your book, isn't it?

Did you read it?

So

you also don't know

what was in this chamber?

And where did it go?

What do you want me to tell you?

This was William's book, wasn't it?

You're lying

And Officer William is already not able to prove

if he was a spy or not

Please don't insult him

No, my dear

Don't get me wrong

I will find this thing

and I put it in front of you

And I prove that you are lying

You are the spy!

And if that's so, you're gonna be executed

That's for sure

Melanie

What I'm trying to tell you here is

the only one who can help you

is yourself

Liang Tong's military knowledge

and tact tell him that

what he faces are not simple photos

but a great secret that affects China's future

He remembered his responsibility to the organization

and believed it's time to take action

Washington, D.C.

Shi Yang, Foreign Ministry Secretary of the Republic of China and the Special Assistant of Soong May-ling

There's an emergency

Madam Soong wants to cancel her trip

to visit the army in Mongyu

We need to review the delegation to America as well

Liu Feiyun, Lieutenant General, the Deputy Minister of Operations Department of the National Government

Zeng Guangxi, Major General, the Deputy Minister of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics

Meeting's over. Await your orders

Madam Soong wanted

Mr. Jiang Jingguo and General Liu to lead the delegation

After meeting with Mr. Hurley, the American Ambassador

in Kolkata

they will visit the army in Mongyu together

The battle in Mongyu signifies a great victory

Madam Soong feels truly sorry for not being

able to visit the soldiers personally as planned

The Japanese are too rampant

They attacked our Embassy in London

It happened at a time when the Germans

conduct their daily raid in London

The Japanese acted with impunity

under the Germans' bombing

Madam Soong will deal with the London incident personally

There was no coverage

of the terrible incident

on the radio, newspaper, and TV

even after so many hours had passed

What's even more intriguing

is the British government's silence

Shi Jihong just mentioned this

in his routine telegram

without any opinion or attitude

Do you mean

that our Embassy in London

reached some sort of agreement with the British?

Yes, that's about right

I know your father Mr. Shi Jihong

for over ten years

He was not a weak person

Never

Something big must have happened

Zeng Guangxi sensed something fishy through the abnormality

The secret Yalta conference between the United States,

Great Britain, and the Soviet Union

attracted the attention of various countries

from the two opposing camps

It aroused the intelligence officers

of these countries

who are willing to risk their lives to obtain the secrets behind it

On the Eastern Battlefield, the CPC

KMT, and Japan

all activated their key intelligence system

This diagram shows the border of the battlefields

The occupants are the Soviet Union, the United States

and Great Britain

Such an important decision

can only be made by the Big Three

Winston Churchill from Great Britain

Joseph Stalin from the Soviet Union

and James Roosevelt from the United States

According to the time shown

eight days have passed

since the Conference started

The time matches with another piece of information here

Two of Churchill's think tanks

have not shown up at the club in this period

The conference had not announced

any details to the public

other than it is being held in Yalta

This is very strange

From what we gathered

the session for political agenda is over

These are the strategic plans

they've made based on the result

of the Yalta conference

There's also the possibility that these are only British plans

If that's so

then the war will end soon

There's another possibility

that this is fake

They wanted to spread it through our hands

There's that possibility as well

Mr. Shi, I want to ask you about this term

It was mentioned many times in the article

Argo

Argonauts

According to legends

the Argonauts refer to

the story of a band of heroes in Ancient Greek

who went to find the golden fleece at the coasts of the Black Sea

A long time ago

a Greek boat left Constantinople

They sailed in the Black Sea for many days

before they encountered a storm

and lost their way

Just as the sailors despaired

they saw rays of light coming from the eastern skies

And then green mountains and shores revealed themselves

The sailors cheered in happiness

Yalta! Yalta!

The origin of the name Yalta

It is also the location of the Conference

It's in Crimea

Golden Fleece

You know how the British love their puns, right?

Then, there must be a golden fleece they want

Then, what is this golden fleece?

What do the Great Britain

and the United States want from the Soviet Union?

An attack from the Far East

Then, this is

the golden fleece

that Churchill and Roosevelt wanted

They hope that after the Germans are defeated

the Soviets will lead their army to the Eastern lines

into Northeast China

and wipe out the Japanese Kwantung Army

If that's true

the Japanese will be defeated immediately

The war ending with Japan's defeat is a good thing

We should be happy

But somehow, I don't have

a good feeling about this

But this proposal

makes sense military-wise

Chief

We need to check our General Staff

Yes. Especially in details

Alright

Thanks, Alan

Lieutenant Eddy from headquarters, please

From the perspective of a soldier

when their army had paid such a high price

they will not be willing

to part away from the territory they had occupied

How about from the perspective of a politician?

They will never be satisfied with what they have in their hands

They will also aim for the things in other people's hands

Making these allied countries

withdraw from the territory

they occupied China

will be extremely difficult

I believe that this is how

they will split China after the war

So, they plan all these behind our backs

These allied countries are bandits

Mr. David, you still think I'm not busy enough?

I'm very sorry

but we have a new development

in the murder case of Officer Williams this morning

Okay, what is it?

Let's cut it short

What is Argo voyager or Argo navigator? What does it mean?

I will let the Secretary go outside

Lieutenant? Are you still there?

How did you know about this?

Was in Officer William's suitcase

something related to that?

David, you're really stepping out of line on this

My surveillance report tells me

that they are talking about this topic

in the Embassy right now!

Yeah. You said it right

Thanks

Yes?

Make sure that

not one single word of these Chinese conversations is leaking

Yes, sir

Chief, the Chinese are going to

transfer some information home

Alan, listen to me

The Chinese already broke

the Headquarters' code

Put everybody of them under surveillance

Okay. Yes, sir

Edward!

Counselor

I've received

a notice from the British Military Intelligence

They said no one from the Chinese Embassy

can leave England

All forms of transportation

will be closed to the staff

of our Embassy

Insolence!

They have no right to do that!

Yes

The British had given us an official explanation

They need the staff of our Embassy

to cooperate in the investigation

of Colonel William's murder

Ms. Melanie

I can give you the information

that the Chinese side knows about the secrets in the suitcase

Do you have any idea how I prefer to treat secret agents?

I smash their brains out!

Melanie was unusually calm

From David Petrie's words

she deduced that the intel

had reached General Liang Tong's hands

Though Melanie had lost her memories

as a Chinese

patriotism runs deep

in her blood

And she felt

naturally close to Liang Tong

We need to appeal this decision

I already did

They said

it's wartime

The murder of Colonel William

is related to the secrets of the Allied armies

So, this is a special circumstance

They hope we can understand

Counselor

our radio was disrupted by a strong signal

We can't perform our work

What? It was fine a moment ago

We can't even call out

Our communication with the outside world

has been cut

We're being monitored

David Petrie has shown up

It seems that the British didn't sit idle after all

Check which room it is

That must be the British surveillance room

The Chinese have a saying

behind the mantis hunting the cicada is the goldfinch

Goldfinch?

We're the goldfinch in this case

Can we confirm

that the Chinese know about the intel in the briefcase?

This mini camera

Don't you think it's weird?

We will check it before we start our operation

The British will do it for us

Is this intel that important?

Please believe in my brother Masanobu Tsuji

He's a genius

Do you know what's most important?

If you have a chance to meet him

you will be confused

He's my identical twin

If I remove my glasses

we will look exactly the same

This is the last intel we received from the Germans

Chief

General Liang, you're from Sichuan, right?

I heard that Sichuan women are virtuous

Introduce one to me

Xiaoman

I heard that you're from Northeast China

Which part are you from?

Shenyang

That's a great place

A lot of people, a lot of lands

And we all love to eat rice

Liu

Quick, get us back in there!

Find out what's bugging our signal! Go!

Check the device, quickly

Get the signal back

Look, the speaker is connected

to these metallic wires

They've set this up a long time ago

We've used the detector many times in the past

We can't even detect it

British technology is far more advanced than ours

Follow the wire

and find out where's their surveillance room

We must lodge a strong protest against this

Yes, sir

I will move out at once

Go

Yes, sir

How did you know we're being monitored?

We've only talked about Melanie

in the guest room

and in your office

The guest room has a rather simple setting

So

it must have happened in your office

I didn't expect it

to be under the floor of your office

Such a hidden place

with such an advanced piece of equipment

We're a member of the Alliance

Look

they are treating us like enemies

Mr. Shi

Logically speaking

this is not necessarily a bad thing

The reaction of the British

means the intel is true

Sir, come here. Take a look!

We have to cut off any connections leading to us. Clean up all the wires

Don't let them find us here

Yes, sir

I'm going to buy us some time

It's time for the harvest

What are they doing?

Something interesting is going to happen

We must destroy all the photos

Do you remember the key points?

We only need the minutes

That has to be destroyed too

The Japanese will come again

Mr. Petrie! Look over here!

Look at what I found!

Go home

Bye!

Five left

Among them is a person named Alan

It's time to make a move

Yes, sir

Was Melanie Emi Nakayama?

Was she

the person who brought him into the CPC

Questions after questions

appeared in Liang Tong's mind

Why did Melanie hand him

the secrets?

What is her true goal?

What is her real identity?

There were no answers to these questions

Liang Tong couldn't see through the fog

He must uncover the truth

That's because he needs to verify the intel

He knows that

the intel showed a great threat to China's interests

It will affect the direction of the Chinese war against Japanese aggression

There must not be any mistake with the intel

I cannot let you return to China alone

September 1931 Tokyo, Japan

The war against Japanese aggression is every Chinese's responsibility

You must continue studying at Imperial Japanese Army Academy

This is the order from the organization

Remember, the revolution is not about a romantic relationship

You must remember what discipline is

I can confirm that the radio station still exists

but is not in operation

This means

if we charge inside now

we can take a glimpse at their treasures

Let's go

Even if Liang Tong

believes that the intel is highly likely to be true

Melanie provided

he will not send the intel

back to China

He knows that the validity of this intel

is a double-edged sword

If it is true

he can protect China's national interest

If it's not, it can also hurt China's national interest

Cover me

Yes, sir

John!

I'm very curious to know

when he took the chance to take the pictures

of these documents

Mr. Petrie

Our monitoring stations have been attacked

The Japanese for sure

Have the Chinese really obtained the secrets of the briefcase?

We will know once we get in

Anyway

this is the only time we can attack them

We've attracted the attention of the Royal Military Police

The main issue is stopping the Chinese from making any noises

Yes, sir

General

There were movements in the yard

Let's make the British protect our place

Damn

These sly Chinese

Not bad

They will come at any moment

Forget it. Let's withdraw

The deadline

David Petrie promised the American Embassy has arrived

He must hand over Melanie

Even if he is still filled with suspicions

Even if he desires to know

what kind of secret

was kept inside the book

We can use the secret passage

Tell me

Here

There's a commercial ship at a port downstream of the River Thames

We can take the ship downstream to leave London

and enter the North Sea

Then, follow the coast up north

and enter the Wash

before going back to River Great Ouse

and reach Bedford

There is an airport there

that belongs to the Royal Canadian Air Force

It's a small airport

so no one really pays attention to it

The plane that flies from America to Iceland

will be waiting for us there

Is this the route we used

to import our planes from America?

Yes, the planes we imported from America

fly to the United Kingdom

and then to North Africa

across the Mediterranean Sea to Egypt

and then the Red Sea, Karachi

Calcutta

and finally the starting point of the Hump

Tingjiang Airport

Xiaoman

We often use this air route

In normal circumstances

our planes do not need to land at Bedford

But this time, the Hump

requested a C47 cargo plane

As there is only one plane

so it will use this small airport

Don't worry. No one will notice it

Sir

Alan

What about Mrs. Spiers?

She already went back

I have some information for you

The Chinese want to go home

The Chinese Embassy is going to open some secret corridor

Someone is going to cross the border secretly

I guess it is the Ambassador who wants to go back

Are you sure they have no idea

that we are tapping their secret conversation?

I'm pretty sure they don't know

They haven't even seen us

If he has no intel

that means we can do nothing

But if something happens to the Ambassador

it can cause an international scandal

You let out some of that information

I want to see the Japanese how they come up for themselves

Are you trying to attract the Japanese with bait?

Of course

The Ambassador is a juicy kind of bait

Liang Tong

We should discuss some of the details again

I'm going back to China

This is a very dangerous mission

I should go instead

All the details are inside my head

Now, the British had locked

all our official routes back

I will leave secretly

First thing in the morning

Do you intend to take them by surprise?

Yes

But this is a very dangerous mission

If you use the secret passage

all your diplomatic protection will be gone

Are you trying to use the British to perform an act

so the Japanese will believe

that you have already obtained the intel in that briefcase?
