[Episode 13]

[Shanghai Public Concession General Police Station]

Governor Xu,

I know who did this to Brother Guangyao.

Miss Mu,

who are they?

Miss Mu, you can't just rely on guessing.

Of course not. They said two sentences when they kidnapped me that day.

Those two sentences alone are enough for me to know who they are.

Okay. Let me take a look.

Don't you know what our boss does?

He deals with gullible people every day.

We should just do as he says.

Did they speak some kind of jargon?

Yes. "Taking a look" means checking the goods.

It's commonly used in pawnshops.

And they said their boss deals with gullible people.

By gullible, they are talking about others giving them money, then handing over the goods.

So they must be related to a pawnshop.

Executive Director.

I suggest checking all pawnshops in Shanghai immediately

to find out who was behind it all.

- Okay. - No.

Miss Mu, did you come here specifically

to get Commander Tan out of trouble?

I was there at the scene.

I'm just here to provide valuable clues.

I'm not trying to exonerate anyone.

And maybe it was Commander Tan

ordering someone else to kidnap me.

So the priority...

is to find the mastermind behind it,

so that the truth can be revealed.

What Miss Mu said is a solution.

Moreover, we can focus on checking

the pawnshops that were closed for two days.

We might be able to get some clues.

Then we'll wait until then

before we draw any conclusions.

But, Commander Tan,

before the truth comes out, you're still a suspect.

I'll let your men go first.

But I hope you'll keep them in check.

Of course. Don't worry, Mr. Executive Director.

[Shanghai St. John Hospital]

Selling newspapers! Selling newspapers!

- It's been a long night. - Selling newspapers!

The two hours outside the operating room

- seemed longer than a lifetime. - Selling newspapers.

Yes.

But fortunately, Guangyao is fine now.

Selling newspapers!

The militia might have kidnapped Miss Mu!

Selling newspapers!

Selling…

[Tan Army Militia is Prime Suspect of Mu Family Kidnapping Case ]

As I said, I knew it had something to do with Tan Xuanlin.

He did exactly what we've expected.

I should have kicked his ass last night.

Can you not be so impulsive all the time?

We don't know the truth yet.

Don't make a mess.

No way.

I can't let him get away with it.

I have to do a good job spreading this news.

I'll buy all these newspapers.

Give them to anyone you see. Do you understand?

Thank you, Brother! Thank you, Brother!

Free newspaper. Free newspaper.

Here you are.

- So childish! - Free newspapers!

[Shanghai News Agency] Get out of Shanghai!

[Tan Bandits Get Out of Shanghai]

[Tan Army Please Leave Shanghai] Get out of Shanghai!

[Shanghai Public Concession General Police Station]

[Tan Bandits Get Out of Shanghai!]

Get out of Shanghai! Get out of Shanghai!

Get out of Shanghai!

Calm down, everyone.

The kidnapping wasn't the Tan Army's doing.

We also have a lead.

I promise you'll receive an explanation soon.

Commander Tan,

we all do business in the concession.

We were all happy to know about the establishment of the militia.

- There is finally someone who will ensure our safety. - Yes.

But we really didn't expect

the militia to be comprised of men who were bandits.

If we had known this before, we would not have agreed.

- Exactly. - Right!

We disagree!

Absolutely not!

We disagree! Disagree!

We don't agree!

We disagree! We disagree!

Everyone, please remain calm and listen.

We don't agree!

Sir, the Tan Army is disciplined

and has never interfered with people's lives.

Someone has framed them.

But I'm sure the truth will come out.

We don't believe you.

You say you haven't done it this time.

- But what about the next time? And the time after that? - Yeah!

Can you promise not to do anything to us within our lifetime?

Also, all armies stationed in Shanghai have bothered us before.

You may say that your men are disciplined,

but we can't trust you.

We don't believe you.

- Get out of Shanghai! - We don't believe you.

Isn't it just a ticking time bomb?

- Yeah! - That's right!

Listen to me!

The bandits have already entered the city.

How do you expect us to live?

Yeah!

- How do you expect us to live? - Get out!

Get out! Get out!

Get out!

Get out of Shanghai!

Commander Tan.

Shanghai is a place with rules.

Your army is used to being so wild,

so I'm afraid you won't be able to adapt.

We hope you will leave Shanghai soon and give us peace.

Get out of Shanghai! Get out of Shanghai!

[Keep Quiet]

Brother Guangyao.

Please don't leave me anymore.

Don't worry.

I won't leave you alone.

I'll protect you forever.

Supervisor Xu.

You finally woke up. Thank God.

How are you feeling now?

What happened?

You got shot in the lung

and almost bled to death.

Thankfully Commander Tan gave you a blood transfusion

and saved your life.

Commander Tan gave me his blood?

He gave you 600 ml.

Only Commander Tan was healthy enough.

Had it been someone else, they would have been lying in bed.

Please take a rest first. I'll inform your family.

Get out of Shanghai!

Commander Tan,

I think it's better to disband the Tan Army.

Otherwise, the public outrage

will undoubtedly affect your position as Commander of Shanghai.

Military Governor Xu, only time will tell.

I'm not afraid of these kinds of tricks.

Commander Tan, do you think

the Municipal Council will keep you after all of these complaints?

Commander Tan,

I was trying to do a good thing for the British Concession,

but now you've made the situation worse.

How can I explain this to everyone?

Don't worry, Executive Director.

Here come the people who will explain it to you.

Excuse us. Let us through.

Everyone. How disciplined is the Tan Army?

You can ask them yourself.

Who… Who are you?

We are all scattered soldiers who have lost battles before.

No one cares about our livelihood.

Only Commander Tan treats us as human beings.

With Commander Tan here, we are willing to be good citizens

even if we are aggrieved.

I'm a refugee from Hunan.

Both of my sons died in the war.

If Commander Tan hadn't taken us in,

given us food and clothes,

we would have died outside of Shanghai.

How can such an army disturb the peace?

That's right. I'm from the town of Luodian.

Commander Tan's army stayed there for a few months

and paid their rent on time.

They never took advantage of us.

There were so many Commanders in Shanghai.

But only the Tan Army paid their rent on time.

I believe them!

We believe them! We believe them!

We believe them! We believe them! We believe them!

We believe them! We believe them!

If Commander Tan is willing to restrain his men, then we will…

- Then we will leave. - Let's leave.

Let's go. Let's go. Go.

Let's go. Come on. Let's go.

- So we'll leave? - Yeah. Let's go.

Go. Let's go.

Let's go. Let's leave.

What the hell is going on?

- Let's go. Go. - What the hell?

Go.

Thank you for your hard work. Please come with me.

Come.

Go.

Commander Tan, you are good at buying people.

Please. I just did what I had to do.

The whole concession

will greatly appreciate your kindness.

As for Miss Mu's kidnapping case,

we still have to find the culprit

to keep everyone calm.

Executive Director, rest assured.

Within three days, we will catch the criminal.

Governor Xu,

what do you think?

Since you are so confident,

I'll wait for your result.

I am your student.

Of course, I'm confident.

What? Tan Xuanlin is going to check the pawnshop?

How did he know that?

I heard that someone leaked the news

so Miss Mu knew it was someone from a pawnshop.

But she didn't know which pawnshop it was.

Idiots.

Aren't they just giving themselves away?

Fortunately, we didn't leave anyone alive.

Tan Xuanlin won't find us so soon.

About the stuff…

Did you clean everything up?

All uniforms and guns have been destroyed.

There's nothing in the pawnshop.

Even if they come to check, they wouldn't be able to find anything.

Good. You may leave.

[Baoli Pawnshop]

[TIME]

Who's this?

Take him away.

Move.

[Evil spirit, be safe and sound for all four seasons]

Mr. Min.

The militia caught a thief at Baoli Pawnshop.

But I didn't expect to catch the boss.

Mr. Min, are you stealing from yourself?

Or do you have other motives?

Commander Tan,

I'm sure this must be a mistake.

This is my own store.

Is it illegal... if I go through the window or the door?

Of course not.

Well. Tell me.

Why haven't you been open for two days?

I've not been in the mood these days,

and don't want to run a business.

Is it because your business is failing?

Or was there a heavy price to pay for kidnapping someone?

Mr. Min, it seems you had a bad year.

Commander Tan, what are you talking about?

I don't understand.

You brought me in for stealing,

and now I've made everything clear to you.

I think I can leave now.

Not yet, I'm afraid.

That man of yours has confessed.

You're a businessman.

Why would you drug Miss Mu?

Do you have a feud with the Mu Family?

Commander Tan,

words from a Shanghai street punk…

Do you believe the slander

a hooligan says?

Of course not.

Mr. Min, then tell me.

Why did you sneak into the pawnshop that night?

Commander Tan,

I'm not your criminal.

I prefer not to answer your question.

Of course.

Then tell me.

Why did you burn this picture?

And who is this child?

It seems this child means a lot to you.

All right.

Since you don't want to tell me,

I'll use another method to get you to talk.

A gun is part of being a soldier.

I advise you to load the bullet when you can.

Min Dacheng.

Who exactly are you?

You won't let go of me.

I'm also not in the mood to conduct business either.

It's pretty quiet here.

♪ Su San left Hongdong County ♪

♪ came to the street ♪

Luckily, we used a fake photo.

The old bastard.

I want you to look into his family situation...

and see if the child is his.

Family situation?

Normally speaking, businessmen are timid,

especially when they have children.

As fearless as he is,

I think he's a bit unique.

He really isn't afraid of death.

Have his men been interrogated yet?

Yes. A few of them.

They all said the military governor's mansion ordered Min Dacheng

to catch Mr. Mu and frame us.

The purpose was to arouse discontent in the concession

and to disband our militia.

Sure enough, it's the old guy who did it.

But why did he want to kill Wanqing?

They said it was an accident. They got the wrong person.

Impossible!

Take the kidnappers at the dock,

they were clearly aiming at Wanqing.

What accident?

You're right.

If they did kidnap the wrong person,

why would they want to kill her?

By the way, I searched Baoli Pawnshop and found nothing.

I think they destroyed everything.

But I discovered this.

- What's this? - I found it in the Buddhist shrine.

I think it's a little weird. It's like some kind of scripture, so I brought it back.

It's a little old.

[Shanghai St. John Hospital]

Father, I'm fine now.

I'm sorry to have troubled you.

It's easy for you to say that.

You got lucky this time and survived.

I'm sorry that I worried you.

Look at you, son.

You were a senior graduate at the Baoding Military Academy,

and you have also fought in many battles.

How did a few gangsters get a hit on you?

Don't you feel ashamed?

I was careless.

At that time, I heard a gunshot on Commander Tan's side

and ignored my back.

My son. You should be careful of everything in the future.

If anything happened to you,

I really won't be able to live.

Forget it.

You've just had surgery and need rest.

How about going back home with me?

I think I'd better stay in Shanghai.

There's a lot of work to be done at the Command.

Provincial Military Governor, the doctor said the journey wouldn't be good for him.

You'd better let him rest in the hospital. And you have me here.

About the kidnapping… The Tan Army is still suspect.

Now Tan Xuanlin concluded there was another criminal,

and he also promised the Municipal Council to find the truth in three days.

Maybe it's good if you stay here, and see if he keeps his promise.

If he fails to do it, it won't be over.

Fine, you can stay.

I have an appointment with the Vice Transportation Secretary

and will go back to Yue City soon.

I won't be able to stay here with you.

Xu Cheng, take good care of your friend.

Of course. Please leave him to me.

[Be quiet]

Provincial Military Governor.

Commander Tan, I have to go back to Yue City.

You'll handle the kidnapping case.

Remember, you promised me. Find the truth within three days.

I'm telling you. I want evidence.

Governor, please do not worry. I'll give you a satisfactory result.

Guangyao is concerned about his business and refuses to go back to Yue City with me.

You have to send more men to keep him safe.

Don't worry. As long as I am here, Brother Guangyao will not have any problems.

Okay.

Remember. Don't forget what you said to me.

Yes.

Your promise was too hastily made.

Are you sure you can keep it?

I'm confident but... not entirely sure.

If you fail, what are you going to do?

I call this fearlessness and daring to face danger.

Come on, Junior Marshal.

You clearly took the bullet for Miss Mu.

Why didn't you tell him?

It's obvious you were sacrificing yourself to protect her,

but instead, it became that you are incompetent.

I feel bad for you.

I can't let my father know

that I took the bullet for Miss Mu,

and you can't tell anyone.

Why?

If my father finds out that

his son took a bullet

for a woman and almost died,

how do you think he will react?

Provincial Military Governor, why did you send Tan Xuanlin to investigate the pawnshops?

What if Min Dacheng exposes this matter?

What should we do, then?

I believe Min Dacheng would rather die than say a word.

Even if he doesn't think for himself, he must think for his family.

Family? His family is also in Yue City?

Why don't I remember?

Are we almost at the railway station?

Yes, we're almost there.

Are you still uncomfortable?

I feel better.

Did you know?

When I was in surgery,

in my dream, you told me... not to leave you.

So...

it's you who saved me.

If Miss Wanqing had that competence,

we wouldn't have had to worry last night.

Commander Tan, we got Miss Mu here.

You are busy with military affairs, so you can go back to the Command.

No way. I promised your military governor that I would ensure the safety of his son.

Miss Mu is weak.

If I'm not here, you'll all just wait for death to come.

In that case, are the soldiers outside just for show?

Only at critical moments should Commander Tan involve himself.

What nonsense.

Supervisor Xu and I are good brothers. I will only feel at ease when I'm here.

Fetch the water and stop complaining.

During this time, the family should always stay with the patient and take care of him.

I'm family. You can tell me.

I'm family. Tell me what to do.

You should keep an eye out and notify us if there are any changes to his condition.

Okay. I understand.

I'm a member of his family.

Here.

Don't move. Wait!

Come on. Step aside.

Let me take care of it.

It's hot. How would you be able to feed him?

Brother Guangyao, open your mouth. Here you go.

Commander Tan, the deadline is tight for this case.

You'd better go first.

I asked Tan Si and Old Fu to look into it.

Taking care of Brother Guangyao is more important.

I can't leave him to you.

Come on. Here.

Commander Tan, I can do it myself.

Thank you. I'll do it myself.

Okay.

Did you see that? Supervisor Xu said he could do it.

You do not need to feed him.

Commander Tan, if you have something else to do, you can leave now.

No way.

I don't feel good leaving you with her.

I'll only feel better if I can take care of you myself.

Come on. You can lean on it.

Get up.

Sorry. Sorry.

I'm sorry.

[Jin Casino]

Damn you! You have no money to play? [Gamble]

Don't let me see you next time. Go away!

[Jin Casino]

I've had bad luck lately!

You'll know my power in a few days!

Good dogs don't block the way, you know?

I don't have time to play with you now.

Get out of the way.

Do you want to start a fight? Come on!

Boss said this guy once insulted Miss Mu

and was sent to jail for it.

So he held a grudge and kidnapped Miss Mu

with a few men from the militia for ransom.

Good. Let's find a warehouse

and burn this guy with the militia's uniforms and guns together.

Let's make it seem like he killed himself by accident while destroying the stolen goods.

Then the boss and our men will be safe.

- Let's do it. Cheers! - Cheers!

- Go after him! - Take a look.

- Boss. - Here.

Help!

- I am a relative of the Mu Family. Someone is going to kill me! - Watch out!

That's them! That's them! Stop! Come here!

Thank you. Take me to the Mu Mansion. Please.

- Don't worry. - Thank you.

[The Guardroom] - Hey. Brother. - Go.

- Don't try to trick us. - Are you guys mistaken?

- Hurry up! - I'm related to Mrs. Mu.

I want to see Commander Tan!

Brother. [Monitoring Room]

- I need to see Commander Tan. - Move.

This is a mistake.

- Stop moving. - I want to see Commander Tan.

Go inside!

This is a mistake! Hey! I want to see Commander Tan.

This is a mistake! I want to see Commander Tan.

I want to see Commander Tan.

I want to see Commander Tan!

Come back! This is a mistake!

I am a relative of the Mu Family!

I want to see Commander Tan!

Who did I offend?

I want to see Commander Tan!

Is anyone there?

Help! Help! Help!

Help!

Help!

Let's wipe your face.

Let me wipe it.

Let me do it.

You can't do it well.

Let me do it.

Look.

How could she take care of you?

Come on. Brother Guangyao, here we go.

Commander Tan, I can do it myself.

Look. He doesn't need your help.

You.

Young Uncle.

Shuang'er, what are you doing here?

I came to see Supervisor Xu.

I made some soup for him. It's good for the blood.

Look at our superstar. She knows how to take care of people.

Of course. I've been making it all afternoon.

Here, Supervisor Xu.

Give it to me.

- Have some. - Young Uncle, have some too.

- You lost so much blood. - Okay.

Have it while it's hot.

Wait. Come on.

Let me do it. There you go. Okay?

I didn't run out of blood. I'm afraid you'll get a nosebleed later.

That's right, Miss Mu. Normal people can't have my soup.

Try it and tell me how it is.

- Open your mouth. - Commander.

Old Fu is here. He said he had something important to tell you.

Here. Drink it yourself.

Let's go.

- Drink the soup. - The soup…

Well, please enjoy it.

That Mr. Cui said someone tried to kill him?

Yes. He escaped from the place where he was being held.

He happened to run into our patrol.

He said he knew what you were interested in,

so he wanted to see you in person.

He's trying to make a deal with me.

Keep him alive.

How's your investigation with Min Dacheng going?

Commander, you're right. He was indeed a soldier.

And he was also Provincial Military Governor Luo's assistant.

Ten years ago, he suddenly quit and came to Shanghai to open a pawnshop.

Many of his men have criminal records.

But somehow the police station let him go.

He used to be an assistant to Military Governor Luo?

He was also somebody back then.

So what do you want to do next?

Let's meet him.

Brother Guangyao, there are matters I need to take care of, so I need to go back to the Command.

Go ahead, Commander Tan. I have Wanqing here.

So I don't need to trouble you.

Well. Doesn't Miss Mu need to get back to her business or something?

I've got a desk job so there's nothing to do.

Moreover, it's good to have Wanqing here.

She can keep me company.

Well...

Shuang'er, come out for a second.

[Be Quiet]

Young Uncle, you don't need to thank me. I happen to be free today.

Wonderful. I wanted you to come out to ask you to stay here.

Why would I stay and be the third wheel?

That's right, be the third wheel.

I am worried about the two of them being alone in the same room.

So you have to keep an eye on them for me.

Miss Mu is the personal secretary of Supervisor Xu.

Of course, she should stay and take care of him.

What are you worried about?

I think you're overreacting.

You don't listen to me, do you?

Of course not.

What do you want me to keep an eye on?

How about this?

If Supervisor Xu has any requests, you should help him.

If you can't, you can ask the nurse to help.

You can't leave them alone anyway. Do you understand?

- What do you smell? - What is that smell? It stinks.

Well? What's that smell?

A smell of jealousy.

Watch them.

I can't wait for them to fall in love.

You won't see her for a while so you're afraid she'll be taken.

Wanqing, do you think Commander Tan is acting strange?

What do you mean?

He doesn't seem to want you to stay and take care of me.

That's who he is.

He just wants me to go back to the Command and keep working.

Don't worry.

Okay.

Why are you dawdling here? [Shanghai St. John Hospital]

Just wait a bit longer.

The one who should come out hasn't come out yet.

Didn't Miss Gu go in already?

How do you know Tan Xuanlin is coming out?

His men came in a hurry just now.

And the car was parked outside the door, not in the parking lot.

That meant he'd be out soon.

Hiding from him isn't your style.

You don't know me.

This is called taking them by surprise.

Hello?

Is this St. John Hospital?

[Dormitory Three]

Hello. I'm looking for Miss Gu Yueshuang

in Supervisor Xu Guangyao's ward.

Tell her Commander Tan needs to speak to her.

Miss Gu, you can go back.

I'm here to take care of Brother Guangyao.

It's okay. Young Uncle asked me to stay here.

He won't be happy if he doesn't see me when he gets back.

Miss Gu, your childhood sweetheart relationship with Commander Tan

is really enviable.

In fact, all these years, he has been fighting outside.

We spent more time apart than together.

That's why I cling to him whenever we meet. He's clingy as well.

It's unlike you and Miss Mu here who can be together all day.

That's really enviable.

Right?

Miss Gu Yueshuang, you have a call from Commander Tan.

Look! It's only been a few minutes. He can't be alone without me for even a moment.

What is it, Young Uncle?

[Nurse Station] Why did he hang up?

Since Sister Shuang answered my call, it means Second Brother is not there.

As long as Sister Shuang is there, then Junior Marshal Su will be there, too.

If he is there, he must have brought Junior Marshal Pei there as well.

My reasoning skills are flawless.

[Defense Command of Shanghai]

By the way, where did you keep Cui Jie?

He is in the guardroom.

Oh no. Let's go!

[Monitoring Room]

Min Dacheng, let go of him!

Get off!

Min Dacheng, let him go!

Stop! Let go of him!
