Episode 06

Mr. Chi.

This time,

you owe me a big one.

Nowadays, in Hong Kong,

as a goodwill ambassador

and President of Peace-Keeping Association,

you should

make an effort for Hong Kong's safety.

Now the biggest hindrance for imperial troops in Hong Kong

is Xinghe Society.

See those dead criminals on the stage?

Half of the them

used to work for Blue Panther of Xinghe Society.

I'm thinking

if Mr. Chi, you can take over this society,

then can you promise me

that nothing like this will happen afterwards?

I'll try by best.

And that woman president,

you should teach her well.

General Sato.

Where's President Jin?

I've sent some guys to escort her to Dock 17.

See you.

What's the rush?

General Sato.

Now that I've promised to be a goodwill ambassador,

I'll surely do this job well.

A promise is a promise.

See you.

With Blue Panther's help,

we captured a group of men from Xinghe Society

that attacked the ambulance.

I want them

to be punished in stead of Jin Xiang

on the new year's celebration gathering.

What do you think, General?

Fine then.

Fine then.

This crazy woman

is no important criminal at all.

But she's an unexpected surprise.

She's connected to so many important figures,

like Chi Cheng,

and Xinghe Society itself.

When I just arrived at Hong Kong,

I've met him in Big World.

He's holding too many secrets.

We need time

to get to know him little by little.

I have an idea

to turn this surprise

into a president and give it to you, General.

What do you mean?

If we want to build a prosperous Hong Kong,

we must have weapons at hands.

Now that Jin Xiang is so close to Chi Cheng,

then it's a good chance for us to kill two birds with one stone.

Brilliant.

Brilliant.

Jin Xiang!

If I could forget what's in my sight

I won't be troubled by longing each night

It's alright.

It's alright.

I'll take you home.

Those days I coud not override

Thank you.

Thank you for saving me.

Silly.

Promise me

not to do anything that worries me, okay?

I thought I would die.

I thought I would never see you again.

I love you.

Chi Cheng, I love you.

I love you.

Brother.

This is the room for He Ying.

Ye Chong isn't here at the moment.

Good.

Then I'll go meet my old friend.

Ward No.15

Miyamoto.

You must be in the wrong place.

Really?

I'm just here to visit He Ying.

She's our key to lure out the Communists after all.

Protecting her is part of my duty.

What's wrong with that?

Such a key figure

almost died in the hands of your action squad.

Now you're standing here without a scratch.

You should know that's your dumb luck, right?

Exactly.

I need to make up for my mistake.

Listen carefully.

From now on,

guard this door.

No in or out without my permission.

Yes.

I know clearly what you're thinking.

I'm telling you.

Anything concerns He Ying will be managed by me.

No one else can interfere.

Particularly you.

Now that she's already living in my house.

Then she's one of my family.

Before I think of a way to use her,

you'd better not even approach her.

Otherwise,

I won't let you go easily.

You should know it well.

I never fail my words.

Officer.

We'd better leave now.

Seems like that girl is pretty important to you.

Get up and eat.

I know you're awake.

Now you should eat a bland diet.

Listen.

I don't need your hypocrisy.

Aren't you planning to use me?

Use me...

to kill more Communists.

In your dreams.

And saving me

doesn't mean

you'll win my gratitude.

You'd better

kill me today.

If you don't kill me,

some day

I'll kill you

to avenge for my brother.

You want to kill me

with such a weak body?

You can't even step on an ant.

You should listen to my words and eat this.

I'll tell someone

to cleanup the mess you made.

Nice pocket watch.

Don't tell me that's a token of love from some girl.

I didn't expect Major Miyamoto

would be interested in gossiping.

I thought you were only interested in killing.

Come in.

General Sato.

It's rare to see you two come in and out together.

What do you want to tell me?

Let's sit and talk.

How's He Ying now?

Her condition is stable for now.

But she was seriously injured.

Doctor said she need some good rest,

or her life will be in danger.

That's some hard work, Major Ye.

On the one hand, you need to take care of He Ying.

On the other hand, you have the work in the office.

You must be so occupied.

I just don't understand

why you would make such an effort for her.

Is that really for catching Communists

or there's something else?

Miyamoto.

You're right, Miyamoto.

I do have my own plan.

I'm afraid your ambition

would lead you to another mistake as before.

Major Ye is correct.

You two are my most trusted assistants.

Don't fight over a Communist.

General Sato.

More and more citizens can't get enough food.

Can we use a part of our military ration

to help them out?

I'm afraid if it keeps that way,

there will be a riot.

What do you mean, Major Ye?

You think our military guards are incapable

or are you so timid to face it?

Even if there's a riot,

our military guards can pacify it.

There's an old Chinese saying,

'It's easy to conquer a territory

but hard to guard it.'

Miyamoto, you're so quick-tempered.

I'm sure you can't grasp the meaning behind it.

Here's the thing.

Ye Chong.

Our military ration is also limited.

We can't give a portion to others.

How about this?

You two come with me to the joint-stock company.

Maybe we can find a solution there.

And this time,

you have to go.

Ye Chong.

Lin Xiaozhuang Ye Chong's adopted brother Vice President of South Manchuria Joint-Stock Company Hong Kong Branch

Ye Chong.

You and Xiaozhuang haven't met for a long time, right?

I'll leave the food shortage to you.

If I could forget what's in my sight

I won't be troubled by longing each night

Are you alright?

He can hit you, but you can't hit him.

Dad, I'm fine.

Those days I coud not override

We miss each other for the rest of our life

Our memories back then will never die

As if a surprise that made us arride

Just one case?

In this home,

what else belongs to me?

Don't be sad.

Leaving here

is not necessarily bad for me.

Wait for me in Shanghai.

Okay.

See you in Shanghai.

Day after day, night after night

Memories replay in the dream of mine

He asked me to bring this to you.

He didn't break his promise.

Here.

I'll give you a toast.

And I need to say

thank you.

Chong.

You're my brother.

No need to thank me.

We can finally fight together.

For so many years,

our life track

are overlapped.

From Japan to China,

and then we both became Santalum's comrades.

I think

nothing can separate us once more.

Here.

Good brother.

Officer.

What would you like to order?

No need. No need.

It's getting late.

They don't like to see us being together.

About the food,

please help me find a solution.

I know.

As for our identity,

on either side,

we're alone without backup.

You have to be vigilant

for the trap behind your back.

Chong.

We won't always be alone.

Our silence will only be temporarily.

When the time comes, the party will find us.

I believe you.

Have some water, please.

Okay.

Master will be here.

Liu.

A big fish took the bait.

Dongjiang Column Division

captured a traitor.

We got an important message from him.

Look.

HK is calling.

HK?

Seems like a code name.

I remember Mr. He once talked about this person.

He's been doing espionage in Hong Kong

for several years,

He's extremely vigilant.

I guess he's looking for us.

Or he won't leave such a risky proof.

Liu, where's the man you captured?

I want to meet him.

He died during the arrest.

We only find this from him.

Anyway,

this is a good news.

I'll try to contact the Party.

If these comrades are rescued,

tell them to leave Hong Kong right away.

We need a radio station at the moment.

The water and land are under Japanese's close watch.

Party superior

can't send us a radio station.

I'll manage that.

And we also need a telegraph operator.

I'll do that.

Now I understand why

Mr. He chose you.

Chi's Antique Shop

OPEN

Hong Kong is calling. Hong Kong is calling.

You're still weak.

Don't walk around.

Hurry and eat this.

Or it will become cold.

I don't eat your food.

Do you know

how many people don't even have this?

The food you knocked over

can feed a family for a week.

This is all because of you Japanese.

If you're unhappy,

you can knock it over.

But listen,

no matter how much you waste,

I'll keep preparing food for you.

So many people are starving now.

Think it carefully.

Hong Kong is calling. Hong Kong is calling. Yan'an copy. Yan'an copy. Autumn Cicada died. HK showed up. Ask for instruction. Contact HK. Take care. We're with you.

Your contact is

a survivor of Hong Kong Communist underground,

Cormorant.

He gained contact with the Party yesterday.

The month after knowing Santalum was killed,

Ye Chong was on the edge of despair.

But now Xiaozhuang showed up,

like a beam of light

that brightened Ye Chong's world of darkness.

Master. How's it?

Good news.

The Party replied.

That's great.

But the Party wanted us to find HK.

Other than knowing HK exists,

we know nothing else about him.

Anything special about this note?

Smell it.

Chinese medicine?

This note was soaked in liquid medicine.

This is the trace HK left us.

I'll ask Dongjiang Column Division for help.

Get prescriptions from all hospitals of Hong Kong.

Then we can find a man

that has a similar handwriting with this one.

Not just hospitals.

We also need to check drug stores.

There are so many drug stores and hospitals in Hong Kong.

The workload is huge.

Even for a needle in the haystack,

we need to give it a try.

Master.

It's extremely difficult for us to find

in such a short period of time.

Wei.

Every second we're wasting

is so valuable to our comrades now in danger.

I know that they're suffering from an abyss of misery.

I know.

The four of you,

head to hospitals in four directions.

You must get a prescription from each hospital.

We'll meet here by sunset.

Yes. Yes.

Go then.

You two come with me.

Okay.

Good timing.

Just the right temperature.

I never depend on pure luck.

When your car arrived there,

I saw you.

Your detecting ability is getting better.

Great.

I've met something.

Help me analyze it with your detecting ability.

Days ago,

I received a call.

When I picked it up,

no matter what I asked,

the caller remained silent.

After a minute,

it was hung up.

I thought it was a mischief.

or a coincidence at first.

But later,

another called came.

The caller didn't speak for a minute,

and then hung it up.

Do you think this method resembles

someone we know?

Santalum

- Thank you. - Please enjoy.

Okay.

Chong.

Do you think it is possible?

It's not likely.

I can be sure of that.

I also know it's not likely.

But this method of contacting

reminds me of some old stories.

But even if it's not him,

it must be one of our Party.

Maybe

he's the one that comes to launch me.

Otherwise, he can't get to know

my exact contact details.

It's very likely.

This contacting technique

is only known to Santalum and the rest of us.

If it is leaked

and known to the Japanese,

Miyamoto for example,

you would be taken to the interrogation room already,

he wouldn't test you with that

and tolerate you sitting here.

I agree with you.

But this man is so mysterious.

I don't have any trace to follow.

I can only wait for his next call,

but it never comes.

Just when I almost lost my hope,

he gave me a surprise.

Chinese cuisine is so delicious.

It's good, right?

Then we can come again.

Okay.

I'll part you from here.

Okay.

Take care.

Sir. Sir.

This is the key to your room.

I didn't book a room.

A guest from a VIP room left this for you.

I don't know anything else.

Shiban Street

Stop there.

Sir. How can I help you?

Sorry. My bad.

It's alright.

A smart guy.

Shiban Street is the most jumbled place in Hong Kong.

The street was crowded all the time.

Even with Hong Kong's sluggish economy,

it's always so crowded there.

To meet in this place,

he'll have so many spots to hide and observe.

That's right.

I've walked back and forth on that street,

and observed carefully the crowd come and go.

Until the night fell,

I found no one suspicious.

Then I met a colleague from the company.

I don't want him to doubt me,

so I left with him.

You shouldn't have gone there.

You're with a special identity.

Added that you're close to me,

do you know how many people are watching you?

I know.

But even for the slightest chance,

I don't want to give it up.

What if he's one of us?

Then we can get contact with the Party.

I understand your feeling.

But the Japanese are everywhere.

Giving out any trace or clue

will put your life in danger.

At time like this,

protecting ourselves is protecting the rest of us.

You're right.

I was impulsive.

How about the number?

Did you write it down?

Yeah, I did.

But the two calls used different numbers.

Okay.

You should go back.

I'll look into this in secret.

But you should remember,

if anything happens,

tell me right away.

Don't act so rashly.

I know.

Blue Panther?

Stop the car.

Are you sure it's him?

He dares to show up in Hong Kong?

This traitor of Xinghe Society.

I can recognize him from ashes.

I'll go clean it up.

Jin Xiang.

Jin Xiang!

What are the odds?

Good to see you here, President Chi.

Seems like we're at the right place and the right time.

Oh, I forgot to thank you for that favor.

You're welcome.

I have my own consideration.

Who are you?

A person that can kill you at any time,

but also wants to spare your life.

Who exactly are you?

I'm Chief of BIS Hong Kong Branch,

Tao Zongbo.

BIS?

Chief Tao.

I have no grudges against BIS,

why do you come to me?

I've told you

I want to give you a chance to live.

Tao Zongbo Chief of Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (BIS) Hong Kong Branch

You've seen what I'm like now.

Without a home, without nothing.

If you want to get anything from me,

I'm afraid I'll let you down.

Of course I know your situation.

You're like fish meat on a chopping board.

Whoever catches you

will eat you alive.

Then why do you come to me?

I believe you're a capable man.

I want you to do something for me.

You want me to help you kill someone?

I'm not as simple as you thought.

If I want a killing machine,

I won't come to you.

Then what do you want me for?

Chi Cheng.

Chi Cheng.

I lost the trace.

Did you see any trace?

Major Ye is here, you haven't greeted him.

Mr. Chi, are you looking for someone?

I might be able to help.

No.

President Jin lost a pet.

I'm helping her to find it.

What are you doing here?
