What is this?

Our operation requires his assistance.

He is not police personnel. He cannot assist.

I want to give Jiejie hypnotic suggestions.

Use him to lure out the organization with Du She and Leonard at its head.

Hypnosis is not permitted.

When you were young you were already stubborn, and now you've turned into a stick in the mud.

The difficulty level of this hypnosis is extremely high. I can't do it on my own.

I understand that our operation violates regulations as laid out by the upper echelon.

But this is a matter of utmost importance. Our opponent are still using innocent children in their experiments.

If we can solve the case one day sooner, we can rescue those innocent victims one day sooner.

You're the team leader of SCI. What do you think?

I have faith in Zhan Yao's judgement.

He is choosing to do this, so he must have his reasons.

If the higher-ups start asking questions, just tell them that the head of SCI acted without permission.

And violated regulations. I will take full responsibility.

And if by some chance, this action causes harm that cannot be predicted, what will you do?

Do you not have faith in my abilities?

No, I asked because I have too much faith in you.

Bao Sir. I will keep an eye on him throughout the entire process.

If anything goes wrong I will stop the hypnosis immediately.

That's impossible.

Not to mention that hypnosis is not permitted by law.

If hypnosis is out of the question, is having a heart-to-heart out of the question too?

I have to call someone here first..

Who, Bai Sir?

Your dad.

Episode 24 (Season 1 Finale)

What do you think those old farts are getting up to in there?

Everyone says that the police bureau's "Black and White Fiends" all those years ago were your dad and Chief Bao.

But in truth there was one more:

Zhao Jue.

Otherwise, knowing the way Chief Bao is,

If Zhao Jue really is so evil beyond redemption, how can they still get along so peacefully?

Relax, Bao Heizi. The children left already.

You've got a lot of nerve. Do you really think I wouldn't dare arrest you?

Arresting me is meaningless.

To me... Inside, outside, are prisons all the same.

Not coming to see you over all those years ...

It was wrong of us.

That's alright. Aren't we meeting each other now?

There's Qitian too. I'm very much looking forward to seeing him again.

In all these years... Has he thought about me at all?

Don't think that just because I accepted Zhan Yao's suggestion and let you help us means that you're innocent.

Oh, I'm guilty.

But hypnosis is innocent.

You people put me away for 20 years.

You used 20 years worth of time to prove the significance of psychology in criminal investigation.

Don't you think every single one of you ...

Owe me an apology?

In your dreams.

Bao Heizi.

This song ... is a good choice.

You will perform this hypnosis. I will assist.

You're not worried that I'm up to something?

I'm worried. Of course I'm worried.

But this is a decision Bai Sir and I came to after much careful consideration.

I have no idea how capable you are.

So I'd like to see if you're as incredible as all those people claim you are.

Also I know that since you're willing to help you must have your own objective.

But if it's only to help Leonard and his organisation compete for territory,

it's not really that much of a problem.

Then you're not afraid that I could be working for Taber?

I'm sure you wouldn't help Taber.

Because that man has no class.

Helping him doesn't seem like your style.

Taking shortcuts will always have a cost.

But looking at the current situation, saving people

and keeping the current situation from developing is far more important.

Maybe you people are indeed stronger than our generation.

What did you say?

It's nothing.

I really am helping Leonard.

Because he can extend to me a very big favour.

Let me ask you a question.

What is the connection between you and my dad?

Good day uncle Zhan.

Dad.

You haven't changed one bit. Especially this face of yours.

Go outside for a moment. I have something to talk about with my son.

Fine.

Have your father-son ... Talk.

Dad. You and Zhao Jue ...

What's the connection between you?

We've worked together before, we got along fine.

Then do you think that ...

He's a bad person?

What do you think?

Don't look into what happened 20 years ago anymore.

Some things are best left in the past.

But he -

If you must investigate the past, I will forbid you and Bai Yutong from seeing each other.

That's everything I have to say. Consider the matter on your own.

After this hypnosis is over, do not become at all involved with Zhao Jue anymore.

As for the hypnosis, I will not be joining you.

You're the one who invited him here.

If anything goes wrong, take full responsibility for the consequences yourself.

What did your dad say?

Take responsibility for the consequences.

I believe you know what my dad said.

You plan on giving up.

I'm hardly giving up.

For the moment there are far more important matters to attend to.

Qitian ... spends too much time thinking the sky will fall.

When it comes to certain things, I have a sense of propriety.

Can we begin now?

We can begin at any time.

Bai Sir. The two of you should leave.

And it's best if you turn off the surveillance system as well.

This process ... I don't want anyone to see it.

If you stay here, there's a high possibility of getting hypnotised along with him.

Hyp-hypnotised?

Yes ... and after being hypnotised,

Your speech will no longer be under your control.

You could end up saying a bunch of nonsensical things:

Confess your love to the person you like, or maybe take off your clothes in public and such.

Don't worry, Bai Sir. Go on. Outside.

Yes sir.

You be careful.

Child ... In these toys ...

Which one of them do you like?

Look around. Is there one you like?

Is it this one? Have a closer look. Is this it?

Is this it?

This must be it.

This must be it.

Am I right? Am I right? Am I right?

Is this it? Is this it?

Is this it? Is this it?

This must be it.

This must be the one. (repeated)

This is certainly the one. (repeated)

This is it.

This is certainly it.

This must be the one.

This is certainly it. (repeated)

This must be the one.

Must be.

This is certainly the one.

This is certainly the one.

How did it go?

And Zhao Jue?

Let him rest for a while.

Big brother ... do you think that they would ...

Don't talk nonsense.

Mr. Zhao.

Are you thirsty?

Have some water.

Thank you. Sit.

Okay.

I had no idea that hypnosis is so exhausting.

Well I think you shouldn't do it so often from now on.

And look, you're so thin, you must not be eating properly.

Can you cook?

I can do some simple home cooking.

Actually ... actually I ... I think ...

If you have time ... You should go see Zhao Zhen.

Afterall, you two are uncle and nephew.

When you do come visit, I can make something for the both of you.

You live with Zhen?

I do, because he helped me out before, and insisted on my living with him ...

So I went to take care of him.

Do look after him. Zhen is a remarkable person.

I have to leave soon. It may be a long time before I see you again.

You take care of yourself now.

What is it?

He seems to know the details of the experiments performed on the bearded man and the other children.

Logically speaking, it would make more sense for outsiders not to know about these things.

Here's what I think -

Right now, what's in front of our eyes is more important.

First of all, let's deploy the operation without delay.

Everything else, we can talk about after.

I didn't go looking for you. You're the one who came looking for me.

Just get in the car.

You still don't want to give up?

So much has already been lost. It's still not enough?

Far from enough.

Look at me.

I'm the same as I ever was.

Time has no meaning to me at all.

Once it begins, it can never stop again.

Great. I got it.

He's gone.

What do you think he actually hopes to accomplish by coming back this time?

Let him do what he wants.

But if those two kids are hurt, I'll never let him get away with it.

The tracking device has been implanted into Jiejie's body.

Tracking device positioning complete.

Our upcoming operation is extremely dangerous. Everyone must be careful.

Make sure to put on a good show, but safety is even more important. Got it?

Yes sir!

Let's move out!

They're here.

Bai sir, they're here. But the car is really small.

That one's only in charge of giving Jiejie the signal. They won't take action directly.

You can start driving towards a less populated area.

Ma Han, stand by. Wait for my signal.

Got it.

Yes sir.

Wang Shao!

This guy's gone mad!

You guys alright?

Answer me! Anyone there?

Zhao Fu. Zhao Fu!

Wang Shao! Zhao Fu!

Damn, that hurts.

Bai Sir.

We're fine.

Bai Sir. The car that took Jiejie is driving towards the northern suburbs.

The north is Wu Qiang's territory.

If they want to conduct this kind of an experiment, a certain amount of space is necessary.

Leonard and his organisation must have some power here.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be taking such substantial action.

I thought it was Chen Jie at first.

But from the look of things now, Chen Jie was only one among many.

But ... but Wu Qiang is already dead.

Do you still remember Wu Qiang's wife?

The one named Qin Meng?

Correct.

Speaking of which, it's someone in the underworld that died.

That she called the cops in a hurry, was a rather odd thing to do.

And ... those underlings of Wu Qiang were all extremely deferential to Qin Meng.

Would ordinary underlings respect the sister-in-law to that level?

Unless he was done in by someone close to him ...

If so, then it all makes sense.

Killing the other leaders was for the sake of territory;

Killing Wu Qiang was to imitate the Shadow Killer's serial killings.

Killing Chen Jie on the other hand was to keep her quiet.

If Yangyang hadn't exposed Lan Chenglin when he did ... then he would have shifted all the blame onto Luo-dage.

By then, Luo Tian would have become a scapegoat,

Leonard could have taken over the territory, and Du She can continue his experiments as well.

Once Jiejie was no longer a secret, we would be able to find Du She.

That's why they had to kill Chen Jie and take away all of the data.

But what they never expected was that ultimately Chen Jie still left a trail.

Then for what purpose did they rescue Jiejie this time?

They want to run!

On Du She's side, even though they can't be called successes,

they still possess a certain level of combat prowess.

Even if they change locations they can still begin anew.

So this is our last chance.

We must catch them all in the same net.

Sir. They went into a mansion.

The mansion's owner is ... Qin Meng.

Bai Sir. Interpol's people have also arrived.

We're reluctant to get too close. Luo Tian took the networked camera and left.

He says he wants to sneak in.

Don't act blindly without thinking. We'll be there shortly.

Let's go.

Bai Sir. We have confirmed that they're in there right now.

Any movement on their end?

No.

How should we proceed?

Bai Chi. You're familiar with the underground tunnel blueprints, right?

Take a few of the special forces people down with you.

Set an ambush in every passage. Don't leave a single one open.

Yes sir!

Be careful.

We'll leave all the mansion exits to Interpol.

No problem.

You two, take some people and guard every last exit.

Yes sir.

Ma Han, were you able to find some good sniping spots?

I've found a few.

I'll leave that post to you.

Okay.

Jiang Ling. Do we have the visual from Luo Tian?

It's already connected.

Right now we want to hasten the experiments.

Make a few more puppets, and then kill anyone that needs to be killed.

Every target is present. Ma Han, are you ready?

Bai Sir. I'm in position.

Great.

Everyone, get to your positions.

Yes sir.

Bai Sir, I'm in position.

Bai Sir, I've arrived.

Begin!

Leave! Now!

He noticed Luo Tian.

Let's go to the scene.

I'll leave you in command here.

Wait a second. I'll go with you.

Move. Move!

Hurry up. Move it!

Bai Sir! We found all the children.

Where's Luo Tian?

Bai Sir.

Leonard, Du She and Jiejie are gone. And we haven't been able to find Luo Tian either.

They're all gone?

It won't be easy to find them this time.

I'll leave this location to you. Zhan Yao and I will go.

You guys try to follow as soon as you can.

Yes sir.

Come on, let's go.

Jiejie's clothes.

Xiao-Bai. Do you still remember that folk song?

That bastard!

Watch out!

You alright?

I'm fine. It's just a scratch.

Let me wrap it up for you.

Wang Shao. Wang Shao! If you can hear me, say something.

We've found Du She. Secure the perimeter from my position.

Don't move!

Zhan Yao. He can't die yet.

You're not going to actually kill him, are you?

- Bai Sir! - Bai Sir!

None of you come any closer!

There's nowhere left to run.

Is that so?

This is a detonator I'm holding. This place is full of explosives.

People like us...

Won't die that easily.

Unless we're blown to pieces ...

Otherwise we won't die.

Don't you think so?

Then we'll just have to see what's faster: Your hand or my bullet.

Would you make that bet?

I'm a monster, you know.

Even if you put a hole in my head with your guns, I can move all the same.

As long as I blow this place sky high all of you will have to die.

Lao-Bai.

Quick, take them and go. Don't worry about me.

Go now!

There's nowhere to run. I want to die alongside all of you!

We'll die together!

They can't escape. It's our destiny to be together.

We live together. We die together.

Who'd want to live and die with you?

I am a success. You are a defective product.

I have a son. What have you got? Huh?

You lunatic!

Shut up!

You will shut your mouth now!

Leave now!

I'm going to die with you!

We die together!

Bai Sir! Zhan Sir!

I am grateful for the care you have given me in this short time.

Take good care of Yangyang

Go!

Luo Tian -

Go now!

Luo Tian!

Everyone alright?

- I'm fine! - I'm alright.

Luo Tian!

- Find Luo Tian! - Luo Tian!

Luo Tian!

Let's go!

Luo Tian! (repeated)

Where is he?

Lao-Bai, your arm is injured. Go have it bandaged.

First we have to find Yangyang's dad.

It wasn't easy for Yangyang to finally have a dad. We can't let him experience more loss.

Bai Sir! Dr. Zhan! We found him! He's over here!

Luo Tian.

Ambulance! Hurry!

Is everyone okay?

You guys ... Fortunately it looks like your injuries are all superficial.

You should still bandage it.

Yangyang. That's your daddy in there.

Daddy!

Thank you, uncle.

Go on.

Daddy!

Daddy, don't leave me! I don't want to part from you. Daddy!

Leonard hasn't been found yet.

Wang Shao, Zhao Fu, Ma Han, Bai Chi.

Split up and start looking. Go.

Yes sir.

Eh? Where's Gongsun?

Looks like you came out of this unscathed.

It's not all bad in there either. The aestheticization of violence. Everyone's been blown into bits and pieces.

You can't scare me. Let's go.

I'll drive you back to your dissecting room.

Why did you come?

So many people who are important to me are here.

How can I stay away?

And for me, Bai Qingtang, waiting around and doing nothing would be out of character.

You should be grateful.

Why should I be grateful?

You should be grateful ... That I went out of my way to come see you.

To see me? See me do what?

Die heroically for a just cause?

If you die heroically for a just cause, then I'll just have to be your widow.

Then I'm afraid this time I have disappointed you.

Hey, buddy!

Leonard?

Watch out!

Qingtang!

Zhan Yao!

Qingtang, you'll be fine!

Qingtang.

Help! Help!

Big sister! Big sister!

The ambulance. Call an ambulance. Hurry and call an ambulance!

Headquarters! Someone's been injured. Send an ambulance! Hurry!

Leonard. Find me Leonard at once!

Bai Sir! We've found Leonard!

That bastard!

Qingtang!

Qingtang! Wake up, Qingtang!

I'm here. I'm here. I'll never let you go again.

I'll never let you go again!

I'll never let you go again!

Qingtang!

Wake up!

Qingtang!

Bai Sir, over here!

Bai Sir, by the time we found him he was already dead.

We don't know who killed him.

The murder weapon is a key.

Looks like this is far from over.

Qingtang. You're awake.

What is it?

I don't know what's happening.

I just had a very strange dream.

It seemed like I was in a lab.

What I saw was ...

I was still little ...

And it was the scene where I was shot.

Everything was so real.

I also saw ...

The person who shot me.

Who was he?

It wasn't Zhao Jue.

I had no idea that Zhao Jue can paint too.

Is your sister alright?

My sister has Gongsun to take care of her.

If I'm there too I'd just be in the way.

The devil wants to drag a person into hell,

an angel wants to save him,

but is powerless to do so.

But going by the look in his eyes,

maybe he chose to walk into hell on his own.

Whatever you wanted to ask, just ask.

That day ...

Did you really want to kill Du She?

You noticed?

I've shot dead countless people, but only when there were no other alternatives.

If I'd pulled the trigger that day, it would also have been for the lack of alternatives.

Because if he didn't die, then the ones to die would have been us.

Xiao-Bai.

I really don't want anything to happen to you.

Are you blaming me?

I don't blame you.

Because I understand you.

I know your character and your temper.

I know your demeanor and how you conduct yourself in society.

I know you ...

I know you're still that Zhan Yao.

So I don't blame you.

Alright.

Let's head back. We still have to report to Bao Sir.

Cheers! (repeated)

Stop this now!

Are you all quite done?

Bao Sir, is there another new case?

Where would I find you more big cases?

You guys are holding a celebration feast

Why would you not at least let me know?

Invite me too!

Congratulations. You have another new colleague joining you.

There's a change in personnel.

Luo Tian?

He's a good fit for a police officer.

You guys can't bully my daddy!

Your daddy will probably be the one bullying us.

An ending is just a new beginning.

There's a light side to human nature.

And so it also would have a dark side.

Good and evil. White and black.

Every person is a series of contradictions in perpetual conflict.

People are always fearful of facing the darkness inside themselves.

They believe that by shunning darkness, they become stronger.

But in reality ...

Only by accepting darkness can they become even stronger.
