All language subtitles for chasing the undercurrent (18)_track3_[eng]

[English subtitles are available]

Am I really

going to keep using these for the rest of my life?

Don't worry.

If you need more,

you can tell me anytime.

The Zhao family has rules.

No one is allowed to touch any illegal substances.

I'm already grateful

that you're helping me out.

Our group may have acquired

your seafood market.

But I left half of the shares in your name.

You no longer have to do anything from now on.

The dividends will be transferred right into your account.

You're different from the rest of the Zhao family.

Righteous.

Previously, I promised

that

I'd something for you before leaving.

Are you here for that reason?

Tell me

what you want me to do.

I want you to kill someone for me.

[Episode 18]

Why didn't you answer or reply

to my call and messages?

I didn't notice.

Sorry about that.

What's wrong with your leg?

Nothing serious. I twisted it.

Let me see.

I'm all right.

It's all swollen.

I'll be fine after I apply some medicinal ointment.

It's okay.

Come, I'll take you to the hospital.

I said it's okay.

I don't have to go...

I'll be fine after using the cold spray.

Sit for now.

I'll go and get your prescriptions.

Remember to apply the ointment.

[Next menstrual period: Your menstrual period may start within the next 3 days.]

Get some rest after you're done eating.

Let me know if you need anything.

I'll get going now.

This shoe looks pretty neat.

It looks good on you.

I'll get going now.

[The resort is expanding with a new upgrade]

Who are you?

Excuse me, mister.

We're here

for a holiday at this resort.

The resort is now closed for rectification.

It won't be accepting any guests.

Go back now.

When will it reopen again?

You can ask through a call.

Mister,

can't you just let us go inside?

No, I can't.

Just leave now.

Enjoy your meals.

Excuse me.

I want to ask you something.

What is it?

Well,

when will the resort

reopen?

I'm not sure.

The resort has a new owner.

It depends

on what they want to do.

But judging by the situation,

it should be a huge upgrade.

That would be great.

When that time comes, people will flock here.

Your business will definitely boom.

Well, I won't be getting a taste of that.

Why?

I just sold my business

a couple of days ago.

Did you sell it?

But your business is doing well.

Why did you sell it?

I didn't want to.

But

I'm helpless.

I'm not acquainted

with the Zhao family.

Who are the Zhaos?

Don't you know the Zhao family?

You must be

from out of town.

Let me tell you something.

The person who bought the resort

is from the Zhao family.

He's a big shot

in Changwu.

But he's running his resort

and you're running your restaurant.

How are they related?

They are related.

I'm telling you because you don't know this.

The Zhao family never

let any outsiders make profits.

Since

the Zhao family bought off the resort,

they've bought all the businesses in the area

for their close connections.

We were driven out of our livelihoods here.

How is this fair?

Stop talking nonsense.

How is this nonsense?

I'm telling the truth.

It happened just two days ago.

Are you trying to ruin our lives?

What's the point of telling them all these?

Don't you know we have families?

Why are you telling it around?

Just stop talking about it.

What does a woman like you know?

Well, let's just eat.

What brings you here?

Are you feeling better today?

Better, I guess.

I brought soup.

Why did you buy so many things?

You're busy

with your work.

Why are you troubling yourself?

I'll get the bowl.

I can take care of myself.

You bought bread, fruits, crackers...

You bought almost everything.

These are all daily necessities.

See if you still need anything else.

I was planning to do some groceries.

But you already bought everything.

Oh, my.

You're too thorough.

It's within these few days, right?

I saw the notification on your phone yesterday.

Is this pork rib soup with corn?

Your favorite?

Did you make it yourself

or buy it from the shop?

The housekeeper made it.

I'll have a try.

It must be good if she made it.

It's good.

You should have some too.

I already had some.

Stop the car!

Get down!

Get down now!

What's wrong?

Get down.

Why did you drive so fast?

Didn't you hear us telling you to stop?

Sorry, mister.

I didn't hear you because of the music.

You scared me to death.

I don't smoke.

Mister, who are you?

We're the mine's security.

What are you doing here?

Mister,

we're here to do some fishing.

Can you let us through?

We're at the mine.

There's no place to fish here.

That's not possible.

My friend told us

there's a water hole as big as several meters here.

He's right.

He said there are plenty of fish.

We came all the way here.

Can you let us fish?

Fish?

With your hands?

With the fishing rods.

Check the car.

Why are you checking our car?

Mister.

We are really here to fish.

Why are you getting inside the car?

Enough already.

There's no place to fish here.

Don't come here again next time.

Thanks.

I'll send you to the security office if you come again.

Okay.

Let's get out of here.

Stop eating chips.

Have some fruit.

I want milk in my coffee.

Okay.

Here's your coffee.

Thanks.

Apply the hot pack when you have time.

Remember to apply the ointment.

It's harmful to the eyes if you look at the screen too long.

I'll get going now. I'll be back with a nice dinner tonight.

Then

bring

the resignation letter

with you tonight.

[Zhaojiawei Primary School (Campus One)]

On the left.

I'll take a look around.

Be careful.

Hey, you.

Yeah, I'm talking to you.

What are you doing here?

I'm here to pick up my kid from school.

I need to use the washroom out of a sudden.

Say, do you know if there's any public toilet around?

Over there.

Thanks, man.

Wait.

What grade and class

is your kid in?

My daughter just enrolled this year.

She's in Grade 1, Class 3.

Why are you taking so long?

The school will be over in five minutes.

Let's go.

Okay, I'm coming. Thanks.

Let's go.

This is Zhaojiawei's map.

According to our secret observation,

[Zhao's Villa]

this villa is

where Zhao Xiaosheng and Zhao Pengchao are living.

It's also heavily guarded.

With this villa as the center,

there are multiple guard posts

within the range of a one-kilometer radius.

Also, surveillance cameras are everywhere.

No one can't go unnoticed in this area.

Do you know who these guards are?

We've checked their identities through comparisons.

They should be

Four Seas Group's permanent employees.

They have no criminal records.

Peng Duo,

stop your team's mission temporarily.

The Zhao family is heavily guarded.

Our risk of being exposed is too high.

The other two teams' missions

can be carried out as planned.

But remember

not to advance rashly.

We

must make out

the surroundings as much as we can

before

we gradually approach

our target.

Yes, sir.

[Xue Wei]

Yes, Xue Wei.

Chang,

I have bad news for you.

I've looked into it.

The acquisition process of Four Seas Group

is clear

and clean.

There was no coercion involved.

Nothing illegal at all?

Listen.

I even found out

Zhao Pengchao was the one

who took care

of these acquisitions.

Also, they think very highly of him.

They said,

not only does he have real business acumen,

but he's also good at drawing people to his sides.

His EQ is pretty high.

Okay, I got it.

Thanks.

He found nothing

from the investigation on Four Seas Group, right?

Xue Wei said

Zhao Pengchao has been handling

Zhao's business acquisitions recently.

This can prove

Zhao Pengchao's standing in the Zhao family.

It also means Zhao Pengzhan and Zhao Pengxiang

are just their cover-ups.

Zhao Pengchao, who works behind the scene,

is the real successor of the Zhao family.

I knew

there must be something

behind the Four Seas Group's

series of operations.

Zhao Pengchao did

everything too flawlessly.

Every time I make a move,

it seems like I get nothing out of it

despite how hard I try.

You're finally revealing your true feelings.

Something just popped up in my head.

A certain someone said

he'd make a hole out of the Zhao family

even if they were made from a steel plate.

Does it still count?

Of course, it does.

But we need to eat before making a hole in the steel plate.

I'm starving.

I heard

the first case you cracked in Binxi Branch

was the villa burglary and murder case in Binjiang.

At that time, they couldn't believe

a rookie cop like you

could break such a huge case.

You deducted the husband

who killed his wife

from a mineral water bottle.

Who told you that?

I, Jin Yan, never work for anyone blindly.

Since I decided to join your team,

of course, I need to find out every detail about you.

Am I right, Great Detective?

I'm not that great, okay?

Since you brought up that case,

I'll tell you what you don't know.

About the mineral water bottle that people talked about,

at that time, I found tens of thousands

of possible mineral water bottles

and tested them one by one.

I would only need to travel 2,000 km to catch this murderer

if it was in a straight line.

But I went in circles while chasing

the suspect

until I traveled more than 19,000 km

for one year and three months.

You always say I have OCD.

That's right.

But it's all thanks to this OCD.

Without this OCD,

I wouldn't have been able to persist.

It hasn't been long since you joined us.

♫ You look forward to the future ♫

But you've experienced

so many things within this period.

You should realize by now

♫ While I repeat what I do ♫

that at the early stage

of a criminal investigation,

it's all about looking around before moving forward.

♫ In a city full of smog ♫

Why?

For directions,

thoughts,

and experiences.

♫ Someone is existing in silence ♫

But things become different

in the middle and late stages of the investigation.

We could only be tenacious toward the end.

♫ If I disappear ♫

There's no case

that you can solve

at a glance.

♫ Brave the sea of fire for me ♫

We use the most foolish way

to solve criminal cases,

♫ No need to cover up the truth ♫

which is being persistent.

I'm telling you all these

not to brag about how good I am.

♫ As I'll expose it eventually ♫

I just want you to know,

so you won't lose heart

and keep going.

♫ When the flowers bloom in spring ♫

Besides,

I need to keep my spirits up too.

♫ I shall return ♫

Each persistence deserves admiration.

♫ Looking forward to the colorful sky of tomorrow ♫

I also believe

we'll have results as long as we persist.

♫ I never thought of leaving ♫

We'll persist together.

♫ From the very beginning until now ♫

Hang in there, kid.

♫ I'm not afraid of pain ♫

♫ Breaking through my shortcomings ♫

Yes, Fei.

Chang,

I got something.

My guys in Changbei

saw Deng Xiaojun.

It's him all right.

As for his location,

I'll take care of it within two hours.

Okay.

That's great.

I'll wait for your news, then.

What did I tell you?

We'll have results as long as we persist.

We found Deng Xiaojun.

Tell Guangming and Ning Yu

to come back for a meeting.

Yes, sir.

All this while,

we've been looking for Deng Xiaojun's whereabouts

based on three methods.

First,

to investigate his social connections

to see if anyone took him in.

Second, it's the registration

of the hotel's guest information.

The last one is the most troublesome,

which is the rental information.

But we couldn't find anything

after so long.

It seems Deng Xiaojun had disappeared out of thin air.

It's normal if we can't find him.

Think about it.

Deng Xiaojun fled suddenly.

If he's doing it

to hide from people who are trying to harm him,

that means he'll be in hiding for a long time.

So he won't choose

to stay in hotels or guesthouses.

Because it's a long-term behavior,

he won't be able to afford the high cost.

Nor would he seek refuge from anyone he knows

for fear of revealing his whereabouts.

That's right.

Even if he rents a room,

he won't rent rooms

with strict management.

Besides, he may not use his real name.

So since we can't find him through conventional means,

we'll try a different way.

Since the day Deng Xiaojun went missing,

I've already contacted

my pals in Changwu

and several cities around Changwu.

Their main duty was to investigate

the illegal property agent,

group renting,

and urban villages.

These friends are more well-connected

with those in the underworld.

So they can complement

the weak spot of our investigation.

Mentor,

did they find anything?

[Fei, Changbei]

Yes, Fei.

You found it?

Okay.

All right.

No problem.

I'll bring my men over right now.

Okay.

We found Deng Xiaojun.

Guangming, pack up and go to Changbei with me.

Okay.

Wait.

I don't think you should go.

We're investigating

this in secret.

Your target is too important.

I'm sure someone is watching your move.

Sir,

why don't I go with Song?

That'll be fine too.

I'll inform them

and give you the address.

-Okay.
-Let's go.

What is it?

My mentor has sent Fei's contact

to me.

Okay. Find out

when the next ferry

to Changbei is.

Song, Ning Yu, are you heading out?

Yes.

Hey, Xiaoqiang.

Drive safely.

Don't worry.

Be safe.

[Jia Xiaoqiang, Auxiliary Police of Changwu City PSB Binxi Branch]

Changbei?

Illegal property agent, urban village,

and group renting.

He even mobilized the locals to investigate closely.

I must say

not only is this a great method,

but it's also worth learning.

He also spent a lot of time on this.

Besides, he always says

to persist.

Only when we persist, then can we have results.

He's right.

We'll follow this lead too.

Uncle Yan,

your dark circles are getting more obvious.

Did you not get enough rest lately?

You must get more rest, okay?

Okay.

You can go now.

This kid is smart.

Don't let him suspect anything.

I'll get going, then.

Okay.

[Zhao, Four Seas Group]

Why didn't you take a few more days off?

A minor injury won't bring me down.

By the way,

did you tell your dad

about our development plan?

Yes.

He said

he wanted to see how you achieve your dreams

and also said I failed as an intelligence officer.

It was clearly a secret observation,

but I blew my cover.

The purpose of your return

is obvious.

How is this my purpose?

Isn't it for Chang Zheng?

Let me be fair here.

The yacht bombing case

and the mining accident from 28 years ago

have been keeping him busy.

So he neglected you.

I think it's excusable.

These two cases

are related to your family.

Aren't you worried?

Why would I?

We're the victims

of the yacht bombing case.

As for the mining accident,

you know

it was operated

by Qiongya Mining Group.

Stop telling me all the superficial stuff.

Just get to the point.

However,

we're running the mine now.

I think people outside the industry

may misunderstand us.

You also know

the public security bureau is investigating it.

And our group is currently undergoing

a critical transition period.

I'm worried this news

would create a negative image of us.

So are you asking me

to talk to Chang Zheng?

Just the opposite.

I respect his professional integrity.

He can continue with his investigation.

When the time comes,

I think everyone will understand.

But I'm worried about you

being caught between us.

I don't want you to be in a dilemma.

He personally rented the place.

He didn't hire an agent.

That's why you couldn't find him.

It's that unit over there.

The one with the curtain drawn.

Unit 402.

We should go now.

No.

You go.

I'll just wait here.

Okay, Fei.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Who's there?

We're from Changwu's

Binxi Criminal Investigation Detachment.

Deng Xiaojun!

Ning Yu.

Go and stop him.

Deng Xiaojun, stop running!

We are cops!

Stop right there!

Stop! Deng Xiaojun!

You should watch where you go, kid!

Are you okay, Fei?

I'm fine. Why would I not be okay?

Why did you run?

Are you okay?

I told you we are cops.

Why did you run?

None of the police

from Changwu is trustworthy.

You better watch your mouth, man.

Fei, calm down.

It's okay.

Deng Xiaojun, what's your problem?

Enough already.

Stop putting an act.

Since you got me,

where are you taking me?

I'll just go with you.

An act?

We're not the same!

Enough, Fei.

Let's go.

Come on.

Tell your captain

he must buy me a meal.

Don't worry about it, Fei.

My mentor is a man of his word.

He'll buy you a meal.

Okay.

Hello?

Deputy Chief Chang, we have him.

You got him.

Great.

Okay.

Listen.

Catch the ferry back

from Changbei at 5 pm.

Jin Yan and I will pick you guys up.

Okay.

Make sure to stay safe, okay?

All right.

Deng Xiaojun

will take the 5 pm ferry.

[Selected Cases Analysis of Administrative Procedure Law]

Deng Xiaojun

will take the 5 pm ferry.

[Selected Cases Analysis of Administrative Procedure Law]

Why didn't you send me to kill Deng Xiaojun?

You don't trust me.

I trust you.

But you don't have to do it

when someone else can do it.

I can do anything

for you at any time.

I know that.

[No naked flames while refueling]

It's crowded today.

When we get off the ferry,

don't do anything alone.

In the event of an emergency,

you must remember

not to leave our sides.

We're talking to you, Deng Xiaojun.

He's pretty calm.

Yes, Yan.

Guangming,

what's your situation over there?

Everything is going smoothly here.

The ferry will pull into shore soon.

Don't worry.

Okay, we're still stuck in traffic.

But we'll be there as soon as possible.

Okay.

[Passenger Waiting Room]

Let's go.

Fire!

A fire broke out!

Deng Xiaojun!

Deng Xiaojun!

Deng Xiaojun!

Stop right there!

Deng Xiaojun, hang in there!

Song!

Stop him!

Out of my way!

Stop right there!

Is this 120?

Someone is seriously wounded on the ferry.

Send the ambulance now!

Hurry!

Deng Xiaojun!

Hang in there, man.

Hang in there!

Deng Xiaojun!

Chang Zheng!

Deng Xiaojun!

How are you doing?

It happened so suddenly.

Deng Xiaojun.

Deng Xiaojun!

Did you call the ambulance?

Yes.

It's on the way.

My dad...

My dad was murdered.

They faked

the scene of the accident.

Who did it?

The leader of the tunneling team.

Cao...

Cao Dalong.

Deng Xiaojun.

Deng Xiaojun!

Tell the ambulance to hurry.

Song, are you okay?

Did you see what the murderer look like?

It was chaotic just now.

The murderer had been hiding among the crowd

when he assassinated Deng Xiaojun.

The whole incident happened in just seconds.

When I saw the murderer,

he was already fleeing.

What about you?

There were too many people on the ferry.

I couldn't even get close to him.

When I chase him to the dock,

he was already gone.

I could only see his back throughout the time.

Mentor,

I'll take responsibility

for Deng Xiaojun's death.

Please punish me.

Chang Zheng,

it's mainly my fault.

Enough talking.

It's not the time to find someone to blame.

Jin Yan,

bring back the surveillance footage of the surrounding area

and all the streets and alleys nearby

to search one by one

and see if we can find any clues.

Yes, sir.

Help him.

Okay.

Sorry.

Yes, Deputy Chief Li.

Yes.

Okay.

I need to go back to the station.

I want you two

to find Cao Dalong's whereabouts.

Inform me once you find anything.

Is that okay?

Okay.

Help him out.

Here.

Mentor.

Mentor.

Ning Yu.

I know what you're trying to say.

You just want

to tell me that your gout is real.

What?

You don't believe me?

If you don't believe me,

I can...

I can take off my shoes.

Please don't.

Can you stop trying to take off your shoes

whenever you have gout?

What can it prove?

Don't you think

your gout always comes in a timely manner?

What do you mean by that?

You know what I mean.

I will be frank with you now.

I've been observing you for some time now.

Every time we are out in the field,

your gout always flares up

whenever the case

is related to the Zhao family.

What?

I never did it on purpose.

Besides, I always show you

my leg's condition.

Why?

I do have gout.

Are you suspecting

that my gout is fake?

I never suspect if your gout is fake.

I only suspect the timing

of your gout flare-out is fake.

I can't believe you said that.

I'll make myself clear, then.

Everyone who suffers from gout knows

what food and drinks to avoid.

Unless you're eating and drinking deliberately

before you go on a mission.

Then your gout

would flare up

at the right time.

I told you

the mining accident case is closed.

It's closed.

Your task force should focus

on the yacht bombing case

to catch Zhao Pengcheng's murderer.

Chang Zheng, why are you not

letting go of the case

that was already concluded 28 years ago?

What exactly do you want? Are you that free?

I have grounds

that the yacht bombing

was not an isolated case.

Zhao Pengcheng met with Deng Xiaojun

when he was alive.

He was investigating the mining accident from 28 years ago.

The problem

is you caused someone's death because you're investigating an old case.

I know.

But Deng Xiaojun's death

happened to prove

that the mining accident wasn't an accident.

So the person in question wanted

to silence him.

What about proof?

Do you have proof?

Everything you said

was just your own deduction,

right?

Can you bring what you said

to the table

or the superiors?

Chang Zheng, listen.

The whole bureau has to take the blame,

including Deputy Director Xiao

because of the mistake you did.

Of course.

If...

Supposedly,

we have evidence

like

the last word

Deng Xiaojun said

before he died.

He didn't say anything.

No?

Yes.

Chang Zheng didn't tell me anything.

But I think

Deng Xiaojun did tell him something

before he died.

If he didn't say anything,

does that mean he's suspicious of you?

I don't think so.

After being in the police force for many years,

I should be able to tell.

What exactly did Deng Xiaojun tell him?

It's not hard to guess.

I'm sure he told him

something related to his father's death.

Master

was the head of security at the time, right?

Perhaps he knows something

about this.

I'll ask him.

Listen.

Whether

this case is related

to Master or not,

we should all lay low

at this time.

Lest Chang Zheng finds another lead.

I'll get going first.

Do you really not know

who killed Deng Lijun?

Do I need to lie to you?

But

they did want to tell me their plan.

But I...

Wait a minute.

Since they were the ones who planned it,

they must know who the murderer is.
