=Episode 3=

(An adaptation of the novel
"When a Snail Falls in Love" by Ding Mo)

The cops are getting closer to Eig.

Should we let him lay low
for a while, boss?

He already made a mistake
during the museum incident last time.

I think the best option

is to have him safely deliver
this batch of goods first

before letting him go into hiding
for a while, boss.

If he gets arrested,

the cops might trace it back
to you, boss.

Boss.

Something happened, boss.

I saw Black Lion at the factory

while we were moving the goods.

Get the men out of the factory

and restore the site
to its original state

Yes, boss.

Did you just say Black Lion?

That's an old friend of mine.

Da, did you send Miss Mu in a taxi?

Would Miss Mu be angry?

You even asked if she saw anything
at the scene.

But from the surveillance footage,

Miss Mu was walking like anyone else.

She wasn't even using a cane.

From her appearance,

no one could tell she was blind.

Da,

didn't you know Miss Mu is blind

when you were probing her?

That doesn't mean she couldn't hear.

Did she hear any useful clues then?

With cars coming and going,

and people moving around,

she doesn't even know who's who.

How can this be Da's fault?

If anyone should be blamed,
blame the one who did the analysis.

Mr. Han.

- Mr. Han.
- Mr. Han.

Vita.

Use the time you spend analyzing

to increase your fitness.
It'd be more useful for us.

That's right.

You need to apply your diligence
in the right place.

Whenever you're diligent,
it's always us who suffer.

That was for the recruit
welcoming ceremony.

I asked her to do it.

Is that so?

I'd say it was more
like a farewell ceremony.

I heard

you made a three-month agreement
with the captain, right?

Da.

Yes.

Later, go to the factory
I visited last night

to investigate the site

and see if there are any new leads.

Yes.

Here's the address.

Got it.

Ning.

Yes.

I want you to investigate

the state police stations
that have had recent Naga Gang cases.

All right.

Then transfer all relevant information
to our station.

But there are about 20 police stations.

Yes.

And I want all the documents
on my desk this afternoon.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Han.

I don't think he can handle it alone.

Please give him a hand.

Okay.

As for you,

Vita.

Take the measuring tape

and measure that place,

near your desk.

Why do you want me to measure that?

We'll be adding a lot of documents
in the future.

So I want to buy a new cabinet.

Are you saying

that I'll be in charge
of those documents from now on?

No, it's not that.

What I'm trying to tell you is

that in three months,

you won't be sitting here anymore.

So I need to buy a new cabinet
to make use of the space.

Think about this yourself.

Since you joined us,

we've been on two missions.

And each time,
I had to risk my life to save you.

If you continue
with your current working style.

We don't have to wait for three months.

The moment you run into a criminal,
you'd be dead before you know it.

I still have three months
to prove myself.

I'll do my best to do my job.

I'll also uncover the truth
behind the museum incident

and figure out your connection
to that incident.

But I must thank you

for always extending
a helping hand in time.

But from the moment I decided
to become a police officer,

I was already prepared

to sacrifice my life at any time.

Ming.

Yes?

Maybe you should measure it.

Are you deaf?

Don't forget.

After you're done measuring it,
order a large-sized cabinet

to fill up that area completely.

Captain,

you've never given me the chance
to visit the crime scene.

If you keep evading me like this,

it's as if you've already
sentenced me to death.

Can you hear what I said?

Captain!

What do you want?

Why are you only targeting me?

Are you afraid?

Are you afraid something
might happen to me?

Did something happen to you before?

Vita!

Just do what you're told!

Who are you to probe into my past?

Did something happen
to the captain in the past?

Actually, I don't have to wait
for the three-month period to end.

I can tell you to leave now.

If my investigative methods
did cause trouble for everyone,

I'm willing to reflect on myself

and accept all decisions.

If you cause trouble again...

You can punish me anyhow you see fit,

including...

Surprise!

This way, please.

Put the blue ones there
and the pink ones here.

Come on.

I want to make an appearance.

Ding ding ding! Wow!

I knew you'd cause trouble again.

But I didn't expect it to be so soon.

Hello, everyone.

I find this place lifeless.

So I want to add some vitality
for you all.

I also consulted your superior's
superior's superior about this.

I plan to take Miss Vita out for lunch.

Mr. Han!

Yes?

Help me out here.

You can go now.

But you're going with Mr. Han.

Please take Vita to the file room.

Today, you're not allowed
to go out for case investigation.

Also, you can't participate
in the fieldwork of the operation team.

And she's prohibited
from contacting witnesses of this case.

I want her transferred
to the file room as a clerk.

Transfer?

- Captain, I haven't had the chance...
- No need to argue.

In my opinion,

you haven't proven
that you're fit to be a police officer.

You don't have that ability yet.

You don't even have the basic etiquette
required for the job.

Go.

You're too harsh.

Vita, wait.

Pla,

are you sure you want to block my way?

The file room.

No entry for outsiders.

If you want to go in,

please seek permission
from my superior's superior's superior.

That's troublesome.

Help me get rid of this trash.

Hey, that's mine!

Traces of Naga at Napi Temple.

A large ship sank
in the Naga River basin.

Children missing in Naga Cave.

Perhaps I can find traces here
that match the crime scene.

Luger, the leader of the Naga Gang
was executed by Black Lion.

That was what those people
called the captain.

The Naga Gang

traffics underage girls

and sells them into prostitution
across borders.

The gang is a group
of believers who worship Naga.

Every one of them
carries the tattoo of Naga.

Luger

was killed by Black Lion.

His subordinates were captured.

The Naga Gang case was closed.)

Could it be that the gang
is not completely eradicated?

Black Lion was in charge
of the operation.

(Police Lieutenant Badin Unga died)

Badin, let's play together.

Stop sweeping.

Go and play with your friends.

But I haven't finished sweeping yet.

I'll do it later.

But I really want to sweep it.

All right then.

Let's go.

Lock him up.

Here, back to where it was.

Crawl out.

Finally, we found the key.

Lead us to find the culprit.

Is it my brother's key?

No.

It belongs to the bad person.

What bad person?

Searching for answers
is the duty of the police.

Are you ready to catch the bad person?

Yes, I'm ready.

I have a secret mission
for you to carry out.

(Naga Gang information)
Infiltrate Naga Gang as an undercover.

The mission is to wipe out
this criminal organization.

Understand?

Yes, sir!

(If it weren't for me,
you'd still be alive.)

For the sake of our unity,

let's welcome our two new members.

Black Lion, come here.

Vita,

I can't have lunch with you today.

Captain asked me
to go to the crime scene again.

What's wrong?

Are you worried about Sen?

Don't worry.

He has already gone back.

I just wanted to confirm something.

But

can you reveal it a little?

What is it that only you

and the captain know?

It's better for you not to know.

It's annoying.

How's the work in the file room going?

I texted you. But you didn't reply.

I had to turn over my phone
because no phones are allowed inside.

They're afraid someone
might take photos and leak information.

But I don't understand

why the captain assigned you
to work there.

How are you going
to prove your abilities?

Sure, I can.

How so?

I have help.

I'll be right back.

Hello, Wasu. Are you busy?

I'm busy every day except today.

I just finished eating. I'm free now.

Why? Do you want me to pick you up?

(No.)

(Actually, I need to investigate a case.
But I can't go by myself.)

Why can't you go by yourself?

My boss gave me clerical work
and won't allow me to go out.

It looks like
you've caused trouble again, right?

(That's why you're grounded.)

It's for the best and safer this way.

Then my sister can stay safe.

(Why did you call me then?)

I want you to help me
with the investigation.

What? I'm a businessman,

not a police officer.
You're joking, right?

How long have we been siblings?

Have you ever seen me joking?

(I just need you to find Miss Mu
and get a simple statement from her.)

Vita, but I'm scared.

This is police work,
not my area of expertise.

Please help me.

If I could go,
I wouldn't need to ask for your help.

Oh, Miss Mu can't see.

So treat her nicely.

Record everything she says
and send it to me. Got it?

You truly are a troublesome sister.

Vita,

Sen won't give up, right?

It's Miss Xin. His relative, right?

Is she coming for the team?

You can get back to work.

- I'll take care of this.
- Hey, Vita.

Sen went home. So don't worry.

I come here to speak to you.

Welcome to Mu Dessert House.

Hello.

I'm Wasu.

Vita's older brother.

She's the petite policewoman.

I see.

Do you still remember her?

Ah...

I'm sorry.

I was very rude.

It's okay. Don't take it to heart.

Actually, I'm a little happy

to have someone treat me
like a normal person.

Is there anything I can help you with,
Mr. Wasu?

The reason I came to see you

is because Vita wants
to gather more details.

So she asked me to come and see you.

I see.

Do you have time to talk?

Sure.

This way, please.

All right.

Mr. Wasu, please come this way.

Since the incident,

I haven't had the chance to thank you.

This

injury is healing quickly too.

But it'll definitely leave a scar.

Actually, there's no need
to treat me to a meal.

It's just part of my duty.

Regardless of the reason,

you saved my life.

Also,

you've been bothered by Sen.

I'll talk to him later

and ask him not to harass you anymore.

Do you have something
to discuss with me?

I just come to express my gratitude.

If it's just to thank me,

a wealthy young lady like you
could send something

instead of treating me to a meal.
There's no need for that.

You really are as straightforward
as Sen described.

Then I'll just be honest with you.

I have something to ask of you.

Could you join me for meals
more often in the future?

I'm tired of the people around me.

They only say things I want to hear

or things they think I want to hear.

But no one tells the truth.

You're completely different.

I can say we get along well.

What do you think?

I'm afraid that won't be possible.

Frequently having meals together
might not work

because work at the police station
is demanding.

But if it's about being friends,

of course, we can.

Okay.

Is it true that you can't see?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Don't you like desserts?

It's not that I don't like them,
it's just...

I've been eating less sweets lately

because it makes me gain weight.

It makes you gain weight.

I'm sorry.

I was rude again.

It's okay.

Did I not provide enough information?

Miss Mu, the truth is,

I don't know the situation well.

But what

did the police ask you this morning?

They asked

if I overheard
any suspicious conversations.

That's about it.

But I didn't hear anything significant,

only the sound of cars passing by,

and people walking.

That's all.

I have some questions to ask you.

First question.

Okay.

Where did you go on that day?
*[using respectful female language "ka"]

I'm sorry.

I only read what was sent by Vita.
I don't usually use the "ka" expression.

I was just teasing you.

On that day,

I went to a baking equipment store
that I often visit.

I'm familiar with the place.
So I didn't use my cane.

- The baking store. Sorry about that.
- No problem, no problem.

She's familiar with it.

So she didn't use her cane.

- I'll continue with my question.
- Okay.

If it's a place you're familiar with,

can you describe anything different
compared to previous visits?

Usually, when I go to this shop,

(I'd wait in front of the shop)

(because the shopkeeper
helps bring out the items.)

(But on that day,)

I seemed to hear the sound
of a vehicle parking.

(But parking is prohibited
in front of the shop.)

Then I also heard

(two different footsteps. It's probably
two people getting out of a car.)

I also heard something like

the sound of a rolling shutter.

Hold on a moment, Miss Mu.

I couldn't note it down in time.

Ah...

Sorry about that.

Can you go back

to the part where the vehicle
was parked?

- Sure.
- Okay.

(Wasu Message)

(Miss Mu's information is very useful.)

(Let's start with the first part.)

(If you could talk to her face-to-face,
it would be better)

(because there is too much information.)

(I'm exhausted.)

Miss Xin,

you see...

I have to take my leave first.

I have some urgent matters
to take care of.

Is there something on my face?

Sorry, I didn't mean to stare.

But how did you know?

Human eyes are powerful.

But I lack that kind of power.

So heaven gave me
another strong ability.

I have a heightened sense of hearing
compared to ordinary people.

I also have a more sensitive
sense of smell.

And my sense of touch
is better than average.

In a way,

it's a good thing.

Please wait a moment.
Vita should be here soon.

Okay.

Hello, Vita?

Did you find the shop?

(It's better to investigate on-site.)

Miss Mu said she heard
the sound of a rolling shutter door.

But they all use
retractable iron doors in this area.

There's only one abandoned house
that has a rolling shutter door.

Vita,

why did you go there
instead of coming here?

(Turn on your speaker.)

Okay, I've turned it on.

Miss Mu, thank you very much
for the information you provided.

Your information has been very helpful.

You're welcome.

(I have a few more questions.)

(Wasu, please take notes.)

Vita.

Are you sure you heard
the sound of a rolling shutter door?

Vita, wait a moment.

Miss Mu, please wait for a moment.

Vita, go ahead and ask.

- Wait, I'll put it in your hand.
- Okay.

All ready. Vita, go ahead.

When you heard the two men's footsteps
getting back into the car,

were their footsteps slower,
as if carrying something heavy?

Or

were there any footsteps
of a woman accompanying them?

No.

The footsteps were quite normal.
They got into the car after that.

(Sound of congested nose)

(I remember something.)

I heard that sound too.

(Sound of congested nose)

Can you identify who made that sound?

(I definitely remember this person)

because this person's breathing sound
is a bit strange compared to others.

(It might be difficult to differentiate
between ordinary people.)

(But as someone who constantly perceives
the surroundings through hearing,)

I definitely remember.

(Wasu, write it down.)

That day, Ms. Mary said she went out.

Thank you, Miss Mu.

Mr. Wasu,

don't you want
to try our shop's dessert?

Sure.

What do you think?

It's delicious.

If they can use
the neighbor's water pump.

This means

it's with Ms. Mary's consent.

That means she's fully aware of it.

Vita,

we're preparing to head out.

(Is it about Wan's case?)

Yes.

The criminal is in the house next door.
A case of being deceived by appearances.

- I have to go now.
- (I'm at the crime scene too.)

Let's go.

Vita, what are you doing here?

What's that picture for, Vita?

The water pump and water pipe
connecting to the abandoned house

can prove that the criminal
is in the house next to the victim.

- I'll report this to the captain.
- Forget that.

The main thing is to arrest
and bring the criminal to justice.

Let's go quickly.

Join us.

What are you waiting for? Hop in.

Let's go together.

Come on.

I heard that Luger is coming
in person to handle it.

We can finally see the real Luger.

Are you serious?

(I thought you were dead, Luger.)

Open it.

Darn, it! The cops are here.

What should we do now, boss?

Luger.

So it's you,

Eig.

Open it.

Come here, guys.

There's a basement here.

Ming, go up and keep an eye on Ms. Mary.

Ning, watch Eig.

Mr. Han, Da,

you'll go down with me.

- Yes, sir.
- Yes.

Don't be afraid.

Get up slowly.

Help me.

Help.

Help!

(Reporting, sir.)

(The target is in the basement.)

(We're taking them upstairs.)

(End of report.)

These scums.

Mom!

Mom!

The police told me

you offered me as a sacrifice
to the Naga.

I wasn't forced. I did it willingly.

I know

since Dad passed away,

you have had a hard life because of me.

It's my fault.

I'm sorry, Mom.

It's my fault, my child.

I love you.

I love you too.

I love you.

Wan.

Wan!

I can't believe it.

She may be the stepmother.

But she sold her daughter for money

and even gave them a hiding place.

Little trick.

They used the Naga incident
as a cover-up

to scare many people
from passing through this area.

This happens to provide them
with convenience.

Luckily, the captain
saw through her lies

and subdued her first.

Or else she would have informed them.

The rescued girls were injected

with a nerve-controlling substance,
believing that the Naga truly exists.

I'm afraid it'll probably take
some time for them to recover.

Da,

summon Miss Mu
to record her statement tomorrow.

She could hear. So she should be able
to prove Ms. Mary was there.

You followed me here, didn't you?

You knew all the leads I found.

You...

You also saved me.

This incident made me realize
that you're not physically fit at all.

I thought you were too weak
to fight criminals.

But I didn't expect you to be injured
by bamboos.

I did say

if my investigative methods
cause you trouble,

I would accept any consequences.

I apologize.

You can punish me anyhow you see fit.

Come on, let's have a meeting.

Meeting.

I just wanted to tell you

that you did well this time.

But you went against my orders
by investigating the case alone.

But luckily,

you still knew your limits
during the investigation.

You didn't recklessly
enter the abandoned house.

Or else you would
have fallen into their hands.

So you have three months to do well.

Do your best.

Give it all.

And tomorrow,

we'll record the statement together.

Thank you, sir.

And...

Your arm.

I'll be fine.

It was self-defense.

It's unrelated to you.

Meet me at the old training ground

tomorrow morning at 7 o'clock.

Yes, sir.

Luger,

are you really back?

(The past is like a raging fire.)

Don't put your hand in the fire.

(Luger Case File. Case Closed)

That person is not someone
you can mess with.

If Luger is really still alive,

I'll just kill him with my hands again.

Have you noticed anything unusual

after you gave the statement
at the police station?

It seems like someone is watching me.

But it's just a feeling.

It's probably nothing.
