"The Dance of the Storm"

"Episode 31"

It's you.

This is the second time I'm here this year.

It's almost as if destiny brought me here.

Li Jun Jie,

I've always wanted to apologise to you,

because I've always thought...

you were the one who killed Ma Xiao Jun.

I had a bad temper...

and I was straightforward,

so I said a lot of mean stuff.

Now that there's no longer any misunderstanding,

I hope you won't take it to heart.

I'm sorry.

Don't ever apologise to me.

At that time, everyone saw me as a bad guy...

and a fugitive.

I'd also do the same if I were you.

Don't worry.

The evidence of this case...

will go through me.

And I believe in you.

It's quite good that...

there's someone who believes what I say.

Let me remind you.

Only if VX3 is found...

will you be exempted from prosecution.

You'll have to think of your own way.

Thank you.

Shi Yun Hao.

There's an old saying that goes,

there's no such thing as a friend forever...

or an enemy for life.

What do you mean by that?

You should know what I'm trying to say.

Fine, let me tell you.

When Jia Lai and Jun Jie came to steal VX3,

in fact, I was there.

Jun Jie told me himself that...

he took part in the act...

because he was coerced.

And that hostage in question was Zi Xuan.

Zi Xuan is able to prove that.

You grew up together with Li Jun Jie.

Captain Zhou is his girlfriend.

And the three of you joined MOIS at the same time.

Your relationships are too closely related.

If there isn't concrete evidence...

to prove you people's words,

the credibility of your testimonies isn't strong.

Are you suspecting that Zi Xuan and I colluded...

to deceive you all?

Then, can I assume that...

you're doubting us for no reason...

because you have other aims?

But what are you after?

It seems you don't even wish to find out...

what the truth really is.

Look,

sometimes we can get quite agitated.

You wish to prove your good friend's innocence,

and my aim is to...

retrieve VX3 as soon as possible.

VX3 concerns MOIS's reputation.

I have to be cautious.

What we can confirm now is,

Li Jun Jie stole VX3.

All right, from what you've said,

even if he didn't do it willingly,

we...

can only use him to track it down.

That's why I think you shouldn't come to me now.

You should go look for Jia Lai.

Captain Shi.

-That's right. -Okay.

You carry on.

Sure.

Maya.

What did they ask you today?

An internal investigation shouldn't be discussed privately.

I'm worried that if I don't answer correctly,

I'll get myself in trouble.

At this point in time,

it's best to answer truthfully...

if you don't want to get into trouble.

No, but I...

Since the VX3 was stolen,

all of us have been involved in the investigation.

What's all this?

It's just a routine inquiry.

What's there to complain about?

It's a waste of my time.

Moreover,

that Bureau Chief Ling,

to be honest, I'm quite afraid of him.

Look at you.

We just have to answer their questions truthfully.

Don't act all sensitive.

You're a security agent, you know.

Is it because you know something...

that's why you feel guilty?

Don't talk nonsense.

I have a family.

How could I possibly have done that?

It seems like the first round of inquiry is over.

It's just a bluff.

They said I could go after asking me a few questions.

They won't be able to find out anything...

with their investigation method.

They know what to do.

You really think so?

Does it matter?

Of course it does.

Yun Hao,

VX3's control unit is with you, isn't it?

When Mr Mu realised there was an abrupt change of situation,

the first thing he did was to look for you.

There must be a reason...

why he was so anxious to see you.

What exactly do you want?

Give me VX3's control unit.

I can guarantee your safety...

as well as maximise its value.

As your senior...

Stop saying you're my senior.

You'll die before I do, that's for sure.

Also, stop trying to get close to me all the time.

Judging by the current direction of the inquiry,

it's very favourable for Mu Chuan.

VX3 is nowhere to be found,

so he'll guide headquarters and the government...

to believe it's Li Jun Jie's doing,

by saying Li Jun Jie stole the VX3.

He's saying all the evidence we've obtained so far...

is fabricated.

Moreover, he kept holding onto...

the video of Jun Jie sneaking into MOIS.

He seems to be determined...

no to let anyone...

find out VX3's whereabouts.

But I don't believe that...

he didn't leave behind any trace.

Nor do I believe...

he's the only person who knows where VX3 is.

By the way, since you're so close to him,

can you tell me...

if there's anybody...

by his side whom he trusts the most?

Growing up, I've been by his side until now.

He rarely gets closely acquainted with someone.

Other than me,

Jiang Hua is the person who's worked with him for the longest period.

Moreover, when Jun Jie first escaped,

Jiang Hua was the one Mu Chuan sent to capture him.

Great.

Zi Xuan,

bring Jiang Hua to me right away.

All right, I understand.

Give me VX3's control unit.

As your senior,

I can guarantee your safety.

Stop saying you're my senior.

You'll die before I do, that's for sure.

Jiang Hua!

Come on.

Report to the police, quick!

Go quickly!

Go!

You were sent by whom?

Was it Mu Chuan?

Bring me with you, quick.

Don't move!

Chase after her!

Are you injured?

No.

What are you doing here?

I came here to talk to Jiang Hua.

Have you seen him yet?

No.

What's wrong?

Inside... Inside the lift...

There's a dead man in the lift.

This is an artwork by...

a Neoplasticism artist from the De Stijl period,

Friedrich Vordemberge-Gildewart, who is very popular recently.

This red dot...

is like the rules above our heads.

Sometimes, it might even make us feel suffocated.

But if we see it from another perspective,

it's also a beacon.

Mr Ma, I can tell you're quite fond...

of this artwork.

There's a collectors' quote, "having seen an artwork is akin to owning it."

Having the chance to view an artwork...

is a blessing to begin with.

Mr Ma, you mean...

I like this artwork.

I'm buying it.

Mr Ma,

for those of us in this industry,

our biggest wish...

is to let each collectible art...

find its most suitable owner.

It sounds to me like...

I'm not the most suitable owner for this artwork.

We're both businessmen.

I won't make you lose money.

Of course not, Mr Ma.

How much an artwork is worth...

isn't up to me.

Instead, it depends on...

the value it holds to the collector himself.

You're asking me to propose a higher price on my own?

Okay, I like that.

I have an idea of what its value is like in my heart.

My staff will take care of it.

Mr Ma, you mean...

Bao.

Yes, sir.

Bring this gentleman...

to take the money.

Yes, sir.

The price I'm offering,

you can rest assured that it's going to be a good sum.

Boss,

Mu Chuan's sidekick,

Jiang Hua, was murdered.

It had to be Mu Chuan.

As to where the VX3 currently is,

I'm afraid only Mu Chuan himself...

is aware of it.

Take the corpse away.

Dr Zhao,

the autopsy result...

Initial inspection shows that...

there are three gun wounds on Jiang Hua's body.

Among them, the ones on the right abdomen and the right thigh...

weren't fatal.

His fatal wound...

is that his left chest was shot at where the heart is.

Detailed autopsy results...

will have to wait until we return to the police station...

for further investigation.

-Get back to work. -Yes, ma'am.

Zi Xuan, what happened on your side?

When I arrived,

I saw Hasan shoot Jiang Hua.

So I fought her right away in order to save Jiang Hua...

and told him to call the police.

After that, when Hasan and I were fighting,

Yun Hao came to our aid,

but Hasan escaped...

while we weren't paying attention.

The next time I saw Jiang Hua,

he was already found dead in the lift.

Did you see Jiang Hua when you arrived?

No.

When I came out from the lift,

I saw Zi Xuan and Hasan fighting,

and I went over to help.

From what you've said,

there should be two batches of people who were after his life.

I disagree.

If Hasan really wished to kill Jiang Hua,

with her gun skills,

she would've killed him with two shots.

I suspect she's here to capture him...

or ask him about VX3's whereabouts.

Understood.

Why did you think of meeting Jiang Hua all of a sudden?

I thought since he's the closest person to Mu Chuan,

he's most likely to know where VX3 is.

That's why I wanted to ask him.

Now that he's killed,

it's even more impossible to find out where VX3 is.

And there'll be a bigger chance for Mu Chuan to be freed from charges.

Jun Jie doesn't know about this yet.

I have to think of a way to inform him.

All right, now.

Don't worry about it. Get some rest.

Young Master.

Uncle Qin.

Can you help me to arrange for a meeting with Mu Chuan?

I'll see if I can help.

Okay.

I'll wait for your news.

Give me one more glass.

You shouldn't drink too much.

If that lady didn't save you that day,

who knew what could've happened?

Has that lady come here again since then?

No, I never saw her again.

I have to say thanks to her in person.

I thought so.

Thank you.

Hello.

What?

Wait, I'll go somewhere else so I can hear you properly.

Go ahead. What happened?

Maya, something happened to Jiang Hua.

He was murdered in his home.

What?

He was murdered in his home?

Yes.

Was the murderer caught?

Not yet.

Got it.

Hello. How is it?

Captain Zhou, the autopsy results are out.

Okay, wait for me.

I'll be right with you.

Hello, Uncle Qin.

How did it go?

That can be arranged.

Okay.

These are the results issued by the police just now.

Traces of clothing fibre were found in his nails.

That's right.

They were found in the nails of...

his left index finger and middle finger.

They weren't from his own clothes.

They were left when he grabbed the killer's clothes.

After comparing it,

although the colour resembles that of MOIS's uniform,

the material is completely different.

The trajectory of the bullets that took Jiang Hua's life shows...

that the killer shot from the front.

But his falling posture shows that...

not only did he not hide,

he even moved towards the killer himself.

That means...

perhaps Jiang Hua knew this murderer.

That's why he didn't have his guard up.

But after he was shot,

he could only leave behind clues...

by grabbing the person's clothes...

with the hope that we'll find out the identity of the murderer...

through these details.

-Move! -Don't touch me.

Hurry up.

Jiang Hua's dead.

Was it your doing?

I warned him many times...

not to bother you.

Seems like he didn't listen.

How did you know he came to look for me?

Where there's a will, there's a way.

You still have spies in MOIS?

You told them to monitor me?

When it's time for you to know,

you'll find out.

You won't tell me anything.

You don't even trust me.

Yun Hao,

so far,

you're the only person I trust.

Protect Zi Xuan...

as well as the control unit.

You keep reiterating...

how important it is to protect the control unit.

Is it for the sake of Zi Xuan...

or yourself?

Yun Hao,

I've always known that VX3's control unit is with you.

If it's for myself,

I would've obtained it long ago.

Does that mean...

I almost ended up the same way as Jiang Hua?

I know you're trying to protect yourself.

As long as Jiang Hua's dead,

there'll be no one else who knows about VX3.

That way, you'll blame it on Jun Jie...

and find a chance to be freed from charges.

Yun Hao,

what are you doing currently?

I'm about to go downstairs to buy supper.

What's wrong?

Nothing, I'm just asking.

Then I'll see you in the office tomorrow.

Sure, see you tomorrow.

Did you get injured?

No, don't worry.

Yun Hao arrived at the scene to save me,

but when we left,

we found Jiang Hua lying dead in the lift.

Dr Zhao passed to me his autopsy report.

We suspect...

the murderer...

was someone he knew.

Could it be Mu Chuan's subordinate?

Jiang Hua's dead,

so no one else knows where the VX3 is.

That means Mu Chuan is in an even safer spot now, isn't it?

No idea.

By the way,

did Yun Hao come and visit you just now?

Why do you ask?

Just now, when I came in,

I saw him in the corridor outside.

I called him to ask what he's doing,

but he told me...

he's going downstairs to buy supper.

Why do you think he lied to me?

He's either here to see me or Mu Chuan.

Anyway, I think...

it's really dangerous...

for you to be outside all alone right now.

Although I don't believe what he says,

I know one thing's true.

That is, he won't harm you.

He'll protect you.

But the problem is, now, he couldn't protect you...

and neither could I.

I wish I can open up this cell...

and shut you in.

It'll be safer this way.

And you won't be in danger.

Don't worry.

I have no choice.

Look, I've been in here for three to four days...

with a single bed.

Why don't you come in and keep me company?

Be careful.

I will.

Jiang Hua was killed.

When did that happen?

Just now.

I was in here the whole time.

You can't be suspecting me, right?

So, you ordered someone to do it instead?

Zi Xuan,

Jiang Hua had followed me for so many years.

I'm the one who suffered a huge blow upon hearing he's killed.

Now that Jiang Hua's dead,

no one else will know where VX3 might be.

Isn't that your wish?

You've always suspected me.

Everyone thinks the same.

Moreover, we've found out that the murderer was someone he knew.

Even if you didn't order it,

you should also know who exactly the murderer is.

I've made many enemies in MOIS.

Now that I'm locked up here,

as the saying goes, "if a man once falls, all will tread on him."

Many people will take this opportunity to sabotage me.

But my biggest worry now is you.

If you're really worried about me,

all the more you should tell me...

who killed Jiang Hua.

I really have no idea.

Then, other than me,

did anyone come and visit you?

No.

You really don't plan to tell me?

I've given you enough chances.

Both Meng Liang and Zheng died because of you.

Are you sure you want to keep living this kind of life...

with Li Jun Jie and the rest?

If something happens again,

how are you going to face those brothers who died in future?

Moreover, Meng Liang told me before he passed away,

for you to stop...

mingling with those people.

And that includes Li Jun Jie.

On top of that,

Li Jun Jie and Zhou Zi Xuan are now dating.

There's no place for you.

I was hoping...

to sell the clinic,

and the two of us can go to Europe together...

and together,

we can settle down there.

That way, Meng Liang's sacrifice wouldn't be in vain.

Dr Liang, I know what you're saying.

In fact, ever since I joined you all,

I've seen you all as family.

But do you know...

why I must join them at MOIS?

I can't let Mr Li, Sly Fox,

and Zheng die in vain.

I have to investigate the case.

So, for this matter,

you can just let them handle it, can't you?

Dr Liang,

I promise you,

once I've settled the matter,

I'll come and look for you.

Since you've already decided,

then just go ahead.

But remember,

no matter where you go,

this will always be your home.

Ms Zhou,

I'm entrusting Jing Wen to you.

Don't worry.

I'll take good care of her.

Let's go.

I'll be fine.

Promise me you'll be fine too.

Goodbye.

Take a seat here for a while.

Our human resources department...

is doing a background check on you.

It'll take a while.

Is there anything I can help you with?

Just like last time when I gave the testimony,

I hope he'll be freed from charges.

So far, it seems there's nothing you can do to help.

But I feel...

Liang Kun doesn't seem like he's been completely truthful...

about Meng Liang.

Hello.

I understand.

I'll be away for a while.

Have a seat first.

As all of you know,

last night,

our colleague, Jiang Hua,

was killed in his house.

So far, the police are closely investigating the matter.

I'm sure we'll capture the murderer soon.

That's right.

Another MOIS agent...

from our office has left us.

During times like this,

all the more we should cooperate with each other...

to capture the criminal...

and seek justice for the innocent.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Did you drink again last night?

In times like this?

Why are you still in this condition?

Okay, got it.

Maya,

this isn't the first time I'm telling you this.

It's not as if I drink during office hours.

That's not the point.

What you're doing isn't called drinking.

You're abusing alcohol, you know that?

You reek of alcohol.

Will that do you any good?

Drink or not, it's up to me.

It's not like my work is affected.

Don't forget,

you're in charge of information security.

If you remain in this condition,

you'll make mistakes easily...

and get manipulated by others.

Sister Zi Xuan, are you also suspecting...

I'm the one who circulated the video?

You all can suspect me,

but have you considered my feelings?

Back then, you all said that...

you'll avenge Ma Xiao Jun.

But what about now?

Captain Zhao,

do we have all Jiang Hua's test reports?

We're still waiting for the final item from the police station.

I really don't feel like doing this.

He used to be our colleague,

but now he's lying on the autopsy table.

Others also wouldn't feel good about it.

We just hope the police will conclude their investigation soon,

so he could rest in peace.

That'll have to wait until we've found the murderer...

before he could rest in peace.

Any discoveries with the dead body?

From the bullet's trajectory,

it was unarguably a frontal shot.

But he didn't hide.

Instead, he moved toward the killer.

One thing's for certain, the murderer was someone he knew.

Also,

we've found fibre from the murderer's clothing...

from between Jiang Hua's nails.

It's the material you were wearing yesterday.

Are you suspecting me?

Not yet.

We have to verify some of the evidence.

I'll go back to work if there's nothing else.

Captain Zhou,

I need to report something to you.

Go ahead.

Jing Wen, leave us for a while.

Here's the test result.

Any DNA residue?

No.

Only a small amount of fibre from the murderer's clothing was found.

It should be cotton and linen mixture fabric in navy blue colour.

Navy blue colour?

Yes.

Was the murderer injured?

No.

Did it remind you of something?

No.

All right, I understand.

Okay.

"The Dance of the Storm"
