【ENG SUB】In The Name Of Justice EP27 | Zhang Yi / Li Guangjie / Jiang Xin | YOUKU
Thirteen years ago, you merged with Dacheng Mining. Who owned Dacheng Mining? Yu Tiancheng. The mining permit you requested
came through. Go finish the paperwork. Thank you so much. Thirteen years ago,
Wan Hai took Yu Tiancheng’s mine. Ten years later, Yu Tiancheng wanted to reclaim it because they found
copper and nickel in it. The two of them fought fiercely over those resources for years. Disputes between mines are common, but you two took it to the extreme. You managed the merger without buying it out or spending a single penny. How did you pull that off? [In the Name of Justice] [Episode 27] Jiang Yuan, I get that you want to come back and make a name for yourself, but you can’t do it under my banner, especially not where I used to work. What would people think of you? Or me? Sir, I must object. I’ve never used your name to do anything, and I’ve never asked
for your help, right? I built my business in Dongping completely on my own. It’s a time of fair competition now. Dongping has resources
and development plans, and I want to grow alongside it. What’s wrong with that? Everywhere else is fine, but not in Dongping. But… You need to leave Dongping. But why? I have to do it in Dongping. Only Dongping has copper and nickel. Plus, I’ve planned this for three years, and now you ask me to just leave. H-How can I? Three years? Weren’t you studying abroad
three years ago? Sir, let me walk you through it. Here’s the thing: the copper-nickel mine
we found in Dongping is actually Yu Tiancheng’s old mine. Which mine? The one Yu Tiancheng used to own. The mining permit you requested
came through. Go finish the paperwork. Thank you, Mr. Jiang. Thank you so much. Remember, we’re even. Mr. Jiang, I know you’re mad at me, but I’m truly sorry about what happened. Yu Tiancheng, don’t think I don’t know
what you’re up to. However, I didn’t expect you would go after my son. Mr. Jiang, I completely understand how you feel. Your son Yuan is studying abroad, but my student, no, my child, is still in prison. This record will stay with him forever. Who will take responsibility
for his future? Let’s go. You said you started planning it three years ago? No, thirteen years ago. Thirteen years ago, Wan Hai took
Yu Tiancheng’s mine. And three years ago, Yu Tiancheng wanted it back cause they found copper and nickel in it. It just so happens that Wan Hai is a mobster. So that way, we could… What did you do? Mobster? Who do you think is the real Mobster? Wan Hai or Yu Tiancheng? Do you even know what kind of man Yu Tiancheng is? Why didn’t you tell me? But, what’s wrong with him? How long has it been
since you last saw Yu Tiancheng? Do you even know what he’s like now? Yu Tiancheng’s company has gone public and is listed in Hong Kong. I’m working with him because he’s useful to me. He has the funds,
and I have the expertise! And what does Wan Hai have? He’s just a small-time thug! He won’t pull this off! Only Yu Tiancheng and I can! Wan Hai’s a mobster now, and he was one
thirteen years ago as well! Who says Wan Hai was a mobster
thirteen years ago? And who says Yu Tiancheng wasn’t a mobster thirteen years ago? Let me tell you, no way! Wan Hai has to be a mobster! If he weren’t a mobster, Yu Tiancheng and I
wouldn’t get this mine. And if I can’t have this mine, the past three years of my life
would be in vain! Dad, there’s no turning back for me. [Speed Up the Shift to Green Mining Today
Let Eco-Friendly Progress Lead the Way] You can stay here if you want. I only have one thing to say, this isn’t over. Mr… Mr. Jiang. I understand there’s some bad blood
between you two. Disputes between mines are common, but you two took it to the extreme. This is a grave matter and must be dealt with by law. Considering that both your companies are pillars of our city’s economy, and with the government aiming to protect your businesses, we encourage you to settle your disputes
before they escalate. The reason I came here is to help settle this issue. So, Mr. Yu, you need to give Dacheng Mining to Mr. Wan without compensation, and leave Dongping to pursue other opportunities. And Mr. Wan, consider the matter settled and move on. I’m busy, so tell me what you think, now. Then, it’s settled. Zhang Wenjing, someone’s here for you. How did you find out I was here? We’re good at locating people. Have you really given up
on being a lawyer? Everyone knows the Wan Hai case. Thanks to him, I’ve become infamous. No law firm dares to employ me. What do you want from me? We’re here on behalf of Provincial Procuratorate’s Special Task Force
on Wanchuan Mining Accident. We believe the Wan Hai case
was a miscarriage of justice. The task force was set up to reopen the Wan Hai case, and we need your help. What do you want me to do? So Wan Hai isn’t cooperating, huh? Have you considered why he isn’t cooperating? The legal system is the last line of defense for social justice. But if the judiciary and legal procedures aren’t fair, then what’s the point
of having just laws? If you don’t get that, I have nothing to say to you. There’s a protection network within Dongping’s judicial system. Our firm was smashed. We have to suspend practice. What you call fairness, justice, truth, that’s all perfect ideals from textbooks. But real life isn’t ideal. It’s all about survival. We have to put up with it. We can’t defeat them. I didn’t mention it, but one minute they accused me
of being a core gang member, and the next they dropped all charges and let me go. They decide whether the evidence is real or not. That’s how they operate. You want me to help you? But what will happen to me
when you’re gone? You can’t overturn this case
just like that. You couldn’t before, but you can now? Please have faith in our determination
and strength this time. Don’t tell me that. Ms. Zheng, as you’ve seen, I’m not a lawyer anymore, nor do I want to be one. So none of this concerns me anymore. You were the one
who gave my number to Wan Chao and asked him to give me the evidence, right? We set up this special task force because of that evidence, that someone caused the mining accident. I know you still
have a heart for justice and want the Wan Hai case
to be overturned. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have
had Wan Chao reach out to me. It’s unclear whether Wan Chao is alive. We have a moral and legal obligation to thoroughly investigate
the Wan Hai case and restore the Wans’ reputation. I know you want that too. We really need your help. Please keep faith in the justice system and yourself. Having faith that lawyers are essential for building a rule-of-law society. Ms. Zheng, you might be right, but I’m ready for a different life. I just want to work my nine-to-five job, earn a steady paycheck and spend all my free time
with my daughter. Law is no longer a part of my life, nor do I want it to be. I have to go to work now. Goodbye. Ms. Zhang, we’ll meet again. Excuse me. Come in. Mr. Xu, I’m Song Yanchuan, chief of Jiangnan Criminal
Investigation Detachment. What brought the Jiangnan CID to my office? Have a seat. Song, I know you. You don’t just visit me for no reason. So, what do you need? I’m here in Dongping on a case. I need all the surveillance footage from the Wanchuan Mining Accident and Qiao Zhenxing’s autopsy report. Mr. Xiu, Jiang Hongjun was arrested and has been in custody in Jiangnan for a full day now. Jiangnan? Is there anything you can do to help? Come, have some tea. Mr. Xu, this is the official letter. From the provincial office? Must be a major case. Please, have a seat. Rest assured, whatever you need our bureau to do, just let us know, and we’ll cooperate fully. The surveillance footage is all stored in our tech department. You can take all of it if you need it for your case. As for the autopsy report, I suggest you go to the ME’s office. I’ll assign a colleague to assist you as well. Mr. Liu, listen, there’s an official letter from the provincial office. Mr. Song, Unit Chief of Jiangnan CID, is in my office now. I will send him to you shortly. Please ensure he receives your full cooperation. Okay? Great. You can go see Mr. Liu later and have him write an
introduction letter. When officers from other jurisdictions work on cases in Dongping, that letter could make everything more convenient. Thank you so much. Is there anything else I can help you with? No, thank you. I’ll go see Mr. Liu then. Alright. Goodbye, Mr. Xu. Song, there’s something I’m not sure if I should tell you. They were mining illegally on the day of the accident, so they turned off
all the surveillance cameras at important locations. We’ve gone through the available footage, but we found nothing suspicious. For your case, if necessary, I’d suggest collecting footage from a wider area— just a thought. Thank you, Mr. Xu. Take care. Millions in cash! He’s the chief
of Criminal Investigation Unit! Are you aware of the gravity
of this situation? Yeah. Let me ask you: besides the investigations
into the mining accident and Qiao Zhenxing, was he involved in the Wan Hai case? Yes. [Judicial Expertise Center] Wait for me here. Alright. Mr. Song, here is Qiao Zhenxing’s autopsy report. The water sample from the scene [Forensic Pathology Autopsy Report]
matches the liquid [Diatom Test Report]
found in his lungs, but there’s something odd. In my experience, diatoms from the reservoir are usually circular, but the samples collected
by the sub-bureau have an irregular form. I’ve also reported this to Captain Jiang,
who was in charge of the case. Jiang Hongjun? Yeah. What did he say to you? Captain Jiang told me not to be subjective, to stick strictly to the actual results, and not to concern myself
with anything else. Mr. Song, there’s something I’m not sure if I should tell you. Go ahead. The night I tested the water, I saw Captain Jiang in the hallway of the lab. Captain Jiang? Captain Jiang? I thought it was you. Mr. Liu. What brings you here at this hour? Mr. Sun asked me to get
Mr. Xu’s signature. Is he gone? Yeah, you’re too late. Mr. Xu has already gone home. Alright then. I’ll come back tomorrow. Sure. Just come earlier tomorrow. I’ll let you get back to your work. Alright. Goodbye. Goodbye. This is the report from the water sample taken from the fish tank at Jinhai KTV. And this is the report you submitted for the water found
in Qiao Zhenxing’s lungs. According to your old report, Qiao Zhenxing drowned
in the Yongqing River, so the water in his lungs should be from the river. So can you explain to me why this new report says
the water from his lungs matches the water from the fish tank of the KTV? Look, this is the surveillance footage
from March 1st at 8:06 PM, taken at the Dongping Judicial Expertise Institution. Witnesses have confirmed that you were there at that time. Why? Alright. Alright, let’s move on. Enough! Enough, Hong Liang. It was me. It was all me. I swapped the water sample
from Qiao Zhenxing’s lungs. I did it under orders from Sun Fei. I don’t know why, but Sun Fei took a strong interest in me ever since I joined the force. Maybe it was because I was young and always on the front line. He said I was doing a good job and wanted to take me under his wing. I told him I… I was fine. Do you know what he told me? He said, “Jiang Hongjun, either you’re in or starting tomorrow, don’t let me see you in Dongping again. If you follow me, you’ll have a good life in Dongping.” He said I was different from
officials like you. Said you were properly trained, and I was just a turncoat who thought wearing the uniform gave me the power to do whatever I wanted. Those were his exact words. I tried to resist, but he helped my family find jobs and got my kid into school. If I didn’t comply, my wife and child
would’ve been affected. That’s how he pulled me in. But… but do you know, Hong Liang? The temptations were truly overwhelming. You could get all the power and respect you wanted. Those around you, and society at large,
would hold you in high esteem. You could also satisfy all your desires. I was not alone on board, there were many others. If it weren’t for you, who knows what we could’ve done. Alright. So tell me, besides you and Sun Fei, who else is on board? I’ll tell you just one thing, do you know how I got the cash every time I finished a task Sun Fei gave me? I would leave my car in a parking lot, [Vehicle Footage
Dashcam, Format] [Format the SD card?]
wipe the dashcam clean, leave the doors unlocked, and the next morning, the money would be in the trunk. So, I don’t even know who gave me the cash. Do you really think I’d know
who else is on board? I’m not worthy enough. Are you sure you’re sober now? Can you be held accountable
for what you say? I’m sober. I take full responsibility for every word I just said. Can you describe the person who threatened you? Any distinguishing features? I was blindfolded for days. I didn’t see anything. The only thing I remember is one of my captors had long hair. Try to recall if there’s anything else you remember, like the surroundings? That place smelled awful. Smelled awful? Like a chemical plant? A bathroom? No. A paper mill? Or rotten meat? No. Was it garbage? Yeah. Garbage. Just like the smell of the dumpster outside. Alright. We’ve recorded
everything you said today. You will await interrogation
regarding your accusation against Qiao Zhenxing. But I won’t be in danger
if I go out, right? What if they come after me again? Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Song. Can I say something? Biao, it’s me, Hong Liang. I’m on the investigation team too. I’m here. Don’t worry. You can trust us. We will make sure you’re safe, alright? Okay, I trust you. Call me whenever you need me, you have my full cooperation. One more thing, you really need to stop drinking. Ever since I reported Zhenxing, I’ve been drinking every day. Now that I’ve told the truth, I feel at ease. No more drinking. I promise. I’ve stressed countless times that government and business must
keep a clear and close relationship. Have you never emphasized this to your bureau? Now that your subordinates screwed up, you’re asking me for help? What do you want me to do? I know, but he handled many major cases in the bureau, including the Wan Hai case. What do you mean? Are you suggesting the Wan Hai case
was wrong? It’s just my speculation. But they wouldn’t take action if they didn’t have any real evidence. I told Mr. Xu before, but he didn’t say anything. So now, I have no choice but to come to you, because I think this concerns the reputation of the entire Dongping judicial system. Don’t talk to me like that! Are you threatening me? Ms. Lan, please help me. You’re respected. They’ll respect your position. You’re the only hope I have now. Tell me, did you know about what Jiang Hongjun did? I swear I had no idea. Have you committed
any duty-related crimes? No, Ms. Lan, I swear I haven’t. Then what are you afraid of? How do you want me to help you? Ms. Lan, I… I’m just scared. If Jiang Hongjun goes down, I’ll definitely be held responsible. But I swear to you and Mr. Jiang, I really haven’t done anything. You went to Mr. Jiang? No. Mr. Jiang told you to come to me? No, please don’t misunderstand. Sun Fei, only you know whether you’re implicated or not. If you’re at fault, neither Mr. Jiang nor I can save you. You’re a properly trained state official. You know the right choice to make under these circumstances. Don’t take chances. Got it? Sun Fei, answer me-did you get it? Yes, ma’am. Luo. Mr. Hong, the suspect just left
the Dongping Party Committee but isn’t going to his office. He’s heading home. Okay, copy that. All units, change your location. The suspect may have gone home. Follow him. Copy that. Got it. We’ve already changed location. Mr. Hong, there’s a new development. We just intercepted a text
from the suspect— he bought a ticket from Haizhou International
Airport to Hong Kong a few minutes ago. He’s trying to run? Report it back now. This is Cao Ye. I’m requesting the assistance of the Haizhou International Airport
Police Bureau. The suspect may be on the run. Prepare to intercept. The suspect is in the car, ready to leave the garage. [Lamb Soup Diner] All units, be alert. The suspect stopped
in front of the Lamb Soup Diner. [Lamb Soup Diner] What a coincidence. Hong Liang. Liang, you like lamb soup too? Yeah. You want some? No thanks, I’m good. Did you come all the way
just for this soup? From Haizhou. You look exhausted. Did you sleep at all last night? You can tell? A suspect I interrogated a few days ago kept crying, begging me for another chance. He promised he’d turn his life around. I’ve seen many like him over the years, but maybe with age, my perspective is shifting. I kept wondering, if I really gave him another chance, could he really contribute to society? The law isn’t only about punishment. Sometimes, it’s also about education. Of course, as a prosecutor, you definitely understand law more than I do, but sometimes the truth is blunt, you know what I mean? I’m rambling. So, how’s Mr. Jiang doing? He’s good. And Min? She’s doing well too. And your daughter? What was her name, Dou? Hong Dou? I’m a pretty nostalgic person. I was Mr. Jiang’s driver for many years. The Jiangs have really helped me a lot. I guess you can even say that they’re like family to me. Hong Liang,
it’s been a while, hasn’t it? This is a rare opportunity. I’ll go to the kitchen, slip the owner a little cash so the two of us can catch up. Wait for me. Fei, all the money you have has been frozen, so this dinner’s on us. From now on, why don’t you do the right thing? Let’s sit down. We’re disturbing the others. Sit. This is really good. You don’t have to drag me. I can walk on my own. Which room? Keep going straight. Alright. Wasn’t Hong Liang with you? Where is he? May I ask, your device looks pretty good, is it a new model? I saw it when I was at Provincial
Procuratorate for training last year. We don’t have it in Dongping. The Provincial Procuratorate is surely more equipped than we are. You two are from the Eleventh Division, right? How do you know that? I’ve been in this line of work
for decades. May I ask how I should address you two? I mean no offense. I just want to be respectful. I’m a prosecutor
from the Provincial Procuratorate. My name is Luo Shixin. You can call me Luo. Luo. And this is? I’m Zhang Huai’en, assistant prosecutor
from the Provincial Procuratorate. You both look like you’re just in your early thirties, and you’re already
deputy section chiefs? So young and already handling the responsibility of interrogating an ex-official like me? Your superiors must really trust you. Mr. Sun, do you want to know where I’m from? I’ll tell you. I’m from Jiangnan. M-My hometown isn’t far from there, so we’re basically from the same town. Yeah, we have something in common, huh? Yeah. So let’s get to the point. ‘The point’? Luo, the essence of interrogation is communication. If our communication goes well, it would really help your career a lot. Your superiors never taught you this? Enough, Sun Fei, let’s stop beating around the bush. This isn’t your precinct, so drop that bureaucratic tone. Your only option now is to cooperate with our investigation. Luo, Zhang, rest assured. Feel free to ask me anything, you have my full cooperation. Alright. Let’s talk about the passports. Passports? What passports? We found three passports on you, all forged. How do you explain that? Oh, those passports. That’s not your responsibility, right? Aren’t you with the Eleventh Division? Maybe you should ask Dongping Commission
for Discipline Inspection to take over. I promise I’ll tell them everything. So, do you two have any other questions? I’ve got a mountain of work on my hands. Ms. Lan and Mr. Xu are both waiting for my reports, alright? Come in. Ms. Lan, what’s so urgent? Sun Fei and Jiang Hongjun
have been detained. Are you aware? Sun Fei and Jiang Hongjun? By… by whom? I’m not clear on the details, but Jiangnan Municipal Bureau
of Public Security showed up with a letter from the provincial office and asked for
Qiao Zhenxing’s autopsy report. It’s a joint police-prosecutor operation. It seems the Guidance Group has been upgraded and is back. They’re here for the Wan Hai case. Zheng Yaping has already talked to Wan Hai in prison. I warned you to be cautious about whom you trust. You put Sun Fei in charge of both the Wan Hai
and Qiao Zhenxing cases? How could you trust him that much? Ms. Lan, Sun Fei was brought up
by the higher-ups. He thinks he’s omnipotent and never reported anything to me. I had to chase after him for updates. This is the ‘great team’ I have. Dongping officials are being taken away one by one. The investigation
has reached our doorstep, and no one told me anything? Is this how you work? Since the investigation on the Wan Hai case started, no one has ever told me the truth, nor warned me. I don’t have to tell you
how big the impact will be if the Wan Hai case goes wrong. Xu, you think you can still retire peacefully? And you, Li Renjun, you think you can hold on to your newly earned position
