[Be Reborn] EP18 | Detective Cracks Cases with Talented College Boy | Zhang Yi/Wang Junkai | YOUKU
[Be Reborn] [Episode 18] You said that it was your fault. Why did you say so? Look. I grew up with your father here. We learned lock picking skills from your grandfather. Both of us went on an adventure together. We were young. We committed a lot of crimes. I remember
That the first thing we stole was the “Water Lily”. I don’t remember meeting you when I was little. I cooperated with your father till late 1998. At that time, he met your mother. He told me that he wanted to quit and live a normal life. Then, you were born. Back then, we still kept in contact but we never met each other.
Until 12 years ago, Who are you? Ding Shenghuo. A colleague of yours. How did you find me? I know the person to whom you sold your stolen goods. Don’t be nervous. I’m here to negotiate a deal with you. Have a seat. What are you trying to do? Mr. Xu. I know that you’re skillful.
You didn’t make any mistakes all these years. Hence, I would like to invite you to do this mission. [Luoshen] Luoshen? That’s right. The Luoshen painting by Zhou Fang. The painting was transported to Qingcheng last week. It will be displayed in Qingcheng Museum for a month. Every day, after the exhibition,
It will be sent back to Chayuan Vault for safekeeping. If we want to steal it on the way or in the museum, it’s almost impossible. We can only steal it from the vault. Are you going to steal it at the Chayuan Vault? No way. As far as I know, Chayuan Vault has
An active guard patrol system of at least ten men. Do you think that I’m able to handle this? Don’t worry. I’ll handle the security guards around the vault. You just need to open the three locks of the vault in ten minutes. I am sincere about this. Name your price.
Didn’t Ding Shenghuo invite you? Why did my father end up stealing it with him? I did some research on the ways to open the door of the vault. After thorough research, I thought that I couldn’t make it. So, I thought of your father. Your father rejected the offer then. I thought it was over. So, I left Qingcheng. But Ding Shenghuo didn’t give up. He threatened your father with your mother. What? Things went south. I’ve bought your favorite food. I’ll cook you a meal later. Why are you here? Where is my wife?
It’s my first time here. I’m a stranger. I’m afraid that your wife might be scared to see me. So, I tied her up and let her rest upstairs. Don’t worry. I didn’t hurt her. What do you want? I just want to express my sincerity in working with you. Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu. Medicine. Darling.
Medicine. Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu. Hold on. Come on, Xiaoyu. Open your mouth. Open your mouth, Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu. Hold on, Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu. So, my mom passed away due to this, didn’t she? It wasn’t due to her sickness. You were in school then. So, you didn’t know. When is mom coming back? Well, she might take a while for her check-up. Don’t worry. Hurry and go to sleep. I’ll wait for mom then. [To Jiang Taigong who doesn’t keep his word] Don’t lie to me. We’ll wait for your mom. [Emergency treatment room] The patient died of Your wife is dead. Don’t you need to care for your son? Never involve and hurt one’s family. How could you break this rule? Please, it’s the 20th century. Are you still talking about rules? If you listened to me and worked with me, we wouldn’t come to this point.
I’ll give you one last chance. Get me Luoshen. Take the money and live a peaceful life with your son. The incident about your wife is unexpected. I didn’t want that to happen either. I’ll give you another million. Do think about your son. My unintentional act resulted in a huge mistake. I advised him
To leave with you. But he refused. He said that those men wanted to steal Luoshen. The Luoshen painting holds a secret. The secret is significant. Besides, it’s related to the Zhuang family too. He can’t let them get their hands on it. Secret? What is the secret? Yaobai didn’t go into details.
I was not in the position to ask either. He only mentioned that those men were powerful and an escape was not a good solution. I sensed that he seemed to have predicted something. [Qingcheng News. Luoshen Case’s suspect is drowned] (which caused the guardrail to break.) After the Luoshen Case, I was terrified. I dare not to do anything. [Renming Road Elementary School] (I dare not to expose my identity.) Then, I retired and went into hiding. A few years later, after the case had died away, that’s when I finally came out of hiding. Five years ago, I rented your family’s old house and opened this shop. Until today, you came to me. Based on what you said, Luoshen should be destroyed
Alongside my father. But I heard from the smuggling ring that Luoshen has reappeared. Also, a person called Monsieur wants to get this painting. What did you say? Monsieur? Monsieur. Do you know him? I’ve been investigating this for 12 years. I found out that there’s a crime syndicate hiding behind Ding Shenghuo.
Rumor has it that the leader of the syndicate is called Monsieur. He’s extremely smart. I’ve been investigating for some time, yet I only managed to acquire a few rumors about him. This man committed a crime when he was young and hurt his leg. He needs to walk with a cane. I know nothing
About his appearance and age. As he never reveals himself. He manipulates his minions to commit crimes through the Internet. Hence… So, the case was planned by Monsieur? I think that he directed Ding Shenghuo to steal Luoshen. Your mother’s death was intentional too. He wanted to tell your father that they are desperate criminals
Who will do anything to achieve their gains. If that’s the case, it matches my investigations. What is it? About half a year ago, an appraiser I know told me discreetly that he came into contact with Luoshen. I told you these as I’ve known you for a few decades. I understand. Buddy. This is a hot potato. People are eyeing it. Listen. Don’t get involved in this. A few days later, I heard that Chang Le is dead. He was drunk and drowned himself. How was that possible?
He had severe liver disease. He never drank alcohol. Someone must have gotten information from him and killed him. I think it’s either Ms. Hong or the Monsieur. But… But is the painting authentic? Hold on. There are a few possibilities. First. This Luoshen we’re talking about is a fake. Chang Le made a mistake.
But he has decades of experience in appraising paintings. It’s very unlikely that he made a mistake. Second. That painting was the painting that your father stole. Due to some reasons, the Monsieur did not get his hands on it. Someone else got it instead. So, the Monsieur is eyeing this painting again. Another possibility
Is too unlikely. Never mind, I won’t say it. No. You must tell me. I need to know all the possibilities. Wenjie. I’m just making a guess. Could it be that your father is still alive? Luoshen is still in his hands. His corpse might be swept away to somewhere far away. [Qingcheng Public Security Bureau] All thanks to your cooperation, we managed to solve the case. Comrade Su Ying. We must thank the Provincial Public Security Department for its support and assistance. That’s right. Well. As you have fully supported us,
We managed to achieve such results. We… Of course. The operation won’t succeed without Captain Luo’s understanding and cooperation. Thank you. Never mind the courtesies. I’m more concerned about her schedule. By the way, Chief Zhao. I was going to report this to you. I won’t be leaving. Is it confirmed? Yes. Well, Chief Zhao.
About the case regarding Ms. Hong and the smuggling ring. Although the case is solved, there’s a crime syndicate hiding behind their back and manipulating everything. The cases of Ding Shenghuo, Li Shuting, and Li Anfu are related for sure. They are able to assign so many people to commit a number of malignant crimes.
This means that they’re powerful. I have reported the case to the Provincial Public Security Department. The authorities are concerned about this. They have granted me a special dispensation to be stationed in Qingcheng city to solve the case. Captain Luo. We’ll be working together again. Are you happy? It’s good news. It’s good news.
It’s good news that Comrade Su Ying is staying. I can see that you two work well together. Chief Zhao. We shall proceed to analyze the case. We won’t disturb you any further. Alright, go ahead. Get back to work. Go on. Come on. Luo Jian. Yes, sir? Come back here.
I have something to tell you. Please go ahead. How is it? How is the progress? Didn’t you see it? She has taken over Ms. Hong’s case. Now, she’s also taking charge of the Monsieur’s case. That’s our progress. I’m talking about the relationship between the two of you. From friends to comrades,
And now she’s my superior. Our relationship is stronger than gold. Continue your act. Are you going to pretend again? What do you mean? I’ve heard about the pillow incident. Why are you so gossipy? I even heard that you were in the same police academy. Look. You are peers and you look good together.
Does she look as good as me? Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror? That hurts. I heard that she pursued you back in the police academy. -She… -Well, I think that you shouldn’t just be the Chief of the City Council. You should also be the Chief of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Hey! This little brat. Now, we’ll start the special crime investigation meeting. Well… According to Ms. Hong and Li Anfu’s confession, we can deduce that there’s a crime syndicate and the leader of the syndicate is known as Monsieur. Liao Shuang. Present the current findings of the appearance and characteristics of the Monsieur. Alright.
The identity of the Monsieur can be traced back to a decade ago. This Monsieur is mysterious. He always contacts his minions to engage in criminal activities through the Internet. Even if he makes a video call, he will change his voice and cover his face. However, from what we’ve gathered, the Monsieur
Is probably a man. His height is about 1.75 m. His left leg is slightly limping and he has a habit of wearing gloves. He uses a black cane. That’s all we got. Li Anfu confessed that Li Shuting and he are both the disciples of the Monsieur. During the Moon Goddess Case,
I suspected that Li Shuting placed the “Tears of Moon Goddess” in the pool so as to pass it to her accomplice. Speaking of which, that accomplice might be the Monsieur. Dazhi. Have you investigated the people who have approached the pool for the Moon Goddess Case? Yes, I did. A total of 146 people
Walked past the pool. The majority of them are the hotel guests and the staff of the exhibition hall. There are still 14 people whose identities couldn’t be identified. Ye. Yes, Captain Luo. Have you prepared the surveillance footage of the lobby? The surveillance footage of the lobby, around the site
As well as the exterior has been collected. Good. Project it to the screen. Show them the footage. This is the surveillance footage of the lobby. Okay, next. Next. Next. Next. Move on. Next. Stop! The upper right. Zoom in. This person is suspicious. Keep an eye on him. Find out where he went.
Why are you sighing? What’s the matter? You’re happy that you have gotten your phone back. But what about me? My Candy hasn’t contacted me ever since. I’ve tried calling her countless times but she didn’t pick up. She must have blocked my number. Why? Why? Does she think
That the solution I designed for her computer isn’t good enough? Hello. Hello, I’m the house-owner of Number 326, Jianshe East Road. Yes, I’m Zhuang Wenjie. The last six digits of my identification number? Two, one, zero, three, one, five. I would like to confirm the tenant information of the house. Five years ago.
It was a watch shop, wasn’t it? Okay, thank you. Are you in trouble? Officer Luo came to look for Fatty Sun and me. He even asked about your situation. Well. He wanted to invite me to work at the Public Security Bureau. He was probably doing a background check. Are you serious, buddy?
Are you planning to work at the Public Security Bureau? If that’s the case, we shouldn’t get too close in the future. By the way, Wenjie. Are you free next Friday? What’s the matter? The Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner. Let’s celebrate the festival together. That’s right. Let’s join a social gathering.
Forget about Candy, maybe I can meet my next Sweetie. What are you talking about? He doesn’t need it. Why? Well, you can go ahead and plan it. Something urgent came up. I have to drop by the library. Okay. Well, Captain Luo. I’ve analyzed all the footage that we could find regarding this man.
First, it is undeniable that the man was avoiding the surveillance cameras on purpose. From the footage, we can see that he was last seen heading toward the Main Street. The place has a high traffic and it’s extremely crowded. If we’re going to track his whereabouts, it might be difficult.
We’ve come to a dead end again. It’s really strange. It’s strange indeed. What’s your opinion? He stopped at the pool twice. If he’s the Monsieur, he had the time to take away the “Tears of Moon Goddess”. Why didn’t he do so? Shuang’er. Yes. Contact Wen Yuanzheng. Tell him to bring over
The “Tears of Moon Goddess” again. This way, Zhuang. It’s rare to see such a smart kid like you. Let me say it again. If you ever decide to give up on studying law, you’re welcome to come to me. I’m flattered, Mr. Fang. I’m doing this out of interest. I’m here today
To ask you about the Luoshen painting. Sure, come on. Luoshen. [Luoshen] Painted by Zhou Fang, a painter of the Tang Dynasty. It was painted on a long silk scroll, which depicts the spectacular view of Luoshen coming out of the water. Besides, it also depicts the bustling lives of the surrounding common people.
It’s a rare piece of art. However, the one you’re looking at is a replica made based on the pictures taken. The original painting was stolen 12 years ago. The painting had been through a lot. During the Republic of China era, it was the cultural relic of the Southward Expansion. Among those cultural relics,
Some had gone missing, while some were preserved after much predicaments. One of them is the Luoshen painting. Those who escorted the cultural relics had sacrificed their lives. Those cultural relics were destroyed. The only one survivor only managed to preserve the Luoshen painting and handed it to the government. Well.
It managed to be preserved during the war back then. But decades later, it was destroyed in the hands of a thief. Isn’t that a pity? I’m afraid that only the people involved in the case know what exactly happened then. I couldn’t ask Ding Shenghuo. Besides, he’d never tell me the truth.
I’ve noticed this as well during the previous cases. Ding Shenghuo, the woman who stole the “Tears of Moon Goddess” and Li Anfu are just the minions. Someone is behind them, manipulating them. Now it looks like that person is the Monsieur. He’s the only one who knows the truth. Well, Captain Luo.
There isn’t any problem with the necklace. Wait a minute. Up there. Stop. What’s wrong? What is this? [Qingcheng Daily] [Qingcheng Daily. Burglary of returned overseas Chinese’s villa. Li Chengyi’s “Water Lily” is lost] [Great accomplishments require ambition and tireless effort] [Burglary of returned overseas Chinese’s villa in 1987. Li Chengyi’s “Water Lily” is lost] [Footprints near the safe (Number 1)] [Footprints at the balcony (Number 2)] Sir. What do the numbers mean? I’m not sure what they represent either. Do you think that it has something to do with its history? The “Tears of Moon Goddess” is a cultural relic from the Southward Expansion.
Rumor has it that during the war, a Japanese soldier dug it out from a pile of corpses. Since then, no one has heard of it. It only appeared recently at an auction organized by Sotheby’s. As it looks like the tear of the Moon Goddess illustrated in the Western legends,
It is named “Tears of Moon Goddess”. Judging from the material and craftsmanship of the pendant of the gemstone, it should have been made before the Ming dynasty. However, there are contemporary Arabic numerals on it. That’s really strange. This means that these numbers have been engraved on it in recent years. No.
These numbers had been on it for years. Besides, the numbers weren’t engraved on it. Look. It seems like traces of carving. But in my opinion, it seems like a traditional method that the ancient craftsmen would use back in the Republic of China era. Such a method could preserve
And won’t damage the cultural relics. It’s a pity that it is a lost method. He’s trying to deliver a message without damaging the cultural relic. The message was specifically engraved at the back of the pendant. I feel even more puzzled now. Why does the Monsieur
Want a bunch of numbers from the Republic of China era? Why? [The boss of an antique shop in Qingcheng City drowned himself] Why are you here again? Didn’t I tell you not to come here anymore? I need to talk to you. What do you want? I want to find the Monsieur. I told you. This is dangerous. Am I not in danger now? Ding Shenghuo. Li Anfu. Ms. Hong. These smugglers have come to me.
My dad’s whereabouts are unknown. My mom was murdered by them. Calm down. I’m at fault. I’m not capable enough to protect you. Please think about it. I know very well that it’s a cliff. I can’t possibly let you jump off a cliff. Instead of avoiding and chickening out, I should take the initiative.
Even if it’s a cliff, I’m willing to jump off it. Alright. What’s your plan? I’ve been thinking about Li Anfu’s plan. Right from the beginning, he wasn’t targeting Wang Xue. He was targeting me. He used Wang Xue’s death to involve me in this. Then, he had the police put their attention on
Ms. Hong’s smuggling ring. Actually, he made use of others’ resources for his own gain. As Ms. Hong wanted to get her hands on Luoshen too. Hence, the Monsieur exposed her to the police deliberately so as to remove his adversary. But this clue has come to a dead end. We only know
That the Monsieur wants to get his hands on Luoshen. We know nothing about the whereabouts of Luoshen and what the Monsieur is planning to do. How about the “Tears of Moon Goddess”? Are there any clues worth investigating? The “Tears of Moon Goddess” is in our hands. I think they probably didn’t know
That we’ve found the numbers behind the “Tears of Moon Goddess”. But we have no idea what the numbers represent. Is this a dead end again? No. There’s one man. Ding Shenghuo. This man is the key person who connects the entire case. In my opinion,
Not only does he know about the “Tears of Moon Goddess”, but he also knows about getting the palm print and iris. There’s a high chance that he knows about the Monsieur’s entire plan. But don’t forget about what he did in the first case. He lured Zhuang Wenjie into the case with “Water Lily”.
Then, [Father and son, “Water Lily” Case] he went into Liao Detong’s vault. Ding Shenghuo? [Monsieur. Theft of “Tears of Moon Goddess”] Ding Shenghuo is a slippery man. He wouldn’t cooperate with us. It’s hard to make him talk. It’s okay. We just need to deduce his plan inversely so as to acquire
The information we’re looking for. I witnessed Ding Shenghuo stealing the data from Liao Detong’s computer. If this is part of the Monsieur’s plan, the data would be crucial. We must get in touch with Liao Detong to find out about the data. It’s the only way to know about the Monsieur’s next step,
Track down the Monsieur, and find out the truth about my father’s death. Comrades, keep an eye on Liao Detong. We must get him to tell us the truth. ♪I will take responsibility for everything♪ ♪As the answer lies hidden♪ ♪The quiet people♪ ♪Will still meet♪ ♪Can’t hide behind the old window♪
