Episode 4
[01:41] Tang Wei
Hey, you forgot something!
[01:43] McDonald's
A courier will pick it up at 7:00 PM.
[01:45] McDonald's
Just give it to him.
[01:46] McDonald's
If he doesn't pick it up,
[01:48] McDonald's
you know the consequences.
[02:00] Tang Wei
There are still three hours until 7:00 PM.
[02:03] Tang Wei
In three hours,
[02:05] Tang Wei
I can wash my hands of this.
[02:17] Lu Mingfei
It's like the sky fell.
[02:19] Lu Mingfei
The damage is too severe.
[02:21] Chu Zihang
The collapse pattern doesn't make sense.
[02:23] Chu Zihang
If it were a normal earthquake,
the destruction wouldn't be so concentrated.
[02:27] Lu Mingfei
What about the casualties?
[02:28] Chu Zihang
There weren't many people since the station just started operating.
[02:32] Lu Mingfei
How lucky...
[02:35] Chu Zihang
Bloodstains...
[02:36] Chu Zihang
Raymond might have been
standing here at the time.
[02:40] Lu Mingfei
Brother, what can you tell from all
this broken glass on the ground?
[02:44] Chu Zihang
We can't see anything,
but there's someone who can.
[02:49] Chu Zihang
There's an ability to imagine the situation
at the time through observation.
[02:52] Lu Mingfei
Who are you video calling, Brother?
[02:54] Chu Zihang
Someone you know.
[02:57] Chu Zihang
Can you see my surroundings clearly?
[02:59] Nono
Very clearly.
[03:00] Nono
Norma's already filled me in,
so I understand everything.
[03:04] Nono
Right now I need you to walk along
Raymond's route at the time,
[03:07] Nono
and I'll try to recreate the situation.
[03:09] Lu Mingfei
Nono?
[03:11] Lu Mingfei
Should... I say hello to her?
[03:14] Nono
Who's on your left?
[03:15] Lu Mingfei
Huh? I'm not on screen.
[03:17] Lu Mingfei
How did she know someone's there?
[03:19] Chu Zihang
It's Lu Mingfei. He's the
specialist of this mission.
[03:22] Chu Zihang
I'm supporting him.
[03:23] Nono
Tell him to move aside,
he'll interfere with my judgment.
[03:27] Chu Zihang
Move aside.
[03:28] Lu Mingfei
Okay.
[03:30] Lu Mingfei
She didn't even bother
to wish me a happy birthday.
[03:33] Chu Zihang
Let's begin.
[03:34] Nono
Right now, you are Raymond,
carrying important documents.
[03:37] Nono
He's just walked into
the south train station.
[03:39] Nono
He's unfamiliar with the place,
so he'll definitely stop to look at signs.
[03:44] Nono
Keep going forward.
The departure floor is upstairs.
[03:52] Nono
Stop there.
[03:53] Nono
Look down. There should be footprints.
[03:55] Chu Zihang
There are lots.
[03:56] Nono
Yes, there should be a leak above.
[04:00] Nono
From the different footprints and
spacing left behind Raymond,
[04:03] Nono
you can tell that he's already
been targeted by this time.
[04:05] Nono
Raymond will continue to move forward,
[04:07] Nono
then stop and turn his head.
[04:10] Nono
He will take in his surroundings.
[04:12] Nono
It's his habit and in line with
the College's investigation process.
[04:16] Nono
Nothing aroused Raymond's
suspicion at this point,
[04:19] Nono
and he continued to move forward
15 meters to the ticket gate.
[04:22] Nono
Just stop there for a bit.
[04:24] Nono
Take another look around.
[04:29] Nono
He didn't see anything unusual and
prepared to enter the station.
[04:33] Nono
After that, the collapse began.
[04:37] (Flashback) Crowd
Earthquake! No!
[04:40] (Flashback) Crowd
Run! Earthquake!
[04:45] Nono
The place where he died was
very close to the bench.
[04:47] Nono
With his training, he would
have hidden under the bench.
[04:51] Nono
But he didn't,
[04:52] Nono
which means that he encountered danger
in a place where he couldn't escape.
[04:56] Nono
The conclusion is very clear.
[04:58] Nono
The information was lost within
a few minutes of his death.
[05:01] Chu Zihang
Why within a few minutes?
[05:03] Nono
Someone stepped in Raymond's blood,
and the bloodstains are fuzzy.
[05:06] Nono
So this happened when the blood was fresh.
[05:08] Nono
Although the scene had lots of footprints,
only this footprint was near Raymond.
[05:13] Nono
Judging by the footprints,
[05:14] Nono
this person's steps were weak
and he's not highly trained.
[05:18] Nono
He must have escaped through the
nearest exit, which is to your right.
[05:28] Nono
The thief drove a high horsepower vehicle.
[05:30] Nono
Its tires softened from the heat.
[05:32] Nono
He was nervous and floored the accelerator,
leaving behind these tire tracks.
[05:35] Nono
I don't need to help you with the rest.
[05:38] Chu Zihang
Thanks.
[05:38] Nono
Oh, I have another theory
for you to think about.
[05:41] Nono
There was a third person present at the time.
[05:46] Nono
That person saw the thief steal the
information after Raymond's death,
[05:49] Nono
and the thief would have
seen that person, too.
[05:51] Nono
The thief's shoes were bloody,
and his footprints turned around,
[05:55] Nono
which means that he saw
something of concern,
[05:58] Nono
most likely a person.
[05:59] Chu Zihang
What kind of person?
[06:00] Nono
I don't know. I just put together
all the images you sent over,
[06:04] Nono
and felt that someone was
watching everything at that time.
[06:07] Chu Zihang
Understood, thanks.
[06:10] Nono
Bye!
[06:11] Lu Mingfei
Brother, how's the investigation going?
[06:14] Chu Zihang
Almost done. I think
we can solve it tonight.
[06:17] Lu Mingfei
That's good, that's good!
[06:19] Chu Zihang
I have more experience than you,
[06:20] Chu Zihang
so for now, I'll handle the
operational details for you.
[06:22] Chu Zihang
Can we meet at 19:25 at the
Runde Towers, specialist?
[06:26] Lu Mingfei
Of course! I trust you to do the job!
[06:43] SIGN
Chen
[06:44] (Flashback) Chen Family (old man)
Tell me, on that day at
the bottom of the sea,
[06:47] (Flashback) Chen Family (old man)
what happened between you
and Dragon King Norton?
[06:50] (Flashback) Chen Family (old man)
You were so badly injured.
How are you still alive?
[06:56] (Flashback) Nono
I... won't tell you.
[06:58] (Flashback) Chen Family (old man)
Continue.
[07:07] (Flashback) Lu Mingfei
Nono...
[07:08] (Flashback) Lu Mingfei
Nono...
[07:09] (Flashback) Lu Mingfei
Nono...
[07:11] (Flashback) Lu Mingfei
Don't die!
[07:13] (Flashback) Nono
Ricardo...
[07:20] Susie
Are you okay?
[07:23] Nono
I'm fine.
[07:25] Susie
Sorry, I was just messing around with you.
[07:29] Nono
I don't feel well. I'm going to the sauna.
[07:31] Susie
By the way, did you remember that
today is Lu Mingfei's birthday?
[07:36] Susie
Did you message him?
[07:37] Nono
I remember.
[07:42] Susie
It feels like Nono has become
a different person lately.
[07:52] Norma
The tire tracks found by
Chu Zihang were left by a large SUV.
[07:56] Norma
and this is the most suspicious
name on the list of owners.
[07:59] Norma
The Millennium Labor Export Company.
[08:02] Norma
The company's registered
address is the Runde Towers.
[08:04] Klein
The Millennium Labor Export Company?
[08:07] Klein
I know that name. It's the
Hunter Organization's company.
[08:10] Webber
Correct, and it's headed
by a guy named Tang Wei.
[08:13] Webber
The Hunters are a loose organization
hired to help people solve problems.
[08:18] Webber
It's a complex organization made up
of desperate outlaws and rogues.
[08:23] Webber
The jobs they accept are in the
grey area between legal and illegal.
[08:28] Webber
They generally do not
murder or commit arson,
[08:30] Webber
but they steal, dig graves
and loot artifacts.
[08:34] Klein
In any case, a major part of their
work is related to the Dragon Raja,
[08:39] Klein
and they have a small number of
hybrids among their members.
[08:43] Klein
Those outlaws who broke into the College on
motorcycles earlier were from that organization.
[08:48] Webber
Yes, Norton, the King of Bronze and Fire,
[08:51] Webber
was a professional hunter working in New York
before he awakened as a Dragon King.
[08:55] Webber
Back then, he was just a punk.
[08:58] Webber
So far, the College has avoided
direct contact with the Hunters.
[09:02] Webber
Apart from when they broke into the College,
[09:04] Webber
the petty fights of the Hunters
rarely infringe on College interests.
[09:08] Klein
But this time is different.
[09:10] Klein
They actually dared to kill Raymond,
an execution bureau specialist,
[09:13] Klein
and took the school board's
important information!
[09:16] Webber
We've only got four hours before the school board
asks for the information to be returned.
[09:21] Webber
We don't have time to waste.
[09:22] Webber
Let's take direct action.
[09:24] Klein
The school board has already made a move.
[09:26] Webber
Oh?
[09:27] Klein
They seem to be suspicious of Chu Zihang.
[09:30] Klein
Besides appointing Lu Mingfei
as the mission specialist,
[09:32] Klein
they also sent the people on this
list to assist in the mission.
[09:37] Webber
Why would they send these people out?
[09:42] Webber
These politicians who only know how to
give orders simply don't understand
[09:46] Webber
that they can't help Chu Zihang.
[09:49] Webber
He is unable to work with others.
[09:51] Webber
Every mission he's ever been on
was actually completed by him alone.
[09:56] Aunt
Hurry up! The elevator doors are closing!
[10:00] Uncle
I'm so tired. What's for dinner tonight?
[10:03] Aunt
I asked Lu Mingfei to cut
carrots, steam sausages,
[10:06] Aunt
chop some spring onions,
and soak the rice noodles.
[10:07] Aunt
Doesn't Mingze like to eat
crossing-the-bridge noodles?
[10:10] Aunt
Tonight, we'll have rib stew with
carrots, rice noodles with rib soup,
[10:13] Aunt
and Guangdong sausages.
[10:14] Aunt
I also bought salmon, so I'll prepare
some sashimi for my favorite son.
[10:19] Lu Mingze (little bro)
Sounds good, Mom.
[10:25] Aunt
How unrefined.
[10:27] Aunt
Why are you back so late?
[10:29] Lu Mingfei
Aunt!
[10:30] Aunt
Where have you been?
[10:31] Aunt
I told you to steam sausages,
chop onions, cut carrots,
[10:34] Aunt
and buy a toilet seat.
Have you done all that?
[10:36] Lu Mingfei
It's finished... Finished. All finished.
[10:40] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I need to have faith.
[10:41] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I trust Chu Zihang.
[10:42] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I trust Chu Zihang.
[10:44] Aunt
Hanging out all day...
[10:46] Aunt
Don't you know there's a family dinner tonight to celebrate Lu Mingze studying abroad?
[10:49] Aunt
Preparing dinner for him is the
most important thing today!
[10:53] Aunt
I will check your work carefully later.
[10:55] Aunt
If you've made a mistake, I will punish you!
[10:57] Lu Mingfei
Yes... Yes...
[10:59] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I trust Chu Zihang.
[11:01] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I trust Chu Zihang.
[11:03] Aunt
Where did you put the chopped
carrots and spring onions?
[11:05] Aunt
I need them right now—
[11:07] Uncle
Huh?
[11:12] Aunt
Robbery! Take the money in the
desk drawer! Don't hurt us!
[11:13] Lu Mingze
Thieves!
[11:15] Uncle
Help! Help!
[11:18] Head of College Labor Dept and 3 people
Greetings, specialist Lu!
[11:23] Lu Mingfei
You guys are... from
the College's labor department.
[11:26] Lu Mingfei
Hello, guys.
[11:27] Head of College Labor Department
We have completed all the missions
assigned by your deputy Chu Zihang.
[11:31] Head of College Labor Department
Please inspect.
[11:33] Lu Mingfei
Good. Thanks for your hard work.
[11:38] Head of College Labor Department
Although the mission was to
replace the toilet seat,
[11:40] Head of College Labor Department
we realized that your toilet was too old,
[11:42] Head of College Labor Department
so we took the initiative to replace
it with the latest AI toilet model,
[11:45] Head of College Labor Department
which has 4,000 modes built in.
[11:47] Head of College Labor Department
In addition, we also replaced all the
plumbing in the building for this.
[11:50] Head of College Labor Department
Of course, if you still
like the original toilet,
[11:53] Head of College Labor Department
we can also restore it immediately.
[11:55] Lu Mingfei
Uh... no. This is good.
[11:58] Lu Mingze
What's the point of an AI toilet?
[12:00] Aunt
I-I don't know.
[12:02] Head of College Labor Department
Please go to the living room
to see the steamed sausages.
[12:04] Head of College Labor Department
The mission was to steam sausages,
[12:06] Head of College Labor Department
but we didn't know your taste,
[12:08] Head of College Labor Department
so we prepared three flavors:
[12:09] Head of College Labor Department
spicy, five-spice and Cantonese.
[12:12] Lu Mingfei
How thoughtful.
[12:13] Lu Mingze
They're all delicious.
[12:15] Head of College Labor Department
Next, the shredded carrots
and chopped spring onion.
[12:18] Head of College Labor Department
They're all here.
[12:19] Lu Mingfei
Did you guys have to chop all the carrots?
[12:22] Lu Mingfei
Are you... making hot sauce with
so much chopped spring onion?
[12:25] Head of College Labor Department
The mission didn't require
us to make hot sauce.
[12:28] Head of College Labor Department
To be honest, cooking is not our strong suit.
[12:30] Head of College Labor Department
That concludes our mission report.
[12:31] Head of College Labor Department
Do you have any other
requests, specialist Lu?
[12:34] Lu Mingfei
Uh... no. We've already troubled you enough.
[12:37] Head of College Labor Department
Then we will take our leave.
[12:38] Head of College Labor Department
There is a dedicated driver
waiting for you downstairs.
[12:40] Head of College Labor Department
He will take you to the
location of the next mission.
[12:42] Lu Mingfei
Okay. I'll change and go downstairs.
[12:45] Head of College Labor Department
Goodbye.
[12:47] Lu Mingfei
Bye.
[12:54] Aunt
Lu Mingfei.
[12:55] Lu Mingfei
Y-Yes?
[12:56] Aunt
Asking these mysterious
people to do housework...
[12:59] Aunt
Are you showing off to me?
[13:01] Lu Mingfei
O-Of course not—
[13:02] Aunt
You asked the special forces to chop carrots?
[13:04] Aunt
If that isn't showing off, what is it?
[13:06] Aunt
Today's the family dinner to celebrate
Lu Mingze studying abroad,
[13:09] Aunt
so you deliberately made such a scene!
[13:11] Aunt
You want to embarrass him, right?
[13:12] Lu Mingfei
How would I?
[13:14] Aunt
You just look down on Mingze!
[13:14] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I understand. So my aunt and
I don't live in the same world at all!
[13:18] Aunt
You just can't stand me ordering you around!
[13:19] Lu Mingfei (OS)
In my aunt's world, I am ruthless and dark,
[13:20] Aunt
You're great, you've got a bunch of people
to stir up trouble, you're ruthless!
[13:23] Lu Mingfei (OS)
look down on Lu Mingze,
and have Anguo's education.
[13:24] Aunt
Your family has been stepping
on me all my life! Bullying me!
[13:27] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I was cowardly before, so I should continue
to be cowardly and keep my head down.
[13:28] Aunt
I'm not as educated and
well-mannered as your mother.
[13:30] Aunt
Mingze is not as stylish and presentable
as you, without Anguo's education.
[13:31] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I should live my life
by keeping my head down
[13:34] Lu Mingfei (OS)
and quietly getting by.
[13:37] Aunt
I... I raised you for nothing.
[13:40] Lu Mingfei (OS)
That's...
[13:42] Lu Mingfei (OS)
Lu Mingze's...
[13:46] Lu Mingfei (OS)
Today is also my birthday.
[13:51] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I've never eaten...
[13:53] Lu Mingfei (OS)
a piece of birthday cake
that belongs to me in my life.
[13:59] Driver
A table for two has been
reserved at Aspasia tonight,
[14:01] Driver
and your dinner with Miss Chen
Wenwen will start at 6:30 PM.
[14:04] Lu Mingfei
Huh? Isn't there a mission tonight?
[14:06] Lu Mingfei
What dinner? I don't know.
[14:08] Driver
In accordance with the plan
of your deputy Chu Zihang,
[14:10] Driver
you will have dinner with
Miss Chen Wenwen at the Aspasia first.
[14:13] Driver
You have 40 minutes to eat,
[14:15] Driver
and at 19:00, I will take you to
the Runde Towers for your mission.
[14:18] Lu Mingfei
But Brother didn't tell me in advance.
[14:22] Lu Mingfei
Chen Wenwen.
[14:24] Lu Mingfei
Today is my birthday,
[14:27] Lu Mingfei
so Brother specially made
a reservation for me.
[14:32] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I think I understand why I always
act cowardly in front of my aunt.
[14:36] Lu Mingfei (OS)
It's because this simple three-bedroom
flat in the community is like my home.
[14:42] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I am different from other
people at Cassel College.
[14:44] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I don't want to be lonely.
[14:46] Lu Mingfei (OS)
I just want to have a home to
go back to like normal people.
[14:49] Lu Mingfei (OS)
But Cassel College is another path in life.
[14:51] Lu Mingfei (OS)
Once you start down this fork in the path,
[14:53] Lu Mingfei (OS)
the door to your past life is closed,
[14:55] Lu Mingfei (OS)
and you can only move forward,
never to return to the human world.
[15:01] Norma
The Runde Towers are twin buildings,
divided into tower A and tower B.
[15:04] Klein
The core objective is to break into the
21st floor of tower A of the Runde Towers,
[15:08] Klein
where the information should be located.
[15:10] Webber
The security of the Runde Towers
is actually very tight.
[15:13] Webber
The developer has contracted the
building's security to the Hunters,
[15:16] Webber
so the whole building
is full of their people.
[15:18] Webber
If the operation exceeds ten
minutes, the police will arrive,
[15:22] Webber
and the Hunters will have time
to move the information.
[15:25] Jurgen
So little time? The elevator
hasn't even arrived yet.
[15:28] Klein
We won't take the elevator.
[15:29] Klein
We'll take the direct route.
[15:39] Webber
Have you read the action plan?
[15:41] Chu Zihang
This mission is very easy.
I can handle it by myself.
[15:43] Chu Zihang
I don't need the labor department's help.
[15:45] Chu Zihang
They're too flashy.
[15:46] Webber
Obey the order.
[15:48] Webber
They will meet you at the door
of tower B in five minutes.
[15:51] Chu Zihang
Yes, sir.
[15:56] Tang Wei
Why... Why isn't he here yet?
[16:00] Tang Wei
Hello? Is there a courier
on the way to tower A?
[16:02] Security
No.
[16:04] Tang Wei
Is the mall in tower B closed?
[16:05] Security
Yes, in accordance with your
instructions, it's closed today.
[16:08] Security
Now we're the only ones in the building.
[16:09] Tang Wei
Good.
[16:14] Tang Wei
Ah... This weather is really uncomfortable.
[16:17] Tang Wei
Let's take one last look
at the Hunter website.
[16:22] Tang Wei
Mail?
[16:24] Tang Wei
"Bye-bye"?
[16:27] Tang Wei
The meaning of "bye-bye"...
[16:30] Tang Wei
can also be "farewell"?
[16:47] Lu Mingfei
Thanks.
[16:50] Lu Mingfei
I'm going... to such a high-end restaurant?
[16:56] Old butler
Greetings, Mr. Ricardo M. Lu.
[16:59] Lu Mingfei
Hello.
[17:00] Old butler
The Aspasia is reserved tonight.
[17:02] Old butler
You are our only VIP.
[17:05] Lu Mingfei
Thank you for your help.
[17:07] Old butler
Your guest is already seated
on the second floor.
[17:53] Chen Wenwen
Lu Mingfei.
[17:56] Lu Mingfei
Hello.
[18:12] Green Jersey Leader
Chu Zihang, all personnel are in position.
[18:16] Green Jersey Leader
When will the mission begin?
[18:18] Chu Zihang
You have three minutes to prepare.
[18:20] Chu Zihang
Professor Webber will send orders
directly to your headset.
[18:22] Chu Zihang
Park the van farther away,
so it does not attract attention.
[18:25] Green Jersey Leader
Understood.
[18:26] Chu Zihang
I'll go in first.
[18:32] Security
The mall is closed today.
[18:33] Chu Zihang
I'm a courier.
[18:34] Chu Zihang
Flower delivery.
[18:35] Chu Zihang
Tower B, suite 906.
[18:37] Security
Boss, flower delivery for
tower B, suite 906.
[18:39] Security
Do we let him in?
[18:40] Tang Wei
906?
[18:43] Tang Wei
They open tomorrow.
[18:44] Tang Wei
He's also a big client of ours.
[18:47] Tang Wei
Just one person?
[18:48] Security
Yes.
[18:49] Tang Wei
Keep an eye on him!
[18:50] Tang Wei
No one can enter tower A!
[18:52] Security
Understood.
[18:54] Tang Wei
He's not coming.
[18:58] Chu Zihang
I'm already in tower B.

Didn't we agree that the
mission would be at 7:25 PM?
[19:37] Lu Mingfei
But the dinner...
[19:39] Chen Wenwen
Lu Mingfei, what's the matter?
[19:41] Lu Mingfei
Sorry, something important
came up and I have to leave.
