    Welcome to Lee's Detective Agency.
[00:03] ---
    We accept all manner of requests
[00:05] ---
    which sometimes include special cases
[00:08] ---
    like detective work.
[00:09] ---
    Reality can be far more
    surprising than fiction.
[00:12] ---
    But we'll let the police handle
    the actual investigation.
[00:18] ---
    Detectives like us must stay in the shadows
[00:20] ---
    because the light will rob us of our secrecy.
[00:24] ---
    The same goes for everyone.
[00:26] ---
    Being placed under the spotlight
[00:27] ---
    will make people look different.
[00:53] ---
    The day just ended for someone.
[00:58] ---
    And the day just started for somebody.
[01:04] ---
    In empty streets I walked about
[01:09] ---
    Confessing my boredom out loud.
[01:15] ---
    I wanna keep feeling it
[01:16] ---
    But you won't forget about this
[01:21] ---
    Knock Three Times, before requesting.
[01:25] ---
    I wanna keep touching it
[01:27] ---
    Trouble's no longer a thing
[01:31] ---
    When a future
[01:34] ---
    You just waved to me.
[01:37] ---
    I wanna keep feeling it
[01:38] ---
    But you won't forget about this
[01:43] ---
    Knock Three Times, before requesting.
[01:47] ---
    I wanna keep touching it
[01:49] ---
    Trouble's no longer a thing
[01:53] ---
    When a future
[01:55] ---
    You just waved to me.

    A Minute of Investigation
[02:27] ---
    The boss just got some new art.
[02:30] ---
    This painting looks fake.
[02:41] ---
    Look.
[02:55] ---
    I guess you saw through the disguise.
[03:06] ---
    Please, come in.
[03:16] ---
    Excuse me.
[03:23] ---
    The Lungmen Guard Department
    has just received a report.
[03:25] ---
    Mr. Meng, a high ranking
    banker, has gone missing.
[03:35] ---
    Who is she?
[03:37] ---
    You met Mr. Meng at the bar last time.
[03:41] ---
    I'll let Mrs. Meng take over from here.
[03:44] ---
    But I thought this case
[03:45] ---
    is being investigated by the LGD.
[03:50] ---
    He kept a secret lover.
[03:55] ---
    The two of them escaped
    during the investigation.
[04:02] ---
    How did you learn that he left on his own?
[04:08] ---
    These
[04:10] ---
    are the evidences.
[04:14] ---
    The plane tickets they bought.
[04:18] ---
    His bank records.
[04:21] ---
    And his receipts for buying jewelry.
[04:25] ---
    Why did things end up this way?
[04:28] ---
    So what do you want us to do for you?
[04:33] ---
    He deposited our shared assets
[04:36] ---
    into an encrypted gold card
[04:38] ---
    and placed it at Lee's DA for safekeeping.
[04:41] ---
    The money.
[04:42] ---
    I want it back.
[04:46] ---
    I'm sorry, ma'am.
[04:48] ---
    A case can only be terminated by
    the original client in person.
[04:54] ---
    I understand.
[04:55] ---
    It's alright, thank you.
[04:58] ---
    I'll just sell the house. That
    will keep me alive for a while.
[05:02] ---
    WAIT!
[05:06] ---
    I guess we can make an exception.
[05:32] ---
    The half that doesn't belong to me
[05:34] ---
    will go to the LGD.
[05:36] ---
    That will be it for today. Farewell.
[05:39] ---
    WAIT!
[05:48] ---
    Mrs. Meng,
[05:50] ---
    we'll need you to sign a few forms.
[05:53] ---
    It's part of our agency's contract process.
[05:59] ---
    What should we have for dinner tonight?
[06:09] ---
    Why don't you stay for dinner?
[06:11] ---
    We're having chocolate coral fin tonight.
[06:18] ---
    That's so kind of you,
[06:20] ---
    but I really have other matters to attend to.
[06:26] ---
    What is it, young man?
[06:29] ---
    This smells familiar.
[06:31] ---
    What are you doing, boy?
[06:33] ---
    Well, old lady,
[06:34] ---
    you've consumed a chemical
[06:36] ---
    that smells a little like ethanol
[06:38] ---
    except that it isn't.
[06:39] ---
    It's actually a product of loxic kohl.
[06:42] ---
    Your coat is brand new,
[06:45] ---
    and you're allergic to animal fur.
[06:47] ---
    That explains the slight
    rash under your ears.
[06:51] ---
    Why would someone wearing fur coats
    all the time be allergic to it?
[06:56] ---
    Despite being married to a renowned banker,
[06:58] ---
    the first digit of your right
    index finger is callused.
[07:02] ---
    I guess being an assassin
[07:03] ---
    forces you to hold blades all the time.
[07:06] ---
    And most importantly,
[07:07] ---
    you are a man!
[07:15] ---
    SHUT THE DOOR!
[07:19] ---
    I should have killed you all from the start
[07:23] ---
    and not put up with this stupid acting.
[07:39] ---
    Have a taste of my stimpack.
[08:21] ---
    The LGD Special Inspection Unit has found
    the body of the missing banker Mr. Meng.
[08:25] ---
    The suspect murderer has been apprehended.
[08:29] ---
    The motivation of this crime is money.
[08:32] ---
    We now go live with our correspondent and
    Officer Hoshiguma at the crime scene.
[08:36] ---
    So that fox
[08:37] ---
    also disguised as this lady.
[08:39] ---
    Aak.
[08:40] ---
    If it weren't for you, that fox would
    have deceived the old man as well.
[08:44] ---
    Hey! Where's Aak?
[08:48] ---
    I think he went to the mini-mart.
[08:58] ---
    To be continued...
[09:04] ---
    Mrs. Meng requested Lee's D.A
[09:06] ---
    to return the gold card
[09:07] ---
    that Mr. Meng entrusted the
    Agency for safekeeping.
[09:10] ---
    According to our partnership
    contract with Mr. Meng,
[09:12] ---
    the gold card can only be
    returned to Mr. Meng in person.
[09:15] ---
    Should special circumstances apply,
[09:17] ---
    the requestor must first prove
    that she is Mrs. Meng herself.
