**[00:25] ---**
*Good to see you, everyone!*
**[00:26] ---**
* Don't forget to*
* click the follow button, all right?*
**[00:30] ---**
*Lu Guang, say something!*
**[00:33] ---**
*Hi. Follow us.*
**[00:35] ---**
*Hi. Follow us.*
**[00:37] (Flashback) ---**
First rule,
**[00:38] (Flashback) ---**
you get 12 hours.
**[00:39] (Flashback) ---**
Second,
**[00:40] (Flashback) ---**
follow my lead, and change nothing.
**[00:44] (Flashback) ---**
Third?
**[00:45] (Flashback) ---**
The past and future...
**[00:47] (Flashback) ---**
...must not be changed.
**[00:48] (Flashback) ---**
...must not be changed.
**[00:49] ---**
*Here's the mission.*
**[00:50] ---**
* Secure the key financial data*
* before the day after tomorrow,*
**[00:54] ---**
* when the Que de Games*
* quarterly report is released.*
**[00:56] (Flashback) ---**
A female corpse was found
in the river last night.
**[00:59] (Flashback) ---**
According to police,
**[01:01] (Flashback) ---**
the deceased worked in
the financial department of Que de Games.
**[01:04] (Flashback) ---**
That piece of trash!
**[01:07] (Flashback) ---**
You won't get away with this!
**[01:09] (Flashback) ---**
Die! Die! I'm gonna kill
every last one of you!
**[01:13] (Flashback) ---**
Chen Bin!
**[01:14] (Flashback) ---**
The seventh victim's page is
missing from the case file.
**[01:17] (Flashback) ---**
I was terrified.
**[01:19] (Flashback) ---**
I thought I'd already killed her,
but it was someone else.
**[01:22] ---**
*According to our latest intel,*
**[01:25] ---**
* Liu Min was not present*
* at Emma's time of death.*
**[01:30] ---**
*At about 1:30 a.m. last night...*
**[01:33] ---**
*a masked man broke into Xu Shanshan's home*
**[01:35] ---**
*and attacked her.*
**[01:40] (Flashback) ---**
This time tomorrow,
**[01:42] (Flashback) ---**
come and find me.
**[01:44] ---**
*Give him a few hints.*
**[01:46] ---**
*Make him curious,*
**[01:49] ---**
*and lure him into a trap.*
**[01:54] (Flashback) ---**
See you again soon.
**[01:57] (Flashback) ---**
When the time comes,
**[01:58] (Flashback) ---**
you'd better not play dirty again.
**[02:01] (Flashback) ---**
You know,
**[02:02] (Flashback) ---**
if I did change something,
**[02:05] (Flashback) ---**
would everything else change too?
**[02:08] (Flashback) ---**
So there was a witness.
How unexpectedly interesting.
**[02:15] (Flashback) ---**
That tone! What if Liu Min
isn't the real killer...
**[02:17] (Flashback) ---**
but just another puppet?!
**[02:19] (Flashback) ---**
Are you a friend of his?
**[02:24] ---**
*You can...*
**[02:27] ---**
*possess people too?*
**[02:35] (Flashback) ---**
Lu Guang.
**[02:38] ---**
*It seems*
**[02:40] ---**
*that everything is changing.*
**[02:41] (Flashback) ---**
Qiao Ling!
**[02:44] ---**
*Death is unavoidable...*
**[02:51] (Flashback) ---**
Lu Guang!
**[02:53] ---**
*Maybe the best we can do*
**[02:57] ---**
*is just get it over with...*
**[03:03] (Flashback) ---**
Lu Guang!
**[05:04] ---**
We've been here all night. I'm passing out.
**[05:08] ---**
Still no word from Captain Xiao?
**[05:13] ---**
Lu Guang? Lu Guang!
**[05:16] ---**
Hey, you don't seem to be getting it.
**[05:20] ---**
I'm the one who decides
if your friend lives or dies.
**[05:27] ---**
His name's Lu Guang, huh?
**[05:30] ---**
So he's the one who trapped me
in the darkroom with you.
**[05:35] ---**
Then you were controlling Liu Min too.
**[05:37] ---**
Who are you?
**[05:38] ---**
What do you want?!
**[05:41] ---**
With the way you're yelling, I guess
you're trying to alert the cops outside?
**[05:46] ---**
But what does that mean
for your friend Qiao Ling?
**[05:49] ---**
She could wind up in jail!
**[05:51] ---**
Let's wait until six
**[05:52] ---**
and then check in.
**[05:54] ---**
*This is Dispatch. 0814, do you copy?*
**[05:57] ---**
Look, there they are.
**[06:00] ---**
Go for 0814.
**[06:02] ---**
* The suspect tried to commit suicide*
* and is en route to the hospital.*
**[06:05] ---**
* Escort the persons of interest*
* back to the station.*
**[06:13] ---**
* First things first,*
* I have to save Lu Guang.*
**[06:18] ---**
*Wait for an opening,*
**[06:20] ---**
*and then disarm her!*
**[06:23] ---**
I'll do whatever you want.
**[06:24] ---**
Just let them go!
**[06:28] ---**
Now that's the spirit!
**[06:31] ---**
But before we can negotiate,
**[06:34] ---**
you must answer me honestly.
**[06:37] ---**
You'll have to regain my trust...
**[06:42] ---**
Wh-What do you want to know?
**[06:44] ---**
Tell me,
**[06:45] ---**
what exactly is your power?
**[06:49] ---**
If you're not sure how to start,
**[06:52] ---**
why don't you tell me how
you go about activating it?
**[06:55] ---**
Clapping, perhaps?
**[07:01] ---**
You really had me going for a while.
**[07:07] ---**
But lucky me,
**[07:09] ---**
I caught your sleight of hand
before you vanished.
**[07:14] ---**
Besides clapping,
**[07:15] ---**
Besides clapping,
**[07:16] ---**
what else do you need
to activate your power?
**[07:22] ---**
For example,
**[07:23] ---**
is there a limit to how far
you can teleport?
**[07:29] ---**
I advise you not to lie.
**[07:34] ---**
My power allows me to teleport
anywhere I can visualize.
**[07:39] ---**
But the distance depends
on how focused I am.
**[07:43] ---**
That's why I needed an enclosed space
**[07:46] ---**
to trap you back then.
**[07:48] ---**
Didn't I say not to lie?!
**[07:51] ---**
Perhaps your first punishment wasn't
enough to make you stop playing dirty.
**[07:55] ---**
So I will give you another.
**[08:01] ---**
See, you can fool me,
**[08:03] ---**
but you can't fool her!
**[08:10] ---**
Stop!
**[08:16] ---**
So your power must be linked to photos too!
**[08:18] ---**
You could teleport in that room,
**[08:20] ---**
but here, you have to run to stop me.
**[08:22] ---**
And the primary difference
between that room and this one is
**[08:26] ---**
that it was surrounded by photos.
**[08:30] ---**
Bingo!
**[08:31] ---**
How interesting!
**[08:34] ---**
I'd love to steal it from you
**[08:36] ---**
and experience it myself!
**[08:39] ---**
Steal it from me?!
**[08:43] ---**
*Calm down.*
**[08:46] ---**
* Remember the techniques*
* Master Si Wen taught me.*
**[08:48] ---**
*Remember the techniques
Master Si Wen taught me.*
**[08:49] (Flashback) ---**
To disarm an opponent,
**[08:51] (Flashback) ---**
you must focus your efforts on
their joints to restrict their movements.
**[08:55] (Flashback) ---**
For example, do not grasp the arm
but instead the wrist.
**[08:59] (Flashback) ---**
You see, if you grasp the arm,
it leaves room for them to maneuver.
**[09:04] (Flashback) ---**
Xiaoshi, attack me.
**[09:09] (Flashback) ---**
When fear controls you,
you retreat instinctively.
**[09:12] (Flashback) ---**
But retreating will give your opponent
all the room they need.
**[09:16] (Flashback) ---**
When facing an opponent is inevitable,
**[09:18] (Flashback) ---**
only by confronting them head-on
can you gain the upper hand.
**[09:34] ---**
Mr. Cheng? Mr. Lu?
**[09:54] ---**
That's enough fun for today.
**[09:56] ---**
See you again soon,
**[09:59] ---**
my new friend.
**[10:01] ---**
*Mr. Cheng?*
**[10:10] ---**
Wh-What's going on?
**[10:14] ---**
Qiao Ling—
**[10:14] ---**
*Mr. Cheng! Mr. Lu!*
**[10:24] ---**
Wait, Cheng Xiaoshi, where are you going?
**[10:27] ---**
Mr. Cheng, there's been a new development.
**[10:29] ---**
We need you to come with us.
**[10:30] ---**
He's been stabbed!
**[10:31] ---**
Mr. Cheng?!
**[10:32] ---**
Call an ambulance!
**[10:34] ---**
*Drop the knife!*
**[10:34] ---**
*Don't move!*
**[10:35] ---**
Hands where we can see them!
**[10:38] ---**
**Go for Dispatch.**
**[10:38] ---**
Cheng Xiaoshi...
**[10:40] ---**
* Send backup and an ambulance!*
* There's been a stabbing!*
**[10:42] ---**
What's going on right now?
**[10:43] ---**
* Victim has multiple stab wounds*
* and severe blood loss.*
**[10:46] ---**
*Suspect is under control.*
**[10:47] ---**
Where's Lu Guang?
**[10:49] ---**
It's gonna be okay, Qiao Ling.
**[10:53] ---**
Please, just save him!
**[11:16] ---**
Prep for surgery, immediately!
**[11:18] ---**
Yes, Doctor.
**[11:19] ---**
Heart rate dropping. Blood oxygen at 60.
Applying pressure now.
**[11:24] ---**
I swear, I'm telling the truth!
**[11:27] ---**
I didn't stab anyone!
**[11:29] ---**
He was posing as my friend!
**[11:31] ---**
He can possess people!
**[11:33] ---**
Liu Min was being controlled too!
**[11:38] ---**
Your friend, you said?
**[11:39] ---**
Who's your accomplice?!
**[11:41] ---**
Lu Guang is like family to me.
**[11:43] ---**
Why would I want to hurt him?!
**[11:47] ---**
Heavy bleeding here. Suction.
**[11:50] ---**
Clamps.
**[11:50] ---**
Yes, Doctor.
**[11:51] ---**
*One more thing...*
**[11:53] ---**
I saw him make Emma jump!
**[11:54] ---**
But why were *you* there?
**[11:58] ---**
I...
**[12:00] ---**
Listen, kid, you're just stalling
with these stories.
**[12:04] ---**
There were only three of you in that room,
**[12:06] ---**
the weapon was found in your hand,
**[12:09] ---**
and by your own admission,
the girl is innocent.
**[12:12] ---**
Who else could it be?
**[12:14] ---**
The person you said
posed as your friend doesn't exist!
**[12:25] ---**
Please contact Captain Xiao.
He can explain everything.
**[12:31] ---**
Guess we should call the captain.
**[12:33] ---**
How the hell could we have known?
**[12:35] ---**
It was only a few minutes.
**[12:37] ---**
And we stormed in the moment
we saw what he was doing.
**[12:41] ---**
Yeah, what's up?
**[12:42] ---**
We got the whole thing on tape.
**[12:42] ---**
Who? We're in the ER waiting room.
**[12:45] ---**
It was a few minutes!
**[12:46] ---**
How the hell did he strangle himself?
**[12:52] ---**
Charging defibrillator.
**[12:54] ---**
Three.
**[12:56] ---**
Two.
**[12:59] ---**
Clear!
**[13:03] ---**
Charging again.
**[13:05] ---**
Three.
**[13:07] ---**
Two.
**[13:10] ---**
Clear!
**[13:27] ---**
One weird thing after the other.
**[13:30] ---**
Before I forget, Chen Bin,
**[13:31] ---**
did you inform his family?
**[13:33] ---**
I contacted them, sir.
**[13:35] ---**
But when I did...
**[13:36] ---**
I'm telling you,
the Metaverse is gonna be big.
**[13:39] ---**
Li, you mark my words.
**[13:42] ---**
Don't forget you owe me one, got it?
**[13:46] ---**
Okay, okay.
**[13:48] ---**
Your phone's ringing.
**[13:52] ---**
Yeah, hello?
**[13:57] ---**
I said this already!
**[13:59] ---**
If he's still breathing, don't contact me!
**[14:02] ---**
What? Who was that?
**[14:04] ---**
Is something wrong?
**[14:05] ---**
Nah, it's just Liu Min, my dumb son.
**[14:07] ---**
Nothing important.
**[14:10] ---**
Hey, Mr. Qian.
**[14:12] ---**
That troublemaker ended up
in the hospital. Are you free?
**[14:16] ---**
I am now.
**[14:18] ---**
Yes.
**[14:20] ---**
Okay.
**[14:24] ---**
If anything comes up, take care of it.
**[14:26] ---**
Money isn't an object
if that's what it takes.
**[14:29] ---**
Let's hope that's enough.
**[14:34] ---**
If that moron were
half the man his brother is,
**[14:37] ---**
maybe he'd be worth this effort!
**[14:39] ---**
Oh, Liu Xiao is about
to get back, isn't he?
**[14:41] ---**
Forget them both.
Back to what's important.
**[14:56] ---**
Here are your glasses, boss.
**[14:59] ---**
Min Liu's in the hospital again.
**[15:02] ---**
Find out which one.
**[15:04] ---**
We've gotta move.
**[15:05] ---**
Huh?
**[15:06] ---**
On it, boss!
**[15:07] ---**
Smells like money already.
**[15:21] ---**
I got you take-out.
**[15:24] ---**
Thank you.
**[15:29] ---**
Just leave it when you finish.
I'll clean it up later.
**[15:34] ---**
Wait!
**[15:36] ---**
Have you heard about Lu Guang?
**[15:40] ---**
He didn't make it, sorry.
**[16:03] ---**
*You boiled the noodles for too long.*
**[16:05] ---**
* Guys' Dorm Soup?*
* More like Guys' Dorm Sludge.*
**[16:08] ---**
* Leave the bowl in the sink.*
* I'll wash it later.*
**[16:12] ---**
*Oh, misbehaving again, are you?*
**[16:15] ---**
*Come on, get down from there.*
**[16:16] ---**
*The wind messed it up.*
**[16:18] ---**
*I haven't seen it.*
**[16:19] ---**
* You've been at it all day.*
* Can you give it a rest?*
**[16:22] ---**
* Hey, idiot, the camera will*
* get wet if you put it there.*
**[16:26] ---**
* I already washed this last night.*
* Why did you wash it again?*
**[16:30] ---**
*You idiot, that's Qiao Ling's mail.*
**[16:32] ---**
*Don't try and change the past, got it?*
**[16:42] ---**
That's it.
**[16:44] ---**
If I go back, I can
change the past and fix this.
**[16:48] ---**
A photo!
**[16:50] ---**
If I can get a photo, I can save Lu Guang!
**[16:53] ---**
Cheng Xiaoshi?
**[16:55] ---**
You're free to go.
**[16:59] ---**
Captain Xiao told me to come get you.
**[17:05] ---**
So, um...
**[17:06] ---**
they filled you in on what happened, right?
**[17:14] ---**
There's still a lot to do.
**[17:16] ---**
Get some rest while you can.
**[17:33] ---**
Cheng Xiaoshi, can you get that for me?
**[17:35] ---**
Oh, sure.
**[17:38] ---**
*Hi, honey.*
**[17:40] ---**
*What time will you be home tonight?*
**[17:42] ---**
*Your daughter's antsy to see you.*
**[17:44] ---**
I might not be tonight.
**[17:46] ---**
The case isn't over yet.
**[17:48] ---**
* Captain Qian is here.*
* He stopped by to see you.*
**[17:50] ---**
He is? That's out of the blue.
**[17:53] ---**
Uh, let him know
I'll call him when I can later.
**[17:57] ---**
All right, I have to go now. I'm driving.
**[18:01] ---**
*Promise me you'll get some rest!*
**[18:02] ---**
Of course, honey. Love you.
**[18:04] ---**
*Love you too.*
**[18:06] ---**
I never pictured you having a kid.
**[18:09] ---**
Well, I technically don't yet.
**[18:12] ---**
When was this photo taken?
**[18:14] ---**
Oh, two years ago,
after we got our marriage license.
**[18:18] ---**
Why?
**[18:19] ---**
N-No reason.
**[18:23] ---**
Time flies.
**[18:25] ---**
It's already been two years, and we
still haven't had the wedding ceremony yet.
**[18:28] ---**
It's already been two years, and we
still haven't had the wedding ceremony yet.
**[18:30] ---**
*Two years ago?*
**[18:34] ---**
*If I go back two years...*
**[18:36] ---**
*I might be able to change everything.*
**[18:45] (Flashback) ---**
You idiot, how many times have I told you?
**[18:47] (Flashback) ---**
Don't change the past,
and don't ask about the future.
**[18:59] ---**
Officer Chen, here's your phone.
**[19:01] ---**
Thanks.
**[19:02] ---**
Oh, by the way,
**[19:04] ---**
I bought you a change of clothes.
**[19:08] ---**
You can't see Lu Guang looking like that.
**[19:15] ---**
Thank you, Officer Chen.
**[19:25] ---**
This is it.
**[19:27] ---**
Okay, are you ready?
**[19:30] ---**
Yeah.
**[20:02] ---**
Lu Guang, you're alive?!
**[20:05] ---**
Didn't mean to disappoint you, you idiot.
**[20:07] ---**
I-I didn't mean it like that!
**[20:10] ---**
Get out. I need to rest.
**[20:12] ---**
Captain Xiao! That officer
told me he didn't make it!
**[20:15] ---**
I told my men to spread that false info
as a smokescreen for Lu Guang.
**[20:19] ---**
In actuality, Liu Min is the one that died.
**[20:23] ---**
During a break in his interrogation
this morning, he strangled himself.
**[20:30] (Flashback) ---**
Charging defibrillator.
**[20:32] (Flashback) ---**
Three.
**[20:33] (Flashback) ---**
Two.
**[20:35] (Flashback) ---**
Clear!
**[20:36] (Flashback) ---**
Charging again.
**[20:38] (Flashback) ---**
Three.
**[20:39] (Flashback) ---**
Two.
**[20:40] (Flashback) ---**
Clear!
**[20:44] (Flashback) ---**
In all my years as a doctor,
I've never seen anything like it.
**[20:49] ---**
Liu Min fractured his cricoid cartilage
in a matter of minutes.
**[20:54] ---**
The surgery couldn't save him.
**[20:56] ---**
But why'd that guy keep it
a secret even from me?
**[20:59] (Flashback) ---**
Captain said to spread false info.
**[21:01] (Flashback) ---**
No way should I tell a suspect the truth.
**[21:03] (Flashback) ---**
Good job!
**[21:04] ---**
When I asked you in the car
if they filled you in,
**[21:08] ---**
you nodded, so I figured
they'd already told you.
**[21:11] ---**
Oh man, Officer Chen,
**[21:14] ---**
can you please try to be
more direct from now on?
**[21:16] ---**
If that was supposed to be a hint,
it was way too vague.
**[21:19] ---**
Cheng Xiaoshi?
**[21:21] ---**
They told me everything.
**[21:24] ---**
I know now it was me who stabbed Lu Guang.
**[21:31] ---**
We ran through everything before you
got here, and we have a working theory.
**[21:35] ---**
If the real murderer has
the power to possess others,
**[21:38] ---**
like during Qiao Ling's attack on Lu Guang,
**[21:40] ---**
it's feasible that he caused
Liu Min's unusual suicide.
**[21:43] ---**
What?!
**[21:44] ---**
He's dead?!
**[21:46] ---**
I don't care about his death.
What'll they do with his things?
**[21:48] ---**
It goes to his family, doesn't it?
**[21:50] ---**
It's not that simple.
**[21:51] ---**
He's also a suspect
in a serial murder case.
**[21:55] ---**
They've confiscated his belongings.
**[21:58] ---**
I'm in the process
**[21:59] ---**
of figuring out how to get them back.
**[22:03] ---**
I don't care if it's not simple!
**[22:06] ---**
No matter the cost,
**[22:09] ---**
make sure you get his damn phone!
**[22:12] ---**
If we're gonna catch this guy, we have to
focus on the clues in Liu Min's case.
**[22:16] ---**
Let's see if we can find something out
from Liu Min's recent photos.
**[22:21] ---**
Lu Guang, be careful!
Remember you're healing!
**[22:24] ---**
I agree. You need to rest.
**[22:26] ---**
Fine.
**[22:37] ---**
Isn't that Officer Chen's phone?!
**[22:39] ---**
Chen Bin?!
**[22:40] ---**
Shit!
**[22:42] ---**
Captain Xiao, wait for me!
**[22:53] ---**
O-On second thought,
I should stay with Lu Guang.
**[23:01] ---**
* Captain Xiao, it's me.*
* Have you found Officer Chen?*
**[23:04] ---**
No.
**[23:05] ---**
It's like he vanished.
**[23:15] ---**
This isn't like him.
**[23:17] ---**
When he picked you up earlier,
did anything seem off?
