[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!

    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?
