Detective Chinatown 2 (唐人街探案2)

"The tao produced one; One produced two; Two produced three; Three produced all things."

"Tao te ching by laozi"

a dog killed him,

but not this dog!

The real murderer is...

Beat me to it again!

Purpose of your trip to America?

Why are you here?

To... attend a wedding...

"Chin fong"

"chin fong"

surprise!

Old chin!

Welcome to New York!

I lent the helicopter out,

so this'll have to do.

I'm hot, aren't 1?

You are really...

Really hot?

Really disgusting!

College has not made you any smarter!

Music!

Go!

Where is ah xiang?

Waiting at the cocktail party.

I'll show you around for a couple of days,

empire state building, statue of Liberty...

I wanna check out queen's manuscript.

Qui yin? What?

Ellery queen...

This queen guy's everywhere

and now he's in New York too?

Hooking up already?

What are you talking about..

Do you know crimaster?

What is this?

Crimaster, an app.

It is the community for all the detectives in the world.

A lot of people upload real cases

for others to crack,

and in some countries, the success rate of cases solved

has gone up quite a bit thanks to it.

How come your name's there?

That is the ranking of detectives...

You are ranked no.2?

In he nan?

In the world.

What about my ranking?

You're not on it.

So? Without me in the ppt...

App...

Can you call it a ranking?

A world wide ranking?

You can't be in it...

You must correctly answer 99 reasoning questions

in order to join the community.

Are you questioning my 1q?

Question number 1...

Sick!

Whoever plays this kind of game is just sick!

Old chin,

everyone is waiting for you.

The reception is here?

Yes, let's go...

They... are here for the wedding too?

Of course, they are all friends and relatives of ah xiang.

Tomorrow we are going to celebrate together.

Who's that?

Ah xiang's cousin.

How about this white guy?

Ah xiang's ex-boyfriend.

You know

before she met me

she used to be quite adventurous

and he is?

Ah xiang's cousin...

Japanese?

Half Chinese and half Japanese.

And this one?

Ah xiang's grandmother.

She lives in San ya,

she's tanned.

- You... - Why do you

have so many questions?

First you should get over the jet lag...

Do I have too many questions or do you have a problem?

- What about me? - You are getting married tomorrow?

- Yes. - Where is ah xiang?

- She... - See!

Every time she's mentioned, your eyes shift to the left,

a classic sign of lying.

There is absolutely no wedding atmosphere

because if there was people would not be ignoring the "groom".

And most importantly,

you always check the calendar before doing anything even taking a shower,

so tell me how come you chose tomorrow to get married?

"Avoid wedding, burial, and house moving"

you tricked me here for a case, didn't you?

How do you know?

The armed doormen imply that the owner of this house

is an individual of certain importance.

Ah xiang's "cousin" is using a portable server

which processes information 10 times faster than a regular computer.

She's using linux commands,

which reminds me of

the Hong Kong girl hacker Kiko, ranked no.5 on crimaster.

She solves her cases by hacking into police database

and stealing information from it.

She can remove every penny from your account.

My account is penniless!

M37k combat knife,

b9 belt

and danner combat boots

are all usual us military equipment.

Ranked no.9 that must be

us veteran detective

wild bull Billy,

who promotes the use of extreme violence

to solve crimes.

So?

I can beat up 10 of him with my mojia boxing!

I saw...

I saw a man,

even the Indonesian psychic detective aaimali kunana

can tell that you are lying!

Ranked no.7, she relies on divination

rather than reasoning

to solve a puzzle.

Can she beat my dowsing rod?

He needs no introduction. Noda hiroshi from Japan,

the one who's competing with me for the no.2 spot.

So... how did you infer that?

No need to infer.

He thinks he's hot

and posts way too many nude selfies.

I cannot beat this one.

What about the preserved egg?

Who's the preserved egg?

The no.1.

The no.1, "q",

is an anonymous user in Canada.

I'm not sure that he or she is in this crowd.

Plus, during the last 3 minutes

they have all checked out the hallway.

1 time,

5 times,

3 times,

2 times.

Everyone is obviously waiting for a very important person...

The owner of this house is not hard to look up...

Uncle seven - wu zhiyuan,

the highest ranked leader of all Chinese gangs,

the "godfather of Chinatown".

His grandson wu zhihao was murdered four days ago.

You are not the one who asked me to be here,

he is, right?

I knew I couldn't fool you...

You know I hate being lied to.

Old chin,

ah xiang is married!

I'm not the groom!

She is married to this guy!

He is not as handsome as me, not as slim as me,

not as elegant as me.

He's such a playboy and

dresses like a peasant!

Just because he's richer than me!

So I need to have a lot of money

to win ah xiang back!

So... what does this have to do with me?

5 million!

Dollars!

If we solved

uncle seven's grandson's murder,

if you get 2.5 million, I get 2.5 million.

To hell with your 2.5.

Old chin!

Are you really going to abandon me?

- I'm your uncle! - Cousin.

We got the same blood running through our veins!

I'm gonna go see queen's manuscript!

Old chin!

Do you know

how much ah xiang means to me?

I would die for her!

I will

never love another woman.

Ah xiang?

Officer chen!

Welcome!

Mr. lu,

did you invite these clowns?

They may look like nobodies,

but you have no idea how hard

it was to get them all to come -

you are looking at a real

"world detective contest".

Why is there a kid here?

Officer,

I am the detective,
