🔍 MY ROOMMATE IS A DETECTIVE 🔍

🔍 Episode 20 🔍

"Modelled after the shape of a pumpkin,

in the pot is fragrant tea with melted snow."

This is Chen Mingyuan's pumpkin pot.

It's kind of valuable.

Inspector Qiao.

What brings you here?

Come on. Please take a seat.

Please take a seat.

Please.

I have been

investigating a case

which may have something to do with your son Chu Ming.

So I want to have a chat with him.

What case?

Don't get nervous.

He's not in trouble.

I just want to ask him for some information.

He just returned to China

less than a month ago.

From which country?

Who is this?

My name is

Lu Yao.

He's my colleague in the police station.

You are the great detective mentioned in Xinyue Daily's stories.

Um.

I am flattered.

This is not worth mentioning.

You're not an old guy as the newspaper said.

You are so young,

good looking

with standout temperament.

You are not frivolous at all.

Why would the newspaper make things up?

The person who wrote the articles has some problem here.

Is Chu Ming home?

No, he just moved out.

Where was he before he returned to China?

He had lived in Paris for ten years.

When he came back this time, he has become a completely different person.

He got rid of all the bad habits and dispositions.

The elders of the family are all

very pleased with his changes.

If it's Ok,

can we visit him?

Sure.

Wait for a moment.

Paris.

Everything was too great to be just coincidence.

His past history,

where he used to stay,

the timing to return to China.

Why do you suddenly become so excited?

The Chu family has a warehouse

which Mr. Bai

has been wanting to buy for a long time.

So if Chu Ming is really the murderer,

what are you going to do with him?

Do what I should do.

What if his dad wants to give you the warehouse?

Then I'll let him go.

What kind of expression is that?

Do you really think I'm that kind of person?

What if Mr. Bai intimidates you to let him go?

Don't worry, he won't.

None of you know him.

Everyone knows that opium makes great profit.

Among all the mafia leaders in Shanghai,

Mr. Bai is the only one who doesn't do opium business.

He even forbids all his men from trading it.

Why?

He said that opium will harm China.

So he can't make filthy lucre no matter what.

It sounds like Mr. Bai

has some good character.

Of course.

Otherwise why would I

be so loyal to him?

Inspector.

I just called my son.

This is his current address.

Thank you.

You press the doorbell.

What are you doing? -Stay away from it!

I was bitten by this kind of dog when I was a kid.

I have been traumatized!

A dog of this size?

Are you kidding me?

I don't care.

Shoot it!

Are you crazy?

Get off me.

Don't move, don't move!

Don't move.

Give me the gun.

Don't! -Get off!

Don't move! -What are you doing?

Stop it, stop it!

Lu Yao! Lu Yao!

Lele!

Who are you looking for?

Mr. Chu, I'm with the police.

I came today to investigate a case.

Inspector Qiao, right?

My dad called me.

Come on in.

By the way, sorry.

Do you mind changing your shoes?

I have severe mysophobia and OCD.

Sorry.

Take a seat and wait for a while, will you?

I still have a bowl to do.

I will be with you after I do the dish.

Take a seat first.

Tea or coffee?

Wine, of course!

'62 Lafite!

That's a good year.

Good wine should be

shared with someone who really knows wine.

Come on.

I lived in Bordeaux for two years.

To be honest,

for a drinker,

it's paradise.

Please try some.

I don't drink alcohol during the day.

I will, I will!

A toast for our friendship.

You speak French?

I spent half a year in Paris before.

That's a good place.

To your health.

To your health.

Take a seat first.

I don't think it's good for your health to drink wine right after taking medicine.

I'm used to it. It's OK.

Inspector Qiao, if you have any questions, just ask me directly.

Mr. He, the editor of Xinyue Daily

suddenly died in his office last night.

Editor?

He Youwei?

Yes.

He was in Shanghai News

before he went to Xinyue Daily.

Our investigation found

he had something to do with Ye Ying's murder case of her husband ten years ago.

I lived abroad for so many years

Just to escape from this thing.

I didn't expect there was another accident

right after I returned to China.

It seems that I will never be able to hide from it.

Where were you

last night between ten and eleven o'clock?

At home.

All night?

Of course.

Can anyone prove it?

You can see I live alone in this house.

Why is there no maid in your house?

I spent so many years abroad

all alone.

I am used to this life style.

What was the relationship

between you and Ye Ying?

We were friends.

Simple as that?

If you don't believe me,

believe the newspapers.

I have nothing to explain.

What are you excited about?

I was just asking you some questions.

Of course I am excited!

That bastard He Youwei

distorted facts and manipulated public opinion.

Such a person should have died long time ago.

Let me tell you.

If I had a gun right now

I would have shot him to death.

Motivation for murder, yes.

Alibi,

no.

So what?

If you guys think I killed someone,

come up with evidence.

If there is no evidence,

let's take this to court.

I don't believe you can call white black.

I really don't.
