Sparrow

Where did you go tonight?

Before my uncle returns,

I won't answer any of your questions.

If we want to interrogate Ms. Xu, we need evidence.

The next time you find a witness,

please find a smarter one.

What did you see just now?

I didn't see anything.

Why was this necklace

thrown in the ally of Qiufengdu and Shikumen?

Tell me the truth. Is it yours?

I let somebody else borrow it.

Episode 41

I thought I would never get to see the sky again.

Secretary Qian?

Yes. He's been out since noon. He still hasn't returned.

Su Sanxing, immediately send out people to search for him.

Yes!

Find a way to hide him.

Before you send the telegram, don't let him be seen outside.

These are two fake copies of the Return to Zero Plan. Hide them in Secretary Qian's house.

His house is number 37 on Qingyuan Street.

You walked out of Service Office Mei unscathed.

Since the establishment of Operations Division, you are the first to do so.

Zhongliang, I believe there won't be a second one.

For this,

I admire you.

I had no choice but to create this scheme.

If the spy isn't found, the whole division will be in danger.

Even Central Headquarters will get implicated.

I am torn from anxiety.

Even so, you haven't taken out any of your eyesores.

It's a pity that the spy is still on the loose.

Zhongliang,

do you think General Kagesa will continue to spare you?

Supervisor, no matter if you believe me or not,

I have always been an objective person.

I won't spare any suspects.

If I don't catch the spy, I will surely bear responsibility.

But if the spy continues to roam free,

who do you think will be the next person to bear this burden?

Enough, enough, enough.

Okay.

Sir, take care.

Here's the money.

Go now.

Aiyo, Secretary Qian.

Erbao.

You have hidden yourself well.

You lied to us for so long.

What nonsense are you saying? Move aside, quick.

I'm sorry. I said the wrong things.

I shouldn't call you Secretary Qian. I should call you Rehmannia.

Division Chief and Supervisor are waiting for you.

- I... - Arrest him!

Yes, sir!

I'm just reporting back. Why are you arresting me?

Division Chief, I'm innocent! Somebody framed me!

Division Chief, I've worked for you a long time. You understand me the best.

How could I be the spy?

I only know how to run errands and do odd jobs. I don't really know how to use a telegraph.

How can I have such capabilities, Division Chief?

Supervisor, for the operation to catch Rehmannia,

I even spent huge amount money to buy that information, Supervisor...

You know that very well. Isn't it, Supervisor?

But in the end, did Rehmannia appear or not?

This...I also don't know why he didn't...

I know.

I know! I know!

The person who wanted to frame me asked someone to intentionally sell me fake information,

and then lured all our people to be assigned to Jiading.

This...Supervisor, no matter what, I already reported to you

all the information that I got. And also, the order to arrest him,

was also ordered by you.

Then based on what you said,

I'm the one who sent news secretly to Rehmannia and lured away our people?

No. No. Supervisor, that's not what I meant.

Supervisor, it looks like Secretary Qian also want to trick you.

Division Chief, what should I say before you believe me?

Moreover, that night, I went with the whole team to Jiading to make an arrest.

So how could it be me who transmitted out the message at Qiufengdu? I totally won't have the time!

Then when Rehmannia sent out a telegraph, it was only you who wasn't inside the division. How do you explain that?

I followed Chen Shen!

Followed Chen Shen? He already returned two hours ago. Up to where did you follow him?

Wing On Department Store!

- Guess who I saw. - Who?

The leader of the Nationalist Hurricane Squad, Tao Dachun!

I suspect that Chen Shen went over there to meet with him.

Did you see them meet?

I didn't. Tao Dachun was guilty,

so he ran after seeing me. I blocked him off in a blind alley.

When I was about to catch him, I don't know who attacked me from behind my back

with a stick and caused me to lose consciousness.

When I woke up, I realized that I was

tied up inside a dilapidated courtyard.

It was hard for me to finally escape form there and then I ran back here.

Can you really believe these words that you made up?

Division Chief,

everything I said were true.

If you don't believe me, call Chen Shen over and I will confront him directly.

Oh, right, in that dilapidated courtyard, there is still the rope that I was able to cut off.

Go and send people to look for it.

Zhongliang,

I'll leave this matter to you, then.

Come.

Zhongliang, I believe that you won't let any suspect go.

That includes your own brother.

Thank you, Division Chief. Thank you, Supervisor...

Let Su Sanxing do some field work.

I understand.

Okay. I've finished packing.

Men's stuff are really simple. You can pack them all in just one suitcase.

It's also easy to drive a person out of the house. You could just throw them all out.

Are you getting prepared

to be driven out of the house by me anytime?

You can't bear to.

You probably are afraid that I will expose you.

Li Xiaonan,

I must thank you.

Since yesterday up to today, if not because of you, it would have been hard for me to get past these difficulties.

It would have been better if you didn't mention it.

Now that you mentioned it, my heart is really beating fast.

Earlier, at the interrogation room, I--

That necklace situation was just a puzzle!

What if I've answered wrongly?

Are we two both going to...

I just escaped from death's door.

I must slow down first.

Say, Li Xiaonan,

how many abilities have you been hiding from me?

Did I underestimate you?

I already told you before

that I am the movie queen. You didn't believe me.

I've only seen you wear this necklace once. Why don't you wear it?

Can't bear to.

Just want to store it.

Because this is the only valuable item that you gave me.

It sounded like I'm so petty.

Isn't that right? Did you only know it now?

If that's such a valuable item to you, how could you bear to take it out?

Because I know that you surely don't want anything to happen to Bicheng.

I also don't want anything to happen to you.

Actually, at the end of it all, I'm not after valuable treasures.

I just want your heart.

Are you willing to give it?

Team Leader Chen!

Division Chief asked that you go to the interrogation room!

Didn't we just come back? How come you're going again? Do you need me to come with you?

It's fine. The hardest part has already passed.

Hurry and come back then. I'll wait for you to go home together.

Hurry and come back!

Team Leader Chen, Secretary Qian is already in the interrogation room.

Division Chief asked you to go there to verify some matters.

Sure. I'll go there in awhile. You go first.

When will I cut your hair?

I am available anytime. How about you?

- I... - Bicheng!

You're out.

Did they make you suffer?

Xiaonan, thank you so much for this time.

No need to thank me. If you really want to thank me,

during my wedding with Chen Shen,

give us lots of red envelopes! I won't reject them.

Chen Shen is very fortunate to marry

- such a good girl like you. - Maybe Chen Shen is, instead, envious of Mr. Tang.

Oh, right.

Yours. Keep it well.

Thank you.

- You went to Wing On Department Store this afternoon? - Yes.

I accompanied Li Xiaonan to buy some stuff.

That woman was with you to be your cover.

Be my cover? What cover?

You went there to meet up with the leader of the Hurricane Squad Tao Dachun.

You must have noticed that I was following you. That's why you deliberately didn't talk with Tao Dachun.

And then when I blocked off Tao Dachun, you then sneakily knocked me unconscious. Am I right?

Secretary Qian,

if you are saying that I went to Wing On Department Store to meet up with Tao Dachun,

who then can prove that?

There were a lot of people near the main entrance of Wing On who saw him run, and then I chased him up to an alleyway.

If what you say is true,

what basis do you have to say that I went there to meet up with Tao Dachun?

You...

Any people who appeared there is suspicious. Even you too is a suspect.

All the people who appeared in that public square can be suspected to be his accomplice.

Okay. Even if I did go there to meet up with him,

then when I noticed that you were following me, why didn't I just kill you directly

and even let you come back to report on me?

- You... - Huh?

Supervisor Li. Division Chief.

There is indeed a dilapidated courtyard at the alleyway near Wing On Department, but I didn't find any rope.

How can there be no rope?!

I clearly cut off that rope and threw it in that courtyard. Did you search thoroughly?

Who told you that I didn't search thoroughly?

I found these in Secretary Qian's house.

What are those things?

Supervisor Li, it's better if you are the one to look at them.

'Return to Zero' plan...
