Code Thirteen

Episode 1

In the Autumn of the year of 1940,

due to the defection and betrayal of Hou Kun, an intelligence agent from the Nationalist Party's Bureau of Investigation and Statistics,

the Shanghai Intelligence Station of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics was massacred by the Japanese army.

Station Leader Tang, it is better meeting you than hearing about you a hundred times.

You just took one misstep.

You didn't promote Hou Kun, this man mesmerized by self-benefit，

to the position of Deputy Station Leader.

Next one.

The next one is also the last one, Deputy Station Leader Wan Mulin.

He lives in Yinhang Lane's stone house.

Brother Guang.

How was it? Did anyone trail you along the way?

I met some trouble on the way, but I shook them off.

The great Chinese traitor Zou Bo'an recently arrived in Shanghai. He must be eliminated.

We have lost contact with the organization for such a long time

Where is this from? -You don't need to know.

They followed at last.

There's no time. Open your mouth.

Your teeth all went bad, I must pull them out. Sit.

I...I... are you for real?

Brother, the arrow is already on the string. We cannot fake it. Sit.

Come on, don't worry. We'll be finished soon.

Wait a minute, don't go yet. We'll go and see.

Endure it.

Okay, get up.

Give me the money, you can go now.

Here.

Rinse your mouth first.

You pulled a perfect tooth.

See? -That doesn't look right.

Let me see. This tooth, although a good one,

it would still go bad one day.

It's better to pull it out sooner than later, right?

How about this. Which tooth hurts?

This one, this one.

I will pull out another one for you for free.

Sit down, sit down.

Wait a minute... you're fooling around with me.

How would a good tooth turn bad? I'll beat you up.

No, no. Brother, listen to me. When you're a hundred years old,

this tooth of yours will definitely fall out, right?

Compared to that then, why not pull it out now, right?

Am I able to live until a hundred years?!

Bastard, I'll let you have a taste of my fist.

Where do you think you're going? - Brother.

Where do you think you're going? - Don't.

Are you running away?!

Stop!

My bicycle!

My tooth!

Never mind. Don't follow them.

Those two people don't look like Communists. Let's go.

Move aside! Move aside! Move aside!

Move aside!

Get lost!

Where is he?

I... I don't know, I don't know!

Search! -Yes, Sir.

Reporting: he has already escaped through the back window.

After him. -Yes, Sir.

This way.

Brother! Run! Quick, quick, quick!

Here!

After him!

Fire!

Move out of the way! Move aside!

Dingdang.

Brother.

Quickly, close the door.

Here.

Here, here.

My... my...my foot is dislocated.

It's a problem I've had since youth. If I sprain it, it dislocates.

Hurry up and find a doctor for me.

I don't lack money.

Do you think it's that easy finding a doctor?

What use is money? Even if you have money you need to be alive to spend it.

Let me tell you, right now the Japanese are at the hospital doors, all set up and waiting for you.

If you go now, that is death, you know?

No, well... you can't watch me die and not do anything!

You'll have to suffer a bit, brother.

Dingdang, come and help

Wait, what are you doing? -Tie him up.

No, no, don't get agitated.

Come.

You'll have to suffer a bit, brother.

Don't be anxious.

This doesn't seem to be useful.

Come on, let me see.

Dingdang, hold him.

Bear with it, ok?

Got away?

A few dozen guns chasing one person, and he still escaped?

General, please punish me.

Within three days, you must capture the last fish.

Yes, Sir.

General, do you need me to cooperate with Sato?

No, you have another mission.

Immediately go to Nanjing and bring Zou Bo'an here.

Jiang Jieshi has been closely watching our peace talks with Wang Jingwei.

You must ensure Zou Bo'an's safety.

If he lives you live, if he dies you die.

Yes, Sir.

Keep this in mind. The Plum Organization

cannot fail.

Yes, Sir.

Sir, your medicine.

Chu Zou, Wan Mulin of Shanghai Station sent a telegram.

Because of Hou Kun's betrayl, KMT's Shanghai Station has been destroyed by the Japanese Intelligence Office.

Wan Mulin requests speedy assistance.

How many are left?

Apart from Wan Mulin, possibly all were sacrificed.

Is that Gu Xuefeng, the one who's not satisfied with his position, still in Shanghai?

Yes.

Notify him immediately to assume the position of Shanghai Station Leader.

Yes.

These four people - Li Fenghuang, Zhou Haiping, Ouyang Qin, Qi Yuhuan,

originally they were to be transferred to Chongqing to strengthen the headquarters' plans.

Now notify them immediately to come from the branch stations to Shanghai to report.

Form the 13 Pins team.

Start the Zombie Plan, and activate those zombies that have been latent for a long time.

Continue to carry out the Chairman's order of wiping out spies. - Yes, Sir.

Wait.

When is Zou Bo'an coming from Nanjing to Shanghai? -The day after tomorrow.

Tell the four women they must eliminate him.

How long can this group of traitors continue to be rampant?

Yes, Sir.

The train already arrived twenty minutes ago.

Why has Ouyang Qin not come out?

She's coming.

Move aside!

Move back.

Everyone must stay away! Hurry!

Zou Bo'an

Protect Mr Zou!

They are assassins!

It's Ouyang

Catch them alive.

Hurry, run.

We must retreat immediately. Regroup at the designated location.

Haiping, you cover -Okay, run.

Don't you leave, you have to testify for me. He knocked himself out and died. I had no part in it.

You, stand right there.

Officer. Officer. I...I am a good citizen.

I'm a magician, a magician.

Officer, look. Magician. Magician.

Yes, yes. Officer has hit well. Powerful and right on.

They have run far away.

Fool.

Is Mr Zou all right?

If something happens to him, your brain will be in trouble.

Miss Miyano, don't scare me.

I don't have parents, but I have children. My brain cannot afford to have trouble.

If my brain is in trouble, that means my son is in trouble.

If something happens to my son, I will become an unfilial son.

And also,

I already pray to Buddha, asking for protection. If he encounters another mishap,

that will be the responsibility of Buddha. -Shut up!

What did you say? They only sent four people?

Precisely. They were four women.

Women. Women are tigers.

They dared to send four women here,

there must be a deeper purpose.

Don't underestimate the enemy. -Yes, Sir.

This is Plum Organization's General Masaharu Takeda.

Mr Zou has suffered a shock. Welcome.

Yes, yes. Shanghai is no longer a safe place. Just now, at the train station,

there was someone who was greatly welcomed.

General Takeda, please, please please.

Old Hai Inn

Speak. Why did you act at the station?

On the train, I followed Zou Bo'an the whole way before I had a chance to act.

He sold out and killed 13 senior officers. My husband was one of them.

The only reason that could persuade me to live is to avenge my husband.

Besides, our mission is Iron Blood Traitor Elimination. Why can't I kill him?

As long as they killed him, I'd prefer to have died with him

But you didn't die.

You're alive and well.

Neither did Zou Bo'an die.

Those who died are innocent civilians

If everyone must take revenge

it is those civilians who have died innocently.

Do they all have to become evil ghosts to seek revenge for you?

You are first a secret agent.

And only second are you an avenger, 3rd Golden Pin.

Li Fenghuang, what right do you have to lecture me?

Right?

My whole family died by the hands of the Japanese.

I killed 37 devils and traitors. Tell me if I have any right?! (devils refer to the Japanese invaders)

I want to see 1st Golden Pin.

2nd Golden Pin Li Fenghuang.

4th Golden Pin Zhou Haiping.

5th Golden Pin Qi Yuhuan.

Before the 1st Golden Pin appears,

Li Fenghuang is willing to stand in for them to carry out the mission.

Bullshit!

Okay, save your strength for killing the Japanese.
