Lost in Love (Lost in 1949 / Tuo Shen Zhe / 脱身)

Ripped By Rockfella Lost in 1949

December, 1948.

The value of Gold Yuan deteriorated.

The people were worried.

The governors were struggling...

while planning for retreat.

The people were fighting to convert the gold to make ends meet.

It was a chaos.

Make way! Make way!

You!

Is this how you drive a car?

Can't you see that I'm here?

This way please, the stocks are upstairs.

Be careful.

You're here.

Please come in. Please come in.

Please come in.

Keep yelling!

I'm hungry!

Look for Long Legs at black market.

Pass this memo to him.

I've got your stock all ready.

I count on you for my grandson's formula.

You're welcome.

You've been taking care of me here.

My stomachache is killing me.

It's your time for some fresh air.

Xu Hui.

Zhi Cai, a cigarette please.

Zhi Cai.

Zhi Cai, a cigarette please.

Thanks Brother Qiao.

Don't forget about my thing.

We've investigated.

The communist bandit is having meeting at second floor west wing.

There are about 7 to 8 of them.

How did you find out?

There was a communist we encountered in Chongqing.

His code is Ba.

He was seen about half an hour ago.

Is our setup ready?

This is the plan.

The staircase at west wing will squeak from movements.

We'll get in from east wing.

There's a warehouse at east wing.

And it is stuffed with items.

It's better for monitoring.

There's a staircase at back door on first floor that leads here.

The owner of this leather shop is called Ye.

He's not around as he is out purchasing goods.

How about the monitoring agent? Are they in place?

Yes he is.

But since it is an emergency...

he only managed to bring local monitoring device.

Why? What about the German's?

We'll need the approval from Chief Jiang of the logistics department...

if we were to use imported monitoring device from the station.

He is not around today.

Anyway, let's move.

Yes.

There have been quite a number of pro-democracy professionals...

showing their affinity in joining the political conference.

We've sent quite a number of professionals up north.

But there are still a small number of them...

due to some personal reasons, chose to stay back in Guang Zhou, Shanghai.

We have to protect them...

from being assaulted by the opponent.

We have to send them up north to join the reformation of a new China.

We shall name this operation...

the Homecoming Operation.

Meal time!

The bun is inedible, brother!

Craziness has filled the entire atmosphere.

Same goes in the prison.

The prisoners fight merely for a fulfilling meal.

What are you doing?

Calm down! Calm down!

Stand still.

The operation may start after Mr. Ye's back.

He'll bring the transceiver that we need.

When will Mr. Ye be back then?

That's the plan. He's in Nanjing.

He'll be back in Shanghai by train tomorrow.

Great!

Stop!

Stop!

Get back!

Brother!

It's new year. Don't be angry.

He just wanted something to eat.

-Don't be angry. -Kill me if you dare.

Now.

Sir, the communists are all dead.

None of them survived.

It seems like a suicidal operation.

Sir! Sir!

There's a survivor. Our people.

Bring him here, quick!

That Ye fellow...

will be back from Nanjing by train.

Emergency treatment, quick!

You come here.

Look up for the background of this Ye fellow now.

Be it a photo or a portrait.

I need it to be in our hands as soon as possible, understood?

Right.

Will the train from Nanjing to Shanghai...

pass by Changzhou?

-Yes. -Good.

Prepare a car, take only a few of you along.

We'll head to Changzhou Station now.

If we see Ye,

nobody moves a muscle without my order.

You're prohibited to pull the trigger, understood?

-Yes sir. -Let's go.

Who's he?

A political criminal who'll be executed by shooting soon.

Just having fun beating him up.

How about your assignment?

It's almost done.

It's President Jiang's new year pardon tomorrow.

Qiao Zhi Cai is on the list.

Someone doesn't want him to be released.

-Understood? -Yes.

He'll be shot to death tonight.

Shot?

For trying to escape.

Don't ruin it.

Don't worry.

Xu Hui.

Have some water, Xu Hui.

Want some water?

Did you get in touch with Mr. Ye?

No.

What happened at the leather shop was unexpected.

I'd sent Mr. Ye a couple of emergency signals...

but he didn't respond.

He must have boarded the train from Nanjing.

The transceiver is still with him.

What shall we do?

We need to pick him up at the station first thing in the morning.

What are you doing?

Xu Hui.

I'm not hiding anything from you.

I'm getting out.

He'll be shot to death tonight.

Shot?

For trying to escape.

I'll place your medicine here.

You must take it,

to prevent inflammation and fever.

Thank you.

We're brothers. It's our destiny.

You take care.

Brother Qiao, since you're out...

can you do me a favour?

Sure.

I'll help if I could.

Help me up.

-Are you alright? -Brother.

I can't afford to see you...

sacrificing yourself.

Brother Qiao.

I know I can't convince you to stay.

I'm not going to make it out,

therefore I chose to do this.

Somebody wants you die tonight.

You're listed for new year pardon.

You must make it through tonight.

My late father left this for me.

Please pass it to my family after you're released.

Hefei Road, Handel Leather Shop.

Mr. Ye.

Please give it to him by hand.

Brother.

I bid you goodbye.

Excuse me.

Take out your identity cards.

Take out your identity cards.

-Mr. Ye. -Take it out.

We'll check one by one.

We'll check on your hand held luggage too.

-Take out your ID! -You made a mistake.

We'll check one by one.

We'll check on your hand held luggage too.

Take out your identity cards. Take off your coats.

Open up your boxes.

Take off your scarfs.

Take off your hats.

Show me your identity card!

Take out your identity cards.

Check carefully.

Identity card please.

That's all you brought along?

Relative visitation.

Identity card please.

Identity card.

Ye Ru Feng?

Come, take out your identity cards.

They don't have it.
