Sparrow

In this current operations, there were a total of 138 members of the Nationalist Shanghai Division

that were either arrested or has surrendered or were shot dead.

This is not my fault. If you want to blame someone, blame Boss Dai.

All have surrendered?

It's my fault. I wasn't able to send the message out.

The Communist's Sparrow hasn't been found yet,

and now a Rehmannia has suddenly emerged.

If these two are hiding inside the Special Operations Bureau, then Bi Zhongliang has to bear a great responsibility for it.

Let him investigate first then set a trap for him.

What idea do you have?

Episode 24

I also don't think Bi Zhongliang is Rehmannia.

When I ordered you to exterminate the Shanghai Nationalists last time,

this news wasn't leaked at all.

This is enough to prove that Bi Zhongliang is not Rehmannia.

But I received news that

Bi Zhongliang has ties with the Communists.

Communists?

Sanxing,

this has a characteristic difference with trafficking.

This is a crime of conniving with the communist.

Has it been verified?

From what I know, there were really not much suspicious things in the case of

Prime Minister, the previously arrested communist rebel that was transferred to Nanjing.

But if I want to investigate all the files about this,

I cannot avoid Bi Zhongliang.

That is easy to do. I can provide you a special permit.

Inside the archive room, you can look at any case files.

That is great.

I surely will find any suspicious traces about this.

Wait a minute.

You must be careful. You must do this investigation quietly. Don't let anyone know.

That is for you own sake.

I understand. Thank you for your warning.

Ms. Liu, I was ordered by Supervisor Li to come here and investigate some case files.

Hope you can help me with this.

Oh, my, so this is the special permit.

You really have such huge prestige.

I've been here in the Special Operations Division for more than a year and it is my first time seeing the special permit order.

I am just someone's leg worker.

If you are going to talk about prestige, it's all thanks to Supervisor Li's prestige.

Jeez, Team Leader Su, don't be humble anymore. Just tell me what you need.

You can read them here. If they are not top secret files, you can also borrow them and read elsewhere.

But you must register it and I'll report it to Division Chief.

I don't need to borrow them. I can just read them here.

Okay. Tell me what do you need then. I'll help look for it.

Help me look for the case about Zheng Pingru assassinating Ding Shicun,

the assassination of the Special Shanghai City mayor Fu Xiaoan,

and the case of the Communist special agent Prime Minister.

No problem.

He has taken the bait. We can make our move now.

This Su Sanxing really has such huge ambition.

Su Sanxing has already entered the archive room.

That fast?

I need you and Tang Shanhai to block Liu Meina for me.

Okay.

Meina, I am Bicheng. I have a file here that needs to be archived.

I am currently doing something and can't leave. Can you pass by here to collect it?

No problem. I also thought of

looking for you to borrow some magazines.

Okay. Thank you.

Team Leader Su, so sorry. I'll just leave for awhile.

If anyone looks for me, just tell him to wait for awhile.

Okay. You just do your work.

Look at this cheongsam.

This one's not bad.

I just love this color.

Tomorrow, I'll go to Shengji and tell them to order fabrics like this.

What do you think if I make one too?

I feel that only people like you

who has very white skin will be able to wear this kind of color well.

Yo, Team Leader Tang!

What are you two talking about?

Hurry and come over to help us look at this.

What do you think if I make a cheongsam like this?

Fire! Fire!

Fire?

Fire!

Fire!

Fire!

Men!

Fire! Hurry!

Fire!

FIre! Hurry and put out the fire!

Put out the fire! Fire!

Fire!

Fire! Hurry! Hurry!

Hurry and run. - I can't!

Team Leader Su is still in the archive room.

Why must you care for him? He can run on his own. - Right. Hurry and run!

Bicheng, let's go. - Hurry.

Are there anyone out there? Hurry and open the door! - Fire!

Hurry and open the door!

Hurry and put out the fire!

Hurry and run!

Are there anyone out there?!

Open the door!

Hurry! Hurry!

Hurry!

Hurry and open the door!

Team Leader Su, is that you inside?

Right. It's me. Hurry and open the door.

Hurry. Hurry.

Where did this fire come from? Such huge smoke.

Division Chief, are you alright?

Find the source of the fire.

Yes.

While the source hasn't been investigated yet, everyone must stay here and wait for further orders.

Hey, is everyone here?

Let's fall in line and do a roll call and we'll know then.

Come. Make a roll call.

There seems to be no sign of Team Leader Su.

Oh, no. Team Leader Su is still inside the archive room.

Could he haven't gotten out yet?

Liu Meina.

When did the rules in the division changed?

Without my permission, anyone can enter the archive room now?

No, Division Chief, you misunderstood.

I will never break the rules here in the division.

Team Leader Su came with Supervisor Li's special permit.

I was just planning to report this to you.

Special permit?

Su Sanxing really is so capable.

How about I'll ask men to look for him?

I'll go with Team Leader Chen. - No need.

Wait for Erbao to check first the situation of the fire source.

Yes.

Even if Su Sanxing put on wings, he will not be able to fly out of here.

Division Chief, should we do a roll call first?

Do it! Make sure to do it well!

Yes. Roll call!

Come. Come. Stand properly. Roll call.

Go.

Team Leader. - Not bad.

This is about enough. Extinguish the fire. - Okay.

Enough. Let's leave.

Liu Meina.

Good.

Division Chief, I've finished roll call.

Other than the men out-of-office for errands, only Su Sanxing is missing.

Division Chief, we've found the fire source.

It started from a pile of materials at the western stairs connecting the second and third stories.

How did the fire start?

I suspect somebody threw away a cigarette butt and started the fire.

Has the fire been put out?

Luckily, the fire wasn't big. It's extinguished now.

Bian Tou! - Here!

Take a few men with you to clean the site.

Don't move. Ah Da, An Qing.

Take two men. - Be careful!

Okay. - Hurry!

We can go back inside once the smoke clears out. - Okay.

Shanhai, you, Chen Shen, Erbao and I will go inside first.

Yes, sir.

Where's Zeng Shu?

Strange. He was just here.

Somebody really had moved him.

Do you think today's fire was really an accident?

Even if it was, somebody must have purposefully started the fire.

Could Su Sanxing have created the fire because he wanted to steal documents?

It was only an attempt at stealing documents.

Then, he must have had an accomplice.

Because we discovered it too soon, his accomplice escaped in order to save himself.

Then, why is he fainted here?

Because there wasn't enough time. To save himself, he could only pretend to be injured

and push the blame onto somebody else.

Sounds logical. Looks like we are all analysis experts.

If this reasoning is correct, Su Sanxing can't escape a death punishment this time.

Team Leader Tang, Team Leader Chen, you two will be in charge of interrogating Su Sanxing.

Remember, don't wrong an innocent man, and don't release a guilty man.

Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Why is Bi Zhongliang willing to spend so much effort in opposing Su Sanxing?

If he uses this tactic against me one day, I will die without even realizing it.

You and Su Sanxing are different.

How?

First, you have Li Moqun supporting you. Su Sanxing doesn't.

Is Li Moqun not his supporter?

That doesn't count.

If something happens to Su Sanxing, Li Moqun will rid of all relations to him.

How would this count as support?

What's the second qualification?

Secondly, if Su Sanxing was as good of a person as you,

Old Bi wouldn't be so rushed to kill him.

That's right. Making the first move is safer.

Shanhai, I think Zeng Shu is gone.

Zeng Shu has never gotten along with Su Sanxing,

and has always been suppressed by him. He probably wouldn't help him.

If Zeng Shu really thinks that after we ruin Su Sanxing,

we would go after him, he really might help him.

Might he go find Li Moqun?

What do we do, then?

We must make Su Sanxing die logically

before Li Moqun arrives.

What do you want?

Team Leader Su,

you are the first person to ask me that question

in this interrogation room.

Why have you handcuffed me?
