Su Cuilan is already dead and Li Xiaonan wasn't rescued.

Just let him end his grudges with the nationalists.

Sister, I will take revenge for you.

Division Chief Bi, I know that you are a loyal and righteous friend.

You have always treated Chen Shen like a real brother.

But he has always treating you as a gun.

The orphanage head Ms. Wang and Team Leader Chen are from the same hometown.

He indeed is very close to that little boy Pi Pi.

They just caught a communist who is here to implement a Return Home Plan.

You must be careful.

I will be careful.

Episode 58

I have some private matters. I want to borrow our men for a while, so I'm here to inform you.

You are going to look for that missing child named Pi Pi, right?

You knew?

Lanzhi is in the police station. I already talked with Commissioner Li on the phone

and asked him to put more effort into it.

Thank you. - Sit. Sit.

But say, could this kid just went out on his own to play?

Impossible.

At the scene, they found Pi Pi's shoe

and some chalks. He surely got abducted.

If he indeed got abducted, there must be a motive for it.

Don't get too anxious.

They will look for you sooner or later.

What I fear is that they won't come find me.

Erbao was able to catch a communist suspect.

There is already some result with the interrogation. This is the interrogation record.

Look at them.

I am not in the mood right now.

It's just an orphan. Do you need to be like this?

Lanzhi too, panicking like she has lost her soul.

You will even develop some feelings for a cat you've had for three years,

moreover a child.

Fine. The Division isn't so busy these days.

I'll send two more teams to help you search.

You also should look for things to do and stop being this idle.

Maybe once you're done, that child would also be found, right?

Return Home Plan?

These communist bumpkins know now to win over the hearts of people.

Think about it. For those people who are fighting with them,

if they have anything that they can't put down, it would be family.

This Return Home Plan

targets those orphaned children

and then send them all back to Yan'an.

Li Xiaonan is indeed dead

but you are still a big suspect for being her accomplice.

Grab hold of this chance well and win a round for yourself.

Or else, your days in the Central Headquarters will be harder.

Understand?

Why didn't you ask which children they are after?

We did. He said that he doesn't know it himself.

Maybe he was just keeping his mouth tight and insisting to resist.

Say, do you think Pi Pi

be related to this plan?

You think that he will be connected to it?

How much do you know about his identity?

I found him in the rubble from the Battle of Shanghai.

He also can't speak.

How much do you think I would know about him?

Li Xiaonan seems to treat him very well. Am I right?

You think that Pi Pi is a child of a communist?

Pang Yong got arrested and Pi Pi went missing.

Is it really just coincidence?

I'll go personally interrogate this Pang Yong then.

Okay. Go eat first.

No matter who has the child, you will be more at ease once we find him.

I'll go now then. - Okay.

Could this be a trap?

Could this be a pit that Bi Zhongliang deliberately dug out?

Chen Shen has a hard time determining it. But no matter what,

he cannot let go of this chance to interrogate Pang Yong.

But what if Pang Yong really won't confess?

Could he give him some secret signal?

No, he can't.

No matter what, he cannot expose his real identity.

He already lost Shen Qiuxia and Li Xiaonan.

He cannot also lose Pi Pi.

Division Chief, Team Leader Chen wants to personally interrogate Pang Yong.

He already told me.

He usually won't agree to interrogate people.

Should I then inform Pang Yong about it?

Tell him to tell Chen Shen that he is taking Pi Pi away.

At most, just add more money and let him continue this act.

This is not a matter about spending money to falsify a testimony.

I just fear that Chen Shen's eyes are very sharp. If Pang Yong just show a bit of inconsistency, he will be able to notice it.

He then won't take the bait.

Then, you mean...

Didn't Su Sanxing already take Pi Pi away?

Yes.

Yes.

Settle this matter while I'm eating my lunch.

Yes, Division Chief.

Division Chief Bi, Chen Shen looks very troubled.

Director Su, you also look troubled.

Why do you say so, Division Chief Bi?

Today, in the orphanage that Chen Shen frequents,

his favorite child, named Pi Pi,

went missing this morning.

Really? - Yes.

In the site where we went missing, he left one of his shoe

and some chalks.

Oh...

Chen Shen just went down earlier

and is currently interrogating the communist we caught.

Congratulations, Division Chief Bi. You were able to catch a big fish again.

I don't know if it is a big fish or not.

If Chen Shen is a big fish, as you said,

how can you make him take the bait?

Chen Shen, he...

isn't he your best buddy?

He indeed is my buddy.

But brothers are brothers. We all are people working for Mr. Wang.

I still know how to weight the importance of things.

If one really gets proven to be a communist,

no one can leave this Special Operations Division, isn't it?

That's great, Division Chief Bi. You finally see the light.

Help! The criminal has bit his tongue and committed suicide!

Team Leader Chen!

He bit his tongue and committed suicide!

Immediately send him to the hospital.

Yes.

Chen Shen was just about to go interrogate Pang Yong

but he suddenly committed suicide by biting his tongue.

This clearly was beyond what he expected.

Was it because he couldn't endure the torture and wanted to just end his life?

Or was somebody trying to silence him?

If it was to silence him, then what really is the mastermind

wanting to hide?

Chen Shen suddenly started to doubt the identity

of this underground communist liaison.

How did that Pang Yong get caught?

Pang Yong?

A tipster said that there is a communist laison

who will be riding a boat to Pier 16.

He doesn't really have much unique features except that he is a hunchback.

I then brought some men to wait at Pier 16.

When I saw a hunchback, I approached him to ask.

He tried to escape, so we arrested him.

How was it?

His life is no longer at risk. He currently is still unconscious.

Okay.

If someone asks you, what will you say?

The cut on the patient's tongue was very straight.

Obviously, it was cut off by a knife or scissors.

Here's what you say: "the patient bit off his own tongue."

Understand? - Yes.

Thank you.

Mister, have you seen this child?

No.

Pi Pi!

Sorry.

"Pi Pi, male, eight years old,

quite handsome, wearing a small braid,

mute, one foot has shoe while the other one has none..."

Mister!

Have you seen the child in this poster?

Today, at the Shikumen of Qiufengdu,

there indeed was a man carrying a child like this.

About this tall?

More or less. And his hair is in a small braid.

He was lying on the shoulder of that man. He seemed to be asleep.

Where did you see this child? - I just bumped into them by the entrance of the alley.

That child was only wearing one shoe. That's why I took special notice.

It is Pi Pi... It must be Pi Pi.

Mister, thank you. - You're welcome.

Hello, Sister Wang.

Is your information accurate?

Just wait. I'll be there right away.

There is news about Pi Pi.

Really?

I am now going to Mengjiang Church Orphanage.

I'll go with you. - No, you're not going yet.

You must keep watch in the hospital.

Why?

A recently arrested communist suddenly bit his tongue while being tortured.

I want to let you ask around.

Oh...

If the communists are really looking for Pi Pi,

could the communists have taken him?

Anyway, just go to the hospital and tightly keep watch of him.

We must not let him commit suicide again.

If it's convenient, help me check him out and try to know his background.

Okay.

Sister Wang, I really am worried about Pi Pi.

That's why I came over to ask if there are any news about him.

Come, drink some water first.

Chen Shen is here. Wait a minute. I'll just open the door.

Chen Shen. - Chen Shen.

Why are you here?

Don't criticize me. On the way here, I chose remote alleyways to take.

No one noticed me. I just want to help find Pi Pi.

You're acting recklessly. What if we don't find Pi Pi, yet you instead go missing?

Director.

Ah Shun is here.

Director, what are your instructions?

It's like this.

I have a mission for you.
