MY ROOMMATE IS A DETECTIVE

Episode 3

Miss Bai, we have not seen each other for a while.

I heard you have done a great job

in the newspaper office.

It is being exaggerated.

We come to visit you this time

to find out more

about the tram case.

Sure. Anything I know.

Behave yourself!

Just take another one.

Sorry.

There seems to be something wrong with her brain.

Your brain has something wrong!

I heard that

your company and Huakang Tram Company

had some unpleasant history.

Doing business is about

cooperation and competition.

Whether we were pleasant or not is not important.

I read your ledgers.

There was a time when

Donghai Power's offer of power rate to Huakang Tram

was much higher than the normal price.

Yes.

If they couldn't even afford the electricity,

why would they bother doing tram business?

I gave him the raised offer

after I got approval from the Municipal Council.

It was completely reasonable and legal.

Here's the thing.

I saw it on the Huakang Tram's proposal that

you used to want to buy them.

Yes, that's true.

I had the intention at the time.

You have to know that they were not doing well running the business at the time

and they were short of funds.

I have enough money

with cheap electricity.

If only they had the vision to work with me,

that would have been a win-win situation!

But the negotiation failed.

Then something happened to Huakang Tram.

It has become a hot potato now.

It's not too late for you to buy it now.

It would only be a white elephant for me.

Mr. Lu, excuse me.

Wait.

Who is this?

Passers-by found the body by the Suzhou River.

Does that need an autopsy?

No.

Under situation like this

when no one comes to claim it, we will just register on the record and

cremate the body.

This is too sloppy.

Do you know how many people die a day in Shanghai?

If we examine each John Doe case like this,

we won't be able to solve it even with a hundred times more staff members.

You must have an autopsy on this body.

And do it now.

The deceased's head was severely hit.

His face was cut with a sharp object.

Seriously exceeded sodium and potassium in his blood.

Undigested nuts and raisins in his stomach.

There are traces of being bound at his limbs.

Have you checked his clothes?

Not yet.

Run a test on them.

I smelled

a familiar smell on him.

But I don't know what it is.

Ok. I will do it as soon as possible.

Xiaoyu, is it this one?

Why are you still here?

Why?

The tram case hasn't been solved yet.

You still have the time to solve another crime?

The dead guy is related to the tram case.

Do you remember it?

When we were at the scene,

we smelled a weird smell.

This person has the same smell.

Mao San.

You know him?

He was a little punk.

He loved women and gambling.

He would rob people on the street every time he lost money on gambling

and when he got the money, he would go back to gable again.

Youning once wrote an article about him

warning female workers at night shifts pay attention to safety.

Night shift female workers?

I think someone killed him

because he saw something.

I heard you knew Mao San very well.

Who are you?

Concession Police Station.

Damn!

Mr. Qiao?

Call me Inspector Qiao!

Say it.

When did you last see Mao San?

The fifth day of this month.

The day of the tram case.

Specific time?

In the small hours that day. I lost all my money on the table.

As soon as I came out of the casino, I met Mao San.

He was so upbeat.

I asked him if he made a good fortune.

He said yes.

We also agreed to play high on the table the next day.

And then I never saw him again.

Then what did you run when you saw us?

Sir, I didn't run!

Inspector Qiao, I didn't do anything!

I will say it!

I stole a bike

and lent it to Mao San for several days.

I never rode the bike again after he returned it to me.

Where's the bike now?

Chamber bitter.

Chamber bitter?

What is it?

A common herb.

There are irregular bluestone particles in the soil.

Only explosive can cause

such fine particles.

Around Shanghai area,

there is only one bluestone mine in Sheshan, right?

Let's go.

Right now?

Bai Youning promised me that

she will move out as soon as the case is solved.

Hurry up! Time waits for no one!

Keep on holding it.

I have searched everywhere

all night with you in this mine.

Did you find anything?

Be patient.

Mao San must have been here.

On a different subject, do you really dislike Youning so much?

You don't find her annoying?

Although Youning

is a bit weird with both her temperament and temper,

she is a good-hearted girl.

You bear her only because of her father.

You don't know her yet.

When you grow to know her,

you will accept her gradually.

Don't worry.

That's not gonna happen.

What is that?

Let's go take a look.

Look what we stumbled on.

Since we found the missing tram,

maybe those female workers are also nearby.

Let's go.

Watch out!

Lu Yao.

I took care of them. You can come out now.

I'm here,

Come out. It's okay.

Thank you for saving my life.

It was just my instinct.

No, no, no.

I just did it out of my instinct to protect my wallet.

OK, fine.

I will be your wallet from now on.

According to our moral code,

I will return the favor.

So

why don't you repay me now?

Right now?

Didn't you say that you will repay me?

But…

Do it.

Fine. I will do it.

Here.

I'm hugging you.

What are you doing?

Didn't you say you wanted a hug?

I was asking you to repay me!

Who asked you to hug me?

You should have said it clearly!

The few of you search at the back of the mountain to

see if there are any more culprits.

Big Guy, you lead a team to find the female workers.

You have to any each and every one of them.

Yes, sir!

Come out.

Come on.

We found them!
