Okay.

Bro Zhang, I’m gonna go.

Tomorrow is May 6th,

Monday.

At 8 a.m.,

the annual marathon will be held in Huanhu Square.

Please notice the time for road closure

and detour in advance.

Besides,

tomorrow is a sunny day.

Have you come back home?

I’m not at home now.

But I’ll put the key at the place you know.

SISYPHUS

Episode 1

I’d like to draw windows everywhere on the ground

to let eyes once in darkness embrace brightness.

[Criminal Police Unit Guanhu Substation of Public Security Bureau in Lvteng City]

It’s him. He confessed his crime.

What’s your name?

Fu Jiliang.

Tell us

the process of your murder.

Last night,

almost 11 p.m.,

I climbed over the wall of Yunjing Community

and hid in the parking lot after then.

When Li Lan got off her car,

I followed

and killed her.

What’s your crime tool?

Of course knife.

What kind of knife?

The knife for cooking.

You mean chopping knife?

Is the knife yours?

Where did you get it?

From a rice noodles shop.

But at the scene...

Is Zhang Haifeng here?

What do you mean?

I’d like to see him.

Otherwise,

I have nothing else to say.

No way.

In principle, his requirement is not allowed.

But Chief Li,

if Fu Jiliang remains intransigent,

we can’t tell the authenticity

of what he said.

Then the time to solve the case will be delayed.

Chief Li.

Chief Li.

He’s just on a long leave.

It’s not like he’s suspended.

Okay.

After all it’s a special circumstance.

Let Zhang Haifeng have a try.

Fu Jiliang telling the truth is the priority.

I know.

Wait.

Keep it in control.

Yes.

Suo and Tian are keeping an eye on him,

so don’t worry.

Okay.

Wait for me in the car.

I will go by myself.

It’s not safe for you.

Leave here.

Okay, take care.

Won’t you invite me inside?

Sit where you like.

Look around, where can I sit?

Are you serious? Zhang Haifeng?

Two years, just two years.

You live such an awful life.

Look at your hair.

Look.

No money for haircut?

If so, you can tell me.

I’ll lend you the money.

What’s wrong?

Just go with me.

Does it matter to me?

Do you know him?

No.

He acknowledged his crime.

But he offered to see you.

And the knife he used was stolen from your shop.

What do you mean?

You’d better ask him.

I'm still on vacation, okay?

Interrogation is your business.

Zhang Haifeng.

A suspect

claimed to admit nothing before seeing you.

Dare you say you

have nothing with this case?

Where are you going?

As a criminal police for many years,

you already forgot your duties after 2 years’ leave?

Good.

You win.

Now Zhang Haifeng is here.

Chat with him.

Someone will die

at 10:30 pm tonight.

What do you mean?

Don't you want to know

who will be the next victim?

About this,

you should talk with her.

If I talk to her,

you can

wipe out what you did?

What did I do?

It’s no sense to talk with him anymore.

You can go on.

This...

What time is it now?

12:15 PM

What’s wrong?

I didn't kill anyone.

Yesterday,

once arriving at the company,

I received a call from my girlfriend

when I parked the car.

I heard a male voice.

Hello, Fu Jiliang.

He told me

he had kidnapped my girlfriend.

He also said

if I don’t do what he ordered,

he will kill my girlfriend.

He also

sent me a video

on kidnapping my girlfriend.

After then,

he asked me to go to the underground parking

to find a trash can

where I found that belt to wear.

He also taught me what I said to you just now.

Finally he asked me to surrender here.

And he asked us to

tell you the truth

after 12 o'clock.

Who is he?

Why did he do this?

Why did he offer to see Zhang?

I don’t know.

He only told me

tonight

another person will die

on Mengzhu Road.

Who will die?

Where’s that?

I don’t know.

I really don’t know.

He only asked me to see Zhang Haifeng

to tell him a date.

What date?

May 6.

What’s wrong with May 6?

He told me to tell you

a name.

Who?

Duoduo.

What’s the matter with Duoduo?

He said

her death

was not an accident.

Why was her death not accidental?

Let him go, calm down.

Tell me the reason.

I don’t know.

Go away.

Why was her death not accidental?

Zhang Haifeng, Zhang Haifeng.

Let go. Take him out.

Take him out.

-What else did he say? -Open the door.

Zhang Haifeng.

What else did he say?

Can you give me a cup of

warm water?

Wang, keep an eye on him.

Let me go.

Sit there and calm down.
