Episode 3
Teacher Zhang. Please come in.
Teacher Shen hasn't left yet?
I'm still looking at some materials.
What's wrong?
Is something the matter?
About Li Qian...
Everyone feels it's a pity.
It is.
She's good at doing research.
I hope she can get herself adjusted quickly.
And return to the school.
You always have the students' interests at heart.
No wonder they like you so much.
However,
good intentions might not always be rewarded.
It's enough as long as my conscience is clear.
But Teacher Zhang,
the courseware you did recently
had some errors.
This has never happened before.
Did something happen?
Recently,
I couldn't sleep.
My mind's not in good condition.
You can continue your work. I won't disturb you.
How is it, Old Li?
Does it feel like a volcano's power is gushing out?
No.
No?
Then, if there's nothing else
I'll get back to work.
Alright. Thank you.
Chief Zhao.
You didn't have to get even Old Li to give it a go.
A scientific investigation must constantly strive for improvement.
It's strange.
Everyone has touched the Eternity Dial,
but until now,
only Boss has made it react.
Is that strange?
Who am I?
I'm the leader of the Guardians.
I can't just have a higher pay
and nothing else that's special.
There's nothing else...
Little Guo, is it so difficult to get some information?
Sorry, Sister Hong.
I haven't found the information you wanted.
I don't blame you.
This library has always just been decoration.
If Lin Jing hadn't forgotten to key in the data we wouldn't have to bother.
You, only have work on your mind.
You don't take care of anything else.
Boss, we have a new case.
Another student died at Dragon City University.
This is a student?
How many years was he held back? He looks older than Old Li.
Dragon City University.
Morning.
Teacher Shen!
Teacher Shen.
Teacher Zhang.
Did you want to talk about changing classes with me?
I've already heard from the dean's office.
I'm sorry.
I have something urgent.
Nothing to be sorry about.
Who doesn't have some troubles at home?
I've already agreed.
Really?
Thank you.
That... that is...
This is the cake from Engineering 4 class.
Liu Yadong. Their class.
I don't usually eat sweets.
Here, Teacher Zhang.
- You can give it a taste. - No need.
No. Thank you, Professor Shen.
Thank you. I'll go off first.
Professor Shen likes desserts as well?
What a coincidence. I like them too.
You are sick with a cold.
I suggest that you don't eat too many sweets.
It's fine!
Thank you.
You came here today
not just to eat cake right?
Little Guo.
[Wishing Professor Shen good health and happiness! - Engineering 4]
Zhang Hao?
When did this happen?
Yesterday night.
The school suppressed the news.
That's why you didn't hear anything.
Professor Shen.
This
is your student again.
Are you suspecting me?
In this world, there are three things that can't be believed.
One.
The bellyband on a best-selling book.
Two.
Texts about winning a lottery.
Three.
Coincidences in a case.
I think that all coincidences
are man-made.
It's really a coincidence this time.
I only started teaching Zhang Hao's class this semester.
I'm not very familiar with them.
Zhang Hao should be in Engineering 4.
I understand.
A pure coincidence.
Teacher Shen.
My bad, I disturbed you.
Teacher Zhang.
It's fine.
Let me introduce you.
This is my colleague,
Teacher Zhang Ruonan.
This is...
Zhao Yunlan.
I'm Professor Shen's...
good friend.
Teacher Zhang.
Do you know Zhang Hao
Zhang Hao.
What happened to him?
Yesterday night,
he was murdered.
I'm sorry.
I can't help you.
I'll leave first.
This Teacher Zhang likes to apologise a lot.
She has a low self-esteem.
Or...
she's been traumatised,
and doubts herself.
Chief Zhao.
I understand your style of making audacious assumptions,
but can you not aim it at someone innocent?
She is really our teaching assistant.
She is honest and kind to others.
I guarantee it.
She has nothing to do with this.
Alright.
Then Professor Shen,
we'll go off first and stop disturbing you.
Take the information.
I'm not wrong.
Zhang Hao isn't incommunicado. He's dead!
I heard it clearly.
That day the three of us...
Hello?
I never thought something like this would happen.
Zhang Hao
liked to play sports.
Even though I've quarreled with him before,
I never thought that
he would leave this way.
You are the class rep.
This news is only for your ears.
Don't spread it.
Yes, yes.
Who does Zhang Hao mingle with the most in your class?
With his roommate, Wang Ziqiang.
Zhang Hao.
Wang Ziqiang.
I have to drop by the hospital to get some medicine.
Officers.
You... you have to find the culprit.
To let Zhang Hao's spirit rest in peace.
Thank you, officers.
That Wang Ziqiang.
I'll let you question him.
Remember...
Stop pulling a long face.
Win people over with kindness.
Understand?
Chief Zhao.
Why don't you go back and rest?
I can get the medicine for you.
After all, we usually do the work.
You just have to give the orders.
If you need something done, just give me a call.
Take care of your body.
What does "we do all the work",
"I just have to give orders" mean?
- I.. \- I'm already this sick.
Don't make me skin you alive.
Wang Ziqiang.
Zhang Hao.
Still missing one more.
Sorry.
Stop there.
What is it?
[Special Investigation Department]
With your artistic skills,
you'd scare yourself to death
before solving the case.
Number 70. Please go to counter 3.
Are you okay? You...
Girl.
You dropped your prescription.
T... Thank you.
What is it? You know her?
I'm just curious,
why didn't she dupe you?
You're easy to bluff.
Student Yike's body is not very healthy.
She likes to be by herself.
No one knows her family situation.
And she's always wearing gloves.
She doesn't like coming into contact with people.
That's right,
one time when the school wanted to take our fingerprints,
she wouldn't take them off.
She got very anxious and had a row.
Boss.
The medicines you had me look up
are all tonics to treat congenital anemia.
But there's something strange.
I went through all the hospital records.
Wang Yike gets medicine prescribed
but she's never had a physical exam.
What kind of people
don't dare to expose themselves?
Dixing-ians.
Old Chu. How are things over there?
Wang Ziqiang has something on his mind but won't talk about it.
Continue observing him.
He knows about Zhang Hao's death.
If they're really both complicit,
then it will be revealed somehow.
Okay.
Dragon City University
is full of people hiding special talents.
And that Zhang Ruonan...
You have time to conjecture but no time to drink medicine?
Zhang Hao.
Be honest with me,
did you die
because of what happened then?
If that's so,
just tell me in a dream!
- I'm begging you... - Ziqiang?
What are you doing here so late?
Ziqiang?
Ziqiang!
Don't scare him off.
Let Damn Cat shadow him at night.
Chief Zhao.
I have the duty to offer up clues,
but you coming to disturb me at work repeatedly
makes things difficult for me.
Speed is precious in war.
Aren't we also afraid of another student getting killed?
Professor Shen.
What do you know of Wang Ziqiang
and Wang Yike from Engineering 4?
Nothing at all.
Class 4's class rep, Liu Yadong
is sincere and warm.
He's the only one who struck me.
I wanted to say this before.
Professor Shen is skilled in studying all kinds of living things,
just lacking studies of human beings.
Will seeing through people
really lessen the hurt
and disappointment?
Many tragedies
were destined
from the beginning.
What can I do?
[Teacher's Hostel]
[Student Hostel]
Once I've eaten my fill,
I'll watch you all night.
[Student Hostel]
Hello?
Wang Ziqiang's dead?
His appearance is exactly like Zhang Hao's.
This time
I afraid the school can't hide this anymore.
Old Zhao.
Why are there two dead people?
Little Guo.
Fainted at the sight of the body.
Little Guo.
Little Guo!
Two.
What is it? What is it?
Two what?
Old Chu, stay here.
Damn Cat, let's go.
Teacher Zhang Ruonan.
Let's introduce ourselves again.
Section Chief of the SID, Zhao Yunlan.
I'm formally asking you to assist in our investigation.
Last night I saw Wang Ziqiang
waiting outside the Teacher's hostel for a long time.
Teacher Zhang,
did you not see him last night?
You're right.
I saw him.
Teacher.
We went too far.
Please spare us.
I'm begging you.
P... Please spare me.
I'm begging you, Teacher!
I will not forgive you.
I came here to tell you:
Run.
The further the better.
Then can you tell me
what happened between you and them?
That's right, Teacher Zhang.
Please say it if you know something.
Half a month ago,
I failed three students from Engineering 4 for skipping class.
So they played a colossal trick on me.
Teacher Zhang,
this is a token from the three of us.
I have a birthday party outside tonight.
Please come.
Thank you.
We will meet up at the public square first.
Alright.
Look, over there!
She's waiting over there.
Go, let's go.
Why was it me?
Teacher Zhang!
Let her rest a while.
The murderer left behind 'three', 'two' and 'one'.
It must refer to the three students.
Two of them are Zhang Hao and Wang Ziqiang.
The last one is...?
Mr Class rep.
I'm handing you a task.
You're in charge of sending her to rest.
Can you do that?
I'll definitely complete it.
So many things were covered up?
No wonder this half a month
Teacher Zhang was looking lost.
But
what does this have to do with you staying in my office?
Just like you said,
about having close relations to the matter.
Professor Shen,
as the god of Dragon City University,
should be in regular contact with Teacher Zhang.
So do you have any records
of the students who failed in some of her classes?
Teacher Zhang.
You're awake.
Teacher Zhang,
you are a good teacher.
You guys are so capable,
I don't dare to be your teacher.
As expected.
Teacher, I was wrong!
I'm begging you. Please spare me, Teacher!
Spare you?
Spare me.
Then who will spare me?
I don't have anything left! I've nothing to spare you with!
That day, the three of us did it on a whim.
And it was mainly Zhang Hao and Ziqiang who did it!
Then what are you afraid of?
Just go on living your life.
Teacher, please don't say it like that.
Zhang Hao is dead.
Ziqiang is also dead.
The next one is definitely me!
Teacher, I don't want to die.
I don't want to die!
- I'm begging you. Please, spare me! - Liu Yadong!
Don't come over!
The last one.
You cannot escape.
Wang Yike, let him go!
Don't come over!
It's not over yet.
I advise you to go back with me obediently.
I killed all three of them! I surrender myself!
Arrest me.
Alright.
You killed them?
Come.
Suck me dry.
Wang Yike is taking revenge for you.
You are lying for her.
Tell me,
what's the relationship between you two?
Do you need help?
I know she's from Dixing.
And I know she has a special power.
Yike.
But deep in her bones,
she is a child kinder than any other.
She started going astray
because of me.
I'm begging you to stop killing people.
You don't know what you are doing!
I know!
They caused you to lose your purity.
I will make them pay with their lives.
But their sin doesn't deserve death!
I thought this through.
I will surrender myself in your place.
Don't be stupid.
- Yike! - Let me go.
Stop there!
Teacher Zhang Ruonan.
Why did you call me here?
Wang Zheng is in a special situation.
You are the only girl left in the SID.
Of course I'll ask you to be the big sister to communicate with her.
Boss.
- What about me? - Shut up.
You'll know soon.
Teacher Zhang.
Don't regard me as someone who's on the case.
Just think of us
as sisters having a heart-to-heart.
Thank you.
Tell me.
How do you regard your relationship with Wang Yike?
We are family.
Then your feelings are very deep.
Such being the case,
you should urge her to stop before it's too late.
Shouldn't you?
She's been here so long,
but she's never hurt anyone else.
She must've done all of this for you.
But now you are trying to take the blame.
Then what's the point of her doing this?
This is the last call between us.
Yike, where are you now?
You don't need to know.
You just have to know
after 'three', 'two' and 'one',
there's a 'zero'!
This is going to end once and for all!
Hello? Yike!
I've traced the signal.
It's at the school.
This is bad.
Professor Shen!
Go die, you hypocrite!
You were so close to Ruonan,
you must be planning something!
I won't give you the chance to hurt her!
And then?
Stop your life of hiding
and indulging in delusions.
Someone like you
will never understand
what she means to me!
As long as I can protect her
my life has worth!
Why is it...
What are you...
Let him go!
Professor Shen.
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
Are you okay?
Don't touch!
Sis!
If you can absorb it,
then you can return it!
Quickly!
I don't know how!
What should I do?
Sis... Sis...
Little Guo, call Wang Zheng.
There's information in the department.
Yes, yes!
I remember seeing it before.
I'll look for it.
Sis.
Leave it be.
This is fine.
Yike.
You have done enough for me.
If I hadn't gone to get medicine at the hospital that day,
and couldn't protect you,
then this would not have happened.
I want to atone for my sin.
Why do you still not understand?
I wouldn't have been able to survive that day without you.
You've always said,
I was your benefactor.
But in actual fact,
you are also my benefactor.
Sister.
You are the first to extend a helping hand to me
ever since I came to this world.
Stop running!
Others fear you,
but you should not fear yourself.
Only you
have never treated me like a monster.
It's also you
who let me come into contact with life for the first time.
With this,
you don't have to be afraid anymore.
Sister.
I won't allow anyone to hurt you.
I know.
I know it's wrong to murder people.
That's why,
I will atone for my sins
with my life.
I asked you to call her!
You don't need to look for it anymore.
I can finally
let you touch my face without fear.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry!
What sorry?
This is the best ending
for you and me.
Sister.
Teacher Zhang.
If there are feelings, then there are weaknesses.
It's a pity. Your abilities
were the most suitable to destroy everything.
But
being able to secretly neutralise Wang Yike's abilities?
A university professor?
Professor Shen.
Thank you for all this time.
Are you really leaving?
For Yike's sake,
I will become strong
and atone for her sins.
This is the present Yike bought for me
when she earned her first paycheck.
Let's take a picture together.
I don't know how to use this.
The students nowadays are really...
Can't even take a small setback like failing a paper.
Hearts more fragile than potato chips.
Even though Zhang Ruonan is scarred badly,
at least she managed to keep her life.
Must be because she's been with Wang Yike for so long
and had some resistance to the dark energy.
Is it really that simple?
What else could it be?
Surely someone couldn't have saved her right under our noses.
What will happen to Wang Yike after being taken away by the Black-Cloaked Envoy?
This Professor Shen is also very impressive.
Witnessing something like this,
but he doesn't even bat an eye.
I know.
I know that place is quite far from my work.
But there's a reason why I must stay there.
Alright.
Find something that fits my specifications.
[Thank you]
I'm not the only one
who can't figure it out.
I don't know how to use this.
But
someone can help us take a picture.
Li Qian and Grandma.
Teacher Zhang and Wang Yike.
They didn't hesitate to use their lives to protect their loved ones.
Professor Shen said
even though a stolen life is short,
but a promise
can remain unchanged for thousands of years.
Chief said this kind of relationship is called "guarding".
It's even more passionate than love
and greater than familial love.
I hope I can stay at the SID
and become someone
who can guard everyone.
Brother Lin Jing.
You are the one
Boss sent to help me?
I am. You are Dragon City's famous scientist,
it's an honour to work with you.
Of course.
I am the Pretty Man of Sci...
Which girl were you dreaming of?
Wang Zheng or Zhu Hong?
Someone scarier than both of them.
The whole face
was just a mass of pixels.
This is called "thoughts during the day
become dreams at night".
Girls who were perfectly all right...
Killing them was not enough,
each of their faces have been wiped away.
How deep was their hatred?
The perpetrator this time
committed a series of murders, only coming out at night.
Old Brother Black did not lie.
Our territory
is becoming less peaceful.
Let me reiterate,
I'm a secretary, not a field officer!
When have you seen a snake who likes walking?
We don't have enough people.
Otherwise Zhao Yunlan wouldn't have let you out.
"Let me out"?
I'm not a dog!
- or a cat! - Hold on.
I'll go take a look.
Lin Jing's communicator?
I'm wearing it. Don't worry.
Waiting here like this
wastes money and manpower
and is not effective.
Let's go home.
That makes sense.
Let me make a call.
Hello, Wang Zheng?
Help me note down
Lin Jing's bonus for this month...
Boss.
The perp's ruthless means
and vicious circumstances,
I, Lin Jing
will bring him to justice,
This should have nothing to do with you now.
One has shown up.
The rest
will definitely follow.
Where are they?
You are also looking for the Mount-River Awl?
Who dares to sneak in front of me?
Come out!
Don't move!
Are you okay?
A mud-stained male footprint.
The shape and size are the same as those left at previous scenes.
Special Investigation Department.
Turn around.
Prof... Professor Shen!
