Episode 6 recap: Zhao You Nan and Duan Ming Hong rushed to Guangning to meet Huang Zong Wei and Chen Chang.
In the vibrant KTV of Linhai City, Guangqin Province, the night was filled with lights and revelry. Gun Brother, accompanied by a group of men, arrived here and instructed the leading lady to make proper arrangements because these were all important figures. He sat alone in a private room, smoking a cigarette, not even showing interest when a woman came in to serve him. Suddenly, there was a commotion outside. It turned out that the police had come for a surprise inspection.
Zhao You Nan was preparing to go to Guangning when she received a page from her second sister. She hurriedly went to her second sister's house and saw her sister's face covered in bruises. Zhao You Nan was furious, knowing that her brother-in-law had once again been violent towards her sister. Zhao You Nan urged her second sister to divorce her husband, but her sister was unwilling to give up the good life she had with her husband.
Zhao You Nan went to her brother-in-law Jiang Xiaoming's factory and confronted him. She wanted to take action against Jiang Xiaoming, but he told her not to interfere in their marital affairs. Duan Ming Hong arrived and reprimanded Jiang Xiaoming, emphasizing that domestic violence is not just a matter between spouses. He warned Jiang Xiaoming that if he repeated his actions, he would personally take legal action against him. Jiang Xiaoming readily agreed, nodding and promising.
Duan Ming Hong came to urge Zhao You Nan to go to Guangning. After they got off the train, Captain Tian from the Narcotics Control Brigade in Guangning and a narcotics police officer named Xiao Ning were already waiting for them at the station. On the way, Captain Tian and Duan Ming Hong exchanged information briefly. Captain Tian believed that it was a bit reckless for them to come to Guangning to investigate Huang Zong Wei because in recent years, the police had launched numerous crackdowns and almost wiped out the drug traffickers in Guangning.
However, he still took Duan Ming Hong and Zhao You Nan to a KTV nearby and informed them that it had been under surveillance by the Narcotics Control Brigade for nearly half a year. They had discovered a drug dealer named A Chang, but nobody had seen him in person. It was said that this KTV was their meeting place for transactions. If Huang Zong Wei came to Guangning, this would be a breakthrough point.
At the same time, Lu Hao and his men arrived in Haining and found the residence of Huang Zong Wei's wife, Ye A Lan, along with their triplets. A Long came here with drugs to find Chen Chang. Prostitute Xiao Hong approached him first, and the two were in the midst of a transaction when Chen Chang's subordinates A Sheng and Xiao Ji burst in and pinned A Long to the table, forcing him to reveal Huang Zong Wei's whereabouts. However, A Long insisted that they must comply with Huang Zong Wei's demands or he wouldn't meet them.
When the timing was right, Captain Tian entered the KTV with Xiao Ning. He was looking for his informant, Flower Fox, and requested information on Chen Chang and Huang Zong Wei. Flower Fox complained that Captain Tian was pressuring him too much, which could easily raise suspicion from their targets.
A Sheng saw that A Long was being tight-lipped, so he reluctantly agreed to follow Huang Zong Wei's instructions. They arranged to meet Huang Zong Wei and Chen Chang the next afternoon. After Captain Tian came out, he informed Duan Ming Hong and Zhao You Nan that his informant had overheard the conversation between the drug dealers and learned that they were planning to meet the next day. However, the informant was cunning and only revealed this information after the dealers had left.
Zhao You Nan and Duan Ming Hong entered the KTV for a search. Zhao You Nan noticed that the drug-sniffing dog was unusually interested in the newspapers inside one of the private rooms, which raised her suspicion. Gun Brother and the group of men he brought to the KTV were all captured by the Linhai City Public Security Bureau in Guangqin Province. Drugs were found on them, but since Gun Brother had no prior criminal record, he was released. Gun Brother, angry about the situation, went to find Lao Hu, the person who had arranged the reception for him, and insisted on trafficking drugs together. Lao Hu agreed and promised to take him to his superior.
When it was time for the meeting, Huang Zong Wei and A Long arrived at the designated location by taxi. Huang Zong Wei instructed A Long to greet people in Cantonese and asked him to go ahead and assess the situation. If things seemed suspicious, A Long was to pretend to go to the convenience store to buy cigarettes. A Long agreed and walked ahead. The taxi driver asked Huang Zong Wei what he was doing, and Huang Zong Wei showed his identification, claiming to be a policeman on a cross-province operation to arrest a major drug lord. The driver relaxed after seeing the identification, and Huang Zong Wei made another request, asking for the driver's help if they needed it. The driver readily agreed.
A Long arrived at the convenience store and immediately sensed that the owner was a policeman, while Captain Tian, who heard him speaking Cantonese, did not raise any suspicions. Captain Tian saw A Sheng and Xiao Ji approaching and quickly signaled his team to apprehend them. A Sheng and the others immediately ran for their lives. Huang Zong Wei urgently asked the driver to help block the police, while A Long, A Sheng, and the others took the opportunity to scatter and escape.
Meanwhile, Huang Zong Wei found himself alone in a small alley when suddenly a group of people blindfolded him and took him away.
Episode 4 is so fake. How can an out-of-town police officer understand the terrain? Even if they do, how can they understand it better than the local officers and catch up to the suspect?
Moreover, when they got off the car, these out-of-town police officers immediately split up to chase after him. How did they know which direction he ran in, and how could they catch up to him in that amount of time?
From the time they got out of the car, it would have taken at least a few minutes. If one person ran into the bushes and others started chasing a few minutes later, they definitely wouldn't be able to catch him.
