WEILIN PRIVATE NURSING HOME
Hello. Can I help you?
Hello, I'm Yen Sheng-hua's friend.
Have you seen me before?
No.
Can I take a look around then?
CRIME SCENE, DO NOT ENTER
I'll wipe your drool, okay?
- No.
- Why not?
- I don't want to.
- It's dirty, it's dripping.
- No.
- I'll wipe it, okay?
- I'll wipe it.
- No.
I really don't know
what you're thinking.
How can you face him?
Taking care of him like this now
makes me feel disgusted,
do you know that?
I swear, I'll kill Hsieh Chih-chung.
I must kill Hsieh Chih-chung!
Chiang Yuan.
Lin Chen.
Did I ever mention
Yen Sheng-hua to you?
Do you know her?
No. Why did you suddenly text me
that Yen Sheng-hua
is involved in a murder?
What exactly happened?
My Physics teacher,
Hsieh Chih-chung, was murdered.
Yen Sheng-hua was my classmate.
I think she has something to do
with the murder.
For some reason, I keep seeing
a very vivid scene in my mind.
I don't know
why Yen Sheng-hua came to see me.
Then we had a big fight in the car.
I kept saying
I'd kill Hsieh Chih-chung.
All right.
Listen to me.
Have you forgotten?
You were in an accident.
You had a brain injury.
Didn't the doctor say
there would be aftereffects?
Those memories
could be your imagination.
What if those memories are real?
That police officer
named Hsiao-liu…
I couldn't answer
any of his questions.
I really want to clear my name.
But when the murder took place,
I don't remember where I was
and what I was doing.
- Calm down first.
- You were at the hospital.
I went with you for your checkup.
I remember it very well.
Your brother already says so.
Can you not worry now?
Go inside and get some rest.
You don't look too well.
Calm down first.
It's fine.
Lin Chen-ye.
Did you sure really
go with your sister for her checkup?
You have to believe that
in order to protect my sister.
Mrs. Hsieh, I'm sorry
to ask you to come here.
It's okay.
I also want to know
how my husband's case is going.
Did you find Yen Sheng-hua?
There's no news
about Yen Sheng-hua yet.
But don't worry.
We'll surely find her.
Yen Sheng-hua used to be
my husband's student.
My husband was very good to her.
I don't know why she's so ungrateful.
Yen Sheng-hua
is just one of the suspects now.
We're not ruling out others.
Mrs. Hsieh.
Do you remember
anyone having any conflicts
with Mr. Hsieh?
No.
He was a very good person.
He was a very good teacher.
He even received
a lot of excellent teacher awards.
It doesn't matter who did it.
If we catch him,
he has to explain things clearly.
Mrs. Hsieh.
Are you here to visit Mr. Hsieh?
My relative passed away.
I came to burn the incense.
You don't remember me?
I work in the nursing home.
We've met before.
How's your hand?
It's okay.
We're all very sad
about what happened to Mr. Hsieh.
I've met many
of your students' parents
who are very concerned,
especially Mr. Lin.
After Mr. Hsieh moved in,
he often brought fruits
to the kitchen for us.
Mr. Lin?
Which Mr. Lin?
Don't you know?
His daughter, Lin Chen-hsi,
was Mr. Hsieh's student too.
You're still
distorting the truth now?
Mr. Lin also knows our head nurse.
I've seen them talk a few times.
I brought braised pork hock,
your favorite.
The doctor said
that after your stroke,
you can't eat food
that is too greasy.
You were always upset.
You said I didn't know you.
After 35 years together,
how could I not know you?
I really hate myself.
If I were more careful,
we wouldn't meet Yen Sheng-hua again.
How could Yen Sheng-hua
do this to you?
Someone must have helped her.
I originally wanted the police
to arrest her
and give her the death penalty.
But what if Yen Sheng-hua
talks about the past?
You're already gone,
but I still have
to clean up your mess.
In this lifetime,
you really owe me a lot.
Too much.
Hello?
Hello?
Are you Lin Chen-hsi?
You are…
I'm your teacher's wife.
Mr. Hsieh's wife.
Hello, Mrs. Hsieh.
Are you okay?
I heard you were
in a very serious
car accident before.
I'm fine.
I just don't remember
a lot of things.
You didn't forget
about me too, did you?
Mrs. Hsieh, I'm sorry.
I don't remember you.
Then why did you call this number?
This is Mr. Hsieh's phone.
I found this number
on Yen Sheng-hua's business card.
I see.
You know what happened
to Mr. Hsieh, right?
I'm very sorry.
Are you free today?
I have something important
to tell you.
It's about Yen Sheng-hua.
Don't tell anyone that I called you.
Come to my house.
Why don't we eat together?
Lin Chen-hsi.
It has been a while.
I thought you'd be here by now.
Come on in.
Have a seat.
I also made soup.
Mrs. Hsieh.
Your hand is injured.
You don't need to bother.
It's nothing.
I can manage with simple dishes.
I haven't had a proper meal
in a while too.
It's rare for you to keep me company.
I'll be done soon.
Have a seat inside.
Bye.
Bye.
- Ride safely.
- Bye, Mrs. Hsieh.
Okay.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Keep doing the test.
Go home when you're done.
No.
No problem.
Lin Chen-hsi,
you aren't in sync with the group.
TO MR. HSIEH
HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY
DEAR MR. HSIEH,
THANK YOU FOR BEING SO NICE TO ME.
FROM LIN CHEN-HSI
The soup is ready.
Let's eat before it gets cold.
Don't you miss this?
This house
used to be very lively.
Thank you.
Here's the bowl.
Let me do it.
I'm sorry, I still need your help.
Thank you.
I hope you don't mind
the simple dishes.
I used to cook because of Mr. Hsieh.
Now that he's gone,
I feel lost.
Lin Chen-hsi.
Do you really
not remember
what happened in the past?
But I think I remember
that Mr. Hsieh seems
to be very fond of me.
It's true.
He adored you.
I guess that's why
your parents were very displeased.
I'm guessing
they fought a lot
because of this.
My parents often fought over this?
I'm not too sure either.
But you have to understand
your parents.
After all,
you're their only daughter.
By the way, Mrs. Hsieh,
what did you want to tell me
about Yen Sheng-hua?
I was thinking
that I shouldn't bring it up
since you don't remember.
Can you…
promise me
to keep this a secret?
Yen Sheng-hua lost her parents
at a young age.
She and her grandma
depended on each other.
She's from a poor family.
Mr. Hsieh was soft-hearted,
so he tutored her here for free.
In the end,
she developed feelings for Mr. Hsieh
and bothered him for years.
It's hard to believe, right?
No one knows about this.
Yen Sheng-hua
was my husband's mistress
for many years.
I used to vent to you.
Because of that,
you started to not understand
Yen Sheng-hua.
He disgusts me. Do you know that?
This is my job.
Is that why she killed Mr. Hsieh?
It must be.
Mr. Hsieh always felt
that he failed me,
so he wanted to break up with her.
But Yen Sheng-hua's personality
is too extreme.
Maybe she couldn't accept it.
She's always good
at getting sympathy.
Do you know
that your dad brings fruits
to the nursing home?
The cleaner there told me
that she often saw them chatting.
I'm worried
that your dad
is secretly covering for her.
I asked them.
They said they don't know
who Yen Sheng-hua is.
Let me be blunt.
I hope you don't mind.
I'm worried
that Yen Sheng-hua seduced your dad.
Maybe
your dad knows
where Yen Sheng-hua is hiding.
Do you know
what your dad is up to these days?
Mrs. Hsieh.
- My dad would never--
- Chen-hsi.
Can you do me a favor?
Hsiao-liu.
I got in touch with the contractor
at the nursing home
on the day of the murder.
The worker's whereabouts
those few days were very clear.
There's evidence and witnesses.
We can be sure he's innocent.
The memory card of the dashcam.
in the construction van.
Take a look.
You found it?
- Good job.
- Of course.
HOUSEHOLD CERTIFICATE
June 1st.
The second week
after the murder
at Weilin Nursing Home.
The dashcam captured scenes
on the day of the murder.
Based on the footprints
left at the scene,
it's certain
that the killer is a man.
For now, we suspect
that Lin Chen-hsi's dad,
Lin Yung-sheng,
really went to the nursing home
on the day of the murder.
Lin Yung-sheng helped Yen Sheng-hua
return to school.
They seem to be very close.
But does the murder
really have something to do
with Lin Yung-sheng?
Or did someone else do it?
And how much does Lin Chen-hsi know?
I just didn't expect
that things would get so complicated.
- Hello?
- Hello?
- Hello?
- Hello?
Hello, Hsiao-liu?
Can you hear me?
My junior?
The signal is bad.
The result is out
for what you sent out last week.
What is it?
It's a fertilizer like chicken poop.
How can that be
in Hsieh Chih-chung's room?
Okay.
Okay. That's all.

CRIME SCENE, DO NOT CROSS
The police can't find Yen Sheng-hua.
If your dad is really hiding her,
maybe we can stop him
and stop him from doing this.
Isn't that good?
I just called you.
Didn't you hear me?
What are you doing
in my dad's orchard?
I'm investigating a case nearby,
so I stopped by.
Are you here to see your dad?
Yes, I'm looking for my parents.
They were busy.
Did you find anything?
No.
I'm about to leave.
I'll tell my dad you were here.
I'll give you a ride.
No, you go first.
I still need to lock the door.
It's on my way.
I'm a nurse. This is my job.
He's a patient in our nursing home.
Lin Chen-hsi.
Lin Chen-hsi.
Don't scare me.
Lin Chen-hsi.
Are you okay?
I'm feeling much better.
Why are you running around
when you're not well?
I think the headache
is an aftereffect of the accident.
I also hear things sometimes.
I've always wanted to ask you
why you have this.
Do you know what a black hole is?
A black hole is…
A hole that's black,
like a nostril.
I love black holes.
But later on, I didn't go to space
and became a police officer instead.
But staying on Earth
to look at the stars
isn't bad too.
I don't know why, but when I look up
to see the stars these days,
it makes me feel sad.
LAYOUT, BEDROOM
Lin Chen-ye.
Don't go out so late at night.
The stray dogs are waiting for me.
The police officer we met last time
seems to be investigating Dad.
Do you think
Dad is involved in the murder?
Don't let your imagination run wild.
Is anything missing?
I've checked.
I don't think so.
You live alone.
And your hand is injured.
It's dangerous
if someone wants to harm you.
Can you find a relative to stay with?
I can live alone.
And my hand is almost healed.
It's almost time
to take off the cast.
Mrs. Hsieh.
The door lock isn't broken.
Did you forget to lock the door?
Did you leave the stove on?
I'm sure I didn't boil water.
According to the autopsy,
Hsieh Chih-chung ingested
a high-concentration sleeping pill.
Do you take sleeping pills?
I don't.
That's not mine.
There are many stray dogs around.
If someone comes at night,
I think they'd bark.
But she just said
she didn't hear anything last night.
My junior.
What is it?
Here.
Please check this for me.
I suspect these sleeping pills
are the same as those
Hsieh Chih-chung ingested.
Also,
investigate if Mrs. Hsieh
usually takes sleeping pills.
Are you suspecting
that Mrs. Hsieh is the murderer?
Everyone says
that their relationship is good.
Why would she kill him?
That's why it's strange.
Don't you think the thief
and the boiling water were tricks?
What that person wants
is for us to find this.
You mean…
Someone is trying
to frame Mrs. Hsieh?
I'm just speculating.
- Get those examined first.
- Okay.
Mr. Lin.
It's so shabby here.
I'll try to find another place.
Endure it a bit.
How is Lin Chen-hsi?
She's good.
She doesn't remember
anything anymore.
Don't worry.
It's nice
not to remember anything.
Then she probably
doesn't remember me too.
I remember
how she scolded me so harshly
the last time I saw her.
I don't know what you're thinking.
Send him to another hospital
or resign immediately.
Not a day goes by
that I don't think about it.
I swear,
I'll kill Hsieh Chih-chung one day.
I must kill Hsieh Chih-chung!
After the accident,
I haven't had a chance to see her.
I really want to tell her I'm sorry.
I let her down.
It's not your fault.
You shouldn't have
stopped me that day.
Then you don't have
to hide like this.
Mr. Lin, I don't want
to implicate you.
I want to turn myself in.
No!
I saw the news.
The police said
that Hsieh Chih-chung was strangled.
You didn't kill him.
But I was the one
who put the sleeping pills in.
I really hoped
that he never woke up.
The police are looking for you now.
I'll find a chance
to get you out of here.
After leaving,
go somewhere and start over.
Forget all about this,
just like Lin Chen-hsi.
Lin Yung-sheng!
You…
Are you…
Yen Sheng-hua?
Mrs. Lin.
What are you doing here?
Did you follow me?
Why did you come to her?
Didn't she kill Hsieh Chih-chung?
Sheng-hua didn't kill
Hsieh Chih-chung.
Why don't you go home first?
Go home first.
Are you…
Are you covering for her?
Go home first, okay?
I'll explain later.
Let's get out of here first.
I don't want to!
I want to know why right now.
Sheng-hua.
Tell me.
What exactly happened?
Tell me.
It's all my fault.
Mr. Lin didn't do anything.
You heard her.
She can just turn herself in.
Don't let it drag you down.
Our family is already in a mess.
That can't happen.
I'm sorry.
Sheng-hua.
Sheng-hua.
- Sheng-hua!
- Don't go after her!
I'm begging you.
- Please.
- Let go of me!
I'm begging you!
Sheng-hua.
Sheng-hua.
DAD
Your call will be forwarded
to an automatic voice message system.
You will be charged after the tone.
Your call will be forwarded
to an automatic voice message system.
You will be charged after…
Mom.
What happened?
Are you hurt?
Are you not feeling well?
You have a fever.
Don't mind me.
What's wrong?
Did you have a fight with Dad?
Is he at the orchard?
Mom.
Mom.
Sir.
Excuse me,
which one is better for fever?
Any other symptoms besides a fever?
No.
How much is this?
It's okay.
How much?
One hundred dollars.
A hundred dollars will do.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
How are you lately?
Is that police officer
still bothering you?
Lin Chen-hsi.
Mrs. Hsieh.
What's wrong?
Are you sick?
No, my mom is sick.
Mrs. Hsieh.
My dad is missing.
His phone is turned off.
My mom won't say anything.
I'm so worried now.
It's okay.
About us contacting each other,
you didn't tell anyone, right?
It's better not to tell anyone.
I just don't want your family
to be dragged down by Yen Sheng-hua.
After all,
your dad's sudden disappearance
is really suspicious.
I remember you have a twin brother.
Is it possible that he knows
where Yen Sheng-hua is?
I don't think he knows.
I'm just guessing.
But think about it again.
Has your brother
been different in any way lately?
Or…
Lin Chen-ye.
Don't go out so late at night.
I don't know
what Lin Chen-ye was venting about.
He won't answer any of my questions.
He's a police officer.
Hsiao-liu.
We'll go home on our own.
Thank you.
You're the only one I can count on.
If we find Yen Sheng-hua
before the police do,
I won't care who helped her.
Think of a way
to help me find her, okay?
Hsiao-liu.
The sleeping pills you sent
is the same as what Hsieh Chih-chung
ingested indeed.
Is this medicine hard to get?
As long as you have a prescription,
it won't be hard.
I know a few pharmacies in town
that sell it.
Lin Chen-ye.
We met last time.
Do you remember?
It's so late.
Are you going to feed the dogs?
LANHSIN PHARMACY
These shoes must have been worn
for a long time.
The soles are already worn out.
And based on the size,
it should be a man's.
Are you going the wrong way?
This is the direction
of Hsieh Chih-chung's house,
not yours.
What are you doing?
I should ask you that!
What are you doing here?
I came to look for my brother.
You scared me!
For fuck's sake,
you know I almost pulled the trigger?
What time is it already?
Aren't you in poor health?
Don't you pass out
when you get a headache?
Why are you yelling at me?
Just the thought of this
makes me angry.
In all my years investigating a case,
this has never happened before.
I can't do this or that.
It's so annoying!
What are you annoyed about?
I have to go. I have a lot to do.
What exactly is going on?
Hsiao-liu!

LIN CHEN-YE
LIN YUNG-SHENG
Hello?
I am.
Lin Yung-sheng's phone is on?
Send me the location.
You're a police officer?
What are you doing here?
Mr. Lin.
Do you know
how serious the penalty is
for attacking a police officer
and taking his gun?
Answer me!
What exactly are you doing here?
Lin Chen-hsi
is very worried about you.
How do you know Lin Chen-hsi?
Leave my daughter out of this.
Mr. Lin.
Calm down.
Do you know Yen Sheng-hua?
I don't know her.
On the day of the murder,
you went to the nursing home.
Right?
You really shouldn't have come.
I still have a lot to do.
- I still…
- Mr. Lin!
Don't be rash.
Listen to me.
Let me go.
I can help you.
You can help me?
I can help you.
Don't come any closer!
Hsieh Chih-chung
is that kind of scum.
You know, the Business Department
has a secret group chat.
Whenever they must socialize
with a client,
they'd ask if
a low-level female employee
is willing to drink
and eat with them.
I don't know who found
these photos online.
I'm quitting.
- I'm sorry.
- Why are you apologizing to me?
What are you doing here?
Who knows
if her amnesia is real or not?
What exactly happened in the past?
My parents betrayed me
and you betrayed and hurt me too.
What secret is this family hiding?
