Reset (2022): Season 1, Episode 11 - Helping the Investigation - full transcript

I'll add some water for you.

The tea has turned pale.

- I'll get you a fresh pot.
- No.

I'm so sorry, ma'am.

Mr. Wang is never late.

I don't know what
is going on today.

Why don't I call him
and ask where he is?

Hello?

Where are you? What happened?

The reporter has waited
for almost an hour.

She is tired of waiting.



Mr. Wang, what is
holding you up?

Besides, didn't I ask someone
to inform you yesterday?

Listen, Mr. Wang.

This is a big deal for
you and the company.

You…

Hello?

All right, ma'am.

Listen to me.

Let's set up first.

Let me say something first.

You've been waiting so long.

You need to bring
something back.

I'll speak on his behalf.

Come on.



Thank you.

I won't sit on this chair.

I'll stand and talk.

Okay.

When it comes to
turning in valuables,

I remember Mr. Wang has done it

more than just once or twice.

This time, he was the one who found
a passenger's purse on the bus.

He didn't even think about it.

He turned it in.

When the owner came to claim it,

none of us expected

30,000 yuan in cash inside.

He is normally a hard worker.

You could say that

he pours his focus into work.

Mr. Yang, let's take a photo.

Is that all?

Move this banner to the side.

I'll photoshop
Mr. Wang in later.

Yes, that's a good idea.

Yes, look over here.

The bus is moving.
Please hold on tight.

Next stop, Yanjiang East Road.

I'm sorry. Just now, I…

Xiao Heyun?

Xiao Heyun?

Xiao Heyun?

Xiao…

Are you okay?

You…

These past few times.

- Your standby...
- What did you say?

What did you want to ask?

He is an accomplice. This
has been established.

I'm sorry. I…

I did act impulsively earlier.

I just…

I just don't know
what to do anymore.

Why are you so
worked up about him?

It feels like

someone you trust very much

suddenly betrayed you.

I came alone to
Jialin for school.

But every time I take this bus,

I get a familiar feeling
whenever I see him.

Didn't I tell you?

I see him every time I
take the Route 45 bus.

I've known him for
over two years.

Two years.

That just means he has been
planning this for a long time.

But he doesn't seem
like a bad person.

He helped me before.

You can't be sure
he is a good person

from one act of kindness.

But…

That's why I trusted you.

Think about it.

He has taken this
route for years.

That means one person was in charge of
taking the route and calculating the time.

The other person was in
charge of making the bomb.

That is a terrifying thought.

I know you're upset.

I can understand.

How about this?

Let's get off at the next stop

and think about this.

Come to think of it,

the driver was the reason several
of our missions were foiled.

We just didn't suspect him then.

It's all my fault.

Why should I blame you?

You didn't know
what he was like.

But do you remember?

It was that one time.

That twisted woman
kept scolding him.

She said

something about not
keeping his word.

And she suspected he
called the police.

So do you think it's possible

that the driver was
forced to do it?

And think about it.

If his goal is to kill
everyone on the bus,

then there is no way
we can get off the bus.

But

we forced our way off
the bus mid-route twice.

The choice to stop
and open the doors

lies entirely with the driver.

Before bus drivers
can report to work,

they all receive training

on how to handle emergencies.

In an unexpected situation such
as encountering a sexual predator,

they will normally
call the police,

lock the doors,

and hand the culprit over to
the police at the next stop.

Why would he make
an unscheduled stop

and let you off?

Normally,

the driver shouldn't have
dropped me like that.

But he did open the doors.

That means that he wanted
me to get off the bus.

He must have been
trying to save me.

If he still has a conscience
and wants to save people,

he shouldn't have
let her on the bus.

Yes.

I guess he took pity on you.

He let you go twice.

But the blast still
happened in the end.

I just think…

No matter what
his hardships are,

he shouldn't have
solved it like this.

Yes, from your point of view, he
might seem like a good person.

But what about the
other passengers?

If you're their
family or friend,

what would you think?

Would you care
about his situation?

Shiqing.

We have to prevent
the explosion,

not make excuses for him.

I guess I was right.

This is the first time

we've seen what happens
when no one interferes.

The bus blows up on
the bridge at 1:45 p.m.

This was their original goal.

PARTY MEMBER POST

What university did you say?

Jialin Normal University.

I have a student ID.

Why is your school's television
station covering off-campus matters

instead of school affairs?

We're going out into the world.

Things related to
students' lives

are all things we cover.

As you know, the Route 45 bus
is the most convenient way

to get to the city
from our campus.

Besides, students know the route

and have said many heartwarming
things have happened

on the bus.

A lot happens

on the bus.

We're in the office,
so we don't know.

Here's the thing.

We did a school
survey last time.

We learned that you have
a driver named Wang Xingde

who did a lot of good deeds.

He's perfect to be
featured on our program

as a role model.

We hope to find
out more about him

from people who know him.

This is also good
publicity for your company.

You dropped by without notice.

I can't help you.

Although you're
from the university,

you still should
have called ahead

or provided references.

If we don't have basic
information about the driver,

we can't provide references.

How about this?

Let me get a simple
overview from you first.

I'll get a referral letter
from the school later.

Then I'll set up an appointment
for a formal interview.

Is that okay?

Sir, please.

No, don't call me that.

I'm not that old.

Buddy, please.

I'm not trying to
make your life hard.

We have a lot of drivers.

If you're searching
for someone specific,

we don't know much
from the office.

Route 45, Wang Xingde.

- Route 45...
- Bad news, sir! Something…

What's wrong?

Just a moment.

What is it?

Our bus was in an accident.

It exploded on the
river-crossing bridge.

It's a total wreck.

- When did this happen?
- Not long ago.

The police are coming here.

We need to go and
meet them at the door.

Copy the dispatch
chart for the police.

Come on.

What caused the explosion?

We don't know if
explosives were planted.

Have the fleet maintenance personnel
return immediately to cooperate.

Maintenance charts

and all footage that
spotted that bus

must be given to the police.

No, wait.

- Which line?
- Route 45.

Who was the driver?

We need to check
the dispatch chart.

Route 45, Wang Xingde.

- You guys go ahead.
- Where are you going?

You guys can go ahead.

DRIVER SAFETY INFORMATION FILE

DRIVER QUALIFICATION
REGISTRATION FORM

Wang Xingde is not a local.

He used to drive a
truck, not a bus.

That's…

He mentioned this
in a loop once.

He didn't lie.

He quit his job, left his
hometown, came to Jialin,

and drove buses for four years.

Was that all part of the plan?

Look at this.

The reason for his
resignation says,

"For spouse's work transfer."

Do you think

the lady with the
bomb is his wife?

It's not impossible,

but if he has a spouse,

why did he live in a dormitory?

It wasn't easy to get these.

But the information
is too limited.

This isn't enough for us
to draw any conclusions.

There should be more
clues in his dormitory.

There might be pictures
or group photos.

Let's go and take a look.

Let me find it.

Ma'am.

Where is the bus
company's dormitory?

- This is it.
- Upstairs, right?

Thank you.

STAFF DORMITORY

Any movement?

What should we do?

If it comes to it, we'll have
to call a locksmith company.

A locksmith company?

In broad daylight?

I'll just show them my ID.

Hello, I lost my key.

Can you open the lock for me?

Yes, it's the dormitory for
Jialin Public Transport.

Third floor.

Yes, 303.

Identification? I…

Sorry, but I don't
think I need your help.

Do you live here?

You must be my uncle's roommate.

Who is your uncle?

Wang Xingde.

He asked me to get his stuff. I…

I lost the key.

Yes.

Come in then.

Shouldn't you tell him
that you lost the key?

I can't reach him on the phone.

I was calling the locksmith.
I'm glad you're back.

You can't reach him?

He's on shift today.

Okay, come in.

Come in.

What did he tell you to get?

Household register.

Yes, something happened at home.

That's his room.

- In here?
- Yes.

Have a seat.

Have a seat.

Thank you.

Are you his girlfriend?

That's good.

You look good together.

How long have you
lived with Mr. Wang?

A little over two years.

I've been living with him
since I joined the company.

We're old friends now.

- Sir.
- Don't call me that. "Buddy" is fine.

Mr. Wang is much older than me.

Buddy.

- Let me ask you something.
- Ask away.

Why don't you come here?

Go ahead.

Here's the thing.

My boyfriend is going to
take me to meet his parents.

Mr. Wang is his only
relative in Jialin.

I'm a little nervous.

I just want to ask.

What is Mr. Wang
like? Is he friendly?

Don't be nervous, young lady.

Mr. Wang is very nice.

He is honest and
doesn't talk much.

He doesn't act like
a parent at all.

If you two live in
Jialin in the future,

you will have a
relative like Mr. Wang.

You can rely on each other.

What about his wife?
Have you met her?

What is she like?

I know what you need the
household register for.

Is that what this is about?

Have a seat.

Is he getting a divorce?

Young lady.

I'm not trying to meddle in
people's family business.

But I have to warn you.

Yes?

Mr. Wang's wife isn't
easy to deal with.

I think she has mental problems.

Be careful when you
see her in the future.

What's wrong with her?

Is this why they're
getting divorced?

Most likely.

That woman is a pain in the ass.

Something comes
up every few days.

Look.

Not even a saint

would be able to
stand it, right?

If not, why would
Mr. Wang stay here

instead of living at home?

Maybe his house is too far away.

It might be more
convenient here.

How is it far?

His home is in
Gangwu New Village.

It's a convenient commute.

It's so obvious to everyone.

Mr. Wang doesn't pay
her much attention.

If they are already
living like this,

they should just get divorced.

But that woman bombards him
with calls every few days.

Who can stand it?

- Yes.
- I knew it.

They would get a
divorce sooner or later.

However,

I heard from my boyfriend.

He said his aunt
is nice and kind.

He also said his aunt
and uncle are close.

Nice?

Nice, my ass.

He is fooling you.

I got some insight
into it last month.

Late at night,

Mr. Wang's wife called
to ask him to go home.

She said there was a fire at
home and to help put it out.

A fire?

And…

- Did you find it?
- Yes.

Well, we're going to…

- Okay.
- Thank you.

Okay, it's no problem.

- I'll get going.
- Okay.

Young lady.

You should warn your boyfriend.

If he gets involved with his
uncle's family in the future,

he should leave you out of it.

Okay, thank you.

No problem.

Thank you.

Here.

Let's replenish our energy.

We need to think this through.

Now we know the
driver's background.

We also know that his home
is in Gangwu New Village.

Combined with the
situation on the bus,

that lady is most
likely his wife.

But we don't know anything

about their motive.

Think carefully.

Didn't you notice
anything else in the room?

There was just the medical
report that I mentioned.

He is healthy.

His bank book doesn't
have much money.

Was there anything else?

Yes, there was an old phone.

Like, really old.

Did you find anything
on the phone?

It won't turn on.

Only knowing information
about his work and family

is far from enough.

POLAR PARK CONVENIENCE STORE

WANG XINGDE 1:45

SEEDLESS ORANGE
GROWER WANG XINGDE

WANG XINGDE, 517 PROFILES FOUND

That's right.

You didn't finish talking
after you got off the bus.

How did you deduce
the 1:45 p.m. time?

Three data points support that.

The first time was when we
got off at the spot as usual.

We had an argument.
You went to the police.

I saw a police
announcement on the news.

The time of the
explosion was 1:45 p.m.

The second time was when we removed
the pot and jumped out the window.

I heard the ringtone that time.

I glanced at the
time. It was 1:45 p.m.

It's pretty much confirmed.

In that case,

at the time,

the driver was
repeating, "It's time."

But why 1:45 p.m.?

Do you think

someone put them to it?

Terrorists?

But don't you need a reason
to commit a terrorist act?

In that case,

we still need to
check their contacts.

We're not the police.
We can't find anything.

Yes.

The police can find
out what we can't.

Let me think.

This time, with
no interruptions,

the bus exploded on the bridge.

Then…

There's not enough
time for the police

to rule out all possibilities.

But if we go to the police

and have targets
locked on these two,

that will cut down
the time by a lot.

- It will be solved quickly.
- Yes.

I'll make the call now.

Hold on.

Let's first think about
how to deal with the police

and what to say.

We can't fail again.

SEVERELY PUNISH EVIL,
GUARD THE PEACE OF JIALIN

Mr. Zhang.

Everyone on the bus
died on the spot.

Have they been identified?

Forensics is working on it.

Jiang Feng.

When this type of thing happens,

you have to keep your cool.

I've also never worked on
such a big case before.

I got it.

First, calm yourself down.

Hello.

Hello.

- Is your name Xiao Heyun?
- Yes.

Hello.

Did you make the call?
What's your name?

I'm Li Shiqing.

I've been expecting you.

I'm Zhang Cheng,
vice-captain of the CID.

This is my colleague,
Jiang Feng.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Okay, please.

This way.

Ms. Du, they are here.

Thank you for your
cooperation. Sit down.

- Bring two cups of water.
- Okay.

Sit here. Come.

Thank you so much

for coming to the station

to help us investigate
this bus explosion.

I hope you both can go over

everything you saw
and heard on the bus.

Leave no details out. The
more detailed, the better.

Thank you.

We made plans to go
to the city by bus.

But we got off early
because of certain reasons.

We saw the news
about the explosion

and realized it was
the bus we were on.

We thought we could help out.

So we got in touch.

Why?

Why did you get off early?

It's because when we were at
the Gangwu New Village stop,

a mentally unstable
woman got on.

It was quite scary.

What was wrong with her?

She sat down and
pulled out a knife.

She kept mumbling to herself.

I don't know what she
was saying to herself.

I was afraid, so I
said we should get off.

She took out a knife?

What kind of knife?

It was about this long.

- This long.
- It was a dagger.

Actually, it was really scary what
that person was saying to herself.

She said,

"Kill them all.
Leave no one alive.

At 1:45 p.m., they
are all dead."

No, that's not going to work.

Being so specific

will make them
suspicious of our intent.

- It's better to be vaguer.
- We can't be vague.

Since we're trying to shorten
the case-solving time,

we need to provide clear clues.

We both know how alert they are.

If they get suspicious,

we'll have even less control.

Let's go with my idea.

She was talking to
herself so clearly.

Only you heard it?

What I mean is that

you both heard it
loud and clear.

The other passengers

must have heard it too.

How did they react?

I don't know if they heard it.

But they didn't
show any reaction.

The bus was pretty noisy.

We were the closest to her.

Also, we had an
eye on the knife.

Maybe we were the only
ones who heard it.

Yes.

And? Go on.

And then we got off the bus.

Yes, we felt it was
quite dangerous,

so we got off.

This woman got on at
Gangwu New Village.

Do you remember what she wore

or how she looked?

She was wearing a gray outfit.

And she was skinny.

She also had a red plastic bag.

I think it held a
pressure cooker.

Is that her?

Yes, that's her.

Actually,

I ultimately decided to get off

because of the pressure cooker.

Why?

Was there something about it?

As soon as she got on the bus,

I smelled something strange.

But I don't know how to
explain it. It was like…

Some kind of chemical?

I didn't even tell
my boyfriend this.

I'm afraid he'll think
I'm a conspiracy theorist.

But there are reports
of an explosion.

So I think that

the pressure cooker was fishy.

You should look into it.

Okay.

Aside from this woman boarding
at Gangwu New Village,

there was also a man.

Do you have any memory of that?

Yes.

Did they have any interaction

after getting on?

No, they didn't know each other.

We're just guessing

because they didn't
sit together, so…

Yes.

You're so certain.

Then did this woman interact

with the other passengers?

Other people?

Are you suspecting that she
had an enemy on the bus?

- Or…
- Enemies are a possibility.

An accomplice is
another possibility.

We need to screen everyone.

Now that you mention it, I seem
to remember she got onto the bus

and talked to the driver.

- Right?
- Yes.

She said something
really strange.

Something like,
"You'll die with me."

Come to think of
it, she called him…

What was it? Wang…

- Wang something-de?
- Wang Xingde?

Yes, I think so.

Wang Xingde.

Ms. Du, the trace
evidence unit said

they did find what looked like a
pressure cooker's remnants onboard.

Have you considered this?

If we only give
them vague clues,

what will the police
do with us afterward?

What do you mean?

I'm saying that we can't get
more information right now.

If we're just witnesses,

the police won't tell us how
the case is going, right?

Besides, we can't be sure

when they will announce
the case details.

What if we don't get
to the moment of truth?

When we enter the next loop,

we will be back at the start.

Won't we be going
in circles again?

I see.

If we stay in the station
as long as we can,

we'll have a chance
to get more clues.

That's right.

This is our only chance.

Mr. Zhang, here is the
interview transcript.

Are they staying at the station?

Is there something
wrong with them?

These two brats are fishing.

Even though the
information was good,

their direction was so obvious.

We still don't know what
their true intentions are.

So let's play along.

I'll talk to them again later.

Here's what.

I'll handle what
we tell the public.

Feel out their true intentions.

BY XI JINPING

This is the layout
of the Route 45 bus.

Based on what you remember,

can you mark where the
passengers were seated?

I think so.

- Here.
- Okay, thank you.

Two men were at the
front of the car.

A man was standing here.

He was in his thirties.

He was wearing a floral shirt.

Keys hung from his waist.

He was filming the whole time. He
was probably a livestream host.

A muscular guy was sitting here.

He was wearing gray
and had headphones on.

An older man was sitting here.

There was a burlap bag at
his feet. It was green.

It looked like
watermelons inside.

A woman was sitting behind him.

Short hair and
slightly overweight.

She carried a yellow woven bag

with medicine inside.

Two seats behind her
was a middle-aged man.

He had some balding going on.

There was a big
suitcase at his feet.

We were sitting here.

When we got off the
bus, a man got on.

He was dressed in black.

And sitting over here
was the one in gray.

The suspect, I guess.

There was a red bag at her feet.

Young man.

You have an amazing memory.

I design video games.

I'm used to memorizing
characters and scenes.

Did you major in
video game design?

Yes.

You must have trained for
this when you were in school.

No.

It's a subconscious
professional habit.

This kind of training
is quite useful.

I remember the academy
provided similar training

for the Criminal
Investigation specialty.

Right, Ye Qian?

That's right.

If you go to any place

just once,

does it get imprinted
into your mind?

Something like that.

You walked from the
station's entrance

to here.

Can you draw the
station's entire layout

from memory?

I'll try.

Here.

Show me your skills.

Young man.

This is what we have so far.

We have photos of
every passenger

that we believe was on the
bus before the explosion.

It's a shame. They
are all blurry.

And it's either of
their backs or sides.

From what you remember,

do you think

you can identify them for us?

Okay.

Hello?

What's wrong?

She must be shocked from
seeing the victims' photos.

She has been blaming herself

for knowing something was wrong

but not doing anything.

Why don't you take a break
in the reception room?

There's a sofa there.

We can continue later.

I'm fine.

It's okay, I'll take a look.

Mr. Zhang.

The suspect has been identified.

Tao Yinghong, 56.
Originally from Jiaodao.

She lived in Gangwu New Village.

She worked at a chemical plant.

Okay.

Okay, I got it.

Mr. Zhang.

Tao Yinghong and Wang Xingde
were husband and wife.

JIALIN CRIME POLICE

What's wrong with the girl?

Judging from her reaction,

it looks like survivor syndrome.

The information provided by
these two is quite accurate.

But some of their reactions
do seem suspicious.

We're in the
investigation phase.

These two have to stay at the
station. Watch them at all times.

Mr. Zhang,

you're in control.

How is it on Jiang Feng's end?

I've informed him about
the husband and wife.

We need to focus on the
source of the explosives.

Ms. Du, I found it.

Before Wang Xingde
came to Jialin,

he headed the transport team
at the Jiaodao Erqi Factory.

He is experienced in
driving heavy vehicles.

And there is no record
of any accidents.

He was always a model worker.

Tao Yinghong worked in Jialin
Chemical Plant's QC Department.

Before joining the
chemical plant,

she was a Chemistry teacher
at Jiaodao First High School.

She had a lot of theoretical
and practical experience.

She has published textbooks.

According to the employees,
after joining the company,

Wang Xingde applied many times to
drive the Route 45 bus service.

After getting the job,

he turned down all
company transfers.

He also turned down a
promotion to management.

He was determined to drive
Route 45 until he retired.

After Tao Yinghong went
to Jialin Chemical Plant,

she passed training and exams for
specialized chemical products.

She was assigned to QC.

She was responsible for the
sampling, inspection, and analysis

of chemical products
and raw materials

and the disposal of
defective products.

She was a model
employee every year.

I heard from her colleagues that

she asked to work
overtime every day.

She was often the
last one to leave.

Wang Xingde normally lived at the
bus company's staff dormitory.

It's not far from here.

Xiaoyuan is on his
way with a team.

In the QC department,

Tao Yinghong had direct
access to chemicals.

And the way the chemical
plant processes defects

differs from that
in other industries.

They can't be
directly destroyed.

In the process,

any loss of material
is perfectly normal.

So I think it's possible that Tao
Yinghong took advantage of her job

to obtain the raw
materials to make a bomb.

Okay, I got it.

Tao Yinghong had a background
and skills in chemistry.

She also had access
to raw materials.

It's very likely that
she made her own bomb.

One scouted the route and
the other made the bomb.

From the looks of it,

it's highly likely
that they had a plan

and premeditated this crime.

Yezi.

Distribute all the
information we have so far.

I got it.

Also, notify the Jiaodao police.

Request for their cooperation.

Tell them to start
conducting interviews

to find out about Tao Yinghong's and
Wang Xingde's work and personal lives.

I got it.

A homemade bomb.

1:45 p.m.

Why choose this time?

Come on, you two.

Get some rest here.

We don't need anything for now.

Well,

is there anything else
we can help you with?

Take a break first.

Thank you.

Come to me if you need anything.

When I heard the ringtone,

I couldn't control myself.

I've been conditioned
to expect a blast.

It's okay.

It's all my fault.

Now that we're here, we won't
get any information at all.

It's not your fault.

We can't just help the
police solve cases.

We still have to find a way
to prevent the explosion.

I don't want to be a liability.

We still have a chance.

This way.

It's the one at the end.

Unlock it.
