WEBVTT

00:12.791 --> 00:13.750
DAD: COMING HOME NOW?

00:13.833 --> 00:15.208
I'm almost home.

00:26.333 --> 00:27.625
WANG YU-CHING: I'M ALMOST HOME

00:27.708 --> 00:29.583
Let's eat together when I get home.

00:53.166 --> 00:56.250
OKAY! I'LL WAIT FOR YOU TO COME HOME
READ, 10:37 p.m.

01:07.041 --> 01:08.041
Yu-ching.

01:09.583 --> 01:10.583
Yu-ching.

01:15.166 --> 01:16.833
Yu-ching!

01:22.541 --> 01:24.708
AGENT FROM ABOVE

01:25.833 --> 01:28.041
THE GHOST FORGE

01:28.541 --> 01:30.875
TAIPEI CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT
CENTRAL DISTRICT PRECINCT

01:37.875 --> 01:39.375
It's you again.

01:40.916 --> 01:45.500
We've been waiting… for two juniors.

01:46.625 --> 01:47.708
Where's the captain?

01:49.708 --> 01:50.833
The chief?

01:53.166 --> 01:56.125
I'm the one in charge. Let's have a chat.

01:56.208 --> 01:59.875
When was the last time you
and Heilung Hall had a turf war?

01:59.958 --> 02:03.041
My client is engaged in legal business.

02:03.125 --> 02:04.958
He has no connection with gangsters.

02:08.666 --> 02:10.375
We have records here

02:10.458 --> 02:12.500
that since 2018,

02:12.583 --> 02:16.291
there have been three turf disputes,
and dozens of fights.

02:18.083 --> 02:19.916
My client is a shareholder.

02:20.000 --> 02:22.500
He doesn't participate in operations,

02:22.583 --> 02:24.000
dealing with minor disputes.

02:24.083 --> 02:25.500
Minor disputes?

02:25.583 --> 02:27.500
A bid worth almost 100 million

02:27.583 --> 02:32.166
was just won by Heilung Hall
moments before this massacre.

02:32.250 --> 02:33.541
Isn't that odd?

02:38.083 --> 02:41.750
You can't catch the culprit
so you bully honest citizens instead.

02:42.666 --> 02:44.750
You're paid with taxpayers' money.

02:45.333 --> 02:48.041
Do you know how much tax I paid last year?

02:48.625 --> 02:49.916
-Mr. Shen.
-Sir.

02:50.000 --> 02:51.250
Take note.

02:52.166 --> 02:54.208
Next time I pay taxes,

02:54.291 --> 02:57.000
buy some dog food too to feed them!

03:07.416 --> 03:08.291
Sorry.

03:08.375 --> 03:09.500
Let's go, sir.

03:10.541 --> 03:12.708
DAUGHTER DIDN'T COME HOME
SO I WENT OUT LOOKING

03:12.791 --> 03:14.166
FOUND WANG YU-CHING'S BACKPACK

03:16.958 --> 03:20.083
Please, sir.
You must find my daughter Yu-ching.

03:20.666 --> 03:23.250
There's only the two of us. We…

03:23.750 --> 03:25.458
only have each other.

03:25.541 --> 03:26.750
Please.

03:30.708 --> 03:34.458
FOUND WANG YU-CHING'S BACKPACK IN LANE 48

04:10.625 --> 04:12.291
Please! No, don't.

04:13.083 --> 04:14.125
No!

05:03.500 --> 05:06.083
Shen-Lung Crown Prince made a statement:

05:06.166 --> 05:08.541
"Chi-sha is very likely the mastermind.

05:08.625 --> 05:11.083
He promised him all sorts of powers

05:11.166 --> 05:15.166
in exchange for killing people,
and extracting their vital spirits."

05:18.541 --> 05:19.416
Vital spirits?

05:25.125 --> 05:27.625
Vital spirit is one of the three souls.

05:27.708 --> 05:29.958
The spirits of those who died unjustly

05:30.041 --> 05:32.833
can be magically refined
into malicious spirits.

05:33.666 --> 05:37.916
At Heilung Hall, Chi-sha manipulated
these spirits to murder them.

05:38.000 --> 05:40.416
No doubt Vasavatti is involved.

05:41.916 --> 05:43.083
Look at this.

05:44.000 --> 05:45.750
Missing girl, Wang Yu-ching.

05:45.833 --> 05:49.000
Evidence of Vasavatti
in the area where she disappeared.

06:02.958 --> 06:04.750
WUMENG OCCULTIST KIDNAPPED WANG GIRL

06:06.000 --> 06:07.500
Where did you get this?

06:13.083 --> 06:16.208
You should bear in mind
your tasks are not complete.

06:16.291 --> 06:17.416
Before I replace you,

06:17.500 --> 06:20.458
Vasavatti wants
to invade this world again.

06:25.208 --> 06:26.750
You're handling that?

06:26.833 --> 06:28.958
The Prince and I are dealing with it.

06:29.041 --> 06:31.916
This case is about human life,
so I will help you.

06:33.958 --> 06:34.958
Thanks.

06:43.750 --> 06:45.875
There is something
I'd like your help with.

06:48.791 --> 06:51.458
We have a warrant
to search Liu Kuan-fu's house.

06:51.541 --> 06:54.458
If you're available,
I'd like you to go and take a look.

06:54.541 --> 06:56.291
Check it out for ghosts and stuff.

07:02.250 --> 07:05.500
I know he's a suspect
in setting fire to your family house.

07:05.583 --> 07:09.375
But Chao and I have worked hard to collect
all sorts of evidence against him.

07:09.458 --> 07:11.750
Hopefully, we'll soon be able
to put this scumbag--

07:11.833 --> 07:13.541
You're afraid I'll kill him.

07:17.458 --> 07:19.333
Your men will be there too.

07:19.833 --> 07:22.291
I'm atoning for my sins.

07:22.375 --> 07:23.666
I can't add another.

07:42.291 --> 07:44.416
Chao'll already be there.
We'd better hurry.

07:44.500 --> 07:46.250
-Yeah.
-Han.

07:47.708 --> 07:49.458
Do you have a moment to talk?

07:55.750 --> 07:56.750
Um…

07:57.875 --> 08:01.083
Is my brother still in Dongfeng Market?

08:03.541 --> 08:06.583
The Underworld Messenger
didn't come for him.

08:07.208 --> 08:08.583
He should still be here.

08:09.083 --> 08:12.958
Well, after you opened my third eye,
I still haven't seen him.

08:14.125 --> 08:15.250
I know.

08:15.333 --> 08:16.875
You were both very close.

08:18.250 --> 08:19.708
But for both your sakes,

08:20.875 --> 08:22.666
you mustn't dwell in the past.

08:23.541 --> 08:28.208
It's possible he doesn't want to rekindle
your memories of that awful fire.

08:29.000 --> 08:30.708
Um… and you?

08:31.208 --> 08:33.666
You went down to see your parents,
didn't you?

08:33.750 --> 08:35.000
Are they well?

08:38.583 --> 08:40.041
I can't face them.

08:49.541 --> 08:50.833
That's why…

08:51.750 --> 08:53.875
family matters like this

08:54.375 --> 08:57.583
remind me of how much
we must treasure them.

08:58.083 --> 09:00.208
Because one day they'll be gone.

09:01.125 --> 09:03.916
I have many regrets.

09:06.916 --> 09:08.625
Well, I'll be going.

09:16.083 --> 09:18.250
DONGFENG EATERY

09:24.583 --> 09:26.375
-Sis!
-Hmm?

09:26.458 --> 09:28.875
-You've worked enough. Come and eat.
-Okay.

09:30.875 --> 09:32.250
Wow!

09:32.333 --> 09:34.166
Every day is something different.

09:34.750 --> 09:36.958
-You're such a genius.
-Of course I am.

09:37.041 --> 09:39.375
How can I not be with a sister like you?

09:40.375 --> 09:42.416
Hey! Don't pinch.

09:42.500 --> 09:45.916
Just eat up,
and let me know what you think.

09:51.916 --> 09:55.291
You have a genius younger brother
making dinner for you every night.

09:55.375 --> 09:57.458
Do you know how lucky you are?

10:20.291 --> 10:22.666
All right, let's move. Yep, in here.

10:28.291 --> 10:29.125
Holy shit.

10:30.250 --> 10:31.083
CID

10:31.166 --> 10:33.416
Why is Mr. Liu's house
full of wronged souls?

10:38.375 --> 10:40.875
-Captain, this is what we've found.
-Okay.

10:42.625 --> 10:45.375
Hey. We've searched everywhere,
but haven't found anything.

10:45.458 --> 10:47.833
Chao, this place is spooky.

10:52.416 --> 10:54.500
TEMPLE FIRE, TWO DEATHS
ARSON LINKED TO LAND DISPUTE?

11:25.541 --> 11:26.666
What do you want?

11:26.750 --> 11:28.041
To take his life.

11:28.958 --> 11:30.625
He caused my death.

11:33.708 --> 11:34.875
Black command.

11:35.375 --> 11:36.333
A token?

11:37.666 --> 11:40.458
The Underworld permitted me.

11:40.541 --> 11:43.541
Wherever he goes, I go also.

11:44.458 --> 11:45.541
Those guys too.

11:59.291 --> 12:02.125
Hey, this place is pretty weird.

12:03.791 --> 12:05.958
They all died because of Kuan-Fu.

12:06.833 --> 12:10.416
-They want revenge.
-Can't you help them cross over?

12:12.208 --> 12:13.833
They possess a token.

12:13.916 --> 12:17.541
An eye for an eye is forbidden,
but it's different in hell.

12:17.625 --> 12:20.208
A wronged soul can be avenged.

12:20.291 --> 12:21.541
Gods can't interfere.

12:23.666 --> 12:25.416
All right, let's pack it up.

12:27.250 --> 12:28.166
Let's go.

12:42.666 --> 12:46.250
DONGFENG MARKET

12:52.500 --> 12:53.958
Uh, who is she?

12:54.583 --> 12:55.458
Why are you here?

12:56.041 --> 12:57.041
Oh.

12:58.333 --> 13:01.625
A while back, when I was
at the Third Crown Prince's temple,

13:01.708 --> 13:03.375
something strange happened.

13:03.458 --> 13:05.666
Someone died, but their soul wasn't there.

13:05.750 --> 13:10.000
The Shen-Lung Prince has been caught,
and vital souls returned.

13:10.083 --> 13:11.625
I helped out too.

13:12.208 --> 13:13.958
Yeah, I heard all about it.

13:14.041 --> 13:15.750
That's why it's strange.

13:15.833 --> 13:18.791
And I checked for news from other temples.

13:19.375 --> 13:21.000
There are other missing souls.

13:22.833 --> 13:23.708
Go on.

13:23.791 --> 13:25.958
By my count, at least six.

13:30.875 --> 13:32.833
Do you think the one behind it is…

13:33.791 --> 13:35.125
Chen Chi-sha?

13:37.708 --> 13:40.250
Yeah, but Chen Chi-sha
has already retired.

13:40.333 --> 13:42.916
-Why would he be behind it?
-This is Vasavatti.

13:43.000 --> 13:44.916
Oh.

13:45.000 --> 13:47.833
Oh man, this is really bad.

13:48.916 --> 13:51.750
What's stopping the gods
getting rid of these demons?

13:51.833 --> 13:53.666
Why is this left up to you?

13:54.416 --> 13:55.250
Now, Miss.

13:55.333 --> 13:58.750
Gods can't get involved directly
in the Human Realm,

13:58.833 --> 14:00.666
especially with human problems.

14:02.166 --> 14:06.625
However, sometimes demons
want to use humans to do bad things.

14:06.708 --> 14:11.041
In that case, the gods send a message,
and their agent handles it.

14:12.041 --> 14:13.750
Is what makes me unlucky.

14:15.500 --> 14:17.333
And what happens if you lose to the demon?

14:23.458 --> 14:25.375
If I lose, I lose.

14:26.708 --> 14:30.041
Hey, hey. Believe in yourself, okay?

14:30.125 --> 14:33.416
Hey, Chen Chi-sha has killed
so many people.

14:34.000 --> 14:35.791
What, don't you care at all?

14:36.625 --> 14:37.875
I'm retiring soon.

14:37.958 --> 14:41.041
This demon requires
a more powerful god or agent.

14:41.625 --> 14:42.791
It's not my problem.

14:42.875 --> 14:45.125
I can't believe this.

14:45.708 --> 14:48.125
Fine then. God, you're useless.

15:14.500 --> 15:18.208
Vasavatti appeared again.
Many people died, and yet you do nothing.

15:18.291 --> 15:22.500
You think this is a game,
and it's just a snap to fix things.

15:22.583 --> 15:24.833
There are rules that apply to gods.

15:24.916 --> 15:28.666
Those pesky fuddy-duddies up there
are very strict, you know.

15:28.750 --> 15:31.708
If I make a random move
without their permission,

15:31.791 --> 15:34.166
then I'm violating the rules.

15:35.208 --> 15:39.166
Do you want me to end up like that monkey,
trapped under a mountain?

15:39.916 --> 15:42.958
Why can't gods
properly handle things like this?

15:43.041 --> 15:46.250
You have fighters
and other agents from above.

15:46.333 --> 15:49.750
A war between the demons and gods?

15:49.833 --> 15:53.708
It'd be catastrophic if we fight
in our true forms. The world ends.

15:54.958 --> 15:57.583
I think you guys just don't want
to get your hands dirty.

15:57.666 --> 15:59.041
But it's fine if we die.

16:02.291 --> 16:05.541
Are you afraid
of fighting Vasavatti again?

16:09.166 --> 16:10.791
I know I don't have a choice.

16:12.000 --> 16:14.166
But I doubt I'll win.

16:15.291 --> 16:18.958
Yeah, you're right.
He's well-prepared for it.

16:19.541 --> 16:20.500
Hmm.

16:20.583 --> 16:22.333
I don't think you'll win either.

16:23.166 --> 16:27.208
Hey. Aren't you meant
to provide me with encouragement?

16:27.291 --> 16:28.291
Oh.

16:29.166 --> 16:30.791
Then I'd be lying to you.

16:31.583 --> 16:36.708
Gods won't influence your free will.
Or tell you how to do things.

16:39.041 --> 16:41.000
You're afraid of responsibility.

16:43.041 --> 16:45.416
If the outcome finally isn't good,

16:45.500 --> 16:50.250
you can just shrug it off and say,
I made you do it.

16:54.375 --> 16:58.208
But don't forget,
for every task the gods bring,

16:58.958 --> 17:01.875
you have the right to decide
whether to accept.

17:03.458 --> 17:05.791
You can save all these souls.

17:06.583 --> 17:08.291
It all depends if you're willing.

17:12.500 --> 17:15.083
You're a good-for-nothing brat.
That's what you are.

17:17.041 --> 17:19.250
Make your decision soon.

17:43.625 --> 17:45.625
Shh.

18:08.000 --> 18:10.208
I retrieved all the surveillance footage

18:10.291 --> 18:12.041
from near where Yu-ching went missing.

18:12.125 --> 18:14.166
No trace of Chi-sha at all.

18:14.250 --> 18:17.125
But if you extrapolate
from these crime locations,

18:17.208 --> 18:19.750
Chi-sha's whereabouts should be
in one of these three areas.

18:19.833 --> 18:20.666
12 DEAD, 1 KILLER

18:20.750 --> 18:23.375
WANG YU-CHING,
HEILUNG HALL, SHEN-LUNG TEMPLE

18:24.250 --> 18:27.125
Someone died, but their soul wasn't there.

18:27.208 --> 18:30.250
Other incidents have occurred elsewhere.

18:30.333 --> 18:32.083
Could also be Chi-sha.

18:32.791 --> 18:34.583
I'll check what area these were.

18:44.000 --> 18:44.916
What?

18:45.000 --> 18:49.375
When you saw Kuan-fu,
did it stir the hatred in your heart?

18:53.583 --> 18:54.583
It did.

18:55.666 --> 18:57.166
But I'll leave him to you.

18:57.750 --> 19:00.125
What if even the law can't deal with him?

19:01.750 --> 19:04.625
He may escape the law, but not karma.

19:05.208 --> 19:07.250
So many would like to see him in hell.

19:07.333 --> 19:09.083
I'd need to get in the queue.

19:12.166 --> 19:13.083
Let's go.

19:32.625 --> 19:33.583
Hey.

19:34.375 --> 19:37.041
Go upstairs and bring me the tea cake.

19:37.125 --> 19:38.625
-I want to try it.
-Yes, boss.

19:56.833 --> 19:58.625
It's this good?

20:09.000 --> 20:11.375
Mmm!

20:54.000 --> 20:55.583

20:55.666 --> 20:57.166
Officer Chao!

20:57.250 --> 20:59.750
Oh, please! I want to confess.

20:59.833 --> 21:00.875
-Please.
-What?

21:00.958 --> 21:03.125
I want to confess. Lock me up.

21:03.208 --> 21:07.166
-Mr. Shen, slow down and explain.
-I… I don't want to be bothered by ghosts.

21:07.250 --> 21:09.666
Please! I'm sorry!

21:09.750 --> 21:11.875
I'm sorry. Please!

21:12.500 --> 21:14.416
Leave me alone! I'll confess.

21:15.541 --> 21:19.458
Officer Chao, save me.

21:19.541 --> 21:21.916
-The house of ghosts drove him crazy.
-Huh?

21:22.416 --> 21:25.708
Officer Chao, please. I'll admit
to everything, everything he did.

21:25.791 --> 21:27.291
I'll become a state witness--

21:27.375 --> 21:30.041
Mr. Shen, you'll lose your bar card
if you do that.

21:30.125 --> 21:31.750
What's more important than my life?

21:32.375 --> 21:35.291
Please. Save me, please. I'm begging you.

21:39.625 --> 21:41.291
Tell us where Chi-sha is.

21:43.750 --> 21:44.583
I know.

21:45.208 --> 21:47.791
I'll tell you everything.

21:51.583 --> 21:53.791
Hey, Han. You guessed right.

21:53.875 --> 21:57.000
Those ghosts drove him crazy.
He told us where Chi-sha is.

21:57.083 --> 21:58.833
I'm sending you the location.

22:25.416 --> 22:29.083
It's been a while, my old friend.

22:37.375 --> 22:39.083
Didn't you promise to retire?

22:39.750 --> 22:42.750
And yet you're still
stealing vital spirits.

22:43.250 --> 22:45.500
That girl, she's not here.

22:46.041 --> 22:48.375
There are many uses for Yu-ching.

22:51.875 --> 22:53.833
So she's with your new disciple?

22:56.083 --> 22:57.708
He's not my disciple.

22:59.125 --> 23:01.750
You're right. He's better than you.

23:01.833 --> 23:05.208
His magic has no scent.
Even I was deceived.

23:05.291 --> 23:07.791
He has two female ghosts.
One calls you uncle.

23:08.500 --> 23:11.041
She said Vasavatti even threatened you.

23:11.666 --> 23:13.000
What's up with that?

23:19.291 --> 23:21.375
Save me.

23:21.458 --> 23:22.916
Save me.

23:23.958 --> 23:25.541
-Father?
-Uncle.

23:25.625 --> 23:27.083
-Save me.
-Please…

23:27.166 --> 23:29.291
-Those two ghosts…
-Save me.

23:29.375 --> 23:32.958
The one in white is my niece.
The one in red is my daughter.

23:33.541 --> 23:35.666
Tien-chi exhumed their corpses,

23:35.750 --> 23:39.333
and used Vasavatti's power
to control their souls,

23:39.416 --> 23:41.166
and turned them into malicious spirits.

23:41.250 --> 23:43.791
Long time, Master Chen.

23:47.416 --> 23:48.750
Why so cold?

23:48.833 --> 23:52.291
They're threatening me,
monitoring my every move.

23:52.375 --> 23:53.750
And if I don't work with them,

23:53.833 --> 23:58.041
Tien-chi will let the souls
of these two girls dissipate.

23:58.625 --> 24:00.000
Tien-chi?

24:01.125 --> 24:03.541
DEMON KING OF THE SIXTH HEAVEN
ENTICES MAN

24:06.375 --> 24:07.458
Five years ago,

24:07.541 --> 24:11.291
you promised me that if Vasavatti came
to you again, you'd tell me.

24:11.375 --> 24:13.000
So what if I did?

24:13.083 --> 24:16.291
If you hadn't stripped me
of my magical weapons,

24:16.375 --> 24:19.000
I wouldn't have turned out this way.

24:25.375 --> 24:28.500
As long as you prevail against
the Crown Prince's agent,

24:28.583 --> 24:31.416
your precious daughter and niece
will be free.

24:37.833 --> 24:39.166
Father!

24:40.916 --> 24:42.416
Save me.

24:43.083 --> 24:45.083
Please, Father.

25:11.791 --> 25:13.333
This is my karma.

25:15.708 --> 25:16.916
Vasavatti.

25:17.666 --> 25:18.875
He made you this.

25:19.458 --> 25:20.958
It's what I am.

25:22.416 --> 25:23.916
I'm unpardonable.

25:26.708 --> 25:29.583
But those two girls
are innocent creatures.

25:34.333 --> 25:35.625
I'm not here to fight you today.

25:40.208 --> 25:44.375
He turned me into living death
to win against you.

27:09.916 --> 27:11.166
Where's Yu-ching?

27:19.916 --> 27:21.416
I don't want to kill you.

27:21.500 --> 27:23.916
You're saying that to a dead person.

27:24.541 --> 27:26.125
See you in hell.

28:57.750 --> 29:00.500
Nine Dragons Fire Barrier?

30:14.583 --> 30:16.791
I knew this day would come.

30:21.375 --> 30:24.750
Full moon, magical formation, center.

30:56.041 --> 30:59.000
Master Chen. It's been a long road.

31:06.958 --> 31:09.083
DONGFENG MARKET
s been a long road.
