Dead Ringer Episode 23 Recap
> Dead Ringer Recap
Wei Xiaochen had just returned home when she was arrested by the police, who were waiting for her, on charges of money laundering. Yuan Shengjie questioned Axi and Amin about what had happened. He learned that the police had obtained evidence of Yang Junjie and Mag's money laundering from Feifei's computer. They were using the method of acquiring shell companies and then selling them repeatedly to launder the money. Mag pointed to the mastermind as Madam Jin, and Liang Xi was Madam Jin. Wei Xiaochen was living under the identity of Liang Xi, so she was taken away by the police.
Yuan Shengjie already knew that the real Liang Xi was still alive, and he requested Axi to inform him before formally charging Liang Xi. Magaming came to Hong Kong as an undercover agent. He noticed that Yuan Shengjie had searched for the goods and quickly left, indicating that the goods were fine. However, Greyhound informed him that the meeting place had changed. He realized that something had changed but had no chance to report to his superiors. He witnessed a confrontation between five robbers and Wei Xiaochen.
Yuan Shengjie had a video meeting with Officer Tang from Singapore at Yang's office. Tang was reluctant to reveal the identity of the undercover agent, fearing that if too many people knew, it would be more dangerous for Magaming. Yuan Shengjie understood their concerns, but this would make their cooperation more difficult. Yuan Shengjie arranged to meet Wei Xiaochen at a coffee shop using the clue of the professor. Wei Xiaochen arrived at the coffee shop, thinking she would meet Yuan Shengjie, but she unexpectedly saw the nightclub manager there, realizing that Yuan Shengjie knew she had been working at the nightclub.
Wei Xiaochen explained that she worked there to pay for her father's medical treatment, and although Yuan Shengjie understood, he found it difficult to accept and was emotionally affected. Feifei caused a scene at the modeling agency and managed to escape only after buying two items. He memorized two order numbers and saw a car outside, so he calculated one of the order numbers to match the license plate of the car outside and immediately informed Wei Xiaochen while providing another license plate number.
Yuan Shengjie suspected that Yang Junxiong was connected to the two recent murders, and he ordered an investigation into Yang Junxiong, even though it would displease his superior. When he received a text from Wei Xiaochen, he went to the midway warehouse to investigate alone, and all his movements were being closely monitored.
In the car of Master Long, the real Liang Xi was sitting. Liang Xi had Yang Junjie and Mag brought into the police station to warn them to return the money, or they would go to jail for real next time. When she saw Yuan Shengjie approaching, she quickly had Master Long drive away. Yuan Shengjie sensed a familiar feeling from a passing figure and noted the license plate number. He asked Axi for help in investigating it and unexpectedly found that the car was owned by Golf 19's parent company, and the person inside was Liang Xi.
After Wei Xiaochen was taken to the police station, she remained tight-lipped, not saying anything, no matter how much Officer Ren Kang questioned her. It wasn't until Tu Wennuo brought a lawyer to rescue her that she was finally released from the police station. Yang Junjie realized that this time it was just a warning from Liang Xi. If he didn't return the money, she would take further action. But he had already guessed Liang Xi's true intentions, so he contacted her proactively.
When Yang Junjie saw Liang Xi again, he knew she was the real Liang Xi because her smile was the same as the one he had seen at the Education Bureau. This time, the USB drive Yang Junjie brought was fake, and Liang Xi knew without even checking. However, she was confident that Yang Junjie would hand over the real one because his wife and daughter were already kidnapped. Yang Junjie's expression changed as soon as he saw his wife and daughter were under control, but he quickly put on a smile and told Liang Xi that she wanted Wei Xiaochen to die in her place, and Liang Xi wanted to live on as Wei Xiaochen.
Wei Xiaochen saw the photos that Yuan Shengjie brought and recognized the woman in the car as Liang Xi, but she didn't understand why Liang Xi was doing this. Yang Junjie, who was infiltrating with Tu Wennuo, visited Wei Xiaochen, and he hid an electric baton under the floral materials. While Wei Xiaochen was distracted fetching a cup and scissors, he attacked and kidnapped her. Yang Junjie wanted to exchange Wei Xiaochen for his wife and daughter, and Liang Xi agreed to meet tomorrow at the Yuen Long warehouse to carry out the exchange.
Yuan Shengjie couldn't find Wei Xiaochen and went to her home to look for her. After finding her dropped phone on the ground, he received a call from Yang Junjie, reminding him to come to the Yuen Long warehouse early the next morning if he wanted to see Wei Xiaochen. Every move Yuan Shengjie made was monitored by Qiong. Yang Junjie knew he had arrived and immediately took Wei Xiaochen inside to exchange hostages. Weiting Zhao hid behind a broken window, and Yuan Shengjie quickly realized that it was an excellent sniper spot. He rushed over there, and it was because of his determination that Wei Xiaochen was not shot on the spot. While Yuan Shengjie and Master Long were fighting, he used an electric wire to electrocute Master Long. However, he was soon attacked and quickly fell unconscious.
The relationship between Yang Junjie and Mag was very complicated. This time, he wanted to save his wife and daughter because he couldn't bear to see his own daughter in danger, but he was willing to sacrifice his wife. Mag had always believed that Yang Junjie didn't trust her, which is why he asked her to hold the bitcoins but didn't give her the password. Yang Junjie quickly reassured Mag that she was just as important as his daughter, making Mag happy. Yuan Shengjie and Wei Xiaochen both went missing, and Tu Wennuo immediately sent Weiting Zhao to find them.
When Yuan Shengjie woke up from his coma, the woman in front of him claimed to be Wei Xiaochen. He noticed that her subtle actions were completely different from the Wei Xiaochen who had been used as a hostage that day. He became suspicious, and when they found ketchup in their food, they used it to fake blood, tricking the guard into opening the door. Then, they suddenly attacked the guard and managed to escape. Yuan Shengjie confirmed that the woman in front of him was Liang Xi by referencing the incident with the pineapple bun. However, he was afraid of catching her and potentially involving Wei Xiaochen, so he had to keep a close watch. But Liang Xi quickly joined Tu Wennuo, using force to control Yuan Shengjie and making him unable to follow her.
Liang Xi voluntarily let Tu Wennuo know that the real Liang Xi was still alive and then moved to the remote residence she had prepared before. She wanted Tu Wennuo to kill the imposter she thought was Liang Xi in order to protect Tu Wenya. At that point, she could assume Wei Xiaochen's identity.
