The First Shot Episode 2 Recap
> The First Shot Recap
Zheng Bei arrived at the Huazhou Police Academy Research Institute. As soon as he saw Gu Yiran's young face, he was stunned and speechless for a moment. Learning that Gu Yiran was actually two years younger than himself, he couldn't help but admire his youth and capability. In contrast, Gu Yiran's attitude was polite but revealed aloofness.
He politely declined to participate in the investigation work of the Haran methamphetamine major case and left in a hurry to attend to his work after a brief conversation. Originally, Zheng Bei had not intended to invite experts to intervene. He was calling Gao Linsheng to report and preparing to return to Haran. But Director Zhao, due to the needs of the case, specifically mobilized a complete set of chemical equipment from the province.
Gao Linsheng therefore issued clear instructions to Zheng Bei: He must ask this drug chemistry expert to join, otherwise, his return to Haran would not be approved. That year, Gu Yiran had analyzed the methamphetamine formula, while Zheng Bei had successfully seized a bag of methamphetamine crystals. This experience destined their meeting today. Now, Gu Yiran had shed his youthful shyness, mature and capable.
He was no longer as taciturn as before, instead speaking and laughing happily, seeming cordial and gentle, but keeping people at arm's length.
Although Zheng Bei was reluctant, he adopted a strategy of "surrounding, chasing, and blocking": blocking his morning exercise, blocking him at the canteen at noon, blocking him when he got off work in the evening, and even when Gu Yiran was jogging on the sports field, he insisted on running with him and expressing his views as if no one else was there, striving to persuade Gu Yiran to join the special task force.
Gu Yiran always maintained the look of a fake smiling boy, gentle and polite in speech, but his attitude was firm on the issue of joining the special task force, and he did not budge at all. Finally, Zheng Bei handed the methamphetamine case materials to Gu Yiran, saying that he was about to return to Haran and hoped he could seriously consider it. Gu Yiran carefully flipped through the materials, and fragments of past cases flashed through his mind.
He then resolutely decided to pack his luggage and fly to the Northeast together with Zheng Bei. After arriving in the Northeast, facing the completely different climate, Gu Yiran, as an authentic Southerner, immediately started sneezing. Seeing this, Zheng Bei immediately drove his own small van and personally took Gu Yiran to the police station to report. On the way, Zheng Bei could not hide his curiosity and asked Gu Yiran the reason for changing his mind.
Gu Yiran just spoke vaguely, saying it was arranged by the school leadership for him to come and assist with the work. After arriving at the police station, Zheng Bei enthusiastically introduced the special task force to Gu Yiran. Unexpectedly, Zhao Xiaoguang and the others had actually turned the old, dilapidated, abandoned first canteen into the special task force base, which made him feel a bit embarrassed.
At this moment, Brother Xiong came in from outside the door and took everyone to meet Gao Linsheng. But Gao Linsheng thought Zheng Bei hadn't invited Gu Yiran and had checked out of the guesthouse early, asking him to find a way to arrange accommodation for Gu Yiran. The drug dealers that the Major Case Team had been pursuing for half a year finally made a move.
The other party planned to trade today, and this time's Boss Xie and the Xiaobailou tragedy that year are all from eastern Guangdong. Zheng Bei notified everyone to disguise themselves for investigation as soon as possible, only leaving Gu Yiran behind. But Gu Yiran insisted on participating in the arrest operation. Zheng Bei instructed the informant Haozi in the car to seize this opportunity for meritorious service and learned through him that Boss Xie was quite lustful.
Subsequently, Zheng Bei disguised himself as a trader and followed Haozi to the Pattaya Resort Hotel. Because he had learned a few phrases of authentic Cantonese from Gu Yiran beforehand, he quickly dispelled Boss Xie's suspicion. Boss Xie brought two women to celebrate. Zheng Bei deliberately showed the beads in his hand and lied that he wouldn't touch women before doing something important.
At the same time, Gu Yiran and others sat in the car outside, obtaining the conversation content through the listening device. Zheng Bei discovered that Boss Xie's room actually hid a grenade. Gu Yiran quickly notified Zhao Xiaoguang and Zhang Xueyao to be careful, while Zheng Bei improvised, pretending to be very interested in this thing and proposed to buy it with money.
Boss Xie told Zheng Bei that people like them who walk the night path must rely on these things for self-defense, and things that save lives cannot be sold. Zheng Bei did not insist, waiting for Boss Xie's subordinate Tielou to fetch the second batch of goods. Exchanging money for goods hand-in-hand, both parties reached a cooperation. Through the listening device, Zheng Bei said he wanted to take Boss Xie to experience the local bathing culture. Gu Yiran heard Zheng Bei say "soul leaving the body," which he had taught him, and couldn't help but curl up his mouth into a smile.
