Under the Skin Episode 20 (Ending) Recap
> Under the Skin Recap
After technical analysis, the video and audio accusing Du Cheng of killing M were found to be faked, and the alibi video showing Zhou Jun working in the library at the time of the incident was also faked. Therefore, only Tongcheng Group could have faked these. Shen Yi thus suspected that the "? " on M's laptop – the true mastermind – was Chen Zhou. Lu Haizhou and Shen Yi informed Du Cheng of the situation.
Tongcheng Group was about to officially launch the Silver Eagle security system engine. At the launch event, they would also sign agreements with mobile phone manufacturers. After signing the agreements, eighty percent of mobile phones in Beijiang would have the Silver Eagle security system installed. Du Cheng realized that if the agreements were signed, the privacy of Beijiang's residents would all be controlled by Chen Zhou. Shen Yi found a website that Chen Zhou had created during his university years.
This website not only brought Chen Zhou his first success but also became a useful tool for his future human trafficking activities. To stop Chen Zhou's plan, they first needed to find Chen Zhou's criminal evidence, and this evidence must be on one of Chen Zhou's computers. After tireless efforts by the cyber police, they finally discovered that this computer was located inside Chen Zhou's office.
Du Cheng asked Director Zhang to issue a search warrant for Tongcheng Group, but Director Zhang did not have the authority for this. Lu Haizhou applied for and obtained a search warrant from the municipal bureau and handed it to Du Cheng. Du Cheng led the officers from various divisions to Tongcheng Group, while Shen Yi went alone to the Tongcheng Group press conference venue. The police technically cut off Tongcheng Group's external communication signals.
Du Cheng successfully entered Chen Zhou's office using the fingerprint Shen Yi had obtained. Du Cheng carefully observed the office. A trophy Chen Zhou won during his university years caught his attention. The trophy was the key to entering the secret room. Du Cheng successfully found the location of the secret room, but what appeared before everyone's eyes were countless computers.
Tongcheng Group's technical staff stated that after the external communication signals were cut off for a period of time, Chen Zhou's phone would receive an alert and the signal would be restored. At this point, Du Cheng only had five minutes left. Du Cheng first chose the oldest computer. He believed that Chen Zhou would definitely choose this significant computer to store the data.
Subsequently, the technical department successfully extracted several numbers that Chen Zhou frequently pressed based on the fingerprints. Shen Yi, dressed in red, was conspicuous in the crowd below the stage. When Chen Zhou went on stage to give his speech, Shen Yi deliberately sent a message to make Chen Zhou uneasy. He also showed Chen Zhou the numbers Du Cheng had extracted.
When it came time for the signing ceremony, Shen Yi stepped to the front of the stage and exposed Chen Zhou's plan to steal public privacy under the guise of a free security system. Chen Zhou was worried that the computer password would be deciphered, so he intelligently changed the computer's startup password on his own. At the last moment, Du Cheng successfully unlocked the computer with the password and obtained the required file code.
After decryption by the cyber police, the file recorded cases such as human trafficking, instigating Zhou Jun to commit murder, tampering with video and audio recordings to frame Du Cheng, and so on. All the truth was revealed. Chen Zhou still wanted to quibble in the face of evidence. He didn't understand how his password was deciphered. Shen Yi directly stated that Chen Zhou's act of changing the password on his own gave him the opportunity.
He used the human brain's memory of images and colors to force Chen Zhou to use his most primitive belief – the website address from his university years – when changing the password. The police then successfully deciphered the password using the combination of numbers and letters from the website address. Lu Haizhou bid farewell.
Everyone was busy helping Sister Fei put up a bulletin board, while Du Cheng took the case files for the Lei Yifei case from the cabinet in his office. Du Cheng and Shen Yi, wearing police uniforms, came before the portrait of Lei Yifei at the Beijiang Yacht Club. Du Cheng regarded Lei Yifei as a brother and father, while Shen Yi stated that besides Xu Yiduo, Lei Yifei was the person who influenced him the most.
After all, it was the case of Lei Yifei's death that made him transition from a painter to a portrait artist. The case was finally solved, and both of them felt exceptionally relaxed. A person in black secretly entered Shen Yi's studio during the night. He flipped through the case portraits drawn by Shen Yi and examined them carefully. Then, the person in black took a paper cutter and went before one of the portraits. He cut through a layer of the colorful portrait, revealing a black and white eye underneath.
