When a Snail Falls in Love Episode 12 Recap
> When a Snail Falls in Love Recap
Ye Lanyuan arrived at the company's stone storage warehouse. He walked in and carefully examined it, recalling that there seemed to be another warehouse. A staff member remembered that the door to the last warehouse was blocked. Ye Lanyuan instructed two workers to break open the sealed door. In the dim warehouse, there were only a few large boxes. When the box was opened, it revealed a wooden case, with the words "Ye's Instruments" carved on it.
Ye Lanyuan became thoughtful. He took the case back to his office, and after much deliberation, prepared to take it to the police station. Because inside the case, there were drugs. Who was causing trouble within the Ye Group, using the warehouse as a drug hideout? Ye Lanyuan knew very well that it was Hu Zhishan. " Ding-dong," Ji Bai's doorbell rang. The door opened, revealing Xu Xu's petite figure, standing at the doorway with a lunchbox.
She had brought Ji Bai soup porridge and medicinal tea to help his wounds recover. The two sat down in a warm atmosphere, slowly eating the porridge, bathed in the soft light. Having grown accustomed to cold bodies and murder scenes, this moment was a rare, peaceful tenderness. Xu Xu raised a question: Hu Zhishan and Lu Ge were both connected to Jiahe Market. Could there be any link between them? Ji Bai smiled.
He thought Xu Xu brought the porridge and tea to curry favor with him and discuss the case. However, Xu Xu sincerely stated that her concern for Ji Bai was simply because she was willing to do these things for him. Back at the dormitory, Xu Xu drew a little snail on paper, a little snail that wanted to give a pearl to a lion.
Yao Meng recognized Xu Xu's budding feelings and bluntly stated, "The snail has fallen in love with the lion." Xu Xu held her comic book, her cheeks flushed, and she murmured to herself, "Fallen in love with him." Ye Lanyuan came to Ji Bai's office, recounting how diligent Hu Zhishan had been following him over the years.
Hu Zhishan was a low-key and honest person, so much so that Ye Lanyuan had never been on guard against him and had no idea that Hu Zhishan was secretly colluding with criminals, doing things detrimental to the Ye family. As the police were inspecting a large truck on the road, they unexpectedly discovered that the truck was filled with trafficked women locked inside. The truck drivers attempted to escape but were caught.
They were Wan Dacai and Liu Shun from the 521 gang, truly incorrigible. Yao Meng and Zhao Han were eating wontons at a small stall. They wanted to ascertain the situation around Jiahe Labor Market, hoping to follow the clues and find Hu Zhishan. When Zhao Han was taking pictures of Yao Meng, a suspicious figure seemed to flash across the lens. Ji Bai was attentively listening to a recording of a criminal.
The recording mentioned that Lu Ge was expected to appear soon. Ji Bai prepared to thoroughly investigate Guan Nan, the criminal arrested last time, to extract information about Lu Ge from him. To atone for his crimes and earn merit, Guan Nan agreed to Ji Bai's request: Yao Meng would disguise herself as his fellow villager, a beauty to be presented to Lu Ge, to infiltrate the tiger's den and penetrate the criminal organization.
Ji Bai, Xu Xu, and other police officers disguised themselves as a couple and passersby, secretly protecting Yao Meng, and also managed to ascertain the exact news that Lu Ge would appear tomorrow. The border office replied, reporting that three drug trafficking teams had been discovered approaching China's border.
Ji Bai held a meeting for everyone, clarifying that "Lu Ge," also known as "Old Master," would personally come to inspect and exchange goods at Stone Street No. 5 Courtyard, ten kilometers from Jiahe Market. Lu Ge was cunning and ruthless, her actions secretive. Even her subordinates like Chen Yong and Guan Nan had never seen Lu Ge's true face.
Xu Xu analyzed from Lu Ge's unique and tranquil residences, which even came with dedicated chefs, that she must be someone who pays great attention to self-care in her life. Xu Xu further pointed out that ever since Zhang Shiyong was kidnapped, numerous clues had pointed towards the Ye family.
For example, the trading company named "Jinmaitian" (Golden Wheatfield): more than half of Ye Group's raw materials, imported instruments, meters, and tools from Myanmar and Cambodia were sourced through this company. The person in charge of this company had connections with Jiahe Market and was also linked to Ye Zixi's financial issues. Ji Bai concluded that the person colluding with criminals within the Ye Group was Hu Zhishan.
Therefore, Hu Zhishan was guilty of more than just murder; he had now fled abroad to Myanmar. A meeting was also being held at the police headquarters. The police suspected that the drug base of Jindun Group was Longxi Group, but the person in charge, Ye Lanyuan, had not broken the law, so there was only one possibility—Hu Zhishan.
Ji Bai's team's responsibility was to begin operations at 4 AM tomorrow, arrest Lu Ge, and capture them all in one fell swoop. Cracking down on drug traffickers—they are a group of vicious and desperate outlaws.
