[Connecting to You]

Finally found you.

The person whose thread is tied to me.

Don't come any closer,

you pervert.

Listen to me.

If you come any closer,

I'll sh**t.

Calm down and listen to me.

Lin Jiakai, you're here.

I just sang all night, and I'm exhausted.
Let's get breakfast later.

Why are you wearing sunglasses?

Where did you buy them?
I've never seen you wear them.

Nothing.

Are you okay, Chaonan?

[The Second Thread]

Are you trying to m*rder me?

[Murphy's Law:
The One I Avoid Keeps Showing Up]

Are you crazy?

You don't think threads just pop up
from bumping into me, do you?

I just wanted to see

if a thread would form between us.

You don't think wearing sunglasses

and not seeing the thread
makes everything fine, do you?

Didn't you say the thread
wouldn't just disappear?

Keep your voice down.

I don't care! I'm going to scold you
for another half hour!

Sorry about that.

Don't be so loud.

I just don't get it.

That's why I wanted
to bump your head and try.

Why would a thread be formed

between the skeptical cop and me?

And it shows a color
I've never seen before.

What color?

Grey.

But it's a bit bright,

almost silver.

And then?

After the thread was formed, I...

What are you doing?

It really is a thread.

What thread?

My very first thread…

and it's with you?

What do you want?

I then asked if I could go home with him.

Pervert.

I was just too excited at the moment.

And then?

After that, the student
explained to the skeptical cop

that I didn't actually ask him for money.

So he let me go for now.

Thank goodness.

But I followed that cop all the way

until he returned to the police station.

Oh my god.

You're not just
a sunglasses-wearing pervert;

you're a pervert with bangs,

and a stalking pervert.

I just wanted to figure out

what was going on
with the thread between us.

Let me tell you.

If you want to be with him so much,

go commit a crime, say, rob a bank.

After he arrests you
and takes you to the station,

you can be with him happily forever.

Who wants to be with him?

Fine, let's stop talking and eat.

The food here is pretty good, right?
Chaonan.

[Qishi Police Station]

What exactly am I doing?

You again.

What are you doing sneaking around?

Nothing.

I just...

This is someone else's e-scooter.
I saw the keys, so...

My phone is ringing.

I'm leaving now.

You dropped something.

Hey!

[Lin Jiakai]

It's Jiakai's?

Yeah.

Where did you find it?

I found it at the entrance
of my police station.

Okay, I'll let him know
to come pick it up.

I wanted to ask you something.

Did you know that Lin Jiakai

does psychic readings
at a street stall for people?

Yes, the Psychic Club.

So you allow that?

Yes, because it's not just Jiakai
who's doing it.

Some other students also read Tarot cards,

do Mayan‑calendar readings,
or give Reiki sessions,

and work with Human Design,
Akashic Records, and things like that.

Our department is quite open to students

doing broad‑ranging research.

How interesting.

I'll leave it to you then.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Ms. Peggy.

Jiakai, come here. Put the report down.

[Psychology Department Lab]

Have a seat.

Put your bag down and do me a favor.

What favor?

I've been learning to write lyrics lately,

but I'm completely stuck.

Give me some nouns related to love.

I want them to be abstract. Go.

But I don't know much
about love, Ms. Peggy.

Nonsense. Aren't you
the darling of the Psychic Club?

Don't people come to you
asking about love all day?

A lot of people do ask, but...

it also brings a lot of trouble.

Really? How so?

I encountered a troublesome person.

This troublesome person

must make it tough for you,
keeping your heart itching every day.

Why are you suddenly
saying this, Ms. Peggy?

Your eyes

keep looking up in the same direction,

which means you're thinking
about the same thing.

Right?

No, no.

-No.
-Right? Who is it? Come on.

Ms. Peggy, it's not like that.

-Flirting?
-No.

It can't be unrequited love, right?

It's an annoying person.

And you kind of like them.
You're keeping secrets.

-Not at all. Don't look at me like that.
-Impossible.

Bingo!

Ms. Peggy, I'll come see you tomorrow.

You're really not being a good friend.

[Psychology Department Lab]

I'm going to be late.

At least help me think of some lyrics.

Is it far?

I'm not sure.

I'm definitely following
the thread tied to you.

Are we not there yet?

I'm not sure about the distance.

I'll definitely help you find him.

Be a little more patient.

Are you sure?

Are we just going in circles?

Can you really see it?

It's probably because the other person
is also moving,

so the direction of the thread
keeps changing.

You'd better be serious.

Or you'll prepare
to compensate me 300,000.

You pervert.

You're so fierce.

Ride faster. My grandpa
rides faster than you.

Where are we?

It's so remote.

Shh? Why would Jeff be here?

Yujing, it is him.

Your thread is tied to him.

The internet is down.

Mine too.

He's Jeff?

He looks nothing like his photo.

He's pretty handsome.

What are you doing? Keep your voice down.

What now?

I have his contact. I'll message him.

Business is here.

He replied.

Wait, let me try calling him.

-Hello?
-Baby, are you busy?

Oh, a little. I'm about to have a meeting.

What's wrong?

I asked you about the money earlier.
What happened to your grandpa?

My grandpa

was rushed to the ICU
in the middle of the night yesterday.

It's a bit hard to get
the medical fees together right now.

Where are you now?

I'm at a cafe right now. Why? Miss me?

Is this the cafe you were talking about?

Idiot. Jerk!

Give me back my 300,000!

Who are you?

Your precious baby, Yujing.

My 300,000!

Let go!

You even called the police?

I'm dead. I'm dead.

Why are you here?

To see if you guys were doing
anything bad.

You followed me?

You followed me?

Don't flatter yourself.

Unbelievable.

Miss,

say it again—

how did you find them?

Jiakai said he could see some threads.

-What threads?
-What threads?

Quiet over there.

You explain.

-Me?
-Right.

Okay, the so-called threads

are like the Matchmaker's red threads,
and various relationship‑binding threads.

They are bonds between people—threads
for father‑son ties, mother‑child bonds,

and even the umbilical cord
counts as one such thread.

Jiakai has a third eye.

He can see where you scam syndicates live.

So he wanted us to come find you.
Is that right?

-You believe this nonsense?
-We haven't questioned you yet.

It's true.

That's not the point.

The point is I want to know

how many people these guys scammed

and how long they'll be locked up for.

Sit down. Sit down.

Everyone calm down.

You on the side, sit down too.

You, you speak first.

When we were dating,
he said he was in another city.

But I found him in this city.

I took a plane.

He even told me he was at a cafe,

but he was sitting in that...

Long-distance relationship.

Then let's check the plane tickets
and train tickets.

Sure, go ahead.

Need help?

No need. It's just a small scratch.

I'll put some medicine
and slap a band‑aid on.

You look like
you got beat up pretty badly.

Not that badly.

Just got pushed down a couple of times.

Did we know each other?

Perverted College Student.

Is this how you hit on people?

I wasn't trying to hit on you.

I've never hit on anyone, okay?

You have a nosebleed.

That's a lot.

Blood?

[Secure Custody Area]

Don't look, Chaonan.
You're afraid of blood.

That's a lot.

That's a lot. That's a lot.

[Secure Custody Area]

We thank Lin Jiakai

for helping the police fight crime

and bust the scam ring.

On behalf of the Qishi Police Station,

I present
this certificate of appreciation.

Three, two, one.

Okay. The photos are taken. Thank you.

All right, go do your work.

Jiakai, I heard from my colleague
that you were initially

identified by the victim
as an accomplice of the scam ring.

Yeah.

There was a bit of a misunderstanding
at first.

Fortunately, the truth was found out.

It's strange. Why are you so brave?

How were you bold enough to charge
straight into the scam‑ring's hideout?

No.

I was the one who got beaten.

You're very brave.

We need to learn from you in the future.

I admire you so much.

-If we have similar cases in the future—
-Chief, I've got a school class later.

I need to leave now.

I thought I had a lot
to talk to you about.

Okay, take care.

How does it feel to be a hero?

I don't know. I have no idea.

You've got a weak bladder.

You peed for so long.

You're so young.

It's going to be hard
for you in the future.

I just drank too much water.

It's not about the weak bladder...

He didn't even let me finish.

Perverted College Student.

Are you in a hurry?

What's wrong now?

About Zhang Yujing's fraud case,

I have some questions to ask you.

When Yujing and I were making
a statement last time,

I told you everything.

I know. I've read the statement too.

You said you relied on

your third-eye ability

to find them,

right?

Yeah.

Zhang Yujing wanted
to jump off the building,

and you happened to save her.

Then the advice you gave her
while telling her fortune

ended up getting her scammed
out of 300,000 NT dollars.

Later she came to report the case,

and you happened to help her
catch the scammers.

Wow.

So many coincidences.

Do you still suspect me

because you stubbornly refuse
to believe I have

the ability of the third eye?

You're right. I don't believe it.

And to be honest,
if it weren't for the investigation,

we might never have met in our lives.

I don't have any relationship problems
to ask you about.

Although you don't have
relationship problems,

your green thread,
which represents family affection,

is light-colored and rough.

It means your relationship
with your family

is not very good.

You're wrong.

I just went to a restaurant
with my mom last night.

We were doing great.

Fine, you failed to prove it.

I can prove it in other ways.

Does your police station have

any open missing‑child cases?

I can use my third eye to help find them.

Our station has confidentiality rules,
so I can't disclose that.

What about paternity disputes?

It's faster to just get a DNA test, okay?

Then, what about informants?

I can at least be your private informant,
right?

Lai.

What's wrong? A case?

Yes.

There's a burning smell
coming from a house,

but no one answers the doorbell.

Where?



-I'll head over first.
-Okay.

That's my house.

[Peggy Talks Love Psychology]

Two-Minute Love Live Stream.

It's fleeting, so don't miss it.

I'm Ms. Peggy.

Today,

I'm going to share

with everyone

Murphy's Law.

Murphy's Law.

Why have the comments suddenly spiked?

Let me see.

Anything that can go wrong

will go wrong.

The one you like
is destined not to like you.

And the one you hate
keeps clinging to you.

Those afraid of being cheated on
will eventually be cheated on.

Okay.

The things I wanted to say

have all been said by everyone.

It seems everyone

[Very Familiar with Murphy's Law]

is very familiar with Murphy's Law.

But

who is Murphy?

Is Murphy a psychologist?

Murphy,

full name Edward Murphy.

He was an American aerospace engineer.

You didn't know this, did you?

[A competitive streak with nowhere to go]

Okay.

Alright,

since everyone knows

today's topic,

I will just

read and reply to the comments.

[Pah, Leader, Metal‑Style Sting]

Every time I am romantically
involved with someone,

I worry that they will eventually
be taken away by someone else.

And sure enough,
after 4 or 5 months of ambiguity,

they all decided to date someone else.

Alas, Murphy's Law.

Before you lament,

maybe you should read
what you've written first?

After 4 or 5 months

of being romantically involved,

you still didn't confess

or define the relationship.

Are you out of your mind?

[Accent came out.]

Why

were you still staying in the same place?

I think you might need

to think about it.

I can only say

that it's truly well‑deserved

that you're single.

Alright,

that's it for today.

Bye-bye.
