Murder. Captured. Extradition.

You made the front page three times.

Your execution tomorrow

will make it four.

You've charmed many ladies.

Including my sister.

I really wanted you

as my brother-in-law.

But you had to choose death.

Look at you!

A murderer's face.

Why couldn't you have

a friendly face like Xiang?

You say you're innocent?

Your face says different!

And your name, Ma, it's too short!

And now you've fallen short.

Inspector Xiang's name is powerful!

It has four letters!

Five.

Five?

- Five.

- Are you freaking kidding me?

Why correct my math

at a time like this?

I'll be delighted to watch you die,

Mr. Ma.

You've finally learned

to call me "mister."

Wu Danian, do you take

Katerina Sergejevna Ivanova...

...to be your lawfully wedded wife?

Wu Danian, do you take Katerina...

...to be your lawfully wedded wife?

- I do.

- I do.

I do.

Katerina Sergejevna Ivanova,

do you take Wu Danian...

...to be your lawfully wedded husband?

- I do.

- The rings, please.

Give her the ring.

By the power vested in me by the laws,

I now pronounce you husband and wife.

By the power vested in me by the laws,

I now pronounce you husband and wife.

- Kiss her.

- Kiss her.

On the lips.

Daughter!

Pay attention. This is my daughter.

We've worked up a little treat for you.

- I'm taking him with me.

- Okay.

I don't want to get you in trouble.

No trouble.

That'd be your alibi. Run!

Are you luring me somewhere

to shoot me?

If I wanted to kill you,

I'd have done it long ago.

Step on it!

Wu-Six!

Stop the car. Let's talk.

No more talking!

You have given me a lifetime of lies!

What are you saying?

I'm a revered teacher across China.

I never lied to you!

You read my diary

and expelled the boys I liked.

Well, the joke's on you!

If I hated a boy, I'd put him in my diary.

so you'd expel him!

Insolent twit, I spilled my guts to you.

Too bad!

Maybe you shouldn't have slept

with 40 men! It taught you nothing!

Your wife slept with 40 men?

Your wife!

Did you go see Ma Zouri last night?

I did go see him,

but I didn't sleep with him.

Because I love him!

Ma Zouri is garbage!

How can I shut her up?

How can I shut her up?

- You want to kill her?

- I want to silence the horn!

- Are you a good shot?

- No.

Aim at your mother!

- What if I shoot her by accident?

- She's safe.

There's another car between us.

Aim at the driver and shoot!

I hit it!

Instead of the driver,

you shot the hood off.

One, two, three!

- Is your mother still there?

- I shot the horn!

Keep shooting!

I've told you to repent.

But I'm telling you now, it's too late.

Keep shooting!

Mother, please don't move...

...I may shoot you!

Wu-Six, you're taking potshots at me?

She's still talking. Quickly!

Let's sever our ties...

...once and for all.

Mother, go ahead and kill me!

The Wu women are Valkyries!

- What does that mean?

- My b*tches are tough.

I'll run off alone.

- Go apologise to your mother!

- Damn you!

What mother shoots at her daughter?

- I don't deserve you.

- Go to hell!

Save yourself!

Come back! Come back!

Come back or I'll shoot!

I'll shoot you!

Ma Zouri, wake up!

Told you not to run.

Last time I ran away,

it was because Wanyan died.

But this time, I run because

I don't want Wu-Six to be killed.

- Why'd you shoot me?

- I didn't.

Don't die.

They'll think I killed you.

Wake up!

You wouldn't have shot me, I know.

You're trying to help me. Water....

If you die, I'll kill myself.

I'll shoot myself.

Please don't.

You're not that kind of person, Wanyan.

I'm not Wanyan.

I know. You're Wu-Six.

- Wake up! We're out of gas!

- I know. Run!

- Run?

- Hurry!

- Why'd we stop?

- Out of gas.

- What do we do?

- I'll fill it up.

Wu-Six, are we going to die?

- You scared?

- I should've died long ago.

Ma Zouri, I want to die with you.

- Are you willing to die with me?

- I'm not.

You're unwilling? Why?

Wu-Six, you don't find a man

to die with him.

Live. Be happy.

Wait! Take me with you!

Why'd you wake up?

Are you a masochist or what?

I'm sorry.

But what else can I do?

Stay down.

Wu-Six, farewell.

Here's Ma Zouri!

Shoot me!

But stay back!

I kidnapped Wu-Six.

She's in there.

Why kidnap her?

Wasn't I on the run?

Where to? Here!

Don't you all want to execute Ma Zouri?

Now's the time.

Why not kill myself?

That's no way to go.

For Ma Zouri,

it's either kill or be killed.

How can I shoot myself?

Terrible aim! A breeze!

I'm sorry, Wu-Six.

And also Wu-Seven!

He stole money from his father.

Asked me to launder it.

I said, "I'll spend it all

on an international hookers' contest!"

Where'd I get all those hookers?

I made them up.

So why you gotta kill Ma Zouri?

Beats me.

Everyone believes I killed Wanyan.

Well, I did.

Here's what happened:

She became president

and wanted to marry me. I declined.

I never thought she'd die.

I would've married her if I knew.

Listen, if somebody

wants to marry you...

...don't hesitate.

Marry her!

Otherwise, it could cost two lives.

I survived, but suffered.

So, what happened...

...on that fateful night? How'd she die?

I'll come clean.

That night....

That night...

...the snow hushed the night.

The empress dowager summoned me.

She sat me down and said:

"I need your advice."

I said, "Again?"

Hey, hey! Come back here!

Just like that, I'm shot dead.

Or so I've been told.

Being dead ain't that different

from being alive.

Just wish I knew

what happened to Wu-Six.

Will someone please find out for me?
