The Second Woman Page #4

My brother seems to be totally clueless.

That's why Im here to check and see.

Nan, have you made sure yourself whether...

...it's Huixiang or Bao that we're seeing?

I'm going to the back of the hill.

The back of the hill? Why?

I'll go with you.

Fingerprints...

if we have some objects...

...with Baos fingerprints to

to compare with those of her right now...

we can easily find out the truth.

Right?

She had stayed in my house, too.

The fingerprints of both...

... must have mixed together.

It's very difficult to verify.

Is there some place she'd have gone only...

... by herself?

Let me think.

I will, too.

I'd like to stay a bit longer.

Can you go down by yourself?

Sure.

Why would the scholar on the bridge...

...return to this place?

Maybe it's harmless to meet him.

Greetings, scholar.

You only care about Huiniang.

Scholar, doesn't this red gown...

...remind you of someone?

She's... dead.

She's disillusioned and...

this caused an accident.

She visited the lake but

met her death instead.

Please come in.

I'll be ready in a minute.

This is for you.

Put it on and see if it fits.

I've missed you.

If there was no Bao...

...will you be with me?

...nan told me about...

... the disappearance of Huixiang.

I'm here to gather some clues.

It's very quiet here.

Very quiet, indeed.

At times it makes you feel scary.

It's disturbing.

Fan...

do you know why...

...I didn't report to the police

about Huixiang...

...after all these days?

Why?

I think it's Bao, and not Huixiang,

who's staying with me now.

They have different scent.

But...

I must say Im not at all sure.

Because at time I smelled Huixiang...

seems like she's nearby.

It may sound absurd.

Before I lost my sight...

...I couldn't differentiate between them.

They liked to swap cloths to fool me...

... when they were young.

It was at those times that...

... I was completely confused...

...about the two...

of them.

Luckily I was able to...

... finish Zhaorong's dress in time.

I lost the original.

The director was mad at me.

Just be more careful.

Lots of unfortunate things have happened.

Huixiang has...

watch out.

There was uncle song...

... who died inside the seaside motel.

The body was discovered only...

... after more than ten days.

Poor chap!

More than ten days!

With this weather, the smell must be awful!

True.

We dare not walk near the place.

A haunted house no one dares go near...

why is there light?

Fan...

I have the whole picture now.

What do you mean?

Didn't you say when you...

... were at the troupe earlier...

someone told you that Bao...

... was seen in the props room...

...but was spotted at the gate...

... in the next brink?

So what?

I'll have to go to the island

for more clues.

Hey!

What?

Don't go alone.

There's nothing I can do...

... if something happens to you.

Stop worrying. I'm not a kid anymore.

Hey...

what again?

The report on the fingerprints

has been issued.

What does it say?

There were two sets of fingerprints...

... on the hairpin.

One of them was identical with...

... that on the tape recorder.

The hairpin belongs to Huixiang.

That means...

Yup. That proves my assumption.

Eat something.

What happened the other night?

I'm asking you! What the hell happened?

Let go to the back of the hill and talk.

You and nan...

Is there something going on...

... that Im not aware of?

There are things that should remain unsaid.

Stop asking.

Let's find a shelter.

It's alright. The thunder will pass.

Huixiang...

why do you have to do this to me?

There are things...

...that should remain unsaid.

As long as you believe...

... isn't that good enough?

Let's concentrate on tonight's

performance first. Okay?

Fan...

what happened?

How did you find out Im here?

You texted me.

Not me. It must be Huixiang.

Huixiang?

She tied me up here.

Where's she?

Dont know. She said something like...

Bao is the female lead for...

... the first time tonight.

Female lead?

I'm nan, please leave a message.

Sh*t!

I hope I didn't regain consciousness.

Why? Thank god you're still alive.

Otherwise,

Bao and all of us will be heart-Broken.

Bao is the lead for the first time...

... in tonight's show.

The mountain is bidding farewell to the sun.

The moon's reflection is

bathing in the lake.

The breeze is stirring up my sadness.

Separated from the outside world...

I was held captive in desertion.

I was suffering great pain...

even in my dreams I found myself...

... trapped in a dead-End.

Nan found Baos hairpin in the hills.

This proves that they were there.

But how come they were out on the sea?

Did Huixiang mention this to you?

Yes.

Do you remember our

childhood days when jun...

...and all of us went sailing

on a stolen boat?

How Ive missed those simple days.

I recall the time...

... when I almost fell into the sea.

It was you who saved me.

Is that so?

I have forgotten.

Huixiang...

let's steal a boat and go sailing.

Honestly, you and nan...

look!

What a lovely sky!

Look at it! It's so beautiful.

No. I won't.

Huixiang!

I must make sure what's going on among us.

Bao, there are certain things...

...that should remain unscathed.

No.

No.

I must make sure of them.

If that's the case,

things will come to an end.

I don't care.

Even if the result is disastrous,

I have to do that.

Do you know what he likes best?

Do you know where his erogenous zones lie?

Pervert!

If you don't know,

What exactly do you want to make sure?

I know! I know!

Why is he nan?

Why?

There's one more thing you should know, too.

That is, you're a rotten actor.

And a rotten girlfriend, too.

Bullshit! It's bullshit!

Bao...!

Huixiang...

save me, Huixiang...

Bao!

Come, come!

You want to drown me?

You want me dead! You are sick!

Bao! Bao!

Bao!

Did Huixiang explain why she didn't go home?

She remained unconscious...

... in the sea for a while.

But she was choked and came back...

... to life by the water.

She held herself to the boat...

...and made sure Bao went ashore

before she swam back.

Bao's clothes were all soaked.

She changed in Huixiangs clothes and left.

The person whom uncle tai...

... saw the other morning...

...was in fact Bao.

But things just happened...

... too suddenly and horribly.

According to Huixiangs personality...

she'd be totally clueless in facing Bao.

That's why she was afraid to go home.

I see now.

She must have hidden inside the old theatre.

Didn't you mention that there were...

... signs of people staying there?

Right. I bumped into her hiding place.

That's why she had to find another place.

Intermission for 5 minutes.

One thing keeps bugging me.

Why didn't Bao say anything...

... about what happened on that night?

Did she really think

she had killed Huixiang?

It might have been like that...

she found out soon that...

... Huixiang was still alive.

Because Mrs. li from the next door...

... received a call from Huixiang.
