Who Killed Cock Robin Page #2

---

Oi!

Oi!

Mister?

Mister!

Miss?

Hey!

The boss just announced

those who are to be laid off

You're one of them

It's kind of a punishment

They're downsizing anyway

Who put in my name?

Editor-in-chief

And the boss agreed to it

F***ing prick

Chung-wen did it on purpose!

He seized the chance to kick me out

F***!

We had no way of knowing

that Senator Chang was remarried

Sir

Can you plead with the boss on my behalf?

I already did

But you know?

Senator Chang

is good friends with the boss

Small world

I only heard about it yesterday

They play golf together

In any case,

it's hard to run a paper these days

Or else they wouldn't be downsizing

You were just caught at a bad time

Take this as an opportunity

to have a break

I'll see what I can do

Don't drink so fast

You trying to get pissed?

Beer's here

How's the wife and kid

They're good

But?

A lot of pressure comes with having a kid

Man, this sucks

I'm unemployed

Even Chiu can't save me this time

You'll be fine, don't worry

Chiu will definitely help you out

Just think of this as a holiday

You know

My car, the red one

F***

was really in an accident

That's what happens when you buy used

A lot of them have been in accidents

Nine years ago

There was an accident

on a mountain road in Xindian

I was the only witness

What a coincidence

Damn small world

Things that happen to you

come around in circles

They always come back to you

It's all predestined

This has nothing to do with destiny

Taiwan is a small country

This is what happens with used cars

It's like musical chairs

Today you get his stereo

Tomorrow he gets your door

Don't think too much

Should I drive you home?

I'm fine, just go

Inside, now!

Get inside! -Okay?

Boss,

thanks!

No problem

Let's go

Why all the interest in this car accident?

Nine years ago, I was still an intern

The whole editorial department

went out for dinner

After dinner,

I saw the car accident

I remember Chung-wen

was at the dinner too

Yesterday, when I was looking

at the pictures I took,

I discovered that few of them

had been deleted

Looking back on the whole thing

Chung-wen was the only one

with access to my camera

Good morning, sir. -Good morning

You didn't go home last night?

He)'

Sir

I took pictures of a car accident yesterday

A hit-and-run

Do you think it's worth reporting?

So you think Chung-wen deleted them?

Not sure

What's the point of investigating it now?

That was ages ago

So you want Chung-wen out?

Maggie

I lost my job!

Damn! Chung-wen kicked me out!

Then what's your plan?

I need to find the girl first

You sure she wants to get involved?

I'll try to find her first

Oh right

I remember you saying you've got a relative

working in the Shan-en Hospital?

Is that her?

Hmm

Cousin. -Thank you

I need to go back to work

Thank you

(Household Registration: Miaoli?)

(Medical records: Hsu Ai-ting)

Excuse me

ls Hsu Ai-ting home?

Ting doesn't live here

Do you know where she lives?

Who's asking?

We were classmates of hers

We wanted to see

if she was coming to the reunion

Oh

You're her classmates?

Yes

Classmates?

Oh, that's good

You scared me for a second

Well

Come in?Have some tea

Excuse me

ls that Hsu Ai-ting in the photo?

Didn't you say you were her classmates?

You don't recognize her?

Well

I haven't seen her in ages

I just wasn't sure what she looks like now

Come, have some tea

Ting hasn't come home for a long time

That's right

That's an old photo

(Oriental Beauty)

Something weird about the tea?

My parents are tea growers

I know a lot about it

Award-winning tea like this

costs more than NT$10,000 per kilo

Didn't he say they were poor?

How can they afford such expensive tea?

There's only one place

you can get premium tea like this

Let's go see

sir.

What kind of tea are you looking for?

Hello

I'm looking for Oriental Beauty

Which variety?

Golden leaves

One second

Do you drink this brand of tea often?

It's Mrs. Hsu's

We drink it when we visit her here

In that case, she must be quite well off

Far from it!

Mrs. Hsu

works very hard

Really?

But this tea we're having

is pretty pricey

Right, see?

It's award-winning tea

Have a look

Not many people buy this one, right?

Not too many

It's the only champion tea we sell

Can't get it anywhere else

It's an award-winning tea

Really?

Well?

I remember Ting mailed it over

Her granny says Ting is so nice to her

Don't listen to his nonsense

Excuse me, Granny

We've come to see Hsu Ai-ting

I haven't heard from Ting for ages

Don't know where she's been

But uncle said just now?

Ting sent the tea back?

- Don't listen to his nonsense

It was a present from someone else

I was wondering if you could tell me

Did she ever come to the shop?

I can't remember?

That's Ms. Chang, isn't it?

Ms. Chang?

Ms. Chang?

Yes, she called in this afternoon

Said she'd pick up the tea tonight

Try m.

What's her full name?

What? -How old is she?

Ms. Chang?

I think it's?

Chang Hui-wen?

Or Chang... Ai?

Let me check

She's in her thirties

One second

Sounds about right

Has she lived in the area for long?

How long has she lived here for?

I'm not quite sure

She's been a regular customer

for about a year or two

What I remember about her is

she always pays in cash

Usually, our customers

call us on the phone

and pay by credit card

Then we mail them the tea

Ms. Chang!

Ms. Chang

This man here is looking for you

Here's my card

YOU?

What are you doing here?

We went to see your grandma

At her grocery store

we saw the tea

found our way here

What do you want?

I'd like to talk to you

about the accident

Excuse me,

Ms Hsu

I was a witness to the accident

He was very drunk that night

He was speeding

and got hit

That's about it

What else do you want to know?

Did you see the driver in the other car?

No

When I woke up,

I was already in the hospital

Then why did you leave the hospital?

This all happened years ago

Why are you asking me this now?

Are you writing a report

or something?

I just want to find the truth

and help you catch the person who did this

I don't want to know the truth

What's the point?

My boyfriend is dead

My leg will be like this for the rest of my life

ls there anything I can help you with? -No

I'm fine

I don't want to know any further

Why would you care?

Ms Hsu

Can I have your phone number?

Leave me alone

If you need anything

my number is on the card

It happened so many years ago

Maybe she just wants to forget

We should leave her alone

Hmm
