WEBVTT 00:38.550 --> 00:39.890 Let him go... 00:40.390 --> 00:42.200 Please... let him go... 00:42.760 --> 00:45.330 Please... let him... go... 00:46.210 --> 00:48.960 Please... let him... go... 00:58.550 --> 01:00.030 Year 22. 01:00.660 --> 01:03.470 Sheng was my 175th target. 01:04.500 --> 01:05.800 Ever time I completed a mission, 01:06.660 --> 01:09.950 I would enjoy the brief moment of silence that followed the extinguishing of a life. 01:10.520 --> 01:11.560 And that was because, 01:13.220 --> 01:17.240 ever since I was young and lived with a large family, 01:17.240 --> 01:19.020 silence had always been a luxury that I couldn't have. 01:20.420 --> 01:22.080 Why doesn't this kid talk? 01:22.080 --> 01:25.020 He's been like that since he was young. Maybe he's got some kind of problem. 01:25.020 --> 01:27.040 A problem? Well, did you take him to see a doctor? 01:26.260 --> 01:28.250 I told you, don't mix pig snouts and hearts in the same stir-fry. 01:27.040 --> 01:27.960 Who cares? 01:28.250 --> 01:29.600 It's hard to digest. 01:29.600 --> 01:32.520 I've been butchering pigs for decades! I should be allowed to have my own recipes! 01:32.520 --> 01:34.180 It's all because you guys don't believe in me. 01:34.180 --> 01:37.130 Otherwise, I would've become the Butcher Hero already! 01:37.130 --> 01:40.090 A child crying must mean they're hungry. Feed them more meat! 01:40.090 --> 01:44.540 I came from a family of butchers, but I always thought they could've done better. 01:45.270 --> 01:49.980 A proper butcher should be like an assassin—minimal talking. 01:50.850 --> 01:54.340 Because the more you talk, the more people will know. 01:55.290 --> 01:57.510 And even if pigs don't have the power to take revenge on you, 01:57.510 --> 02:00.120 they could still curse you after they die. 02:01.300 --> 02:05.150 So, I swore to become the coolest assassin. 02:08.660 --> 02:13.570 Most mammals have sensory nerve endings in their hair follicles and skin. 02:14.110 --> 02:18.800 These nerves only trigger when they experience pressure and touch. 02:19.500 --> 02:24.100 When triggered, they release endorphins and oxytocin into the body, 02:24.100 --> 02:26.750 which relieves pain and promotes relaxation. 02:26.750 --> 02:29.140 This temporarily lowers stress hormones, 02:29.140 --> 02:32.260 which then slows the heart rate and calms the animal. 02:36.510 --> 02:39.060 It's not that I was trying to diminish their pain. 02:39.620 --> 02:41.450 I just really couldn't stand the noise. 02:51.070 --> 02:55.190 Year 19. A program called FOMO appeared. 02:53.460 --> 03:00.340 Went to a restaurant I frequent and saw this handsome guy! Does anyone have his contact info? He looks like a regular at this restaurant. I wonder why I never noticed him before. It must be because I was too focused on the food! Waaah!! o(T__T)o!! 02:55.810 --> 02:58.360 Anyone could present themselves on that platform, 02:58.360 --> 03:00.700 striving to become the "hero" in everyone's hearts. 03:00.340 --> 03:03.010 Little Girl Xiaolinzi I found out he works at the butcher shop! I snuck a short video of him. Boss, give me five pounds of whatever's in this video~~ (heart) (heart) 03:01.920 --> 03:04.060 I thought this was laughable. 03:04.760 --> 03:08.400 How could you gain trust from total strangers? 03:05.850 --> 03:09.180 Hot Pot With No Cilantro He's so focused when he's butchering meat. His knife work is experienced, with a quiet demeanor and professional skill! I'm going to be a repeat customer from now on. 03:11.150 --> 03:14.270 Doesn't this look like professional photography?! I found out that when he's not busy working, he likes to spend time daydreaming (the cool kind), so I snuck a video of him. I did tell him in the end, and he even agreed to take a selfie with me! 03:17.070 --> 03:21.820 Fast Foodie Xiaoyi Another day of looking at the cute guy! Boss, pack up all the meat! Us girls are buying everything today! 03:17.600 --> 03:21.820 But not long after, I became the biggest laughing stock. 03:28.490 --> 03:30.450 As I saw my Trust Value continue to increase, 03:30.870 --> 03:33.540 I realized just how easy people were to deceive. 03:34.310 --> 03:37.340 But who was doing the deceiving? 03:43.420 --> 03:49.170 Perhaps the majority of people were like me— lonely, yet yearning to enjoy solitude. 03:54.420 --> 03:57.170 Your third uncle's little girl wants you to give her your autograph. 03:57.170 --> 03:59.100 Just write "Study hard!" on it, will you? 03:59.100 --> 04:00.260 Uncle! A red pocket! 04:00.260 --> 04:04.410 Hey, Wang Yi! I just bought two new stores! Come do the ribbon-cutting for me! 04:04.410 --> 04:07.870 I learned two things from this farce. 04:04.410 --> 04:08.680 This here is my eldest nephew! I raised him! Isn't he so handsome? 04:09.380 --> 04:13.290 The faster my blade, the more difficult it was to talk. 04:16.290 --> 04:21.170 How about it? Want to consider joining MG and becoming a real hero? 04:38.270 --> 04:41.890 Year 20. I finally left that crowded, 04:41.890 --> 04:45.700 noisy place to become an assassin. 04:46.860 --> 04:49.160 I took the coolest name— 04:50.460 --> 04:51.530 Ghostblade. 04:54.690 --> 04:57.540 I never searched for any information on my mission targets. 04:58.040 --> 04:59.080 Because I knew 04:59.390 --> 05:01.460 that they were definitely the ones in the wrong. 05:07.510 --> 05:09.080 Greed is wrong. 05:09.720 --> 05:11.390 Weakness is wrong. 05:12.470 --> 05:13.600 Violence is wrong. 05:14.950 --> 05:16.350 Lying is wrong. 05:16.890 --> 05:18.520 Betrayal is wrong. 05:21.170 --> 05:24.600 And knowing too much is also wrong. 05:32.170 --> 05:35.530 Sheng knows that it's not me who wants him killed. 05:36.500 --> 05:41.130 So I hope he won't curse me in his death. 07:47.320 --> 07:50.660 Things have already gotten to this point. Could you at least say something? 07:50.660 --> 07:54.810 Zhang Lan was a hostage I rescued behind Bagel Alley after I became a hero. 07:56.090 --> 07:59.550 176 days later, she became my wife. 08:27.040 --> 08:29.500 Don't come any closer! Or else I'm gonna kill her! 08:32.740 --> 08:35.200 Hey, I'm talking to you! Did you hear me?! 08:35.200 --> 08:37.800 Don't come any closer! Hey! 08:43.510 --> 08:47.440 I had never seen anyone as calm as her. 08:54.510 --> 09:00.490 I was even worried that the neon lights illuminating her face would startle her. 09:00.490 --> 09:02.410 Hey, you punk— 09:19.930 --> 09:22.310 From that day onwards, I understood. 09:23.960 --> 09:26.030 Romance wasn't sweet nothings. 09:27.210 --> 09:31.210 It was a silent mutual understanding. 09:33.150 --> 09:36.290 Groom, do you take her to be your wife, for richer and for poorer, 09:36.290 --> 09:39.790 in sickness and in health, for better and for worse, 09:39.790 --> 09:42.990 and vow to remain by her side to love and protect her? 09:44.190 --> 09:48.520 Bride, do you take him to be your husband, for richer and for poorer, 09:48.520 --> 09:52.360 in sickness and in health, and vow to remain by his side? 09:57.300 --> 09:59.130 I do. 10:14.160 --> 10:16.880 Your test results are back. Nothing serious. 10:16.880 --> 10:18.490 You fainted because of anemia. 10:18.490 --> 10:20.360 Remember to keep an eye on your diet. 10:21.050 --> 10:23.870 And I do have one other thing to tell you— 10:23.870 --> 10:26.030 Congratulations! You're pregnant! 10:28.740 --> 10:31.210 The moment she put down her phone for the first time 10:32.100 --> 10:33.830 was like watching a movie half-way, 10:34.630 --> 10:37.930 and the theater lights suddenly turned on. 10:51.810 --> 10:53.260 I used to think 10:53.260 --> 10:55.410 that maintaining independence was a cool thing. 10:56.230 --> 10:59.360 But now, I want a complete family. 11:01.460 --> 11:03.400 So I changed myself. 11:03.400 --> 11:05.570 I believe that you can, too. 11:08.660 --> 11:11.160 One's beliefs can be a shackle, 11:11.160 --> 11:13.750 but if you're willing to put aside your obsessions, 11:13.750 --> 11:17.360 then everything you've been forcefully given will disappear, too! 11:20.420 --> 11:24.970 So... let go of this hero persona. Leave the public eye. 11:26.220 --> 11:28.390 Our parents are getting old. 11:28.390 --> 11:31.810 I want us all to move in together and enjoy one another's company. 11:34.330 --> 11:37.400 Enjoy... one another's... company... 11:38.550 --> 11:41.740 I've been butchering pigs for decades! 11:41.740 --> 11:45.850 I would've become the Butcher Hero already! 11:51.540 --> 11:53.570 I told you not to mix pig snouts and hearts in the same stir-fry. 11:53.570 --> 11:55.160 It's hard to digest. 11:57.210 --> 12:01.410 This here is my eldest nephew! I raised him! Isn't he so handsome? 12:03.970 --> 12:08.050 Hey, Wang Yi! I just bought two new stores! Come do the ribbon-cutting for me! 12:10.810 --> 12:13.620 Say something! 12:14.550 --> 12:18.770 I know you still can't talk, but can you at least nod or something? 12:22.450 --> 12:23.940 Nod... or something...? 12:24.530 --> 12:27.870 I won't push you. We should respect each other's decisions. 12:28.380 --> 12:29.900 I'll take our daughter with me. 12:29.900 --> 12:32.470 That way, you get to keep your peace and quiet. 12:54.180 --> 12:56.520 My family wasn't wrong about me. 12:57.190 --> 12:58.550 I do have a problem. 13:00.500 --> 13:02.570 I don't know how to express emotions. 13:03.600 --> 13:06.240 Because I can't even tell what emotions are. 13:07.250 --> 13:11.070 All I know is what I should do. 13:19.780 --> 13:21.860 I began to understand why my father 13:21.860 --> 13:26.050 observed more than he participated when teaching me to butcher pigs. 13:31.030 --> 13:37.730 I also understood what was left behind in Sheng's words and eyes right before he died. 13:50.920 --> 13:54.120 Bagel Alley? What a coincidence. 13:54.910 --> 13:56.010 Where'd she go? 14:02.090 --> 14:03.540 It's him again? 14:05.010 --> 14:06.580 Who's following Nuonuo? 14:24.970 --> 14:26.180 Th-There's a creep following me! 14:26.180 --> 14:27.220 Creep? 14:29.950 --> 14:34.420 I did say that everyone who dies by my hand is in the wrong. 14:36.070 --> 14:40.310 Harassing Nuonuo is more wrong than anything else. 14:45.220 --> 14:46.920 He parried my attack? 15:27.130 --> 15:28.800 Damn creep! Get lost! 15:27.570 --> 15:28.800 It's a young girl? 15:31.180 --> 15:32.220 What's going on? 15:32.620 --> 15:34.230 Did I misunderstand? 15:34.230 --> 15:36.580 What are they doing? 15:39.170 --> 15:45.230 At that moment, the words said to me by Zhang Lan came to mind. 15:46.200 --> 15:48.480 She's 18. That means she's a legal adult now. 15:49.540 --> 15:53.150 She's already an adult, and you picked that as her birthday present. 15:53.150 --> 15:55.520 That's something she would've liked as a child! 15:56.480 --> 16:00.740 Her favorite clothes, food, hobbies... you don't know a damn thing about her! 16:00.740 --> 16:04.110 Did you ever really care about her at all? Have you ever really understood her? 16:05.710 --> 16:09.680 It's fine. You're already dead to her, anyway. 16:10.300 --> 16:11.420 You can keep that for yourself. 16:21.920 --> 16:25.480 It appeared to me that I really didn't know anything about my daughter anymore. 16:25.940 --> 16:29.520 Not what she was thinking, nor what she wanted to do. 16:31.170 --> 16:35.490 Turns out there are some questions that can only be answered when they're answered out loud. 16:35.810 --> 16:41.580 At that moment, I felt an urge to open my mouth. 16:43.020 --> 16:44.920 But I still couldn't manage to say anything. 16:45.710 --> 16:49.240 My lips had been sealed by my believers. 16:55.100 --> 17:00.430 I had to make an even more detailed plan to know her, to understand her. 17:29.330 --> 17:31.250 I tried the ice cream she always ate. 17:32.360 --> 17:35.220 I listened to every song by her favorite artist. 17:35.900 --> 17:38.340 I watched every movie she watched with her friends. 17:39.820 --> 17:44.610 I discovered that her hobbies and thoughts changed constantly. 17:45.660 --> 17:49.170 It wasn't Zhang Lan or myself who influenced these changes on her. 17:49.790 --> 17:53.820 It was this pink-haired girl who was always at her side. 17:55.690 --> 17:56.730 Best friend 17:58.400 --> 18:02.210 Weird clothes! 17:58.400 --> 18:02.210 Pink-haired girl 17:58.410 --> 18:02.210 Best friend 17:59.330 --> 18:02.210 All-nighters 18:00.620 --> 18:02.210 Bad influence 18:04.630 --> 18:08.740 Sometimes, those who reshape one's life aren't their parents, 18:09.300 --> 18:11.380 but their closest friends. 18:12.180 --> 18:15.960 Nuonuo never used to stay up late, and she rarely drank. 18:17.170 --> 18:18.820 But with her, 18:19.850 --> 18:21.430 things changed... 18:34.920 --> 18:38.260 Yell it with me! Damn creep, get lost! 18:38.800 --> 18:40.510 D-Damn creep, get lost... 18:41.060 --> 18:43.660 Damn creep, get lost! 18:44.020 --> 18:46.900 I never intended to interfere with her growth, 18:48.300 --> 18:50.720 but seeing her being swayed by a bad influence, 18:50.720 --> 18:52.230 my mountain of love... 18:53.260 --> 18:55.410 began to erupt like a volcano. 19:13.480 --> 19:15.780 Hello? Speak up! Who's this? 19:18.070 --> 19:19.400 You're not that— 19:19.400 --> 19:24.160 Unknown caller 19:24.440 --> 19:27.670 Ugh, gross. You're a real creep. 19:27.670 --> 19:28.710 We're in trouble! 19:29.050 --> 19:30.630 The Glimmer Laboratory is under attack! 19:30.630 --> 19:31.380 What?! 19:31.380 --> 19:33.380 There have been multiple explosions! 19:33.380 --> 19:34.660 Our staff is rushing there right now. 19:34.660 --> 19:36.020 This is an emergency situation. 19:36.020 --> 19:39.620 Everyone, please send your heroes right away to render aid. 19:40.570 --> 19:43.730 Excuse me, but do you think I could post about the situation on FOMO? 19:43.730 --> 19:46.050 Save it. Things are already chaotic enough. 19:46.820 --> 19:49.060 I'll contact Ghostblade. 19:55.460 --> 19:59.360 Seems your iron fist management isn't quite perfect. 20:00.680 --> 20:05.950 Why would he be in a call with someone else? 20:09.660 --> 20:11.290 Who were you on the phone with just now? 20:11.880 --> 20:15.710 Head to the Glimmer Laboratory right away. There's been an incident. 20:23.320 --> 20:24.510 Wang Nuonuo! 20:26.280 --> 20:28.710 Are you guys all right? How is Area Zero? 20:28.710 --> 20:30.660 The Fear... It's leaked... 20:30.660 --> 20:31.700 What? 20:32.580 --> 20:33.850 You guys leave first. 20:35.770 --> 20:36.810 Dad! 20:39.640 --> 20:42.340 Loli! What are you doing here?! 20:42.340 --> 20:44.210 And what are you wearing? 20:44.710 --> 20:48.660 Are you okay? Is this what you were researching at home all this time? 20:50.420 --> 20:54.010 Professor Luo, the attacker is still inside... 20:54.010 --> 20:57.340 Ghostblade is here. He'll clean up the scene. 21:09.780 --> 21:12.790 Were you wearing this thing trying to play hero? 21:12.790 --> 21:16.490 I let you come here so you could study in more areas of science. 21:16.490 --> 21:18.560 I didn't let you come here to do dangerous things! 21:25.220 --> 21:27.280 How did it go, Professor Luo? 21:28.980 --> 21:31.020 The Commission accepted my proposal. 21:31.020 --> 21:33.790 I'm to head to the spaceship wreckage right away. 21:34.830 --> 21:36.350 That's great. 21:36.350 --> 21:39.240 But isn't the timing a little bit tight? 21:39.240 --> 21:40.880 Shouldn't you prepare a little more before heading there? 21:40.880 --> 21:43.240 The Commission wants this dealt with as soon as possible to avoid any leaks. 21:43.240 --> 21:47.710 The only people coming with me are the ones who experienced the attack last night. 21:47.710 --> 21:49.290 They're my trusted core staff. 21:49.290 --> 21:52.580 Just you lot? That's too dangerous. Why don't I— 21:56.850 --> 21:59.340 Excellent! Ghostblade can keep a secret. 21:59.340 --> 22:02.360 We'll have nothing to worry about if we bring him along. 22:04.180 --> 22:05.990 That's exactly my intention.
