The Arrest 2 ｜ Short Film (w/ subtitles)

Stop! Freeze! Stop! Stop! The Arrest II I'm going to shoot! Wait, don't shoot. Where'd he go? Over there. Get up. Come on. Leave me. Come on. Just go. Stop! Stop or I'll shoot! Move! What're you doing? Get in there. Call the police. Police? They are the police. Block the door. I'll kill you when I catch you. Freeze! Stop! Hold it! Don't move. Get up. Move and I'll shoot. Don't move. What's going on? Don't come any closer. Call the manager. Boss! Listen up, or I'll shoot. Nobody move. No, don't. Don't move. Stay back, or I'll shoot. Don't get any closer. What's going on? There's a problem. Come on, check it out. You. Stop. Drop the gun, or I'll kill her. Drop it. Stop. Hey chap, what's going on? None of your business. You don't want to do that. Put the gun down. Let's talk things over. He's a criminal. He assaulted his boss. I'm not a criminal. My boss deserved it. He owed us half a year of wages. We're almost out of food. We might as well go to hell together. It's only money right? Put the gun down. Your family will be worried. Stay back, or I'll shoot. If you don't put the gun down… If you hurt them, then it won't end with just jail time. You know what I've been through? I've fought in wars as a soldier. That time on the front lines, our whole unit died. I was the only one left standing. Then, the enemy hit me right in the chest. The bullet missed my heart by one millimeter. This is the bullet wound. See this? You think I'm scared of this? Chap, let me tell you. I went through the same thing you did. When I recovered, I got a job. I didn't realize that I met a corrupt boss. I worked for a year without getting a single cent. I voiced my frustration. But they still didn't pay. I got angry and started a fight. Kill him. Damn migrant worker wants money? You dare to ask for money? We'll kill you. Get lost! Get out of here! Get lost! After I got home, the rage within continued to burn. I had to get revenge on them. You don't pay… Then, I saw a book on the table and a note from my sister. Bro, a friend gave me this book. When you're in trouble, be sure to read it. It'll help you. When I flipped open the first page, it deeply shocked my soul. I finished the book in one go. The next day, my mind was all clear. I've never felt that way before. It opened my heart, and I let go of revenge. From then on, I began my Falun Dafa cultivation. And totally changed my life. What? You practice Falun Gong? Chap, I hope that you can put down the gun. Violence begets violence. Thinking about it still terrifies me. If I had killed my boss then, everything would be over. If you put the gun down now, you can still be a good man in the future. How about it? Do you get my words? Yeah, put the gun down. Put it down, listen to me. Come on, put it down. Give it to me. Arrest him. The Falun Gong. What're you doing? Why're you arresting me? What did I do wrong? Shut up. Why're you arresting him? Why? Are you crazy? Not at all. He's a good person. Why're you arresting our manager? A Falun Gong on a silver platter. Arrest him for distinction. Ouch! Shameless! If it weren't for him, we'd be in so much danger. How dare you hit me? When we go back I'll tell my uncle to fire you. Whatever. I'm not scared of you. Take him and the Falun Gong away. Move! Our manager is a good man. Why do you arrest him? Be careful or I'll arrest all of you. What crime did I commit? I'll settle this with you later. Is everything you said the truth? It's the truth. That is what happened. I didn't do anything wrong. We understand the basic situation. Your case is a bit special. We have to report to the superiors. Chief. Leave. Let me talk to him. Yes, sir. I've been a policeman for many years. I've seen many criminals get arrested. Being arrested for saving someone… You're the first one. Anything you want to say? I just want to ask a question. What do you think about the Tiananmen Square self-immolation incident? I've been asked this question before. Let me put it this way. Anybody with a bit of common sense knows what it's about. Sir! Enter. Chief. Zhao. Here. I'll leave this matter to you. Yes, chief. Chief, how can you let her handle this? Chief! Give me the keys. No. Give me. Give them to me. You're not thinking of letting him go right? He's a Falun Gong. Didn't you hear what the chief said? I make the decisions here. I'm warning you. If you let him go, I'm telling my uncle. What're you doing? Let me go! Shut up. Stay still. You'll regret this. Thank you. If it's too much trouble for you, I can stay. You can leave. Sorry for the trouble. This is risky for you. It's fine. I refuse to believe that good people can get arrested. Let's go. I'll walk you out. You're out of your mind. Let's go. Stop! You harbor… Stop! You're harboring Falun Gong! Get back here! Let me go! We're fully aware of the situation. But, we still want to see the people in charge. Ok. Liu, go get Zhao and Liu Si. Roger. You've worked hard. Please have some water. Secretary Zhang, enjoy the tea. Chief, they're here. Ok. Chief. Uncle. This is the Provincial Police Department's Commissioner Wang. This is Secretary Zhang of the Politics and Law Committee. Uncle. It's good that you're here. Look. She handcuffed me for the entire night. Isn't it torture? You must help me. Be quiet. There's no place for you to talk here. Today, we're here to investigate one thing. Reports say that you released a Falun Gong yesterday. Did you do it? Yes, it was me. Uncle, see that? See how arrogant she is? All I know is that at that time, for a person to step out to persuade the criminal suspect and resolve the danger, it's very commendable. Unlike someone, shivering with fear in the corner. Who're you talking about? Do you still want to be part of the police? Because I'm an officer, I can't arrest someone who did nothing wrong. Nonsense! Where are your principles? What about your positions? Zhao. You have to be composed in front of superiors. But Secretary Zhang, we also have our difficulties. Do you realize how many Falun Gong there are in this county? This much. Five? Five thousand. It's too much work. There's no way to catch them all. Besides, these people didn't break the law. Chief Lin, too many people is not a reason. Yeah? Whether he broke the law or not, an arrest is necessary. When it comes to major issues, our heads must be clear. Secretary Zhang is absolutely right. Just you wait. Sirs. After experiencing this event, I have many new realizations. Look at this statement. People with beliefs. The nation has strength. The ethnic group has hope. I think that the "Truth, Compassion, Forbearance" that they advocate is a fine form of belief. This is a revolt. How dare you say that in front of provincial leaders? Do you want to be fired? That's right. You have to think before you speak. Chief, I meant it. What I said is the truth. How dare you! You see that? She's gone rogue. Perhaps, you have a backer. Secretary Zhang, there's nothing like that. All of us leaders have very strict requirements. Enough. Secretary General Diao is waiting for my report. Prepare for the consequences. Ok. Just wait and see. Secretary Zhang, have a good day. Liu, you may leave. Roger. Tell us. Do you realize your mistakes? I'm not wrong. Your days are numbered. Still acting tough? Sirs. My dream was to be an officer that got rid of the evil to preserve the good. Now, it looks like this profession is not for me. So, I quit. Chief, why are you returning it to her? Chief… Do you still take me as the chief? Even if you want to quit, you still need my permission. Well… Zhao. Even though you're young, you're not afraid to stick to principles. Good job. Uncle, how can you say that to her? We're all aware of the current situation. Zhou Yongkang is done for. Sun Lijun is done for. Fu Zhenghua is done for. Even that enigmatic Secretary Zhang will be summoned by the police soon. You think I'm stupid? Uncle, why're you staring at me? Uncle, what’re you doing? I've wanted to discipline you for a long time. Show me. What? The police ID. And? Uncle… Please don't fire me. I tried my best… Placing you under Chief Lin, I hoped that you would achieve something. Wait, uncle… Go back to operating a tractor. Uncle! Don't you care about me? Get lost! And take off your uniform. I thought that you'd change once you got to the provincial police. Chief Lin, don't you understand me? What's going on here? Commissioner Wang and I already agreed. We only arrest real criminals that harm others. Not Falun Gong. Ah, I see. Those who know the truth are doing the same. Zhao. Yes! You're hereby taking over all of Liu Si's duties. Roger! Also, Commissioner Wang recommended a new partner for you. A recent grad from the police academy. Liu, go get Zhao's new partner. Roger. Sir! Come in. Senior sister. Junior sister, it's you! Yes. Kill you. Senior sister. Seeing how you know each other so well, your partnership will be superb. There's an Internet fraud case. The victims lost hefty amounts. This case is assigned to you two. Tomorrow, 2 p.m. sharp. Will you be ready? Yes, Chief!
