Let's meet Tony, an orphaned boy living in a poor neighborhood, who is bullied and threatened
by a gang.
No mom, no dad.
Bastard.
Things like you will end up begging on the street.
Rubbish.
Rubbish?
Who are you calling rubbish?
Let me show you how rubbish we are.
Indifferent to life, he avoids any conflict or effort, wanting no business with the world
around him.
Luckily, he has Nick, a friend who often stands by him and is like a family.
That's just about you.
Nothing, nothing.
I'm used to it.
By the way, thank you for having me.
But now, I have some stuff to do.
See you later.
Okay.
Life goes on.
But one day.
Oh, what the smoke?
No one else around.
I have to do something.
Is there anyone here?
Alice, an aspiring newly graduated police officer, has been recently accepted into the
Crime Investigation Unit.
One day, as she wakes up, she is surprised to find herself in an unfamiliar place.
Are you okay?
Okay, let's go.
Let me help you.
Let's go.
Are you okay?
Okay, let's go.
Are you fine?
Yes.
Where am I?
Well, actually, you are as depressed as I am.
You are sad.
Um, and how do you feel now?
I'm fine.
But I remember there was a fire in my house last night.
How can I be here?
Well, actually, there was a man taking me here, but he left without telling us who he
was.
So, are you okay?
What does it look like?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Um, well, you were in bad condition, so we just focused on curing you.
Um, where did he go?
I just want to thank him.
Um, well, actually, he's that few, but he had a life-saving victory, so we are still
counting on him.
After Alice recovers, she tries to find the whereabouts of the person who saved her on
that fateful night.
Sorry.
Is that safe?
Sure.
That's you, right?
You are the person who took me out of the fire.
That's you.
What are you doing?
Sorry.
I don't know.
Wait.
Alice stops and looks around the neighborhood, the image of her rescuer still echoing in
her memory.
That's you, right?
You have a scar.
No.
You took me out of the fire.
No, I haven't.
That's you.
That's in my childhood.
No, I don't know you.
Wait.
She lifts her head, determined to continue searching.
But all her efforts seem to be so in vain.
After that fateful night, fortunately, everything is still normal.
But then, whatever comes has to come.
You took me out of the fire.
That's you.
That's in my childhood.
No, I haven't.
That's in my childhood.
That's his boss.
It's two of us.
But something doesn't add up.
Really?
They're starting to doubt this.
Look at him.
He's literally holding the murder weapon.
Yeah, tell them to try one thing.
We got the evidence and the suspect.
Pack the knife and get him to the station.
But we need more than that.
Was there a struggle?
Any witnesses?
Footprints?
Fingerprints?
We can't just pin this on him without looking deeper.
He's always the idealist.
A guy is holding a bloody knife and you think he just happened to be on the scene?
Are you serious?
Get him caught and processed.
Let's make sure the forensics get every angle.
I didn't kill anyone.
I didn't even know what happened.
Yes, Tony.
You just happened to hold a bloody knife near a dead body.
I don't know how the knife got in my hand.
I swear to God.
I played down.
And when I woke up, everything's just like this.
Hey, Tony.
Listen to me, right?
Think carefully again.
Do you see or hear anything before you blacked out?
Anything unusual?
I can't remember.
I just remember that I was trying to stop a fight.
But I didn't kill anyone.
You've got to believe me.
We'll see what the evidence says.
Until then, you're staying right here.
Suddenly, Alice notices a scar with a star tattoo on Tony's arm.
She realizes that Tony is her rescuer.
The person she has been fighting for such a long time.
I think we are making a mistake.
He saved my life once.
So I don't believe that he's capable of this.
Alice, personal feelings don't belong here.
We have work to do.
Hey, Emma.
You mentioned that you've seen someone near the scene, right?
So can you describe them clearly?
I didn't see his face clearly.
But I remember that he was tall, wearing a dark jacket.
It wasn't the man you arrested.
Are you sure?
Yeah, I'm certain.
After the interrogation, Alice investigates further by herself.
Hey, are you the police officer investigating Tony's case?
Yes.
But you are...
I'm Tony's friend.
What are you doing here?
I'm collecting more evidence.
But it isn't very promising.
Have you checked all the cameras here?
We checked all the security cameras here.
Oh, have you checked this camera?
Is there really a camera there?
Yes.
Oh my god.
Why didn't we notice it?
No, let's check it out.
But wait.
Why are you mentioning about this camera for me now?
I tried to go to the police officers.
But no one would listen to me.
They just ignored me.
Okay, let's check it out.
This camera covers the alleyway.
Let's see.
That's him, Liam, the neighbor.
He fits all the descriptions Emma gave.
This is solid.
Let's talk to the truck.
After that, Alice immediately runs to the police station to see Helen.
See, look what I found.
It's a camera.
Do you see?
What?
I told you not to try anymore.
Steve said this case was over.
Tony was clearly the murderer.
His fingerprints were everywhere on the knife.
No, believe me.
I know the whole truth.
Please give it to Steve.
When he sees it, he will change his mind.
Believe me.
Tony, he was...
Injustice.
We have to find the true killer.
But...
No but.
It's our mission.
It's our mission to find the justice for the victim.
And how will you feel if we haven't tried our best?
Okay, so I will give it to Steve.
But if you are wrong, you will have to take responsibility.
Okay, definitely.
Thank you.
The next day, Helen shows the evidence to Steve.
Immediately, the police arrest Liam and bring him to the station for questioning.
Shit.
Wandering around my house.
Isn't it quiet?
Is it?
It's not just about the footage, Liam.
We have a witness who actually saw you at the victim's house shortly before the murder.
And look, the man in the video is wearing the exact same jacket as you.
Isn't that your jacket?
It's nonsense.
Everybody can wear a jacket.
It's not even a roof.
But we got more than that.
Your fingerprints were found in a window ledge in the victim's house.
Can't you claim that?
Last week, she told me to fix her window.
I just dared to help her.
It's nothing.
Okay, so you're saying it's just a coincidence that you were there that night, right?
A coincidence that the victim mentioned being worried about someone stalking her.
And now she's dead.
Here's what I think, Liam.
You went there to confront her.
You didn't mean to kill her.
Things just got out of your hands, right?
You know nothing.
Okay, we know nothing, right?
And tell us, Liam, we know nothing.
If you didn't ruin it.
Okay, fine.
I don't understand.
I was there.
That's me.
We argued.
She kept yelling.
I told her to stop.
I didn't mean to.
I'm sorry.
That's all we need to hear.
Tony is innocent.
Drop his charges immediately.
Two days later, Tony is released.
Hey, Tony.
Can we talk to each other a little bit?
I want to say sorry.
I'm sorry for misunderstanding and up to you.
I don't know what I was thinking.
I'm so sorry.
Actually, you don't need to feel guilty.
I just did what I thought was right at this time.
And I also want to say thank you.
Thank you for trying to find the evidence and helping me out.
Well, but I was so blameworthy.
When I saw you arrest, I thought you may be the culprit.
I didn't realize that you were the person who saved my life that night.
Even though you did it without expecting anything in return,
that day if you hadn't come in time and taken me out of the fire,
I definitely couldn't be here today.
You are not the person I thought you were.
Yes, I can totally understand you.
Anyone who looks like me would think that I was the kind of person
that a murderer or robber or something like that.
But I didn't think much at this time.
I just heard the cry for help and followed my instincts.
Yeah, and actually I didn't think that my act needs to be recognized
because kindness doesn't always get to be rewarded easily, right?
Yeah.
You know, I used to think that you were a man with nothing,
but now I realize that you have the most precious things,
kindness and scars.
And, yeah.
Yeah, maybe.
But sometimes kindness in our heart still has to be rewarded.
I mean, everyone just look at my scars,
but they did not know the story behind it.
But I believe that in the future,
everyone can look at us in different angles
and try to understand in a better way.
Yeah, I think that I need to learn to look at things from various perspectives.
Not all good people are what we expect.
Yeah, but I'm also on the same boat with you.
Hopefully in the future,
the whole community can try to understand and show more sympathy to people like us.
Yeah, and sometimes kindness is hidden in a form that we cannot see immediately, right?
Yes.
Okay, promise always leave kindly?
Okay.
I have to go now, so goodbye.
Alice extends her hand for a final handshake
and as a promise to always leave kindly.
