"My cat's gone missing. I suspect my neighbor killed it …"
Ye Shen chickened out!
The Chief of Police was already reaching for his gun!
Without a doubt, he knew that they would kill him before he got to tell the truth!
So, he steered the conversation away.
But it made the Chief suspicious.
The duplicitous Chief of Police and the adulterous Jiang Yan took turns visiting Ye Shen's home, attempting to determine if he was truly blind:
First up, the Chief aimed a throwing knife at Ye Shen to see if he would flinch.
The knife flew out, but Ye Shen didn't move.
Then it was Jiang Yan's turn to visit Ye Shen's home. When he turned his head, she put on a terrifying mask...
Despite her attempts, Ye Shen wasn't scared.
In the face of a life-threatening crisis, he was on a roll with his acting!
"I admire this guy..."
"He's truly performing for his life!"
"When Jiang Yan tried to frighten Ye Shen, I too jumped in fright..."
"His mental fortitude is otherworldly!"
All these tests conducted in quick succession allowed the audience no respite. Yet eventually, the protagonist's cover was blown.
Because Jiang Yan had the audacity to poison the coffee right in front of Ye Shen.
No matter how great a performance Ye Shen managed to put on, he couldn't refuse the coffee offered by Jiang Yan, could he?
He could do nothing but pretend to spill it. Unfortunately, it had no effect.
In reality, as soon as Jiang Yan walked through the door, she had slipped poison into the snacks she'd given him.
The poison rendered Ye Shen blind.
Thus, Ye Shen went from pretending to be blind, to an actual blind man.
Jiang Yan was a perfect example of a vicious temptress!
Seizing Ye Shen's moment of unconsciousness, she deceived Ye Shen's girlfriend, Sofi:
"I got too lonely, Ye Shen and I slept together."
Meanwhile, Sofi had learnt from a child who observed Ye Shen from downstairs that Ye Shen had been pretending to be blind all along...
Ye Shen's calm and satisfying life suddenly collapsed!
He became a true blind man and lost the trust of his girlfriend...
Yet, the adulterous Chief of Police still didn't want to let a 'helpless blind man' go, wanting to kill him once and for all.
How can a blind man outrun the Chief of Police?
Fortunately, Ye Shen was lucky enough to be saved by a taxi driver couple who also took him to a hospital and found a doctor to examine his eyes.
The audience finally breathes a sigh of relief at this point in the plot.
From the moment Ye Shen witnessed Su Tai being killed, he had been in a life or death situation, causing the audience to be on edge.
Watching the suspenseful narrative, they also felt aggrieved!
"Jiang Yan is just too wicked!"
"And that damn Chief of Police is ruthless!"
"Ye Shen had decided to not go to the police, yet these two still won't let him off..."
What comes next, the counterattack?
Just as the audience started to expect this, they were once again befuddled by numerous plot twists already present in the film!
The plot once again causes immeasurable damage to the protagonist!
The doctor and taxi driver couple weren't trying to save Ye Shen?
It was apparent that the trio intended to sell Ye Shen's kidneys!
And not just one, both of them!
In other words, they wanted Ye Shen dead!
Zhang Bin was shocked: "Damn, this protagonist is too unfortunate..."
Dai Rui was at a loss for words.
He could never guess the writer's twists!
Countless twists have people's heads spinning, all they could do was go along with the plot!
No matter how many twists, the protagonist won't die halfway through the movie…
Depending on his silver tongue, Ye Shen managed to temporarily win over the heartless couple and the kidney-harvesting doctor. He persuaded the trio that his plan could initiate the counterattack:
How much money can you get from selling a kidney?
If you help me kidnap Jiang Yan and reveal the truth about veteran actor Su Tai's murder, you could earn at least ten million!
The three are convinced.
With Ye Shen's cooperation, they kidnap Jiang Yan together and called the Chief of Police to set up a time and place for the ransom exchange.
At this time, the five cab couple broke trust again:
They tied up Ye Shen and Jiang Yan together in the warehouse, planning to pocket the whole ten million by themselves.
During this process, the Chief of Police died.
In the conflict, the taxi driver was injured.
When the taxi driver's wife took the injured man to the hospital to seek a doctor, she found the ransom the Chief had sent was nothing but blank paper...
Dai Rui suddenly exclaimed.
Zhang Bin also felt a sense of satisfaction.
This taxi driver couple were too wicked and greedy, but in the end, they not only failed to grab any money, but the male taxi driver died.
Ye Shen and Jiang Yan who were tied up in the warehouse decided to help each other escape.
It was an ironic scene.
Although they wished death upon one another, they had to help each other survive.
Barely escaping their restraints.
Jiang Yan was considering killing Ye Shen...
At that moment, the doctor arrives. In the ensuing struggle, he almost dies, but is saved by Ye Shen.
This made the black market doctor greatly indebted to Ye Shen.
He decided to return the favor and told Ye Shen a secret: "Jiang Yan's kidney is a match with a wealthy man's kidney, you could earn a lot of money just by selling hers!"
The doctor decided to share the money with Ye Shen.
Simultaneously, the doctor told Ye Shen, "Your eyes can be saved, we just need to transplant this woman's cornea to you…"
Dai Rui let out a heavy breath.
Zhang Bin's heart finally found some stability.
