("Tang Detective 2" modified by myself, please subscribe as appropriate)
Seeing this, the case has gradually become clearer.
In the cinema, Xiguajiang was thoughtful:
"This case is not as complicated as the first one, and the motive for the murder is a bit strange. Why should we kill according to the Five Elements? Is it evil?"
He had confidence in Su Zhe, so he continued to watch patiently.
At this time, Qin Feng and others had arrived at the murder site of Xi Jin, only to find that the fourth deceased was Lu Guofu, who had been chasing them.
Other detectives also chased after him, and after a scuffle, they were caught together by the New York Police Station.
They had no choice but to analyze the case together in the bureau.
When he was at a loss, Mouri Kogoro suddenly fell to the ground, closed his eyes, and began to talk about the clues he found.
Some detectives exclaimed in the background:
"Here he is! The sleeping Kogoro! Even though he is just an unreliable weird uncle at ordinary times, once he falls into a deep sleep state, he will become a famous detective!"
Tang Ren didn't believe it, so he stepped forward and made some jokes, almost pushing Kogoro down and shouting:
"Are you blind? He didn't even move his mouth, how could he talk?"
There was chaos in the detention center.
Conan broke into a cold sweat. He didn't expect to meet such a reckless man and almost expose his secret. (Everyone in the comic is blind)
The audience thought this chaotic farce was just a joke, laughing and having fun without realizing the Easter eggs hidden in it.
At this time, Qin Feng, who had been thinking silently in the corner, suddenly spoke, interrupting the chaos:
"I thought of it!"
He combed through the clues provided by Kogoro (Conan) and relied on the memory palace to finally find what the several deceased people had in common -
They had been admitted to the same private hospital, the same hospital where the trio of Qin, Tang and Song had caused such a big fuss.
That's why the murderer knew the birth date of the deceased and calculated the five elements to which they belonged.
The police officer investigating the case, Chen Ying, happens to be Tu Ming, and is very likely the fifth and final victim!
The time is today!
In order to save Chen Ying and catch the murderer at the same time, the detectives made a fuss at the police station and finally allowed Qin, Tang and Song to take the opportunity to rush out.
By this time, they had no outside aid and had to rely on themselves.
The three of them rushed to the hospital. On the way, Tang Ren thought of the case where the director, genius surgeon, and forensic doctor Pete was seen in the hospital, saying that he was suffering from cancer and would die soon.
Song Yi also reminded:
"The murderer I met in the park that day was holding a surgical scalpel in his hand! And looking at the photo, Pete's late wife was Chinese. He may have been exposed to Chinese culture."
This made the two people instantly conclude:
"Pete is the murderer! Influenced by his wife, he believes in Taoism and wants to refine the five elements and five internal organs into elixirs so that he can cure cancer after becoming an immortal!"
——Don’t laugh at them, this is really the logic of the original film. Pete in the original film is really the murderer, and the motivation is such nonsense.
So in the cinema, Xiguajiang looked disappointed after hearing:
"That's it? A foreign doctor who believes in Taoism and wants to become an immortal kills people?"
The film critic next to me complained helplessly:
"To be honest, it's better to say that Pete wet the bed when he was a child, abused cats when he grew up, had an unfortunate family, and has a B-type mentality, and turned into a murderer! Stamp collecting is just a small hobby that was influenced by his wife."
"This is more reliable than becoming an immortal."
A bunch of critics were buzzing and generally a bit disappointed.
Until someone says:
"Wait a minute, this is Tang Ren's analysis! Qin Feng hasn't spoken yet!"
This sentence made everyone stunned and suddenly realized:
"Yes, Tang Ren is all about comedy. What does he know about solving crimes?"
"According to the rules of mystery movies, except for the reasoning made by the protagonist, the reasoning of other detectives seems reasonable, but in fact they are just distractions!"
That's right, Su Zhe changed the murderer.
"Twin Eyes" can be filmed this way because it is a religious thriller, and it makes sense that the murderer is a Taoist believer, and several of the dead have committed crimes, and there is also a sense of ritual of retribution.
"Tang Detective 2" allows a foreigner or a doctor to do this. It cannot be said to be impossible, but it is indeed too inconsistent. Moreover, the deceased was chosen indiscriminately, and no crime was mentioned.
All I can say is that the copying was too rough.
Su Zhe directly stated the reasoning of the original film from the mouth of the second fool Tang Ren, which can be regarded as a silent mockery.
In the movie, the trio rushed to the hospital together and stopped Chen Ying, who was about to go to Peter to get the autopsy results:
"Don't go to Pete, he's the murderer!"
Chen Ying was surprised that Tang Ren was talking about his reasoning in a showy way, but Qin Feng suddenly interrupted him:
"Officer Chen, when does Peter want to meet you?"
After Chen Ying told the time, Qin Feng immediately noticed something was wrong:
"Wait a minute, the time you agreed on is already past midnight. If Peter was the murderer, shouldn't he have invited you over earlier?"
Everyone was stunned.
Including the audience in the cinema, their minds were blown.
Qin Feng's brain was spinning rapidly. After a burst of special effects playback, he thought of Peter's case. He looked at Tang Ren suddenly, told Peter's date of birth, and asked him:
"According to his birth date, what is Peter's fate?"
Tang Ren said blankly:
"Earth life."
Qin Feng suddenly realized:
"Pete is not the murderer, he is the fifth victim!"
The plot reversed in an instant, and the audience was stunned. The cinema became silent, and only the sound of gasping could be heard.
Next, Qin Feng found the secret room hidden in the hospital through analysis and discovered a huge Taoist temple.
The impactful scene of an ancient Taoist temple in a modern building left the audience hooked.
Film critics lamented:
"Su Zhe found a way to make the mystery film a big scene - car chases, special effects and spectacle!"
"Originally, mystery films were just niche dramas. Audiences enjoyed the thrill of logic. Now they can watch big scenes like superheroes."
"It can still sell well like this."
In the Taoist temple, several people also found the real murderer - Uncle Qi's housekeeper.
Seeing this, the audience was shocked.
The butler only appeared at the beginning of the movie, wearing a Taoist robe and feeding Uncle Qi various so-called elixirs, just like the demon Taoist around the emperor.
At that time, the audience thought he was just a funny character, highlighting Uncle Qi's lofty status and his desperation to seek medical treatment due to his illness. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the hidden murderer.
Seeing this, Tang Ren shouted:
"If you want to extend the life of the seventh uncle, there is no need to use human life to make elixirs! And you also need to use the seventh uncle's grandson!"
The housekeeper didn't say anything, but Qin Feng discovered the key through the details of the photos of the housekeeper and Peter's wife:
"You are Pete's father-in-law, right?"
As soon as this sentence came out, the audience was stunned.
The housekeeper didn't expect it, looked at Qin Feng in surprise, and told the truth.
It turned out that his daughter married Peter after studying abroad and fell out with her traditional father.
In order to please his father-in-law, Peter even built a temple for the housekeeper in the hospital.
But just after the temple was completed, her daughter died of illness, but the housekeeper didn't believe it:
"I have used elixirs to condition her body since she was a child. There is no way she will die young!"
So, he came to New York and became the housekeeper of Uncle Qi, who was seriously ill and sought medical treatment through Xiandan, to investigate the cause of his daughter's death.
He found that his daughter's body was missing all the internal organs, so he concluded that his daughter had been harmed by evil spells.
In order to let his daughter's soul rest in peace in the underworld and no longer be driven by evil laws, he used the Five Elements to kill people and replaced his daughter with the Five Elements' internal organs so that her soul could rest in peace.
Those who were killed were the ones the steward suspected of using evil methods!
Seeing this, all the viewers were attracted:
"Evil magic? It is much more reliable to eliminate evil magic than to become an immortal."
"Is the housekeeper's daughter really murdered?"
"Looking at Xuanhu, it's actually the old father who is avenging his daughter!"
"The five elements are just incidental. The butler is just for revenge. It seems much more reasonable."
But in the movie, Chen Ying shouted:
"Your daughter donated her body before she died! It was used for medical research! She was terminally ill because she took too many heavy metal pills!"
The audience was shocked:
"So this is the truth?"
“The internal organs disappeared because body donation?”
"So, his daughter was killed by his superstition?"
In the movie, the housekeeper was also stunned and couldn't believe it, and everyone took the opportunity to save Peter.
Seeing this, the housekeeper muttered:
"I am also a native..."
He cut off his spleen and stomach (which belongs to earth) with his own hands, completed the last step of the Five Elements Killing, and died peacefully:
"Daughter, you are free."
The case was over, and the audience watched with heavy hearts.
The film critic suppressed his excitement:
"The twist at the end is so exciting!"
"It turns out that this is the truth."
"'Daughter, you are liberated.' This line seems to mean that after the Five Elements killing, the daughter's soul got rid of the evil law. It also seems like the father realized his mistake and apologetically told his daughter that he was liberated."
They thought this was the end, but they didn't expect that there would be one last reversal.
After Qin Feng listened to the butler's confession before his death, he discovered something suspicious.
Although Lu Guofu has a golden destiny, he has no connection with the housekeeper's daughter, so it stands to reason that he would not become a victim.
After going through some details, he finally understood that Song Yi was the murderer of Lu Guofu.
He borrowed books explaining the edict in advance and found the secret of Five Elements Murder, but deliberately hid that page because he didn't want Qin Feng to find out.
Because his sister died after being abducted by Lu Guofu, and Lu Guofu had a golden life, he wanted to take the opportunity to kill Lu Guofu and push the murderer to complete the killing.
He succeeded, not only killed Lu Guofu and avenged his sister, but also disposed of the evidence, and the real murderer butler was also dead.
Even if Qin Feng discovers the truth, he can get away with it.
Seeing this, the audience was so shocked that they were speechless. After a while, they discussed:
"Same as the little girl in the first movie!"
"Another real murderer who escaped justice, a just murderer."
"Qin Feng looks very smart, why does he always let the murderer escape?"
"The Detective Tang series should be called the Murderer Is Always At Large series."
"Hahaha, isn't this bad? A good murderer shouldn't be caught!"
Film critics thought a little deeper:
"Have you noticed that both the housekeeper and Song Yi want to avenge their relatives? This seems to be a very mysterious case, but in fact, the underlying logic is the most universal revenge of blood relatives."
"It's just that one makes sense and the other doesn't. This determines their final outcome."
"Huh? You're quite thoughtful. Do you think blood revenge is just (Song Yi) or unjust (Guan Jian)?"
The more they tasted it, the more they tasted it. After the movie was over, they couldn't wait to start making videos and publishing movie reviews.
As for the general audience, the reputation is better.
They thought that Pete was the murderer at the beginning, but later the story was reversed layer by layer, which was very enjoyable to watch.
There was endless applause at the scene, and the Douban score was as high as 8.2 points.
Su Zhe breathed a sigh of relief after seeing it.
In the previous life, "Tang Detective 2" only had a score of 6.6, which was just qualified.
Commercial films with qualified scores can also sell well, but commercial films with excellent scores often create a craze.
Countless viewers took the initiative to post reviews and opinions on the film, praising the plot.
Perhaps during the movie watching, everyone prefers the comedy baggage and will laugh about it.
But during the discussion, the case still has more room for discussion.
During the ongoing discussion, someone discovered that there are actually two interpretations of the Five Elements Murder in this movie.
One is the most intuitive, without fantasy:
The housekeeper was superstitious and gave his daughter too much heavy metal elixir, which caused her daughter to discover a terminal illness after studying abroad. She donated her body before her death to study the poison of the "elixir" in an attempt to save her father.
But the housekeeper couldn't believe it and firmly believed that his daughter's death was caused by evil spells. In a paranoid state of mind, he started killing people in the Five Elements. Finally, he repented and committed suicide.
There is also a very fantasy one:
The housekeeper was not at fault, but his daughter was harmed by evil. After Peter was rescued, in order not to waste his time, he could only use his own life to complete the Five Elements Murder and save his daughter's soul.
Needless to say, the former is the truth on the surface of the movie. ——After all, superstition is not allowed in China, and "elixirs" and the like are definitely fake.
There is actually some evidence for the latter. For example, the housekeeper used the "elixir" to extend the life of Uncle Qi, saying that it could help him survive for a week.
As a result, in the ending of the movie, Uncle Qi died on the seventh day, and even the promised bonus was not given to Tang Ren, who was thinking about him.
This also made the viewers who believed in the latter swear to say:
"This is the truth. Su Zhe hid it in order to pass the trial."
The dispute between the two endings got louder. A reporter interviewed Su Zhe, but Su Zhe just replied:
"Every viewer has their own opinion. As long as they can justify themselves, my opinion doesn't really matter."
Just kidding, the open ending created a huge discussion. For such a good thing, how could he set an official ending and make the movie lose room for discussion?
Since he doesn’t set the tone, there is room for marketing accounts.
