00:00This is E-Soup, aka Specific Soup, and today I'm watching Justice in the Dark, episode 13.
00:09I keep being like, is this really where we are? Like, we're already here.
00:16I just, I'm, I have a feeling that I might be recording a few reactions in a row.
00:24I've heard that this episode might end on a cliffhanger, and I might want to immediately
00:30proceed with the next one, and then that's episode 14. I don't know what happens there.
00:35I don't know if I'm gonna be just more stressed by the end of it. I just might watch clear on through
00:42what's available for me with the subtitles that I like. I have stalled long enough.
00:48This is episode 13, and without further ado, we commence.
00:54Yeah, remember all that stuff that happened?
01:08Yeah, a whole ass fire started.
01:17But he didn't.
01:24I would be mad too, but it's, that's just, it's just, he's just been like super freaked out. Also, I heard like a notification noise, and I was like, was that in the show? It doesn't sound like anything I have on my computer that would ding. So I think it was part of the show.
01:54But I don't know what that was.
01:55I don't know what that was.
01:56Yeah. Um, yeah.
01:57Yeah.
01:58Yeah.
01:59Yeah.
02:00Yeah.
02:01Yeah.
02:03Yeah.
02:04Yeah.
02:05Oh, yeah.
02:07Yeah.
02:08Yeah.
02:09Yeah.
02:10Yeah.
02:11Yeah.
02:12Yeah.
02:13Yeah.
02:14Now, isn't that weird?
02:15Yeah.
02:16Yeah.
02:17Yeah.
02:18Yeah.
02:19Yeah.
02:20I think a lot of the crimes are having this element of like, joy of the chase, wanting the cops to track them.
02:21Now, in this case, it's like, well, he knew the vehicle information was like, right there.
02:22Yeah.
02:23Yeah.
02:24Yeah.
02:25I think a lot of the crimes are having this element of like, joy of the chase, wanting the cops to track them.
02:34Now, in this case, it's like, well, he knew the vehicle information was like, right there, and it wasn't concealed. But also, it's a stolen vehicle. But it's like, he presumably doesn't care if they track down, you know, how he stole the vehicle and where he got it from and all this stuff.
02:50Because it's like, he's always one step ahead. Or he, he is part of a group. He might be part of, I can't figure out what group he's part of, but this person we've seen now in the mask. I don't know, I think he's part of the overarching group that seems to be like, killing people in all these vehicles.
03:19I don't know, there are like, too many variables. I don't know how many groups are at play right now, because I feel like there's like, multiple different ones, and they're doing different things, and there's just a lot of interplay. Everything is just entangled.
03:35But yeah, it's like, they don't care about certain things being tracked, because they're good at what they're doing. And so it's like, the thrill of the cops chasing them, and at the same time, they think, oh, I'm gonna get away with it.
03:48I'm actually skipping the intro, because I just want to like, hurry up and find out what's going on. I never do this.
03:55I can never read this.
04:00D-d-d-d-day. Evil, or E-something-something-L-day. I don't know. I guess I should, what I should do is take screenshots, and then look up the meaning of the Japanese. But it's just the fact that like, damn, I cannot see the English at all.
04:18Oh, the car was taken here, and lit on fire. Yeah.
04:27He really wants to find something.
04:30Uh, meanwhile, Heisu doesn't know what just happened to him, right?
04:35He's just over here with this situation, and maybe this guy is admitting some stuff, so... hold up.
04:41Hold up.
04:56I don't know if they would have.
05:02Damn.
05:11Yeah.
05:29Oh.
05:31No, no, no, no, no.
05:33No, no, no.
05:34Okay, but didn't-
05:35Okay, it's possible this was misrepresenting things,
05:38but the letter that was given to the woman whose father died
05:43who caused that accident,
05:45wasn't it like the guy said,
05:47oh, this guy reached out to me because he wanted to kill his father.
05:51Or, I don't know, reached out to him.
05:53I don't know how that works.
05:54But the point is, he wanted to kill his father,
05:57and this guy wanted to kill his father
05:59because he caused the accident that his wife was in.
06:03So I thought that was put on this guy.
06:06Joe Jinghai.
06:07I know they probably just said his name,
06:09but I just keep forgetting the Joes.
06:11There's a lot of names rolling around right now,
06:13and I'm not going to remember them.
06:15But I thought that was being led by him.
06:17So either he's lying here,
06:19or that, like, evidence didn't tell the full story.
06:23But he says, I'm just a glamorous figurehead of the group.
06:25So maybe, like, someone else was planning it,
06:28and they just sort of got him on board
06:30and were, like, using his name?
06:32I knew it. I knew it! I was, like, last episode, I swear to God, didn't I say that?
07:00I said, wait, wait.
07:02I didn't just think this in my head and imagine that I said it, but I didn't say it.
07:07Hopefully, I actually said this out loud at some point in my reaction to the last episode.
07:13But I was like, what if...
07:16What if the older brother is not...
07:19What if, um, Zhou Junhao is not his father?
07:22And so if he wants part of the inheritance,
07:24he might have to do something crazy to get it,
07:26or just that he doesn't want it to be exposed,
07:29that he's not actually his son.
07:31I knew it!
07:32I knew there was something like that!
07:34So not an additional bastard child,
07:37but rather, uh, secretly not his child.
07:43I actually predicted something.
07:45Hey, sir.
07:47You should hear the words, right?
07:49Wait.
07:50Man? What?
07:55Zhou Yahu.
07:56Hey, sir.
07:59What are we here?
08:00Okay, they're...
08:20So, what we're saying is the Zhou family is a big deal family.
08:24And this guy's actual father was a Zhou.
08:27And his mother then married another Zhou.
08:31His, like, pretend father, I guess.
08:34But that Zhou was distantly related to the first Zhou.
08:38I don't know.
08:52I don't know.
08:56You should, I guess, get a...
08:58Well, can he now?
08:59I don't know if he can get a DNA test done now.
09:02The dad is dead.
09:03But weren't they able to do that, though?
09:05They had a test for Yong Bo, so he...
09:07They could do that.
09:08Then couldn't he also get a test?
09:10He was a good one.
09:13I don't think he was a bad guy.
09:16He didn't kill me.
09:17He was a bad guy.
09:18He's a bad guy.
09:19Zhou Xun.
09:21You're telling me.
09:24You're a good guy?
09:25He's a good guy.
09:26Even if you think I died.
09:29So his- his- I'm gonna keep calling him fake dad.
09:37His fake dad killed his real dad?
09:44I just can't get over them being- like, both of them being from the same family.
09:52What?
09:55Huh?
09:56Oh.
10:01Oh.
10:03Oh.
10:08Oh.
10:13Oh.
10:16Oh.
10:21Oh.
10:25Oh.
10:27Okay.
10:28So his real father, according to her, was not a great guy.
10:35But then she ended up in a dead end with this other Zhou, who is an A-Path.
10:40So she's like, this family is bad news.
10:43Just like, get out.
10:44Like, just distance yourself.
10:45Get as far away as possible.
10:47Oh.
10:48Oh.
10:49What the heck?
11:02What the heck?
11:03Like, so he withheld heart medication from that guy's father?
11:18Or- or is it him just having a box of heart medication just supposed to indicate, haha,
11:24I did this.
11:25Like a trophy of some sort.
11:27Okay.
11:28Oh.
11:29Okay.
11:30Oh.
11:31Okay.
11:32Okay.
11:33You can't get promoted without being suspected of something.
11:34Damn.
11:35Oh.
11:36Okay.
11:37Okay.
11:38Okay.
11:42You can't get promoted without being suspected of something.
11:58You can't get promoted
12:01without being suspected of something, damn.
12:16Did we fake?
12:22So they did a fake
12:27they faked it so the paternity test
12:31would say that was his father?
12:35Oh my god.
12:36Oh my god!
12:37I'm a big fan.
12:39I'm a big fan.
12:43I want you to get your phone.
12:45I'll be right back.
12:47I'll be right back.
12:49I'll be right back.
12:53I'm okay.
12:55I'll be right back.
12:57I need you to stay up.
12:59Bye, Jai.
13:01Bye, Jai.
13:03Hmm.
13:33So I guess, well, he kind of explained it's not so much about not wanting that secret
13:44to get out because then he won't get the inheritance, because now he seems to not
13:48care about the inheritance. But he wanted to expose his fake dad for apparently killing
13:54his real dad and all this other stuff. So this isn't, according to him, like part of an inheritance
14:02battle thing. It's like the principle of it. It's like about who his dad was.
14:12Hmm. I mean, he can relate, right? About his dad. I mean, geez.
14:20Ooh. Oi. Yeah, I kind of forgot about that for a second.
14:24Mm-hmm.
14:33Mm-hmm.
14:35Mm-hmm.
14:39Mm-hmm.
14:43Mm-hmm.
14:47Please don't kill this boy.
15:17Right, right, we're squishing the water bottles.
15:47Oh man, holy crap.
16:06Yeah, time to find out.
16:13Hey!
16:15Oh man.
16:20Yeah, see, you had this plan but you got your family involved in this stuff.
16:30Or the family member that you didn't want to die.
16:35I should've known that was gonna happen.
16:40Oh, and they're coming to arrest him, aren't they?
16:45Oh!
16:46Oh!
16:48Oh!
16:49Oh!
16:51Oh!
16:52Oh!
16:53Oh!
16:54Oh my god.
16:55Oh my god.
16:56Not the...
16:57Not the double twist!
17:28And I was not right.
17:29So he just thought that and he so desperately doesn't want to share genes with an apath but
17:35they're basically saying, hey, maybe it doesn't really work like that.
17:40Because so does his younger brother and his younger brother seems like, you know, empathetic.
17:47Oh my god.
17:57Oh my god.
18:02Oh my god.
18:06he's having a bad day today oh my god I can't I can't believe it I can't believe
18:13they killed him the stakes are getting higher goodness
18:22oh man man oh man
18:39oh hello it is who I think it is
18:52hmm hmm doesn't want him to see that he was crying
19:02I don't think he wants to relay that information right now
19:05hmm hmm
19:12what
19:23oh
19:24oh
19:28oh okay it's just the water bottle he was squishing wait a minute though
19:35oh my god okay
19:37oh we're okay
19:41we're passing out okay we're more than just upset
19:48oh dear okay
19:51oh
19:52uh
19:59he
20:02he
20:10must have some kind of like illness that he's hiding or something right
20:18like
20:18uh
20:21you would think in this big house
20:25boy
20:27he's like
20:34oh is that why he's always like eating candy
20:43because I thought of it as like a comfort item
20:45but if he has an issue with his blood sugar getting low
20:48it would be
20:49that would be helpful there
20:50but like
20:51mm
20:56mm
20:56mm
20:56mm
20:57mm
20:58mm

22:01oh
22:05he just said the thing
22:10okay
22:14see unfortunately I'm on tumblr
22:17and I don't make proper use of the tag blocking thing that you can do
22:23which I probably should
22:24I should probably just block any tags relating to justice in the dark
22:28because
22:28I've seen like gifs of random scenes
22:32I've seen some like spoilers
22:34but they're like out of context enough for me
22:37that I'm like okay it's fine
22:39but I still didn't really want to see any spoilers
22:41but I've definitely seen gifs of the water
22:45scene
22:47can you like go to a doctor or something
22:50damn
22:52hey wanna stay with me
23:20instead
23:20uh oh
23:25okay so I noticed like last episode
23:28this moment
23:29they were having
23:30where like
23:30Pei Su seemed like more vulnerable
23:33and like he was about to be vulnerable
23:34and then like
23:35he had his whole like breakdown
23:37and then he like put the glasses back on
23:40or like he puts the glasses back on
23:42and it's like
23:42okay he's putting his mask back on
23:44so I'm like
23:45no no
23:46don't put the glasses back on
23:48the glasses symbolism is crazy
24:02did he just remember
24:06oh
24:10huh
24:23could the father have tried to conceal evidence of something by doing that
24:40I don't know if that makes sense
24:41oh boy the flowers
24:44may 12th
24:47oh that's just today's date
24:50wow I'm watching this
24:52um close to the date and time
24:54that it was in the show
24:54that's crazy
24:55mm
24:59oh that was the day
25:06okay
25:06okay that's not today's date
25:09that was the day
25:10he just left it
25:11the calendar on that day
25:13he took it back
25:22oh
25:25probably that one
25:32hmm
25:35because of course he would want to retain the signs of his mother being around
25:42boy
25:45excuse me
25:52no
25:57see that's not what you say when you're like so full of grief that you can't bear to look at
26:09your dead wife's things anymore
26:10that is not what you would say
26:12okay
26:13so
26:14oh he broke it
26:21oh great
26:22oh it has the chip
26:26it has the chip
26:26oh my god
26:27see okay
26:33I know it's because he's like the SID captain whatever
26:37but
26:38Luo Wei Zhao has like a bad habit of like
26:41questioning him in a way that's very like
26:44okay he's going through it right now
26:46like maybe we can ease up on the questioning right now
26:49like
26:50that's not really like
26:52how you relate
26:53to people in a relationship
26:56you know what I mean
26:57you know we can't rule out foul play
27:06in my opinion
27:07just with the way that this
27:08story is going
27:10did his father do it or
27:12was it just
27:13suicide
27:14suicide
27:14like no
27:15it probably was some secret third thing
27:18boy
27:27is now really the time
27:31okay
27:32um
27:57um
27:59I've been there for a while, and I've been here for a long time, and I've been here for a long time.
28:04Oh.
28:08And then...
28:16Oh.
28:24He's like, finally I get to do something!
28:30Huh.
28:41Oh shit!
28:45Oh my god.
28:50Oh!
28:59Oh!
29:00Oh!
29:22Hmm.
29:24Oh!
29:26What did he smell you?
29:28Oh!
29:30Oh my god.
29:31You girls should get it done.
29:32Oh my god.
29:33Oh!
29:35Oh, my god!
29:36Okay, so was somebody hurt and he went to go help them?
30:02Like, why would he do that?
30:06Like, why was he there?
30:14And now...
30:27Did that guy really kill him?
30:31Oh, okay.
30:37Oh, damn.
30:39Oh, damn.
30:54Was that a setup?
31:10Because, like, why would he be trying to kill that random woman?
31:17I mean, I have no idea what kind of...
31:19I don't know.
31:20Okay.
31:21Okay.
31:22Maybe he would be.
31:25But, are we wondering if there's a big conspiracy where the guy who killed him was, like, being used by this greater organization?
31:40That's creating all these accidents?
31:43Because that's what I'm thinking.
31:45They somehow, in some way, like, managed to put him in a situation that this would happen.
31:50So he's not going to kill him.
31:53What is he doing?
31:54He's going to kill him.
31:56Hmm...
31:57In a other way, he's not going to kill him.
32:02He's trying to kill him.
32:04He's a perfect professor.
32:06He's a perfect judge.
32:08that's the thing okay so his mother's death not being foul play that's like the thing he can't
32:30accept and the mentor's death just being random happenstance of like being in the wrong place at
32:37the wrong time and like accidentally getting murdered i guess that's the thing that lo wei jiao
32:45can't accept and in both cases i do feel like there was foul play but it's lo wei jiao is so like oh
32:54there's always evidence there's always evidence but he's like racking his brain over the situation
32:58where like there seemingly was no evidence but it just like doesn't seem right to him and it's like
33:03yeah someone is doing something and they're finding a way to just like not leave a trail
33:10that too
33:18hmm
33:37oh
33:47huh
34:02oh come on don't don't do this with the phone call

36:55Oh my god.
36:58Oh my god.
36:59You little, you little jerk.
37:05Ugh.
37:06Ugh.
37:06Yeah, we've seen this before, but what I want to know is what's under that big cloth.
37:16I also want to know about the secret stone wall and the, like, elevator thing.
37:21Because was that in a different direction from this?
37:24He just, like, didn't go that way, right?
37:26So what's the deal with that?
37:28Okay.
37:36What?
37:38Oh!
37:41No fucking way!
37:45We've seen, like, little flashbacks.
37:49Like, little flashbacks of, like, what seems like his father torturing his mother.
37:55This has to be, like, the torture chair.
37:58Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
38:09Bro.
38:19Oh.
38:22Oh, now those water is being in there.
38:25That specific brand of water, are you serious?
38:29What the?
38:35Okay.
38:38Okay.
38:39We're just doing an investigation about this right now.
38:49Oh, not a projector.
38:50Oh, man.
38:55What is this?
38:56Like, you sit in the chair and you watch some kind of...
38:59fucked up.
39:05Holy crap, that was way too loud.
39:07I'm wearing headphones.
39:10Actually scared.
39:12Actually scared me.
39:13What the fuck?
39:17that's what i thought
39:47oh oh it's meant to create an aversion towards bloodshed and that's like the um the thing in a
40:00clockwork orange you know i don't think it works like that but see why would that be here if the
40:09father thinks okay we're about to find out something crazy but the father thinks that being
40:15an a-path is like the blessed genes where you're above other people and so and presumably he was
40:21doing this like torture to the mother so did the mother have like antisocial personality disorder
40:26or like was the mother an a-path but then again the question is why would the dad be doing this
40:31kind of aversion therapy unless like again i'm pretty sure we've seen we've seen flashbacks and
40:37it seems like the dad might have been like torturing the mother so i'm making the assumption that he was
40:42using this on her but i don't think we actually saw that so what if pei su is doing this to himself
40:49because he so badly wants to like not be an a-path or like not become a killer no i don't know how you
40:56would do this to yourself because how do you like control that but could that be like he's taking some
41:01crazy concoction of medication and doing electroshock therapy on himself and that would explain
41:09why he faints or all gets sick at the sight of blood if he's done this aversion therapy on himself
41:16because again why would the dad do that if the dad's like a-paths are great and perfect but pei su
41:22doesn't want to be like his dad so he would totally do this to himself
41:26i might i might be getting ahead of myself i may i might be very wrong but i know i have a theory
41:38about this now that is my theory anyway let's watch this video is it the thing with the bird yes
41:45oh my god
41:51see he never was an a-path he never wanted to do this
42:02and meanwhile he totally scolded him for killing a bird
42:18when he was a kid yep
42:22we come back to this from episode one
42:28i know we already knew that his dad did it but like
42:31oop
42:33red light
42:36are we on like a lockdown
42:37yeah pei su's like hey man what are you doing
42:42right right
42:43did he find out you're down here
42:46that's him uh-huh
42:48yeah why
42:50oh and he's not wearing the glasses
42:52oh he's not wearing the glasses
42:55oh boy
42:59wait what
43:02what are you doing sir
43:04sir what is happening
43:07what are you doing
43:13do i i knew it right he's setting himself up right now
43:18is he actually doing this in front of
43:21i knew it i knew it
43:23okay
43:27okay
43:27okay just just open okay
43:29see that's not good for you if you don't have a mental illness that like
43:42could actually be helped by electroshock therapy
43:45you can't just
43:45like
43:46is it see i can't is he actually doing this in front of lo wei jiao or is it like a thing
43:58where lo wei jiao is like imagining this happening because he figured out why this was here
44:04oh and that's why he had the mark he had some kind of scar or mark on him when he his shirt was all open
44:31and then lo wei jiao was like close your shirt and there was some sort of like weird like scar thing that he was hiding
44:38is he really doing this right now in front of him like i genuinely i don't
44:50like boy i think as a kid you already demonstrated that you're not an apath if you couldn't kill the animals that your dad was telling you to kill
45:04like boy i think as a kid you already demonstrated that you're not an apath if you couldn't kill the animals that your dad was telling you to kill
45:11oh
45:18oh
45:20oh
45:22oh
45:24oh
45:25oh
45:26don't look at him and press the button again
45:28oh
45:43oh
45:45oh
45:47oh
45:49oh
45:51oh
45:53oh
45:55yeah you're he really okay he really did that
46:07in front of him
46:09oh
46:10don't
46:12oh well i've seen this clip but like
46:16out of context
46:18don't
46:19don't
46:20you believe him
46:21yep
46:22yep
46:23yep
46:24you basically
46:25see i had my little theory and i didn't know we were gonna get a demonstration in the same episode i thought i would have to wait a little while to find out if i was right that he just did this to himself
46:35oh
46:43oh no the reason and he won't faint
46:45oh okay
46:46okay
46:48okay
46:49okay
47:02hmm
47:03hmm
47:07Oh boy
47:37Oh
47:41Okay just let him go
47:46Sure
47:47Okay music
47:53I mean he didn't mean that
48:07Oh my god watching him drive away on the
48:09The unhinged gave it all
48:14Okay
48:18What do I even say after that
48:33I had a theory and then it was apparently proven correct in the same episode but what I want to know now that we're here
48:41Is uh what's the deal with him saying he knows how his mom died and that's not what he's trying to figure out
48:49Hmm
48:50I have one very vague thought about that
48:53My very vague thought about that is his thinking process could be I know how my mom died but how do I get together the physical evidence to prove it to you to SID to Luau Wei Zhao because the whole thing is about having like concrete evidence right
49:11So maybe some way or another he's like I know but I don't have like evidence so maybe maybe what he was saying is I know how she died but what I've been trying to find is the evidence or maybe he's that might not have been how he phrased it he might have been saying the thing I'm trying to find out which would be a little different
49:31But either way
49:34Boy
49:35Listen I watch horror movies I really like horror and I know that this ended up getting cancelled and there were quite a lot of censorship issues with it
49:47And I know that some of the reasons for getting cancelled it might not have just been because it was based on a BL
49:53It might have also been because of like the sensitive and violent content in it
49:59Because the thing is I never expected to see like a sea drama that had horror content that was like so grimy and visceral and like genuinely terrifying
50:10Like I've seen like the spy realm and the spy realm was like genuinely creepy in certain parts
50:15But it never ever got like that and I kind of thought like oh it can't get like that because
50:21Violence it to a certain degree is like censored
50:24So then you have this and I guess there's still ways in which the violence is not as gory looking as it could be
50:32But it was gory enough and goriness is not the reason it was creepy
50:36It was just like the scream
50:38And then the like disjointed like just hands with blood on them
50:42And then like the weird whatever was like stabbing and then and then the red light
50:48And him getting in the chair and then when he's like done
50:52He's like looking at Luo Wei Zhao and like smiling and and every time there's a dark like dream sequence
50:58Okay, it's just this show is actually doing horror quite well
51:03And i'm really I was unprepared for this
51:06So that was my reaction to episode 13 of justice in the dark
51:12So until next time
51:14This is eSoup signing out
