The Long Season Episode 1 Recap
> The Long Season Recap
Wang Xiang spent his entire life dealing with cars, driving trains for half of his youth and later taking up driving taxis in his old age. Although it may seem like a bit of a waste to switch from trains to taxis, he still drove carefully and professionally, without any sloppiness. One day, it was Gong Biao's turn to take over the shift, and he excitedly called Wang Xiang to come and see his new car.
Last night, Gong Biao bought a new taxi from a stranger he met at a bar. At the time, he was tempted by the low price and saw competition from other buyers, so he couldn't wait to buy it without telling anyone beforehand. He only showed it to Wang Xiang after transferring ownership, but Wang Xiang quickly noticed several issues with the car, including water in the engine and some minor problems with the brakes. Hearing Wang Xiang's words was like pouring a bucket of water on Gong Biao's head. He had not yet familiarized himself with the car when he received a call from the police that afternoon.
Based on surveillance video from a traffic accident, the police found that the license plate number of the offending vehicle was exactly the same as Gong Biao's. Now he was in trouble, and his car was impounded by the police until the case was investigated. It was obviously a case of license plate fraud. In the morning, Wang Xiang and Gong Biao went out for a test drive together, and there were witnesses and physical evidence, but now the newly purchased car was seized by the police because of the case.
Gong Biao quickly went to the hospital to check on the victim's condition, but to his surprise, the victim had already been discharged and the phone number left behind was also invalid. Gong Biao had to post notices everywhere, hoping that someone with information would call him to provide clues.
He spent 150,000 yuan to buy a taxi, but it was impounded by the police before he could even warm it up. Gong Biao was furious, he hadn't told his wife when he bought the car, and he didn't dare to say anything when he got home. His wife had been thinking about opening a beauty salon lately and they needed the money. Finally, after a few days, they received a clue about the car with a fake license plate, and Gong Biao hurriedly went with Wang Xiang to investigate.
The stolen vehicle was left at a repair shop. Wang Xiang was cautious and had Gong Biao block the entrance while he went alone to ask the mechanic. In less than two minutes, someone sensed something was amiss and drove the car out. Wang Xiang stood in front of a taxi parked by the side of the road, but the car that was fleeing collided with it, causing damage. In order to prevent the thief from escaping, Wang Xiang immediately leapt into the damaged car and followed the car that was fleeing.
Although Gong Biao was blocking the entrance, he was scared when the car charged towards him. But when he saw the car that Wang Xiang was driving behind, he felt relieved. Wang Xiang had driven a train before, so the thief couldn't escape. The car followed the thief to a cornfield, and the thief first ran into the cornfield. Gong Biao followed him and went to catch him, but the thief was agile and doubled back into the car to escape.
Twenty years ago, during the time when Wang Xiang was still an excellent train driver, he had a son and a wife. His son, Wang Yang, was seen by Wang Xiang as someone who was idle all day and not doing any proper work. During breakfast, his wife discussed the poor performance of the factory they worked at and feared that people would be laid off. Wang Xiang comforted his wife, saying that she worried too much because even if the factory went bankrupt, her salary wouldn't be affected.
On that day, a dismemberment case was discovered in the factory. An old lady went to the garbage bin early in the morning to look for garbage, but she found a bag of bloody meat. She thought of taking it back to feed her dog with some meat. When she opened the bag at home, she found out that it was actually fragments of human bones! The police arrived quickly, and Wang Xiang originally had nothing to do with it. However, his wife heard the police siren and became nervous, so she asked him to go and see what was going on. And because the security officer Jing Jianchun fainted, he asked Wang Xiang to go and check the scene.
Wang Xiang and Xing Jianchun only shook hands. When Wang Xiang heard Xing Jianchun say that he had just touched the bones of a corpse, he began to have stomach spasms and started vomiting uncontrollably. It seems that the corpse abandonment case from that year was related to his son, because many years later, Wang Xiang woke up from a dream and saw his son's photo hanging on the wall in black and white.
