Ép. 9: Ryo découvre des indices sur Yuanda Zhu tout en naviguant dans les conflits de gangs et les révélations personnelles.

Ryo reads the book by Sunming Zhao and recalls that Lan Di said to his father that he killed him. A note drops from the book, with a symbol that looks like four circles drawn in a check line-like pattern on it. The next day, Ryo visits Guixiang and learns that the symbol is the Chawan Sign and is told what each circle represents and its placement. Ryo learns about the check-like symbol on the back that shows that a person is a friend of Yuando Zhu. Ryo attempts this circle placement and is invited to Man Mo Park at 9 pm, but the meeting fails as Ryo is knocked out by an assailant. Awaking the next day at Man Mo Temple, Ryo spots the photo that Lishao was crying over a couple of days ago. Upon inspecting the back of it, the names of Lishao's true name and what appears to be her brother's name are written on it. Meeting with Fangmei, she informs Ryu that Lishao found and returned him; in turn, Ryo asks Fangmei about someone named Ziming. Fangmei discloses Ziming's relation to Lishao as her elder brother and about them being raised in an orphanage. Later after getting some advice from a barber, Ryo sets up the symbol again at a restaurant and the waitress there informs him that he has a phone call for him. After getting no response on the supposed call, Ryo returns to his table finds that a message was left for him. The message says to meet someone there at 8 pm. Ryo meets with an associate of Yuanda Zhu, but before they could formally talk about him, they're ambushed by members of the Yellow Head gang. The associate is captured by a member of the gang and Ryo deals with the others. Lishao quickly and quietly deals with the Yellow Head members without Ryo noticing. Ryo helps the associate and after showing him the letter from Yuando, the man introduces himself as Shuqin. He explains that Yuanda's whereabouts are unknown as he's being targeted by the Chi You Men. Still wanting to find him, Shuqin suggests that Ryo seek out Ren of the Heavens gang. After a brief struggle with guards, Ryo is allowed in to meet with Ren. After a brief test from Ren, he leads Ryo to the supposed location of Yuanda. In reality, he's led him to a shady business transaction involving the Yellow Heads. The lights go off and Ren steals the money used in the transaction, leaving Ryo to fight against the men. Ryo chases Ren to a construction building, where they end up falling from it. Landing on crates, Ren spots the mirror by Ryo's side and is told of his motivation to find Yuandu. Ren offers to help him find the man. A comment made by Ren makes Ryo realize what he's lacking and the following day meets with the barber and learns of the final Wude principle Dan. Furthermore, Ryo confronts Lishao and tells her that he knows about her brother, and in turn, Lishao asks him what he'll do when he finds his father's murderer. With the two at an impasse, Ryo declares that he is leaving the temple. (Source: Wikipedia)
