推理笔记 (inference notes) season 1 2017

Or Tui Li Bi Ji. I love the fact that there's Wang Duo in it, and I love all his scenes, but the scenes with the two kids (meaning the two main characters) were often long and annoying; the plot is a bit complicated and in the end it's not finished so I hope they planned to make a second series because if left like this it's incomplete.
The two main leads, Kaka and Zaoan, have almost all the space, focusing a lot on his brilliant deductions and her "double personality" that helps a bit but not as much as you'd think.
The story is not too clear: first of all, it starts saying that Edison was shot to the head, but halfway through they start saying that he died in an explosion and even show it to us. Did he get out of there in time, recover, and then he was shot? Then how come the bad guys keep thinking he died in the explosion? He couldn't have or how could they take his heart? By the way, who took his heart, since the bad guys didn't know he was "alive" ?
What are the chips in their heads for? To give the organisation constant information, they say, but what kind of information since nobody knows what they are doing or where they are?

1-
It starts saying that Poker organisation is working on a project to predict the future, and they implant chips in all the members brains. When Edison is hunt down and killed, his heart is transplanted into the body of a young girl, Xia Zaoan. She's a student, but also a famous idol, lead singer in a band of five girls.
When Zaoan and her friend Mi Kaka are late for school, senior student Qi Mu (Wang Duo) sends them to clean the  biology lab where they find a real skull, starting a murder investigation. They talk to Qi Mu about it; Kaka's older brother Mi Jie is a policeman, the detective working the case.
Zaoan tells Kaka that she has intermittent amnesia, sometimes she wakes up not remembering what she did. At her concert, her group's agent is found dead, hanged.
2-
Zaoan and band member Yu Xiao are trapped and almost killed by a man, Qiu Ziming. Edison takes control of Zaoan's body and fights him, saving the girls.
3-
Edison talks to Kaka, revealing himself to him. Qiu Ziming is in a coma, self induced. Qi Mu is with fans until Zaoan arrives and all run to her screaming. He smiles, and gives Kaka a package for her. It's a bracelet that she doesn't remember buying, she did it in one of her amnesia moments. With it, Edison can come out or wake up whenever he wants. He sends Kaka to find hacker Morningan and to name Writer..
4-
Morningan is a big fan of Zaoan, so he helps her. Xiaojing was once in her group until she was killed by a stray bullet, apparently. Group member Shi Dairou calls them asking to meet because she has something to tell them, but when they arrive at the hotel she's been killed already, and whoever did it wanted to shift the blame of Su Heng and kill her too.
5-
Qi Mu is the substitute Foreign Languages teacher in their class. He studies art, major in oil painting, but knows languages too :-) . Kaka is a genius but only gets enough points to pass, on purpose.
The whole band is taken to a safe retreat by their company, with guards, and yet Su Heng is killed anyway.
6-
Zaoan goes home with Kaka and they look into the doctors that operated on her, thinking the heart transplant was premeditated. On their computer and also on a band member's phone appears a video of a girl in danger, the remaining band member, Li Shuyao. Kaka and Zaoan find her, but there's a bomb so Edison comes out to help. The girl set the bomb herself, to kill them. She's XiaoJing's younger sister and blames them all for her death.
7-
They're safe, but then the girl blows up in the ambulance. It might be too much for Zaoan, because she hides in herself, letting Edison out to help.
8-
Edison suspects the Poker organisation. Qui Ziming used the girl, staying in a coma until she killed them all, and now wakes up denying everything of course, and knowing well that they have no evidence, because everything they had is gone..
9-
Yu Xiao is the last member alive but Zaoan, and she has suicidal tendencies, so the use her to try and set a trap for him. They fake her suicide. Edison helps Kaka find evidence against him, because although there's no evidence that he had any part in killing the girls, they find that he's not the real Qiu Ziming, he killed him to take his identity, and to discover more they need to investigate Xiaojing's death
10-
A boy confesses to Zaoan but Edison refuses him...
11-
Zaoan wants Kaka to study criminal investigation but his brother is against it. When Kaka's brother disappears they go to investigate, and a doctor is found dead.
12-
Mi Jie is still missing. Dr Jiang may have been dealing in weapons for money.
Qi Mu appears in Rice Lotus village to do some sketches and is surprised to see that Zaoan/Edison pulls back from him.. he stays behind with Zaoan/Edison while Kaka and the police go searching a tunnel, and he talks to her about a possible treasure hidden there.
13-
Kaka and Edison find a secret place of the Poker organisation, and now Edison remembers that he's one of them too, as an undercover agent. A man tries to kill them but Edison helps. They find Xiaojing's phone and also Mi Jie. Zaoan and Kaka are about to leave when Qi Mu gives her a present, a portrait he made of her, and she's all happy. Qi Mu looks at a tattoo on Mi Jie's neck..
Xiaojing came there looking for Edison; Qiu Ziming too and they fought and he killed her. Some men from ICIA come to take over the case. Qiu Ziming is killed in his cell. Mi Jie has the symbol of the poker organisation on his neck.
14-
Edison tells Kaka more about the poker organisation, and when Kaka finds evidence of another murder he calls the police. Zaoan tells him not to do it, that Edison distrusts ICIA but he called already. Sure enough, ICIA leader here Aikawa suspects him to be the murderer and arrests him. Zaoan wants to find evidence to free him and once at the crime scene Edison comes out, and they find Qi Mu there. Surprised, they ask him what he's doing there and he says that the police asked him to look at the body.
15-
Edison and Qi Mu try to find evidence to help Kaka and find the real murderer's identity. Mi Jie asks Zaoan who she really is and she asks him about the organisation.. so they talk, Mi Jie says he was implanted the chip while he was unconscious and tells Edison that he must now hide because of it. They talk about the poker organisation, and we see now that Qi Mu is secretly listening to them, looking at lots of pictures of Zaoan and Kaka..
Edison brings the new evidence to the police and Kaka is released.
16-
Edison tells Kaka that someone in the police is involved, and he also tells him about the chip in Mi Jie's neck. Qi Mu talks on the phone to the killer and takes a gun, I suppose to kill him.
A list of poker members is sent to the police and some are arrested. Mi Jie and the kids get the killer, but then Qi Mu shows up and simply kills him in front of them, saying that it was his task but that now he will tell them everything they want to know..
17-
Qi Mu says that he wants to exit the poker organisation, that he doesn't want to die here, and that in order to make a deal with them he put a chip in Mi Jie, and that Edison knows how  to disable it.
He introduces himself as the Queen of Hearts, in charge of intelligence. Edison was Spake K, Qiu Ziming was Spake Q, Xiaojing was Spade 4. He also reveals that there is indeed a traitor in the police.. and we see Aikawa letting the Poker sniper go free.
Invitations are sent to the police, to the poker organisation and to Kaka and Zaoan, apparently by Edison, and the password has something to do with Gallifreyan script :-D
18-
Edison apparently also kidnapped Zaoan's aunt, Zhuang Yan. Many people gather at a church prayer, and a video from a fake Edison appears. Edison liked Zhuang Yan, she saved him once, and now Edison wants to rescue her. Qi Mu looks really good all in black :-D
19-
Aikawa uses Kaka to find his way through the moving maze beneath the church. Both police and poker members are trapped there, and Qi Mu kills some poker members. Edison finds Zhuang Yan and stops the bombs.
20-
Qi Mu's grandfather worked at the inference notes program, so when he was a child his mother volunteered him for the experiment, and he agreed to please her, and professor Mi also worked on the program but he didn't want Kaka to be a part of it.
Qi Mu is the mastermind behind all of this, he wanted to get to the leader, Spade A; he says she should have teamed up wit them instead of framing them, and that he wants the organisation's top secrets. The poker organisation thinks of Kaka as very important and have been looking for him, but Qi Mu doesn't explain everything to Kaka because his brother says not to.
Qi Mu says that they have a common plan now; he controls the maze and keeps the police out. When he helps Mi Jie fight Spade A, he says that he didn't do all that, two years of accurate planning, simply to kill him.. (so what, does he kill him or not??).
Qi Mu tells Kaka that he better pray he succeeds and then he leaves with Mi Jie who wants to continue his investigation, leaving Kaka behind with Zaoan.
The last scene shows Mi Jie with Qi Mu, and he's not a prisoner.
