2
We'll be right back.
3
Thank you.
4
This circle.
5
I don't know.
6
Thank you.
7
Let's go.
8
25 years ago, the 10 -month -old baby of Aaron Carabullet was kidnapped.
9
According to what later statements said, The callers demanded a hefty sum of money.
10
Kara Bullet agreed to the amount.
11
They named a warehouse in Silevri, so he went to the location with the money for the exchange.
12
Who were the kidnappers, Captain?
13
We don't know.
14
And I doubt the Kara Bullet family knows either.
15
Nor does Aaron, and he was the one with the money.
16
Like a lamb to the slaughter.
17
He must have thought it was a trap or some elaborate plan, but still agreed to it for his baby.
18
We'll be right back.
19
Let's go.
20
We'll be right back.
21
Come on!
22
Forensics extracted six bullets from the victim, three to the chest and two to the neck, one to the head.
23
He died instantly.
24
Sir, what happened to the baby?
25
See, that's where it gets interesting.
26
The police arrived at the scene soon after.
27
And they found the baby in the back.
28
Which means they took the money, murdered Aaron, and left the kid.
29
And what's really interesting is that it turns out the baby found in the car was not Aaron's.
30
Come again?
31
They switched them.
32
Aaron's baby with another baby.
33
And Humiric Haribullet, Aaron's wife, came down to the station.
34
She took the kid.
35
Didn't say anything or object to anything.
36
She didn't say the kid wasn't hers.
37
Did they ever find the real kid?
38
Nope.
39
The kid's whereabouts are still unknown.
40
The case was closed after that.
41
I think the issue was far deeper than just the murder of Aaron Carbolin.
42
Think about it.
43
You take a baby from a poor family, leave it in the arms of Humeric Carbolin, and dump the baby at God knows where,
44
essentially, saying, I can create destiny.
45
Me.
46
Me.
47
I shape it.
48
I can reshuffle the cards.
49
Your husband's dead, your kid's missing, and you've got an unnamed kid.
50
I have no words.
51
Why'd she take a stranger's baby?
52
I don't know.
53
She just did.
54
Maybe the kid's really her husband's, and she knows.
55
She doesn't say anything to the police, thinks, I'll dig my own grave, or thinks the kid's innocent and keeps quiet.
56
Humira Karabolt, nowadays, only manages a practice field, never remarried.
57
Keeps to herself and looks after the kid who dropped in her lap.
58
Okay, so why has this case been reopened?
59
Why are we gathered here, talking about this 25 years later?
60
This is why.
61
This was sent to the prison.
62
Wondering who's in prison?
63
The kid in the car, who was dropped in Humira Karabullet's lap, named Khan Karabullet.
64
While he was merrily serving a five -year sentence for larceny, he received this for him to watch and learn.
65
Play this.
66
Supposedly, they sent it to the boy, and they actually wanted to send us a message.
67
They know we'll watch it.
68
They know we'll find out before the kid does.
69
See, they're saying this happened 25 years ago.
70
Did you forget?
71
They called me, so I went ahead and watched it.
72
I decided then and there that the kid should watch it too, that he should see it and find out.
73
Concarvalet watched it.
74
They have every single second on tape.
75
Recorded it on a camcorder 25 years ago. Who shot it?
76
Can't be the murderers themselves.
77
Don't know.
78
Watch first.
79
It's short, and we'll talk.
80
This is where it gets interesting.
81
Whoever sent this recording exposed the murderers one by one by name.
82
One of your father's murderers is Air John Senior, a .k .a.
83
Colick.
84
The other is Iskander Akai.
85
These two killers committed a murder under the order of Ilhan Tepelli.
86
Her job's son.
87
The guy in the back in the middle with a tie, dead of cancer last year.
88
At least that's what his death certificate says.
89
The guy right next to him is Iskander Akai.
90
He used to work with Ilhan Tepelli, but then they split.
91
Iskander is running his own string of jobs at the moment.
92
They seem to be considered rivals now.
93
Maybe the person who sent the tape isn't aware that Ayrjan Sonner's dead.
94
Maybe.
95
After all these years, they named the killers, including their addresses.
96
Who's naming them?
97
And who gained something from this revenge?
98
This is the problem we have to solve.
99
We don't see them put the baby in the car, Captain.
100
Yeah.
101
They didn't want the authorities to know that much.
102
Or maybe this is all they know as well.
103
So they didn't tell
104
Khan that he was someone else's kid?
105
They didn't.
106
They just wanted him to know who the killers were, so that when he gets out, he can find them and take them out.
107
Khan doesn't know the situation?
108
No. What about his mother, Humera?
109
I mean, does she know what we know?
110
I personally think Humera knows.
111
The thing is, we will keep this secret too and won't use it unless we need to.
112
Alright.
113
So now what?
114
Why do they want us to know?
115
What's being told on this DVD?
116
They want us to investigate Tepelli.
117
They know we're after him.
118
Who knows that, Bahar?
119
Who knows we're after Tepelli?
120
Who knows we're chasing after the Circle Network?
121
We're undercover.
122
There's only seven of us here.
123
It doesn't even matter whether we lock Ilhan Tepelli up for incitement to murder or not.
124
I'm not just after him.
125
I'm after those above him, the Circle Network.
126
There's no way I can arrest only Ilhan Tepele for incitement to murder and let him get away with the rest.
127
So what do we do now?
128
Cod.
129
Are you who I talk to?
130
The captain's inside.
131
What do I get out of it?
132
What?
133
Huh.
134
I want turnip juice.
135
Spicy.
136
What turnip juice?
137
I had this juice one time.
138
Just one time.
139
I'm neither mad about it nor against it, but it was on my mind while on my way here.
140
Since you both came to visit me, it's the least you could do, for goodness sake.
141
Maybe throw in a derm as well.
142
Enjoy.
143
This feels wrong.
144
Should I tear a piece for you?
145
Thanks.
146
We already ate.
147
Hmm.
148
They say when one eats and the other watches, it creates disaster.
149
Between these walls is the academy of disasters.
150
The lesson today, pacing.
151
Rising against the turning wheels of life.
152
You get me, Captain.
153
I do.
154
How long until you get out?
155
Ask me questions I don't know the answer to.
156
We can pick it up or I'll ask you one and go full speed.
157
What do you want from me?
158
For you to work with us.
159
We know about the DVD that you got.
160
Did you send it?
161
No. They just want to use you as a tool.
162
As far as I know, you want that too, Cap.
163
You offered me a job.
164
Uh -huh.
165
But I'm the police.
166
Who they are is unknown.
167
I treated you to lunch, fed you, and I'll do it again.
168
I can get you out.
169
And I can make your father's killer pay for their crime and bring us all justice.
170
All right, let's speak more openly and not slow down.
171
What do I need to do?
172
We want you to get a job with Tepele and get into his close circle.
173
Well, he murdered my father.
174
He's important to me.
175
But why is this Tepele important to you?
176
Take a look at the man in the middle.
177
His name is Ilhan Tepele.
178
He gathers and distributes money to the network.
179
He's a contractor and importer on paper, but his real job is to gather the money and distribute it.
180
What's important to us is not where the money is from, but to whom he distributes.
181
Use you as a tool?
182
Tepele is someone's tool.
183
I want the hand that holds the tool.
184
Why me?
185
What about using someone like that pro over there?
186
I mean, I'm just a petty criminal.
187
I'm not clean.
188
Hi.
189
Thanks.
190
Sugar?
191
No, none.
192
This is our duty.
193
But it's a matter of life and death to you.
194
When I start something, I prefer the people working on it with me have a backbone.
195
And that they have a personal link to it.
196
And you're that person.
197
If you care about your future, you'll quickly see that working for us will be to your benefit.
198
You'll get out of prison.
199
You'll avenge your father.
200
You'll work with the state.
201
Thus a new life for you.
202
He killed my father.
203
Why would he employ the son of a man whom he murdered?
204
Think of it the other way around.
205
Who would want to work for the man who got his father killed?
206
Why bother?
207
You could just shoot him?
208
True.
209
I know myself.
210
What happens if I just shoot Tapelli?
211
You come back here.
212
You're familiar, after all.
213
Oh, there's been an injustice.
214
They threw him in jail for nothing.
215
Huh, baby?
216
Come on, tell us.
217
It's fun to listen to.
218
Conker a bullet.
219
You're smart enough to understand what I'm offering you, right? And...
220
What happens to the guy who sent the DVD?
221
Nothing at all.
222
Them, you, me, Bahar, we're all on the same side.
223
We all want Ilhan to Pele.
224
We don't know who sent the DVD, and we won't unless they want us to.
225
Besides, the person who sent the DVD will help you until you take down Ilhan Tepele.
226
And if they come forward?
227
We'll worry about it then.
228
We'll be close by.
229
Bahar and I will help you in any way possible.
230
Who's this?
231
He wasn't in the film.
232
Cihangir.
233
Tepeli.
234
Son.
235
Well, he's got his son in his doorstep.
236
Uh -huh.
237
What do you need me for?
238
You'll gain his trust as well.
239
What is this?
240
A free ride?
241
Jihon Gear
242
Talk, Adam.
243
Jagir, I'm in front of this soccer guy at Khan's house.
244
All right, I'm almost there.
245
How's the scene?
246
Calm, boss.
247
No movement.
248
The entire place looks asleep.
249
I wish we sold the guy to the Qataris already so we wouldn't have to deal with him anymore.
250
Welcome, boss.
251
The city had brought the girl in after the game.
252
The guys at the door told me it's been about an hour.
253
Any cameras?
254
Yes, boss.
255
They wipe the footage once a month.
256
My man from Cherum, what's up?
257
All good with him.
258
I just chatted it up with him, boss.
259
Chunkiri, Cherum, they're close cities.
260
He was at the door when they came in. Which block?
261
15th floor, boss.
262
B block.
263
This way, boss.
264
IRAM Mobile.
265
I'll get the footage on the way out, boss.
266
Junk, kitty.
267
Jeroom, greasing your palm is what I told him, boss.
268
Gee, Hungirabi, this is all terrible.
269
I'm going through hell here.
270
Everything's done for.
271
It's unreal.
272
Completely ridiculous.
273
All right, calm down.
274
Hey, where's the body?
275
Dude, don't say body, man.
276
My life's turned upside down.
277
Get up.
278
Any other cameras in this hallway?
279
What?
280
Oh yeah, there are.
281
This is an intelligent building.
282
Very smart.
283
Screw your smarts.
284
Get inside.
285
Move, you idiot.
286
Move, move, move.
287
Yes, boss.
288
Get the girl's stuff.
289
On it, boss.
290
Hey, you.
291
Did anyone see you leave the club?
292
Yeah, dude.
293
Everyone was there.
294
They took a photo, boss.
295
Hey, did she send it to anyone?
296
Yeah, she sent it to me.
297
As a keepsake, obviously.
298
How long have you known this girl?
299
Dude, we just met.
300
No relationship or anything.
301
I haven't even touched the girl yet.
302
Jungerabi, help me.
303
I swear I didn't do anything.
304
Well, how did she die then?
305
Dude, I just went to the bathroom, and when I got back, she was lying like this. And?
306
And she's dead.
307
Nein.
308
Well, how did she die?
309
Dude, I really don't know.
310
No signs of battery, boss.
311
Dude, there wasn't a fight or anything.
312
I have an upcoming transfer.
313
This girl just messaged me on WhatsApp, and I just said, this goal goes out to you, for Dietsch.
314
Hey, Hakan, the girl's dead.
315
What are you going on about?
316
Kainanung!
317
She was dead when I got here, man.
318
The girl's not dead, you idiot.
319
Wake her up.
320
Of course, boss.
321
What's that, Aldem?
322
Ether, boss.
323
Aldem, what are you doing with that?
324
Just handle it, Autumn.
325
Okay, boss.
326
Hey, were you going to let me bury this witch alive?
327
Aw, dude, you're awesome!
328
Ah, super!
329
Super!
330
Get the girl to a hospital.
331
Right away, boss.
332
Hey, you're coming with me.
333
You'll stay at a hotel or something.
334
Okay, dude.
335
Yeah, I can stay at the facilities tonight.
336
Stay wherever the hell you want.
337
Just get out of my sight.
338
I'll damn get the security footage, all right?
339
She may well yet die at the hospital.
340
Boss, take it easy.
341
This girl will live.
342
Look at her, all wiggly.
343
Psst, sis.
344
Where are you from?
345
I'll handle it, boss.
346
Let's go.
347
Come on, come on.
348
Captain, why are we placing our trust in the criminal?
349
It's not about trust.
350
Someone wants to put this kid in the mix.
351
Let's just say I'm letting them.
352
What if it's a trap?
353
I'm taking a risk.
354
However, less than the risk I'd have taken if one of us were to do it.
355
So if we lose anyone, it won't be us.
356
We'll just lose a criminal we got out of there.
357
Well, that's the real risk.
358
I feel like it's almost impossible that we don't lose Konkar Balut, Captain.
359
Someone in prison at that age is already living a wasted life.
360
I'm giving him another chance.
361
Do you think he understood that?
362
He's a smart kid.
363
He doesn't just sit there.
364
He gives a darn and doesn't want to go under.
365
Remember what he said?
366
I want to sleep on it.
367
I'll let you know tomorrow.
368
He's calculating.
369
Won't jump right into it.
370
Distances himself.
371
Which is good.
372
Welcome home, sir.
373
Jiang here.
374
My dear boy, welcome home.
375
How are you?
376
What's up with that fiancé of yours?
377
She sits here frowning, doesn't speak a word.
378
She'll just fade away.
379
I'll talk to her.
380
No talking.
381
She won't just be marrying you, she'll marry me as well.
382
She's mad at you.
383
Why am I being punished for it?
384
How's it my fault?
385
I said I'll talk to her, Mom.
386
Don't talk.
387
You'll tell her, and she'll do it.
388
What's up, Aram? been waiting for you
389
i'm tired you're suffering from insomnia johan gear with what's happening with my dad
390
you need to see a doctor you're not just tired
391
so you don't want to talk about it now talk think you're doing me a favor or something
392
Of course I'll talk.
393
You don't even answer my calls.
394
Why didn't you?
395
You too busy for me?
396
I've been working around.
397
I've been doing my job.
398
Your dad's happy about that.
399
But what about me, Jahangir?
400
You're tired with me.
401
Where are you going with this, Aram?
402
Hmm?
403
Just get there and I'll talk.
404
We weren't like this before.
405
What happened to you?
406
Aren't you supposed to care about me?
407
You give that a shot.
408
Give that a shot?
409
I'm not doing this, Aram.
410
I'm just trying to keep up.
411
Trying to keep up with it all.
412
Answer it.
413
It's your dad.
414
Work won't wait.
415
Your dad won't wait.
416
Your girlfriend will, though.
417
Your fiancé will wait.
418
Your dad's in the garden.
419
What's up, Irem Hanem?
420
Well, sounds like she's mad.
421
What's happening, Ji Young Gear?
422
No, kid, I'm asking what's happening with the soccer player.
423
Oh, nothing, Dad.
424
It's not what we feared.
425
The girl just fainted.
426
Passed out.
427
Hell, if I could sell that idiot to the Qataris before he really messes up.
428
He won't mess up, Dad.
429
I'll pick up the Qataris from the airport tomorrow.
430
If somebody told me that, I'll be doing business with the Qataris ten years ago, I'd never believe it.
431
Am I right?
432
It's fate, Dan.
433
It's fate.
434
It's not.
435
It's not.
436
People, they can create their own kismet.
437
If I just sat there like a cow, Now, stuck upon my reputation of years, huh?
438
Am I wrong?
439
I could never be that guy.
440
Do you know what separates me from my peers?
441
They think you wage war on the streets and end it at the table.
442
The real war is fought at the table.
443
If I am setting up a factory in Beijing, if I'm opening up a hotel and keeping it in Moscow,
444
that places me somewhere else, doesn't it?
445
Those guys with the 40 -year -old swagger, they live on borrowed time, Xi 'an -Gi.
446
That's one.
447
Two.
448
Every boat has its mice.
449
you have to rock it you always have to rock
450
it there's no going i won't do this i won't do
451
that business means rocking it you gotta rock it who knows those mice may hand you the ship itself and that's two
452
okay dad the boat i'll rock it
453
It loosens the tongue, this stuff.
454
One last thing.
455
I hear they're poking around.
456
I hear that they're saying my boat's old and has to be decommissioned.
457
Who's saying that?
458
You keep saying that.
459
Give me an address.
460
I'll go look.
461
I know.
462
You'll look.
463
If I find the address, I'll tell you, my son.
464
Intelligence Section Chief, Alton Demoras.
465
You How long has it been, Bahar?
466
Since you got into intelligence?
467
Four years, Chief.
468
Four years, huh?
469
So, do you remember what we talked about four years ago?
470
I do, Chief.
471
The state comes first.
472
You'll hear that from everyone.
473
Some of them will hide behind those words and lie.
474
They'll chase after something else.
475
I said that, no?
476
I know, Chief.
477
It's on my mind.
478
But I've been working under Captain Sandefjie for three years now.
479
I mean, I failed to doubt him.
480
Wait a second.
481
If I said to Sundicca, Jamal, I want to report on Bahar, follow and analyze her, what would he do?
482
He would do all that without a moment's hesitation.
483
We set our emotions aside in this line of work.
484
Jamal Sundicca has been working on this a long time.
485
He didn't once bring me something tangible.

Think about it.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
