Yun Hongqi stood there in a daze as Xiao Dao helped him get dressed. Yun Hongqi held the portrait of Old Mrs. Yun, and Yun Hongshen supported him as they buried her. In front of Old Mrs. Yun’s tombstone, Yun Hongqi said this was the last time he would see his grandmother, and he fainted from grief. Xiao Dao quickly supported him, and Yang Ziming arranged for him to go to a safe place with Xiao Dao by his side. Yun Hongshen said he wasn’t worried about safety, but about Yun Hongqi’s emotional state. Yang Ziming told him there was nothing they could do but let Yun Hongqi deal with it himself, and that if he persevered, he would surely become a real man.
Yun Hongshen believed that Yun Hongqi would be fine. Yun Hongqi and Xiao Dao arrived at a place near the water. The man in charge gave them a quilt, saying that even though it was summer, the nights were still cold. He asked Xiao Dao what they wanted to eat, and Xiao Dao said that Yun Hongqi didn’t have much of an appetite, so anything would do. Yun Hongqi told Xiao Dao that he missed his grandmother, and Xiao Dao felt very sad too.
Yun Hongshen looked at the blackboard where he had listed the recent events. He felt that Milan must be Gui Che, and that she had previously tried to use Li Miaohan to divert their attention to Zong Fang, wanting them to mistake Zong Fang for Kun Wu, thus protecting the real Kun Wu.
Chen Dongping told Wen Yeming that the carriage driver from that day was missing, and his carriage had also disappeared. Wen Yeming told him to investigate the people who killed Cong Hu and his mistress, as there might be clues there. Chen Dongping said that Cong Hu had heard that his mistress was ill and rushed back to her, taking a remote route where no one saw him, and the tire tracks on the road were all common with no particular issues.
Wen Yeming went to the home of Cong Hu’s mistress. He saw a ball of snow on the sofa and thought that the murderer might have been standing right there when he killed her. Just as Wen Yeming was about to leave, he saw Jin Gui. Jin Gui said that she had someone watching the place, so she knew whenever anyone came.
Wen Yeming said that she dared to spy on him, and Jin Gui said that she also wanted to help find the murderer of Old Mrs. Yun. She said that she really didn’t kill Old Mrs. Yun, and that even when Bai Qingkui was alive, he didn’t dare to offend Yun Hongqi, let alone now. Wen Yeming said that he knew she wasn’t the murderer, and asked Jin Gui who the person who shipped the goods on July 2nd was. Jin Gui said that they really didn’t know who it was, as that was the rule of the江湖 (jianghu – the world of martial arts).
In order not to implicate Captain Tang, Meng Ying went to the entrance of Xiaoyao Residence to find Jin Gui. She tore up the contract and said that it had nothing to do with Captain Tang. Meng Ying said that she would not let Jin Gui harm Captain Tang, and then she committed suicide with a pair of scissors.
Milan received a phone call saying that Teacher Zhou from their girls’ school wanted to ask her about Su Xiao. Milan said that Su Xiao had died in the fire last year, and Teacher Zhou said it was a pity. As soon as Milan turned around, she saw Wen Yeming. Just as she was about to speak to him, he left. Milan felt that this Teacher Zhou was not a good person and wondered who was investigating her behind the scenes.
Yun Hongshen followed Milan and discovered that they should be exchanging information at the phone booth. Zong Fang had already discovered that Milan was being followed. When Milan returned home, she saw a letter at the door telling her to go to a certain place if she needed anything.
Yun Hongshen arranged to meet with Zhu He and said that he had a way to make Ling Han reveal his true self.
Jin Gui felt uncomfortable because of Meng Ying’s death, so she committed suicide in front of Bai Qingkui’s portrait. Because of Meng Ying’s death, there was no one to look after Captain Tang’s two children. Secretary Wu told him that the Party organization had a school for the two children to go to, because Captain Tang was also a member of the Party, and his code name was Night Hawk.
A shootout occurred in Shanghai. Yang Ziming received a call and told Secretary Wu that they had a guest coming to Changsha and asked Night Hawk to pick him up. Yun Hongshen told Captain Tang that the murderer of Cong Hu was Cao Yuan. Yun Hongshen knew that Cao Yuan would definitely go to Milan after he knew he was exposed. Since Milan had just been questioned by Teacher Zhou, and now with this incident, she would definitely go to Kun Wu.
