Episode 7 recap: Ma Kui and Wang Xin found an abandoned baby.
Yao Yu Ling saw Wang Yong Ge doing laundry and enthusiastically went over to help, even offering to wash Wang Yong Ge's clothes. Just as Yao Yu Ling took the clothes to wash them, Ma Yan came looking for Wang Xin. She acted as if she were Wang Xin's wife and interrogated Ma Yan about the reason for seeking Wang Xin, wanting to pass on a message for Ma Yan.
Ma Yan ignored Yao Yu Ling and continued calling for Wang Xin, which ended up summoning Wang Yong Ge instead. Ma Yan confirmed that Wang Xin was really not at home, and just as she was about to leave, Wang Xin returned and she warmly invited him into the room.
Ma Yan approached Wang Xin to discuss a problem while Yao Yu Ling continued washing clothes, trying to observe their situation. Ma Yan noticed everything. Ma Yan purposely wanted to annoy Yao Yu Ling, so she falsely claimed that it was hot inside the room and insisted that Wang Xin come to the door to solve the problem. She even made jokes with Wang Xin to infuriate Yao Yu Ling.
Yao Yu Ling wanted to disturb Wang Xin and offer help with the laundry, but Wang Xin flatly refused. At that moment, Niu Da Li came with clothes, hoping Yao Yu Ling would help with washing. Yao Yu Ling claimed that Niu Da Li's clothes had too much coal dust and quickly wrung out her own clothes, ignoring Niu Da Li.
Yao Yu Ling went back to hang the clothes to dry, while Ma Yan continued joking with Wang Xin, which made Wang Yong Ge inside the room very worried. During work hours, Niu Da Li took advantage of a break to ask Wu Zhang Gui and Cai Da Nian for suggestions, hoping to find a way to successfully pursue Yao Yu Ling.
Ma Kui and Wang Xin were conducting inspections on a train when a passenger in a sleeper cabin started making a fuss, claiming that after using a restroom, he came back and his shoes were missing. Upon hearing the passenger's description, Wang Xin asked the other passengers in the same cabin, but no one had any leads. Finally, he focused his suspicion on an elderly man. Wang Xin wanted to check the man's bag, but the man pretended not to hear and hesitated to take out his bag for inspection. However, Ma Kui understood the man's predicament and stopped Wang Xin from continuing the search.
Ma Kui told the passenger that they would search elsewhere for the shoes and took Wang Xin away. Wang Xin didn't understand Ma Kui's actions and anxiously waited for the results in the dining car compartment. At that moment, the elderly man came with the shoes, claiming that he thought someone else had left them behind, so he picked them up.
Ma Kui accepted the man's explanation and didn't want to pursue it further, but Wang Xin believed that if the man had stolen the shoes, he was a thief and insisted on arresting him.
Ma Kui stopped Wang Xin from taking action and frightened the old man to the point of trembling. After the old man left, Ma Kui told Wang Xin that they should give the old man a chance to reform and not pursue the matter any further.
As usual, Ma Kui was patrolling on the train when he noticed Bai Yu Xia sleeping alone on the train. When they reached Haihe, Bai Yu Xia still didn't get off the train, so Ma Kui immediately went over to wake her up and helped her get her luggage off the train. Lao Xia Zi boarded the train again, and when Ma Kui noticed, he gave him another ticket so he could get off smoothly.
When they were close to the station, Lao Xia Zi smelled an unusual scent on Liu Gui Ying in the crowded aisle and felt that something was wrong but familiar. So he followed her. Lao Xia Zi couldn't see Liu Gui Ying and got dispersed by the crowd as they were getting off the train, failing to catch up to Liu Gui Ying. At that moment, Wang Xin and Ma Kui were in their positions on the train and discovered an abandoned baby.
Wang Xin ran out of the door shouting to see who had lost a child, but nobody responded. He and Ma Kui could only take the baby back with them. There was nobody at the police station available to take care of the child, so Ma Kui had to take the baby home. Ma Yan happened to take a glance at the baby because it was sleeping, and she noticed that it had a rash all over its body.
Ma Kui and his wife took the baby to Shen Xiu Ping to have it checked. They confirmed that the baby didn't have any serious illnesses, so they took some medicine and went home. However, the baby kept crying non-stop, which made it impossible for Ma Yan to study seriously. Wang Xin asked Ma Kui about the baby's situation and suggested that they keep the baby at their house and let Lu's wife help take care of it, but Ma Kui was concerned about the baby's illness and wanted to keep it for a while longer.
The baby's condition improved, but its parents still hadn't been found. Shen Xiu Ping could only remind Ma Kui and his wife to be mentally prepared as it might be an abandoned baby. Ma Kui went back to the police station to inquire about the situation and confirmed that the baby's parents hadn't been found. He could only go back and discuss with Wang Su Fang about handing the baby over to the welfare institution.
Wang Su Fang was reluctant to give up the baby, but her health couldn't handle taking care of it. She had to listen to Ma Kui and let him take the baby away. After the baby was taken away, Wang Su Fang felt especially heartbroken because her second child had a miscarriage due to complications after Ma Kui was arrested. She felt that this baby was like her deceased child, so she couldn't bear to part with it.
Ma Kui delivered all the baby's belongings to the welfare institution and asked them to contact him if they needed anything, promising to visit the baby regularly. However, as he turned to leave, the sleeping baby started crying again.
