Episode 26 recap: Song Zhuo Wen pretended to be tortured.
Someone had tampered with their office's password box, but Song Zhuo Wen caught them red-handed. Frightened, the person quickly surrendered and offered to be on Song Zhuo Wen's side, seeking an escape route. Guan Xue found Xie Yue, but Song Zhuo Wen did not approach him again. Fortunately, Song Zhuo Wen returned safely.
Guan Xue instructed Xie Yue to continue monitoring Song Zhuo Wen. Xie Yue pleaded with Guan Xue to spare her, as she couldn't handle such things. The things they all said and did were completely different. However, Guan Xue stared at her, reminding her that she was no different. They were all the same.
Guan Xue brought Xie Yue to Song Zhuo Wen's home. Xie Yue was deeply saddened when she saw Song Zhuo Wen. She asked him what he had been through, but Song Zhuo Wen dismissed it, saying it was nothing. Xie Yue, however, cried and hugged him from behind, not saying a word but crying incessantly.
Guan Xue quickly found He Shan's personal information and photos as soon as he arrived in Harbin. Guan Xue deduced that He Shan liked theater and immediately published related news in the newspaper. When He Shan saw the newspaper, he couldn't resist the temptation and went to the theater, only to be caught in the act. The next morning, Song Zhuo Wen learned that Song Zhuo Wen and Hu Bin had captured a Communist Party member and had interrogated him all night, but He Shan remained unyielding and refused to say anything.
Guan Xue and Hu Bin were ruthless. Song Zhuo Wen went to Guan Xue to inquire about the situation, knowing that this was a comrade from Fengtian. If things continued like this, they would surely be overwhelmed, and time was running out. Song Zhuo Wen cut a deep gash on his own arm with a knife and then went to the infirmary to get painkillers, intending to give them to He Shan.
However, when he returned to the interrogation room, He Shan had a change of heart. He only wanted to survive, but Guan Xue and Hu Bin were arrogant and unwilling to reveal the meeting time easily. Song Zhuo Wen secretly gave him the painkillers, urging him to hold on and not give up. However, when facing Guan Xue, He Shan couldn't bear it anymore and revealed the meeting time and location.
To everyone's surprise, Guan Xue and Hu Bin changed their minds again and refused to let He Shan go. He Shan immediately broke down and pointed to Song Zhuo Wen beside him, saying that he was also one of them. He also exposed the fact that Song Zhuo Wen had just given him morphine. Song Zhuo Wen was furious, and his brain was racing to come up with a solution.
Hu Bin immediately took Song Zhuo Wen into custody, and Guan Xue smirked upon seeing the broken He Shan. Aunt Chang's true identity was the Chief of the Communications Department, who had been secretly infiltrating Song Zhuo Wen's side. Song Zhuo Wen returned to the prison cell after being tortured and was locked up with He Shan. However, as soon as the conversation revealed He Shan's true information, Guan Xue quickly left the cell.
It turned out that everything that had just happened was a play orchestrated by Song Zhuo Wen and Guan Xue, all to extract information from He Shan. Guan Xue instructed Song Zhuo Wen to get ready for action, but before he could make a phone call, Guan Xue called him to move. Song Zhuo Wen said he had left something behind and went back to the office, but no one answered Qian Chong Li's call because he and Song Zhuo Wu were already on their way to the rendezvous point.
Minfu Street, 2:40 PM, twenty minutes away from the meeting time. It was raining heavily, and Guan Xue and Hu Bin kept an eye on everyone around them. Song Zhuo Wen found a child and figured out a way to send a message through him. Hu Bin thought he was afraid of harming the child and called him a Communist Party member. Guan Xue didn't know if he was serious and said, "He is a Communist Party member."
Song Zhuo Wen found the child and located Song Zhuo Wu. Sensing something was wrong, Song Zhuo Wu fired a shot into the air, causing chaos on the bustling street. In order to save their lives, the people scattered in all directions, but they were indiscriminately captured and killed by the military police, turning the streets into rivers of blood.
