Episode 35 recap: Everyone seeks their own way out.

Director Yan arrived at the Special Operations Department, and Guan Xue found his backer as well. The members of the Special Operations Department gathered together to make dumplings, and Song Zhuo Wen pondered his own affairs. After finishing the dumplings, they sat together to eat. Everyone remarked that it was the first time they had dumplings outside of the New Year and festivals. Pan Yue sat in front of Song Zhuo Wen and provocatively hinted at something, to which Song Zhuo Wen retorted, "A dog bites a duck, but neither gains an advantage."

The Russians are about to fight the Japanese, and the Japanese are extremely vigilant. Section Chief Asano fabricated a fake telegram. In this war, everyone is looking for their own way out, and Section Chief Asano is also seeking his own escape route. He wants General Ishii to understand their importance so that he will never be abandoned. All of the American bombs fell on Harbin, causing anxiety for Guan Xue and Chief Jin. Has it really come to this? Chief Jin said that the Emperor's ancestral land is still there, but Guan Xue asked him if they really have no choice but to go to Japan. Chief Jin brought Aunt Chang over to start a new life, but Aunt Chang only took the money. Chief Jin understood that people were the most important.

Feeling unwilling to leave anyone behind, they wondered who among these people could be trusted and who could not, who should be taken along and who should be eliminated. Chief Jin hoped that Guan Xue had a clear understanding. Guan Xue received a call from Section Chief Asano and hurriedly went to meet him. Pan Yue was in charge of the logistics of the Special Operations Department and enjoyed a comfortable position, but he was not satisfied with it. Unlike him, Hu Bin was not ambitious, and he was only concerned about Guan Xue.

Guan Xue had been monitoring Pan Yue all along. After hearing his conversation with Hu Bin, Guan Xue decided to target Pan Yue. Chief Jin asked Song Zhuo Wen what to do, emphasizing the need to carefully consider the current situation, but Guan Xue was not in a hurry to take action against Song Zhuo Wen.

Song Zhuo Wen took Xie Yue out and was followed without realizing it. Little did he know that the mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole lies in wait. Song Zhuo Wu immediately followed as well. Song Zhuo Wu beat up the Japanese man, making sure he could clearly see the license plate number. As a result, the people who were tracking Song Zhuo Wen, brought by Hu Bin, were captured by the special high-class. Hu Bin was furious and went to Pan Yue's office to scold him.

The situation was in chaos. Song Zhuo Wen took the opportunity to move Qian Chong Li. Pan Yue was not worried that it would implicate the Special Operations Department. Hu Bin couldn't understand why Pan Yue had him follow Song Zhuo Wen. Pan Yue said there were two Song Zhuo Wens, both communists—one operating openly and the other in the shadows.

They had revealed some flaws, but they didn't have any evidence. Pan Yue said there was one person who could definitely tell them apart, and that person was Guan Xue. Guan Xue, who was listening to their conversation, also thought of the person he had encountered by chance and felt a little uneasy. Pan Yue discovered the listening devices in the office, but it was already too late.

The organization instructed Qian Chong Li and Song Zhuo Wen to investigate Unit 731 and what the Japanese were up to. Qian Chong Li's wound had become infected, so he called a foreign doctor to treat himself and reminded Song Zhuo Wen to check the financial reports.

Pan Yue met Mr. Ning, who asked him to hand over a list of underground Communist Party members in exchange for becoming the chief of the Nationalist Police Department, providing him with a way out. The Japanese escorted a top-secret document onto a train, and our underground party members were also on that train.
