Episode 9 recap: Gao Yang watched a video of his father being murdered.
Lei Nai Wu forced Guan Shu to confess that Chen Jing Ming sprained his foot and didn't leave the house for a week through his own means. Lei Nai Wu confirmed his suspicions that the person hiding in the mountains that year was not Chen Jing Ming, who had been shouldering all the responsibilities and protecting others for so many years. The person was actually Chen Jia Dong, a talented graduate from the chemical engineering school.
Therefore, Lei Nai Wu attended Chen Jing Ming's funeral and confronted Chen Jia Dong, using Guan Shu as leverage. Chen Jia Dong didn't say anything and only thanked Lei Nai Wu for coming to pay respects to his father.
In the evening, Gao Yang met with Zheng Dong Yu and Captain Li. He was still angry because they didn't inform him in advance that Xiao Kai was an informant. If he had known earlier, Xiao Kai wouldn't have almost lost his life. Captain Li told Gao Yang to calm down, as developing an informant was not easy, but fortunately, Xiao Kai was now safe.
Gao Yang briefed Captain Li on what had happened today. Captain Li didn't know the reason why Lei Nai Wu sought out Chen Jia Dong, but the immediate priority was to rescue Guan Shu. Lei Nai Wu received a USB drive containing a video of him and Chen Jing Ming committing murder. Lei Nai Wu was greatly frightened, and when Gao Yang asked him what was wrong, Lei Nai Wu deliberately concealed the truth and dismissed him.
As soon as Gao Yang left his room, Lei Nai Wu locked the door, arousing Gao Yang's suspicion that something was amiss.
Gao Yang learned that Lei Nai Wu had a safe, but his attempts to open it were unsuccessful. Through Captain Li, he obtained Lei Nai Wu's inmate number during his time in prison. He found an opportune moment to sneak into Lei Nai Wu's office and successfully opened the safe.
He saw the contents of the USB drive, which contained footage of Lei Nai Wu, Liu Qing, and Chen Jing Ming killing his father. Gao Yang silently clenched his fist. At that moment, Lei Nai Wu sat in front of A Fa's memorial portrait and had a conversation with him. He received a text message stating that Gao Yang was a police officer, but Lei Nai Wu didn't believe it. He knew that the message was sent by Chen Jia Dong, and he felt that the Chen father and son were trying to destroy him, so they began to sow discord.
Lei Nai Wu and Chen Jia Dong arranged to meet at the bathhouse. Lei Nai Wu recounted his past to him, how he had gone to collect a debt and ended up being chased and attacked by nine people. Despite sustaining several stab wounds to his back, he managed to defeat all nine of them. He wanted to convey to Chen Jia Dong that he wouldn't be afraid or run away just because of a murder video.
Furthermore, if Gao Yang was a police officer, why hadn't he arrested him? Chen Jia Dong was skilled at manipulating people's emotions. He only said one sentence to Lei Nai Wu: Gao Yang is his real father. This statement left Lei Nai Wu speechless. He immediately contacted his trustworthy associates and asked them to prepare a gun for him as quickly as possible.
Gao Yang, who knew the truth, was extremely angry. He believed that Captain Li had intentionally kept him in the dark. However, Captain Li was actually unaware that Gao Yang's father, Gao Jia Ling, was the informant. Later, when he checked the files in the archives, he discovered the truth. However, he couldn't reach Gao Yang afterwards, and Zheng Dong Yu was also unable to contact him.
