Episode 17 recap: Pang Hong Mei rescues He Xi Wen.
Lai Guang Run took the initiative to kidnap He Xi Wen, but He Xi Wen refused to say anything. Lai Guang Run was extremely anxious. When Li Guang Ming returned home from work, he noticed that something was wrong and suspected that he was being followed. Lai Guang Run was worried that the police would trace him through his impersonation of Zhou Jun and force He Xi Wen to reveal the progress of the experimental pool. However, He Xi Wen remained silent despite the threats and intimidation from Lai Guang Run. Lai Guang Run and Liu Si Mao discussed a plan to break the deadlock.
Chen Dong Sheng, Pang Hong Mei, and others calculated the approximate location based on the angle of the reflected sunlight in the photos. Zhang Yan determined the search area and deployed the officers to search separately. Miao Hui Lan brought food to He Xi Wen and urged her to disclose the experimental data and information. However, He Xi Wen remained firm. Miao Hui Lan blamed Lai Guang Run for acting impulsively and worried about causing more trouble, but Lai Guang Run disregarded those concerns. He wanted to silence He Xi Wen, so he ordered Liu Si Mao to seal all the doors and windows of the thatched cottage.
Inside the cottage, there was a valuable lion-shaped clock. The officers discovered that it belonged to the prestigious Li family in Lumen. Zhang Yan invited Mr. Chen, who used to work for the Li family, and he remembered that the lion clock was stored in Su Liang Village before the Li family left. Lai Guang Run called Chen Dong Sheng and asked him to bring Ji Dan Yang's notebook and meet him at the riverside of Xilu River at 2 p.m. Zhang Yan realized that the fake Zhou Jun was deliberately misleading them and sent Pang Hong Mei and Ding Jie to Su Liang Village, while Chen Dong Sheng and Tong Bin went to Xilu River.
Lai Guang Run went to the instrument factory to make a delivery, but the security guard refused to let him in, so he had to unload the goods at the factory gate. Chen Dong Sheng and Tong Bin arrived at Xilu River and found a letter there, instructing the expert team to stop the water droplet project, or more lives would be lost.
Meanwhile, Pang Hong Mei, Ding Jie, and others arrived at Su Liang Village and successfully rescued He Xi Wen. Liu Si Mao watched from a distance and witnessed everything. He Xi Wen had her eyes covered, but she clearly remembered the conversation between the two enemy agents.
Lai Guang Run approached Li Guang Ming for negotiation. He promised to let Li Guang Ming leave Lumen and reunite with his girlfriend Qian Qian if he cooperated in destroying the experimental pool. Li Guang Ming reluctantly agreed. The library held an exhibition of calligraphy and painting, attracting many art enthusiasts. One person stood in front of Zhou Jun's painting for a long time and asked others about the author of the artwork.
Ji Dan Yang's health gradually improved, and he wanted to visit the construction site. Pang Hong Mei and Bai Hui had to push him there in a wheelchair. To their surprise, Ji Dan Yang stood up from the wheelchair, as if he had transformed into a different person. Pang Hong Mei and Bai Hui were delighted for him.
After returning from the construction site, Ji Dan Yang went to the dormitory feeling an unprecedented sense of joy. He Xi Wen came to see him, and Ji Dan Yang emphasized the importance of the experimental pool being formed in one go, or else all efforts would be wasted. The experimental pool was scheduled to be poured tomorrow, and the factory leaders decided to establish a temporary medical team for the pool. Lu Cheng recommended Bai Hui to join, but Bai Hui was not interested.
Chen Dong Sheng made careful arrangements to prevent enemy agents from causing any damage and ensure the smooth completion of the experimental pool. The art exhibition attracted many visitors, but the fake Zhou Jun had not shown up yet. Lao Jiang learned that Zhou Jun's painting style was unique, and shortly before the liberation, Lai Changqing had consulted a teacher named Yanping from the Provincial Academy of Fine Arts about this painting style. Zhang Yan instructed Lao Jiang to continue investigating Lai Changqing's whereabouts.
Chen Dong Sheng assigned Pang Hong Mei to protect the safety of the expert team at the construction site, in case the fake Zhou Jun attempted any sabotage. Zhang Yan received verification information from the provincial department, revealing that Li Guang Ming's girlfriend was in Hong Kong. Zhang Yan ordered Chen Dong Sheng to keep a close eye on Li Guang Ming and instructed Pang Hong Mei to inform Li Guang Ming that he would need to work overtime tonight. Pang Hong Mei was then sent to search Li Guang Ming's home.
Ge Yun assigned Luo Shanshan and Bai Hui to the construction site to ensure safety measures were in place. They stood guard prepared for any situation. Li Guang Ming became increasingly suspicious and lied about having something to do at home, asking others to deliver equipment to the construction site. He hurriedly returned home that night. Pang Hong Mei was conducting an investigation at his house when Li Guang Ming arrived. He had spread flour outside his house, and there were no footprints on it. Still not reassured, Li Guang Ming searched the room but found nothing unusual. He took a document from the drawer and left. Pang Hong Mei observed everything from a hiding spot.
Pang Hong Mei found a letter and photos from Qian Qian in Li Guang Ming's home and promptly handed them over to Chen Dong Sheng. Chen Dong Sheng confirmed that Li Guang Ming was an undercover enemy agent. Suddenly, he received a call from his subordinates informing him that Nian Tuo Tuo had arrived in Lumen. Chen Dong Sheng knew that Nian Tuo Tuo had come for the pouring of the experimental pool the next day. Pang Hong Mei immediately rushed to the train station.
From a distance, Pang Hong Mei saw Nian Tuo Tuo and Li Guang Ming meeting in front of a billboard. Li Guang Ming took the large bag that Nian Tuo Tuo had brought. Pang Hong Mei instructed her subordinates to arrest Nian Tuo Tuo and followed Li Guang Ming to the night market. The night market was brightly lit, and people took to the streets to enjoy the festive lights.
