Episode 16 recap: Everyone reminisced about the past
Through the court's verdict, Hai Qingyue's charge of involuntary manslaughter was not established, and she was acquitted on the spot. However, she still felt guilty in her heart.
Guo Qiang waited for the two of them outside the court, wanting to confront them, but was stopped by security. Luo Qiang accused Hai Qingyue of being a murderer and believed that she should pay the price. However, Zuo Yuan felt that Hai Qingyue had already paid a sufficient price due to her transformation.
Luo Qiang took Zuo Yuan to a secret room and tied him to a chair. He asked Zuo Yuan if he remembered what day it was today. Zuo Yuan, being anxious, didn't think too much and realized that today was Shao Xiang's birthday. At this moment, Luo Qiang pulled back a curtain, revealing Hai Qingyue inside a large glass bathtub, her eyes vacant. Seeing Hai Qingyue, Zuo Yuan felt very worried.
At this moment, everyone also remembered the past. After graduating, Hai Qingyue planned to start her own business using her expertise and took Shao Xiang with her. Shao Xiang was very supportive of Hai Qingyue, and even during the process of technical research, Hai Qingyue and Zuo Yuan had arguments. Zuo Yuan always opposed Hai Qingyue using people directly for experiments because it was only theoretically feasible and had not been proven successful through real experiments.
Due to Hai Qingyue's insistence on the experiment, it failed, and Shao Xiang passed away. Hai Qingyue felt guilty all along. However, the court ruled that the charge of involuntary manslaughter was not established, and Hai Qingyue was acquitted. But Luo Qiang never forgave Hai Qingyue.
The guilt in her heart caused Hai Qingyue to lose her mental stability. She moved the laboratory to her own home and constantly tried to transform herself into Shao Xiang as compensation. However, the experiment was unsuccessful. Hai Qingyue endured torment in her mind and soul. After a car accident, her personality completely split, and she always believed she was Shao Xiang.
