Episode 8 recap: Su Xing was accidentally implicated as the killer while pursuing Fatty.
Under Su Xing's investigation, they finally got a lead on Fatty, but Fatty resisted fiercely, and it was not easy for Su Xing to catch him. During the chase, Fatty was stabbed by someone with a hidden weapon, and he collapsed and died of poisoning shortly after. In this way, Su Xing naturally became the murderer in everyone's eyes.
Although Su Xing explained in the police station that he was wronged, Li Wen Bo did not listen to his defense and asked him to provide his identity. Luo Guanying was still worried that even if Su Xing went to the police station, the Communist Party would spare no effort to rescue him, and wanted to make Su Xing disappear as soon as possible, otherwise there would be endless trouble.
As soon as Tong Sheng left, Su Xing returned to the room, his face changed, and the next second he started fighting with Fatty who was ambushed behind the door. Seeing that he was no match for Su Xing, Fatty turned and ran downstairs, and Su Xing chased after him. Unexpectedly, Wu Yaman and others were disguised at the intersection, and they took the opportunity to inject him with something, causing Fatty to collapse on the spot and die of poisoning.
In this way, Su Xing naturally became the murderer in everyone's eyes. Although Su Xing explained in the police station that he was wronged, the police officer Old Cai did not listen to any of his explanations. Li Wen Bo immediately came to the police station interrogation room and threatened Old Cai to hand over the case to him, and Old Cai had to agree, while Su Xing concealed his identity from Li Wen Bo.
Tong Sheng was confused at home, thinking about what Su Xing had said, and told Tong Jiang Nan about his visit to Su Xing. But Tong Jiang Nan felt that it was dangerous for Tong Sheng to do so, because they could not yet fully confirm Su Xing's true identity, so the top priority was to find Luo Guanying.
Zhou Yaming received the news that Su Xing was arrested and immediately organized everyone to prepare to rescue Su Xing. Now that Su Xing was imprisoned, he knew that it was completely impossible for him to gain Tong Sheng's trust, and it was also very difficult to prevent the teacher from being deceived by Luo Guanying. Cha Liangjie found that Fatty died of cyanide poisoning, and he died within a few seconds of being injected. Li Wen Bo thus inferred that he was killed by someone at the scene while running.
That night, Dang Xun Qi and Yang, the deputy officer of the Kuomintang forces, conducted a large arms deal. Due to the massive quantity, Dang Xun Qi had to pay a substantial down payment first, and after much hesitation, he took out all the money he had saved up in Hong Kong.
Li Wen Bo came to the nightclub to find Lin Shi Man again, inquiring about the matter he had entrusted her with previously. Lin Shi Man prevaricated, but ultimately her lies were exposed by Li Wen Bo, who pointed out her spy identity and real name - Yu Mei Hua.
As a result, Lin Shi Man no longer concealed the truth, and could only agree to cooperate with Li Wen Bo, on the condition that he would guarantee her personal safety. Subsequently, Lin Shi Man went to find Dang Xun Qi and informed him about her meeting with Li Wen Bo. Dang Xun Qi knew that Li Wen Bo was no simple person, and reminded her not to be careless.
Now Lin Shi Man had arranged Zhuang Lao Da's boat, but Zhuang Lao Da charged an extra 10% in boat fees. The next day, Luo Guan Ying met with Dang Xun Qi and put pressure on him, demanding that he quickly eliminate Su Xing, otherwise the Communist Party would stop at nothing to rescue Su Xing even if he was in the police station.
Although Dang Xun Qi outwardly agreed, he still had reservations. Meanwhile, Zhou Ya Ming, in order to rescue Su Xing, specifically went to find the British Consul-General, wanting to plead for Su Xing, but the British official remained unmoved. In the course of their casual chat, Zhou Ya Ming learned that the British official was infatuated with a painting, so he thought of finding this painting to bribe the other party.
Tong Sheng angrily came to the office and rebuked Chen Xue Wei for making a mistake in the data. Chen Xue Wei took the opportunity to complain to Zhang Shao Mu, acting as if she was very aggrieved. Zhang Shao Mu comforted her and said that rigorousness was the attitude that a scientist should possess, and Chen Xue Wei then proposed taking him to dinner that night.
Tong Jiang Nan privately spoke with Zhang Shao Mu, expressing that Tong Sheng had great talent in chemistry, and hoped that Zhang Shao Mu could take good care of her, so as not to let other matters affect her. Zhang Shao Mu, who already liked Tong Sheng, readily agreed and said he would always accompany Tong Sheng.
