A Lonely Hero’s Journey 孤舟 Episode 14

After the Changzhou military ration case, Japanese high-level officials were furious. Kondo Masao assigned Gu Yizhong to investigate the matter thoroughly. Zhou Zhifei knew that once the truth was exposed, his collusion with Ding Jiansheng would be revealed and the consequences would be disastrous. Ding Jiansheng disappeared again because of the recovered items. The suspicion pointed directly at Gu Yizhong, who used the posture of the webmaster to forcefully inquire about Ding Jiansheng's whereabouts, but Gu Yizhong cleverly avoided it on the grounds of being hungover at Gao Hu's place overnight.

Zhou Zhifei did not hesitate to torture Gao Hu in order to force Gu Yizhong to reveal the truth. However, Gao Hu knew that Gu Yizhong's trip was actually to seek medicine for his mother. His loyalty and loyalty made him grit his teeth and refuse to confess. Faced with the deadlock, Zhou Zhifei could only give up trying to break through Gu Yizhong, and instead ordered Xie Wenchao and Captain Zhang to increase their efforts to hunt down Ding Jiansheng, asserting that Gao Hu was no longer reliable and needed to find another way out. This turmoil has caused undercurrents among various forces, making the situation even more complicated and confusing.

Zhou Zhifei is facing many difficulties at this moment, with internal and external troubles intertwined. In order to quickly get rid of Quan Shui's entanglement, he quickly replied to Xu Enzeng's letter and thoughtfully bought a boat ticket for Quan Shui, knowing that the main purpose of her trip was to get a clear answer. However, after Quan Shui received the letter, not only did he have no intention of leaving, but he became more determined to spend the rest of his life with Zhou Zhifei. She snuggled tenderly next to Zhou Zhifei, lamenting that life was short and fate made them meet again, and she vowed to be with him life and death.

At the same time, Ding Jiansheng's fate also experienced tremendous twists and turns. He was kidnapped to Suzhou. After some twists and turns, he learned that the kidnapper was actually Xiao Ruotong's man, and the other party demanded a huge ransom - one hundred thousand French currency. Faced with this dilemma, Gu Huizhong stepped forward and donated his precious gold bars to meet the urgent need. Hu Zhiping provided support from the outside and arranged for Zhou Zhenwu to conduct transactions. When the Japanese soldiers unexpectedly appeared, everyone thought the deal was ruined, but Zhou Zhenwu relied on wisdom and courage to successfully obtain quinine from the Japanese soldiers. It turned out that Ding Jiansheng got his quinine from this group of Japanese soldiers. On the other side, Zhou Zhifei learned through the information from Cell 8 that Ding Jiansheng had fallen into the hands of gcd. On the one hand, he made an urgent report to Kondo Masao, and on the other hand, he secretly reached a deal with Cell 8: If the other party could get rid of Ding Jiansheng, he would hand over the secrets of the seabed he mastered - the handle to control Cell 8. In this intricate contest, Zhou Zhifei works step by step, striving to find a glimmer of hope amidst the crises.

When Gu Yizhong went to pay homage to his father, he learned from Fugui that Haimo often came to visit and learned where she was. Later, he went to the book club to visit Hai Mo, and there happened to be a disturbance among members of Yiguang Yu Club. Gu Yizhong used his name as a spy to resolve the issue deftly, winning Hai Mo's gratitude. Gu Yi Center had other plans to find out the truth about Cell No. 8 from Huang Xinzhai, but Huang Xinzhai remained tight-lipped and only revealed the importance of Cell No. 8 to Zhou Zhifei. On the other side, Xiao Ruotong agreed to send quinine in exchange, but unexpectedly received a secret letter, which pointed out the real goal of Cell 8 - the person who wanted to get rid of Ding Jiansheng was Cell 8. This discovery made the situation even more confusing, and both Gu Yizhong and Xiao Ruotong fell into deep thinking.
