Under Luo Xingming's hint, Gu Pan shot at him directly, and the two deliberately damaged the monitoring equipment during the fight. Seeing that Gu Pan gradually calmed down, Luo Xingming analyzed the cause of Tan Zhongwen's death, guessing that the person who killed him was not Pu Cong, but most likely Mr. Jin, so he pointed the clues to Yang Qian, thinking that Gu Pan should ask Yang Qian for clarification, and Gu Pan agreed to meet Yang Qian modest.
Official Zhang Huagui was reinstated, and at the same time he heard the news of Tan Zhongwen's death, and told Pu Cong to find out the real culprit as soon as possible, so they both knew each other. In fact, Pu Cong came to Zhang Huagui for two reasons. First, to express his joy of celebration, and second, to report an important matter to him.
Then Gu Pan asked Yang Qian to meet in the church, and Yang Qian told Gu Pan about Tan Zhongwen's plan. It turned out that Yang Qian had asked Yang Qian for help long before, and asked him to sneak into the principal's office while Pu Cong was interrogating him, and accurately obtain the hiding location of the real black box. Yang Qian acted according to plan.
Later, when Tan Zhongwen fled, he stole the black box and told Yang Qian that if something happened, he would take a fixed train to Changsha to meet him. It is only possible that Tan Zhongwen failed to elope with Gu Pan as he wished. Gu Pan asked Pu Cong how he reacted to this incident. Yang Qian said that Pu Cong became worried and revealed that Tian Qiaojie had returned to Qingshan Military Academy.
Hearing this news, Gu Pan was shocked, and immediately informed Luo Xingming about it. Gu Pan's best friend used to be Tian Qiaojie, but now the two have completely turned against each other, and their best friend has become an enemy. Luo Xingjian feels the same about this kind of experience, but Gu Pan is more worried about Xia En's situation. On the other hand, Xia En stayed alone in the hotel, the shop owner kindly made Xia En a bowl of hot noodles, which made her burst into tears when she thought of her mother.
Since the black box was lost, Pu Cong has been restless all day long. The death of his adopted son Tan Zhongwen and the departure of his daughter Xia En have completely turned him into a loner. Long Zhijie ignored Gu Pan and gave her a task, asking her to enter the Wanguo Hotel on time at 3:15 and escort an American wearing a black gown. Just as Gu Pan was sitting in the coffee shop opposite the hotel waiting, he heard a gunshot suddenly, and the American was shot dead. The detective led people to rush to investigate.
After Tian Qiaojie returned, she became Huang Sumei and Pu Cong's right-hand man in the confrontation. Yang Qian still didn't know Tian Qiaojie's real identity, so that he was tricked out of a lot of information, but when Tian Qiaojie asked about the relationship between Yang Qian and Gu Pan, Yang Qian denied it, and Tian Qiaojie was still dubious.
The task originally assigned to Luo Xingming was temporarily cancelled. Walking on the street, Luo Xingming noticed someone following him, so he tried a little trick to throw him off. Gu Pan passed the news to Luo Xingming through the children, and asked him to come to the Akita Inn in the Japanese Concession soon to share with him the process of the mission he carried out today.
Long Zhijie let Gu Pan enter the Wanguo Hotel at 3:15, but the American went downstairs by himself at 3:15 and was shot dead soon after. Gu Pan stayed in the hotel as a guest, and heard that the inspector found out that the American was James, the American representative of the Ocean Trading Company. Before he died, he went to the deputy editor's office of a newspaper to make a phone call, and the other party was named Huang Gengxian.
Luo Xingming guessed that these people might be members of the hive organization, which means that some people are hunting and killing members of the hive lurking in all walks of life. He and Gu Pan are really puzzled. That night, Gu Pan and Luo Xingming stared at a group of people sneaking into the house. With three shots fired, the two rushed to catch the leader. Gu Pan was in charge of controlling this person, Luo Xingming walked into the room to check, realized something was wrong, went out and found that the person who hijacked Gu Pan was actually Wan Jiu.
