Dark Night and Dawn Episode 14 Recap
> Dark Night and Dawn Recap
Xiao Yun was very cautious; the Public Security officers tracking her found nothing amiss. Xu Wei found the watch shop where Liu Guihang was lurking in disguise and told Liu Guihang not to rescue Bo Lao. How could Liu Guihang listen to him? The result was that he was knocked out by Xu Wei and tied up. Another subordinate was also knocked out and tied up, unconscious. Lin Shaobai told Zheng Lanting that he would be transferred to Beiping tomorrow.
This was another tactic to trick Zheng Lanting into revealing his true identity. Lu Zhengyang decided to use a freight train to transfer Zheng Lanting. If it turned out later that he was truly innocent, he would have to tell Zheng Lanting the truth and ask for his understanding. The next day, when it was time to depart, Zheng Lanting looked listless. After examining him, Jin Yan said it was acute anxiety.
Lin Shaobai suggested delaying the transfer by two days, but Lu Zhengyang did not agree. Yang Hui brought people to bury explosives under the tracks in advance. When the time came, no one on the train would be spared, and they could take whatever they wanted from the freight train. On the train, Lu Zhengyang chatted with Zheng Lanting, but Zheng Lanting did not say much. Xu Wei rushed to the woods, trying to stop Yang Hui's operation.
He directly stated that Liu Guihang was using Yang Hui as a pawn. Yang Hui did not believe him and ordered his men to restrain Xu Wei. Just as the train was about to arrive, Xu Wei broke free from the restraints and prevented Yang Hui from pressing the detonator. The train passed safely over the tracks where the explosives were buried.
Xiao Yun waited in agony, secretly deciding that if Bo Lao were exposed, she would take poison and accompany him to the netherworld. Xu Wei called, and she finally felt relieved. She also told Xu Wei that Yang Hui was the most important pawn. By then, the Public Security would mistake Yang Hui for Bo Lao, and Zheng Lanting would continue to lie low.
As for Xu Wei's mission, it was to ensure that Yang Hui died at the right moment. When transferring Zheng Lanting, the spies made no move at all. Lu Zhengyang ordered the return. Zheng Lanting discovered that the train had stopped and questioned why they were not going to Beiping, expressing strong dissatisfaction. Lu Zhengyang went forward to explain and appease him. Afterwards, everyone reviewed the situation. There was still no conclusion on whether Zheng Lanting was Bo Lao.
Lu Zhengyang said they would reach a conclusion after catching Yang Hui. The Reconnaissance Section intercepted a telegram and learned that the spies would assassinate industry figures tonight. Deputy Director Yang gave instructions that the industry meeting would proceed as usual, but the location would change. Lu Zhengyang and the others could go ahead and act freely.
Deputy Director Yang could see that this was another trap, so he had Captain Zhang cooperate with Lu Zhengyang's operation to turn the tables and capture all the lying-in-wait spies. Lin Shaobai caught the leader of this group of spies, Old Liu (Liu Guihang), and used him to lure out Yang Hui. However, Yang Hui was very cautious. He sent another person ashore. After discovering the deception, he pulled the nearest person, Cen Xiaoman, over as a hostage.
Deputy Director Yang exchanged himself for Cen Xiaoman. Originally, he had persuaded Yang Hui to abandon the dark side and come to the light, but Xu Wei shot secretly, causing Yang Hui to resort to desperate measures. Before he could shoot, Lin Shaobai had already killed Yang Hui one step ahead. Afterwards, they found a torn photo on the boat, as well as other materials, pointing to Yang Hui as Bo Lao.
Lu Zhengyang felt that every clue found so far was too perfectly fitting, making it suspicious. Zheng Lanting requested the Public Security to issue him a certificate stating he was a good citizen. Lu Zhengyang agreed, and Xiao Yun came to pick Zheng Lanting up to go home. Zheng Lanting discovered that several paintings were missing from his room. He sternly emphasized to Xiao Yun again that nothing in that room could be moved without his permission.
Later, Bo Lao and Xu Wei came and released Liu Guihang. Although they didn't kill him, even Xu Wei, who was of a lower rank than him, could treat him with contempt, showing how little Bo Lao regarded Liu Guihang.
