Dark Night and Dawn Episode 22 Recap
> Dark Night and Dawn Recap
Private detective Lu Tingzhen did not deny buying a lot of photo paper. He had put the remaining two boxes on credit at the Yao Hua Photo Studio for Master Qi. Lu Zhengyang and Huzhi immediately rushed to Yao Hua Photo Studio. At that time, Master Qi was busy developing photos, so Lu Zhengyang asked the photo studio apprentice A Xing some questions and looked at the account book. At first, Master Qi seemed to be hiding something.
Lu Zhengyang solemnly pointed out that the people photographed with this photo paper had all disappeared. Master Qi was stunned for a moment. He originally thought losing photo paper was a small matter, but he didn't expect it to be related to spies. Master Qi was currently the biggest suspect. Lu Zhengyang and Huzhi took him back to the Public Security Bureau to cooperate with the investigation. Xu Wei hid behind them and took photos of this scene.
The Osprey planned to use the photos to tell a false story targeting Lu Zhengyang. Xu Wei used torture on Boss Qian, causing his death to achieve the purpose of killing one to warn a hundred. He voluntarily wrote down the routes and ship numbers of each ship. If anyone refused to write, Old Qian was a typical example of their fate. Jin Maochang was the first to write.
Immediately after, Gao Huaipu was so scared that his asthma flared up. The others pressed his philtrum, and Jin Maochang put medicine in his mouth before he slowly recovered. Master Qi was taken to the Public Security Bureau and confessed that the photos had been stolen. The reason he didn't dare to say anything was that he was afraid the young boss would fire him because of it. The photo paper was lost on the night it rained.
After he sent A Xing home and was about to close up and go home himself, a customer unexpectedly came and asked Master Qi to take many photos for him. Lu Zhengyang showed Master Qi the photos for him to identify the person. Master Qi pointed out that the person was Xu Wei. Lu Zhengyang was puzzled why the spy would go to such lengths to steal them.
Before he could figure it out, the families of those entrepreneurs came to the entrance of the Public Security Bureau to demand their release, and some even knelt down. Jin Yan comforted everyone to get up first, but the families were still very emotional. Lin Shaobai noticed that one person among them didn't seem to be causing trouble but rather watching the excitement. He asked a comrade next to him and learned that the person was Gao Huaipu's son.
Lu Zhengyang worried that Lin Shaobai would act on his own and went to the rooftop with Huzhi. He found Lin Shaobai enthusiastically telling stories to the pigeons and dismissed his worries. As soon as they left, Lin Shaobai stopped acting. He hadn't given up on investigating the case at all.
After returning home, Lin Shaobai accidentally learned that Old Gao from Xingfu Lane was Gao Huaipu's son, and he had been disowned and kicked out of the family years ago. Lin Shaobai asked his second mother for help to arrange another mahjong game with Old Gao tomorrow. The photo studio apprentice A Xing went to work the next day and found his master hanging. He immediately cried and screamed as he took Master Qi down.
Forensic doctor Jin Yan came to examine the body and confirmed that the primary crime scene was in the darkroom where photos were developed and that Master Qi was murdered. However, the surrounding neighbors insisted that the Public Security Bureau taking him in for questioning led to Master Qi's death. News articles and photos quickly appeared in the newspaper.
When Lin Shaobai saw them, he immediately called the Social Affairs Department to stop Lu Zhengyang before he went to Deputy Director Yang to request disciplinary action against himself, but it was unsuccessful. Deputy Yang told Lu Zhengyang to continue doing things according to his own ideas, and Deputy Yang would handle the external pressure. The Osprey didn't care if Lu Zhengyang was disciplined; his target was all of Shanghai.
While playing mahjong, Old Gao revealed that Gao Huaipu had severe asthma and needed to take a special American-made medicine, isoproterenol tablets. Lin Shaobai asked Jin Yan for a general understanding of this medicine. Zheng Lanting didn't come, and Jiang Yang's assassination plan failed. He sent his brothers away and went to the studio alone with explosives tied to him to find Zheng Lanting. Zombie Sparrow Xiao Yun calmly and gently tried to appease him and distract Jiang Yang.
Li Xu secretly locked the door of the studio. Jiang Yang was very suspicious and initially refused to drink the cup of tea.
