Xiao Xifeng picked up the delivery box on the ground and took out the items inside one by one: an unknown liquid, a mask, and a white coat. He then sat down at the table, recorded the information of the first three cases in his notebook, and wrote down Lin Ruilin's name at the end. Immediately afterwards, he tore up what he had just written, took out a photo, and reminisced about the good times he had with Tu Liansheng a long time ago. He had given Tu Liansheng a new hat and the two had taken this photo together. Xiao Xifeng then burned the photo and the torn paper and threw them both in the trash can.

Luo Fei recalled the recent clues and linked them to the name Tu Liansheng, whom he had seen during his visit to Xiao Xifeng. Luo Fei couldn't figure out why the two had a connection, and what their relationship was. Meanwhile, Lu Fengping was not idle either. He called Professor Ling to inquire about Xiao Xifeng's recent situation and learned that Xiao had been depressed for a while because a close friend had passed away. That friend was Tu Liansheng. To commemorate him, Xiao Xifeng had even published a novel online! Lu Fengping immediately passed on the news to Luo Fei, and everything suddenly made sense.

Lu Fengping found Luo Fei and believed that Tu Liansheng's death was related to the incident where he stopped a car to save a dog, and that Xiao Xifeng's motive for murder was to avenge Tu Liansheng. After speaking, Lu Fengping asked Luo Fei for the clues of the case from back then. However, Luo Fei said that it was just speculation and the case was still unsolved. Luo Fei also questioned how Lu Fengping knew he had the clues, but Lu Fengping did not give a straightforward answer. The two argued endlessly, and all of this was overheard by Liang Yin passing by downstairs. Suddenly, Luo Fei received a call from Xiao Qiao, saying that Xiao Xifeng had left the house. Luo Fei instructed Xiao Qiao to keep an eye on him and then left himself, leaving Lu Fengping alone on the spot.

As soon as Xiao Xifeng stepped out, he saw a group of children fighting, which reminded him of the scene where he stood up for Tu Liansheng when he was bullied as a child. He turned and noticed Xiao Qiao, who was tailing him, and approached her with a smile. Luo Fei and his group finally arrived, but by the time they got there, Xiao Qiao had already fainted. After making arrangements for her, they entered Xiao Xifeng's house to look for clues. Luo Fei noticed the burnt pieces of paper in the trash can and immediately realized something. They searched through Xiao Xifeng's notebook and found the torn one. Using a flashlight, they examined the imprint and learned that Xiao Xifeng's target was Lin Ruilin!

Xiao Liu immediately went to the hospital and called Wang Jing, who was on duty there. Unfortunately, Wang Jing's phone ran out of battery and the message couldn't be delivered. At this time, Xiao Xifeng had already disguised himself as a doctor and entered Lin Ruilin's ward. Finally, Wang Jing answered the phone and rushed to the ward, stopping Xiao Xifeng. Xiao Xifeng immediately ran outside and ran into Xiao Liu, who had just arrived at the hospital, at the elevator. Finally, Xiao Xifeng was arrested.

Luo Fei interrogated Xiao Xifeng and applied for permission for Lu Fengping to participate in the interrogation. Xiao Xifeng admitted directly that he was going to kill Lin Ruilin. Then Luo Fei asked where Xiao Xifeng was on the afternoon of Zhao Lili's death. Xiao Xifeng said he did buy a boat ticket, but he didn't board the boat. Instead, he went to Zhao Lili's house and then took a car to Lingbei before taking a boat back. He only dressed up as a courier to avoid surveillance and claimed that he found the hallucinogen by chance. When asked about Yao Shuhan and Li Xiaogang, Xiao Xifeng admitted that he had spent several months investigating them. Both victims heard Xiao Xifeng's voice, so it was easy to catch their desire. Perhaps he used such a complex method to demonstrate his professional abilities.

Then Luo Fei asked about his relationship with Tu Liansheng. Xiao Xifeng said that few people were willing to listen to Tu Liansheng's story, and he fell into reminiscence. During their high school years, Tu Liansheng was bullied by classmates because of the scars on his face. Xiao Xifeng saw the injustice and helped Tu Liansheng. Tu Liansheng remembered this and voluntarily brought meals to Xiao Xifeng. They became good friends and helped each other. However, after the incident of blocking the car to save the dog, Tu Liansheng was completely ruined. According to Xiao Xifeng's recollection, when the traffic police left, Lin Ruilin also left. Not only did he not pay Tu Liansheng's fare, but he also left Tu Liansheng alone and asked Tu Liansheng to apologize by kneeling down to appease his girlfriend, Zhao Lili. Tu Liansheng explained that he was just a driver, but he was not understood. In the end, Tu Liansheng knelt down and apologized, which caused him great shame. This incident completely shattered Tu Liansheng's self-esteem and destroyed his values. Xiao Xifeng tried to help Tu Liansheng, but it was not very effective. Tu Liansheng later asked for compensation from Lin Ruilin and Li Xiaogang, but he received more humiliation instead. Finally, Tu Liansheng couldn't bear the pressure and chose to commit suicide. Xiao Xifeng said that his first thought was to avenge Tu Liansheng and expressed regret that Lin Ruilin did not die.
