> Resúmenes de Eight Hundred
Huo Kaiming took the kidnapped Gao Songge to a desolate area on the outskirts of the city, maintaining a chillingly calm demeanor as he told her that her time had not yet come. Meanwhile, Chen Hui set a plan in motion to deal with Yang Baichun. He called Yang, pretending to be bored while his parents were away and expressing curiosity about a place Yang had mentioned before.
Despite Yang Baichun’s skepticism about driving two separate cars, Chen Hui insisted on the arrangement to avoid being spotted by his parents. They agreed to meet at Zhangtou Village later that evening, and Chen Hui prepared for the encounter by purchasing a taser. While the men coordinated their meeting, Yang Baichun's wife, Luo Xiaoyun, was overcome with grief and anger. She went to Ding Yue’s home to vent her frustrations, convinced her husband was out seeing prostitutes again.
Although Ding Yue tried to pacify her, the situation escalated when Luo Xiaoyun revealed a medical slip she had found while doing laundry. The slip was for medication used to treat gonorrhea, confirming her husband's infidelity. When Ding Yue reluctantly admitted she had overheard Yang Baichun mentioning a trip to Zhangtou Village, Luo Xiaoyun immediately called the police to report him, hoping he would finally face the consequences and lose his position at the guesthouse.
Realizing the police were headed to Zhangtou Village, a worried Ding Yue called Chen Hui to warn him. Chen Hui received the news while standing over the unconscious body of Yang Baichun. Driven by a desperate need to save Gao Songge, Chen Hui transported the unconscious man to the remote location where Huo Kaiming was waiting. He called out to Huo Kaiming, declaring that he had delivered Yang Baichun as requested. However, the exchange was a trap.
As Chen Hui searched for Gao Songge, Huo Kaiming ambushed him from behind and tied him up alongside the others. When Yang Baichun regained consciousness, he found himself bound and face-to-face with a vengeful Huo Kaiming. He begged for his life, claiming the past was a misunderstanding. Huo Kaiming, however, was beyond reason, accusing Yang Baichun of pushing him into a living hell.
In a fit of psychotic rage, Huo Kaiming used potassium permanganate to ignite a fierce purple chemical fire and used it to burn Yang Baichun. After the horrific act, Huo Kaiming turned his menacing gaze toward Chen Hui, vowing that they would all go to hell together. Later that night, Chen Hui returned to his parents' home, soaked from the rain and trying to maintain a facade of normalcy.
He told his mother that he had returned to Fengyang because his father mentioned that Huang Liang had been hospitalized. He even brought along some mutton soup for the family. When Chen Hongbing arrived home and noticed that Chen Hui’s car windows were smashed, Chen Hui claimed he had no idea who did it, suggesting it happened while he was at an internet cafe.
During dinner, Chen Hui carefully asked his father if it was true that Huo Kaiming had returned, acting as though he were hearing the news for the first time. The rare moment of family harmony moved Ding Yue to tears. The next morning, the police grew concerned when Luo Xiaoyun reported that Yang Baichun had not returned home.
Chen Hongbing noted that Yang Baichun took his job very seriously and would never miss work without a grave reason, leading him to suspect foul play. He visited Huang Liang in the hospital to ask if there was a specific grudge between Yang Baichun and Huo Kaiming, but Huang Liang claimed to know nothing. The investigation took a turn when Yang Baichun was found alive but in a state of mental collapse by villagers in Liugou Village.
Chen Hongbing rushed to the scene and found the man smelling strongly of potassium permanganate. He also noticed distinct taser burn marks on Yang Baichun’s neck. Following the trail, the police discovered Yang Baichun’s burnt-out car at an abandoned coking plant near the village. Although the rain had washed away many footprints, they found a large patch of blood suggesting a violent struggle.
As the data from Yang Baichun’s phone was recovered, the police determined that the device was shut down around 8:30 PM on the night of the incident. Kang Limin informed Chen Hongbing that the very last call Yang Baichun received was from Chen Hui. Furthermore, Chen Hui had recently approached Kang Limin about taking Gao Songge to another city to find a kidney donor, which added to the suspicion.
Realizing his son was deeply involved, a grim Chen Hongbing told his colleagues to proceed according to protocol while he recused himself. He later confronted Ding Yue, pointing out the legal implications of Chen Hui being the last person to contact the victim.
