Resumen del episodio 7 de Eight Hundred
> Resúmenes de Eight Hundred
Months ago, Huo Kaiming arrived in Yucuan searching for Jiao Yuqin. He first visited the home of a woman with that name, only to find she was a local living with her husband. He soon realized a scammer had stolen her identity to operate as a "Death Benefit Bride"—a woman who marries lonely men only to collect insurance or compensation when they "accidentally" die in illegal coal pits.
Eventually, Huo tracked down the scammer as she left a hair salon and entered his taxi. During the drive toward the Liugou pits, she callously boasted about her scams, laughing that men were so easily blinded by lust they would "eat filth and think it's delicious." Enraged by her cold-bloodedness, Huo detoured to the outskirts. Despite her attempts to flee and her screams for help, Huo caught her and killed her in a fit of rage.
In the present, Chen Hui revealed to a cornered Huo Kaiming that he had already meticulously framed him. Between the fingerprints left on a phone and the illegal goods planted at Huo's house, the evidence against him was overwhelming. Even with Gao Songge held as a hostage in the car, Huo had no choice but to follow Chen Hui’s instructions when they reached a police checkpoint. During the inspection, an officer named Limin discovered blood on the back seat.
As Huo panicked, Chen Hui stepped in and calmly explained that the blood belonged to Songge from a recent medical emergency involving her dialysis fistula, noting that his father, Chen Hongbing, could testify to the incident. The police let them go, but the encounter left Chen Hongbing deeply suspicious.
Later, Gao Songge realized that the cough syrup used in their illegal trade—which Huo was now obsessed with tracking—might be linked to sixteen empty bottles she had once given to Ma Heping. She had acted out of pity because Ma Heping was disabled and struggling to raise his son, Ma Kai, alone. Now, she feared those bottles had been refilled and used by the woman Huo was hunting.
Worried that his father was closing in on the truth, Chen Hui hurried home to gauge how much the police had uncovered. At the Chen household, the family was looking after Ma Kai. Chen Hongbing noticed a commemorative coin the boy was playing with and realized it was the match to a coin found on a murder victim. Ma Kai innocently explained that his father had received it from his "other mom," a woman with curly hair and red lipstick.
Armed with this lead, Hongbing met with Captain Liu Na to interrogate Ma Heping. However, Ma Heping remained stubbornly silent, refusing to betray the woman he was protecting even when told it could reduce his own sentence. The pressure mounted that night when Huo Kaiming cornered Chen Hui again, threatening to kill both him and Songge if the woman wasn't delivered to him within twenty-four hours.
The next morning, Chen Hongbing and his team conducted a thorough search of Ma Heping’s home. Amidst the trash, they found a lottery ticket printed at 3:10 AM. This specific timestamp allowed the police to trace the ticket to a specific address, finally identifying the woman’s location. At the same time, Chen Hui decided to use Ma Kai to find the woman first.
He took the boy out and intentionally mentioned that the Civil Affairs Bureau would be taking him to a welfare home the next day. Terrified of being sent to an orphanage, Ma Kai insisted he wasn't an orphan and remembered a drink shop across from his mother’s house. He led Chen Hui and Songge to the location, but they arrived just as the police pulled up.
Chen Hui watched in frustration from a distance as the officers arrested the woman and drove away. When Chen Hui and Songge returned home, they discovered that his ledger—the notebook detailing his illegal transactions—had vanished. The loss triggered a violent breakdown in Chen Hui; he began smashing furniture and berating himself as a useless failure who couldn't protect anyone.
Realizing that Huo Kaiming’s deadline was almost up and their luck had run out, Chen Hui asked Songge to go to a local photo studio to take wedding photos in traditional costumes to capture a final memory. Meanwhile, a vengeful Huo Kaiming prepared a stash of gasoline, ready for a final, lethal confrontation.
