Killer And Healer Episode 31 Recap
> Killer And Healer Recap
Chen Yuzhi slowly regained consciousness, frightening Chu Ran, who had been anxiously watching over him. She expressed immense relief, believing he had been on the verge of death. Chen Yuzhi felt a sense of déjà vu, wondering why he was back in the same situation. Chu Ran explained that the doctor confirmed he was incredibly lucky, as the bullet had merely grazed his heart, missing it by a hair's breadth. Chen Yuzhi immediately realized the truth.
He recalled Jiang Yuelou's previous explanation of how Commissioner Bai had once saved an undercover police officer by making it appear as though the officer had been shot close to the heart, while in reality, the bullet deliberately avoided it to clear suspicion. Chen Yuzhi concluded that Jiang Yuelou’s shot was a calculated act to save him, mirroring Commissioner Bai’s strategy.
He reasoned that if Jiang Yuelou truly intended to kill him from such close range, he would not have missed. Both Chen Yuzhi and Chu Ran understood that Jiang Yuelou had not genuinely joined Jinma Hall, and even his stay at the mental hospital had been part of a larger plan.
Chu Ran recalled how Jiang Yuelou's hostility had always been most pronounced when Sun Heying or others were present, and she wondered why their private meetings were always interrupted when she tried to give him medicine, suggesting someone might have been watching them. Though Chen Yuzhi still had many questions, he knew only Jiang Yuelou could answer them.
Chen Yuzhi then urgently requested a secret meeting with Jiang Yuelou and asked Chu Ran to place a unique secret code—a triangle inside a circle—in a newspaper advertisement. Chu Ran promised to do so, choosing the meeting location herself. Meanwhile, Jiang Yuelou awoke to find himself under surveillance. To create a diversion, he encouraged some children to pester the man watching him for food, allowing him to slip away.
He immediately called Commissioner Bai, but Mrs. Bai answered, informing him that Commissioner Bai was out with Jin Dacheng. As Jiang Yuelou left the phone booth, he overheard people discussing the recent mysterious deaths of senior officials. He then bought a newspaper and saw the secret code. Recognizing the symbol that only he and Chen Yuzhi knew, he realized Chen Yuzhi was still alive. Elsewhere, Chu Min presented a financial report to Zhan Junbai, who praised his progress.
Zhan Junbai then gave Chu Min half a day off to visit Chu Ran. When Chu Min asked about Yutangchun, Zhan claimed he was home dealing with family matters. Zhan then instructed Qiu Ming to release Fu Cheng and return him to his room. Following the newspaper's coded message, Jiang Yuelou found Chu Ran. She confirmed that Chen Yuzhi was alive but seriously injured.
Jiang Yuelou expressed deep remorse for hurting him, but Chu Ran reassured him that Chen Yuzhi understood his intentions and had immediately deduced the truth upon waking. Jiang Yuelou confessed that he had confirmed Zhan Junbai was the true Third Uncle and asked Chu Ran to contact Commissioner Bai on his behalf, as he needed the Commissioner’s help.
Chu Ran was shocked by the revelation but understood the difficult position Jiang Yuelou was in, having been forced to take such extreme measures to prove his loyalty to Zhan Junbai. She told Jiang Yuelou to personally explain everything to Chen Yuzhi once his plan succeeded. Later, Chu Min arrived at Chu Ran’s doorstep. Knowing he worked for Zhan Junbai, Chu Ran feigned absence.
Chu Min was about to leave when he encountered Zhong Yiren, who insisted on bringing him back up. When Chu Ran finally opened the door, she claimed she had been asleep. Suspecting she was hiding something, Zhong Yiren began searching the room. To distract them, Chu Ran offered to treat them to dinner, and the trio left. Meanwhile, Jiang Yuelou went to the hospital, leaving a meal and a fruit basket outside Chen Yuzhi’s ward.
A nurse brought the items to Chen Yuzhi, who discovered a hidden note inside. Chen Yuzhi rushed out to look for Jiang Yuelou, but Jiang Yuelou, hiding nearby, remained out of sight. At his mansion, Zhan Junbai confronted Yutangchun, stating he knew Yutangchun had attempted to assassinate Second Uncle because he was aware of his impending death.
Zhan declared that a "caged bird" must know its place and cruelly threatened to desecrate the burial site of Yutangchun’s parents, leaving him visibly shaken. Later, Sun Heying questioned Qiu Ming about Zhan Junbai's decision to keep Yutangchun alive, speculating it was a form of revenge for betrayed trust. Yutangchun called Zhan Junbai a beast, to which Zhan coldly replied that the loser has no right to speak.
Sun Heying reported to Zhan Junbai that Mrs. Bai had set a trap for Commissioner Bai at his home. Zhan ordered a car to the Bai mansion, believing it was the safest place for an interrogation. Shortly after, Jin Dacheng escorted Commissioner Bai home. Mrs. Bai invited Jin Dacheng to stay for the dinner she had prepared, which included a chicken soup laced with a drug. She tried to dissuade Jin Dacheng from staying, but Commissioner Bai insisted.
Mrs. Bai grew anxious as Jin Dacheng, oblivious to the plot, heartily consumed multiple bowls of the drugged soup. Later, Jinma Hall’s men located Jiang Yuelou drinking with a woman. They informed him that the Third Uncle wished to see him, to which Jiang Yuelou responded that it was finally time to get some work done.
