Killer And Healer Episode 36 Recap
> Killer And Healer Recap
Jiang Yuelou confronted Commissioner Bai, who expressed surprise that Jiang Yuelou was alive and claimed he had been worried since their last contact. Jiang Yuelou questioned this, asking if Bai's supposed worry led him to approach Zhan Junbai for information. Commissioner Bai denied this, claiming he only feigned cooperation with Zhan Junbai after learning of his treachery, all for the sake of their shared plan.
Jiang Yuelou lamented that Bai, whom he considered his most trusted family member, had been on guard with a gun since his arrival. Bai momentarily lowered his weapon but quickly raised it again when Jiang Yuelou reached into his pocket, ordering him not to move. Jiang Yuelou revealed he was only taking out an old photograph, prompting Bai to reminisce.
He recalled commissioning the photo for Jiang Yuelou's first birthday at their home and other "firsts"—buying him his first pen, taking him for his first Western meal, and seeing him in his first police uniform. Bai recounted how he and his childless wife, Siqi, felt the true happiness of parenthood after Jiang Yuelou came to live with them.
He affirmed that Jiang Yuelou was more than a subordinate; he was like a son, and every word he had spoken to him over the past eight years had been heartfelt. Jiang Yuelou questioned why, if Bai truly saw him as a son, he would side with Zhan Junbai, a choice that put Jiang Yuelou in mortal danger. Bai reiterated that he had no other choice and would never intentionally hurt him.
He urged Jiang Yuelou to flee Jing City, as Zhan's uncle and nephew now controlled all armed forces. Jiang Yuelou refused, declaring his intention to fight them to the end, asserting that his purpose was more important than just staying alive. Moved, Bai commended him, stating that Jing City and its people needed him. He then asked Jiang Yuelou to retrieve a picture frame from his study.
As Jiang Yuelou turned to go, Bai apologized to him and the people of Jing City before taking his own life. Later, Chen Yuzhi consoled a grieving Jiang Yuelou, assuring him that Commissioner Bai had considered him family until the very end. Jiang Yuelou learned from a newspaper that Zhan Junbai was marrying on Chinese New Year's Eve, suspecting the event was a cover for the planned uprising. Chen Yuzhi revealed that the bride was Chu Ran.
Shocked, Jiang Yuelou demanded they cancel the plan, but Chen Yuzhi explained it was too late. Chu Ran herself had proposed the marriage after they believed Jiang Yuelou was dead, realizing it was their only way to get close to Zhan Junbai. They knew Zhan was using the marriage for his own ends, but his high-profile wedding, attended by dignitaries, provided the perfect opportunity to expose him. Jin Dacheng arrived, announcing his decision to cooperate with Jiang Yuelou.
He explained that he was now convinced of Commissioner Bai's betrayal after overhearing a phone call in which Zhan Junbai warned Bai to control his fiancée, lest she expose their rebellion. When Jin Dacheng mentioned Bai's absence from the police bureau, Jiang Yuelou informed a shocked Jin that the commissioner had committed suicide. Meanwhile, at the Nan Chao Hotel, Zhan Junbai oversaw wedding preparations with Chu Ran.
He asked if the traditional wedding attire he sent was suitable, but she assured him it was fine. They confirmed the ceremony would be in the lobby, followed by a banquet upstairs. Later, outside, Zhan offered Chu Ran a coffee, calling it their "last date before the wedding." Zhan Junbai then met with his uncle, Zhan Tianqing, to discuss the final details of their coup.
Zhan Tianqing admitted he had kept his wife, Zhao Moqing, in the dark, calling her shortsighted. Zhan Junbai insisted she be briefed, as she had a key role to play. Zhan Tianqing warned his nephew that "one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers," implying a future power struggle. Regarding Chu Ran's fate, Zhan Tianqing stated it depended on whether she could "read the situation."
Zhan Junbai asserted that no one, except his uncle, could stand in his way and reminded him to tell his aunt that she was a star in the next day's "drama." At the safe house, Jin Dacheng arrived, complaining about the location. He provocatively suggested an improper relationship between Jiang Yuelou and Chu Ran, which Chen Yuzhi corrected by stating he and Jiang Yuelou were the current residents.
Soon after, Chu Ran arrived with a detailed internal map of the Nan Chao Hotel, outlining the layout of the lobby and banquet hall. The group determined that the best time to act would be during the ceremony. Jiang Yuelou requested two wedding invitations to allow him and Chen Yuzhi to pose as guests. Recalling Zhan Junbai's evasiveness when her mother asked about Zhan Tianqing, Chu Ran suspected he would not attend the wedding.
Jiang Yuelou agreed and revised the plan: Jin Dacheng would not secure the hotel's periphery but would instead monitor Zhan Tianqing, who would likely be bringing troops into the city. Jiang Yuelou advised Jin to bluff by using Commissioner Bai's authority, as the conspirators were likely unaware of his death, but also warned him to be careful of other spies in the police force. With the plan set, the group shared a moment of resolve, looking forward to celebrating after their success.
