The Seven Relics of ill Omen Episode 3 Recap
> The Seven Relics of ill Omen Recap
Luo Ren asked Mu Dai out for a talk, and Mu Dai chose a café that had surveillance all around and a large flow of people. Luo Ren admired Mu Dai—she was skilled in martial arts and had a strong sense of judgment. Mu Dai was curious about Luo Ren’s identity, and Luo Ren no longer hid it. He directly showed her the pendant on his necklace, which contained a photo—his uncle Luo Wenmiao’s family portrait.
Due to work reasons, Luo Wenmiao moved with his daughter Luo Paiting to Xiaoshanghe after his wife passed away. Two years ago, Luo Wenmiao suddenly lost contact and took a trip to Luomahu. After returning, one night, Luo Wenmiao, with red eyes, begged Luo Ren to lock him up—he didn’t want to kill anyone. But when Luo Ren pressed further, Luo Wenmiao acted as if he had never said those words.
Later, one day, Luo Ren saw Luo Wenmiao fiddling with fishing line in the study. A few days after that, Luo Wenmiao disappeared over the wall. Luo Ren ran after him and discovered a house in the alley was on fire, with people fighting inside. Hearing this, Mu Dai recalled what Li Tan had said: that person had silver hair but incredible strength.
Luo Ren rushed in and saw Li Tan, mistook him for the murderer, knocked him out, and then chased after Luo Wenmiao. Luo Wenmiao’s speed and strength made Luo Ren doubt that he was still his uncle. Back home, Luo Ren saw the blood on Luo Wenmiao’s hands. After tying him up, he returned to find Li Tan, but Li Tan was too seriously injured to answer any questions.
After sending Li Tan to the hospital, Luo Ren rushed home, only to find that Luo Wenmiao was dead and Luo Paiting had gone mad. Later, Luo Ren began investigating the entire matter, learning about the Luomahu case, and discovering Huo Zihong’s involvement. Now, the key to the whole incident was Huo Zihong. From Huo Zihong’s reaction, Luo Ren judged that she must know who the real killer was.
Mu Dai told Luo Ren that the second case Huo Zihong filed with Wan Fenghuo involved Zhang Guanghua. Including the Darrentel case, there were three cases in total. Luo Ren firmly believed there must be a hidden thread connecting them all and invited Mu Dai to his home to sort through the details. Zhang Guanghua lived next door to Li Yaqing’s home at Luomahu. His belongings were found in Datong.
Liu Shuhai fell into the water in Datong and died in Jiquan, while Luo Wenmiao had once been on a business trip to Jiquan and stayed at Cen Chunjiao’s small inn. When Liu Shuhai died, a piece of skin was missing from his back—the same with Luo Wenmiao. Luo Ren realized the entire incident seemed like a relay race: after Liu Shuhai died, Luo Wenmiao took the baton, and when Luo Wenmiao died, Luo Paiting happened to be nearby.
Cao Yanhua wanted to take Mu Dai as his master, but she told him to drop the idea early. Thirteen-Thousand said his dream was to be kept by a gentle and lovely rich woman. Mu Dai decided to start her investigation with Huo Zihong, so she deliberately mentioned Li Tan in front of her and said Luo Ren was also a victim. She advised Huo Zihong not to hide the truth if she knew who the killer was.
Upon hearing this, Huo Zihong immediately exploded in anger and stormed off. Luo Ren arranged to meet Li Tan but ended up getting tied up. Li Tan told Mu Dai that he had found the killer. Mu Dai and Huo Zihong rushed to Luo Ren’s home. Huo Zihong admitted that she was Li Yaqing. It turned out this was a setup planned by Luo Ren and Li Tan because Luo Paiting’s condition had worsened.
Mu Dai guessed that they were being controlled by supernatural forces, which made Luo Ren burst into laughter. Huo Zihong apologized to Li Tan for what had happened between her and Zhang Guanghua in the past. Li Tan left with a bitter smile and tossed away the thermos cup he had been holding.
