Li Zan and the others packed up their things and were preparing to leave. José came to see them off, but unexpectedly pulled out a knife and stabbed Li Zan. Song Ran was shocked, asking what José was doing. José looked pained and explained that he didn’t want to do this, but they had taken Shali, and with Benjamin and the others not around, he had no choice. Li Zan reassured Song Ran, telling her not to worry.

The stab wound wasn’t deep, just a superficial injury, not as serious as the one he had gotten before. Li Zan asked how many people they had. José replied that there was only one person. Song Ran said that if it was only one person, she could rescue him and suggested going to find Benjamin and the others for help. Li Zan told her not to panic. They would split up into two groups, and everything would be fine.

José returned and said that the task was done, but Li Zan was too heavy, and he couldn’t bring him inside. He asked someone to come and check. Abu brought Shali over and saw that Li Zan was indeed injured and lying on the ground. The walkie-talkie crackled, and someone on the other end told Abu not to kill Li Zan yet, as they still needed his help with making bombs.

Abu ordered José to cut Li Zan’s throat, and José had no choice but to approach. However, José blocked Li Zan, and Li Zan grabbed a rock, knocking Abu unconscious. Li Zan heard someone on the walkie-talkie saying they had captured Li Zan’s woman. Li Zan quickly gave chase and saw that Song Ran had been captured. The people holding Song Ran were using her to threaten Li Zan.

Song Ran told Li Zan to stay alive and that she had injured herself with the knife held by one of the captors. Li Zan was furious and charged toward the captor, but was pulled back by others. Song Ran was sent to the hospital, unconscious. Benjamin and the others were there, telling people to relay a message to Song Ran that they would definitely bring Li Zan back.

Benjamin told Sa Xin that they would be taking shifts, and Sa Xin should come in the morning to replace him. Right now, they were Li Zan’s last hope, and they needed to hold on to rescue him. Song Ran agreed. Benjamin found the place where Li Zan was held. He overheard a conversation, where someone was saying that the woman was dead, and Li Zan had actually cried.

Benjamin saw a woman, battered and bruised, lying on the ground with her back to Li Zan. She was wearing the same clothes that Song Ran had been wearing earlier, and she looked very much like Song Ran. Taking advantage of the moment when no one was around, Benjamin rescued Li Zan. Li Zan had sustained serious injuries and wasn’t fully conscious, but kept telling Song Ran to run.

Benjamin helped him escape, but they were soon spotted, and a fight broke out. More people began chasing them, but Benjamin and the others were nearly at the exit. Benjamin urged Li Zan to hold on, saying he still needed to find Song Ran. With more people arriving, Benjamin opened the door. Li Zan realized they couldn’t escape and pushed Benjamin out, slamming the door shut behind him, telling him to hurry and leave.

These people still needed Li Zan alive and wouldn’t kill him. Benjamin quickly ran back to get help, and Sa Xin woke up just in time to see Benjamin return. Song Ran regained consciousness and was told not to worry. Benjamin had found Li Zan, and Sa Xin had gone to rescue him. Li Zan was rescued and immediately taken to the operating room. When Song Ran heard this, she quickly went to wait by the door.

The doctor told Sa Xin and the others that Benjamin had suffered damage to his liver and kidneys and there was nothing more they could do. The medication given to Benjamin would only keep him awake for a short while, and if they had anything they wanted to say to him, they could do so now. Sa Xin went in to see Benjamin, who asked him to finish his studies for him and become a reporter in the future. Everyone went to Benjamin’s grave to pay their respects, and Song Ran was there too, placing a photo of him on the grave.
