miss_ingnoContext: Chu Shuzhi rescues Xiao Guo and Grandma Li during the one and only time he uses his puppet to fight. Back at the SID Zhao Yunlan realizes the Shadowman mistook the victim for Li Qian since they look similar and decides to follow her himself the next day, starting from when her grandma sees her off.
(We also get some Shen Wei pining over Zhao Yunlan’s file, our first YOHE flashback, and an ominous scene of Li Qian contemplating sleeping pills)
After our scene, SID investigates a dark set of tunnels, and Shen Wei gets a better look at the sundial before being attacked by the Shadowman at DCU.

Questions:
- What do you think of the parallels established between Li Qian and Shen Wei? Does this count as foreshadowing for Shen Wei’s story?
I think there’s some obvious connections they’re trying to draw between the two, especially with the visual affinity of their customes (their outfits almost always match in this episode, but especially in this scene) - Why does Shen Wei intercept Zhao Yunlan? Li Qian is clearly struggling, and Zhao Yunlan is just as obviously staking her out. And yet, Shen Wei sends Li Qian away and holds up Zhao Yunlan before he can follow.
- Can the SID recruit Dixingren who are on the surface and have done no harm that would demand they hand them over to Heipaoshi for justice?
- Both of them are trying to figure each other out here. What do you think of their conversational gambits? What does this conversation establish about their cat-and-mouse game pattern for the episodes until the reveal?
- What do you think about the familiarity/having met before line? Does Zhao Yunlan actually feel something or is it just a line? What are both of them thinking here?
- There’s so much happening here, I’m sure I missed some stuff! What else did you notice? What’s your favourite part of this scene?
