Episode 24 recap: The third team completed the mission.

Wang Da Yong is going to be taken back. The members of the third team rushed over and watched as Wang Da Yong was taken away. They felt a sense of relief. Cheng Bing returned to the auto repair shop, and Pan Da Hai came over and said that Wang Da Yong mentioned he only wanted to talk to Cheng Bing. The department has already approved it. Perhaps for Wang Da Yong, Cheng Bing is also a thorn in his heart.

Cheng Bing went to the department to meet Wang Da Yong. Wang Da Yong talked about his younger brother and asked Cheng Bing how it feels to kill someone as a police officer. Cheng Bing said he is different from Wang Da Yong. Wang Da Yong didn't think there was much difference. Killing is killing to him, and he didn't want to kill them either. They stood in his way.

Cheng Bing said he has paid the price for his own mistakes, and now it's Wang Da Yong's turn. Wang Da Yong said Cheng Bing has been looking for him for so many years, so he must have many questions to ask himself. They should have a good conversation.

Cheng Bing asked Wang Da Yong how he managed to escape back then when the entire city was under martial law. Wang Da Yong said he indeed felt that he couldn't escape. He went to the railway and left it to fate. Wang Da Yong survived, thinking it was destiny. He hid in the sewer for many days and finally found an opportunity to get out.

Later, Wang Da Yong went to many places where ID cards were not required for work, but he didn't even dare to leave his fingerprints. He bit the bullet and burned his fingers. Cheng Bing mentioned that he went to Cha Bang. Wang Da Yong said that wasn't the first place he went. Before that, he stayed in a small town in Guizhou for half a year.

Wang Da Yong said he didn't want to kill Mr. Pang. It was Mr. Pang who wanted to kill him. He didn't expect Mr. Pang to survive either. Cheng Bing mentioned Li Hong Xia, and Wang Da Yong said he did indeed use her initially. It would be more convenient to have a woman with a child by his side. Later, he genuinely wanted to live a good life, but everything changed after he took a shower.

Cheng Bing felt that Wang Da Yong was only interested in Li Hong Xia because she could help him obtain residency. Wang Da Yong said he fled overnight and ended up getting lost in the mountains, where he passed out from the cold. Someone rescued him and brought him back.

Wang Da Yong said he originally didn't intend to kill An Zi, but he realized they looked really similar, with An Zi just being slightly fatter, which triggered his murderous intent.

Wang Da Yong discovered that An Zi's ID card was going to expire, so he hid An Zi first, then they went back to their hometown together to get a new ID card. He also took him to work in a coal mine. However, before Wang Da Yong could make a move, the May 12 incident happened. Wang Da Yong took the opportunity to kill An Zi and has been living using his identity ever since.

Wang Da Yong believed that he was becoming a good person. It was Cheng Bing who stood in his way. Cheng Bing stated that Wang Da Yong was caught because of the evil deeds he had done before, and the so-called "being a good person" for Wang Da Yong meant causing pain to others. Moreover, if someone obstructed his path, he would commit evil again.

Wang Da Yong mentioned that he did go back home once and saw Wang Miao Miao's phone number. He called, but Cheng Bing answered the call. At that moment, Wang Da Yong felt that something was wrong. Wang Da Yong asked Cheng Bing if, after spending four years and not catching him, Cheng Bing would feel that it was not worth it.

Cheng Bing said that he would have felt that way in the past, but not anymore. Life is a process, and in this process, reconciling with oneself and with others is what makes it worthwhile. Cheng Bing came back to tell Wang Miao Miao that they found her uncle. Wang Miao Miao asked Cheng Bing if he was not leaving anymore.

Cheng Bing went to see Pan Da Hai, and they talked about their respective children. Cheng Bing left first, and someone asked if they could withdraw. Pan Da Hai told them to remove all the clues related to the Wang Da Yong case from several walls.

Zhao Xiao Mai's father came and bowed at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau, presenting a plaque. Everyone gathered there to celebrate and noticed that Cheng Bing and the others were missing. The members of the third team came to see Qi Shu, indicating that they had completed their mission. (End of the entire drama)
