The next morning, Gu Mingzhou tells his wife that he has been informed of the whereabouts of the missing muer, and that he will be rewarded handsomely for his efforts. He tells her to go to the Hall of the Warlord, where the party is to be held, and he will explain everything to her. She is shocked to learn that her husband has left Germany half a year earlier, and has not been seen or heard from since. She tells her husband that she is looking for her husband, and she begs him to find her husband. He agrees, and they go downstairs to prepare for the party.
