In the autumn of 1945, the "Fuxing Cloth Shop" at the Surrender Road intersection was filled with red embroidery thread—young tailor Lin Xiaoman had waited three years for her fiancé Chen Mo, a soldier, to come back and marry her. But instead of the familiar figure, a bloodied stranger in a military uniform pushed through the door, clutching Chen Mo's jade pocket watch. He only managed to say, "Sergeant Chen asked me to pass a message," before collapsing unconscious. Old Zhou, the tea seller at the alley, always mumbled, "This road hides unspoken truths." While caring for the officer, Xiaoman found a blood-stained ledger under his pillow—the record of Japanese war crimes Chen Mo had died to protect. It turned out Chen Mo had fallen under the old locust tree on Surrender Road, shielding this comrade to get the ledger out. When the officer woke up and pulled out the ledger, Xiaoman traced Chen Mo's handwriting on the cover and finally heard the "unspoken words" of her fiancé: "I didn't forget to marry you, and I never forgot to bring the truth back alive."
