An educated youth who disappeared in Tanghe Brigade during Wang Guifen's previous life. No one in the brigade knew how he died; he was only known to be an orphan. Wang Guifen suspects that his death was connected to the spy who is now captured, noting that the timing was too perfect—the spy appeared on the very first day the educated youths arrived, at the dormitory itself. His death serves as a key plot point that motivates Wang Guifen's urgency in preventing further harm to the educated youths. He does not appear alive in the current timeline.
