MOM

I heard you skipped cram school again.

You're not picking up, either.
Just what are you doing these days?

FREEDOM, JUSTICE, PEACE

Gayoung, can you explain
frictional electricity to the class?

Frictional electricity
is produced by friction

and caused by the transfer of electrons.

Well done.

What an exhausting day, isn't it?

No, wait. Stop!

- What?
- What?

Is there a fire on the eighth floor?

No way. Two firefighters
live on that floor.

Right.

We're neighbors now.
I'll be seeing you often.

Let's not see each other often.

It's not good to have a case
big enough for a joint response.

Still, a detective needs a case
to warm up a little.

What is this?

Did you sign the lease,
because of the cheap rent?

I guess you need to warm up some more.

What, then?

Am I not allowed
to sign a cheap lease as I want?

That place...

is haunted.

It's true.

Darn it.

There's a call!

Assumed suicide. An unlock request.

Level one response.
Those off duty included.

What are you doing? Come.

Me?

Assumed suicide
is a joint response for sure.

Hurry up.

Let's go.

This is better than a ghost.

EMERGENCY CODE ISSUED
WHEN THERE IS A POTENTIAL DANGER TO LIFE

OR A NEED TO PREVENT CRIME

Kisoo, park the pumper
and bring the gear.

AMBULANCE
EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICE

God, I'm so car sick and nauseous.

- What? Why were you in that car?
- Helping out.

- Helping out?
- Yes.

Her name is Hyunseo,
and this isn't our first rodeo.

Hey. You should cordon off...

- Let's go.
- all the way...

We're going in first.

- Let's go.
- Okay.

- Hello.
- Hello, please help.

- Hello.
- Hello.

She changed the passcode again.

I'm sorry that this keeps happening.

Ma'am, how long have you not been able
to reach Hyunseo this time?

All day today.

- All day?
- Yes.

She does this all the time.

Geumhwang Real Estate Agency?

What?

The number cannot be reached...

Why wouldn't she pick up?

I think it's way too cheap.
Are you sure it has no problems?

So it was your daughter
that wasn't picking up.

Brought the gear.

I'm afraid we'll have to pry open
the door this time as well.

- Let me have it.
- Wait.

Can you not break the door?

What do you mean?

You see...

You destroyed the door lock
and the entire door last time,

and I had to pay
over 500,000 won for repairs.

I can't let you break down
another brand-new door.

It costs a fortune.

Please do understand.

Then what can we do?

We don't have the right to break it down
unless it's an emergency,

such as a fire.

- Should the police take over?
- No, we can't do that, either.

We're all civil servants here.

Hey.

So that's a no, right?

Let's go down and find another way.

Yes, sir.

We're leaving.

Hey, how can you just leave like this?

- Just break down...
- No, we have a way.

Come down now.

What should we do?
The pumper can't reach here.

I'll just climb the pipe.

- I'll come with you.
- Okay. Get ready.

You're going to climb the pipe?

Watch and see
how we sacrifice our bodies for rescue.

What, are they shooting
a movie at this hour? Spider-Man?

This neighborhood is actually prone
to wall-climbing burglaries.

There are no CCTV cameras,

and it's easy to climb the pipes.

They're good.

- Let's get ready.
- Yes, sir.

What's this smell?

Dojin. The first-aid kit.

Okay.

Hyunseo.

The first-aid kit.

- Over here!
- Coming!

What's this smell?

The smell is pretty bad. How is she?

I feel a pulse.

Hey. Don't let her mom see her.

- Wait.
- Why?

- Why?
- Please wait. Let us check first.

- Let's lay her down, Dojin.
- Okay.

- Ma'am.
- Hey. I told you to stop her.

- Oh, no.
- One minute.

Ma'am.

What the heck?

TURTLE RACING GAME

- Darn it. What is that?
- Turn that off.

That startled me.

Who are you?

Hyunseo, do you remember me?

One minute.

There's blood in her vomit.

- It's poison.
- Poison?

You idiot.
What did you take this time?

You're the only daughter I have.

- What's with you?
- That's enough!

Then why did you save me?

Can I not die as I wish?

Gosh.

- Ma'am!
- What?

- Do you know how worried I was?
- Ma'am!

She's a patient, ma'am.

Please calm down.

Hyunseo, what did you take?
How long has it been?

I don't know.

Hyunseo, you need to tell me.

Do you have a stomachache?

Are you dizzy?

- This smells.
- It does?

Jeez, this is it.

Look. Thank you so much.

She seems to be doing fine,
so you can all leave now.

- What?
- Ma'am.

We need to take her to the ER
and check what she consumed.

The ER?

The insurance didn't cover her self-harm,

so I had to pay 700,000 won
for the hospital bills last time.

Ma'am, she should at least get
her stomach pumped.

But didn't she already vomit everything?

There's nothing to pump out anymore.

Let's just leave, then.

What?

Bring us a Refusal of Transportation form.

Ma'am, go get your seal.

Why do you need that?

We need proof.

If she suffers any aftereffects
from the poison,

Article 275 of the Criminal Code
states that negligent behavior...

- is how many years in prison?
- Seven.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

You could be imprisoned for seven years.

So go get your seal, please.

Dongwoo, bring us a stretcher.

Myeongpil, I need a footprint lifter.

Footprint. Oh, yeah.

All right.

- Stay back.
- Wait.

- What the heck?
- Move aside!

Nothing is more important
than the patient.

You're ruining the scene.

This won't do.

There are too many of our footprints now.

It's okay. We can rule out our footprints.

Why aren't you wearing police shoes?

The design wasn't to my taste, so...

Are you serious?

We need to wear them to distinguish
our footprints at the scene.

This is so annoying.

Pick that up. Darn it.

There's no one who actually wears that.

Seriously.

One, two, three.

- Push it in further.
- Yes, sir.

Aren't you coming with me?

The police car is too boring.

Jeez.

I feel stuffy inside.

Hold on.

Here.

I'll give you some oxygen.
Focus on breathing, okay?

Here.

A DI patient
with a history of self-harming.

Trouble breathing
and chest pains in breathing.

Breathing at the left lung deteriorated.

She vomited 100 cc of blood
and has a sore throat.

Pump her stomach right away.

Yes, sir.

One, two, three.

- Putting her on a respirator.
- Okay.

- Have you collected the substance?
- Yes. Here you go.

This will help you breathe
more comfortably.

Remove the oxygen!

How much of this did you consume?

Not that much.

How many sips? One? Two?
How many times did you swallow?

About four times.

Run a urinalysis and a lab test,
and measure her creatinine level.

- Prepare for irrigation right away.
- Yes, sir.

- Prepare a urinalysis.
- Yes, ma'am.

Excuse me. What's going on?

Is she okay?

We need to run some tests.

- Please wait outside.
- But...

Let me draw some blood.

Seol.

We should go now.

Let's just wait for the lab test results.

Sure.

We won't drop you off home,
so just leave first.

I'm waiting for something, too.

Jeez.

Why did he tell me to take this
when she didn't even die?

Goodness.

How much oxygen did Ms. Kim Hyunseo get?

She had trouble breathing,

so I administered
0.9 of FiO2 via a reservoir bag

with an oxygen flow
of ten liters per minute

for about 12 minutes on our way here.

Oh, dear.

Her urine concentration level
is extremely high.

What's with the color of her urine?

This happens if you consume paraquat.

Her organs are shutting down.

Are you saying she ingested paraquat?

Her creatinine level is 5.5,
and her PO2 level is 67.

She consumed 60 cc of the solution.

That's five times the lethal dose.

The lethal dose?

But she's fine.

You saw how fine she was.

That's what makes paraquat so lethal.

Vomiting is the only immediate symptom.

But as you breathe in oxygen,
pulmonary fibrosis begins,

and you have trouble breathing.

Plus, she was given high levels
of oxygen on her way here,

which sped up the process.

I'm afraid she'll likely pass away soon.

Ma'am.

Saturation is dropping.

SATURATION
AMOUNT OF OXYGEN IN BLOOD

Mom, I can't breathe.

Doctor, she can't breathe.
Please give her a respirator.

No, ma'am. The more oxygen she gets,
the quicker her lungs will deteriorate.

Administer bicarbonate
to counter the acidosis.

Yes, sir.

Mom, what's wrong with me?

- Mom, I'm sorry.
- No.

- I won't do it ever again.
- Don't talk.

Just let me breathe...

Hyunseo.

Hyunseo! Oh, no!

Open your eyes. Look at me...

No.

Let go of me.

Hyunseo!

- Ma'am, wait.
- Wake up!

- No!
- Put that on.

- Hyunseo, no!
- Escort her guardian.

- Wake up, Hyunseo!
- I'll take over.

We got a ROSC.

ROSC
RETURN OF SPONTANEOUS CIRCULATION

Hyunseo.

- Seol.
- Yes?

Mom.

Mom, I'm sorry.

I wanted to make a lot of money,

so I could buy you nice things.

Hyunseo.

What?

Hyunseo! Oh, no!

She's having a cardiac arrest.

ARREST
CARDIAC ARREST

- Administer epinephrine.
- Yes, sir.

Charge to 150 joules.

- Clear.
- Clear.

Shock!

Again. Charge to 200 joules.

Shock.

Shouldn't you recharge?

Doctor?

Dr. Cha Jaehee!

Please...

Hyunseo, please wake up.

Hyunseo...

No!

Ms. Kim Hyunseo passed away at 22:47.

No!

No!

Hey, give me that.

Darn it.

- You need her fingerprint.
- Darn it.

- Should we take her away now?
- Yes.

What are you doing right now?

I'm sorry.

"I'll end your pathetic
15-year life in just 15 seconds."

She was being blackmailed.

The individual sent the text
through a foreign, anonymous chat app.

All the texts are automatically deleted
after some time,

and it's hard to track them down
since it's anonymous.

It's a Russian server.

They were smart.

Judging by the text,

it must be related to a sex-related video
or a sex crime.

We'll have to check to be sure.

Thanks. Let's go.

Okay. Thank you.

I'll give you some oxygen.
Focus on breathing, okay?

The more oxygen she gets,
the quicker her lungs will deteriorate.

Don't you want to apologize to me?

Why would I?

An investigation is like putting
a puzzle together.

But we're missing a piece.

Someone tampered with the crime scene,
so we're in a pickle.

One minute.

Will this piece of information help?

They said I wouldn't die
even if I took pesticide...

Someone else was involved.

So this might not have been a suicide?

You fire crew are so simpleminded.

Sorry?

If she was tricked to die,
it's deceptive murder.

If she was threatened,
it's coerced murder.

If someone ordered it,
it's a murder of contract.

If she didn't want to commit suicide,
it's an instigated suicide.

If they helped her commit suicide,

it's aiding and abetting.

If she was force-fed, it's homicide.
This is a huge puzzle.

And since this was a joint response,
help me out.

How?

Well...

Detective, aren't you coming?

Right. Get changed and follow me.

What was that?

Hyunseo wasn't supposed
to be given an oxygen mask!

I'm sorry. I truly am.

Don't do this. Stay strong.

- What should I do?
- I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for your loss.

What? A vaginal swab test?

TAEWON GENERAL HOSPITAL
FUNERAL SERVICE

Semen can survive in a uterus
for as long as a week.

I'm sure you already know that.

Even still, she just lost her daughter.

All evidence will be lost
once they cremate her body.

You really need it, right?

Ma'am, Hyunseo needs to find peace.

Please help us.

That won't work.

He's trying to appeal emotionally.
That's old-school.

- Darn it.
- He's coming.

I bet he failed.

Think of another way.

You can go ahead.

Thank you for your effort.

Call the National Forensic Service.

Not bad.

I'm just helping out.
You better catch the criminal.

I should.

Let's go.

That was oddly offensive.

Nothing is impossible for the Bulldozer.

What's that?

That's Mr. Bong's nickname.

He's called so,
because nothing gets in his way.

Go join his department from tomorrow on
if you like him that much.

Come on. It's not like that.

Right. Should I go talk to them?

Do you think they'll listen?

Why not? Even the Bulldozer did it.

Hey.

Drink up.

Drink some beverages.

I heard Kim Hyunseo committed suicide.
So why are there cops involved?

Well, you see...

Are you even a cop?

He doesn't look like one.

Stop that and tell me more about Hyunseo.
How was she at school?

We only came by,
because our homeroom teacher told us to.

We were never close to her.

Put down your phones.

I told the hospital
to turn off their Wi-Fi.

Why did you?

- This is frustrating.
- I can't believe this.

Do you feel sad for her now?

What are you doing?

It's my first time at a funeral hall,
so I'm filming a vlog.

I have unlimited data.

You might as well take a selfie
with her photo in there.

What do you want from me?

Hey, let's go.

- Let's go.
- This is irritating.

Wait, guys. Sit back down.

Hey, guys.

I'll go after them.

Guys, where are you going?

Hey.

I gathered the DNA.

- I'll take them to the NFS right away.
- All right.

Sorry.

PYUNGDO-DONG FEMALE STUDENT
FATAL POISONING CASE

Hyunseo was an outsider at school.

In other words, she was an outcast.

She didn't have any friends
and was always on her phone.

What about that text?

Is the international investigation team
looking into the sender?

Yes, we filed a request.

We'll identify them
as soon as they check the overseas server.

I guess we'll just have to wait
for an official reply.

When did we ever rely
on official documents?

Jeez. It's been quite some time now.

Ever since the police academy,

I always told you that a detective
had to be calm and collected to the bone.

So since when did you become so crazy?

Let's just wait
for the international team.

It takes them weeks to reply.

I'm telling you. This case smells fishy.

Since when did we investigate
with our noses?

Then hurry up and enlighten me
instead of just sniffing around.

All right.

When Hyunseo drank that pesticide,

there was someone else with her.

Right. The footprint.

Exactly.

They probably saw Hyunseo
being taken into the ambulance.

Realizing that she was still alive

must have made them panic.

I'LL END YOUR PATHETIC 15-YEAR LIFE
IN JUST 15 SECONDS

That's why they sent her
that threatening text

to shut her up.

Jindo Dog.

Are you the suspect?

Think about it.

If not, how could you possibly understand

what a criminal was thinking?

Maybe he has a dark past.

Come in.

Did you find anything?

They detected no semen.

Jeez. After all that fuss we made?

Ruling out is a part of the investigation.

Her whereabouts?

The digital forensics showed
she had been only at home or her school.

She barely chatted with anyone
and didn't have a social media account,

so either the top student or an outcast.

That can't be.

Her laptop was turned on
when we got there.

There was a program

that automatically erased
her internet history permanently.

Many kids who share their computers
with their parents install that program.

This is a dead end.
We reaped nothing.

But she was always on her phone.

Then what in the world
was she doing with it?

Over here!

Coming!

The smell is pretty bad.

Hey. Don't let her mom see her.

- Wait.
- Why?

Over here!

Coming!

Hey, wait.

Wait.

Why are you here?

This place is bad luck.
I shouldn't have moved in here.

Check this out.

What is that?

It's footage from my body cam
when we were in Hyunseo's house.

Here.

They're self-harm marks
on Hyunseo's wrists.

It's called a wrist-cutting syndrome.

It happens when you use
a thin, blunt boxcutter repeatedly.

They even upload photos
on their social media.

And this.

This was the day we rescued her.

Look. She didn't have
that star tattoo in the past.

Aren't you getting off?

In the past, Ancient Greeks

relied solely on stars
when traveling the world.

I'm going stargazing.
I'll have to meet that ghost next time.

You can go.

I'm just helping you out.

Why did you volunteer to help?

Don't talk to me. I'm busy.

Oh. My eyes are so sore.

Don't you think we're wasting time?

There are countless
self-harming people on the Internet.

You don't want
to work with me, do you?

No. Yes.

- You little bastard.
- I do.

Be thorough, okay?

As if you're reading a restaurant menu.

And put your socks elsewhere.

Where's the wet tissue? Found it.

Is this funny to you?

What time is it?

Aren't you tired?

Don't talk to me. I'm in my zone.

How far are you?

Is this Hyunseo's? Is it evidence?

KIM HYUNSEO

Same name, different person.

Sorry for touching that without asking.

Forget it.

I've seen until this tissue photo,
so you can pick up from here.

All right.

They have the same name.

Were you close with Hyunseo?

She suddenly started
addressing me casually.

- So I felt...
- We're all alone in this world.

Enough with the tearjerker.

Jindo Dog, was it? That nickname...

suits you perfectly.

I can hear you.

Watch out. My bites are painful.

You don't bite civilians, right?

I do if I'm mad enough.

Hey.

I found the stars.

Look. The star tattoo.

Hyunseo had the same one
on her left wrist.

"Mad because I have no friends."

"Wary of guys because I have no dad."

"Created this account,
so I could be secretly depressed."

"No meddling or patronizing."

I think this is Hyunseo's.

It must have been so painful.

Look.

There are more photos.

She went to expensive restaurants.

LONELY-SCORPIO28, ♪OCCASIONAL FOODGRAM
♪ SOMEONE ELSE'S MONEY ♪BOOMER

"Someone else's money"?

Someone must have treated her.

Jindo Dog, doesn't this smell fishy?

It reeks.

See the plate across her.
She wasn't alone.

How can we find out
whom she ate with?

All right. Let's draw a map. Volunteers?

She uploaded eight restaurant food photos
in the past nine months.

We used the GPS data

to locate the restaurants
and marked them on the map.

Let's dive into the details.

Find a number
that accessed the restaurants

at the same time as she did.

That's the suspect.

We're talking about millions here.

It's impossible to investigate
without wasting time.

Call Mr. Baek. I'm going to the restroom.

Is he the boss here?
He's telling me to waste my time?

Would this be the Jindo Dog emergency?

Yes. The highest emergency
with Jindo Dog on the loose.

Ugh! I finally feel like working,
thanks to him.

Why is she so eager?

Here are the numbers
for Apgujeong-dong, Gangnam-go.

Pick the color of your choice.

- Will one be enough?
- Here's Cheongdam-dong.

Here you go.

Shall we begin analyzing?

Okay.

Give me a list for each region.

BASE STATION ACCESS HISTORY

I got it.

Look at that. Bravo.

Fascinating.

Zero, eight...

Two, one...

Gosh.

Jeez.

Two, two, three, two.

INTEGRATED DETECTIVE TEAM

We got overlapping numbers.
I'll print out their personal details.

- Did you use Excel?
- Yes.

What is this?
Were we just wasting time here?

Excel is quicker.

All right, let's get the addresses.

It's more exciting
to meet the suspect in person.

Got it. This is exhilarating.
Get the cuffs.

I got them.

I'm calling shotgun.

Hey! You little rascal.

- Wait.
- That's right.

Aren't you coming?

Go. You can go first.

I need to check something.

I'd really like to know
what goes on in his head.

Let me know when you crack open his head.
I'm curious, too.

PYUNGDO-DONG, PREVENTION PROJECT
FOR WALL-CLIMBING BURGLARY

, 4, PYUNGDO-DONG 75-GIL,
TAEWON-GU, SEOUL

Mr. Cho Mansik?

Yes. That's me.

Didn't we meet at Hyunseo's funeral?

Sorry.

I'm not sure.

Honey.

Oh, my.
What an adorable daughter you have.

- Thank you.
- What is it?

It's nothing. Go inside first.
It won't take long.

Let's go.

Shall we go?
I don't think we should talk here.

This is Ms. Kim Hyunseo.
Do you recognize her?

Who is this?
I have a hard time remembering people.

Look at you. There's no point in lying.
We already know.

You were her sugar daddy.

You took her to expensive restaurants.

Sugar daddy?

Mr. Baek.

- You're here.
- Hey.

Mr. Cho Mansik,
may I take a look at your palm?

It wasn't him.

What was that?
Were you reading his palm or something?

Have you gone mad?

He may have eaten with her,
but he's not the blackmailer.

I'll be honest.

I'm Hyunseo's birth father.

Her mother and I

briefly lived together
when I was working outside of town.

I only found out later...

that we had a daughter.

We understand.

Did Hyunseo seem odd recently?

She wasn't eating much lately.

She was always on her phone.

Why aren't you eating?

And then…

Eat up.

She asked me for some money.

How much?

Ten million won?
That's a hefty sum for a student.

She probably asked for that much,
because her birth dad seemed well-off.

Anyway, that was the only lead we had,

but it's over now.

I'm famished. Let's go home.

Hey, you need to come with me.

Why? Do I have to go?

Just go tomorrow.
Don't torment him this late at night.

Mr. Baek, you can go home.

He and I have
one last puzzle piece to find.

It only lights up at night.

Let's go.

What is he saying? Goodbye, sir.

Does this mean I need to call a cab?

That's from the prevention project
for wall-climbing burglaries.

That's right.

They painted all the pipes around here
with fluorescent material last year.

So this doesn't show

until you shine a black light on it.

It's not easily removable, either.

The firefighters had it
on the soles of their shoes.

So that's why you checked his palm.

Get me some gloves. We're climbing up.

All right.

Give me some lifter.

- Here you go.
- Hold this.

Nice to meet you, you scumbag.

- Darn it.
- Darn it.

Why is it not showing up on the AFIS?

What's going on? Are they from abroad?

Look at that. You were barking up
the wrong tree once again.

Okay. This is good. I saw this coming.

What? Wake up.
We're unable to find a match.

It's only right
that we can't find a match for it.

- What?
- What? What do you mean?

All right.

- Hold on.
- What?

What is all this?

GLASSES

"Glasses."

"Selfie stick."

"Red."

"Frizzy hair."

"Cheeky."

I don't know their names.

Compare it with these fingerprints.

There has to be a match.

I promise I'll catch you

and toss you as dog food.

What are you doing? What's that?

It's an air collector
that analyzes odor particles.

Anna invented this.

What are you analyzing?

The next door.

There's evaporated oil,
carbonized material,

chlorine, sodium, potassium, zinc, lead...
What's this?

Pork ribs. It's a bit charred.

What?

You've got a good nose.

That's not even cooked yet.

Hey, why did you bring Jindo Dog?

He has a great sense of smell.
He's a dog after all.

Hey, who grilled this?
I love this smoky taste.

Chef Bong, of course.
He's in charge of cooking.

He's also known for his fiery personality.

Shouldn't a firefighter...

focus on extinguishing fires,
instead of grilling smoky meat?

Do you think we only eat drenched meat?

Hey, can you stop eating so much?

I got a match.

CHEEKY

- "Cheeky."
- That's it.

I told you. Let's go.

Gosh, his face screams,
"I'm cheeky."

As a minor, his fingerprints
shouldn't be in the AFIS.

They've yet to be registered.

Detective Jin, what made you
get their fingerprints?

The footprints were small.

♪ I hope pining for you ♪

♪ Will help us cross paths one day ♪

I'll drive fast.

Hey, are you sure he's even home?

I don't hear anything. Is he asleep?

It's going to be a headache
if he refuses to open the door for us.

We should plan this out carefully.

Can you stop doing that?

Who is it?

I'm here to pick up a package.
I need to collect fees for the return.

Hi. We met at Hyunseo's funeral, right?

Watch out. You'll trip.

Why are you running, Cheeky?

Hey!

God, that's hot.

Look at you.
You must have watched a lot of movies.

We found his shoes
that glow under the black light.

Yang Juntae.

Why were your fingerprints
in Hyunseo's house?

Because I'm the class president.

Our teacher told me
to keep an eye on the outcasts.

So I visited her.

Let me see your hands.

I see.

But why did you have to climb
the gas pipes?

I'm the chairman
of our school's rock-climbing club.

I thought I'd practice.

But what does that have to do
with Hyunseo's death?

I'm not sure.

Sir.

That's the only evidence you have, right?

Yes, it is.

Then, can I go?

It's the level test week
at my cram school.

I can keep you here for up to six hours
since you voluntarily came.

I even got your parents' permission.

We still have time,
so sit tight until I bring more evidence.

You should feed him.

Jindo... Detective Jin.

This is exactly
why I hate studious kids.

He's watching an online class
while being held in there.

We need to remove
that studious facade of his.

Isn't he so irritating
that you want to snatch his earphones out?

The earphones.

Let's do that.

Anna, come with me.

Myeongpil, get something
from the convenience store.

Over here!

Did your body cam record
the music that startled us?

Of course, it did.

Anna, find out what that music is.

Okay.

What are you guys doing here?

She's helping us out.

Ah.

No wonder she asked for ten million.

You have no evidence, do you?

Government authorities shouldn't lie.

Lie?

We're not petty like that.

You have five minutes left.

You'll be punctual, right?

Did you find anything?

Have some.

No, thanks. I'm allergic to caffeine.

I set my alarm,
so I could take medicine on time.

I have weak knees.

What's the matter?

Are you all right?
The color drained from your face.

Are you tense?

I'm not.

Don't lie.

When we tense up,

our body's responding system causes
the capillary vessels to contract.

You know why? Because more blood
needs to be sent to crucial organs.

That's why we become pale
like you are right now.

Isn't your heart racing
from all the blood it's getting?

Recognize this music?

You were with Hyunseo
when she died, weren't you?

We got the digital forensics
for Mr. Yang Juntae's phone.

Did you think your phone
was a sweet potato?

Did you think microwaving it
would fry all the data?

We restored everything in there.

I thought all you did was study
as the class president.

But you had quite a hobby.

Hey.

Usually, when we're remembering a fact,
we look toward our top right.

And when we're imagining,
we look toward our top left.

You were just moving your eyes
from side to side.

That's a mixture of the two.

He's trying to think of a way out.

Was it fun to blackmail others
using their weaknesses?

How does it feel to be the victim?

Drink this.

He bought it specially for you.

Darn it! Turn that music off!

Nice to meet you, Yang Juntae.
You're finally revealing your true face.

Darn it.

This is all because of that loser.

Hey, Hyunseo.

Period cramps?

Care to play an awesome game?

What? Are you talking to me?

Then who else?

A turtle race.

It's an illegal gambling game.

Curiosity got the better of me, too.

TURTLE RACING GAME

My mom works like a dog
just to make three million won a month.

Three million?
You could make that in three hours.

This game is made for you to make money.

She was blinded
by the money and jumped in.

Gayoung, can you explain
frictional electricity...

But you see,

the more you play,
the more you lose money on that game.

- That's how it is.
- by the transfer of electrons.

TURTLE RACING GAME

You were scheming something bigger.

I only borrowed 2 million

and worked part-time
to pay off 1.3 million.

So how is ten million the interest?
That's absurd!

Are you insane?
Why are you asking me that?

You're the one who lent me the money
on the messaging app.

You purposely lured me
into this game, didn't you?

Look. You write the "two" in numerals.

That's your habit.

You have two days.
Give me the interest.

What do you want me to do?

I'll tell everyone
about loan-sharking and gambling!

Hey!

Are you trying to ruin my life?

I'll just beat you to a pulp.

The goal was to make
her borrow money.

She was already paying you interest.

So why did you blackmail her?

Because she kept threatening
to tell the school about it.

She was acting up too much.

So I needed to have something on her.

You should thank me
for taking these awesome photos.

It's a pity
you can't show these to others.

You're my slave now.

If you don't pay me on time,
I'll send the photos to your mom's office.

I'm sorry. I beg you.

Please don't do that.

You have until tomorrow.

Bring me your mom's ID card,
phone, bank account, and password.

Let's use your mom's bank.

Use her mom's bank?

Overdrawing from her mom's bank account.

But she was being nuts
and refused to do it.

This.

It's a pesticide I got from my grandma's
in the country last year.

She said it will kill you if you drink it.

Don't make me laugh.

Do you think I'd buy this?

Who drinks pesticide
to kill yourself these days?

I'm so dumbfounded.

You're terrible at playing the game,

and you have a ton of debt.

Why are you still alive? Why?

You're no good to this society, you know?

Drink it.

Try drinking it.

You said you would.

Drink it!

You're a pathetic cow.

You don't even have the guts to do it.

Darn it! Are you serious?

I'll end your pathetic 15-year life

in just 15 seconds.

Even after ingesting that,
she played the game until the end

because she was afraid of what you'd do.

By the way, detectives,

By the way, detectives,

my birthday hasn't passed yet.

What did you say?

I'm still a minor who's yet to turn 14.

I can't be punished.

My dad said I could do anything
to relieve the stress I got from studying.

All right.

Was that the best you
could come up with in the past six hours?

Yes, your birthday isn't in three months.

But there's something you overlooked.

It'll take over three months
to book this case,

organize your testimony,
and send you to the prosecution.

You won't be a minor by then.

Did your online class not teach you this?

What did you say?

That's not right!

Of course, it is.

Yang Juntae.

Article 252 of the Criminal Code,
aiding and abetting a suicide.

Article 246, compulsive gambling.

Article 347, fraud.

Article 319, trespassing.

Article 14 of the Act on Special Cases
Concerning Sexual Crimes,

illegal filming and blackmail.

I'll book you, then. Hey.

Yes, sir.

PIL: Let's go, Juntae.

- Get up.
- Get off me!

Come on.

- I'm still a minor!
- Okay, sure.

That scumbag broke that.

Did the laws change
regarding indicting a minor?

Of course not.

Article four of the Juvenile Law
and Article nine of the Criminal Code

state that the age is based
on the time when they committed the act.

He is a minor.

Does this mean you lied to that kid?

I wanted him to feel terrified.

Come on. I told you
he wasn't to mess with.

This lunatic.

Look at you. How did you restore
the data from the fried phone so quickly?

MacGyver of Taewon Police Station,
Bong-Gyver.

Well done.

I didn't restore anything.
Everything got fried.

What?

What do you mean?

He said that was the only way
to make that kid come clean.

Come inside after three minutes
and say you restored everything.

I want double that size.

Jindo Dog, did you lie to me as well?

Mr. Baek, you're no longer
the quick and smart polar bear

that you used to be.

That scumbag sure is the bastard Jindo Dog

who would do anything
to get what he wants.

He sure is the bastard Jindo Dog.

Hold on. A polar bear?

- (Pil laughs)
- Yes, that was me.

I used to be a ferocious and passionate
polar bear who ruled the glaciers.

That's what everyone called me.

That's what I used to be.

Cleaning?

I'm returning this.

What? You didn't wash it.

I haven't gone home yet,
so cut me some slack.

Fine. I'll cut you some slack.

I heard about Hyunseo's case.

You sure have the hunting spirit
that befits your nickname.

You can barely call this hunting.

I need to improve my performance
and leave this town.

I don't have time
to mope around the suburbs.

Did you actually mean that?

Mean what?

When you dared him to stab you.

Stab me. Are you scared?

Let me get promoted, thanks to this.

I personally need it, too.

Yes.

Why aren't there many violent crimes
in this neighborhood?

This town is too quiet.

It's no fun and too boring.

What was that?

You're not a Jindo dog but just a mutt.

I heard you.

I smell bread.

DOJIN: Are you not done yet?

I told you to have some bread.

You were right.
He's not a Jindo dog, but just a mutt.

- Who?
- Him.

Oh, him? He's just a crazy dog.

That, too.

The next door is going to be noisy
for some time.

Or it could be more fun.

KIM HYUNSEO

We're carrying out a breathalyzer test.

Can you make sure he doesn't go?

KID

Had he not been a cop,
he would have become a thug.

No.

A serial killer.

I'm sure you're right.

Don't forget.

In the past,

if a dog bit a human,

it would be beaten with a club to death.

(tense music)

PROSECUTION SERVICE

Sir, you need to return now.

How long will I have this curfew?

My application for bail?

You'll be out soon enough.

Officer.

Let me.

He'll never dig his own son's grave.

Do a background check on Jindo Dog.

Yes, sir.

PICK-UP DRUG TRAFFICKING
INVESTIGATION REPORT

NAME: JIN HOGAE

FATHER: JIN CHULJOONG

CERTIFICATE OF APPOINTMENT

Make sure no one finds out that I met with

the chief prosecutor.

CHIEF PROSECUTOR
JIN CHULJOONG

SEOUL EAST DISTRICT PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

Your application
for bail was accepted.

Do you admit
to the drug-trafficking charges?

You were told to resign as the director
of Masong and step down from management.

What's your take on that?

I'm sorry, but no interviews
are allowed today.

A word on your charge
of the murder conspiracy!

- Please say something!
- How do you feel?

Please give us a word!

I want some action.

Since the pole position is great,

let's race it up.

- I've emptied the race track.
- Well done.

Dad!

Dad!

- Honey.
- Hey.

Did I look awesome?

You did!

I came first place!

Here's your tasty meat.

Thank you.

- Eat up.
- Thank you for the meal.

- Thanks, honey.
- My pleasure.

Let the meat cool down a bit.

It looks like a pizza.

- Sir, you have a call.
- it's shaped like a pizza.

Hello...

I'm sorry.

Do you know how many people
I've asked for help because of you?

I'm removing your resident registration.

I want you out of my family registry.

I'm sorry, Father.
It was terribly wrong of me.

I'm sorry, Father.

I'm sorry!

Darn it.

You don't want it?

Did you do his background check?

Something interesting happened

seven years ago.

That Jindo Dog...

really bit someone to death.

A crazy dog that got a taste of blood

will only come back for more.

Thanks.

For what?

I heard you played a major role
in solving Hyunseo's case.

Officer Song was heartbroken over her.

But why are you thanking me for that?

Whatever.

It's an investigation report
on the fire at your place.

What is this? My housewarming gift?

No. I hope that'll encourage you
to move out.

It's a chilling case.

See you later.

A closed-door fire and missing case.

And a cold case at that?

It looks pretty ordinary

for a haunted house that has been on fire.

NEXT STUDIO, TAEWON-GU, SEOUL
FIRE INCIDENT REPORT

2020 LEVEL 9 OPEN RECRUITMENT TEST SLIP

Park Taehoon. Age, 28.
Preparing for the civil service exam.

On October 5 at 9 p.m.,
a year and a half ago,

went missing after being
last spotted by the camera

in the lobby, coming home

after buying some soju
at the convenience store.

On October 12 at around 4 p.m.,
a fire of unknown cause broke out.

About 30% to 70%
of the entire building was destroyed.

THE FIRST RESPONDERS

Who's there?

Are you a ghost?

Come out!

Are you trying to catch ghosts now?

Detective, isn't this...

Ghosts appear when they have a grudge.

Will you cooperate?

Fine, okay.

I'll take the closed-door fire.

I'll take the closed-door murder.

This is now a murder case.

Let's not be a crazy dog.

This world needs a crazy dog, too.

There was a reason
why Jin Hogae came to Taewon.

Just a moment.

Detective Jin, are you kidding me?

Barking up the wrong tree again?

A case needs a twist for it to be fun.
