Stay healthy, Myeong-jun.

And be a good boy to your dad.

I'll always pray for you.

Okay.

Thank you, Sister.

Say your goodbyes.

I'll see you again.

-Stay well.
-Thanks.

-You have to be happy, okay?
-You too.

Goodbye.

Come on.

Your dad is waiting.

Okay.

-Goodbye, Myeong-jun.
-Bye.

-Bye!
-Bye!

Have a good life!

-Goodbye, Myeong-jun.
-Stay healthy.

Bye!

-Bye!
-Bye, Myeong-jun!

Bye, Myeong-jun!

-Myeong-jun!
-Bye, Myeong-jun!

Who are you?

Since when were you hiding in there?

What?

Hye-eun!

What's going on?

I'm sorry, sir.

I...

Are you Myeong-jun?

Yes.

Then who are you?

Hello, I'm Seo Hye-eun.

I asked for a boy.

What happened?

She hid herself in the trunk.

Please don't send me back.

You don't have to adopt me.
I'll be your servant if I have to.

I'm good at running errands,

carrying heavy things, and doing laundry.

I learned how to cook
at the orphanage too!

Quiet.

They must be hungry.

Let's have them eat first.

Yes, sir.

Get up.

Myeong-jun, think carefully.

Who do you think needs a dad between us?

I have trouble digesting food
and get sick very often.

See this? I also have eczema,

so I need someone to look after me.

But you're healthy,

digest food very well, and athletic.

I'm glad.

-About what?
-I was worried earlier

because you weren't there
when I said goodbye to everyone.

I thought you were getting scolded
by one of the sisters

because we played with a towel.

See?

When both of us cause trouble,

I get scolded, but not you.

I'll never be loved
if I'm not adopted, okay?

Then what should we do?

Dr. Choi wants to see you two
after you finish eating.

-Okay.
-Okay.

I have no reason to adopt two children.

My initial decision was Myeong-jun,

so I'll adopt him.

However,

it seems like
you're quite desperate, Hye-eun.

I'll choose one of you...

using my own method.

STANDARD INTELLIGENCE TEST

You've done this at school before, right?

It's an IQ test.

Whoever scores higher

will live with me.

Understood?

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

All right, then.

Try your best and solve the questions.

That was nerve-racking.

STANDARD INTELLIGENCE TEST

CHAPTER 9. THE GIRL

BASED ON THE NOVEL
THE DAY OF KIDNAPPING BY JEONG HAE-YEON

Welcome back.

Two days after Kim Myeong-jun
was selected as the experimental subject,

the subject changed to Seo Hye-eun.

The kid who was a candidate
of the experimental subject grew up

and kidnapped
the complete product of the experiment,

as he understands the value of it
more than anyone else.

Are you saying
Kim Myeong-jun intentionally kidnapped

and murdered Choi Ro-hee?

That's what the record says.

THE GENIUS CHILD PROJECT NO.2
NAME: SEO HYE-EUN

Don't tell me you still trust him
after he deceived you.

So he killed the man
who knew the value of Ro-hee

and the only person
he could negotiate with?

I know, right?

If he was just going to kidnap her,
then there's no reason to murder Dr. Choi.

Right.

But if you look at how uncanny
the body was,

it feels like he killed him
in the heat of the moment.

If the murder was premeditated,

he would've died like So Jin-yu.

In other words,

Park Cheol-won's statement
is quite convincing.

The kidnapper is Kim Myeong-jun,
and the murderer is Park Cheol-won.

Isn't it strange that Seo Hye-eun
is irrelevant to this case

when she knows both of these men?

You have a point.

But she has a solid alibi
on the day of the incident,

and we have no evidence.

And we can't request
a search warrant either.

How about you do a cross-examination?

Set up a meeting
between Park Cheol-won and Seo Hye-eun.

CHOI JIN-TAE'S HOUSE CCTV

Choi Jin-tae?

Hee-ae.

I'm in the recovery room.
She hasn't woken up yet.

Thank you for being so strong, my baby.

Hurry up and come.

You should be here when she wakes up.

You know the cops are here too, right?

If you turn yourself in
and be cooperative,

the cops will find Ro-hee.

CHOI JIN-TAE'S HOUSE CCTV

Why aren't you answering me?

Kim Myeong-jun.

Myeong-jun, what are you looking at?

Show me Hee-ae.

Come see her yourself.

Show me Hee-ae.

Come and see her.

I need to check something.

Kim Myeong...

I need to check something.

What was that about?

Come on in.

Dr. Mo, I know it's before working hours,

but you have a guest.

What? Who?

Gosh, what a nice hospital.

You may leave.

Can I ask you where you're standing?

What do you mean?

Whether you're on our side or not.

I can't tell
which side of the court you're on.

It doesn't matter.

I'm not interested in either side's goals.

How's Byeol doing?

Are you threatening me?

Don't pressure me by mentioning her name.

I won't stand back.

All right.

Calm down.

I'm here to get your help,
not to threaten you.

Here.

This is it.

Five times your initial investment,
ten billion won.

It's in cryptocurrency.

You have my deepest gratitude
for your investment.

Take it back.

Is this not enough?

You can have this money.

However,

if you exclude Byeol from this project,

I'll see to it that you and X Capital
will be brought down.

So don't you dare
try to play games with money.

You'll regret this.

Ro-hee won't be in Korea soon.

What do you mean?

Where are you taking her?

You shouldn't get emotional
when there are lethal weapons everywhere.

Let me know if you change your mind.

I can't give you much time.

I'm a foreigner,
so how will my insurance work?

Give me a moment, sir.

I'm here to see Dr. Mo Eun-sun.

She'll know if you mention the name
Detective Park Sang-yun.

-Okay. Hold on.
-Okay.

Dr. Mo, we have Detective Park Sang-yun
here to see you.

I see. Okay.

And what should we do with Mr. Jaden?

Okay, understood.

Dr. Mo says you can just leave.

I love Korea and its hospitality.

-This way.
-Okay.

A detective?

Hey, Dr. Mo rejected the offer.

Let's take care of it before we leave.

Please come in.

It's been a while.

I've been keeping up with the news.

You have your hands full.

I'm here to confirm something.

I'll confirm it for you
if it's something I know.

It's about the two billion won
you invested in Dr. Choi Jin-tae.

I'll let you know about that
through my attorney.

The Genius Child Project.

What are you talking about?

I've seen the recent reviews
of your hospital, and apparently,

you weren't accepting patients
for a few days without prior notice.

Do I have to share
my personal schedule as well?

If it's related to this case, then yes.

I want to know the connection
between this bizarre kidnapping case

and the Genius Child Project.

I'm here to ask for help.

It's not something I can answer.

I can only answer you
on things that I know.

What is the Genius Child Project?

Dr. Choi always researched
things others didn't.

Regarding the topic of the research,

I don't think it's right
for me to discuss that

since the person in charge of it
is no longer alive.

You can ask questions
through my attorney from now on.

Excuse me.

I have to see my patients.

CAPTAIN

You worked for 13 years
since you graduated,

but you're still a lieutenant.

You failed to get promoted three times.

And you have
quite the disciplinary record.

You failed to catch the culprit twice

and illegally cooperated with others.

Why did you do that?

To catch him.

This may sound weird, but some aspects
of this case are difficult to understand.

I figured I should dig deeper
into the case

instead of jumping to the conclusion
that the kidnapper is the murderer.

Don't try to weasel your way out of this.

This case has been handed over
to the Regional Investigation Unit.

Do you acknowledge that you caused
a disturbance in the investigation?

What happens if I don't acknowledge it?

You'll be punished more severely.

I'd say three months.

He has to beg on his knees
to get three months.

If he gets lucky, he'll get a warning.

He isn't the type to beg.

He's the most stubborn person
in the country.

But still, he should grovel when he must.

You know being stubborn leads nowhere.

I wonder what the captain got.

I say he got a month.
Ju-hyeok will be on probation for a week.

Goodness, you rookies don't know anything.

Gosh.

Tell me about it.
I was never punished before, so...

Exactly.

You should've told me about this.

I would've joined in on the fun
and made a guess.

-I'm sorry, sir.
-I'm sorry, sir.

Gosh.

Don't look at me with those eyes.
This isn't the first time.

That's not why.

Could you tell us what you got?

I heard you got a month.

Yes, sir.

Goodness. Suspended for a month
and reduced salary for three.

A cheap price to pay.

I'll be going then.

Any plans?

Rest at home.

Bye.

Why is he so nonchalant about it?
It makes me even more sad.

Sir!

Hey.

This is what you asked for earlier.

Thanks.

I'm sorry, sir.

For what?

I just thought you'd be lonely.

Set up a meeting
between Park Cheol-won and Seo Hye-eun.

The device you've reached is turned off.
Please leave...

Hello. What brings you here?

I'm here to ask you a favor.

What is it?

It's about Mr. Park Cheol-won.

I see.

I can go to the station
if you want to question me.

That won't be necessary.

If it's okay,

could you meet him?

Excuse me.
You can't watch inappropriate videos here.

You look like a high schooler,
so knock it off and just play games.

Okay. I'm sorry.

Gosh, that loser.

Does he think he owns this place?

Shut up. He'll hear you.

-So damn annoying.
-I know.

I'll take this away.

Okay. Thank you.

Gosh, these bastards.

They smashed the keyboard and took off.

EMERGENCY NUMBER

Here is your change of clothes.

Is Mr. Choi...

dead?

If he was taken to the hospital in time,

then no.

What do I have to do...

to prevent people
from falling into more danger?

Eat up and survive.

And show them what they want.

Then nothing bad will happen.

Cheol-won.

I thought you might want to see her.

I'll give you some privacy.

What?

Why are you only eating now?
What about the others?

Oh, the others ate already.

Gosh, they act like they're so busy.

-Enjoy.
-Thanks.

-Eat up.
-Thank you, sir.

Why did you take a wiretapper?

Sorry?

I heard you borrowed a wiretapper.

-That's...
-Did Park Sang-yun ask you to?

Where is he?

Goodness, I feel so bad.

It's okay.

I did it because I wanted to.

I'll look for an attorney.

I won't let you stay here long.

My house is run-down,

so the deposit isn't much.

I told the landlady...

to give you the money

because I care for you like my own.

Stop talking
like you'll never see me again.

I also have a small savings account.

It's matured,
so you can withdraw the money.

Also, I also got my severance pay
in advance.

You can come out and use that money.

Hye-eun.

Be honest with me.

According to the police,

Dr. Choi's safe was completely empty.

Really?

"Really"?

Detective Park.

Yes?

I got a call from Youngin Police Station

that you've never requested this meeting.

Well, that's...

Hold on. Just let them finish talking.

-Stop the meeting.
-Yes, sir.

Hold on.

Just let the meeting finish.

I'll take responsibility.

I heard you're on suspension.

-Sorry?
-I'll report this to the higher-ups.

-Stop the meeting now.
-Yes, sir.

Excuse me.

We'll end the meeting here.

Sir.

What's wrong with this?

-Did you call?
-Over there.

Some high schoolers
smashed the keyboard and took off.

Goodness.

Where's the CCTV?

Over there.

Excuse me.

Hey, check the CCTV
for the man who just left.

-Yes, sir.
-Excuse me!

Excuse me! Wait!

Damn it, where did he go?

Ms. Seo Hye-eun took a taxi back home.

I'll be taking this.

You're suspended right now.

This is an illegal investigation.
You know this will complicate things.

And if you wanted to ask a favor,

you should've asked me
instead of Ju-hyeok.

Do you really not trust me?

Give me a lighter.

Will you really not tell me?

Tell you what?

The thing that you only know.

You didn't pick up my call
in the morning either.

I'm worried that you're acting alone.

There's nothing you don't know.

Hey.

Okay. I'll be there.

Attorney Choi is awake.
You want to go together?

It's true that Byeol is slower
than those around her age,

but you should be more patient

and keep your eye on her progress.

When she becomes emotionally stable,

she'll improve much more than now.

Room 302.

What is it?

I'll head in first. Give me five.

Sir.

Are you feeling better?

Yes.

I checked all the CCTVs.

You were with Choi Ro-hee
and Kim Myeong-jun.

Am I being questioned here?

Not exactly.

I just have a few things to ask
before you get questioned.

You're an attorney,

so I'm sure you know
how serious this case is.

Were you with Choi Ro-hee the whole time?

I'm well aware that Ro-hee and Myeong-jun

don't have a typical
kidnapper-victim relationship.

You were with them,

so I just want to confirm some things.

I'll tell you the truth
when the investigation begins.

Do you know anything about the experiment
conducted on Choi Ro-hee?

I already know

about where the investment money was used

and what happened in the underground lab
in Dr. Choi's house.

I was Ro-hee's homeschooling teacher.

I don't know anything about Dr. Choi,

including his experiments.

What I want to ask

is if Kim Myeong-jun knows everything
about this project.

Is that an important issue?

He doesn't have anyone to negotiate with,

but the victim hasn't returned.

If the kidnapper
knows the value of the child,

and if he wants
something bigger through that,

it would be an issue.

Anyway, can you defend us in court?

Get him the best attorney you can find.

I can pay however much they want.

What I can tell you for certain

is that Mr. Kim Myeong-jun
kept Ro-hee in safety.

That's all I can say.

You'll have to answer everything

when the investigation begins.

Have you found Ro-hee?

The whereabouts of Choi Ro-hee
and Kim Myeong-jun are both unknown.

I have a favor to ask.

What is it?

Ro-hee is an 11-year-old kid.

If the project becomes publicized

and when people find out
Ro-hee is a genius,

that 11-year-old kid...

will become an animal in the zoo.

I haven't told anyone about this project.

As you said, Choi Ro-hee is only 11.

Listen.

If grown-ups' twisted desires
are what's making her suffer,

I should save her no matter what.

Please find her.

Did you find out anything?

All attorneys are the same.
Pleading the fifth.

I'll get going.

Yes, sir.

Right, what happened to Ju-hyeok?

He's on probation.

Don't scold him too much. I forced him.

Yes, sir.

By the way, who tailed Ju-hyeok?

Sorry?

I didn't tell anyone.
Only Ju-hyeok and I knew about this.

I think our captain looked into it.

Gosh, it's cold.

It is.

Should I get something to eat?

No, I'm okay.

I think we should.

I'm good.

You can go ahead.

I looked into the case,

and it looks like it'll be closed soon.

By the way,

have you found Ro-hee?

I haven't heard any news

since we prepared the ransom.

As I said,

she doesn't exist.

Just consider her dead from now on.

I'm saying she won't hold you back.

What a relief.

Anyway, did you find
what you were looking for?

Here's the key to the house.

We'll be renovating
the whole house next week.

I'm planning to completely transform it
considering that people died in there.

I thought you might want to
take some stuff before that.

What more can I do for this key?

Just make sure...

Ro-hee stays dead.

Who are you?

What an expected place to see you in.

How did you come in here?

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Who are you?

I'm the detective in charge.

You know...

what happened in this house, right?

Of course.

You must be a passionate detective

to be visiting the scene at this hour.

You still haven't answered my question.

Who are you?

I used to be Dr. Choi's business partner.

I got this key from his family.

That business must be related to Dr. Mo.

We first met at her hospital.

I was injured.

She was introduced to me
as a friend of my business partner.

Why did you come to this house?

We invested a large amount of money,

but we're broke
now that our business partner died.

But it feels like I'm being interrogated.

Should I meet you at the station?

I was just looking around
to see if I could find anything.

Of course, under his family's consent.

We met all the investors
associated with Dr. Choi.

But I haven't seen you before.

Is that weird?

To see someone you've never seen before
for the first time?

It's a joke.

Goodbye, then.

-Hey.
-Sir, we received a tip.

A tip?

Kim Myeong-jun
went to an Internet cafe alone.

An Internet cafe?

Did you look into his search history?

He didn't search anything,

but he watched a video
from an external hard drive and left.

A video?

No!

Attorney Choi...

Attorney Choi.

Attorney Choi!

Where are you, Mr. Kim?

Are you okay?

He tried to fill the car
with carbon monoxide.

Why did you come here?

I have to find Ro-hee,

but I have nowhere to go.

By the way,

the man who attacked you

is his lackey, right?

Jaden came to my hospital this morning

to tell me to withdraw my investment.

I refused...

because I have no intention
of excluding myself from this project.

It was probably due to that refusal.

I didn't play along with their plan.

Where's Jaden?

I don't know.

Why are you going so far?

What about your daughter's surgery?

I heard it went well.

Then that's it for you.

You should stop now.

Your actions may put
Ro-hee in further danger.

I need to keep my promise.

I promised I'd protect her...

and set everything back to normal.

I'm going to keep those promises.

Rest up.

She's just sitting on her bed.

She's not eating or sleeping.

Let her be. She'll have to eat to survive.

She'll end up eating.

What about Dr. Mo?

No news yet.

Should I go myself?

No.

I think the cops are going to take action.
Just let her be for now.

What's the plan?

What if you become useless?

This pendant.

Is it just an ordinary one?

Why?

You think this is a key
to some secret safe?

It may be, or not.

But you should pray that it is.

The first artificial genius
may be meaningful,

but without the genetic blueprint
to create more geniuses like you,

you'll become worthless.

When that happens,

you'll vanish where no one can find you.

Go to the port with Ro-hee tomorrow,
as we planned.

The Russian Branch
got their approval to dock,

so they'll be here on a yacht.

I'll see you
when we get out of this country.

RESTRICTED NUMBER

RESTRICTED NUMBER

MEET ME AT SOKCHO YACHT DOCK AT 15:40

WHY AREN'T YOU ANSWERING?

"Sokcho Dock."

Sokcho Dock?

He said Ro-hee won't be in Korea soon.

DETECTIVE PARK SANG-YUN

-Here's your receipt.
-Thank you.

Thank you. Goodbye.

-Hello.
-Hello.

Is Dr. Mo off today?

Yes. She came in the morning,

but she said she had personal errands
and wouldn't be taking patients.

So is she not here right now?

She's probably in her office.

Should I tell her that you're here?

It's fine. I'll call her.

Goodbye.

DETECTIVE PARK SANG-YUN

I tied him up well,
so he won't be an issue.

I'll call you when I find Ro-hee.

No, let's take my car.

It'll be dangerous.

I don't trust you or Ro-hee.

I saved you two from Jaden
despite risking myself

because Ro-hee promised me
Dr. Choi's research materials.

But if you and Ro-hee leave like this,

then I'll have nothing left.

It's Detective Park Sang-yun.

What brings you here again?

I thought I made myself clear last time.

Talk through my attorney.

I met a man at the crime scene yesterday.

I think he was trespassing,

but it was the man I met here yesterday.

I can't tell you personal information
about a patient.

He apparently invested a lot of money
in Dr. Choi's project.

Who is he?

I don't know him.

Goodbye, then.
I have previous engagements.

Hold on.

Is someone inside?

Let's talk outside.

What do you think you're doing?

Kim Myeong-jun.

-Damn it.
-Kim Myeong-jun!

Get ready.

I'm hungry,

and there's something
I want to eat before I leave.

Shrimp fried rice.

What's wrong?

Is it hard?

Forget it.

Nice to meet you.

I'm Choi Hye-eun.

What the hell are you doing?!

She had difficulty breathing
and collapsed.

Don't you know
what state she's supposed to be in?

I said where's the kid?

I'm here to look for her too!

Ro-hee!

If we don't find Choi Ro-hee,
we'll lose her forever.

What are you doing?

I'm so sorry.

Let us properly introduce ourselves.

-I'm Choi Ro-hee.
-I'm Kim Myeong-jun.

This is so absurd.

What if Ro-hee's memories come back,

and they point to Ms. Seo Hye-eun?

Do me another job.

So the kidnapping was to get your revenge.

Dr. Choi's research materials
are in that pendant?

It is a flash drive.

If you want magic, you need to risk it.

Life is about gambling.

Where do you think you're going?

Help me!

Who told you to do this?

Hurry up and get moving.
We don't have time.

If those guys hurt Ro-hee,

I won't let it slide.

Where are you, Choi Ro-hee?

If you keep this up,
everyone will end up getting hurt.

The only way to keep everyone safe

is for both of us to disappear.

If you're going to take Ro-hee,

you'll have to kill me first!

Because I'll protect her no matter what!
