Original subtitles

Who did you ask to keep the Tukkata Sia-Kaban?

Darin said there might be another seven-body sacrifice.

I’ve eaten seven.

And I’ll eat seven more.

Thup came back.

- Thup - Came back.

Makes me think of what happened to Maysa, my sister.

If you’re ever ready to talk, you can tell me.

I’d rather start over with you again.

Mr. Thamawat Santasakon.

You’re under arrest for joint murder.

So this is what you want?

Move.

Sorry, Inspector.

Inspector King ordered that

no unrelated personnel may visit the suspect.

Especially…

Inspector Singha.

Why can’t I get in?

I’ve been on this case from the start.

Please don’t make this hard for me, Inspector.

I don’t want to get punished.

You want him yelling at you later,

or me yelling at you now, huh?

Oops.

Uh… I was just taking a break.

I’ll go to the restroom for ten minutes.

As for this part…

I’ll leave it to you, Inspector.

Are you okay?

I’m fine.

Does it hurt?

It’s nothing.

How did you even get in here?

I heard Inspector King banned all visits.

I’ve got my ways.

Did he force you? Or hurt you?

You don’t have to worry.

No one would dare do anything that out in the open.

A case like this has too many eyes watching.

You don’t know King and his guys well enough.

They’re the last people you can trust.

Hang in there.

I’m working on getting you out.

I’m really okay… you know.

Just believe in me.

Believe I didn’t do it,

What are you talking about?

If I didn’t believe in you…

why would I be doing all this?

I’ll get you out of here. No matter what.

Didn’t I make myself clear?

No one goes in.

Don’t blame Goh for this.

I came in on my own.

And if you’ve got something to say, say it to my face.

Don’t take it out on others.

Why the hell would I have a problem with my team?

But from now on,

I’ll assign guards here around the clock.

No one gets in. I don’t care who they are.

Follow proper protocol, Inspector.

This is a major case.

People are watching.

Someone like me,

I always do what’s right.

Save that for telling yourself.

(Goddess Bless You From Death)

P'Sing, are you okay?

If I’m not, what can I do?

What do we do with the team now?

Our spiritual advisor suddenly became the prime suspect.

You really think Thup did it?

I don’t think that at all.

If he were the killer, he would’ve fled long ago.

Why would he stay and help us investigate?

Then we need to find the real killer.

What about Ta Khuean? How is he?

I checked his financial records.

The money he used to buy the house and the car,

all of it,

came from donations from Santi Tham House.

So the most we can charge him with is embezzlement.

Not murder.

And if Ta Khuean really is the killer,

what would be his motive?

I’d like to report a missing person.

- You can’t go in, ma’am. - Please calm down.

You can’t go in.

You need to file the report at your local station first.

- Please calm down. - Entry is not allowed.

- What’s going on? - She can’t enter, sir.

My grandson is missing.

It’s been two days. I can’t reach him.

I told her to report it at the local station, but she won’t listen.

I did.

- But nothing has moved forward. - How about this,

Write down your grandson’s name.

I’ll coordinate with the local police right away.

If there’s any progress, I’ll contact you.

All right.

His name is Natee Rungbariwan.

Don’t worry.

I’ll follow up right away.

Yes, yes. Thank you so much.

- Thank you. - This way, ma’am.

- Yes, yes. - This way.

Take care of it.

- Mek. - Yes?

Thup.

P’Sing asked me to look after you.

Here.

This is all I can do.

Thank you so much.

Mm.

I’ve never asked you for anything.

But if you really are sacred,

please protect Thup.

He’s a good person.

And he didn’t do anything wrong.

It’s happening again.

It’s happening.

It’s happening.

It’s happening.

You? Renting a Thao Wessuwan statue?

I can’t believe it.

I just wanted you to feel at ease.

Or you don’t want it?

I can return it right now.

I want it.

I asked around.

They said Thao Wessuwan,

he’s the one who wards off evil.

Spirits. Ghosts.

So you won’t have to be scared.

Sey.

Where are you going?

Sey.

I’ve eaten seven.

And I’ll eat seven more.

Hey,

Hey, wake up.

Hey.

You okay?

Sey… is that really you?

Yeah.

It’s me.

What’s wrong?

Nightmare?

I don’t think it was just a nightmare.

It was a warning.

Huh?

I…

I dreamed that,

I was taken for a ritual.

I was hung on a tree, just like the body we opened.

Calm down.

It was just a dream.

Don’t overthink it.

But it felt so real, man.

That ghost’s voice I heard,

it’s still echoing in my head.

If I really am the killer’s next target,

what the hell am I supposed to do, Sey?

You need to stay focused.

You’ve got me here.

I won’t let anyone hurt you.

Don’t be scared.

- Uh… hello. - Hello.

Sorry to interrupt. I’m Niti.

These are for…

your room. All of it.

Buying this much,

you trying to bury my room with it?

Guess I’m stressed.

Ended up clicking too much.

It’s fine.

Something wrong?

Pass me the cutter.

Why?

Wrong item?

Maybe I ordered too much.

So they threw in extras.

With this much stuff,

they should’ve added ten more things.

You’re early today.

You think you can visit the suspect?

Stay out of my business.

Go work for the taxpayers.

You assigned guards to watch that kid last night.

Why? You care about him that much?

Just because I don’t say it,

doesn’t mean I don’t know.

All of this… is your doing.

You ordered someone to plant drugs on Thup, didn’t you?

Inspector.

Do you have any proof?

I’ve been to his room.

There wasn’t a single pill you mentioned.

Anyone can see it’s your handiwork.

Your father told you to do it, didn’t he?

Whatever I do is my business.

But this case will close under my name.

Unless you beg,

or crawl back to me.

Then maybe I’ll think about letting that kid go.

I’m not selling myself out over something this small.

I’ll catch the real killer. No matter what.

And you,

stay out of my way.

I’m sorry.

Why are you sorry?

You didn’t do anything wrong.

If I’d just swallowed my pride with King a bit more,

you’d be out by now.

If you have to bow to Inspector King,

I’d rather stay in jail.

Don’t joke like that.

If I don’t get you out,

you’re definitely doing long time.

So what,

you’re really giving in to Inspector King?

So I can start preparing myself?

For years behind bars,

or maybe even execution.

For killing seven people.

You really dare say that?

Pretty bold, aren’t you.

I’m not being bold.

I just know,

you’d never leave me like this.

Am I right?

I may talk big,

but you need to catch the killer fast.

I want to sleep in my own bed again.

I know. Don’t tell me.

Yeah? What is it?

P’Sing.

Can you bring the team to the scene?

I found a crucial piece of evidence.

It might clear Thup from the case.

Yeah, we’re coming.

Local police reported a murder discovered at dawn.

The victim is Natee Rungbariwan.

His name is Natee Rungbariwan.

The missing nephew.

P’Sing.

There’s something in the details,

that might connect to our case.

What details, Sey?

Better if you see it yourself.

The killer did everything to the victim,

exactly like the Seven-Tree murders.

But the killer didn’t finish.

Why?

They probably lured him here last night.

He must’ve struggled during the stitching.

Then ran off this way.

Judging by the marks on the neck,

he was strangled until he couldn’t breathe.

Inspector.

Here’s the clip recorded at the scene.

Hey! What are you doing, stop!

Send it to the analysis teams now.

Yes, sir.

I’ll send people to pull more CCTV around the area.

Think it’s a copycat?

The details,

the way it was done,

match the construction-site murder.

Looks like the real killer.

But he rushed it,

and someone probably saw him.

Didn’t you say this only happens every five years?

It hasn’t even been that long. Why again?

I don’t know.

But one thing’s clear,

a murder done like this

means the main suspect you arrested

isn’t the real killer.

So you should release Thup already.

Bet you’re thrilled.

Thrilled my ass, someone died.

Focus on catching the real one, man.

So no one else ends up dead.

Here you go, dear.

Want some water?

Auntie.

Oh?

You’re the one who came asking the other day.

You’re a police officer?

Where’s Ta Khuean, Auntie?

Oh, Ta Khuean,

he hasn’t been here for days.

Doesn’t pick up my calls either.

Auntie.

Have you seen this man?

Has he ever come here?

I don’t recognize him.

Definitely not one of Master Soon’s pupils.

Please take a good look.

Here.

I really don’t know him.

If he came here often,

I’d remember his face.

Here.

Take it back, dear.

What?

Didn’t you say we needed to check here?

If it’s the same case,

everyone who died should link back here.

But it turns out like this.

Makes him harder to track.

Ko, send people to pull CCTV around here for me.

Every road connected to Santi Tham House.

I’ll have someone check Ta Khuean’s place.

I want to know where he was when it happened.

Mom, who are the police arresting?

We’re not arresting anyone.

Just asking for information.

Have you ever seen this man?

That’s… the ice delivery guy.

But someone else has been delivering for a week.

Which shop? Do you have their number?

Oh, Natee, right?

Yeah, he delivered our supplies.

He drops stuff here a lot, and drinks there often.

Natee delivers ice.

Mostly works with Ta Khuean.

Gets drunk and brags about making money with Ta Khuean.

By living off traders at Santi Tham House.

Contact Ta Khuean’s relatives yet?

He has none.

His wife and kid are dead.

Nothing to do with Ta Khuean.

Mek.

When was Natee born?

Sunday.

Why?

But the spirit told me

it ate seven.

And will eat seven more.

Wednesday.

Wednesday.

Wednesday.

My birthday.

Darin was born Wednesday.

And today’s Sunday.

I’m telling you.

It’s starting again.

You think the killer’s completing all seven days?

I don’t think so.

But it’s possible.

If the killer’s the same person.

They’re finding seven new sacrifices.

(Special Investigation Unit)

Tell me.

How something this insane happened.

Simple, Commander.

Means the man Inspector King arrested

wasn’t the real culprit.

And the evidence Inspector King used on Thup,

like the GHB,

likely wasn’t his.

Inspector.

So…

Thup’s staying at P'Singha’s house now.

I can get into his old rental room.

Handle it for me.

I just followed orders to close the case fast.

Thamawat was the most suspicious.

- But he wasn’t. - Stop.

Your father sent you.

I respect him.

But you can’t do this.

I think it’s best

you adjust your approach a little.

Understood.

Did I say you could sit?

This is my house.

Not yours.

So why’d you call me here?

Just to yell at me?

Why? Such a small case,

and it still won’t close.

Even with a suspect already.

Just wrap it up.

If it’s that easy,

do it yourself.

Why send me?

I sent you

so you’d earn credit.

Not embarrass me like this.

I followed you and planted the drugs on Thamawat.

But he isn’t the culprit.

We should focus on the real one.

Who asked for your opinion?

Oh, right.

You think you’re big now, huh?

In this field,

no one knows better than me.

Over something this small?

Others do far worse.

I’ve crossed lines for you so many times.

But I don’t want to be looked down on anymore.

I want to be a real cop.

Not someone’s puppet.

Just a moment working close

to that stray mutt,

and you’re acting like him now.

Who do you mean?

Who else.

That Inspector Singha.

He got you thinking you’re suddenly stronger, huh?

Want me to show you how I cut a chicken for a monkey again?

This time I’ll get him removed from service.

Wanna try?

Hey.

What’s wrong?

Back’s a bit sore.

Didn’t sleep well there.

Here, take your shirt off.

Shirt off.

Are you about to do something to me?

Do what?

I’m putting balm on.

Or you want pain like this?

Fine.

Come on, I’ll help.

Will this ever finish?

Come.

What?

Turn around.

Come here.

Thanks.

And…

when you weren’t there when I got released,

you were doing this?

Why.

Didn’t like it?

I did.

But…

means I don’t get to sleep upstairs anymore?

It’s not that you can’t sleep upstairs.

I’m moving down here.

To watch you.

Why.

The tent fits many.

Heh, I already fill it alone.

Come.

I’ll show you.

Well?

Full enough?

If you want to trick me into the tent, just say so.

I’m not tricking you.

But if I told you straight,

would you come in?

I’ll do anything P'Sing tells me to.

I’m a good boy.

P’, what are you doing?

Sorry, the number you have dialed is unavailable.

(Singha)

(Calling Singha)

Sorry, the number you have dialed is unavailable.

Uh, P'Singha.

I’ve been meaning to ask you.

Why do you live here alone?

Where is everyone else?

Everyone else,

meaning who?

Well…

in your house,

there are photos of your mom and sister.

No one lives here.

My sister’s gone.

And my mom,

she chose to live somewhere else.

I couldn’t keep them here.

I’m sorry, P'Singha.

If I made you uncomfortable.

No.

My sister,

she had something like you.

She could see spirits like me?

Yeah.

Back then I didn’t believe her.

She asked me to help.

But I didn’t.

Because I didn’t believe her.

I let my sister…

die just like that.

But it’s been a long time.

Now I…

can live alone.

The past is the past.

Yes, P'Singha.

The past is the past.

I don’t know what you faced.

But you’ll never let me die too.

And I,

will never leave you.

You’re up early today.

And you, why are you up?

I was going to give alms.

And buy breakfast for you.

Want to go together?

Okay.

I’ll shower first.

And don’t forget to use this too.

A rough cop like me needs this?

Of course.

Cops should take care of themselves too.

When you go meet people,

and they see your handsome face,

they’ll cooperate more.

Handsome face.

Okay.

I’ll try it.

And…

you waking up early like this,

something wrong?

I dreamed of Maysa.

Maybe because you talked about her yesterday.

Or…

maybe she misses you.

If you’re uneasy,

want to make merit for her?

I’ll take you then.

Have you ever done it?

Never.

I don’t know if merit even reaches her.

So I never did it.

No one can know.

But at least,

the one doing it feels better.

Okay.

I’ll do it.

Then…

let’s go to the temple I gave alms at.

I have a place in mind.

It’s really peaceful here.

Feels like a meditation place for sure.

How’d you know this place?

This is my mom.

Hello.

Hello, dear.

Coming all the way here today,

is something wrong?

I met someone who sees like Maysa, Mom.

Thank you, Thup,

for bringing my son.

Came to make merit.

Since getting here,

haven’t seen Singha’s face at all.

I didn’t bring P'Singha here.

Last night P'Singha dreamed of Maysa,

so wanted to come feel at ease.

But without Thup,

Singha wouldn’t believe any of this.

I really want Singha to let go,

that he wasn’t at fault for his brother’s death.

But it’s hard.

Hope I’m not crossing a line.

You staying here,

it isn’t because you’re mad at P'Singha, right.

Singha probably thinks so.

But I’m here

because I have to be.

Thup, can you promise me,

that you’ll stay and look after P'Singha.

Why say something like that.

Soon,

there may be something dangerous coming for Singha.

Even if I still don’t know what it is,

I’m certain

that what’s coming...

There must be a reason for it.

Your gift, Thup,

it could help Singha.

Yes, Mae.

I’ll look after P'Singha myself.

Please don’t worry.

Thank you, dear.

I’ll head back now, Mae.

May the holy spirits

shield and protect my child,

keeping all harm away.

Bringing only peace and growth.

Wherever you go,

may you be safe, my child.

Yes, thank you.

Take care of yourself, dear.

Yes.

Thup, sure you’re not heading home first.

I’m not.

I promised your Mae I’d look after you.

Why would you look after me.

Forgot I’m a cop.

And you’re clear of this case now, Thup.

No need to stick to me anymore.

No one can touch you now.

I know.

I chose to stay with you.

Okay.

Come on.

Hello.

Today,

they’ve been chanting since morning, officer.

Nothing the house staff know that we won’t know.

Didn’t you come asking questions the other day.

I’m looking for Ta Khuean right now.

Mm, Ta Khuean.

Heard he wasn’t feeling well,

so took leave.

If the center can tell me

anything about Ta Khuean, please do.

Sure.

Khuean was at Santi Tham House before me.

But five years ago,

the former abbot passed away,

so Khuean...

invited me to take over here.

I saw people here

all needed spiritual support,

so I agreed.

Meaning Ta Khuean is someone who...

handles everything here, right.

You could say that.

I look after the villagers’ well-being,

and Khuean handles donations,

using them to run the center.

Is there a problem, officer.

Right now Ta Khuean

is a suspect in a major case.

What kind of case.

I still don’t have enough evidence

to get a warrant.

But a lot of things point back to him.

As for motive,

likely donation money.

From what we’ve known of him,

he’s always been kind-hearted.

But money, desire,

greed,

can take over anyone.

It’s human nature.

May I check Ta Khuean’s office.

Of course.

Nothing’s hidden here.

This,

did he use donation money for gambling.

He ran dirty money through the center to wash it.

Khun Meen.

The victim who was killed,

was a debtor at Ta Khuean’s den.

But it’s strange.

Killing someone over a debt?

You don’t know gamblers at all.

These people owe millions.

I’ve seen many end like this.

I think Ta Khuean

used these rituals

to cover his tracks,

so no one could trace back to him.

But I still believe whoever performed this rite

was after some kind of power for real.

Hello.

Oh, Uncle Chai?

Of course I remember.

Okay, Uncle Chai. Thank you.

What happened.

Remember what you asked me?

Why they needed seven sacrifices

even though it’s not five years yet.

I remember. Why.

Just now Uncle Chai, my uncle in Sisaket,

He called saying this ritual,

is a dark craft

that needs seven sacrifices.

Because the performer draws life-force into themselves.

Some believe it extends lifespan,

others think

it strengthens their fortune.

But if the rite’s incomplete,

or disrupted,

a new sacrifice is required.

If not, the curse turns on them.

So this,

is what they mean

when something dies under a curse,

it’s tossed aside, uncared for.

Want to rewind and break up again?

Why.

Changing your mind?

Can I even change.

So that means,

the body we found

was disrupted?

Meaning,

someone born on Sunday.

Sey.

must be killed again.

I need your help.

I’m looking for a man.

P'Singha.

But Darin and the kid named Jump aren’t connected at all.

So why were they chosen.

I need to know what he picks victims by.

Should we go to where it began.

- Where it began. - The earliest case we know of.

It happened in Sisaket, right.

You’re getting attached to that kid more each day.

Meaning I have no right to go back now?

Being with you,

and not seeing ghosts,

I don’t need anything else.

(It’s rising, rising.)

(Help me.)

Struggle.

- Okay, cut. - Cut, cut.

- Want to get down first? - I’m good.

(So realistic.)

Really scary.

But less scary since we can’t see it.

Watch how he puts it on, he’s a pro.

He wears it like this. (You wanna hold hands?)

Top can't put it on.

(The doctor’s wicked.)

Sorry.

Why say sorry. You didn’t do anything wrong.

(A little kiss for courage.)
