(The Ghost Detective)

(Two days ago)

If I had known that his business would fail...

Wait.

He should separate books and other stuff.

He lacks attention to details.

This is why he failed.

Hey, stop.

You're going to scratch the sofa.

I told you to just leave it there.

Then come and help me!

My gosh. People are...

Look at how you're wearing your shoes.

Darn it.

People are coming for the sofa soon.

What?

Oh, so you called a moving company.

I'm glad. I told you that we should call them.

I sold it on a used market.

What? Why did you do that? This was expensive.

Darn you.

Why you...

- How much did you get? - I got our belated rent.

We might have to sell my car too!

Why did you go into debt to start this?

Why haven't you told me about this before?

I wasn't proud about having no money.

Plus, we needed something like this in the office...

so that it didn't seem like an inquiry agency.

I knew it.

You told me that it was detective work,

but now you call it an inquiry agency.

Sang Seob.

You told me...

that the government will soon pass the law...

and that the job has a bright future.

What's that kind of car doing here?

Are they here to buy land?

Sang Seob, hurry up and carry it.

- What? Why? - We need to put it back.

- I'll go that way. - My gosh.

- You're taller. - Hurry.

Hurry up. 1, 2, 3.

I don't know about anything else,

but you're very quick with grasping what's going on.

I knew I made the right choice.

I know how to pick the right people.

Stop talking and carry it properly.

Gosh.

Both the man and the woman...

seemed like they'd ask for a discount.

Rich people are worse.

- No, wait. Wait! - What's wrong?

- Put it down! Now! - What is it?

- Now! - Why?

- My gosh! - What's wrong?

It got scratched.

What are we going to do?

What if the buyer decides not to buy it?

Hey.

Let's do the good cop-bad cop tactic.

I'll offer them a discount,

and you can just tell them to leave.

You're obviously the bad cop.

Do you want to be the good cop?

They're not here for the sofa.

Think about it.

They can't fit this in their car trunk.

How did you even start this business?

Hey, I'm Sherlock Holmes of love affairs.

Okay, I get it. Let's carry this.

We don't have time.

I shouldn't have put it down.

- 1, 2... - Wait. I'm shorter.

Gosh, how did you start all this?

Wait a second. I don't get it.

Then why are we draining ourselves...

by putting this back?

Because I don't think we'll have to sell it.

Come on.

Have some tea.

Are you moving?

No, we're remodeling.

It's so messy.

Can you get started right away?

I'm in a hurry.

Yes, of course.

That depends on...

what you want us to do.

These two kids went missing...

on the same day at different locations...

with a 30-minute time difference.

Song Eun Yool, seven years old.

It was around 7:20pm on August 21.

She vanished from the playground...

at Mirae Apartment.

Jung Ga Ram was also seven years old.

He disappeared from his room...

on the same day at about 7:50pm.

They've been missing for about a week,

and the police aren't getting anywhere.

Gosh.

I'm so sorry.

There's just one thing...

we're not allowed to do.

We can't interfere with a case that's currently...

being investigated by the police.

This case isn't exactly under investigation...

to be exact.

What are you saying?

There's one more kid that went missing...

from somewhere different on the same day...

at a different hour.

And you want us to find that kid.

What makes you think so?

I'd like to ask him the same question.

You really need to start being more descriptive.

It's rude.

Come on. She came with the kid's father.

He's desperate,

but he can't easily come inside...

because he doesn't want anyone to know about this.

He might be the father of 1 of these 2 kids.

Neither of them are his children.

(CEO Lee's interview, Threat? Company issues?)

("Meeting CEO Lee Kyung Woo")

("Let's meet CEO Lee Kyung Woo")

It's her.

Can you find her?

I'll be right back.

What? Where are you going all of a sudden?

That's so rude.

I'm going to try and build some trust...

with our actual client...

instead of his proxy.

No, not that. I want what's in your jacket.

What do you mean?

The threatening letter.

A CEO that's never revealed himself...

to the public eye...

suddenly volunteered to do an interview,

and his reason was because his daughter asked him to.

But unfortunately, that interview was done...

after his daughter had disappeared.

But he didn't tell anyone.

Plus, the content of the interview...

wasn't even that important or urgent.

But it got posted...

on the real-time feed of a portal site.

The kidnapper obviously made you to do all that.

If you had no choice but to use the internet...

to tell the culprit that you'll cooperate,

that means you didn't get to talk to him...

but rather received a one-way letter instead.

And he probably never contacted you ever since.

Attorney Baek must've told you everything.

If she told me everything, I wouldn't have even...

bothered to boast.

Where's your driver?

Did he go somewhere?

Pardon?

I noticed that you drove here yourself.

It seems like your wife's car.

CEOs normally don't have those kinds of stickers.

My driver's running an errand for me.

Report him to the police.

Are you saying my driver's the culprit?

He wrote that letter,

and he took your money.

But he didn't kidnap your kid.

How should I put this?

He benefitted from someone else's doing.

Something like that.

Mr. Lee.

Report him to the police.

Leave it to the police to see if it's right or not.

You pay a lot of taxes.

We're in trouble.

Not only have we failed to find the kids,

but there's one more.

Her dad's pretty famous.

If the press starts writing about this...

We got a report regarding the content of the letter,

so we'll check the security camera footages.

No, I'll get someone else to do that...

and let you know once they find anything.

I want you to find the driver first.

Go to his house.

Get going.

Wait for me.

You won't need to move...

if you find my daughter.

I can't trust cops, so I came to an inquiry agency.

Wait.

We're not exactly an inquiry agency.

Do you think I'm a guy who'd trust strangers...

with my daughter's life without even doing...

a background check?

I bought...

this building this morning.

You could've just given us cash.

If you find Ha Eun, you'll never have to pay rent...

for the rest of your lives.

Attorney Baek will fill you in with the details.

I'll be off now.

Even if Ha Eun is found dead,

the contract will still be valid...

as long as you catch the culprit.

We'll pay you as much as you ask for.

What about the other two kids?

They're not included in the deal.

Will you...

take the case?

Sure.

Gosh, excuse me.

These are some materials we got from the police.

Also,

let's say that you have been hired...

as our law firm's investigators.

You're preparing a lawsuit against the kindergarten.

If you do that, it would certainly help us out.

Okay.

Let me ask you something.

Why are you taking this job?

I don't want to move out.

And...

The child's father says that he doesn't believe...

in public force.

I don't either.

You won't be able to find anything.

Find anything?

No.

- Hey. - Yes?

Talk to me!

The punk knows how to use his brains.

Right.

The police wouldn't search the victim's parents' car.

And they have a driver to open the trunk.

Hey. How did you figure it out?

Evidence. I only thought about what I saw.

- What evidence? - He was too clean.

His call histories, his house, his alibis...

He used the father's car to deliver the ransom.

Our only blind spot was the delivery point.

We assumed he gave them the ransom.

But actually, he didn't have to.

You must have been very fond of Ha Eun.

Yes. I first started working at the house...

when Ha Eun was born.

She's like a daughter to me.

So you took her friends to keep her company?

I didn't do that.

Oh, there's an accomplice?

Someone else kidnapped the kid...

and you just took the money?

I didn't do it!

When I came to house, Ha Eun was already...

Something came up with her mom. What can I do?

I'll drop the kid off and head right over.

Hey. Hey!

Ha Eun.

Lee Ha Eun.

She was right here.

It was so strange.

I got the shivers. It was as though...

Ha Eun had evaporated.

(Searching for Witnesses. Help me find my Eun Yool!)

I can't believe...

there isn't a single security camera in sight.

Unbelievable...

Ridiculous...

Find anything?

I need to look around a bit more.

Wait.

What? What is it?

What is it? Tell me.

Can't you talk while you walk?

The mom said that she had looked away for a second.

She must've checked both exits to the playground.

Then the only way to leave the playground quickly...

without catching anyone's eye would be...

A grown man wouldn't be able to fit in here...

especially with a kid.

Maybe it wasn't a person.

When does Ha Eun usually arrive here?

She came after school, so maybe between 3pm and 5pm?

Are there any students who also attend her school?

Yes, there's Se Rin.

Where is she?

Over there.

- Is she the one in pink? - No, the one in blue.

Why are you crying?

I'm scared that Bo Ri will come to my house.

Who's Bo Ri?

Oh...

Why are you afraid of her?

Nobody believes me.

Do you not believe me either?

I don't believe in anything.

So I check everything with my own eyes.

(Credit Card History)

(Lee Chan Mi: Kindergarten Teacher)

(Bo Ri)

What's the holdup? Get over here.

That feels good.

Have a drink.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you.

Very refreshing.

Yes, so let's begin.

When is the move-out date?

I don't know yet. Can we start with an estimate?

I see.

I hope they find the kids and the kidnapper soon.

You must be going through a lot.

It's too late. Everyone knows who I am...

I mean, there are so many rumors about me,

I can't work here anymore.

These parents go wild over a bruised knee.

Oh no...

All your employees must be leaving, too, then?

That's unfortunate...

Those kids are young! They can find work anywhere.

They don't need to look after their family.

Both of my kids are in college now.

What should I do? It's so devastating.

Stop that.

Sorry.

Can you stop doing that?

(August 2018 Events)

Excuse me. While you're here,

can you give me an estimate for the annex?

I need to get rid of that for me to wrap this up.

Okay, sure.

Goodness, isn't it a bit too hot in here?

There's no air conditioner in here. It's all shut.

I guess the laundry will get dried well.

May I open the window?

Goodness, this is way too hot.

What is this? There is a line here.

Is this it?

That's much better.

I'm sorry that there is no air conditioner.

It's all right.

Excuse me. Is anyone in here?

Let me check how much stuff you have.

She wanted an estimate for the annex.

Gosh, my armpits are getting wet.

Let's see.

The little zoo out in the back looked great.

You must have a dog too.

How did you know?

Oh, that's easy to tell.

I saw a doghouse out there,

and your clothes are covered with dog hair.

It went missing a few days ago.

Oh, dear.

Do you think they won't come back?

What?

No, the kids must come back.

Of course, they will.

I meant your dog.

But the pen must have been shut.

It was closed.

Bo Ri doesn't use doors.

There's a hole that she made in the ground.

She came back a few times before...

after she went missing.

Wait, is the dog a shepherd by any chance?

They can't have a shepherd in a kindergarten.

It'll scare kids.

Yes.

It was a dog that the director had.

But Bo Ri is a nice dog.

She's trained well,

and the kids loved her.

Right? It is a shepherd.

See? I knew it.

I had a feeling.

I asked you because one of my friends...

Hey, you know who Myung Sik is, right?

Come on, Myung Sik from the Chinese restaurant.

Oh, Myung Soo's brother, Myung Sik?

Yes, Myung Sik.

Myung Sik... I mean, my friend...

recently saw a shepherd on the streets.

If you tell me exactly when you lost her,

I'll ask him...

where he saw the dog.

He delivers food, so he knows all about the town.

Right?

It was a day before...

the kids went missing.

Gosh, that was like a sauna.

That was really hot.

Goodness, these are probably expensive.

She was right. There is a hole.

Is this important?

Don't you think something is weird?

She said the dog always went...

in and out through this hole.

And she was out of it because of the kids.

Why did she put away the feed and water?

She seems really suspicious.

Right?

She seems really similar to her.

She's very harsh, cold-hearted,

and selfish.

Similar to whom?

My aunt.

When I was a kid,

I thought my aunt could murder me.

I had the same thought when I saw the director.

You know that my sixth sense is excellent.

And she takes the advantage of...

that young teacher just because she lives here.

Ms. Lee's alibi is...

that she was working overtime.

Her room was fully air conditioned,

but that room didn't even have a fan.

Why are you going in there?

Then why did she abduct the kids?

If she was after money,

she could have just went with Ha Eun.

Why did she take three kids?

Do you think she wanted the kindergarten to fail?

Come out. You will step on dog's poop.

Why did you go in there?

Hey, come out.

One second.

The rabbit kept on trying to escape.

Okay, go.

The rabbit is really fluffy.

Angora rabbit.

We'll get going.

You should be careful.

Goodness. My gosh, you're too much.

He has long legs.

Let's go.

Goodbye.

Doesn't it speak?

You don't have to get another estimate.

We're the cheapest.

Do you have any yogurt?

I only sell to customers who buy in advance.

We need a woman.

It looks too dangerous...

for us to go around by ourselves.

Did you erase the part time job ad you uploaded?

A part-timer can't do anything.

We can slowly teach them.

Sang Seob.

What? Aren't you going to hop in?

You can go first.

I'll go after I check something.

What do you want to check?

You know, the crying girl from the violin academy.

What she saw might have been true.

It's so hot.

Hello.

- Hey, Yeo Wool. - Hello.

This is a new product.

What is this?

Of course, it's something really good for you.

It can cause a side effect for men.

A positive side effect that happens in the night.

You didn't have any.

I gave it to you. You should have some.

Forget it. I don't need anything like this.

It's made with organic cabbage. What a waste.

Make sure you have them.

Se Rin.

Where's your mom? Are you here alone?

Do you know her?

I deliver yogurt to her place.

And to her academy.

Se Rin.

Do you have something to say to the police officer?

Okay, then. Do it.

Now, look. Over there...

Let's go with him.

See? He doesn't look scary at all.

Right? Do it.

It's okay.

Eun Yool followed after Bo Ri.

Bo Ri?

Who's Bo Ri? Is she in the same class?

A dog?

It's a dog?

You must have a great imagination.

I saw her.

I mean it.

Se Rin.

I can't believe you really came here.

I'm sorry.

Did she talk about Bo Ri again?

She goes to the same kindergarten...

as the kids who went missing.

I guess the disappearance was a huge shock to her.

She must be traumatized.

Did you go see a therapist?

If you need someone...

She might be telling the truth.

You can give her words a chance.

Ms. Jung.

Why won't you even check?

Why don't you ask her more serious questions?

She said she saw her.

Get out. Don't get involved in this.

- Detective Park. - Get out.

I don't need this.

You don't have to come here...

anymore.

(Oh Se Rin)

Let's hang out together.

I want to play too.

Mom.

Eun Yool.

She's so cute.

Bo Ri.

Bo Ri.

Bo Ri.

Bo Ri.

Bo Ri.
