(Episode 2)

Why aren't you here, when you said you'll save me?

I'm scared to death!

There you are.

Se-young?

Se-young!

I understand, but still…!

That's just no way to do it!

You startled all my guests.

I'm sorry.

Uh, please tell him that I'm sorry.

We're extremely sorry.

We had an emergency call…

Even if you did,

you can't just barge in like this!

We're extremely sorry.

We're extremely sorry!

That's probably the sound coming from a shishi-odoshi.

That ryokan with the Yaksa…

I'm sure there's a shishi-odoshi, which is a Japanese water fountain.

Consider it my final gift before I retire.

We won't be seeing each other from this day on anyway.

- Yes, Director. - Det. Park, we have a lead.

Lead?

Yes, I'll join you there.

We'll be in touch later.

(Mori No Ie)

Hello? This is Mori No Ie.

I'd like to report something.

Yes.

Yes, that's right.

Please, help!

Help!

Please, help!

Find a ryokan with a shishi-odoshi, right now.

Se-young's in that ryokan.

Shishi… what?

Shishi-odoshi. It's a small Japanese fountain,

usually found at a pond or a garden.

Ask the police who are familiar with this area.

Narrow down the list for ryokans or guesthouses

with a pond and tatami mats.

Please give us a list of ryokans and guesthouses with

a pond and tatami mats.

Yes, sir.

There are a total of seven facilities with ponds,

including the guesthouse, 'Kaze No Ie,'

and the ryokans, 'Mori No Hoshi' and 'Take.'

There's no time, so let's divide ourselves into teams.

Det. Park and Koo, you take the three ryokans at the top,

and the rest, let's search the four ryokans below.

Update each other as things come up.

You came because you're worried, right?

Here.

Worried? In your dreams.

I'm just here to help you clean up the mess.

The guy's obviously a nutcase, so let's hurry.

Let's go, let's go!

Get moving!

It's become quite troublesome, but that's okay.

As long as you be my daughter from now on.

This used to be my daughter's favorite.

So?

Do you like it?

Why are you doing this to me?

Alright, time to make your favorite - curry.

Mari, she…

'I love you, Dad!'

She died because she couldn't say that one sentence.

What's so hard about it, huh?

Help…

Please help me.

Why do you say that?

You're still alive.

We're now a complete family!

Your mom will be happy to see you.

To see that she has such a good daughter like you.

Don't cry.

What brings you here?

Excuse me.

Excuse me, I'm Jo Young-chun, the Korean Consulate-General.

We ask for your cooperation.

Oi, let's check the second floor!

She's not here.

No answer.

They're not picking up.

We searched everywhere, but found nothing.

What about you?

No luck, either.

Ha… You've got to be kidding me.

Are you out of your minds?

We've been flooded with complaints after

you let the foreign police ransack a tourist spot!

But… The Consulate-General said

they had an emergency report, code zero.

How do you know it's not a prank call?

Do you call that an excuse?

What?

Hey, watch your words!

Someone's life may be in danger...

How could you say such a thing?

Someone might end up dead!

What?

Just as you're making a big fuss to save your citizen,

our priority is to protect our people.

You're the ones who should cool your heads!

Can't you tell whether it's a prank or a not,

when you listen to their voices?

Isn't that what's expected from

a detective?

Well, who is this?

Why suddenly play the good detective?

Look…

Worry about yourself first before you try save others.

Ugh…

Are you deaf?

I thought I gave you a sufficient explanation earlier.

While you're busy picking a fight with me,

time's ticking,

and the victim's dying.

Excuse me, passing through!

What was that?

(Voice 3)

(Episode 2: The Devil Resides in the Ryokan with a Shishi-odoshi)

Agent Jin, Atando Onsen Village is a popular tourist spot, right?

Search the blogs.

Yes, hold on.

Corporal Park, I think you might want to take a look at this.

I found a village guide map dating six years back.

It looks like there were two Mori No Ie ryokans in 2013.

If you look here,

I think one of them changed its name

after a new owner took over.

It's now Shishiodoshi Ryokan.

Shishi-odoshi… It can't be…

Director,

we thought something was strange

so we searched the blogs,

and we found that a ryokan by the name, 'Mori No Ie,'

had changed its name to 'Shishiodoshi' a few years ago.

Didn't you also say that the ryokan Se-young is at

has a shishi-odoshi?

Send me that map.

There's a ryokan that changed its name from

'Mori No Ie' to 'Shishiodoshi.'

I think this may be it.

This may be one of the ryokans we've yet to search.

(Se-young's Toast)

(My Dear Daughter)

Let me see the info about that ryokan owner.

Well, that's…

Takahiro Kenichi.

He took over the ryokan six years ago. But…

He's single.

The owner took over the ryokan six years ago,

but he's single.

I think that is the ryokan.

Se-young said she sees a forest out the window,

and the second floor looks over the forest.

Then there's no time.

Let's go, hurry!

Oi, officers from Korea!

Any more unapproved searches will be considered trespassing!

What if the victim ends up dead?

If you go by the books and she does,

that's also your responsibility, sir.

Please understand our situation.

I beg you.

The phone has been switched off…

What, why did she switch off her phone?

(Seo-yul)

(Auntie)

Yes, Auntie.

Um, Seo-yul?

Well, uh… Se-young is in Japan right now,

and I think her phone's switched off.

Well, that's…

It's nothing.

I'll call you back later.

Something's up, huh?

Don't try to hide it from me.

Don't tell me… Did something happen to Se-young?

Well, the truth is…

I think…

Se-young's been kidnapped in Japan.

What…

What did you say?

Oh no…

My Se-young…

My poor Se-young!

But our Director and the leader of the Dispatch team is there,

so we'll find Se-young no matter what.

Don't worry.

We're currently tracking her whereabouts,

so we'll find her.

I promise.

Seo-yul!

I…

I shouldn't just be sitting here.

Se-young…

My dear…

No, Se-young…!

(Shishiodoshi)

What brings you…

Well, we received a call that

a Korean tourist's life was being threated,

but because we couldn't get her exact location,

we're searching the entire area.

Threatened?

Why, that's just terrible!

May we take a look inside?

Sure,

but we have no guests today.

Please… come in.

Det. Park and Det. Koo,

please search the basement and the garden.

As for us, we'll take the first and the second floors.

Not here.

So you like taking photographs.

But I don't see any photos of your family.

My guests are my family.

Besides, I'm not married by choice.

What are you doing?

Why are you busy chatting, instead of finding the girl you're after?

Bring that girl in front of me, now.

Though I doubt that she really is here…

I don't see the family photo Se-young mentioned.

This has to be the place.

But where is Se-young?

I'm sure that owner is the criminal.

His tone was unusually high,

and he'd pause after each syllable in an ostentatious manner.

His lips were curled up into a smile,

but his eyes weren't smiling at all.

And in each of his photos with his guests,

he looked like a different person.

An obsessive-compulsive and a dominating character,

who believes only what he wants to believe…

Oi, Team Golden Time!

Time to stop playing cop.

What do we do? We don't have enough time.

What do you mean, what do we do?

We need to get that bastard.

She's not here.

I think we got it wrong.

If you're done messing around,

time to hole up at your Consulate-General as promised.

Get what wrong?

It's obvious you took a quick browse and missed her.

Pardon?

Excuse me, Det. Doh.

But that was pretty harsh.

We searched every nook and corner of this place.

Every nook and corner?

It's obvious that all you did was a quick browse.

This is why you shouldn't make detectives out of idiots.

What the hell? Detective Do,

what's your problem, huh?

How could you give us that crap?

What? Is something stabbing at your conscience?

Or do you think you're any different?

Have you really been doing drugs, huh?

What, are you going to punch me or something?

One more word from you, and I will! Alright?

Detectives, please!

Please stop.

They call themselves police?

All withdraw.

Thanks for the entertainment.

Please stand by at the Consulate-General, then.

Oh, and you…

I suggest you take more meds,

since it looks like you have anger management issues.

I'll come for you with an arrest warrant, so until then.

Let me go talk to them.

We should go too, Director.

Go where?

We're only getting started.

Is he kidding me?

Well, we're too dumb for any of this, alright?

And what do you mean, we're getting started?

Det. Doh was provoking Det. Ryoji and Takahiro,

in order to throw them off guard.

- What? - That bastard…

He didn't even panic when he gave an alibi.

This is not his first time.

He even let us parade around the place, too.

That shows he's confident that we'll never find Se-young.

So if you want to get him, find his weakness.

Agent Park, of the two Shishiodoshi Ryokan,

get me anything you can about the owner,

Takahiro Kenichi.

- It's urgent. - Yes, Director.

But it'll take some time as we'll have to

ask for the Ministry of Foreign Affair's cooperation.

One moment. Director?

I went through the disclaimer of that Happy House app,

and it said there you can only post ads

if you have a business license number.

Although the ad was deleted right away,

if we're lucky, there might be data left.

Alright, hurry. We have no time.

Yes. Director.

Mari…

Mari?

Who…

…are you?

Where's Mari?

Mari…

Mari!

Ma'am…

My…

My cellphone, please.

We need to call the police, now.

While the cellphone jammer is switched off.

Ma'am, please!

I don't want to die, please!

There's a strap on my cellphone.

Can you move your foot and get it for me?

My mom made it for me…

Ma'am,

I…

I want to live.

So please help.

I want to see my mom…

I think this 'Takahiro…'

I don't think it's his real name.

What? It's not his name?

No, look.

According to the business license on the app,

it says the owner is 'Suzuki Kenichi.'

In fact, all the documents say so.

Do you have anything under Suzuki Kenichi?

Yes. And he's quite a character.

There's a record of him being treated for megalomania.

By the way, he's a Korean-Japanese.

And he took over the ryokan with the payout from

his wife and daughter's life insurance.

Director, Takahiro's real name is Suzuki Kenichi,

and he's a Korean-Japanese.

His Korean name's Kim Geon-il.

His wife, Suzuki Sora, had been reporting him for

domestic violence five years before her death,

but every time, the charges were dropped.

According to her testimony,

she was forced into marriage after being sexually assaulted

following her high school graduation.

And from how there's a record of Suzuki Kenichi being arrested for

causing a scene about how his daughter isn't his,

but a colleague's, it seems he had

paranoid delusional jealousy towards his wife.

- What? - And from how he used the app,

it looks like he took advantage of

Momi Love Hotel's repeated scams.

By the way, I was introduced to a case at a seminar

about 'reset syndrome.' A father killed his entire family

who had ignored him, then replaced them with

people that he'd kidnapped to "reset" his life.

So he chose his targets while operating the ryokan.

To "reset" his family.

It's Se-young.

Is that you, Se-young?

Help me…

Help me!

She's in an enclosed space.

I can hear faint echoes,

she's tied up,

and she's screaming as loudly as she can into the cellphone.

I think Se-young's confined in a room with concrete walls.

Help me…

What the…

Did you call the police?

I'm sorry… Please, help me!

Se-young!

I was planning to dote on you, but…

I got cut off.

Takahiro's back.

We need to save her, now!

No!

You little brat…

I was planning to be nice to you, yet…

How dare you betray me?

Actually, no.

It'll be more painful for you,

if I kill the brat first.

No…

No…

Ma'am…

You two have become close already?

If someone saw you,

they'd think you're really mother and daughter.

There has to be an entrance that leads to the basement.

Det. Koo, you search the garden,

and Det. Park, you search the place inside with me.

Director Kang, you guard the entrance.

If we drag it on any longer,

it will get really dangerous for Se-young.

Let's calm down.

I'm sure there are sounds that I've missed.

- Nothing. - Det. Doh,

there's a well here, and something's not right.

Se-young! Se-young!

Yes.

It was definitely the sound of footsteps

climbing the staircase laid with tatami mats.

After a total of seven thumps,

in a few seconds, her cellphone went dead.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven…

I definitely heard seven thumps at regular intervals.

Don't tell me…

Yes, the entrance is around here.

This way.

Chemicals.

It's a strong acid that's used to break down protein.

It's been leaking out from the basement,

and has even polluted the well.

That means it's got to be in here somewhere.

Det. Doh…

Director Kang!

Where is she?

She isn't here.

I'm astounded you found this place.

The Japanese police didn't even suspect it.

You're a complete psycho…

What are you yapping on about?

Confess, and repent your sin.

If you've ever been a father and a husband,

this is your last chance to apologize to the victims.

Shut up!

Det. Park.

This is D2. Kwang-su, come to the staircase, now!

His secret hideout is under here.

You just set foot in hell.

Are you alright?

Detective Do!

Are you all okay?

Director!

Are you alright, Se-young?

This is D3. We found Se-young.

Call an ambulance.

Yes, sir!

Are you alright?

How's Mi-hye and the lady?

Ms. Jung Mi-hye is still breathing.

Can you stand up?

The lady here is also fine.

Thank goodness…

Well done.

I want to go home as soon as possible.

I want to go back to Mom.

Yes.

Yes, let's go.

Det. Park, let's divide ourselves up.

- To the top. - Yes, sir!

You psycho…!

You're the one who uploaded that disgusting

snuff video on SecretNet, aren't you?

You lured the victims,

and with the excuse of a "reset family,"

you raped them, and killed them…

So you saw my work.

I just need to know where that bastard that

uploaded the video is!

I don't know what you're after,

but you won't be getting it from me!

Because the moment I open my mouth,

both you and I will die.

Sameta…

So you know about the reset button.

But too bad, you'll have to

die by my hands today.

You psycho!

There's no such thing as a "reset button" in real life.

The pain you're feeling right now is reality!

Tell me everything you know about SecretNet.

If not…

I'll see that you never talk again!

You're laughing?

Who are you?

Say it.

Say it!

You crazy bastard!

You don't want to say it?

Then I'll kill you in the most painful way.

Don't move.

I… I heard he went to Korea.

I'm not entirely sure, but he said he had business to take care of.

Spare me…

Spare me…

You're going to die anyway.

Detective Do!

Are you really planning to kill him?

Det. Doh, stop!

Why are you doing this?

Come to your senses!

This is D2, reporting successful arrest of

Suzuki Kenichi, for the abduction and attempted

murder of Kwon Se-young and suspected serial murders.

(09:00 PM Osaka, Japan Travel App Murder Case)

(Case closed in one hour)

May I ask everyone to calm down?

We'll hold an official press conference to

brief you on the case.

Please go back for now.

You don't need to come.

Mi-hye?

She gained consciousness and was sent to the hospital.

Yes, I'm so relieved, too.

Mom, stop crying.

I can't, unless you stop getting into trouble!

I thought I was going to die for sure this time.

I'm sorry, Mom.

We need to go to the airport now.

Alright. Se-young, let's talk later.

I'll be there soon.

Alright, Mom.

I have to board the ambulance, so see you soon.

- What a relief. - Yes, tell me about it.

Who knew this would happen on her trip?

Where's Director?

I think she went to have a word with Det. Doh.

Man, I was scared to death just now.

The way Det. Doh was beating Suzuki up,

I thought he was going to kill him for sure!

Come on…

It was as if he'd been possessed by the devil!

So you're saying that the mother and the daughter

from Hokkaido who went missing, is also his doing?

The identity of the woman who was found alive

at the scene is Kobayashi Yasumi,

who was reported missing while on her Osaka trip.

Her daughter, Kobayashi Mari, had already been murdered.

It seems Suzuki has been luring victims with discounts,

then confining them in the basement as his fake family

for his snuff videos.

And there may be more victims.

That Det. Doh is lucky.

Oh, and…

I just got a call from Forensics,

and they said they found no traces of

Doh Kang-woo's DNA from the Kaneki Yukiko murder scene.

What?

Find out right now where he's been

these past 10 months!

Yes, sir.

You crazy bastard!

So?

Well, I had a look, and…

The uploader who's been streaming the videos

has gone dark, and it's impossible to track him.

But there's a rumor that one of the snuff uploaders

who live in a ryokan,

has been uploading his work elsewhere.

That sick pervert…

Can we talk?

You're definitely hiding something.

I know you were on the phone

when we got in the car to go save Se-young.

I overheard your conversation, too.

Who is it that you're looking for?

Does Takahiro have anything to do with the person you've been

looking for, and just what have you been up to, all alone?

If you won't tell me, I won't provide any assistance

regarding your illegal entrance and stay.

In other words, I'll stop caring.

I guess there's no helping it, then.

As you said before, let's part ways, then.

There was a black sedan that was watching everything nearby.

- What? - The day of the gosiwon attack.

There was a car that had been spying on us.

That's when I realized,

that the real mastermind is somewhere else.

Then I saw on Bang Je-soo's logs that

he'd been mailing a wooden box to

a PO box in Osaka, Japan on the first of every month.

- PO Box? - The recipient was a Japanese

individual who'd been reported as missing for several years now.

I didn't want the bastard to know I was chasing him,

so I boarded a stowaway boat to Osaka

and searched for whomever it was that claimed those boxes.

To my surprise, they were women.

And they were the regulars of

the top host in Osaka.

(8 months ago, Osaka)

I'll be back. (8 months ago, Osaka)

I'll be back.

See you again!

Come visit me again.

Love you!

They were the brokers of DarkWeb.

(Tomoyuki)

I told you, I don't know!

I'm just a host, how would I know?

If you try to get smart with me the way you do with your clients,

I'll kill you.

Or how about living with a scar on your face?

No… Not my face, no!

I'm just an errand boy.

I simply drop the box off along with the body

at the place they text me,

and it'd be gone the next day.

I didn't even know what it was at first!

Auction Fabre!

They say it's his black collection,

but it's a rumor and I'm not 100% sure!

Black collection…?

You mean, trading of bodies?

There's an Auction Fabre behind Bang Je-soo,

who is the highest in hierarchy of all darkwebs.

Hardcore snuff videos,

Bodies and other trophies of serial killers…

In short, it's an auction website that sources its goods from

those scum suppliers and sells them to maniacs.

Bang Je-soo was a supplier as well.

The suppliers, the purchasers, and the distributors…

It's the ugliest and the most sickly

crime cartel I've ever seen.

How…

Do you know what the most popular item is,

among the VVIP members with anti-Korean sentiments?

Body parts of the Korean police.

Det. Jang Kyung-hak's ear

and Hyung-jun's wrist sold for top dollar, apparently.

I can't believe this.

They're not human. They're Satan!

Is the Japanese Police not aware of this?

We need to round them up, all of them!

Can you be sure that there are no senior staff

members of the Japanese Police among the VVIPs?

I'm reporting this to Commissioner Yu.

Commissioner, this is Kang Kwon-joo.

As soon as you see the data I sent you…

Can you get me more next time?

You know you've been overdosing, don't you?

That thing inside you…

You can postpone it, but you can't stop it.

(Det. Doh's findings from Japan)

He does seem to have grounds,

but we can't accept all of his unilateral claims.

This is a supranational matter,

and a cybercrime against humanity.

Plus, we were only able to get our hands on this much info,

because Det. Doh risked his life to secure them.

But we still can't trust Doh Kang-woo, 100%!

If it's not enough for you that he rescued our citizens today,

then I don't know what more he has to do.

But what's important here is that

he struggled on his own to track down the mastermind.

Plus, his illness…

I still remember you telling me sir, that

as a police officer, your partner is family.

Detective, this is only the beginning.

I'm going to make sure we throw a counterpunch.

And when I do, I hope you're there beside me.

(Doh Kang-woo's residence in Japan)

I only lent this place to him

because he paid for 8 months up front to use it as a storehouse.

Anyway, he…

He's definitely a little funny in the head, isn't he?

Enough with the chit-chat,

just don't ever mention I was here.

Now, please open.

That bastard…

(Daekyeong-gu, Pungsan-si, Republic of Korea)

(One Heart Nursing Home)

Gosh, I couldn't find you at evening worship today.

What are you doing down there?

Come on, come up!

I'm just scared, that's all.

What's so scary? Is it the lightning?

- Because I'm by myself. - Well, hurry up and sleep.

Grim Reaper…

Is he here for me?

What Grim Reaper?

Let go of my arm.

I'll catch the Grim Reaper, so hurry up and sleep.

The Grim Reaper's…!

(Burying Beetle) Doing a good job laying low?

Of course.

The old ladies are a little annoying, though.

Well, stay low.

News is out that Doh Kang-woo was discovered in Japan,

so I'm off to meet Tarantula tomorrow.

If it's about your episodes of blackouts, don't worry.

I'll also help you

with your treatments.

Then for just one month, with the same team.

After the case is closed, don't hold me back.

Welcome back,

Detective.

Just who is this bastard?

(Breaking News: Golden Time Team have arrested a serial killer in Osaka)

The Osaka Police Agency has just announced today that

they have arrested Takahiro Kenichi,

a serial killer who has been luring tourists with

discounted stays at his ryokan.

Meanwhile, it has been revealed that

Detective Doh Kang-woo, who was missing for 8 months

was in Japan all this time, but with no records of entry

or exit on his immigration record. The Korea Police Agency has

come under fire with a half-explanation that

Det. Doh was acting on his own accord while on leave.

Welcome back,

Kousuke.

(Voice 3)

Det. Doh's even set up a slaughterhouse

in one corner of his room.

I see you've taken up a new hobby.

It seems the symptoms have worsened,

and he's barely hanging in there relying on stimulants.

Their next target is Bang Je-soo.

If Kwak was truly murdered,

then Bang Je-soo should talk.

It was Shun who killed Kwak, isn't it?

If you want to know something, do your own research.

Det. Doh.

I'm sure it's hard to suppress that impulse.
