Episode 14

Are you alright?

Yes, we're okay.

The ambulance will be here soon.

Investigator, are you alright? Your hand seems badly hurt.

- Is that the problem right now? - Oh my.

Why would you fearlessly come to a place like this by yourself?

Why didn't you contact me?

Well, it was after work hours, so I felt sorry about contacting you.

Even if you're sorry, you need to!

If you act on your own, ignoring procedure and formalities, and something happens to you,

what do we do then?

What did I tell you when you executed the warrant?

What's the most important thing at this kind of scene?

- My safety. - Someone who knows this!

You acted by yourself.

If I didn't come today, you could have died, Prosecutor.

But Prosecutor Jeong didn't think that it would be dangerous here.

Stay still! Taking his side isn't for Prosecutor's benefit right now.

I'm sorry.

And it's the same for you, Reporter Nam.

Why would you come here alone in the middle of the night, when you didn't know who could be here?

That's true. You have no fear.

The ambulance is here.

Aigoo, at a time like this, who should I go with? It's not like I have two bodies.

Please take care of Prosecutor Jeong. He inhaled a lot of smoke because he worked hard to save me.

No, no, please take care of Reporter Nam. Her hands were shaking a lot before.

They're not shaking. They're not shaking. They're back to normal now.

Prosecutor Jeong's internal injuries are probably worse.

Hey, you're not okay.

No, I'm okay. You're not okay.

Are you okay?

What is this?

Over here, over here!

If you go above the deputy prosecutor's position,

if you go to a scene alone without a search warrant, that's how you become an involved party.

The neutrality of the investigation is highly compromised.

Do you understand?

Yes.

Investigator, but how did you know I was here?

Is that the problem right now? Just stop talking and put this on.

This is for you to breathe, and it also means you shouldn't talk.

Thank goodness. Thank goodness.

Thank goodness.

Thank goodness you're alive.

Thank you, Investigator.

Thank you. Please listen to me and stop making me worry.

Noona, we're going over to have breakfast soon.

I know. I have a favor to ask before that.

A favor? What is it?

Wow, I must have inhaled so much smoke yesterday.

No matter how much I blow my nose, the black soot keeps coming out.

I could do calligraphy with snot...

Um, Hyung, Noona Hong Joo came because she had a favor to ask of you.

Is that right?

Just wait a minute.

Calligraphy with snot.

Can I save this? Sheesh, so dirty!

He must have a trumpet attached to his nose. I don't even need an alarm.

I wake up to that sound every morning.

You aren't shocked, right?

I heard that you see how slovenly my brother is in your dreams all the time.

Yup, it's okay. Black soot keeps coming out of my nose also.

And your brother gets way sexier when he's damp.

No matter what he does, it makes my heart flutter.

If it's too the point of his snot, that's an illness...

Seung Won, you're going to be late. Go get washed up quickly.

What favor do you need to ask?

I didn't tell my mom about yesterday's incident in detail. I didn't want her to worry.

What did you tell her?

I just told her that I saw a fire in passing and reported it.

So when we eat later, go along with my story.

Okay, I got it.

Should we get going, then?

Don't do that to me.

What?

You can't tell me that you're okay in passing because I might worry.

Whether it's a bad thing or a bad dream, tell me honestly. And don't lie.

Do you still have that dream you talked about before? The dream with the green umbrella on a rainy day.

I don't. It's been a really long time since I've had that dream.

For real, right? You're not lying, right?

For real. If I have that dream, I'll tell you first. So don't worry.

It's fine, then.

- So in that phone, there were photos of the victims of the IV serial murder case? - Yes.

Then does that mean it's a person who is connected to Myeong Yi Seok? An accomplice or something?

It's possible. I need to investigate further to find out, but he could be the true culprit.

The true culprit? On what grounds?

In that cellphone, other than the eleven photos of the victims, there were eight more photos.

Hey, what are you talking about? Then what happened to those eight people?

- They all died. - What?

Why are those 8 people not included in the IV serial murder case?

They're patients who stayed in a different room than the victims who were murdered.

They died after Myeong Yi Seok was arrested, so they weren't included in the count.

Patients died after the arrest?

Ah, then they could really be an accomplice or the true culprit.

That means that a serial killer could be walking around openly out in the world.

There's also the danger of an additional crime.

By chance, isn't the serial killer the owner of the cell phone who died in the fire?

The one who died in the fire isn't the owner of the cell phone, but someone who was hired to find the cell phone.

But since the police approached the hired hand, they killed him by setting a fire.

There is a big possibility that the arsonist is the owner of the cell phone.

And there is a big possibility that guy is the serial killer.

Whoa, whoa, whoa... let's not assume too hastily.

It's a reinvestigation, so let's be extremely cautious.

Did you get the identity of the cell phone owner?

Since the cell phone is unregistered, it's difficult to find the owner.

Nam Hong Joo. Last year, you were in charge of the IV serial murder case, right?

Yes.

From now on, the two of you will be exclusively in charge of this case.

Bong Du Hyeon, you stick to the hospital side and find out about the 8 victims.

Nam Hong Joo, you'll stick by the police and prosecutors.

Find out what kind of guy the owner of the cellphone is, and if there were any problems with past investigations.

- Yes. - Yes.

What happened to the backup memory from the phone we received? Did you hand it over to the digital team?

Yes, I understand.

But how do you know about this case's situation so well? This isn't your duty.

Ah, well since I'm the one who noticed this case—

You're a victim of the arson case. How can a victim investigate?

See, see, if I were the judge, I'd reject this case.

Yes, I know.

First, Prosecutor Jeong stays out of this, and Assistant Chief Son and Prosecutor Sin take over investigating this arson case.

Yes.

As for you, start re-investigating the IV killer case with Prosecutor Lee.

- Yes! - Yes.

However, if you go against my wishes, and go out to the scene and such, I'm taking you right off this team.

I understand.

Okay, then. There are two cases, but one culprit.

The two teams must have meetings every day and assist each other.

First I'll contact Yeonju Prosecutors' Office and get records on the IV serial murder case

and request the items that were seized.

Okay.

Prosecutor Jeong!

- Are you sure you'll be alright? - About what?

To re-open a closed case means you're implying that the investigation at the time was corrupt.

Yes, I am aware.

You'll have to question Yoo Beom, who was the prosecutor in charge of that case.

And also Investigator Choi, who led the investigation at the time.

I'm sure it won't be the case, but if it turns out that the investigation was in fact corrupted,

Investigator Choi might face penalties.

At the very least, he would be charged with dereliction of duty.

A worst-case scenario would put him on trial.

It was hard doing it on my own with just my right hand.

Thank you.

- I'm so kind, aren't I? - You are.

Because I'm so kind,

I hope a man like Lieutenant Han Woo Tak would just fall from the sky, just for me.

Lieutenant Han Woo Tak is kind too, you know.

Ow, I'm sorry!

This might take a turn for the worse for Investigator Choi.

Are you sure you'll be able to execute a proper investigation?

Personnel Record

#14 Catch Me If You Can

Prosecution Service

This is a serious load of records.

I really will have to pull several all-nighters just to get through it all.

It's a case with 11 murders. Of course, there are a lot of records.

Chief! Be gentle! Why are you pushing it down with all your strength!? You just need to push that button!

And Prosecutor Jeong, I've been watching you for a while,

but let's just be a little more careful with piling the boxes on my leather seats, alright?

The seats are wine-colored for a reason-! I should've figured it'd be like this, should've rented a car...

Chief, please get in.

You too, Sunbaenim. We'll be late.

Wh-Whose car is this?

A car that feels like mine, that doesn't seem like mine, but also seems like mine.

Damn.

It would've been nice if I was on the arson team with you...

I miss you.

Let's leave the confiscated articles and trial reports in your office.

I'll leave the investigation reports in mine.

We can't do that, Investigator Choi's in your office too.

Leave it all in my office.

You're going to exclude Investigator Choi from the investigation?

Of course! We'll transfer him to the arson case.

We'll have to find another chief investigator.

Sunbaenim, I'm going to go through with this investigation with Investigator Choi.

The investigator hasn't been in contact with others involved in the case,

I find it unnecessary to exclude him from the case based on blind haste.

I see.

I said you can't! Leave them in my office!

Sunbaenim, please!

Hey, Investigator Choi was a part of the investigation into the IV serial murders with Lee Yoo Beom.

If this comes out to be some sort of fabrication, Investigator Choi might really be directly connected to it all!

Sunbaenim, let's talk about that later.

What do you mean later!? If we're just talking here, it wouldn't have been impossible for him to be blinded by his own efforts, and have that influenced the investigation—

- Sunbaenim! - What! What did I do?! What!

I'd rather die than be suspicious of Investigator Choi!

But what can we do? Prosecutors have to be suspicious. It's in our job description.

Being suspicious of the ones we hate to suspect, that's our job.

You are correct.

Right? I-Investigator Choi!

Oh, th-the... Wh-What I meant wasn't that you handled the investigation wrong—

I understand.

It's right that I don't get involved with this investigation.

So leaving these in Prosecutor Lee's office would be the right thing to do.

See, see? Even he said I was right.

Timing and Subtitles brought by The Dream Team @ Viki

Isn't Prosecutor Lee being too much?

And it isn't just anybody, he did it to a partner and co-worker.

- He's so cruel. - Exactly!

It is upsetting, but from an investigator's perspective, it's not illogical.

What the, are you siding with Prosecutor Lee?

What do you mean, side? She's just saying his actions aren't baseless.

You said so yourself. It's a situation where you have to be suspicious of who the real culprit might be.

Then that means if the investigation at the time was done wrong, and the investigator—

Hey, I know Investigator Choi because I've been working with him, and let me tell you, he would never—

Never do something like that?

How are you so sure?

During Hak Yeong's case, this is how you replied to me too.

Do you think this situation is anything like that situation?

There isn't a huge difference.

I think what you said at the time was the right answer.

I understand that Investigator Choi is a good person,

but it's also true that there's a lot to suspect about him.

- First. - We can talk about this later, outside.

It's making me lose my appetite, so I'd rather not hear it here.

Has Investigator Choi explained how he knew about the arson scene?

No, but there are many ways he could have known.

- What other ways? - He could have followed me.

The he would have put a stop to it before the fire occurred.

Or he could have just coincidentally been passing by.

It was a remote area, unrelated to his district.

He probably saw the fire from a distance and came regardless of districts.

He was there before the fire.

Do you remember what Investigator said to me?

And it's the same for you, Reporter Nam.

Why would you come here alone in the middle of the night, when you don't know who could be here?

He knew that you and I came separately.

He was there before the fire.

Why would he wait for the fire to start before saving you?

Isn't it strange?

So what is it you want to say?

Are you saying the investigator made the fire with the arsonist?

That's not what he's saying!

If you just ask him instead of just being suspicious—

The Investigator risked his life to save us!

Am I supposed to ask someone who did that for us, "How did you know we were here?"

"Why did you wait for the fire before saving us?"

Still, you have to ask.

Do you just let your suspicions fester with a pathetic excuse like, "It's rude to question him?"

That's even more rude.

Are you mad?

You know, Woo Tak...

I know.

Woo Tak is right and I'm wrong.

I went back on what I said

and failed to have the mindset of a prosecutor.

I completely understand why you and Woo Tak are suspicious of Investigator Choi.

I understand with my head but my heart...

My heart can't understand.

I just hate myself right now and I'm a sorry sight.

And I'm embarrassed that you had to see me like this, that's all.

Did we just have a fight?

Do you want to be alone?

Okay then, I'll probably be more comfortable going on my own today too then.

I'll go first.

What are you doing? I said I wanted to go alone.

I feel the same way, so let's go alone together.

That doesn't make sense.

Where are the documents for Myeong Yi Seok's ruling?

Here.

Oh.

You're here. Where's Investigator Choi?

- He's working on the arson case. - Pardon?

I'm going to start on the confiscated articles.

O-Oh, why are you saying that to me?

He's pulling a fit in front of me.

Ignore him, please.

I, you see, do not think Investigator Choi is someone who could be blinded by his own efforts to overall fabricate an investigation.

Y-Yes sir.

- Prosecutor Lee? Prosecutor Song is asking for you to come to the interrogation room. - Why me?

She's there for the line-up of arson suspects and she needs a decoy.

Hurry up and line up.

Raise your heads up so we can see your face.

- A witness? - Yes.

They said they saw someone getting away from the arson scene on a bike.

At the very least, among Cho Yoon Pyo and the people he contacted on the day of the crime,

we gathered the few who had similar foot measurements to the footprints found at the scene.

Oh, it's that man.

The far right, with all those teeth.

I'm sure, I saw those teeth yesterday!

They even shone in the dark.

You said the culprit was wearing a mask. How could you see teeth?

Did I say that?

Oh, that one there! The second one!

The second one?

No, was it the third one?

Well, that's a fail.

It's harder than you'd expect to purchase gasoline.

If it's not for the car and they're buying a container of it, we have regulations requiring us to record any person who does.

Was there anyone who made a purchase on June 22nd, or on any date before then?

Record of Purchase

No.

How many gas stations are there within a 5 km radius of this location?

Over 40.

Forty...

Have you been well? Attorney Lee Yoo Beom.

I guess you enjoy drinking warm coffee, even in the summer.

Then again, the air conditioner in here is so cold,

you would have to drink a warm cup of coffee.

Who the hell is this?

Welco—

You sell pain relief patches here, right?

Yes, they're in the aisle next to oral hygiene.

Thank you.

Do you have any thoughts in this moment?

Is there anything you want to say to the families of the deceased?

Is there anything you want to say to your son?!

Just a word, please! Just a word for your son!

What are your thoughts at this moment?!

Just a word, please!

How much is it?

You're Reporter Nam Hong Joo from SBC, right?

Oh, how did you know? Did you see me on TV?

No, I saw you in-person.

"What are your thoughts at this moment?"

"Is there anything you want to say to the families of the deceased?"

"Do you have any words for your son?"

I'm the serial killer Myeong Yi Seok's son.

Of all the reporters there, you were the one that stood out the most.

You were so persistent.

Excuse me, student—

Do you even know my father has passed away?

We know, and we know he felt wronged.

You're Myeong Dae Gu, Seung Hwan's friend.

Jeong Jae ChanProsecution

I'm the one re-opening your father's investigation.

- A reinvestigation? - Yes.

We'll be reviewing the investigation to make sure there weren't any mistakes or anything that might have incriminated your father.

We'll be discussing the evidence all over again as well.

If you were wronged in any way during the previous investigation, or if you have any evidence proving your father's innocence

contact me here. I'll listen to everything.

Thank you!

Thank you so much!

Thank you.

Why'd you buy pain relief patches? Are you hurting anywhere?

My mom said her shoulders are cramped.

I see.

Are you less mad now?

And the whole embarrassment thing? Is it okay now?

Well, more or less.

I wonder when you'll feel all better.

Not for a while? Go in.

Timing and Subtitles brought by The Dream Team @ Viki

Thank you.

Huh? For what?

Just now, I was so scared of him.

What do you have to be afraid of? He's only a high schooler.

It's just...

I was so scared but now I feel better, thanks to a certain someone.

You were actually pretty cool.

You have nothing to be embarrassed about, so don't be mad anymore.

It's hard to think about.

Alright.

I'll let it all go. I'm not mad anymore.

I'm okay, it's okay.

I'm sorry for being suspicious of Investigator Choi.

I wanted you to ask him those questions because I didn't want to suspect him either.

If you just stay still, all that grows is the suspicion.

If you get a clear answer, then we won't have to be suspicious of him anymore.

I didn't want to think of him, not in that way.

I know.

You have a driver? We look the same age,

but you get to be driven around by a personal driver. So lucky.

But isn't that all thanks to me?

Who the hell is this psycho?

Someone planted evidence in Myeong Yi Seok's office, for the investigation, with confiscated articles...

It was you, wasn't it?

Attorney Lee, you have a visitor.

Who?

And I was wondering who it was.

What brings you all the way here?

I want a short consultation about something.

Guess I have to keep track of the time.

My consultation fees are pretty expensive.

I just need 3 minutes.

Go on then, what is it?

Lee Yoo Beom

What is it you need a consultation for?

There's someone I know who's a suspect being investigated by the prosecution.

But the prosecution seems to be leaking the investigation reports to the media.

That's not right. Which prosecutor is it?

Investigation results should be strictly classified.

A suspect has rights to protection in general, as well as anything that could result in defamation.

Are you saying that suspect doesn't even have an attorney to argue even the minute details?

Why is the prosecutor constantly leaking information to the media?

It's obvious. There's either a lack of evidence or something that just seems unsettling.

At that rate, the culprit would be found innocent, so they rush an SOS to the media.

Oh, the Coca Cola bubbles?

That's right.

I guess that must be why they leaked the evidence to reporters during Myeong Yi Seok's investigation then, too.

I thought you snuck the evidence for me because you were interested in me.

But you were so calculating.

I guess you didn't have enough evidence then either, or there was just something so unsettling.

Why are you so suddenly

bringing up a case that's gone and done?

You see, someone filed a claim saying the culprit wasn't Myeong Yi Seok, but someone else.

The news station has already organized a team for the Myeong Yi Seok case, and we've already started organizing data.

It's been 3 minutes.

I'll be releasing a fair article after hearing both Myeong Yi Seok's representatives and the prosecutor's office.

So if you have anything else you want to say, then give me a call. I'll be on my way to you, wherever I am.

You know my number.

Of course.

I'll be going then.

Oh! Thank you for the tea.

Please go safely.

Student, are you here for anyone?

Oh, I had something for Attorney Lee Yoo Beom. He left this behind last time.

[33. Medicine Bottle (Vecaron) 3 bottles]It looks like the decisive piece of evidence was the 40cc bottle that was a part of the articles confiscated from Myeong Yi Seok's office.

Even then, up to the end, Myeong Yi Seok insisted he was innocent.

What did Myong Yi Seok say regarding the medicine bottles?

In the investigation report, it says he said it was impossible, and that the prosecutors planted it.

- Forging...You can forge your report card.

Hyung! My dad's a police officer.

You can raise them bit by bit, so that it stays unnoticeable.

A question, can either a prosecutor or an investigator really plant confiscated articles?

If that happened, it'd really be some twisted soap opera!

Is that kind of planting evidence really possible?

If the prosecutor wants to do it, why couldn't he?

Who was the one who led the investigation for the confiscated articles?

Investigator Choi Dam Dong.

If it was planted, it would have been either Attorney Lee Yoo Beom or Investigator Choi.

If it was planted, it would be Attorney Lee.

Investigator Choi would never do that.

We're in the middle of investigations. You can't be sure of anything.

- Ms. Min Young. - Yes?

Get me a copy of Investigator Choi's personnel record from the administration department.

If I get caught, then I'll have to come clean to the prosecutor, even about how you fabricated it all.

You sure you'll be okay?

Let's meet. What's a good location for you?

Tonight at 9 PM. Your office.

You're here?

Is the investigation going well?

Yes, well, more or less.

How about you, Investigator? Did you catch the arsonist?

Oh, it's more difficult than I expected.

Chief, did you not see the culprit during that time?

Of course I didn't. I was there after the fire started.

Do you remember what the investigator said to me? He knew that you and I went there separately.

If you were there after the fire started, how did you know that Reporter Nam and I got there separately?

Well, that's...

I just guessed.

And how did you know that we would be there?

That was just... a coincidence too.

Investigator.

It was just... what do you call it? I felt like I got a telepathic call.

"Prosecutor Jeong is in danger!" I have some sort of superhuman ability.

Is it because I went to school in Meahri Hill?

What brings you here at this time of night?

There was something I wanted to ask about the arson.

Oh, before that. This, I kept forgetting to give it to you.

I found your external battery. The one you left in my car last time, the red one.

What's wrong? Isn't this yours, the red one?

It is! The red one.

Thanks!

What was it you wanted to ask?

- You said you arrested Cho Yoon Pyo, the one who was murdered by the arsonist, right? - Yeah.

What numer is this gas station?

The 36th.

Hello.

Will you be staying in the office?

I have a consultation with a client.

- You're free to go. - Yes, sir.

The prosecution and police are searching for the arsonist, but it's been a few days and they still haven't caught the person.

I'm doing some digging on my own too, but I don't have much.

I came here as a last resort.

Did you notice anything strange when you arrested Cho Yoon Pyo?

I wonder. One thing was that he had shabby clothes considering he had 10 million won on him.

And anything else?

And the bag with the 10 million won in it.

What about the bag?

Oh, here it is. The 22nd, 16 cases.

They bought containers.

Jackpot!

Did they purchase it with cash or a card?

It says here they bought it with cash.

By any chance, do you remember his appearance?

I'm here. Wow, you've got a nice place. I should let you treat me.

If I get caught, then does all of this go away?

They do say...the prosperous have a lot to lose..

They do say...the prosperous have a lot to lose..

They do say, the prosperous...

have a lot to lose..

The bag kind of... looked like it was for women.

A woman's bag?

It wasn't a he; it was a woman. She got here on a bicycle.

- A woman?! - A woman?

You sent those texts?

Yes.

You must've gotten a shock.

But wow, this is nice.

Oh! I looked into it and it turns out we're the same age,

so I'll drop the formalities.

You have so many awards too.

Let's sit down first.

Shall we then?

What was that text?

Why are you here?

Don't you already know?

But you're a smart man.

No!

I don't know anything.

You're not curious, you just wanted to make sure.

It's just as the text says. I've killed around 20 people.

But thanks to your digging, I stayed out of jail and lived my life.

I'm so thankful.

If the culprit was a woman, it would be her.

Ha Joo Wan, age 34.

Who is she?

In the hospital ward, where the incident occurred, she was admitted for long-term treatment. She had Crohn's Disease.

But she was also admitted into the ward with the other 8 patients.

Then was she not considered a suspect because she was a patient?

Exactly. When the victims were being killed off, this Ha Joo Wan wasn't doing so well either, in terms of her condition,

so they categorized her as a victim.

But why would a patient kill another patient?

Because it's just so unfair.

They took out my intestine, my stomach,

and I was so obedient and diligent with all the surgeries. I was bedridden for years and still, I wasn't getting any better.

But everyone else was feeling better in no time.

And they'd be released within days.

Then they'd look at me and say, "Oh you poor, young one."

"You'll get better soon! Don't give up!"

It was all such bullshit.

So you killed all those people?

You think that's justifiable?

Of course it isn't.

And it's true, I committed a crime worthy of death.

So I gave up.

I told myself, "If I get caught, that's that."

"If they punish me, I'll take it silently."

That's what I was thinking.

But then, would you look at that?

The prosecutor is arresting someone else.

And you're saying that was me?

I realized it then, that finally, there was something called hope in my life.

And that the one who gave me hope, was you, Lee Yoo Beom.

And now, I'm hoping that you'll continue to do so, until the very end.

So? Did you catch the suspect named Ha Joo Wan?

Yes. But it's been a long time since she's last gone to her home,

and she's constantly using various burner phones, which is making the arrest more difficult.

Her credit, debit cards, and transportation cards have also been canceled ever since the arson.

So she intends on running until the end.

She can run but in these times, it'll only be a few days.

Because in times like these, she was a serial killer who was able to roam free for over a year.

Wouldn't she think, "It worked last time, so why not this time?"

So please, Attorney, make something up with a reporter again, like last time.

I'm asking you to grant me hope.

I can't listen to any more of this.

Since when was I a symbol of hope for trash like you?

Why am I trash?

You murdered people! You're a murderer!

What can I do about that?

It's already done.

Of course...

It was sad.

But a living person should live on.

If I came clean, just imagine what would happen if people knew I was the real culprit. Who would that satisfy?

To the families of the deceased, Myeong Yi Seok is the damned one, and he's already left this world.

That was their only form of comfort. Imagine that I suddenly pop out from nowhere.

It would destroy them!

The same goes for Myeong Yi Seok's son!

Imagine if he knew his father was innocent, he'd lose his mind!

And you.

What will you do?

Shut up.

I was so surprised when I saw the news,

when I heard that the medicine bottles were found in Myeong Yi Seok's office.

You must've been anxious.

No matter how you look at it, Myeong Yi Seok was the culprit.

But there was no direct evidence.

The media was pressuring the prosecution, calling you incompetent.

And so you put those bottles in there.

Right? Am I right?

I said those bottles were there to begin with!

Then, why are you calling me a murderer?

If the bottles were always there, then Myeong Yi Seok's the murderer.

Why are you calling me trash?

Tell me.

You understand now, don't you?

If I go down, I'm bringing you down with me.

But don't worry.

The only ones who know those bottles were planted

are you and me, just us.

Up until a while ago, it was the three of us, but I took care of that.

"Took care of it?"

You saw the news for the gasoline container arson, right?

That was your doing?

There was someone living there who knew all about us.

He's good at keeping secrets.

But he had bad luck, getting caught up with a police officer.

What the? You were here?

Yeah, the door was open.

But aren't the gloves a little overdramatic?

I'd rather be a little warm than risk anything.

Hey, I took care of your phone.

I threw it far into the Han River.

And I didn't tell the police anything, so you can relax.

Young Pyo...

Thank you.

I took care of all the dirty work.

So now it's your turn to clean up the mess.

The families of the deceased, Myeong Yi Seok's son, you and me...

For all our sakes.

You know what "win-win" means?

You understand now, don't you? If I go down, I'm taking you down with me.

You see, someone filed a claim saying the culprit wasn't Myeong Yi Seok, but someone else.

Don't worry, the only ones who know those bottles were planted

are you and me, just us two.

The news station has already organized a team for the Myeong Yi Seok case, and we've already started organizing data.

Do you know what "win-win" means?

I need something.

Notice Of Electrical Routine Maintenance For the sake of routine electrical maintenance, Hae Kwang Law Firm will undergo a power outage and we ask that you plan accordingly.

That was a long time to think.

And so?

Are you accepting my case?

Before that, you forgot something.

What is it?

The ones who know about planting the evidence.

It's not just us, there's one more.

Who is it?

Investigator, would you like anything more?

You really are the only one who cares about me, Ms. Hyang Mi.

You're so lovable.

A lot of the meat.

That's right, I'm so kind and pretty.

Why can't they give me a man like Lieutenant Han as a prize?

Don't be like that, you'd be punishing Lieutenant Han.

Ah...

C'mon.

What the... So Prosecutor Lee and Prosecutor Jeong really think the investigation for the IV serial killer was fabricated?

- Yes. - Attorney Lee Yoo Beom and Investigator Choi were in charge of that case.

Does that mean the two of them fabricated it?

- Those little-!- That's what Prosecutor Lee thinks.

But Prosecutor Jeong is gritting his teeth, saying it can't be Investigator Choi.

It's a case where over 10 people were murdered.

If that entire investigation were revealed as being fabricated, we'll be seeing a lot of people get caught in that.

I think that's why Prosecutor Jeong is so desperate.

He's trying to protect Investigator Choi.

Did you get an interview?

Yes. I have interviews with the IV Killer's victims' families.

You said you would write without bias, right? I'm requesting an interview later tonight at 8 PM in my office.

It's a bumper crop of interviews. Attorney Lee Yoo Beom wants to do an interview.

Wasn't this guy the Prosecutor in charge of the IV Serial Killer case back then?

Yes.

If there is a true culprit, then it means that there was definitely a flaw in the investigation.

- Fabrication. - Yes. I got it.

Sunbae, is it supposed to rain today, by chance?

Nope. A five percent chance of precipitation.

Okay, I'll be back.

Prosecutor Lee, I copied the personnel record for Investigator Choi.

Why did you do that?

Where's Prosecutor Lee?

Did Prosecutor Lee ask you to make copies of that?

Yes.

Ah, really. Sunbae Lee is too much.

Can you tell if he's someone who would fabricate or not by looking at this?

What, what, what? What about it? What's the big deal?

Government positions... Ilyoo Police Station Banghak Substation

Investigator Choi used to be a policeman?

Yeah, he knows murder scenes thanks to his background as a cop.

Ilyoo Police Station.

Why? Do you know that place?

That's where my father used to work.

Did they work there at the same time?

Yes, it's the same.

Ah, that's interesting.

It can't be.

Investigator Choi.

He's not here. He quit.

What are you talking about? He quit?

I got back from lunch, and he suddenly wrote his letter of resignation and left.

I tried to stop him, saying he should say goodbye to you before he leaves.

But he said it was difficult to look you in the face, so he wrote the letter and just left.

Prosecutor, I didn't fabricate anything.

Attorney Lee Yoo Beom will probably say that he didn't do it either.

It's obvious that we're both going to say we didn't do it. My words and Lee Yoo Beom's words are meaningless.

So don't mind me or anyone else. Objectively and rigorously investigate.

I will prove my innocence in my own way.

Thank you for everything.

From, Choi Dam Dong.

It's too much, isn't it? How can he just quit like this?

What do we do?

Prosecutor Jeong Jae Chan

Is it Jae Chan?

He's probably calling me because of the investigation.

Is he giving you a lot of grief because of the IV case?

After all, I'm in a situation where I'm being suspected.

Once they start the investigation, it will be difficult for you to take care of yourself alone.

My law firm will help you out.

That's reassuring.

Miss Hyang Mi, don't tell anyone about the resignation letter. The investigator didn't quit, understand?

He's not answering his home phone either.

I'll go to Investigator's house.

Yes, please contact me if you see him. Hold him so that he doesn't go anywhere else.

Yes.

Investigator, please answer the phone. I'll wait for you at the office until you show up.

Thank you for the meal.

- Take good care of yourself.- Yes.

- I'll be going. Call me. - Yes.

Prosecutor Jeong Jae Chan (11), Investigator, please answer the phone... Missed call 12, Prosecutor Jeong Jae Chan

Nam Hong Joo

Yes, Miss Hong Joo, I'm at my office.

I've informed them, so you can come right up.

Notification of interruption of service

You're here?

Yes. What are you doing?

I'm working on the investigative files on the IV serial murder case.

It's an old case, so I barely remember it.

I'm thinking it would help me organize my thoughts if I compile a report.

Sit down, and wait for a minute.

Yes.

Are you giving me the materials as well?

Of course. I'm making them to give to you, Hong Joo.

Are they support materials? Are you circulating them to others as well?

No, you're the first.

I haven't contacted anyone else yet.

I can't promise that I'll write what you want, just because you're giving me an exclusive interview.

Of course not.

Excuse me, we're inspecting our electric system, so there will be a power outage throughout the building soon.

Ah, I have an appointment with Attorney Lee Yoo Beom.

I'll be back quickly, just simply take care of business.

No!

When you get injected with this, you won't be able to breathe.

You'll die as if you're sleeping.

Jae Chan, did you hear? Please.

Hong Joo. Hong Joo, please. Please answer.

Yeongduk King Crab

The other person, besides the two of us... it's her?

Yes.

- Hello? - I just had a dream that Hong Joo was kidnapped.

- Kidnapped? - Kidnapped? What are you talking about? Who?

It's that dream, the green umbrella on a rainy day dream.

When is it?

At 10:30, in 15 minutes.

Where is the location? It was a mountain, right?

It's not a mountain. It's the rooftop of Haekwang Law Firm.
