Who is it?

(Episode 32)

- Hello. - Hi.

He's...

Yong's friend.

Are you Yong's friend?

Then you should've called us ahead.

- We have nothing to serve you. - No, that's all right.

Have a meal before you go. Okay?

Thank you for the meal.

Please eat, Mom.

I hope it's to your liking. We don't have a lot of side dishes.

Yong liked young radishes too.

I forgot the stir-fried anchovies. My goodness.

My mom...

still misses Yong a lot.

The young radishes are good.

Mr. Jang,

I'm sorry to bother you at your mealtime,

but I can't focus on work because it keeps bothering me.

Why don't we settle this like real men today?

One of us should give up courting Stella for good.

Lieutenant Cha Soo Ho.

How much do you know about Stella?

I know her very well.

She's the best toxicologist in Korea.

She was top of her class for four years at Johns Hopkins...

Not what you read about her on the NFS website.

- What? - When Stella was a kid,

she was adopted to the US.

Her parents run a pharmacist.

She was the only Asian in her neighborhood.

She couldn't go out because she was scared...

and only stayed in the pharmacy.

That's why the drugs were her only friend.

Can you communicate with her?

Can you carry on a conversation when medical terms are involved?

When you go meet her parents,

can you ask for their approval to marry her?

Stella is beautiful.

She has a great body and is sexy too.

You only like her because of her appearance.

If that's why you like her, you can't handle Stella.

In English, we would say she's out of your league.

Now, you can tell me.

What had happened 10 years ago?

It's like a trashy soap opera.

Are you sure you can handle it?

Yong...

was really stupid...

and pitiful.

Are you...

all right?

What if I'm not?

What do you plan to do now?

I'll keep trying until the end.

Nothing is certain in our future.

Except for that fact that we'll all die one day.

Be a lawyer.

That suits you better.

(New Cases)

Doctor Baek, you're back already?

Why? Should I just quit?

Come on, don't say that.

Give me all of the records of autopsies done without me.

I'll take another look.

Why? Chief Ma will get so angry.

- Bring them. - Darn it.

Give me the picture of this wound cut up.

Right here.

And prepare a tissue slide.

Why is the necrosis so serious with a three-centimeter burn?

This is weird.

We got her medical record,

and she received burn treatment the day before.

Here.

Someone spilled hot coffee on her.

She just got the burn dressed and was sent back home.

- This is even weirder. - What is?

The damage on her soft tissue is too severe for a light burn.

What's her blood calcium level?

It's a little low.

It must be because she died.

Are you writing fiction too?

What's with you?

Where's Stella?

I don't think she's at work yet.

Call the Eastern District Prosecutor's Office and Chief Ma.

We have no time to lose.

Hi.

Did you find anything in Han's blood?

Nothing special.

Do a target-testing for fluoride ion.

It's an emergency.

And come to work on time.

Fluoride ion and hydrogen ion were found in Han's blood.

When fluoride meets hydrogen, it becomes hydrofluoric acid.

It means she had hydrofluoric acid in her blood.

Hydrofluoric acid.

Oh, my chemical poison!

What is she saying?

Wait.

Did someone terrorize her with hydrofluoric acid?

It's possible.

But she had no burn in her respiratory organs.

- None. - Then it must be skin contact.

It's a chemical burn due to hydrofluoric acid.

(Chemical burn: A burn caused by chemical components)

They added hydrofluoric acid to hot coffee and spilled on purpose.

In the process, there was necrosis in the skin tissue of the burn.

Hydrofluoric acid necrotizes neurons,

then reacts with calcium in blood to cause hypocalcemia.

And when the symptom worsens,

you can get a cardiac arrest.

After that, you all know.

Death.

That means she was murdered.

One more thing.

If the acid is diluted down to 20 percent or lower,

it can take up to 24 hours...

for the symptom to come out.

So it can be delayed.

That' enough time to run away and make alibis.

The wound didn't look severe on the outside,

so she was just sent home after simple treatment.

And her symptoms must have worsened that night.

Then she died in her car on the next morning.

You said someone spilled coffee on her the day before, right?

- Yes. - Find the security footage.

Yes.

Let's go.

How dare you stab me in the back?

You should have requested a chemical test.

It was my autopsy and my order.

How dare you interfere?

I would've taken the responsibility for not requesting the right test,

and I was going to request...

a chemical test after the toxin substances test.

A chemical test for what?

Do you think you would have looked for hydrofluoric acid?

Do you think I'm a joke?

That's enough, Chief Ma. Come on.

Do you think you're that good?

Are you the only smart guy here? I'm also...

putting in everything I have for my work too.

I'm warning you.

Forget it.

Did you see that? I've been reassured once again.

I really despise that jerk.

Excuse me.

Do you remember the guy who spilled coffee on this table?

I'm not sure.

Goodness.

I think it's him.

Who are you?

Let's go to the situation room and go through the footage.

Thank you.

- Soo Ho, I found it. - Okay.

Track his next move.

And?

The hotel. He went into this hotel.

Get the address and request for cooperation.

I heard Jinseong Law Firm...

wants to recruit me.

May I ask why?

There's a case that I'd like you to take.

Do you remember my client?

Director Oh Man Sang of Seongjin Group.

Doesn't he already have a dozen people on his counsel?

Oh, he lost one...

quite recently.

We're willing to offer anything you'd like.

I promise that you'll get the best contract.

Thank you for dinner.

Are you turning me down?

I am.

Do you still think you're a deputy chief prosecutor?

No one wants to work with a prosecutor who had to resign...

after he manipulated evidence.

That's my business.

About Mr. Oh Man Sang.

This time, he'll have to...

pay the price for what he has done.

We saw him walking into this hotel.

But after that, we can't track him because there were...

way too many people here.

He came to a crowded place to hide himself.

He probably stayed under a different name...

and paid with cash.

If he got changed and took off the cap,

it's too hard to detect him on security cameras.

There are over 500 people staying at this hotel.

We're going through the list, but it'll take a while.

(An event for our customers)

No, I doubt it.

But since you never know, should I at least check?

Room service.

Darn you.

- Who are you? - Then who are you?

You idiot.

Detective Kang.

Did you do that? Did you do that to him?

You jerk.

Darn you.

Don't get near me. I'm going to kill him.

Hey.

Do you know what this is?

It's hydrofluoric acid. I'm sure you know this better.

Detective Kang, dodge!

Get him!

It's not hydrofluoric acid. That was water.

What? Darn you!

Goodness, you spilled something that dangerous on someone.

Did you think we won't find you if you hid in a crowd?

(An event for our customers: Earn mileage with your stay)

(You can use your mileage for your flights.)

Among the guests who paid by cash,

can you give me a list of people...

whose names are different between their registration...

and on their airline account?

You used a different name and paid by cash...

to avoid getting tracked down.

But you couldn't hold back from earning free mileage...

and ended up using your real name.

Lim Hyun Soo.

Get him.

You were about to fly to the Philippines tomorrow.

And you upgraded your seat by using the mileage you earned.

Right?

Lim Hyun Soo's call and transaction history.

Gosh, look at all this.

Have Prosecutor Eun get us an emergency arrest warrant.

- Okay. - Okay?

I want everyone from Gangdong Police Station on this.

- Yes, sir. - There's...

another thing I need.

What's all this?

Just a moment please.

I'm Lawyer Yoo Tae Joon. Do you have a warrant?

You know your client's eligible for an emergency arrest.

Are you trying to challenge governmental authority? Are you?

Sir, just give the order.

We'll go in.

Let's all calm down.

The warrant will be here and it's over, so let's talk.

Everyone in Korea knows my client's face and where he lives.

He's not a flight risk. An emergency arrest is too much.

Let's keep this on the low. We'll come to your office later.

Mr. Yoo, you did your part.

Now make way.

Causing trouble and ending up on the evening news...

will only worsen Sungjin Group's image.

Shouldn't they be here?

Mr. and Ms. Reporters, over here please.

Come in and line up that way.

Let them through.

Let's go.

Oh Man Sang, you're under...

Where is he?

You said you speak to the dead in an autopsy. You really do.

Then get out.

Let me continue.

The hydrofluoric acid mark you found...

let us to Oh Man Sang.

Get got away before we could arrest him,

but he's a wanted man so we'll have him before long.

- I don't care. - I'm just saying.

Anyway.

Thank you.

When I first saw you on this table,

I thought you were a real nutcase.

But when I didn't see you flinch...

when you were framed for murder,

I realized it then.

You felt guilty, didn't you?

For surviving.

You felt guilty towards Han Soo Hee...

and Kang Yong.

That's why you only deal with the dead.

In atonement.

Stop writing fiction and get out.

Yes, sure.

Everything you say about someone else is fiction.

You can't see inside their mind.

They can just blow you off.

But there's a time when you know.

"That's what it was."

"That's what happened."

An autopsy isn't the only way to look inside a person.

This is what you did.

You cut from the throat down to below the navel.

Flip open the skin.

Cut the ribs...

and set them aside.

Heart, left lung, right lung,

liver, spleen, stomach, pancreas,

left kidney, right kidney.

Heart, left lung, right lung,

liver, spleen, stomach, pancreas,

left kidney, right kidney.

I'll take them out in that order. Keep up.

I think I get it.

How you feel.

Don't lie to your heart.

You pretend to be strong, that you don't mind.

Don't hide among the corpses.

Go and face her.

Before it's too late.

So Hee showed some strange symptoms.

The brain PET-CT showed her brainwaves changed.

She might regain consciousness.

When someone in her state suddenly wakes up...

I know.

I think...

she was waiting for you.

I don't think she has much time left.

Ms. Eun.

Thanks.

So Hee.

I'm sorry.

I came too late.

Cause of death.

Multiple organ failure.

Preceding cause.

Diffuse axonal injury due to car accident.

Type of death.

External.

Father. Save me.

I said spend money if that will help.

It won't help this time, okay?

There's nothing I can do.

- Father! - I said not this time.

I can't go to prison again.

I can't, over my dead body.

Then die.

Hi, Stella.

Are you free?

What's up?

I did some thinking.

I reached a conclusion.

I think this is it between us.

I won't go about flirting with you...

and won't go beyond being a colleague.

I'll stay away.

No more flirting. I'll draw the line.

Can I ask why?

Compared to you,

I'm not good enough.

That's it. Bye.

You're not the man I dreamed of.

But you're the man I found.

I don't understand English. I'm so sick of the language.

Stupid.

But cute.

Just now...

You crossed the line first, okay?

We aren't flirting anymore.

Hang on.

Why must I run at a time like this?

I have to go. I'll be right back, Stella. Stella.

Hello.

Hi. What happened?

A tanker full of oil collided head-on with a passenger car.

The tanker exploded...

and burned everything.

Both drivers died at the scene...

and all we have are the bones.

There are no cameras here,

It's going to take us some time to figure out exactly what happened.

And it's about the owner of the vehicle.

- It's Oh Man Sang's. - What?

This car accident couldn't have happened at a better timing.

My client has passed away.

Why would Oh Man Sang die all of a sudden?

Something seems off here.

Dead men tell no tales...

- or can be found guilty. - Even a piece of a bone is a body.

Did the NFS arrive yet?

My gosh. Everyone's here.

For the 1st time in 3 years,

we don't have any scheduled autopsies...

except for those bones.

The world is in peace where there are no corpses.

It's a day when the NFS has gathering.

But what about Dr. Psycho?

I mean, where is Dr. Baek?

He'll be here soon.

(Baek Beom)

Death isn't the end.

The last story left behind death.

Medical examiners...

are the last people who listen to their last stories.

Current time, 7:17am.

Let us begin the autopsy.
