We found the signs of someone living inside a cave in Mount Songak.

Most of it has already been burnt into ashes,

but fragments of a noble maiden's dress were there.

But, sir, she could have been staying there before she fell from the cliff,

and it could also not be the Lady's.

She is probably alive.

She must be alive.

Did you...

- find out about him? - Excuse me?

Oh, the man who is supposed to be the lady's lover-

He disappeared from Gaeseong after His Lordship's funeral.

Supposedly, he was teaching at the Gaeseong Temple,

but nobody has seen him since.

Find him...

and

bring him to me.

Also, continue to search for the Maiden's whereabouts.

Yes, sir.

Why are you staring like that?

Looking closely like this,

you still look like when you were a child.

You're right. We have met...

when we were children.

Did you remember, too?

Yes.

[Episode 4]

Did I not tell you?

I told you it is dangerous to go outside of the palace.

This is all because of that thief we met at the creek.

What a wicked bastard...

It is clear that he told us the wrong way on purpose!

So why did you tell me to give him the money?

That was all I had...

You left on a journey with the Grand Prince,

and all you brought was just two nyang?

How could I have known that you were going to jump the palace walls?

I thought that you would, of course, bring along a eunuch or a guard-

Oh, let me ask you for some directions.

Where is Sir Min Ho Seung's house?

It is that house.

I was worried.

Someone had come by from the Palace about both of you.

Go to the Palace and notify them

- that both of them are safe. - Yes, My Lord.

We ended up in this state

after being victimized by a thief.

You met a thief?

He was a shameless and heinous thief

taking tolls from people saying he was the owner of a creek.

How could there be an owner of a creek that all people have a right to use?

We should send a message to the government office right away

- and catch that thief- - Hurry up and come!

Mother, I caught a thief.

Whether it be the inkstone that the King gifted you, Father,

or your silver ring, Mother...

The things that have gone missing recently were stolen by this guy!

Wait...

You wretch!

That's right, you wretch! Look at us!

Master,

it's that guy!

The thief we encountered!

Do you know the difficulties we've faced because of you?

It was not enough for you to steal from us,

but you would even lay hands on a nobleman's family possessions?

I will have you harshly punished by national law!

Please stay your anger.

Sir, what should we do?

I mean, why would you protect this guy, My Lady?

Save me, Father!

Father?

I'm pretty sure that the Master

only has one son...

How is it...

that you have...

two sons?

This child...

is not my son.

She is my younger sister.

Sister?

Then this guy-

I mean, this girl...

is your daughter, Master?

Why did you do such a thing?

Did you really steal

and take our family possessions and sell them?

I really needed the money.

Do not make excuses!

If you have broken the law, you must take responsibility for it.

Just as the Grand Prince has said,

I should report you to the government office.

No, you cannot!

If you need to turn over someone to the government office,

hand me over.

I am the thief.

The lady

saved me with that money.

She spent that money to save me from getting sold into slavery

because I could not pay interest payments

for my dead parents' debt.

Thus,

I'm the thief who should be punished.

That is why

you took that money...

What is your name?

It is Young.

Shim Young.

I did not forget.

It was the first time I met the Young Master, so how could I forget?

Young Master?

Are you talking about the Sergeant?

I fell in love at first sight.

There is no way.

You would steal money from the one you fell in love with at first sight?

I mean, between those two guys...

I mean, between you two sirs,

the Young Master was still

way better than you.

I'm talking about his face.

This is the first time I'm hearing that my face looks inferior to the Sergeant.

In my eyes, it's like that.

Then, I can just live completely under her control.

All right.

You two are a perfect match.

That will be enough.

Call Eunuch So.

Since I am wearing a eunuch uniform, just think of me as a eunuch.

You wore it backward, Your Highness.

You were the one who put it on just now.

A heart that wants to fall in love. Would you call that love, too?

When I heard that Master's daughter

Min Jae Yi was my fiancee, how I felt...

The joy that I felt, you probably would not know it.

If you ask how I could love my fiancee that our family set up for us,

I will answer you as your husband

on the day of our wedding.

I await for that day to come.

So come to me sweetly

wearing these flower slippers.

I asked you to come to me like a flower,

but did you run away into another man's arms?

How...

How could you cause me to suffer so?

Rice wine lees!

It is easy for a body that has been dead for a while for its wounds to disappear,

but if you cover the area with rice wine lees and take them off

and wipe it with water boiled with juniper, the hidden wounds would reappear.

- Where do you use vinegar? - For vinegar...

You failed! You failed!

Just hold on a minute!

How is your patience more lacking than the neighbor's dog?

T-The neighbor's dog?

I just remembered.

The vinegar is sprinkled on the murder weapon to find the blood stains that the culprit erased.

If you sprinkle vinegar on the knife after it's been heated up with a wood fire,

the hidden bloodstains are revealed!

You've passed.

You must be happy

since you passed and also beat your master.

How could I beat my master, who is like the heavens to me?

It's just this disciple's meager attempts

to retain my master's brilliance.

Yes, you will have to try really hard.

Since you are not even close to reaching your master's feet in fieldwork.

Yes.

I mean, why is this not coming apart?

I wish I could just cut it off instead.

Cut...

Cut it off?

Do you have scissors? I want to cut this off.

What do you mean by cutting it off!

I mean, scissors...

Are you really a eunuch?

If I am not a eunuch, then what would I be?

Oh, my, look at this guy.

Do you not know that there are certain things you must never say to a eunuch?

I mean, I just...

felt like it would be much neater if this was gone,

so why would-

Right...

Right?

I really don't like him.

He's so insensitive.

I mean, he's in the same boat as us.

You put all of this in the warehouse all by yourself.

We are not going to help you!

Move...

So look here, Grand Prince, Your Highness.

I place it on top of this.

Then,

if you hit it like this,

you saw it, Your Highness?

It is nothing too difficult, I see. I will do it properly this time.

Gosh, so frustrating. I will do it.

It is harder than it looks.

It is not that I am bad at it.

Move over.

How could you complain about this being difficult?

Here, try it again.

All right, get in position...

Hold it tight.

Try it now.

Eunuch Go!

Are you all right?

Make sure to watch where you are going.

Yes, sir.

You must have been so scared.

Are you not the Sergeant?

Yes, Your Highness.

It has been a while, Princess.

Eunuch Go,

I am glad you were not hurt.

Yes, it is such a relief.

I am fine.

Mother, he is a new eunuch working at the Eastern Palace.

Is that right?

Yes, Your Highness.

I am Go Soon Dol, the new eunuch at the Eastern Palace.

We almost injured the valuable new eunuch working at the Easter Palace.

It is a relief that you prevented that, Sergeant.

It was nothing, Your Highness.

He is the Sergeant.

It is the first time meeting you, Sergeant, sir.

It is nice to meet you.

Is His Highness at the Eastern Palace?

A moment ago, he went to the royal guards' training grounds.

Then, I shall make my leave.

Sergeant,

do you know how to play jachigi?

Yes, I know how to play,

- but I need to go and meet His Highness... - Come here.

Please teach the Grand Prince.

I mean, Noonim is good at it, too,

so she could just teach me, so why...

One more time!

Why is it not working so well today?

You were swinging it so well and sending it flying before.

Gosh, hey!

Hey?

Are you sure His Highness really had me pull this cart all by myself?

Then, do you think he would have told me to do it?

Then why do I feel like His Highness's order would have been different?

I feel like His Highness would have said

you should pull the wagon from the front

- and Soon Dol should push from the back. - This little...

Hit me, hit me!

I am losing it, so whatever!

I am tired to death, so just hit me and pull it with me!

Hit me!

Hit me!

Is it a chicken or a bird?

Man Duk! Hurry up and catch it!

Catch it!

Gosh!

What are you doing? Hurry up and find out what happened.

Gosh, these guys!

What happened?

Aigoo...

We did not do anything!

All we did was mix a few things...

They just mixed and exploded by themselves!

Move over. I must go inside to check!

- It is perfectly fine in there! - We did not do anything.

We are the only ones to get a bit banged up. That is all.

How is it that you guys cause trouble every three days?

How long has it been since you destroyed the roof that you are doing this?

Move out of my house!

No, you cannot do that. Do you know who this person is?

Do you think I do not know?

Are you not the troublesome youngest son of the Chief State Minister?

I know him better than you do.

Gosh, it drove me nuts when he was causing all this trouble by himself.

But now he has another weird guy with him as well...

What is this?

Soon, the world will acknowledge my genius.

Aigoo, you did not have to pay me so much...

You should go to the pub and have a bowl of unrefined rice wine.

You must be so upset because of us, so please have a refreshing drink.

Well, just use it comfortably.

Aigoo. They sent another person from the palace.

Is that man in the high position giving me another job to do?

Gosh, as expected,

the only one who recognizes my talent is that high person!

Aigoo... A sword... I should just go and catch my chickens.

Let us go inside.

My Lady...

Ga Ram...

Say hello. He serves the Crown Prince.

Oh, yes.

I recently took him up as my student.

Tell him the reason why you came to me.

I decided to serve him as my master because I heard that he was famous

throughout the land as someone capable of figuring out the cause of death from just a look at a corpse.

That is what they say.

But who is this?

I am Eunuch Go Soon Dol, and I am serving His Highness.

It is nice to meet you.

I am his student.

Open the wagon.

Yes.

I mean, how could you not even tell me that it was a dead body?

Do I need to find out the cause of death?

How long will it take?

I, I, I am Kim Myung Jin!

Since I have gained a useful student,

I will try to finish it today.

- Look carefully at this man's face. - Pardon me?

- Why do I need to do that? - It is His Highness's orders.

Is it someone I should know?

You talk too much!

Just take a good look at him!

I am looking right now.

You also talk too much.

It appears that he was part of the Royal Guard.

He was a herald sent by His Highness to the Governor of Gaeseong.

The herald sent by His Highness to that house ended up dead?

He was sent along with the wedding gifts, but he ended up like this.

Did this happen before or after the tragic events took place at that house?

I do not know.

I heard that they found his body after those events took place.

Next.

Next.

Next!

Moo Ik!

My apologies.

How are you to protect the Crown Prince when you are this weak?

Increase the training of the Royal Guard!

Yes, Your Highness!

Also,

in order for you to endure such hard training, you would need to eat well.

Today, eat and drink to your heart's content.

Wait there and return when you find out the cause of death from them.

Yes.

[Joseon's top detective]

[Maiden Min Jae Yi, whom I love]

Please let this slide just once!

My master has nothing to do with this criminal.

He has never seen this person ever before.

I love that woman.

He says that he loves you...

No, that is not true.

Maybe it is because he feels bad for this heinous woman.

He keeps saying things like Gaeseong's true detective is Min Jae Yi and not her brother,

and that she would not be dead but alive.

He made all these ridiculous deductions

and brought these wanted posters home.

Gosh. I will make sure that nothing like this happens again,

so please let this slide just once.

Ridiculous?

I came to this conclusion from my own investigations...

It is the truth!

Maiden Jae Yi is truly a detective!

He came from the Palace!

Do you not know what happens if you lay your hands on wanted posters?

Come over here and look at the corpse.

What do you think is the cause of death?

Well...

When you look here, there is an arrow wound-

It does not look like the arrow pierced him that deeply...

I mean, the wound is shallow, so why did he die?

It is most likely from poison.

- He died from poison? - These are wounds created by scratching himself.

Right before he died, he must have instinctively grabbed his neck as he struggled to breathe.

They must have coated the arrowhead with something interesting.

- My student? - Yes.

- Make me a nice warm bowl of rice. - Rice?

You ate so much rice soup earlier, so why ask for more rice?

It is not for me.

- It is for him. - What?

I mean, how could a dead man eat rice?

You are going to use the Jeonban method?

Wait, Eunuch Go...

You know about the Jeonban method as well?

It was after his family had already fled.

It is clear that he had planned this for a very long time.

Was there nothing among what he sold that could be corroborative evidence?

Are you telling me that you were not able to find any clues at all?

That is so, Your Highness.

Open the lid.

What is this?

It is animal blood.

Why are you putting the rice that you put in the dead person's mouth into the blood?

Even though I already have the answer,

I should check one last time.

Gosh.

What do I do?

It is so clear that it was death by poison.

How is it that it is perfectly aligned with what I had expected, Myung Jin?

Myung Jin, you are a genius!

Myung Jin, you are for sure a genius!

You are right. Master, you are really a genius.

Is it truly death by poison?

Please tell the Crown Prince it is the same poison from a year ago.

It is amur viper poison.

Only one poison makes one's blood coagulate and causes one's body to petrify to death.

It is amur viper poison.

How is life at the Eastern Palace?

I was so shocked earlier.

I would have never imagined that you would be at Manyeondang.

I could not just sit around doing nothing while waiting for you to come back, Lady...

You are going through a lot because of me.

- I am sorry. - As long as you are okay, Lady,

it does not matter what happens to me.

I do not take your dedication and obedience for granted.

Thank you.

I also do not take how you worry and care about me for granted.

You have never looked down on me or beat me.

You have always treated me as a human being.

I have also been so grateful to you all this time.

Oh, right. Did you ever see that herald in Gaeseong?

When I heard that earlier, I was so shocked.

What in the world is going on...

I mean, how could the herald sent by the Crown Prince also die?

And at Gaeseong at that...

Did you just say that it was amur viper poison?

He said that it was the same poison that you were hit by a year ago.

What does that mean?

If it was the poison from a year ago...

Was the poison on the arrow that hit you also amur viper poison?

Did you see the man's face?

I have never seen him before.

Did it happen on the way back to the palace?

If you received the wedding present,

it was probably on the way back.

What was the wedding present?

It was six rolls of silk and rice paper.

But...

the secret letter was included with the present.

You did not include the secret letter,

but it was found with the present because...

The herald you sent died on his way to the house.

And someone else came to our house.

He slipped in the letter you did not write inside the present.

That face...

I definitely saw it.

I definitely saw it, but...

Mother!

- Father! - Pull yourself together, My Lady!

Please!

But I cannot seem to remember.

Everything got jumbled up.

I understand...

how you feel.

I cannot remember well the year

my brother passed as well.

Father was...

concerned about Your Highness.

Because Crown Prince Ui Hyeon passed away and you took his position,

Father said your loneliness and pain

cannot be understood by anyone,

and no one can take it away.

That is why he was worried about you.

I suppose people say I gave the peach to my brother.

They say I killed him because I wanted to become

the Crown Prince.

Please do not say that.

Father did not believe rumors like that.

He believed in Your Highness.

Are you telling me that you were not able to find any clues at all?

That is so, Your Highness.

I should have...

given this to His Highness.

Their goal must be to train the Crown Prince.

They are scaring him so they can control him.

The Crown Prince is bound to be the next King,

and the King should not be too strong.

If...

Father had a different idea like I suspected,

is this the limit to my loyalty

toward His Highness?

I will step in for a moment, Father.

You stayed late at the palace.

There is something I'd like to ask you about this object.

Before the government official of the department of Taoism who was involved with the celebratory message ran away,

he sold this at a market.

If so...

you just need to tell His Highness the truth.

Did you not tell His Highness?

How come you did not tell him?

Because this compass...

belongs to you, Father.

So you told a lie to His Highness.

Two years ago, when an ambassador from the Ming dynasty visited,

he gifted them only to the court subjects.

The three state councilors, including me, and the six ministers received one each.

Answer me.

Before you were my son,

you are the Sergeant of the Department of Defense who works for the country,

and the servant of His Highness, the Crown Prince.

How come...

you did not tell His Highness correctly?

I wanted to ask you the truth first-

Gunshinyuui.

The King and his subject's relationship needs to be based on loyalty.

Loyalty is not just about one person's will and faith.

Thinking about it now, the reason High Highness does not trust you

was not just because of His Highness' arrogance.

But how could I tell High Highness about it without asking you first?

But...

since this does not belong to you,

I feel no longer burdened.

If you are attached to small things,

how will you...

become a loyal servant?

If your assailant and the killer of the herald were the same person,

could his people have killed my family as well?

What is it that they want?

I do not understand why they sent a secret letter to my family.

If they wanted the rumor about the ghost's letter to be spread in the world,

it does not make sense

that they killed my family immediately after they sent the letter.

They definitely must have sent the secret letter to my family for a different purpose.

Finding out their purpose

would be the way to reveal who they are.

The three state councilors, including me,

and the six ministers received one each.

The Chief State Minister, Right State Minister, and the six ministers

except for my father.

Who among them is the owner of this compass?

Did you read the report on the cases I gave you?

Yes.

I am reading it every night.

There will be a public discourse.

His Majesty ordered everyone to find a way to catch the culprit through public discourse.

Would I be attending as well?

The one in charge of those cases will be the chair for the public discourse that day.

The one who was betrothed to you.

Sergeant Han Seong On.

Will you be okay with that?

Yes.

I will be okay.

I can do it.

I will do it.

My Lady...

could not have met with him dressed as a eunuch, right?

How beautiful, My Lady!

I guess they sell pretty shoes like these in Hanyang.

Ga Ram.

I think I'll faint out of excitement.

I cannot believe a romantic man like this exists in Joseon!

And he would become my husband!

My heart skipped a beat just now.

Wow, my heart! My heart!

I am so nervous!

Ga Ram.

- What could this be? - It must be...

what they call a "love letter," My Lady!

What did he write?

"A heart that wants to fall in love. Would you call that love, too?"

What comes after that?

It is a secret!

Ga Ram, my dear husband is the most romantic man.

Our future in Hanyang is guaranteed to be smooth!

Our path will be covered with silk!

Would you like to slide down the silk path with me, then?

Of course, My Lady.

Your destiny is my destiny!

I'll slide down with you!

When I go to Hanyang to get married,

I will ask my dear husband

to find you a husband first.

Really?

Someone like him

will treat you like a sister and look after you.

He is definitely not someone

who would be rude to someone who's dear to me.

Look at these shoes.

How could I wear such pretty shoes?

Try them on, My Lady.

Look how perfectly they fit.

They are so pretty, My Lady!

I can see the silk path!

Yes!

She was so happy.

Cannot believe she ended up this way.

Aigoo!

The one in charge of those cases

will be the chair for the public discourse that day.

The one who was betrothed to you.

Sergeant Han Seong On.

Are you okay?

Make sure to watch where you are going.

Your Highness, where are you going, exactly?

You were walking around everywhere for about 30 minutes.

Please tell me.

I will take you to that place.

This is my destination.

I am thinking of going back and forth on this path today.

I am asking the reason why.

I heard the Sergeant will be leading the public discourse over there at the palace today.

And, Your Highness?

That is why I am walking back and forth.

Do you need to say something to Sergeant Han?

If so, I will send someone to summon him...

I mean...

It is not like that.

I want to walk back and forth here and run into him by chance!

I want to meet with him by chance.

Sergeant was already at the palace.

What did you say?

Why are you telling me that now?

- I need to go to the palace now. - Your Highness! Your Highness!

You cannot, Your Highness.

- Your Highness! - Your Highness!

- You cannot! - You cannot, Your Highness!

Right? I cannot, right?

Let us go.

Here comes Your Highness, the Crown Prince!

Welcome, Your Highness.

Did you prepare well?

I am looking forward to today's discourse.

I will not let you down.

I am looking forward to it.

Today's discourse was going to be on The Great Ming Code,

but His Majesty was concerned about public safety

due to continuous heinous crimes. So His Majesty

himself ordered us to discuss these cases during this

discourse in order to find a way to solve them.

That is why we are here today.

So if anyone has an opinion on these cases,

feel free to tell us about it.

I am sure everyone has heard about the three

murder cases in the Hanyang area recently.

The first case happened 15 days ago at a tavern near Heoyeonbang

around 5 in the morning.

The victim was a merchant

and he died from a contusion on the back.

What's unique is that the culprit carved a letter on the victim's abdomen after the killing.

He wrote the letter "Song."

The second case happened five days ago near Sukjeong Gate around seven at night.

The victim was a snake hunter.

The direct cause of death was a contusion on the chest.

The first and the second victim have never met each other,

and their wives do not have anything in common, either.

So we treated those cases separately. However...

However, another person died yesterday.

I am serious! I really saw that body!

I saw it myself!

Seriously!

Why do you not believe me?

Did you really see that body?

[Notice] Why would I have told a lie?

His whole body was drenched from the blood that came out of his neck wound.

Aigoo! Thinking about how scared I was... Aigoo!

[Notice: On the 14th of October...] I thought I would die at the pharmacy while trying to get an ointment for myself.

Is it true that the victim was Old Man Kim, the rug weaver?

Yes!

Aigoo! His youngest daughter has not found someone to marry yet.

He was such a nice person!

I know!

Aigoo!

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

By the way, do you know what is worse?

Yesterday, I overheard the soldiers talking while putting the body away.

The culprit apparently wrote...

a letter on Old Man Kim's back.

A letter?

Myeol! Myeol!

It was the letter Myeol, which means "destroy."

My goodness!

Oh, my goodness!

Aigoo!

What is he doing?

These cases do not seem to be related at a glance, but...

- Serial murders. - Are they serial murders?

They are clearly serial murders.

What makes you think so?

First of all, on the bodies of the first and the third victim,

the letters "Song" and "Myeol" were written separately.

I almost ruled out the second victim since a letter was not found on the body,

but I found something in common with the other two cases.

Which is that all the victims were...

senior citizens.

I will call this case "Sabangahn" * (Referring to four different directions)

from now on.

The first murder took place at a tavern near Heoyeonbang. Therefore, South.

The second one was at a small temple near Sujeong Gate. Therefore, North.

The third one was at a pharmacy near Seoso Gate. Therefore, West.

- What is left is- - East.

According to Sergeant Han,

serial murders are happening in each direction.

If so, does it mean the culprit

has not finished his murders?

Yes.

According to the pattern, his last victim will be

found in the East, near Heungin Gate.

It is highly likely that it will be around Geondeokbang and Chamseonbang.

Also, the culprit took the risk of being seen

by carving letters on two bodies.

It looks like a murder ritual with a purpose.

Therefore,

the culprit is definitely superstitious.

Since all three victims were senior citizens,

the victim on the East side

will highly likely be a senior citizen as well.

You sound persuasive.

If you allow us, we will send out the soldiers and protect the senior citizens on the East side,

and catch the culprit.

Does anyone have a different opinion than Sergeant?

Soon Dol, what do you think?

I am sure you all heard about the strange case at the military training hunting grounds.

This is the person who solved the mystery of the celebratory message.

I will give you a chance.

Do not hesitate to share your thought.

I shall not hold back.

There is no way my betroth will recognize me now.

I also think these are serial murders.

I also agree with Sergeant that the culprit is likely to be superstitious. However...

I cannot agree that the murders are taking place in

four directions.

Sergeant's theory is wrong?

What is your reason?

We need to find the meaning of the letters on the bodies first.

I am sure there is a clue that you missed on the second body.

If we reinvestigate that,

- we can find the exact pattern- - What if the murder happens on the East side?

Are you certain that it will not be on the East side?

If we end up with another victim by doing nothing,

can you take responsibility and bring him back to life?

Do you not find the dates suspicious, Sergeant?

What?

If the culprit chose the murder sites based on superstitious belief,

he probably did not choose just any date, either.

Your Highness, I think I can find out where the next murder will take place.

A book about lucky dates and directions?

Yes, please allow me to check its calendar.

[4th, South]

[14th, North]

[18th, West]

- Bring the calendar here. - Yes.

That is not necessary.

His theory makes perfect sense.

According to the calendar, the next murder will happen on the West side,

not the East side, like what Sergeant said.

That is correct.

And if it really is based on the calendar,

the next lucky day is six days after.

That is a big problem, then.

- Let us release the soldiers immediately and... - Your Highness.

Even if he were right, we still do not know who our suspect is.

That is why we need to investigate further.

In order to find our suspect,

we need to look into the remaining clue,

the letters on the bodies.

Your Highness, I said the second body does not have a letter on it.

Please allow me to check again.

There must be something he missed.

The reason why he took the risk by carving letters on the bodies

is his motive for these murders.

We need to question his motive after we arrest him.

What is more important is to prevent the fourth murder.

That is what I am trying to do.

A person's life depends on it.

We cannot waste a moment.

Even if you check the body again,

there is no guarantee that you will figure out the meaning of the letters.

What if you end up wasting time by investigating?

Your Highness, even if we go to the Western side of the capital, as he said,

we have yet to find the suspect.

So we must protect everyone in the area.

However, that is impossible.

I will go to the East side

and make sure to prevent the fourth murder.

- Sergeant! - Yes, Your Highness.

Send a signal to the Eastern office to tighten security.

Also, Sergeant Han Seong On will form an army of fifth-degree soldiers

and be in charge of security in East Hanyang.

I will follow your order.

Also, Eunuch Go Soon Dol will reinvestigate the second body

and complete your theory.

Yes!

Since murder was predicted,

time is our worst enemy.

Let us conclude the discourse now.

His Highness made you

Sergeant compete against some lowly eunuch.

Good work.

Your Highness.

Did you summon me?

- Look for Doctrine of the Mean. - Pardon?

Do you want to read Doctrine of the Mean?

There are many books.

If you tell me where it might be around...

You cannot. No, I am sure you cannot.

You have every book in your head.

Why are you looking for Doctrine of the Mean all of a sudden?

Should I find the book and bring it to the Eastern Palace?

Come on. What a rude bastard...

What is your mouth for? Why will you not speak?

Where is it?

Found it!

♪ When the quiet sound of wind approaches one step closer ♪

♪ A stranger who brushed against my clothes ♪

Although I never miss the opportunity to be proud,

but I never miss the opportunity to compliment someone as well.

Also...

I never miss the opportunity to award someone, either

The apple is an award for doing well during the discourse.

It's a precious apple all the way from Daegu.

♪ Without even realizing... ♪

What a strange person.

Is he actually affectionate?

Crown Prince, I take back that I called you a rude bastard.

♪ What should I do with my heart? ♪

His Highness, who's so picky with people,

brought someone new into the Eastern Palace?

Tell our man at the Eunuch's Office to find out what kind of person

Go Soon Dol, the eunuch of the Eastern Palace is.

Yes.

You will have to catch the culprit no matter what.

Do not become a laughing stock to that lowly eunuch.

Go Soon Dol!

Was the apple...

tasty?

Yes.

It was...

very tasty.

♪ It was just for a moment ♪

♪ On the day we day we smiled together ♪

♪ I must've fallen like a leaf ♪

♪ You understand my heart as if it is sick ♪

♪ Because of that moment, I still... ♪

♪ The wind warms my life ♪

[Our Blooming Youth]

I will send another person there tomorrow.

- How strange. - This might get really bad, Master!

Is it because of the ghost's letter?

I'm sure he did not die.

I will make sure to solve it!

Why did he have to do that?

You dared to lie to me, and now you are asking me what to do?

It is against the law.

I figured out the pattern of the murders!
