(Episode 20)

Do you like the gift I sent you?

I will take it as your gesture of consideration.

That's a relief.

But you should take care of the people that work for you.

Prosecutor Jang intervened.

It was Prosecutor Jang who tried to stop me from killing Jo Soo Ji.

Did you meet the prosecutors who were in charge of this case?

The prosecutor had already resigned.

I'm looking into it.

I want to be of use to you.

If I give you a chance?

If you give me a chance, I'll catch Jo Soo Ji.

Keep an eye on Nam Byung Jae.

I don't know when he started working for him,

but he would do anything under Yoon Seung Ro's orders.

So he might know where my mom is?

I will keep an eye on him.

I'll hack into his computer, phone, and anything else that I can reach.

Whatever it is that he's hiding,

I'll even find out what kind of porn he watched 10 years ago.

Wait. Are you trying to make us do everything...

after giving us some information?

I have to do my job.

What is your job?

If you find Viper,

I'll have him as witness for Yoon Seung Ro's confirmation hearing.

That's not enough.

As always,

he'll get out.

I'll make him leave a trace.

That is why there should be someone to work next to him like me.

I need you to find out something.

I will.

Make sure Prosecutor Jang doesn't find out.

I'll teach you something.

You can't win them with your way.

Yes, Ms. Lee.

We found Prosecutor Jang's car.

She's not here.

What happened?

She couldn't threaten me and was already found by the police.

After being cornered, she just ran away.

You should have come here quickly.

Why did you let her get away at the church?

You seem all right.

Hey.

How can you say that to someone who was held hostage?

There wasn't any problem.

Is that all? Won't you catch her?

I will. And I'll catch the accomplices too.

Prosecutor Kim, I can't reach the key.

Ms. Lee.

I'm so sick of this.

It's my mom again.

Why aren't you picking up?

All she asks is if I ate and if I am studying well.

It's always the same.

She's so busy that she wants to act like a mom like this.

I guess she doesn't know that you are bullied...

because of her.

Even if I tell her, nothing will change.

Why would I?

If those kids find out, they'll bash me about how I told on them.

And my mom would be sad about this.

It's something for me to fight through.

I think there are many frustrating people in this world.

Are there such people around you too?

Sometimes, I think everyone who's like that would disappear.

Me too.

I thought you would be completely different from me.

We're surprisingly alike in many ways.

Would it really be okay for him to go in by himself?

They know our faces, so we can't help it.

Kyung Soo, did you get in?

I'm going in now.

The two of Soo Ji's associates that ran away last night are...

on the left, Seo Bo Mi, and on the right, unidentified.

Hey, you can't just barge in. What brings you in here?

Pardon?

I told him to get something. Stop being so sensitive.

Did you bring everything from the trunk?

Yes.

Place it above the cabinet.

Are there any other pictures of that man?

That's the best one we have.

It was pretty dark.

(Jo Soo Ji's Group)

What we are sure of is that the two of them helped her escape.

(Jo Soo Ji's Group)

- Gosh. - Bo Mi.

Hey, you, officer. Wait.

There is one more person.

Bo Mi is the one who looked at security cameras in Miseo-dong.

Then the unidentified hacker who hacked the electronic board.

Lastly, someone who sent the pictures of suspects...

to the Miseo-dong apartment.

It has to be at least three.

What do you think, Prosecutor Jang?

I'm sure you saw the accomplices since you were held as a hostage.

I haven't seen anyone else other than the two of them.

What about that father?

I checked the security footage,

and it looked like he was at the church with you.

Come to think about it, he said he was praying by himself,

but that was a lie.

If he helped her escape, he might be an accomplice.

Since I was held down as a hostage,

I'm sure he reluctantly had to do whatever Soo Ji told him.

But since he was at the scene, we have to investigate him.

Yes, do that.

What's your affiliation?

I work in the administration.

I haven't seen you around.

I just started.

Where is your name tag?

Well... That's...

Then one of the step brothers became the assailant's son,

and the other became the victim's son.

Thank you, Do Han.

Let's leave the father out.

I'm sure Prosecutor Jang knows the best about the situation.

He wouldn't lie.

Right?

I put it on, but it fell off.

What's your name?

My name?

Detective Ma.

What are you doing out here during a meeting?

I had to check something.

Why are you still standing around?

People at the administration are probably looking for you.

Are you sure he is a police officer?

Then who is he?

I guess I am mistaken.

What happened with tracking the stolen vehicle?

Oh, right. I'll get that ready.

What happened?

Of course,

I succeeded.

(Myeonghee-dong Catholic Church)

Look, isn't that the father from last time?

They must be investigating him because he was with us.

Maybe they are onto the leader as well.

Gosh, I hacked his laptop,

but I can't hack into his phone.

That should work on everything that's connected to the internet.

That's odd.

What's wrong?

I think he blocked the device from getting connected.

I think the only way we have left is to get into his phone physically.

- What should we do? - No problem. We've got the leader.

He made us sweat so much. He should at least stand up for once.

If I could get near his phone, I would've done so already.

I don't know what's in it, but he won't stay away from it.

Should I just pick his pocket?

- Forget it. - You'll get hurt.

He's been a detective for decades.

If we make a rash move, he'll only get suspicious.

For now, keep your eyes on him.

I'll try to find a way to get into his phone.

He just came out from the police agency.

Prosecutor Kim.

Why are you so cold to me nowadays?

I guess you've always been rather cold to me,

but you're even colder recently.

Is there something going on that's outside of my knowledge?

That is...

what I'd like to ask you.

You should tell me first.

What have you been plotting while you worked for the chief prosecutor?

I'm not sure why you're like this,

but I do know one thing about you.

I know someone is behind you and Senior Prosecutor Park.

That's why you two got into the Joint Investigation Unit.

Are you threatening me because you know...

something about me?

I'm telling you to be careful.

It would be pretty bad if people found out how you told...

Assemblywoman Chae about the Miseo-dong case.

I don't want to see you get in any danger.

You are the only prosecutor I can give any credit to.

That's so bad.

I think you are already in danger.

(Chief Prosecutor Yoon)

- Thank you. - Sure.

- Isn't it hot? - It is.

How will you manage in this hot weather?

Whom is he meeting?

I'm not sure.

I don't think he's a part of the Joint Investigation Unit.

Did Seung Ro make him do something again?

I told you a while ago to meet the detectives of the Miseo-dong case.

Why haven't you reported back?

I was about to make a report.

I just met the detective who was in charge of the Miseo-dong case.

It was Detective Ma Jin Gi of Joint Investigation Unit.

He suddenly came by a few days ago...

and asked him many questions regarding the case.

I doubt Detective Ma would make a move by himself.

Ms. Lee was probably behind him,

or it could be Prosecutor Kim, who's close to Ms. Lee.

Oh, and that detective also has a history with Prosecutor Jang.

He was investigated for bribery a few years ago.

Prosecutor Jang showed a lot of interest in the Miseo-dong case.

Well done.

- Keep going. - Okay.

I met with the detective, and he didn't remember.

So many people have been asking about the Miseo-dong case.

It's quite famous now.

Is that so?

Are you saying we can't find out...

who identified the suspects and sent their photos...

to the Miseo-dong apartment block?

I'll find another way.

You're excused.

How long will you deceive me?

What do you mean?

You gave me your word that you'd arrest Soo Ji.

You keep losing her.

I apologize.

Don't just wait. Make a move.

Do you want me to set a trap?

You're smart enough to think of something.

I'll use her mother.

She'll have to show up.

Good.

I'll look forward to it.

Yoon Seung Ro would have had someone to cover it up.

That doesn't make your actions disappear or become justified!

My daughter is dead.

A person is dead.

But you used that death...

as an opportunity to get close to him.

(Missing person)

This scarf.

I gave it to her on her birthday.

She wore it all the time,

bragging about her son's sense of fashion.

If I'd known she liked it so much,

I'd have gotten a nicer scarf.

She looks lovely.

It suits her.

My dad and brother want me to stop looking,

and Bo Mi tells me not to have hope.

I can't give up.

I have a feeling she's out there waiting for me.

If we can prove this detective is Viper,

will we be able to find her?

I hope so.

I miss her.

My mom.

Here's a snack. You must be hungry after your lesson.

Thanks.

Your math grades are falling.

You need a new tutor, don't you?

I'll deal with it.

You can't go to your dad's college with grades like yours.

That's a nice drawing. Did you draw it?

Someone else did.

Who? A friend from school?

A friend.

No one's ever given you anything.

Do you like this friend?

I think something fun will happen if we hang out.

Do you like this friend?

I think something fun will happen if we hang out.

What are you doing here, Leader?

I'm glad you're here.

We took photos of all the people Detective Nam met today,

and there's someone we don't know. You might.

We must go somewhere first.

Your home.

What for? Is something wrong?

Your mom's very sick.

Her store's been closed for days.

There was no talk of that just a few days ago.

How sick is she?

I don't know.

You don't know much, but you want her to go with you to see her?

The media will catch wind tomorrow.

The plan is to use her to lure you out of hiding.

Are they using mothers and daughters now?

What scum.

It was my idea.

Last time,

you lured us into a trap to gain the chief prosecutor's favor.

Why are you telling me in advance?

My plan will become a mess if you get caught already.

The detectives aren't in place yet.

There are only two undercover policemen.

Sooji, you should go right now.

I'll distract the cops.

Yes. Go before it gets out of hand.

You two must stay here. Keep things as quiet as possible.

What will you do then?

I'll take her.

They won't suspect me.

Prosecutor Jang will move soon.

Yes, sir.

(Call recorded)

(File saved)

You're hard at work so late at night.

What are you doing here, sir?

I'd like to ask you a few things.

Can we talk somewhere?

We're on a stakeout.

I have to carry out an important mission starting tomorrow.

I need some information on Soo Ji's mother.

You watched her every day. You must know things.

We can talk when we're relieved by the next shift.

We don't need to talk for hours.

It'll just be 10 or 20 minutes.

Do you think Soo Ji will show up now after all this time?

I won't bother you for long. Okay?

- Come over here. - We shouldn't be doing this.

Mom.

Mom.

Soo Ji?

I'm not hallucinating, am I?

It's really you, my daughter.

Have a drink.

I'm on duty.

No one will know if you drink just half a glass.

Come on.

You two have it rough.

Goodness.

It's such hard work.

Excuse me.

These are the photos she took. Do you recognize anyone?

I told you a while ago to meet the detectives of the Miseo-dong case.

Why haven't you reported back?

He had Detective Nam ask around...

and tested me.

Hello. What's the occasion?

Yes, that's true. Why?

Okay.

Why? Was that the station?

- Are we being relieved? - No, let's drink.

I need to use the men's room.

Sure.

Eat up.

Don't just say that you're okay.

Are you really okay?

I think I can live now that I saw you.

Get out.

I think it's a trap. We must go.

Okay.

Don't come out.

I'm still okay.

You know that, right?

I know.

You should go.

Go on, or I might stop you from leaving.

What do you mean it's a trap?

I think Seung Ro tested me.

What are you doing here, sir?

I should ask you the same thing.

Chief Prosecutor Yoon sent me.

I got a call that Soo Ji showed up.

I didn't hear that.

Where did you hear such nonsense?

I wonder.

I searched the whole area and couldn't find her.

Your car is the only vehicle that...

I didn't search.

So what? You want to search it?

She wouldn't dare hide in my car...

unless she were crazy.

You never know. She took you hostage, didn't she?

She could be...

hiding in the back, waiting to harm you.

She isn't here.

Then you wouldn't mind if I have a look.
