(8 months after Yeongseok-dong Dream Student Hostel bombing)
Sometimes, intense agony can turn out to be an inspiration...
I'm going to give you agony, starting now.
What a shame.
This kind of inspiration won't help you paint.
What kind of grudge do you have against me?
I will give you any paintings you want.
Please...
spare me...
Didn't you say during an interview...
about how you want your painting to be the beacon of hope?
Your painting, "A Girl without Lips,"
guess how much it was worth?
Maybe I'll let you live if you guess it right.
I'm not sure.
I won't tell anyone. So please, let me go.
Then guess what these words symbolize.
Maybe I'll give you the last chance to live.
Really, I really don't know.
Why...
What have I done wrong to deserve this?
As expected, you don't know.
That's too bad.
Today, I'll help you confess.
The life filled with hypocrisies and contradictions.
I will cleanse you of your sins.
(Voice 3, Episode 1, The Third Golden Time!)
Ms. Yamada, this definitely is a good catch.
It's practically free.
You know, right?
It's an art warehouse used by...
a famous artist named Kaneki Yukiko.
She suddenly wanted to retire and sell this very quickly.
Kaneki Yukiko...
is an artist known for her "A Girl without Lips," right?
Why did she suddenly want to retire?
Well,
artists are very erratic.
Who knows what goes on inside their heads?
Please, come in.
How is it?
With a little cleanup, this will be really nice.
There are quite a few interesting things.
There's no better place at this price in this area.
Like I said, it's practically free.
What is that?
Not sure. An installation art maybe?
An installation art?
Isn't that a human head?
No way. A human head?
(Do Kang Woo)
110. 110. Police, police!
(The Flower of Heaven)
I am in the basement, right now.
I think a child is locked in here.
Help me!
- Save me! - Team Leader Do.
I think I found the boy.
No, that's not the place.
Team Leader Do,
I think someone tried to play us.
Someone recorded a boy's voice.
Don't touch anything, and get out of there now!
You can't be here. Please hurry out of here.
There are casualties.
Please send backup.
Are you okay?
(Poongsan National Rehab Hospital)
When she first came, she suffered from head and internal injury,
and a broken leg. I doubted that she'll pull through.
Now she's an outpatient?
She is one strong woman.
Saving lives is no easy job.
But still, she shouldn't push herself too much.
I heard she asked you about tinnitus?
Yes. She told me she sometimes hears a sudden ringing noise,
followed by several seconds of complete silence.
Is it an after effect of the explosion?
After Team Leader Jang was murdered in 2018,
our team selected Poongsan as a test city,
reinstated Do Kang Woo as the Team Leader,
who had the clue about the accomplice.
We started to chase after the killer at a full force.
Just when teammates opened up,
thanks to the trap set by the creator by the hatred site,
we suspected Team Leader Do as the killer.
But once we realized it was a trap designed by the real killer,
the team united as one,
and successfully apprehended the killer, Bang Je Soo.
On the day of the accident,
we encountered shocking news...
that Team Leader Do was kidnapped by someone behind Fabre.
Dispatch Three speaking. Sir, did you find Team Leader Do?
Dispatch Two speaking.
No, I don't see him anywhere.
Do you think he could have been kidnapped?
Arresting the actual culprit behind the murder of Mr. Jang...
and keeping the promise of giving Team Leader Do our total trust.
That is what the Golden Time Team and I...
need to do, this time.
(Golden Time Operation Room)
- Yes, Agent Park? - Director,
are you in rehab?
We got another blackmail call regarding Mr. Do's kidnap.
So we're on Code Zero again.
The Dispatch Team just arrived on site.
I'll head over right now.
Are you sure it's from Eum Hyun Chul?
Yes, ma'am. It's the same number as the calls...
on February 20, 28, and March 15.
He's currently unemployed, address unknown, with no criminal record.
He only mentioned that he has Mr. Do locked up...
in an abandoned house.
The location was tracked as Dangseol Street, Dangseol-gu.
- I'll put you through. - Okay.
(9:10am, 5 minutes since...)
(the kidnapping of Team Leader Do.)
(Dangseol-gu, Dangseol-dong)
- Please make way. - Excuse us.
- The back side. - Yes, sir.
Director Kang speaking. Do you see Mr. Do inside?
Dispatch Two speaking.
We don't see him. But by the entrance...
What's this called?
Looking at the pictures and the candles outside,
it's probably someone religious.
We don't know what to expect. So be careful.
Yes, ma'am. Don't worry.
Let's go in.
- He's not here. - No?
Over there.
Sir, what's this?
Where is he?
Dispatch Three speaking.
This could be the one who kidnapped Mr. Do.
We found a storage room in the back. We're going in.
It shouldn't be this easy.
And what's that sound?
Dispatch Two speaking.
There's a weird sound coming from the wooden cabinet.
Ma'am, there's a possibility that the call is from his neighbor,
Noh Jae Hyun, and not Eum Hyun Chul.
We just confirmed that Eum Hyun Chul is at the homeless shelter.
So we checked the IP on the phone...
and found out that he had been posting anonymous videos online...
to criticize and mock the police.
And we also found footage of him...
lurking around the building 40 minutes ago...
on the surveillance camera.
- What's his motive? - He may blame his father's...
criminal records for failing the police recruit exams.
He may have seen the interview on Bang Je Soo...
and targeted Mr. Do and the Golden Time Team.
The one that revealed Mr. Do's father is a murderer.
Dispatch Team, don't open the door. It's dangerous!
Sir!
Sir! Are you all right?
Gosh, that fool!
Detective Park, are you okay?
I'm fine. Maybe a scratch somewhere.
Detective Park! Noh Jae Hyun's phone is close to the site.
He must be watching from nearby.
What?
Where?
There he is! Get him!
Hey! Hurry!
That way! Follow me!
- Let's go! - Step away.
Hey, Noh Jae Hyun! Come here!
You!
Gosh!
Hey!
Stop right there! Come back here!
Stay still!
That fool!
Golden Time Team, don't flatter yourself.
Noh Jae Hyun, you are arrested for obstruction of justice...
and use of explosives.
You have the right to appoint and the right to make excuses.
Bring him in.
Dispatch Two speaking. The call for Mr. Do's kidnap and confinement...
is a false alarm.
We're heading back to the station.
Let's go.
Good job.
A video regarding a prank call...
on the police and bombing...
has gone viral online.
Poongsan Police Station disbanded...
the investigation team for the case of missing detective,
Do Kang Woo, this morning.
Detective Do, leader of Golden Time Team at Poongsan Police Station,
went missing after it was revealed 8 months ago...
that his father had been executed...
for a murder case in Osaka in 1991.
But there had been no progress in the investigation.
(Poongsan Metropolitan Police Agency)
Commissioner.
I got the feeling you were avoiding my calls. So I waited for you.
How could you disband the investigation headquarters?
I have a meeting. So you may discuss urgent matters later on.
You know very well that the chances of the victim surviving...
falls with the time in missing cases.
I'm positive that Bang Je Soo is behind all this.
If we spent eight months on this case without a conclusion,
that's the best we could do.
Besides, we couldn't find any clues for the case.
So he could have left on his own.
You're the only one who won't accept it!
We can't waste any more of our budget or human resources on this.
Is it because his father is a murderer?
Detective Do worked harder than anyone as an officer...
in order to pull himself apart from that stigma.
He was a victim of prejudice...
and had to suffer from all the hatred.
I know that better than anyone else, sir.
Director Kang!
I know you had a hard time due to the explosion.
I understand that you want to vent somewhere.
But this is unacceptable!
The public opinion is getting worse the more we investigate.
And the headquarters feel uncomfortable about it.
And to be honest,
he's underqualified as an officer. Do you know that?
So you're finally being honest.
If you really think like that, I have no choice.
I'll find Team Leader Do myself and prove my point.
Doesn't disbanding Investigation Headquarters...
mean that we should give up on our investigation?
Gosh, this is ridiculous. I should just...
But do you know that?
Rumors in the precinct say that Team Leader Do ran away...
because Bang Je Soo has evidence that proves his murder.
That's ridiculous. How would Team Leader Do...
run away after committing a crime with that temper?
We shouldn't join in on the talk too.
You look terrible.
- Where's Director Kang? - She went to see the commissioner.
Don't be too upset about disbanding Investigation Headquarters.
And that jerk, Do Kang Woo...
He's a true detective.
He won't disappear without a word for no reason.
Let's trust him and wait.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Agent Jin, how did the search go?
Well, I checked every camera...
in every airport and port since June.
But I found nothing.
What if they really buried Team Leader Do or something?
We should find a way rather than thinking about such things.
Yes, ma'am.
Pretty Pig is searching the smuggling routes.
So we'll get something soon.
So are you saying that this man who was briefly captured...
could be Team Leader Do?
Yes.
They run their own cameras to prevent stowaways...
from reporting them to the police.
I ran this video through a face recognition program,
and the synchronization rate is quite high.
But I'm not sure if the big guy next to him...
could be the abductor.
Okay. Let's search a bit more.
Agent Jin, are you okay?
I'm okay.
I went through surgery soon enough. So I won't have any troubles.
The hospital was rather surprised by my quick recovery.
(Aunt)
Yes, Aunt?
Hey, Seo Yul. Is it okay for me to call you now?
Yes. Is it something urgent?
Well, Se Young...
won a free housing voucher...
on a traveling app or something.
She asked me to join her.
I asked her what I should do with my food stand,
and she just left this morning to go there with a friend.
And that brat won't pick up my calls either.
You should tell her to be careful on her trip.
Then you should've gone with her.
I would've given you some spending money if you went.
How could we afford to go to Japan with our situation?
Anyway, that spoiled brat...
must've been so upset that she was the only one, among her friends,
that hasn't been to Japan.
I mean, what use is a free place to stay?
You'll end up spending money anyway.
Gosh, that brat has no idea how I feel.
Three ham and cheese toasts, please.
Sure.
Seo Yul, I'll call you later. I have customers.
Please do what I said. Goodbye.
1, 2, 3.
One more. 1, 2...
(Seoul Cousin)
Who is it?
Well, it's my cousin.
- He's a police officer. - I see.
I'm sure my mom told him to call me.
(Seoul Cousin)
What is it? I'm busy.
Se Young, you should at least pick up calls even if you're busy.
Doesn't Aunt know anything?
She doesn't know anything. Just tell her that I'll call later.
Hey!
Seriously.
Is that it?
Is it the strap your mother made you to not lose your phone?
It's nothing.
Hey. We might get in trouble later, but we should have some fun first.
Of course.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
When will Se Young grow up?
Director Kang, would you look at this?
I'm not sure yet,
but I think that Team Leader Do might've been taken by them...
and went on a smuggling ship to Japan.
- A smuggling ship to Japan? - Yes.
(Do Kang Woo)
Yes?
What? Where are you?
Okay.
Director Kang, it's the Consulate of Korea in Osaka.
They say it's urgent.
Let me speak with them.
I'm Director Kang Kwon Joo of Golden Time Team.
Are you Director Kang Kwon Joo?
I'm Detective Jo Young Choon of Consulate of Korea in Osaka.
Why is the consulate calling us?
Well, a female artist, Kaneki Yukiko,
was found in pieces inside her art warehouse.
But Detective Do Kang Woo's police ID was found at the site.
- What? - If Detective Do is the culprit,
this could cause a serious diplomatic problem.
I'll be there right away.
Director Kang, what is it?
Team Leader Do's police ID was found at a crime scene in Osaka.
Detective Park, Detective Koo.
Team Leader Do's police ID was found at a crime scene in Osaka.
- What? - What?
Yes, immediately...
Please take care of the center.
Yes, ma'am.
(Do Kang Woo)
(Japanese Detective, Sakarai Ryoji)
A colleague of Detective Do Kang Woo will be coming.
Are there any other clues?
As you can see,
the body is too damaged.
It's no ordinary lunatic.
Her body, shoulders, wrists, and ankles...
were precisely cut into 14 pieces through the joints.
And she was positioned like a flower with her head in the center.
The culprit must've thought that he or she was an artist.
But we can't figure out what the murder weapon was.
It would be possible for only someone evil...
that has a smart brain and great strength.
And about the mother and daughter...
that went missing after going on a hot spring tour...
about three weeks ago in Hokkaido.
They say that it's probably a suicide.
They say that a written will was sent to the mother by mail.
Is that so?
Then tell the Hokkaido men to take care of that case.
Yes, sir.
(Udenpogu, Osaka)
This way.
This is completely different compared to the photos.
Look here.
This was clearly edited by Photoshop.
How could a room like this...
How could a room like this cost 3,000 dollars?
And what was that?
Does it make sense that the public charge...
is worth 300 dollars?
Who are you framing for fraud?
Just leave if you don't like it.
What? This guy is a complete fraud.
Return the money you took from us right now.
You idiots.
The payment is already over.
If you want to complain about this, just go back to your country.
Or...
do you want me to play with you?
I'm sorry.
- Let's just leave. - Hey. But this is...
Hey, are you insane?
He looked like a pervert and a thug.
How could you talk back to him like that?
Then should we just give up on the 300 dollars?
What should we do?
I'm sure the guesthouses are all booked.
Forget it. I'm going to call my mom and ask her to wire me some money.
Hold on.
She will flip out.
If my mom finds out, I'm dead meat.
Where can we find a place to stay at this hour?
I was prepared and downloaded so many applications.
You just wait.
(Happy House offers you rooms every day!)
Hey, check this out.
1 day at a ryokan costs 140 dollars.
- What? Let me see. - Here.
I can't believe this.
- Hey, call them right now. - Okay.
- Hello? - Hello.
Is this Mr. Suzuki?
I saw your ryokan on Happy House.
It said you were giving discounts for early arrivals.
Yes, that's correct. Where are you right now?
We're in front of Momi Love Hotel in Mayanochaya, Udenpogu.
Is that right? I'm actually nearby.
I'll pick you up.
Really?
Then we'll be waiting here.
Thank you.
What did he say?
- It worked! - It did?
My gosh! I thought we were going to sleep on the streets.
(Osaka Airport)
If Do Kang Woo is confirmed to be a suspect,
let the Japanese police take care of it.
The consulate will take care of the rest.
Don't forget.
Overstepping your boundaries...
may lead to infringement of sovereignty.
Are you Director Kang? I'm Jo Young Choon.
I'm Kang Kwon Joo.
These are Detective Park Joong Ki and Detective Koo Kwang Soo.
- I'm Park Joong Ki. - I'm Koo Kwang Soo.
Let's head to the hospital first.
Unfortunately, the detective in charge is Sakarai Ryoji.
He's notorious here in Osaka.
His nickname is Crocodile.
He's infamous for never letting go of his cases.
There are also rumors about his having hatred for Korea.
But how could he immediately suspect our team leader...
- after finding his ID at the scene? - Then what should we have done?
In Japan, they show no mercy...
to their suspects and disclose their names and faces.
On top of that, words spread about how he's the son...
of that child murderer.
They're more sensitive about this.
Hello, this is the Consulate of Korea in Osaka.
What? Travel application fraud?
There's nothing we can do for you.
It's highly likely that such clauses were written in the terms.
Please call the police agency.
My gosh.
Can I see the case file?
Here you go.
Hello, this is the Consulate of Korea in Osaka.
Yes. Is that true?
Okay.
Detective Do Kang Woo...
has been found.
What?
- Step on it. - Yes, sir.
My gosh. What is this?
They told me to call the police agency...
if there's an emergency.
What? Really?
I'm flabbergasted.
I guess you failed to report it.
I can't believe you were scammed the moment you came here.
I'm sorry about that.
I hope delicious kaiseki will cheer you up.
My wife is a great cook.
Really? Thank you.
His wife is going to cook us kaiseki.
You look like a happy family.
I live with only my mom, and we fight like cats and dogs.
I'm sure you're her favorite person in the world.
No. She will never think like that.
I got this free coupon by getting no sleep at night.
If she was here, she would've thrown a fit.
I'm glad she's not here.
Hey.
Come in.
(Osaka Jeil Hospital)
They barely stopped him...
from beating a pedestrian near the crime scene.
This way.
There is evidence of self-harm on his body.
He also has needle marks.
"Needle marks"?
Did he do drugs?
No, that's not it.
He got some over-the-counter tranquilizers.
"Tranquilizers"?
That's correct, sir.
Hello, Congressman Makio. This is Sakarai Ryoji.
Sorry?
You're coming here right now?
Well, the thing is...
Keep an eye on him.
Yes, sir.
Kousuke.
Sir, are you awake?
What is this?
Let me go this instant!
We'll be accompanying you to the station as a murder suspect.
What nonsense is that?
Don't waste time, and let me go.
Bring me my belongings!
Calm down!
Sir, you need to come here.
- The suspect is causing a scene! - Let me go!
Please hold the line, sir.
What?
The suspect is causing a scene!
Sir, I will have to call you back. I'm sorry.
Subdue him this instant!
He was apprehended near the crime scene of Kaneki Yukiko...
while beating a pedestrian. He lost consciousness soon after.
He has no immigration records...
and had countless intravenous injections.
He even took a drug test.
I'm baffled.
"Intravenous injections"?
Yes, it's a type of stimulant.
It looks like he injected himself.
If you don't uncuff me,
I will break his neck!
Let him go! Or else, I'll shoot!
I won't repeat myself.
Uncuff me this instant!
I will shoot!
Put your hands up.
If not, I'll shoot.
What are you doing?
How could you fail to handle one suspect?
What are you doing?
I'm Director Kang Kwon Joo from Korea's Golden Time Team.
They're detectives from Korea's Golden Time Team.
Team Leader Do, are you okay?
I'm Sakarai Ryoji from the Japanese police.
We were taking countermeasures because Mr. Do Kang Woo...
was refusing to cooperate and opted for violence.
You see,
we've never met a suspect...
responsible for such a gruesome murder.
You know this is not enough evidence to accuse him of being a suspect.
This is not enough evidence to accuse him of being a suspect.
He smuggled himself in here and doesn't have...
an immigration record.
I heard he's the son of Matsuda Futoshi.
The murder of Fujiyama Miho...
is a very notorious and well-known case.
We have suspicions of his abduction.
Also, forcing him to stay here without any firm evidence...
is a violation of international law.
If you don't uncuff him right now,
I will complain to the Japanese police.
If you don't uncuff him right now,
she will complain to the Japanese police.
There's nothing more dangerous than a detective...
who is buried in their own conviction.
Team Leader Do, you should go to the consulate first.
Step out of this.
I'll take care of this.
I guess you aren't too happy to see...
your colleagues.
It seems like someone is dead.
But it has nothing to do with me.
I collapsed because of an illness.
Check the dashcam...
of a red pickup truck with a license plate of 4512...
that's parked in the alleyway.
This is Sakarai Ryoji.
Look for a red pickup truck with a license plate of 4512...
near the crime scene.
Yes, it's here.
All right.
You should remember something.
If anything you said turns out to be false,
I will make you rot in prison.
If you're confident enough, then be my guest.
He's hiding something for sure.
Is that man who just left...
the one who killed Yukiko?
Nothing is for certain yet.
There are many possibilities.
If he is indeed the murderer,
I will tear him into pieces...
with my own two hands.
Come on.
How could you shock us like this?
We thought you were abducted by them.
My gosh.
Were you in a place where you couldn't watch the news?
For the past eight months, our team was in...
an extreme emergency.
Exactly.
I'm so glad you're alive.
What were you doing all these months?
Did I ever ask you to rescue me?
There you go again. We're in this together.
Once a team, always a team.
Do you not understand me?
Since we caught Bang Je Soo,
our team no longer exists.
Let me go on my way.
Team Leader Do. Sir.
Is that really what you want to say to your teammates...
after the past 10 months of searching for you?
I can't wait any longer.
Explain to us.
What planned for the past 10 months?
You still have a habit of thinking that you're my partner...
since we've worked together for several weeks.
I would've solved everything back there...
even without your help.
I don't think you have a grasp of the situation.
But if you don't explain yourself, just know that...
an even severe situation may occur.
That's correct.
You're forbidden to go on your own before the investigation is over.
You may be arrested for being an illegal alien.
Says who?
Let's go back to Korea.
He's an irresponsible team leader. Let's not mind what kind...
of punishment he'll receive.
We'll appoint a new dispatch team leader once we get back.
Wait, ma'am.
Do you even know how she rehabilitated...
Do you know how hard she looked for you?
What in the world has happened to him?
Even when he was struggling because of his father's case,
he wasn't this bad.
Did something happen that we're unaware of?
Hello, this is the Consulate of Korea in Osaka.
What? I can't hear you.
Can you speak louder, please?
Is this the embassy's emergency line?
Someone is trying to kill me. Please help.
Someone is trying to kill you?
What is it?
She says someone is trying to kill her,
but her voice is too faint.
I'll take it.
Hello, this is Director Kang Kwon Joo...
of Golden Time Team.
You can whisper. Can you repeat once again?
Please save me. Please save me.
You can't speak louder, right?
It's okay. Can you tell me where you are?
This is...
Morinoiae Ryokan in Atando.
I think the owner...
has killed his own daughter.
This is Director Kang. Agent Park, look into...
the number 010 930 5023.
And check if this individual is in Morinoiae Ryokan, Atando, Osaka.
She's in a life-threatening situation.
Yes, ma'am.
Her name is Kwon Se Young. She's 20 years old.
She flew to Japan this morning.
Seeing how I can't track her from Korea,
I believe she has switched her USIM card.
Kwon Se Young?
What is this?
Director Kang, Se Young is my cousin.
She said she received free tickets...
to the Momi Spring in Udenpogu.
Perhaps, she got the place wrong.
Ms. Kwon... No, I'll call you by your first name.
A colleague of mine claims to be your cousin.
He said you went to a hotel in Udenpogu.
It's a different address.
Yes, you're right. Seo Yul is my cousin.
I was scammed.
So right now, I'm in Morinoiae Ryokan, Atando.
Is the Atando spring far from here?
It's a five-minute drive.
But we should let the Japanese police take...
We're running out of time.
We'll ask them for help and meet them there.
Will you be all right with no knife-proof jackets?
One of our people is about to die here in Japan.
- We don't care. - You need to go to the consulate.
Yes. We need to save her for Seo Yul.
Seo Yul's cousin is in danger.
Okay, let's hurry!
Se Young, the Korean police are on their way. So don't worry.
I know it's hard, but could you explain the situation in detail?
It's a traditional ryokan.
He said his name was Suzuki.
(1 hour before the incident)
This is the living room.
This is the kitchen.
Isn't our garden pretty?
You should go upstairs.
Please wait for a moment.
Mari.
Mari. We have guests.
Really?
Okay.
She says she'll greet you at dinner because of her homework.
Of course.
We understand her.
You must be tired. Go unpack in your rooms first.
I'll call you when dinner is ready.
This way.
- Make yourselves at home. - Thank you.
- This is great. - This is great.
This is amazing.
- Hey, come over here. - Okay.
1, 2, 3.
Great. I'll upload our photo.
This is amazing.
What is this?
(Upload)
What? Why doesn't the Internet work?
- What? Really? - Yes.
No way.
Mine doesn't connect either. Why is this happening?
I want to upload where we're staying.
I should ask the password for the Wi-Fi.
- Then I'll wash first. - Okay.
I went in for a bath right after my friend went downstairs...
to ask the owner about the Wi-Fi password.
There was something that seemed like a hidden camera.
I rushed outside because I was so surprised.
It was the same photo I saw in the car.
But when I saw it again,
it seemed like he pasted the faces of those two people.
It was so frightening.
Mi Ae.
I was so confused and scared.
I went downstairs while I was looking for Mi Ae.
Then I heard a noise that sounded like someone was hitting something.
And...
Daughters really don't obey.
He said that daughters really don't obey him.
Why did you come downstairs?
I think that man killed Mi Ae too.
What should I do?
Well, excuse me.
I have something to ask.
I went into the daughter's room just in case.
But the daughter...
She was already dead.
Okay. We'll make sure we save you. Wait just a bit longer.
And it seems like it's difficult for you to speak right now.
Why don't you keep your phone on and text us?
Okay.
Agent Park. We'll use our phones as walkie-talkies now.
Open a network for the detectives' phones...
at the center.
Yes, ma'am.
How did it go?
(Atando Hot Spring Village)
These people are police officers...
from a special team in Korea, Golden Time Team.
These people are the police of Atando Hot Spring Village.
- The report is about... - We know.
The ryokan on top of there is Morinoiae.
The owner's name is Suzuki.
He says that the ryokan above there is Morinoiae.
- The owner's name is Suzuki. - Suzuki?
We'll go on our own.
You should keep talking with the caller.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
Don't overdo yourself, Director Kang.
It hasn't been so long since your recovery. We'll be back soon.
You're still the same.
You don't care about anything when you're saving people.
I think it's better than someone who says things differently...
after disappearing for 10 months and becoming a different person.
I never imagined that you would be here as an illegal alien.
You never know what people think.
So don't trust people too much.
- Team Leader Do? - Wasn't that Team Leader Do?
Really?
Director Kang, did you find Team Leader Do?
Team Leader Do, it's a relief that you're safe,
but please save my cousin.
Please save her.
We can't let Team Leader Do join in this case for now.
Agent Jin, you should check the records...
on the app that Se Young last used, Happy House.
Yes, ma'am.
This way.
Dispatch Two speaking. We arrived at Morinoiae Ryokan.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
Se Young, police officers are going in your ryokan.
Hang on. We'll make sure that we save you.
- Detective Koo, check upstairs. - Okay.
I'm sorry.
What is it?
- I don't think they're here yet. - What?
Please hurry. I'm so scared.
Darn it.
Can't you hear any people outside...
or see any police officers?
No. I can only see trees outside.
Aren't you at the wrong place?
What?
Could it be...
(Do not disturb. Studying.)
Dispatch Three speaking. I think this is the place.
Who are you people? What is going on?
Se Young.
I'm sorry. I'm Jo Young Choon from the Consulate of Korea in Osaka.
Who are you?
Dad.
It's okay.
Dispatch Three speaking. Director Kang.
This isn't the place.
I think we're at the wrong ryokan. Is the owner in your sight yet?
We'll find you soon. Don't move, and stay there.
Which ryokan is she staying at?
- Save me. - And...
Save me.
But what is this sound I've been hearing?
I can hear the same sound.
There's flowing water, but it's hitting something.
It's not metal.
It sounds like a wooden case.
Right. Something like a bamboo tube is making noise...
by repeatedly hitting something.
Team Leader Do.
I can hear flowing water and a bamboo tube hitting something.
That must be where...
You said you'll save me. Why aren't you coming?
I'm scared to death.
So this was where you were.
- Se Young. - Let me live.
Please spare me.
Spare me.
Please spare me.
I'm sure it's one of these ryokans.
We don't have time. We must find her quickly.
That's the sound from a shishi odoshi.
That butcher's ryokan...
must have a small Japanese water mill, shishi odoshi.
There must be a pond too.
Consider this as my resigning gift.
We won't see each other again after today anyway.
(8:30pm, 30 minutes after the incident)
(Travel App Murder, Osaka, Japan)
Please spare me, mister.
(Voice 3)
Please find a ryokan that has a shishi odoshi, please.
Se Young is in that ryokan.
You made things complicated, but it's fine.
Everything will be fine as long as you become my daughter.
Since we don't have time, we should search as I say.
Detective Park and Detective Koo, search the three ryokans above.
The rest will search the four ryokans below.
He's clearly a lunatic. So we must hurry.
What brings you here?
