The Game: Towards Zero (더 게임: 0시를 향하여)

Mi Jin's death changed again.

The time of death...

changed from 7:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Doctor!

Mi Jin.

- Mi Jin. - No.

He's the culprit?

Why? Do you know him?

You're here.

Let me introduce him.

He's Kim Tae Pyung, the man I mentioned before.

You'll never find...

Seo Joon Young.

How did I forget about you?

Mr. Goo, you're under emergency arrest...

for Lee Mi Jin's murder.

Is that what he told you? That I'm the culprit?

What is it that you want?

What is it?

This is absurd.

It's already weird enough that someone can see others' death,

and you now trust what he says and accuse me of murder?

I guess you don't remember because it has been too long.

Mr. Kim Tae Pyung said he saw you...

at Hope Orphanage 20 years ago.

I heard he predicted your death.

He said you'll commit suicide in front of police officers.

But that's not going to happen.

I'm going to...

lock you up in jail for murdering Mi Jin.

That's called a targeted investigation.

Don't worry.

I won't lock up...

an innocent man in prison.

Please leave.

Look for his computers and cameras.

Also, pay extra attention to find...

- the strings he used to bind her. - Yes, ma'am.

You must collect everything...

that can be used against him as evidence.

- Yes. - Yes, ma'am.

If he was arrested without a warrant,

the arrest needs to be approved by a prosecutor within 12 hours.

- Within 12 hours? - If it's not approved,

they have to let him go. It's 7 p.m. right now.

- We have nine hours. - Yes.

Can you find out a bit more about Goo Do Kyung?

And ask if anyone knows him at Hope Orphanage.

Yes, okay.

You were here?

Do you even care...

if I'm around or not?

Why did you do that?

You knew everything. Why didn't you say anything?

You already knew why I couldn't see Ms. Seo's death.

No?

I'm asking you.

That's why I told you...

that you two are...

in an ill-fated relationship.

You two like one another, but you can never be together.

Then it has to be an ill-fated relationship.

You can't see her death...

because you cause...

her death.

That woman, Seo Joon Young,

will die because of you.

So...

you should stop here.

Were you also unable to see...

the death of that woman you loved like how I can't see Joon Young's?

Yes.

That's why I liked her.

Okay. 1, 2.

Good.

1, 2.

- Come. - Really?

When I looked at her,

I felt like I was an ordinary person.

That's why...

I was heartbroken...

to see you.

There's this person that I want to keep seeing.

What do you do when you're alone?

What do you do for fun?

When I'm with her,

I love how I feel like an ordinary person.

Now I understand...

why you tried so hard to stop me.

And why...

you tried to kill yourself.

Sir. Wake up.

Did you know someone's death...

can be changed by murder?

Isn't that why you tried to kill yourself?

Committing suicide is...

a way of murdering yourself.

Yes.

Yet you...

saved my life.

But someone's fate...

doesn't change that easily as you think it would.

So you need to stop here.

Then at the very least,

you can avoid causing her death.

What if that isn't the case?

What if she still falls in danger?

Then it must be also her fate.

No.

As long as you can stop someone's murder,

getting murdered to death just cannot be...

someone's fate.

I saw how Joon Young's colleagues will die.

Hey.

You're here.

Mr. Kim Tae Pyung?

Mr. Kim Tae Pyung?

They all died...

on the same day due to an explosion.

It was gruesome.

Apart from them,

there were many other victims.

I need to know the connection between them...

and Joon Young's death...

and why that explosion occurred.

So?

Let's say you saved their lives.

What about Joon Young, whose death you can't see?

In the end, the remaining one will be full of sorrow.

I know who's trying to kill her.

I can stop him.

If that man is a murderer, you may die instead.

I'm not afraid of dying.

But before any of that happens,

I'm going to try to persuade him.

- Persuade him? - Yes.

I saw his face when he killed Mi Jin.

I have a feeling that murdering people...

isn't what he wants.

Yes?

Okay. Bye.

What did they say?

They're still searching,

but both his laptop and cellphone are clean.

Hey, did you find anything?

Joon Young.

We found footages of the murderer entering and leaving Mi Jin's room.

But he's masked, so we can't identify him.

So we're looking through the other footages,

but it seems like he knew all the blind spots.

There are no traces of him.

What about the gown and sneakers that he wore at that time?

The squad is looking, but some of the wastes...

have been sent to the incineration plant,

so I'm not sure if we can find them.

All right. Keep me updated.

The best evidence we can get...

is the murderer's DNA from Mi Jin's fingernails,

so let's be patient.

- Okay. - Joon Young.

Didn't Tae Pyung say that he saw the murderer...

at Hope Orphanage?'

He did.

Jo Hyun Woo was there as well.

Look. I found this article while looking into the orphanage.

("Jo Hyun Woo, Son of Jo Pil Doo, Sent to Hope Orphanage")

Weren't you at that orphanage as well?

Yes.

I need to go somewhere.

Where are you going at this hour?

I need to verify something. I won't take long.

You must be hungry. Would you like me to order something?

No, I'm fine.

I'm Chief Nam Woo Hyun of Crime Division.

I heard you used to stay at the Hope Orphanage.

That's right.

Then do you remember a kid named Jo Hyun Woo?

Doesn't everyone?

Aren't you talking about Jo Pil Doo's son?

Were you two friends?

Not really.

Anyway, everyone there knew about him.

MBC E11 'The Game: Towards Zero' "Ill-Fated Relationship" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

Thank you for sparing some time at this hour.

Don't mention it.

By the way, why do you need a photo of Jo Hyun Woo?

Is he related to Mi Jin's murderer?

No, it's something personal.

I see.

Still, I doubt he posted a photo...

of the culprit's family in the newspaper.

He may not have posted it, but I'm sure there's a photo.

He shot many photos of me.

(Killer of Midnight Case, People around Jo Pil Doo)

It must be here.

It's him. Jo Hyun Woo.

What's your name?

What is it?

I don't have one.

I knew it.
