Flower of Evil (Akui Kkot / 악의 꽃)

Come quickly, hurry.

There's no such thing as ghosts.

I'm telling you I definitely heard a sound.

My Hae Soo, are you that scared of ghosts?

Aren't you scared?

I would love to meet one.

Then tell Kim Moo Jin to go down there by himself.

You're scared of that, aren't you?

Hey, you guys just wait.

I'll go interview the ghost.

Hey, be careful.

Okay, okay, okay.

Reporter Kim Moo Jin is headed in. Let's go.

It's already scary.

Alright, slowly.

Step by step.

Wow, it's spooky.

Huh?

Wow, this is sick.

What is this?

What is that?

Moo Jin, what are you doing over there?

Moo Jin, you are quite brave.

My kids can't even touch the doorknob of the basement door.

Were you filming something interesting?

Let's have a look. Kim Moo Jin.

Moo Jin, why are you shaking?

Ah, you must've been very surprised after seeing the deer.

A deer?

Of course. What else could it be but a deer?

Oh, so it was a deer.

It is a deer. It is indeed a deer.

Right?

How could this necklace still be the same?

It still sparkles prettily like before.

Are you wearing the necklace I gave you right now?

Since when?

See you at home later.

O-Okay.

What the hell is this guy's identity?

Who is he?

I can't tell you that until I'm safe.

Who knows? If you find out who he is, you might get him on your side and betray me.

If... by any chance—

If you disrupt me before I get that money,

I'm going to take his side and kill you and Jeong Mi Sook both.

Do you like money that much?

It's electrifying. Just smelling it.

If I don't pick you up just because you said not to, we wouldn't be in a special relationship.

Why isn't she picking up?

Hae Soo!

Hae Soo, wake up, huh?

Hae Soo!

Hae Soo!

Hae Soo! Wait a second.

There's an emergency patient. Please come quickly.

Murder victim Park Soon Young on the 12th at 10 am

reported for work at Gong Mi Ja's house.

On that day at 7:30 pm, she came out of Gong Mi Ja's house and took a taxi.

This is the last video taken of her alive.

Her actions after that show up on her credit card record.

At 7:50 pm, she paid for the taxi fee.

At about 8 pm she ordered delivery from her home.

She ordered a pork kimchi stew with white rice.

The delivery man testified that he personally delivered the food to her at 8:30 pm.

So that means she was alive up until 8:30 pm, right?

So what are you saying is strange about this?

The estimated time of death.

The estimated time of death?

If you take a look at this autopsy report, it is stated that she died between 4 to 6 hours after eating.

She ordered food at 8:30 pm, so that would mean she died sometime after 12:30 am.

But looking at this autopsy report, it says all her finger joints had stiffened.

So it means that it had already been 10 hours since the death.

But if it's 10 hours, she should have died before 9 pm.

One is saying after midnight, while the other says before 9 pm.

The times don't overlap at all.

Based on the environment, the body stiffness and decomposition rates can change easily.

So that's why the National Forensic Service couldn't come up with an accurate time of death based on just the autopsy.

As you said, it's certain that she was alive up until 8:30 pm yesterday.

What's important to us are her whereabouts after that.

I know, I know, but...

I'm going to have to personally meet that delivery man.

He could have seen a suspicious man around Park Soon Young's house, but so far this investigation seems incomplete.

I'll be back.

I obtained the black box footage we talked about earlier.

There's no doubt to it. He called my husband to lure him out.

It matches with the time he said he received the call.

I'll ask the image processing team to investigate this.

It seems like he purposely called from a place with no CCTV.

Why wasn't he cautious about being caught on the black box?

This is a fatal mistake for the culprit

because this is conclusive evidence that he called Do Hyun Soo.

I also find that strange.

Detective Cha, if it's an unknown number, don't pick up. It could be a reporter.

Yes.

Yes, this is the Kangsoo re-investigation team—

What?

Eun Ha, Eun Ha!

Where is my daughter?

The child is inside, but she says she won't open the door for anyone but her mother.

We felt that the child would be scared if we forcefully opened the door.

Eun Ha, it's Mom. Open the door.

Eun Ha, it's Mom. You can open the door.

- Mom! - Eun Ha!

Mom.

Mom. Mom.

Are you alright? Are you hurt?

A thief came into the house.

The teacher said I should stay in the room

and lock it.

That I should open the door only for Mom.

Well done, you did well, Eun Ha.

What about the teacher?

Promise me that you will never leave my sister's side.

You called me later than I thought you would.

Do you think it's easy to get all that money in cash?

Where do I have to meet you?

Ms. Jeong Mi Sook.

Ms. Jeong Mi Sook?

Who are you?

My name is Do Hyun Soo.

The culprit behind the Yeon Ju City serial murders is targeting you.

He is going to come here soon.

Because you are

the only survivor and witness of that case.

Also, I'm going to capture this guy.

Don't come any closer, please.

Don't come any closer.

This is the only key to this padlock.

If you don't open this door by yourself

no one else can open it.

You're safe. I promise you.

Does this mean you're helping me?

Yes.

Liar. I don't believe you.

That other man also told me he would let me meet my family.

In the end, he deceived me.

Why?

Why are you helping me?

Probably because...

you and I are in similar circumstances.

Why are we similar?

We can't understand at all why we have to go through this.

I'm also in that situation right now.

Mom, I have to go now.

Ji Won, stay with me here.

Just hide here together with me.

Mom.

How could something like this happen to us?

This is all because of Hee Seong, right?

Right? He completely deceived you.

He ended up making you miserable.

I really hate him.

It's the same for me now as it was before.

He has to be happy in order for me to be happy.

So when Eun Ha's dad comes back, please feel pity for him.

Please embrace him, like you would embrace me.

This is the guy that was caught on the black box earlier, right?

That punk was after Cha Ji Won.

He was waiting for her in front of her house.

Who the heck is this guy? Huh?

Sir, don't you think... we should release some fake information?

Fake information?

If the culprit finds out that Detective Cha is alive, she will be in danger.

We haven't even identified the culprit yet.

Yes, that's right.

I'll furtively let it slip to the press.

Detective Im, request cooperation from the team in charge at Mapo Police Station. Okay?

Yes, sir.

Is this Mapo Police Station?

It's because of me.

I promised Hyun Soo

that I wouldn't leave her side no matter what. I promised him that.

They say she didn't try to defend herself.

In order to protect our Eun Ha, she didn't resist or try to run away.

You can catch that guy, right?

Yes, definitely.

The weapon pierced through the peritoneum and damaged the organs.

Due to the shock caused by the hemorrhage, I cannot guarantee her recovery at present.

For now, the priority is for her to regain consciousness.

Hospital Director Baek Man Woo.

What?

Hae Soo said she asked him for a favor.

What favor?

The Ilsin University Hospital Overseas Medical Volunteer Program list.

From year 1999 to 2002.

Why?

She said that the culprit was among the volunteer medical workers of that period.

For now, I'll go get the list.

I'll tell you more when we meet back at the police station.

Let's go together.

- Yes, Ho Joon. - Sunbae.

Sunbae, you can't be alive today.

What?

[Female detective from Kangsoo Station Violent Crimes Team passes away after being attacked with a weapon in her home.]

Long time no see, Jeong Mi Sook.
