THE VANISHED

Don't worry about a thing,

and get some rest.

You're sweating, are you okay?

A bit thirsty.

Could you get me a drink?

Kiddo, what's he up to?

Instagramming daily outfits, probably.

Okay, the report's done.

- I did that. - Thank you.

Shouldn't we send the witness to a hospital

and send the report first?

The chief is on the way, hold your horses.

His phone is off, let's just ditch him.

What's the point of him showing up?

He'll just check in and take off again.

Today's case is hardcore, I doubt he will.

He can't function without booze.

I heard he was a legend in homicide back in the day.

He solved that mutilation case a few years back.

What's a 'legend'? An unauthenticated story.

No one saw it.

I did, on the news.

He's got a President's Award for it.

The President will call and say he'll want it back.

Why'd someone that good come to our district?

Didn't the superintendent bring him?

Chief worked for him then.

That's bullcrap, no one brought him.

He may be drunk everyday, but he's a true detective.

Have some respect for your superiors.

Remember going on a case with him a month ago?

What the heck?

Isn't that the chief's car?

Like a true detective.

Gosh, my head...

Salute!

It's not a bumper car.

I'm getting a new one soon anyway.

I've heard that before.

Why don't you answer your phone?

My battery's low, I turned it off for important calls.

Your phone'll last longer than your car,

get a new one, will you?

Cars can be just swapped,

but phones have to be backed up.

You know how annoying that is?

These things are getting more complicated.

So what's the important call?

I gotta go to a funeral later.

Lt. KWON Chang's mother passed away.

Who?

You don't know him.

Set an alarm for midnight.

- What for? - For the funeral.

He's being taken care of. He says he was struck from behind.

So he passed out?

And he worked here for a long time?

Yes, 4 years.

He doesn't remember how he passed out.

Guards here get freaked out even with a phone call at night.

He got scared too, I guess.

The night guard says he saw a ghost.

- A ghost? - Weird, eh?

Wanna meet him?

Who? The ghost? Forget it.

What do you think?

I think he's stabilizing.

You idiot, not that.

Oh, right.

He can't be ruled out, but he has no motive,

and doesn't fit the profile.

Right, he doesn't look like a criminal.

No need to keep him, let him go.

Okay.

So why were the security cams busted?

Actually, the cams went out because of a blackout earlier.

Control room isn't accessible yet.

- Why not? - The door's locked.

Who's in charge?

The technicians.

Blackout killed the door, and the code doesn't work.

So useless...

Just get them to kick it down!

Right away, sir.

Any signs of intrusion?

No, all the doors were locked, and no other entry ways.

What do you make of it?

We don't really have any evidences to go on.

Seol-hee, age 45, chairman of Barron Holdings.

She's the heiress of Ilsin Group.

Married to Prof. PARK Jin-han,

he was named CEO of a Barron affiliate.

They're a celebrity couple.

He became famous for being a trophy husband.

Initial cause of death is cardiac arrest.

He accompanied her body until she arrived here.

Yo, Lego.

Sir?

Where did you get this file folder?

Online.

Good, order me one too, it's light and sturdy.

Her body vanished here for sure.

We kept a lid on the media,

but they'll swarm in in the morning.

Why'd anyone steal a body?

Some religions are against autopsy, maybe she was part of it?

She had a Christian name, Veronica.

Hey, they could have switched to something else.

Have you contacted the husband?

Should we call him?

He can't be easily summoned for nothing.

And you summon me for nothing everyday?

It's also the fact that

his wife just died, he might be in a bad mood.

I'm in a bad mood, you think I like being here?

Call him!

Morning sickness?

Not yet, it's only been 6 weeks.

7 weeks you mean, some never have it.

Hye-jin.

Yes, hello?

What?

Pardon?

What do you mean the body's gone?

I'll be right there.

Who was that?

Professor!

The cops.

I think something's wrong.

What do you mean the body's gone?

I better check it out.

Can't you send someone? Something's not right.

No, people could get suspicious.

Don't worry and get some dinner.

But we just ate together.

Got any painkillers around here?

There's some in that cabinet...

But what for?

I'll call you later.

Illegal Parking Warning.

What was that?

It's nothing, don't worry about it.

Did I tell you to wear that suit?

It wasn't this?

Got a lecture today? You look like a student.

Change the tie.

Sure.

How was the business trip?

Boring, obviously.

Got anything stronger?

Anything stronger will interfere with your jet lag.

Wine is your style.

Have some too.

I gotta get to work.

I got a strategy meeting, and a lecture too.

KIM will send you the meeting report.

Oh yeah, KIM won't be coming into work.

What?

I didn't like her much.

She's sloppy at her work.

I went to mother's 2 days ago.

She wasn't recovering well after the surgery,

so I told KIM to...

You go there a lot for a busy man.

Mom must be trying to take you away from me.

It was a short visit, so I told KIM not to report.

No.

I told her to report everything.

Why do you make all decisions by yourself?

Because it's my company.

Right, my mistake.

Drink this and get some rest.

Just my style.

Let's go away, cancel your class.

You don't take my job seriously, do you?

So cute.

You're cute when you're flustered.

Sorry for the late call, please come inside.

I'd like to apologize again for bringing you down so late.

I'll brief you on the incident as told by the night guard.

At 8:10 PM, he went to check on a weird noise coming from the morgue,

and found that Mrs. YOON's body had vanished.

But he must have been shaken up,

and his testimonies are inconsistent.

Please continue.

As I've said, what he witnessed...

Hye-jin: I keep getting weird calls from an unknown number.

Sorry.

The night guard isn't too credible.

Pardon me, could you get to the point?
