Ms. Choi Hye-eun?
I guess I had your last name wrong.
Seo Hye-eun doesn't know who her father is,
but Choi Hye-eun does.
She knows the father who abandoned her.
So the kidnapping was to get your revenge.
I heard the subjects
of Choi Dong-eok's research started with orphans.
How much do you know?
I know that you're the mastermind behind the kidnapping case.
The girl had a big mouth.
Anyway,
what's the reason you stopped my car out of nowhere?
I apologize for that. You just seemed to be in a hurry.
As far as I know, you're Dr. Choi's business partner,
but I was wondering if you were missing out on something important.
I think I have to ask you the same question.
How much do you know?
I was always curious because I couldn't install CCTV in the lab,
but he recorded a video to document his research.
Was this inside the empty safe?
That's a secret.
How interesting.
I was curious as well.
The kidnapping and the murder happened in the same time frame,
so I wondered what the connection between these two cases was.
You must be close to the murder suspect.
That curiosity has nothing to do with you earning money.
That's true.
But I was put in a difficult spot thanks to my partner's death.
That must be why you were going to that empty house,
hoping to find something useful.
I see you also tailed me.
I thought tailing you would make me some money.
I guess I need to hear more of your story.
How did you get to know me?
I was monitoring Dr. Choi's house
and discovered that he had an interesting guest come over.
All the guests that visit him
are subjects of my interest.
For a long time,
X Capital invested in companies with potential.
However,
this isn't about potential. It's about changing--
X CAPITAL NAMED ONE OF SINGAPORE'S TOP 5 INVESTMENT COMPANIES
You do more than what's on your website.
I see you also did a background check.
You have to be diligent to make money.
I'm sure you aren't here to sell me the videos that you diligently collected.
Before Mr. Park Cheol-won was arrested,
he sent me the last hard drive.
Dr. Choi's wife
brought Ro-hee's pendant
and opened it with a small key.
What are you doing?
Do you even know what this is?
How dare you touch Ro-hee's records? Are you crazy?!
I'm trying to leave a real record.
I confirmed two things.
First, that pendant and the key
aren't what they seem.
Second, the reason So Jin-yu had to die.
So?
Dr. Choi's research materials are in that pendant?
Strangely charming.
What about the key? Do you have it?
Wouldn't that make sense for us to reach a deal?
I can't trust you.
You can decide whether or not to trust me
after you open the pendant with the key.
No risk, no magic.
If you want magic, you need to risk it.
Life is about gambling.
What are the conditions?
Today at 3:00 p.m., on the third floor of the parking lot in Yeouido Mart,
there will be a black sedan with the number 1652 next to Column 15.
Put ten million dollars in cash
in the trunk of that car and give me a call.
I don't have to repeat the plate number, right?
CHAPTER 10. COUNTERATTACK
BASED ON THE NOVEL THE DAY OF KIDNAPPING BY JEONG HAE-YEON
It is a flash drive.
Can you open it?
No.
It's been custom-made,
meaning that it can only be opened with a specific key.
So if you try to open it with something else,
all the data inside will be damaged.
Do you absolutely need the key? Is there no other way?
Didn't I just say
that there's no other way?
Do you always talk so rudely?
Or are you a foreigner?
What an odd man you are.
Jeez.
What?
Dollars?
So you are a foreigner.
Come back next…
See you later!
Score.
No risk, no magic.
If you want magic, you need to risk it.
Life is about gambling.
Seo Hye-eun.
Hye-eun.
Don't you have anything else to say to me?
Hold on.
Just let the meeting finish.
I'll take responsibility.
I heard you're on suspension.
Sorry?
-Stop the meeting now. -Yes, sir.
Excuse me.
We're late. Eat quickly.
OUTBOUND VESSEL ENTRANCE PERMIT
Choi Ro…
Choi Ro-hee!
Damn it.
Damn it.
Kim Myeong-jun!
What?
Damn it!
Damn it.
Mr. Kim Myeong-jun.
Nothing good will come
from running away every single time.
Where's the kid?
I said where's the kid?
I'm here to look for her too!
What do you mean?
Why were you at Dr. Mo's hospital?
I know what Choi Ro-hee has gone through.
Don't try to lie to me.
They took Ro-hee.
We were going to the hospital to see Hee-ae
and to end everything there.
But those guys took Ro-hee.
And they also tried to kill Dr. Mo.
But Dr. Mo
found this location
in one of the men's phones
and that they're going to leave Korea soon.
This is everything I know.
Are you…
referring to the people who had Ro-hee's ransom?
Yes, I am.
CAPTAIN
By the way, who tailed Ju-hyeok?
I think our captain looked into it.
-Let's look for her. -Sorry?
Hurry up and get moving. We don't have time.
Hurry!
-Hello. -Hello.
Can we see the record of the permits that went through today?
Ro-hee!
Ro-hee!
Choi Ro-hee.
Where are you, Choi Ro-hee?
Ro-hee!
Choi Ro-hee!
DETECTIVE PARK SANG-YUN
Hello, sir.
Call the Maritime Affairs Office
and ask if they permitted any personal yachts in today.
Personal yachts? Why?
If we don't find Choi Ro-hee, we'll lose her forever.
Look into it as soon as possible.
Answer me!
Park Sang-yun.
I can overlook you taking the wiretapper
through Ju-hyeok.
But you're on suspension.
Don't you know what will happen if you keep this up?
Where are you?
Why are you acting on your own again?
Hey.
Park Sang-yun!
Sir.
Dr. Choi had another investor.
He's trying to smuggle Choi Ro-hee out of the country.
We may not be able to find her again.
I really want to close the case that I started.
So you're going to stir up trouble?
Who can I trust if I can't trust my team in this situation?
What do you mean by that?
Please help me out once.
Please, sir.
What did he say?
Did you bring the documents to receive them on his behalf?
Yes.
PARK CHEOL-WON
Oh, and my ID.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE
Here you go.
Thank you.
I'd like all the money in cash, please.
Yes, ma'am.
