A Bona Fide Killer (유부녀 킬러)

- Hey, Manager Lee. Get me a latte. - Okay.

Mr. Han!

Hey, not sure if you remember.

But we made a bet yesterday while drinking.

The first one to pass out had to buy snacks at the rest area.

Mr. Bong.

Team Leader Bong.

Here you go.

Oh, thank you, Mr. Han.

I'll go easy on your card.

No, just go all out.

Just go big. Go big.

All right, I'll go big.

Everyone, let's go eat!

What's with me?

Why am I scared of him?

What? Did I dream something last night?

Oh, my, I have heartburn.

Oh, why does my shoulder hurt so much?

Oh, dear, my neck.

- Director Yoo! - What?

Have some of this first.

A hangover cure?

I don't get hangovers. You have it.

Oh, you don't have one.

You were amazing yesterday, Director.

Why? Did something happen yesterday?

No, nothing.

Oh, good work.

It was your first scene, so you were a bit flustered, right?

You did well.

Thank you.

Director, can I ask you something?

What is it?

Why'd we handle those guys like that yesterday?

It was different from other meetings.

Didn't you hear? It was a pre-meeting.

Oh, my back...

They turned themselves in?

We got a call at the station as soon as the sun came up.

The old man said he wanted to surrender.

And he confessed to everything without even being asked.

He admitted they harvested the organs

from all seven missing victims and buried them.

He even gave them the burial sites.

He said it all happened in that warehouse.

The crime scene investigator is currently collecting DNA samples.

But why are they all in such bad shape?

Apparently they got into a fight and beat each other up.

Bad enough to end up like this?

Well, we can't know the reason

because no one will say what they fought over.

Anyway, that's what they said happened.

What about recent guests?

They hadn't been operating for the past month,

so there were no guests.

So there wasn't a guest list either.

Did you check the CCTV?

Oh, well...

That's the strange part. Nothing's there.

What do you mean? Was it erased?

Well, they said they turned it off.

We don't know whether it was deleted or never existed.

In 15 years as a detective, I've never had a case handed to me this easily.

We've got the scene, the evidence, and the confession.

CCTV or not, it doesn't matter.

No, just...

Step out of the vehicle.

I said, step out.

I told you, it's urgent. That's why we have to hurry.

We're responding to an emergency call.

That's why I'm asking you to show me your ID.

Oh, you're really dedicated. Just let us through.

Come on, where do you think you're going?

Someone's dying right now.

I need to perform CPR. Have a good day.

I understand. Just show me your ID.

Arrest him! Get him!

- Show me your ID! Grab him! - Darn it.

Yeah, Beom, what's going on?

We were checking an ambulance heading towards the pension.

And the man inside suddenly tried to run, so we caught him.

He was wearing a doctor's gown. Looks like he's the organ-harvesting surgeon.

- The surgeon? - Come on. Show me your ID. Hurry up.

Huh? Get him!

- Hurry, show me your ID! - Okay.

What's his name?

Jo Dong Min?

It's not Jo Dong Min.

It's Jo Dong Man. Man.

He says it's Jo Dong Man. Did you check his ID?

Mr. Jo here is quite skilled.

So clients are supposed to come once every hour.

Just wait at the entrance to the pension and catch them one by one.

Got it.

Keep checking vehicles. A buyer's coming every hour.

Where did all these darn flies come from?

Flies?

Die, you punk!

Get on your knees, you punk!

Get on your knees, you punk!

Hey, get on your knees.

Get on your knees! Hurry!

Kneel down, you punks!

Isn't handing them over to the police just a waste of time?

They won't be properly punished anyway.

How do you know that?

Whether they'll be punished or not.

Do you just distrust and resent the police, the law, and the courts by default?

No, well, not exactly like that, but...

A pre-meeting means we let the law handle it first.

It's about respecting its role and responsibility.

Of course, the system has its limits.

Sometimes verdicts result in only minimal punishment.

And sometimes, those who have no business interfering

end up obstructing rightful justice.

But that doesn't mean we should dismiss the system entirely, right?

We're not trying to create a lawless world, are we?

I think they do their job, and we do ours.

Sometimes we simply do what they cannot.

Director Yoo!

But then again, who knows.

Someday, today's pre-meeting might become an official one.

If they forget about us.

more terrifying than the law.

A despicable organ trafficking ring

that kidnapped hikers,

and secretly buried their bodies

It has been confirmed that

when they feel the safest and most at ease.

Oh, I see. So you support Kingfisher? Got it.

I understand your opinion.

But as police officers, we have a duty to stay true to our responsibilities.

No, he said it was a tip-off call, but instead of giving me anything,

he just told me outright not to catch Kingfisher.

Oh, seriously...

Hey, don't even mention it.

Every time a major crime happens,

people act like Kingfisher is some kind of hero.

Jeez, it's so distracting that I can barely work.

At most, it'll be another month or two.

Something else will happen somewhere soon, won't it?

- Make sure the team leader eats well. - Okay.

We're heading out for a stakeout in Inseong-dong.

- Good luck. - Yes, sir!

Take care.

It's already this late...

Should we order dinner?

The victims.

Pardon?

When the perpetrator's side is blocked, break through the victim's side.

So far, Kingfisher's crime intervals ranged from 7 to 60 days.

Like Mr. Jang said, another one will happen somewhere soon.

What if we chase the case

that's going to happen instead of the one that's already happened?

The case that's going to happen?

Kingfisher's next target.

The next target? Who is it?

No, I don't want to go.

Why?

You're going to a kids' cafe with daycare today.

It's going to be so much fun, isn't it?

Mommy isn't coming.

Yul, I told you I have to go to work today, so I can't, right?

That's right, Yul.

Mommy has to go to work today, so she can't go.

Instead, I will buy you new Baby Shark stickers tonight. Okay?

No, don't buy me any.

This won't do. Honey, you go ahead.

You said you have to leave early for a local assignment today. Hurry.

It's still fine.

We're going to get right up, right, Yul?

No, I won't get up.

Kwon Yul.

If you don't get up by the time I count to five,

I'll pick you up myself and take you out.

Do you want me to do that?

No, don't!

I'm counting.

One, two...
