- Why you!

YEON-MI LODGE

SONG PIL-GEUN

Sir? Did you poo in bed?

Or is it horse dung?

What is this, a barn?

It's not what she promised.

The bathroom is so far! I

almost peed on the way!

It's the busy season.

It's perfect for a rude fool.

And what's with this breakfast?

Shouldn't they give us fried eggs at least?

This is why you don't make

deals with a middleman.

I'm taking a few towels when I leave.

Sir?

My sister asked you to come

without discussing with me.

CHOI IL-KYU

OWNER OF YEON-MI LODGE

What happened to your father?

He's been like this for a month.

Even the best doctors don't

know what is wrong with him.

A book on exorcism?

The magistrate is busy with the fest

and has no plans to investigate.

When two men burned to

death by a peculiar fire...

Two?

When did this happen?

A man died by the same fire last night.

What is the Full Moon Fest that

the magistrate can't investigate?

In the past, royal officials

would all gather to celebrate.

His Majesty will be coming this time.

The magistrate must want

to keep things quiet.

Please catch the killer

before the Full Moon Fest.

Just by me being here, the

killer is practically caught.

Pardon?

I'm called a detective and a shaman too.

For I can find a killer just

by looking at the corpse,

I'm like a possessed shaman who knows all.

Shall we begin?

Is he usually like that?

Worse, sir. He must not be feeling well.

Less bragging than usual.

POLICE SEEK DETAILS ON THIS MAN

- You know Sir Song Pil-geun?

- Yes.

He was burned by the ghost fire!

There's no such thing as a ghost fire!

- His servant saw everything!

- What?

The body burned, but he saw no fire!

No way!

Sir!

Are you all right?

You must've gone weak, sir.

I thought you'd fly all the way back home.

Don't exaggerate.

- The footstep is...

- It's mine.

Right.

I knew that.

Don't tamper with the crime scene!

The burn mark looks like a man!

Do you know what's the most painful death?

Burning to death.

But the way he died shows no

sign of squirming in pain.

It means that he couldn't

move before he was burned.

- An invisible fire...

- And...

I know the killer always

returns to the crime scene.

Sir?

See the bamboo hat behind you?

He keeps looking this way.

Bamboo hat!

You'll just hit me and go?

How rude.

Rude?

Me?

You hit me and didn't say sorry.

Still, how dare you try

to touch my clothes?

How dare I?

How dare you!

Wait!

Mind your language!

Where are your manners?

Stay out, servant.

Servant?

Hear that, sir? She called me a servant!

Sir! Be careful!

Are you all right, sir?

I'll get you!

Do you know me?

The monk?

The Buddhist monk on the poster?

Did anyone come for his body?

You're the first to come for him.

So, all you know is that

he's a Buddhist monk?

Why do you ask that?

Very well then.

Wait! Show me your identity tag!

Who are you, sir?

Didn't Sir Choi Jae-kyung mention us?

You're the detective from the capital?

Yes.

There's no case I can't solve.

- I'm the best detective in...

- Excuse me, sir.

Where did she go?

I wish to see Song Pil-geun's corpse.

That's impossible, sir.

The magistrate gave orders

never to show it to anyone.

Of course not! If the magistrate said so.

On second thought, maybe

he didn't say never.

There is no such thing as never.

- You could sneak a peek at night.

- Good.

- I'll come back at night.

- Yes, sir.

What did you draw, sir?

Isn't she the woman from before?

That lady...

Did you notice?

Well,

she was a bit odd and very strong.

She's gorgeous.

Not again.

Why draw a pretty woman

at a time like this?

I need it to investigate.

Investigate what?

If you want to meet her, just say it.

She's there wherever we go!

That means she's connected

to this case somehow.

- Then...

- Maybe...

She could be chasing us.

Us? Why, sir?

Sir! It's me!

You must find out who she is

and why she's after this case.

Yes, sir.

This rough chap looks suspicious.

It's a woman.

And she's pretty.

Are you going blind in your old age?

Forget it.

I'll find her. You can go back home.

No, sir!

I'll find this fool! I mean this woman!

Look.

There is soot in his nose.

He was burned when he was alive.

It appears we're here for the same purpose.

Would you like to take a look?

Or shall we fight and bring in the guards?

An invisible fire...

It seems he was fatally

wounded before burning.

Then the scar must be somewhere.

While burying the dead,

two corpses were discovered.

The burnt one wasn't decayed at all.

Only the burnt corpse vanished!

Is it a real vampire?

The arrow precisely struck the heart.

He didn't just want the

blood, but to kill him.

'Yeom' means to stain.

Why did the killer leave a sign?

Perhaps a forewarned murder?

This letter has something

to do with staining or dyes.

Go to the painting plant and

meet the painters for clues.

I'll search the dye house here.

HA BYUNG-EUN

Why are you here?

How long will you follow me?

I saw someone on fire too.

Where?

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure where, who,

or why I remember that.

He must've been killed by something

that looks human but is not.

Something that looks human but is not?

Are they really strong and fast?

And heal fast if they're hurt?

You know about vampires?

Vampires?

Vampires are immortal.

They don't get hurt or die.

Immortal?

I have a question.

You're definitely in my memory.

Who am I?

In becoming a monster,

your memory was lost.

If you want your memory back,

drink blood.

Are you all right?

You fool!

How dare you disturb the

laws of this world!

I know that you're behind

the ominous deaths!

How dare you try to live

by killing innocent people!

Innocent people?

Who?

How dare you!

Think you can get away with

murder because you're immortal?

I know how to banish you!

Do you want to remember?

Then watch this!

Sir! What happened!

We must get the arrow out.

Hold him down now!

That's a good idea.

But aren't we in the same class?

Stop giving me orders!

Hurry up!

I will, but watch it.

Sir?

- Are you all right?

- Yes.

Isn't she odd, sir?

Did you sense it too?

You too, sir?

Yes.

I thought she was strange from the start.

She goes around alone.

She talks down to you and gives commands.

She's out of this world, sir.

It all adds up to one thing.

What?

She's crazy.

Crazy girls don't wear flowers

on their heads these days.

Try all you want, but you can't fool me!

If you want to remember, drink blood.

She fought off a vampire. Is she one too?

No, she's can't be.

If she is, she can't be fine in the sun.

And she wouldn't have saved me.

If he catches the monster

before I find my memory...

But she's similar to him.

He's arrogant, but has a useful brain.

She's quite arrogant.

But her ability to fight

him is quite useful.

With my brain and this woman's

body, we can catch the monster.

Work with her?

My brain and...

Seo-pil's body!

Damn it!

This woman's body!

Oops. Did I say that out loud?

It's not what it sounded like.
