Detective K: Secret of the Living Dead Page #3

---

- I mean your...

- If you help me,

I'll help you catch the monster.

But

you can't ask anything about me.

Agreed. But help you with what?

I lost my memory.

I want to know who I am.

Fine.

But there's one problem.

What is it?

You don't call me sir.

Then don't call me ma'am.

Really?

That works.

Wait. Maybe not.

Is she really crazy?

By the way,

how did you know the dye maker would die?

The arrowhead from Song's corpse

had a letter which means 'to stain'.

My clever head figured out

it's a clue to his next killing...

The arrowhead!

Oh no! Brother!

Who's that?

- Must be the dead man's brother.

- What?

He only has a younger sister.

Right. He does.

Then who am I?

Well, I'm...

I'm his sister.

Then who is he?

- Well, I'm her Hus...

- My servant.

His name is Bang-ja.

Greet me.

Hello, ma'am.

He's dressed in disguise to protect me.

He will be examined soon. Please be quick.

- Of course, sir.

- Let's go.

Thank you, sir!

A servant?

Find the arrowhead, Bang-ja.

Are you all right?

Our lady lost consciousness

from the shock of his death!

Oh no, ma'am!

I'm fine. Put me down.

No.

Put me down! Let me off!

Pretend you're asleep, will you?

People will think it's odd if you don't.

You really don't remember anything?

I don't even know my name.

Then let's make one.

My name?

We'll have to go around together like this.

I can't just call you 'hey you'.

And I'm an outstanding name maker.

Listen and choose.

Bertha, Dorcas, Edna, Gretel...

Don't get cute with me.

Let's see.

Your fair skin is like the moon.

'Wol' means 'moon'. And you're young.

How about Wol-young?

That's a pretty name.

Simplified 'A-gyo'...

It could mean someone

who makes ox hide glue.

It could also mean shinbone.

So, it could be a hunter or a butcher next.

That's so weird.

I haven't seen her eat in days.

Even if your parents die, you feel hungry.

Why won't she eat?

I knew a crazy girl back home.

She'd run around everywhere

without eating for almost a week.

And you know how strong they are?

They can drag a couple of men no problem!

You should be careful, sir.

Don't get involved because she's pretty.

Hi.

The flower suits you.

Now, let's see you smile.

Smile.

Don't act pretty. Just

smile like the others.

See? She's crazy.

- Let's go home.

- Yes, sir.

Hot! Hot!

I'll protect you, sir!

Stay still!

Sir!

What about me?

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

You got cut. How could you be fine?

- Let's see.

- It's okay.

Don't be stubborn! Give me your hand.

Who were those men?

Why change subjects? You saw it.

Some people can heal faster than others.

What if I'm not human?

What if I'm a monster like him?

You're not a monster.

Vampires can't last in the sun like you.

They crave human blood, but you don't.

So, you're not a monster.

What do you know?

I can't control my powers.

I can even sense the air

passing through me.

When I smell blood, I feel

a suffocating thirst.

At this rate,

I could bite your neck like that monster.

You may become a monster after biting me,

but my neck is fine.

Your fear of becoming a monster

means you're not one yet.

All I see is a good person who's

afraid of becoming a monster.

Aren't you afraid of me?

I trust the human in you, Wol-young.

I trust you will not to become a monster.

You're stronger and more

upright than any man.

I'm not afraid of you.

I'll always keep my neck open to you.

Why don't you use the front gate?

I searched throughout Ganghwa.

I can't find her, sir.

This is...

No sign at all?

No, sir.

I think she left Ganghwa.

Give me that.

Look.

Still can't find her?

Get it now?

Have you seen her?

Forget it. Go back home.

No, sir. I'll stay and protect you.

It's okay. Just take

good care of yourself.

Then I'll be going, sir.

- Use the gate!

- Yes, sir.

Wait.

Am I the monster in this book?

Does this look like me?

I don't look like this!

My teeth are straight.

And it says vampires burn in the sunlight.

But I'm fine!

That's for vampires who

sucked human blood.

So, if I suck blood, I'd

be afraid of sunlight too?

Vampires must drink blood to survive.

If they don't, they'll go weak.

Then

they'll die!

Look.

You're scared of me, right?

Yes.

What's so funny here?

I could hear you outside!

Think of our history together!

All those nights together!

How can you ditch me for a crazy girl?

You'll regret leaving me someday, sir!

You're so lucky, b*tch.

If I ever bite someone, he'd be the first.

By the way, sir.

I must have menopause.

I keep getting hot flashes.

See? I'm burning inside!

I'm hot! Get back!

Don't do this!

Get back, sir!

What are you staring at?

Get ready! We have to go!

Don't be a burden on us.

She won't budge.

Why you!

Stop! You're asking to die!

What's with you, sir?

What are you doing?

Stop it, sir!

Are you a pervert?

What's wrong?

Get away! Stop!

Did it really say 'A-gyo' on the arrowhead?

Why? You think I can't even read?

Just let me see.

No way! I'm mad you think I can't read!

I'll bite you!

It's a simplified character.

Simplified characters were made to...

Wol-gyo.

You read it wrong.

I knew it was Wol-gyo.

Of course, I knew.

I was right again.

This pond is called Wol-gyo.

Ganghwa Hall used to be here.

Ganghwa Hall?

Some say it's the revenge of those

who died in the Ganghwa Hall fire.

Then the next victim must

be connected to this place.

If the fire here was plotted

to kill innocent lives,

he's killing those

involved to get revenge?

That ghastly fool!

He must have his reasons.

The monster must've once been a human too.

Like me.

There's sadness in his eyes.

Didn't you lose your memory?

How do you know about Ganghwa Hall?

I'm not sure.

It just came to me.

I saw Ganghwa Hall here.

The arrowhead pointed to Ganghwa Hall?

The next victim is connected

to the fire 30 years ago.

Ask realtors and find out

why Ganghwa Hall is gone.

I'll investigate more on Ha Byung-eun.

He must be Ha Byung-eun's father.

Why hold a sacrifice instead of

wishing his son's spirit well?

Nan?

Have you forgotten?

Did you think it was over?

You watched me die, but lived comfortably?

Just as you murdered my wife and son,

I'll destroy you and your family!

Forgive me!

I deserve to die!

I couldn't protect you to the end.

I'm sorry.

Son!

- Ganghwa Hall?

- Yes.

I heard Ganghwa Hall

burned down 30 years ago.

What happened?

It wasn't just a fire.

It was treason.

Treason?

They say that the Crown

Prince was poisoned there.

So, the Jeong family was annihilated

and a pond was made there.

The Jeong family owned Ganghwa Hall?

He killed your son!

Who is he?

Jeong In-yul!

The Jeong family has been loyal

to the king for generations.

Jeong In-yul and his father

were very loyal too.

But they were executed

for plotting treason.

Jeong In-yul...

He's back from hell!

Jeong In-yul...

A royal award?

For those who reported the

Crown Prince's murder?

Hong Jeong-ho, Song Gap-young, Ha Il-ju...
