Detective K: Secret of the Living Dead Page #4

---

Hong...

Hong Tae-mun, Song Pil-geun, Ha Byung-eun!

He killed the sons of those here in order!

There must be two more names.

Choi Il-kyu?

- The owner of Yeon-mi Lodge?

- Yes.

The land and building

belonged to the Jeong family.

But after they died, everything

went to Choi Il-kyu.

Then the next target must

be his son, Jae-kyung.

He knew his turn would come,

so he read up on monsters.

Jeong In-yul...

He's getting revenge on those

who reported the treason.

Today's the 12th!

What about it, sir?

Hong Tae-mun died on the 3rd.

Song died on the 6th.

And Ha died on the 9th!

There's no time!

We can't fight a vampire

with our bare hands!

Then how do we stop it, sir?

Strike it with silver or burn it!

If you don't burn its heart,

it could be revived with blood.

The killer will come here tonight.

He has extraordinary skills

and won't be easy to fight.

You must shoot...

You must shoot him with fiery arrows!

Yes, sir!

Jeong In-yul!

You and your father

poisoned the Crown Prince!

But you want revenge?

Rather than repent,

you took innocent lives!

You will pay for your crime!

Pay for my crime?

You'll die here too!

Pain, you say?

What do you know about never-ending pain!

How dare you tell me to pay for my crime!

Put him down.

Though you seek blood now,

were you not once a man of honor?

Since your memory isn't back,

you must not know how you died.

Why?

Think your death was different from mine?

When you remember how you

died and who killed you,

you'll become just like me.

No.

I won't be a monster like you.

Drink blood.

Find your painful memories

and get revenge on the

day of the full moon!

You must live!

You want to turn me into a real vampire?

Why did you try to give me blood?

I wanted to save you.

Why?

What if I bite you?

You'll become a vampire too.

Do you wish to live on innocent blood?

Even so, I would never drink

someone else's blood.

Then I'll bite Seo-pil for you,

so you won't be lonely.

Being with the crazy girl,

you've lost your mind, sir.

Yes, ma'am.

SIR HA IL-JU AND CHOI IL-KYU DIED

No warnings this time?

There must be another target.

Seo-pil? Wake up.

Let me hold your hand.

I said wake up!

I'll bite Seo-pil for you.

Get dressed, already!

Yes, sir.

Someone will die in 3 days.

We must find the last informer before then.

Choi Il-kyu must have the royal award too.

Why hide a proud certificate?

Was he ashamed of it?

The full moon is in 3 days.

It's when the spirits'

powers are the strongest!

Wait!

The Full Moon Fest...

His Majesty will be here!

Sir?

Please run away.

I can't protect you any longer!

What do you fools want?

Sir!

Stay back. I'll handle them.

But...

I'm immortal now, sir.

My body is on fire.

I can't control my new powers!

- Seo-pil! Actually...

- Listen!

I'll have mercy and give you time to run.

Or else today will be

your last day as humans!

Foolish thugs!

I'll feast off your blood!

I drew the bite marks on you!

You have what I want.

If you give it to me, I'll go quietly.

This will help you decide.

Stop!

When I awoke in the mountain,

a monk gave it to me.

The case 30 years ago...

Maybe the perpetrators and

victims should be switched.

Those thugs are trying to hide something!

What did they want? What was inside?

It was a scroll with strange secret codes.

Secret codes?

My clever brain would've solved it!

What a pity.

Dang!

- Why you little!

- What?

I remember!

Secret codes are written

with certain patterns.

If you find the pattern, it can be read.

Where's that clever brain of yours?

Huh, sir?

I knew it!

I was wrong.

Could you write up another one?

Right here! Just bite him!

Get back, sir.

You're confusing me!

Wait!

They used Korean alphabet!

The 1st and 3rd lines are consonants

written with vertical symmetry.

The middle line has vowels

drawn with triangles.

The circles mean 'A'.

The triangles mean 'O' or 'U'.

Circles with lines mean 'E' and so on.

POISON THE CROWN PRINCE AND FRAME

JEONG IN-YUL AND HIS FATHER

I knew it!

Those who reported the treason

were the real traitors!

What do you mean?

It's a conspiracy pact.

The Crown Prince's death was fabricated!

Those who poisoned him

framed it on Jeong In-yul

and his father as treason!

So, Jeong In-yul is

getting revenge on them?

What do you know about never-ending pain!

I don't know how he became a vampire.

But by killing the traitors' sons,

he wanted them to suffer

more pain than death.

He'll kill the last traitor's son next!

Song Gap-young.

Ha Il-ju.

Choi Il-kyu.

And

Kim...

And who, sir?

Kim Shin?

Kim Shin?

Your father, sir?

Jeong In-yul knew me.

How dare you tell me to pay for my crime!

He knows I'm the last informer's son.

Kim Shin?

What brings you here, Min?

Give me blood.

I want...

blood.

The subjects are watching.

Let them.

I should hold my beloved's

hand on a night like this.

Mother!

Father!

Prince!

Our son must've had a bad dream.

What happened 30 years ago?

Jeong In-yul is the one who called me here.

Jeong In-yul died!

I saw it with my own eyes!

If you don't tell me,

I'll hear it from him.

I did it for you!

Did you make a wish?

Yes, sir.

I wished for His Majesty's

JEONG IN-YUL

quick recovery, Your Highness.

You make me an unfilial son.

How is that so, Your Highness?

The world knows you tend to

His Majesty every night.

I just did what a subject should.

I was kidding.

Your Highness?

What did you wish for?

I wished for Joseon

to be returned to its owner.

Joseon belongs to His Majesty and you, sir.

A king should not be the

owner of a country.

The people should be.

Joseon doesn't belong to the people now.

Those who must work for

the people rule them.

They make factions and fight

to keep what's theirs.

They try to control the

king and alienate others.

They frame their opposers as traitors.

They're the ones who own Joseon.

When I become king,

I'll take Joseon away from them

and give it back to the people.

I trust you will, sir.

See the lanterns?

Do you know what the people wished for?

The people make small cries.

It's their leaders who raise their voices.

Joseon doesn't need people

to talk for the civilians.

We need people to listen

to their small cries.

I want to make it so that civilians

will not suffer from hunger and pain.

Did you find anything?

It's been long since I

sent you to Ganghwa Hall.

Promise me first, sir.

You found a way?

Tell me.

Why are you hesitating?

Do you wish to see your

entire family be annihilated?

What is it?

The Crown Prince has passed away!

What?

But how?

Sir! Sir!

Please run away! Your

father's been arrested!

My father? Why?

That he poisoned His Highness...

That's preposterous!

Your Highness! You must leave at once.

What do you mean?

Where is His Highness?

The young prince is in danger.

Please change.

Let's go.

Where are you going?

You know very well that my

father would never do this.

He's been framed!

Those who killed His Highness
