"RED FILE"
EP. 1- DOCUMENTS
The cold night seems to blown on everyone's skin tonight as another breaking case have been made. people gather outside the police tape, reporter's begged the police for answers.
Yet despite that, everyone agrees on one thing. they already speculate on who was the cause without needing any evidence.
Police
Ah! Detective Choi! I'm so glad you could make it in time.
The police man smiled at the man, who was wearing a big trench coat with a cap that mostly covered his whole identity, a cigarette dangling in between his lips. he took a puff before pulling the cigarette away from his mouth.
Choi Hyun-woo
No need for formality. it is simply my job.
Name: Choi Hyun-woo (Detective Choi)
Age:27
origin: Korea.
occupation: Professional detective.
Police
oh, don't be too modest,detective.
Police
I hope that the trip here from Korea didn't exhausted you out. this is quite a serious case..
Choi Hyun-woo
I would managed.
(Choi Hyun-woo thoughts: though I much more perfer being in my room resting.)
Police
well, if that's the case then gladly.
Police
then, lets head inside. I could fill you in the details along the way.
The Noises of the commotion outside seem to case as the two entered the building. a bunch of police tape were barricading the broken doors. it was simply a poor maintenance building. if Choi Hyun-woo would touch it, the whole building would collapse.
once they arrive, Choi Hyun-woo began to stared at the scene.
there we still lingering police, gathering evidence that could be handy. but the scene was brutal. a bunch of bodies that were already in body bag are everywhere. tools that were used to end their lives was scattered. this was already an Alarming to Choi Hyun-woo. papers.. maybe documents..was left neglected on a barely functioning table.
Choi Hyun-woo then waleks closer to the table, taking a look at the paper and it's contents.
Police
those are some hospital documents for the patients. but surprisingly the patients were the exact one as the victims.
the police man spoke up, pointing at the scattered bodybags.
Police
It is either their abduction was already planned and use their hospital documents for more information before doing the act.
Police
but the confusing things is..
Police
neither does the victims have any background of debts.. Even we spoke to their families, and they highly never had any enemies that would do this much damage.
Police
Yet the only thing they had in common are they have backgrounds of mental health issues and some were homeless.
that seems to made Choi Hyun-woo confused.
Choi Hyun-woo
so they were targeting vulnerable citizens then?
Choi Hyun-woo
but that still didn't make sense.
Choi Hyun-woo
why put all efforts on random people and go and find about their hospital information?
Choi Hyun-woo
if it's a reckless abduction, they wouldn't be doing any of this.
Choi Hyun-woo
could it be they're aiming at something?
Police
thats a...possibility..
Police
but why aim on the vulnerable people?
Choi Hyun-woo
this could be a hate crime. but there are still some possibilities.
both of them went silent. Choi Hyun-woo then look back down at the documents and saw something that caught his eyes.
Choi Hyun-woo noticed a red mark. like a signature.
it seems to be in a Chinese language. Even if Choi Hyun-woo learned a bit of the language. this was still beyond his level.
Choi Hyun-woo
what is this?
he pointed at the signature.
the police man look over and seem to frown.
Police
thats the signature of our first suspect.
that seem to made Choi Hyun-woo's eyebrow raised in confusion.
Police
The Hēilóng (黑龙). which means black dragon. it's a crime organization that was infamous for debt collectors.
Police
despite them being our first suspect, we simply can't arrest them since there are lack of evidence of debt collecting that happen here.
Police
but that signature.
he pointing at the signature with firm manner.
Police
was surely came from them.
Choi Hyun-woo stared at the signature again. the way it was written was smooth. almost like it was made with patience and not someone who was in a hurry with such situation.
Choi Hyun-woo
if I were them, their hand writing should be hurried and messy.
Choi Hyun-woo
it seems like they wanted to be known.
Police
what are you implying detective?
Choi Hyun-woo
I'm implying this could be forged.
Choi Hyun-woo
although I may not know what they do but forged signature was common.
Choi Hyun-woo
it's either they were framed, or they were just attention seeking at this point.
Choi Hyun-woo
cause they...really get my attention.
Police
you're not the only one who does.
Police
there would be a held interrogation tomorrow. it would be an honor for you to meet the chief and get to interrogate our first suspect.
