SHADOW
EP • 3 Illegal Police (1)
Dong-Hyeon pushed the door a few times, wondering if it had rusted. Then, with a creaking sound, the door opened with an eerie noise.

Sigh... I guess I should either fix it or scrap it.
Dong-Hyeon glared at the door for a moment, then decided that it would be better to repair it rather than scrap it. He took each step down the stairs that led through the open door into the dark, pitch-black space.
The sound of Donghyun's trudging down the stairs, step by step, began to resonate. Perhaps it was the shoes he was wearing, or perhaps it was the eerily cold and dark atmosphere that heightened his sense of fear, but the sound was louder than usual.

After descending for a long time, there was only minimal light, and the pungent smell of blood lingered. As the rotten smell grew, Dong-hyeon squinted and turned on the light.
When I turned on the light, I could clearly see barbed wire fences that looked like they had been built to confine someone, and inside some of the fences, there were traces of blood that looked like they had been there a long time ago.
김동현
Still the same
Donghyun walked a little further in that state.

At the end of the hallway, on the left, was a prison cell. Someone was glaring at Dong-hyun there. Perhaps they'd heard Dong-hyun's footsteps earlier and knew someone was coming.
이진우
who is this?
김동현
.....
이진우
He asked me who I was!
Donghyun stared at the grumbling Jinwoo, then slowly opened his mouth. Then he softly called Jinwoo's name, like a grim reaper seeking the dead.
김동현
Lee Jin-woo
이진우
......
When Dong-Hyeon called his name, he flinched, swallowed hard, and carefully took a step back behind the iron bars.
김동현
You're Lee Jin-woo, right?
이진우
Yes, I am Detective Lee Jin-woo.
Dong-Hyeon couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw Jin-Woo Lee calling himself 'Detective'.
김동현
under?
김동현
Inspector?
Lee Jin-woo stood up and walked towards the barbed wire fence in one stride. It was dark and hard to see, but as he got closer, his face became clear. He had a friendly, kind demeanor, like any neighborhood police officer.
As Jinwoo Lee walked towards Donghyun, they stood with the barbed wire between them. Donghyun said nothing, waiting for Jinwoo Lee's next move and words.
이진우
Who are you to arrest the police of the Republic of Korea?
김동현
Well... can I call you a police officer?
김동현
Do you really think you are upright?
김동현
Or....
As Dong-hyun hesitated, Jin-woo swallowed, feeling uneasy. Dong-hyun took a step closer to the barbed wire, slammed his head against it, and lowered his head. Then he slowly raised his head and looked at Jin-woo.
김동현
Is there a background that is watching?
Jinwoo Lee stopped after hearing that, and Donghyun continued speaking.
김동현
How did you get dressed?
이진우
.......
김동현
You're asking how much money you have to spend to become a police officer in South Korea.
하여주
yes?
하여주
You don't have any?
경찰
Yeah, that guy hasn't shown up for work for a month.
하여주
A month...?
하여주
There's no way that's possible?
하여주
I got a report yesterday!
경찰
declaration?
경찰
Was there a report received yesterday?
The police officer asked a colleague standing next to him, who shook his head.
경찰
▫️There wasn't any
경찰
Student, shouldn't you be going to school now?
경찰
I guess I mistook you for someone else.
하여주
Ha... that can't be...
하여주
I clearly saw it written as Lee Jin-woo!
Ring ring ...
At that moment, the phone rang. It could have been just a regular call, but I had a strange feeling that the call might have something to do with me.

경찰
📞Yes, this is Seogang Police Station...
The police officer's expression hardened as he heard the voice on the other end of the phone, and he immediately shouted.
경찰
Go to Seongang-ro quickly!!!
Seongang-ro... It was the place where I met that man yesterday, and where I met the stalker. I swallowed hard and my hands trembled.
경찰
Just sleep....
경찰
Student, where did you say you met the stalker?
하여주
Segang-ro... Segang-ro
경찰
▫️Of course I thought they were shadows....
경찰
Because they leave no 'witnesses' behind. And it didn't take long for them to be discovered.
경찰
.....Lee Jin-woo
경찰
Investigate Lee Jin-woo quickly
