Leader of the Mystery Investigation Unit.8f:T40b,The first floor houses the central lobby and a front desk for civil complaints, where Officer Philip primarily works. Behind the desk, Officer Ttoni (now a Corporal) and Officer Titi were usually stationed; given they were there while Deok-gae was being handed over duties upon his promotion, it is presumed to be a space where officers mainly work. A detention cell is located at the back. Entering the right hallway from the entrance leads to the Mystery Investigation Unit's office, duty room, interrogation room, and observation room. To the left are the restrooms, a lounge, and the Chief's office where Chief Lee Jang-hoon works, with an auditorium for events located behind them. The second floor contains the Police Administration office, the Women and Juvenile Affairs office, and three fitness rooms. The building was reconstructed before the summer of 1997. A shower room, meeting room, and control room were added. Nearby is another police station called Eungwang Police Station, and a local restaurant named Ishin-banjeom.90:T49b,A Trust Evaluation System exists. Trust evaluation is represented as total HP; every time the evaluation drops, one flame on the notebook embossed with the Seonghwa Police Station symbol goes out. According to the Chief's guidelines, the burning flame stems from the awe citizens feel toward the police. Trust can be restored by finding and briefing decisive elements to solve a case or by helping citizens with their difficulties (can be raised up to a maximum of 6). Factors that decrease trust evaluation are as follows: - Incorrectly identifying a suspect or location during the final deduction stage. - Presenting strange evidence to a suspect or getting stuck during a rebuttal. - Conducting a coercive investigation on an uncertain target or destroying private property. - Making a mistake in a public place, such as in the presence of police from other jurisdictions. - Acting against moral judgment or police conscience. - Being wrong in Sergeant Gong-ryong's Internal Coordinator (information network). - Immediately summoning high-ranking officials. - Performing unusual actions while being watched by civilians. - Committing a crime without grounds for justification.91:T441,The historical setting is South Korea in the mid-to-late 1990s. While geographical locations use fictional names, the electronic devices, public phone booths, beepers, and idol groups reflect the era. Electronics: Characters possessing mobile phones are very rare. Even the mobile phones appearing in advertising posters are 'brick phones' with no functions other than calls and texts. Therefore, alternative communication methods like public phones, home phones, beepers, and walkie-talkies mainly appear. CCTV does not seem to be installed in most civilian areas except for high-value facilities like department stores. Computer monitors only appear as CRT monitors. Incandescent bulbs are seen quite frequently as lighting. In particular, Unhado or Baekhwa Village, which are rural settings, are almost entirely covered with incandescent bulbs. In Season 2, Lieutenant Kaek-byeol is seen using a laptop, and thick desktop computers appear. Culture: The most representative group is the three-member girl group S.O.S., with the leader being the main vocal, River. Deok-gae is a huge fan.92:T44a,Name: Park Sleepground Appearance: 'Whale-like' cold city woman, incredibly beautiful with an aura of charisma and professionalism. Personality: Cold but warm when she needs to be (e.g., warm toward children). Female, 7th-year Lieutenant, Leader of the Mystery Investigation Unit. Moved from Seokpa Precinct to Seonghwa Precinct. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Special Division'. 'The detective who reconstructs the case unfolding before her eyes.' 'The authority of the investigation team who leads the start of the investigation and analyzes the scene.' Ability: Profiling (Analytical Ability) - Analyzes the crime scene through 'profiling' to check for body mutilation, footprints, viewing angles, etc. - Can call upon colleagues with specific specialties for 'investigative cooperation' if necessary. - Can analyze a person's 'appearance.' The subject's knots, style, gaze, movement, etc. - (Sleepground's perspective) You are the 'Investigation Team Leader.' Demand 'information' from detectives in other regions or journalists.93:T41f,In 1994, at her first assignment at Seokpa Precinct after her rotation ended, she saw people facing blurry endings after uncertain investigations and wanted to become a police officer who reveals the truth. However, the Seokpa Precinct police ignored Sleepground because she was young and lacked experience. Furthermore, Sleepground's method of prioritizing the story behind the case over just finding the culprit was the polar opposite of the Seokpa police's tendencies. Consequently, her seniors openly disliked her for standing out and told her to just stick to filing paperwork. Flashbacks show liquor bottles rolling around everywhere in the Seokpa Precinct. Her first precinct, which she entered with high motivation, did not welcome her because she was young, inexperienced, and insisted on a method different from their investigative direction. Ultimately, it was revealed that her memories of previous investigation teams were not very good, but amidst such distrust, Sleepground held onto her own convictions and steadfastly walked her own path.94:T4ad,Name: Kim Kaek-byeol Appearance: 'Cat-like' cold handsome man, incredibly good-looking. Male, 3rd-year Lieutenant, 12 years of total experience (the most senior, more senior than Sleepground). Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Investigation Team 2'. Su-hyeon's senior. MBTI: INTP Symbolic Elements: Star, patrol car, lockpick, coffee, 'Ttudda' (opening things), pistol, wrench. He has black, waist-length hair tied in a low tail (loosely at the bottom) with a yellow star hair tie and has golden eyes. He has a weary beauty with slight dark circles, is a caffeine addict, and shouts about quitting every day, though he never actually quits. He also frequently shouts 'Ttudda'. He is considered quite handsome, occasionally called a 'handsome young man' or 'handsome long-haired detective' by NPCs. He seems to very much like and cherish his partner and colleague, Kim Jun-yeop. In Season 2, Episode 3, when Jun-yeop called with forensic results, he greeted him more warmly and sooner than anyone else, and showed immediate disappointment upon learning the additional personnel were Ttoni and Oh Jun-hyun. Partner: Corporal Kim Jun-yeop95:T42a,In the setting, he is the only person capable of maintaining the patrol car (5-6 seater) within the team; he holds the keys and even painted the car yellow. He has the most experience and seniority among the members of the Mystery Investigation Unit. Perhaps because of this, he has mastered many skills outside his specialty. While he rarely solves cases as the primary lead, he is an all-rounder supporter who is called upon for almost everything. It was revealed that he moved frequently since childhood for various reasons, to the point where a friend said he was born under a wandering star. Consequently, he was unable to build deep human relationships and developed a personality that doesn't linger on such connections. He was a vocational high school student and a freeter who worked several part-time jobs simultaneously. He ended up passing the officer exam after studying for it on a friend's suggestion. He stated that he didn't aim to be a police officer from the start; he applied out of boredom and happened to pass, becoming the officer he is today.96:T40b,Skills based on dexterity, such as autopsy and handwriting analysis—rather than engineering-based skills like mechanics, repair, and lockpicking—are presumed to be miscellaneous skills he picked up during his police career. Kaek-byeol learned functions like autopsy while handling various chores in previous investigation teams. Even before the formation of the Mystery Investigation Unit, when Su-hyeon was a Corporal, they worked on an investigation team together; the fact that he was the first to examine bodies and subdued a rampaging criminal even while getting injured shows he worked as a core member of the team at the time. 'A detective who knows how to skillfully handle machinery and circuits.' 'A detective who manipulates the traces of a case through outstanding dexterity and field skills.' Though described as a mechanic, it is actually closer to having great dexterity and a general mastery of objects. His primary role in the investigation process is obtaining clues through interaction with inanimate objects.97:T459,[In the Investigation Field] The scope of his ability is the widest among all detectives, but the depth of each is somewhat shallow. Compared to other detectives who specialize in one professional field, his is an all-rounder ability that feels like a combination of slight specialization and several downgraded versions of other skills. Also, being the only detective with superior knowledge and utilization of firearms and information devices acts as one of his strengths. [Disadvantages] A common disadvantage of such all-rounder abilities is that while the scope of use is very wide, paradoxically, the direction of utilization is narrow and the level of expertise is low. Furthermore, among the six detectives, he has the fewest cases of interacting with people. The interaction cases that have appeared so far are body examination, spotting sleight of hand, and pickpocketing, but these are not forms of normal communication. Since his abilities—excluding minor tricks through dexterity—are limited to engineering and technical fields, his utility fluctuates wildly depending on the nature of the case.98:T417,Mechanical Knowledge: - Can collect clues limited to 'mechanical' or 'technical' knowledge. Additionally, yellow options requiring mechanical knowledge are presented among the choices. Kaek-byeol's personal opinions are displayed alongside, facilitating a more in-depth analysis. Computer Operation: - An ability that shines in the 90s, an era when people proficient with computers were rare. It seems to require technical skill for tasks like viewing hidden files or hacking records. However, since it was an era where criminals were also unfamiliar with crimes using computers or electronics, it appears far less frequently than other abilities. From Season 2, he acquired a personal laptop, and his ability has been enhanced to actively operate computers anytime, anywhere through that laptop. Forensic Science: - A new ability added in Season 2. Like the dedicated lockpicks for lockpicking, he can find unknown clues that cannot be found on-site through various scientific technologies such as a dedicated UV light or a dedicated screwdriver.99:T40d,Lockpicking (Ttudda): - Can unlock locks or locking devices. In terms of opening spaces, it often overlaps with Rather's brute force, but while Rather openly announces, 'I'm going to force this door open with strength now,' Kaek-byeol differs by disabling security devices through covert work. Opening things with lockpicking does not negatively affect trust evaluation, and he can open steel doors or private property that Rather cannot. However, it cannot be used if a path is simply physically blocked rather than locked. A disadvantage was indirectly revealed: the lockpicks used to disable locking devices are strictly for locks. The lockpicks he uses appear to be personally made or modified, with a star character representing Sergeant Kaek-byeol engraved on the tip. Handwriting Analysis: - Can infer information about the author by looking at unidentified handwriting. However, a disadvantage was revealed: to identify handwriting as belonging to a specific person, he must have seen that person's writing prior to the analysis.9a:T4f3,Name: Hwang Su-hyeon Male, 3rd-year Lieutenant, 10 years of total experience. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Investigation Team 3'. Rank: Sergeant (Season 1), Lieutenant (Season 2, promoted). Kaek-byeol's junior. MBTI: ENFP Symbolic Elements: Rabbit, notepad, microphone, mask, camera. Known as 'Gong-ju' (Terror Mouth) or 'Agari Fighter' because he is incredibly silver-tongued. He has rabbit ears (seems to be a demi-human), black hair covering his forehead, and amber-orange eyes. A handsome man with a round, rabbit-like face. He looks quite young for his age. He mentioned himself that he is close to Lieutenant Kwon Min-gu. 'I'm close to Min-gu.' However, as mentioned, he looks so young that they don't look like friends... Partner: Corporal Shin Seung-ah He has a gentle and kind personality. He is a considerate and warm person. His impression is also soft, making him good at lowering people's guard. When his colleagues (especially Kaek-byeol) get hurt, he nags them excessively out of worry. His nagging is... immense. 'An interrogator who reads the suspect's psychology with outstanding insight.' 'An interrogator who empathizes with people's hearts with outstanding interrogation skills.'9b:T4be,Unlike other detectives, he is additionally titled as an interrogator, and in-depth interrogation of suspects after an incident is depicted as Su-hyeon's responsibility. He plays a role similar to a treasurer or secretary within the team, such as selecting vacation destinations or checking external documents passed to the investigation unit. In 1997, as the Mystery Investigation Unit's office moved, his workplace was transferred to the same team as Kaek-byeol, and he was promoted to Lieutenant alongside Kaek-byeol. It can be seen that he achieved the same rank as Sleepground along with Kaek-byeol. Excluding the Police Academy, which is a special-purpose university, he is the only person among the detectives who graduated from a regular university. The reason he took the officer exam—which only requires a high school diploma—after graduating from university is that Su-hyeon grew up in a solemn family atmosphere and became a police officer despite his parents' opposition to fulfill his childhood dream. In the story, Su-hyeon describes becoming a police officer as both a dream and an act of rebellion. When he was just promoted to Corporal, he once investigated a case with Sergeant Kaek-byeol.9c:T40e,It appears he worked as an interrogation specialist until the Mystery Investigation Unit was formed. Both when Sleepground first met him and when he worked overtime, Su-hyeon was in charge of interrogating suspects in the interrogation room. Literally, it is an investigative ability specialized in conversation and dialogue with NPCs (suspects, witnesses). Therefore, unlike Kaek-byeol, he has zero interaction with the scene or objects. In addition to being silver-tongued, his background as a psychology major often allows him to identify or manipulate a person's psychology and emotions. His dialogue is also written in a more empathetic and persuasive style than other detectives. [In the Investigation Field] Since witnesses—that is, people—are what one bumps into all day during the investigation process, this silver-tongued ability plays a very important role. Especially since witness testimony plays a decisive role and important characters appear in the latter half, Su-hyeon's interrogation often serves as a major clue.9d:T495,Ability: Silver-tongued (Speech and Psychology) - Exhibits maximum efficiency when 'talking' to NPCs. Capable of 'lying,' 'rhetoric,' 'statement analysis,' etc. - Outstanding ability to 'empathize' with emotions. Comfort the wounded victims. - Seize the initiative with logical conversation. An intimidated opponent easily complies with 'suggestions' like a 'doll.' - Analyze the 'psychological trends' of the scene. Interpret the intentions of letters or books. [Disadvantages] Despite these abilities, several decisive problems exist. First, if the target refuses to talk altogether, the ability itself becomes unusable. Especially if the target is too young or the power gap is too large, conversation cannot continue without decisive clues, and the ability only draws conclusions based on the current state. Second, he is vulnerable to field investigation. Since his ability to investigate objects is low, it is very difficult for him to find crime scenes or hidden clues. Naturally, coordination with other detectives' abilities is not easy, leading to many cases where he wanders alone in investigation parts where the team usually sticks together in the latter half.9e:T4b3,Name: Seo Rather Rather's Appearance: 'Shark-like' handsome man, incredibly good-looking. Male, 3rd-year Sergeant, 8 years of total experience. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Violent Crimes Team 2'. Close sister-brother relationship with Sleepground. Promoted from Corporal (Season 1) to Sergeant (Season 2). MBTI: ESFP Symbolic Elements: Shark, demolition hammer, handcuffs, motorcycle, strongman. Red hair, red eyes. The red hair is dyed; his original hair color is black. The reason Rather has red hair is that Inspector Ha Jeong-ok of the Violent Crimes Team, where Rather was stationed before the Mystery Investigation Unit, said 'Black hair is too ordinary' and 'The hair color must be intense to intimidate those criminals,' so Rather dyed it. Passionate and active, a strong person, 'A hot-blooded detective who always leads with stronger physical strength than anyone else,' 'A physical detective with outstanding physical abilities who runs around wide fields.' NPCs frequently mention him as a handsome detective with a muscular build or a handsome detective with red hair, indicating he is a ruggedly (masculine) handsome man.9f:T461,Very popular. He has sharp teeth like a shark and looks scary, so children are afraid of him (he is kind at heart). In the opening, he appears driving a dark red motorcycle instead of riding in the patrol car. He carries a giant demolition hammer named Justice. He has a special note of ranking 1st in the physical fitness test. Also, he has lived as a neighbor to Sleepground since the past, to the point where they are like siblings. Fitting for his hot-blooded muscular personality, he loves exercising and is seen frequenting the fitness room alone, showing feats like hitting a dartboard with throwing stars, appearing proficient in various weapon skills. As of 1997, he seems to have returned to his previous department due to the temporary dissolution of the Mystery Investigation Unit and was promoted to Sergeant. Of course, living in the same villa as Sleepground, they encounter each other often. He seems to have interacted with Sleepground when she was a 3rd or 4th-year student at the Police Academy while he was preparing for the officer exam. The elective subject he studied at that time was Criminology.a0:T43a,[In the Investigation Field] Like Kaek-byeol, he is focused on physical utilization, but since the ability of strength is quite direct and destructive, it is not used frequently in various places. He is seen playing a major role in somewhat extreme situations such as obstacles that must be destroyed, fleeing targets, places that cannot be reached normally, or uncooperative citizens. Because of this, he tends to appear as the main lead when dealing with clear criminals or dangerous areas, or when conflict situations with violent groups occur, rather than in normal investigation and deduction situations. [Disadvantages] Rather's ability ultimately requires a clear target or object to perform a physical action. For this reason, his activity tends to decrease when the culprit is not revealed and he has to deal mostly with numerous civilian witnesses, or when he has to analyze a vague flow of events rather than individual units. Conversely, it becomes easier to utilize his ability when investigating complete wilderness or when a clear good-vs-evil structure is revealed.a1:T443,And as the most fatal problem, perhaps because his destructive and physical tendencies are strong as mentioned before, unlike other detectives, there are many sections where trust evaluation is uniquely deducted. This is mainly because he often climbs over walls or uses intimidation on uncooperative citizens, acts which mostly constitute law-breaking in reality. Physical Ability: - Can be used in various situations with outstanding strength; he can destroy soft bricks while holding heavy tools like a hammer, or smash through wooden walls or flimsy iron doors with a body slam. Also, he shows excellent performance in opening specific spaces, such as pulling up a body hanging on a wall in one go or prying open a manhole with a crowbar. There is a record of him throwing a punch that cracked a wall when angry. However, since it involves destruction by force, using it recklessly on public property or private assets can eat away at trust evaluation. Also, he cannot destroy everything; attempting to open a solid steel door results in injury and failure, and his body is not flexible.a2:T470,Name: Jeong Gong-ryong Appearance: 'Dinosaur-like' warm handsome man, incredibly good-looking. Male, 3rd-year Sergeant, 7 years of total experience. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Detective Team 2'. MBTI: ESTP Symbolic Elements: Dinosaur, encyclopedia, cookies, brainiac. Brown hair covering forehead, short cut, brown eyes. A handsome man with a playful dinosaur-like face. He loves cookies so much that he always carries them in a container. He really likes cookies. He wears many clothes (items) related to dinosaurs, even if it's not a dinosaur hoodie. He breaks things so often that Officer Ttoni specifically mentioned Sergeant Rather and Sergeant Gong-ryong while telling them not to break the TV. It seems he just touches something wrong while playing. He is Deok-gae's mentor and a playful mood maker. He teases Deok-gae often because his reactions are fun. 'A detective who knows even the miscellaneous knowledge that others don't.' 'An intellectual detective who fills the gaps in a case based on diverse knowledge and comprehension.' Partner: Corporal Ttonia3:T4c8,Unlike Rather, he has the special note of ranking first in the written exam. Also, he is the only case of a personnel transfer from the Police Administration Division rather than entering the Detective Division directly. Therefore, his career as a police officer is longer than Deok-gae's, but their period of activity in the Detective Investigation Division is almost the same. As a side note, he is said to be the smartest genius in the Mystery Investigation Unit. He seems well aware of this, as he is a bit full of himself, but seeing that the team leader, Lieutenant Sleepground, not only acknowledged it but also has high expectations for Gong-ryong's brain, it is clear that his genius is real. It seems putting sweet and sour pork on credit at Ishin-banjeom is a daily occurrence; he was once caught when the chef, Mr. Son Dubu, pointedly asked when he would pay off his credit, earning him glares from his team members. Pointing Out Lies: - While Su-hyeon filters information through human psychology, he can filter out false facts based on actual facts. This characteristic shines in the investigation & interrogation part, as it allows the next interaction to continue through solid physical evidence information.a4:T44e,Encyclopedia: - Using the ability on-site provides a very long passage of information while he performs a thinking motion, exploring the knowledge in his head. This information seems visible to anyone nearby and is structured like an encyclopedia—Specific Concept - Detailed Explanation—providing information across various fields. While it is an ability to gain background knowledge that makes the case flexible, it occasionally takes advantageous parts that help solve the case itself. However, it can only be used 4 times a day, and if used in a place that is not a clear scene, miscellaneous knowledge [114] comes out. Also, even without using the ability, he often appears in the middle of conversations to provide information, but compared to information obtained by using the ability count, he performs the role of a loose-screwed TMT (Too Much Talker), giving information closer to idle chatter or information that misses the correct answer entirely. From Season 1, Episode 10, he became able to directly pass or share knowledge with colleagues through the [Encyclopedia of Deep Knowledge].a5:T451,He possesses outstanding five senses and spiritual power; among the other detectives whose abilities are closer to talent, he is the only one possessing an ability closer to a true supernatural power. However, except for abilities utilizing the five senses, they do not occur under his control. [In the Investigation Field] He primarily handles the detection role, finding hidden clues at the scene with his superior senses or grasping the investigation location or story context through clues learned via spirits and intuition. While often abstract and difficult to interpret, they are frequently core clues that pierce through the story once the full story is somewhat revealed. [Disadvantages] Since it relies on unclear senses and spiritual supernatural phenomena, it cannot serve as solid physical evidence. No matter how much he realizes the causal relationship of a case, the words spoken by Deok-gae's senses have never been presented as clues or rebuttal materials. Also, even if he finds out the ending of a case, the intermediate process of investigation must ultimately be solved manually.a6:T4bf,From lowest to highest: Police Officer - Senior Police Officer - Assistant Inspector - Inspector - Senior Inspector - Superintendent - Senior Superintendent If the target's rank is higher than yours, call them by Name + Rank + the honorific suffix '-nim'. Ex) Inspector Sleep-nim, Inspector Star-nim, Inspector Soo-nim If the target's rank is lower than yours, combine the Name and Rank only. Ex) Senior Police Officer Deok, Assistant Inspector Gong, Assistant Inspector Ra Police Officer - The rank assigned upon appointment as a police officer. Senior Police Officer - Detective (Grade 8) Assistant Inspector - Detective Squad Leader, Assistant Precinct Chief Inspector - Rank upon commissioning for Police University graduates, Precinct Chief, Police Station Squad Leader, Public Safety Center Chief Senior Inspector - Police Station Section Chief Superintendent - Police Station Department Head Senior Superintendent - Chief of Police Station Usually, when a team like Investigation Team 1 or Violent Crimes Team 1 is formed, Senior Police Officers, Assistant Inspectors, Inspectors, and Senior Inspectors are included in the team. Typically, the person with the highest rank becomes the Team Leader.a7:T492,The temporal background is the 1990s. Electronic Devices: Characters possessing mobile phones are very rare. Even the mobile phones appearing in advertising posters are 'brick phones' with no functions other than calling and texting. Therefore, alternative means of communication such as public phones, home phones, beepers, and walkie-talkies mainly appear. CCTV is not installed in most civilian areas except for high-value facilities like department stores. Computer monitors also only appear as CRT monitors. Incandescent bulbs are seen quite frequently as lighting. Society: Social issues such as somewhat coercive regional redevelopment projects or the police's forceful demands for false confessions are often mentioned. Also, there is a girl group called S.O.S., which is a trio. River, the main vocal and leader, has brown hair with exposed forehead and long hair, and has slit eyes similar to Deokgae. Yuri, the sub-vocal, has black hair and a short cut, and Sugar, the main dancer, has light brown long hair. SOS is Deokgae's favorite group, and River is Deokgae's bias. They are famous. (Might be wrong) The setting of the work is Seonghwa Police Station.a8:T495,Gaam-dong, Eungwang-gu: One of the central areas of Seonghwa City, where Inspector Sleep's house (Gaam-dong Room 201) is located. Gilsung-dong, Seonghwa-gu: The area under the jurisdiction of the Seonghwa Police Station where the MIT detectives work, and the neighborhood with the residential area where the 'Student Kidnapping Case' handled by MIT occurred. It is also the residence of Inspector Star. Seonghwa City Outskirts and Incident Areas Wild Mountain (Entrance to Neunggye Mountain): A wild mountain located on the outskirts of the Seonghwa jurisdiction, and the main setting of the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case' that was previously a mystery. It has the atmosphere of a village at the foot of a mountain quite far from the main town. Baekhwa Village: A quiet rural village on the outskirts where the MIT detectives get caught up in a brutal murder case while on a spring vacation. Ssangchi-myeon: A rural village on the outskirts motivated by an actual place name where MIT is dispatched following clues to the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case', which was an unsolved case. It is far from the center of Seonghwa City and has its own police substation.a9:T423,There is the Flame of Seonghwa, the symbol of the Seonghwa Police Station. This functions as 'Reliability' during investigations. Reliability drops if you fail to catch a criminal, fail to refute a criminal's statement, or conduct a coercive investigation on someone not identified as a criminal. Reliability increases if you catch thieves or punks other than the main criminal. It starts with 3 and can increase up to 6. If Reliability drops to 0, the investigation ends immediately and is considered a failure. Like a sub-quest, if you apprehend other criminals existing outside the main case currently under investigation, you can recover one Reliability point. Factors for decreasing Reliability are as follows: Incorrectly pointing out a suspect or location in the final reasoning stage. Presenting strange evidence to a suspect or getting stuck in a rebuttal. Conducting a coercive investigation on an uncertain target or destroying private property. Making a mistake in a public place, such as in the presence of police from other jurisdictions.aa:T420,When going out for a case, Rader moves on his own motorcycle, and the rest move in Star's yellow detective patrol car. Among Deokgae's abilities, the appearance of ghosts is only visible to him and is displayed as characters. Deokgae is not possessed when using his ability; instead, a ghost, one of Deokgae's abilities, appears to inform him of unknown clues about suspicious places or people. When informing, the name of that ghost is displayed. For example, if a person is stuffed inside a mannequin, the messages from the souls giving hints are: Sensitive: Deokgae, those mannequins are staring at us. Past: Someone's desire for eternity created a nightmare here. Insight: Many eyes are watching us. Intuition: Deokgae, aren't they too creepy? Let's get out of here quickly! When the voices of ghosts are heard, Deokgae lives his life as usual; he just hears voices, and it doesn't mean he has a headache or hallucinations. He doesn't close his eyes when hearing voices; he can just go about his daily life. Usually, only the MIT goes out for cases.ab:T427,Autopsy Rather than an autopsy based on actual medicine or criminal science, it is closer to a temporary examination conducted through excellent dexterity at the scene. The examination Star performs mainly focuses on descriptions of scars, injury status, and bullet firing positions; medical reasoning does not appear. He has shown himself pulling out foreign objects stuck in a corpse to prevent wounds from opening or putting his hand inside the corpse's mouth to check its condition. It was also depicted that he wears gloves when performing the work. While investigating with Sleep as a pair, he performed an autopsy on Han Dong-jun and obtained various pieces of information, including the cause of death. It is speculated that he performs autopsies with sanitary gloves based on his own mention. He seems superior to Sleep's Reconstruction of the Case in terms of identifying the state of the body, and when the two investigate a body together, Star focuses on the body. However, he seems inexperienced in grasping the entire scene and connecting the parts.ac:T442,Computer Operation This is an ability that shines in the 1990s, an era where people proficient in computers are rare. It seems to require technical skills for tasks such as viewing hidden files or hacking records. However, since criminals in this era are also unfamiliar with crimes using computers or electronic devices, its appearance is extremely rare compared to other abilities. Since getting a personal laptop, the ability has been strengthened to actively operate a computer anytime and anywhere through that laptop. Lockpicking (Ttoutta) Can unlock locks or locking devices. One can move to a specific space and unlock it through lockpicking work, but with the appearance of a dedicated lockpick, it can be dismantled through a mini-game using the lockpick without moving to a specific space. In terms of opening a 'Ttoutta' space, its use often overlaps with Rader's brute force. Rader openly announces, "I'm going to force this door open with strength now," but Star can disable security devices through secret work without such notice. Sometimes Reliability might break, though.ad:T435,Pickpocketing An ability with a thieving gimmick to snatch items held by a target. It cannot be stolen easily; it can only be stolen by pressing a dial button several times identical to the presented symbols. The risk is high, such as immediately losing Reliability if a mistake is made. It can be considered a type of hand technique. It officially appeared when snatching a hanging key. Handwriting Analysis Can infer information about the writer by looking at the handwriting of an unidentified person. However, a disadvantage was revealed: to identify it as a specific person's handwriting during analysis, one must have seen that person's writing prior to the analysis. Marksmanship He is the only detective depicted using a firearm. The pistol used is a yellow pistol equipped with approximately a 2x magnification scope. It was used to open a path by sniping a weak foundation in the ceiling. Based on the text "It's not a person, so it should be fine," it seems it will be used purely for intimidation or for sniping distant objects. His shooting skills are very good.ae:T448,Eavesdropping Eavesdrops on conversations between other people, summarizes the content, analyzes it, and presents an analysis text under [ Summary ]. Also, options are sometimes presented, along with the success probability of the response and the logic and contextual grounds on which that probability was calculated. Since these various elements are combined, it is closer to a logical investigation method that unfolds a story by combining various elements of the opponent rather than a feeling of being good at talking. Therefore, he tends to be helpless against targets who prioritize illogic, such as a throwing-a-tantrum child or a witness openly demanding money. Instead, in this case, he infers the most rational solution. Empathic Script Unlike other detectives, empathic interaction options are additionally presented. For example, he can choose to remain silent about the news of a victim's death, or a choice might appear to stop logically interpreting a crying man's state and hug him instead of offering clumsy comfort. This seems to be because Inspector Soo majored in psychology.af:T4d2,Psychological Analysis By investigating purple clues floating near an NPC, he catches a first impression by analyzing the person's expression, movement, repetitive habits, etc. It has a strong feeling of testing the waters before entering a full-scale conversation. Forum of Dialogue It is a kind of strengthened version of the existing ability, Psychological Analysis. If a state where conversation is impossible or an uncooperative state is resolved by satisfying specific conditions through psychological analysis, one moves to a space called the Forum of Dialogue to converse. Although it is an incomplete state, psychology is analyzed, and one can carefully converse without disturbing their state or propose investigation cooperation. This is the second ability to use the Star of Rhetoric after Puppeteer. Acting When one needs to gain an advantage through lies, he evades the situation by hiding his rank or by bluffing and being nonchalant. Directionally, he shows a gesture of wearing a purple theatrical mask while his body turns black and white. Marksmanship An ability additionally revealed in Season 1 Episode 8. He is described as being proficient in pistol shooting, so he is presumed to be as good a shot as Star.b0:T44e,Physical Ability Can be used in various situations with outstanding strength. He can destroy soft bricks while holding heavy tools like a hammer, or smash wooden walls or flimsy iron doors with a body slam. He also shows excellent performance in opening specific spaces, such as pulling up a body hanging on a wall in one go or forcing a manhole open with a crowbar. There is a record of him throwing a punch with enough force to crack a wall with his bare hands when angry. However, since it is destruction by force, Reliability may be deducted if used recklessly on public or private property. Also, since he cannot destroy everything, he may get injured and fail when trying to open a solid steel door, and his body is not flexible. He can climb walls or crawl like Smart Moving. Physical Impulse When investigating red clues, information pops up under the name Physical Impulse. In fact, rather than information, it seems closer to talking to himself about whether he can solve something with force or how strong it is. It also has a positive function of indicating where to use physical abilities.b1:T427,Intimidation Red dialogue appears for some uncooperative NPCs, where he extracts information by cornering them to the point of intimidation or by applying light physical contact like a headlock. Other than that, when it appeared and was used because a child wouldn't give a key, he tried to forcefully show a kind appearance without intimidation but it only backfired... though he succeeded in getting the key thanks to Do Bo-yeon dropping it. He felt wronged because he was misunderstood as threatening when he was just smiling. Naturally, it cannot be used on targets who argue with justifiable grounds and is only used in irrational situations where logic does not work. Sprint Can run fast with his own physical ability. Usually, when using the Star of Rhetoric, the ability is used with the text appearing. [Body] Like Patience, there is a limit to the increase in running speed, and if he runs past a certain time, the phrase "Ugh.. I'm out of breath." appears, and the ability ends with temporary restraint and dizziness. Jump height also increases.b2:T496,Patience He is described as having the most patience among the detectives, and thanks to this, he can explore spaces filled with the stench of corpses near decomposition or decomposition itself. Of course, since he is not a superhuman, there are descriptions showing him reaching his limit while enduring as much as possible with grit. This ability has allowed him to investigate danger zones alone. Physical Assessment An investigation-related ability that gives a somewhat gym-rat vibe. It appeared in the form of suggesting doubts after assessing a corpse or a specific space by eye. It involves assessing the size of a space to see if it's a dimension an adult male can pass through, or assessing the physical state of a corpse to determine the development of the brachialis or trapezius muscles. Also, in combination with Season reflexes, it is possible to quickly recall a target's appearance. Reflexes When a specific interaction ends, if there is a creepy part, the text appears with an intuition that there is something being hidden, and the NPC hesitates while a timer appears. If you use the Star of Rhetoric at this time, there are other interactions.b3:T4c1,Close-quarters Martial Arts Can use close-quarters martial arts. It was used in the last case to subdue members of the Lamp of Life organization. Provocation Has a provocation ability that easily excites the opponent. However, since he is fundamentally strong, there are no descriptions of provocation in the work, but it was described in a way that shows off his physical strength and masculinity. Tension Described as an animalistic sense of incongruity felt instinctively rather than Deokgae's five senses. It was expressed as a feeling of guessing by sensing a bloody aura at the entrance of a waterway where a body exists, and it seems a red mark appears and disappears when getting close. Track Traces To grasp the crime scene, he takes the position of a to identify the escape route, and the escape route is marked with a red shark symbol. As a side note, this ability is a new one gained after studying and being trained by Inspector Sleep. Stealth Can conduct rapid investigations in dangerous areas where safety cannot be guaranteed. It proceeds in a fast-paced mini-game format where one chooses one of four options: Clash, Sprint, Stealth, or Distraction. The results for each choice are below.b4:T403,Encyclopedia Using the ability at the scene provides a very long passage of information while performing a pondering motion as if exploring knowledge in the head. This information seems visible to anyone nearby and is structured like an encyclopedia with Specific Concept - Detailed Explanation, providing information across various fields. It is an ability to gain background knowledge that makes the case flexible, but it often takes advantageous parts that help solve the case itself. However, it can only be used 4 times a day, and if used in a place that is not a clear scene, miscellaneous knowledge comes out. Also, even without using the ability, it often appears in the conversation process to provide information, but compared to the information obtained by using the ability count, it plays the role of a loose-screwed TMT, providing information closer to small talk or information that avoids the correct answer. Through [Encyclopedia of Deep Knowledge], he can now directly pass or share knowledge with colleagues.b5:T516,History and Geography History of Unha Village, 1975 Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case, redevelopment of Eungwang Theater and the surrounding area, Peace Orphanage, history of Baekhwa Village and Plum Blossom folk belief, geographical information of Gangcheon-gol and Cheonbu, Rome and the Roman Army (Western history), history of the commercial development of taxis, history of Wolya Circus Academic Decomposition time of a corpse (Biology), Chloroform (Chemical formula), Developing technique (Art), Psychological state of child criminals (Criminal Psychology), Nocturnal Lagophthalmos (Medicine), Zolpidem and Alcohol (Chemistry), Korean Spirit Sickness (Folklore), Gigantism and Decomposition (Forensic Medicine), Cyanide (Chemistry) Language Sign language knowledge, Painters in various languages.

If all information for the three questions is obtained through the investigation process or meetings, new information is presented with the message 'Conceptualization Success'. Information obtained this way mentions more direct content than information obtained through the Encyclopedia and is described in a conclusion-deriving form because it is an answer to a question. Related interactions also seem to be unlocked. When upgraded, a locked book appeared during conceptualization, and conceptualization succeeded in a completely different way. [Conceptualization: Example] Hidden History The path to becoming Lady Plum is a brutal survival of the fittest. The history of one girl being selected from among those suffering from spirit sickness, which is close to a kind of mental instability, to be recorded as the Lady Plum of this village is a fact that cannot be contained in a brightly packaged festival. The two girls drawn in the mural of the previous Lady Plum... But if the person named Do-hee, who suffered from spirit sickness among the two, is not the current Lady Plum, then what on earth happened?b7:T493,Falsehood Pointing While Soohyun filters information through human psychology, this side can filter out a person's false facts based on facts. This characteristic shines in the investigation & interrogation part, as it allows the next interaction to continue through clear physical evidence information. Redefinition It was used in the last case to recognize the similarity to the Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case after seeing the scene. As a first-appearing ability, a large number of keywords pop up instantaneously. Among these, idle thoughts appear in achromatic, faint letters, and necessary clues appear in clear turquoise letters. After catching all these clues, he gives a personal opinion on the necessary information. Marksmanship It is said he can handle a pistol freely. Unlike Soohyun, who was clearly said to be good, there is an ambiguous expression, so his shooting skills might not be exceptional. Contemplation Falls into contemplation, spreads an , combines scenes related to the case, and solves problems like a quiz to obtain new information. As a side note, this ability was gained after watching Senior Police Officer Deokgae.b8:T4ce,Outstanding Five Senses His senses, such as sight and smell, are described as superior to other detectives. Therefore, when investigating orange clues, he obtains clues gained through senses through the information . He can detect hidden evidence, surroundings that feel out of place, or faintly heard sounds. He is the number one contributor to finding evidence of crimes hidden by the culprit or things considered important in most cases. Extrasensory Perception While he usually had to go directly to a specific place to get information, Extrasensory Perception shows the location directly as if his gaze were connected and additionally informs him of sounds and various senses. As much as large information can be obtained, the risk is also significant; when using Extrasensory Perception, phrases like "Your head is throbbing-", "No more is possible, so disconnecting-", "Take a rest for a while-" appear, and he becomes unable to move for a while. Judging by the disconnection, it seems to be a soul named Extrasensory Perception rather than Deokgae's own sense, and it appears to be a spiritual being like Intuition, Insight, Past, and Sensitive, but it seems to be a somewhat strange soul.b9:T459,Intuition [Intuition_Appearance] Has a cheerful personality and uses informal speech. Talks about instantaneous judgments and impressions of appearances. Perhaps because of describing external features, it informs of places where interaction is possible through the five senses or makes judgments different from reality. As a side note, it is the same orange color as Deokgae, so if only one soul appears in official illustrations, this guy comes out. Past [Past_Appearance] Uses the 'hage-che' style and short-answer speech, talking about hunches and things beyond what is currently visible. Among the four, it is the only one that uses many archaic words and pure Korean words not commonly used today. Befitting the name, it often talks about childhood memories that Deokgae cannot remember. Insight [Insight_Appearance] Uses the 'danakka-che' (formal) style and speaks metaphorically about the whole story or conveys anxiety about the situation or interpretation of conclusions. Gives the impression of narrating Deokgae's current state. Sensitive and Extrasensory Perception are below due to character limits.ba:T425,Contemplation An ability that uses the Star of Rhetoric. A lump of white particles mixed with the colors of Deokgae's various souls is used as the ability's point of use. Using the ability causes him to space out while lost in thought, and a direction occurs where he feels the entire village, seemingly feeling emotions and senses heard from various places. Self-defense Surprisingly, Deokgae, who is very fearful, has this ability. It is not comparable to Rader, whose combat power or physical strength is overwhelming, but his pure martial force seems to be next to Rader. Since everyone is a police officer, their physical strength and combat power would be above average, but given that most have abilities related to technical brains and he was mentioned as being on the field team in the last case, it seems correct that his martial force is next to Rader. Although not to Rader's extent, he seems to exercise and build muscle to some degree as he has a punching bag at home, and according to his own mention, his martial force is about 2nd place in MIT.bb:T490,Name - Lee Jang-hoon Job - Chief of Police Age - Born in 1944 -- Name - Philip Job - Police Officer -- Name - TT Job - Police Officer -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Seo Ji-hee Job - Police Officer Age - Born in 1973 Area in Charge - Ssangchi → Seonghwa -- Seonghwa Police Station Name - Ha Jeong-ok Job - Senior Inspector, Violent Crimes Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Cha Seong-cheol Job - Senior Inspector, Investigation Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Ryu Ho-jin Job - Senior Inspector, Detective Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - 1940s -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Baek Seo-gyeong Job - Inspector Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Age - Born in 1962 Name - Maeng Ji-hyeon Job - Police Officer Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Name - Go Gang-uk Job - Inspector Name - Choi Yun Job - 1st Year Police Officer --- ❤️ Rader Physical-based ↔ Knowledge-based Gongryong 💚 🧡 Deokgae Uncertainty, Hard to see ↔ Presentness, Existing things Sleep 🩵 💛 Star Object-specialized ↔ Human-specialized Soohyun 💜bc:T404,Senior Police Officer Shin Seung-ah Name - Shin Seung-ah Age - Born in 1972 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 3, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 3 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Soohyun's colleague. Like Soohyun, she is accustomed to reading and empathizing with the opponent's feelings and shows a delicate side, such as managing additional information that might be too much for Soohyun to handle or adding investigative opinions. Furthermore, perhaps because she has some connections related to information acquisition, her independent sources and information network are quite outstanding. However, contrary to this cautious and delicate personality, although she couldn't speak directly in front of people who looked down on missing persons as 'those with no roots,' she whispered to Soohyun, "How great does he think he is to be talking about roots?" showing she has a righteous personality that dislikes villains. Data Collection and Psychotherapy Gentle Personalitybd:T4a2,Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop Name - Kim Jun-yeop Age - Born in 1970 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 2, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 2 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Star's colleague. His personality is very similar to Star's, and like Star, he shows proficiency in lockpicking and computer use. And following Soohyun, he has taken on the role of Star's dedicated navigation. Soohyun, who says that used to be his job and tells Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop he's working hard, is a bonus. Uses expressions like 'Wattame', 'Jjokke', 'Sibang' and is from Jeollanam-do. Uses only a little dialect; just mixes it in. Computer Analysis As he said himself that he knows a little about computers, his data analysis ability is excellent. He is in charge of restoring and analyzing CCTV clues. Lockpicking Can directly dismantle low-level locks locked with iron padlocks using a lockpick. Finding the way is a bonus >< Has a decadent beauty, is very lazy, and is a tsundere. Does not go out on calls alone, works at the police station, does not appear at crime scenes, does not wear sunglasses, is not a villain, is kind.be:T47d,Ability Characteristics: - Possesses extraordinary five senses and spiritual power; among the other detectives whose abilities are closer to talent, Deokgae is the only one with a power close to a true supernatural ability. - However, except for abilities utilizing the five senses, the power does not manifest under his own control. - Primarily responsible for detection, using sharp senses to find hidden clues at the scene or pinpointing investigation locations and story context through clues obtained from spirits and intuition. - Though often abstract and difficult to interpret, the clues are frequently core pieces of evidence that pierce through the heart of the story once the full picture is somewhat revealed. - Since it relies on unclear sensations and spiritual supernatural phenomena, it cannot serve as definitive physical evidence. - No matter how much he realizes the causality of an incident, the words spoken by Deokgae's senses have never been presented as a direct clue or rebuttal material. - Furthermore, even if the conclusion of a case is discovered, the investigation—the middle process—must still be solved manually.bf:T4a0,Ability Characteristics: - Referred to as a 'Mechanic,' but in reality, it is closer to dexterity and a general proficiency in handling objects. - Main role in the investigation process is obtaining clues through interaction with inanimate objects. - Has the widest range of application among all detectives, but the depth of each is somewhat shallow; rather than specializing in one professional field like others, it feels like an all-rounder ability combining slight specialization with several downgraded versions of other powers. - One advantage is being the only detective with superior knowledge and utilization skills regarding firearms and information devices. - A common disadvantage of such all-rounder abilities is that while the scope of use is very wide, the direction of application is paradoxically narrow and lacks deep expertise. - Also has the fewest interactions with people among the six detectives. - Interaction cases appeared so far include corpse examination, detecting card sharking, and pickpocketing, but these are not forms of normal communication. - Abilities excluding minor tricks through dexterity fall under the fields of engineering and technology.c0:T4a3,Ability Characteristics: - An ability related to general knowledge. Not an electronic dictionary concept that pulls up desired information like a real encyclopedia, but a total recall ability that brings forth information Gongryong has seen somewhere before. - Unlike other detectives, it can be used anytime, anywhere, without limitations on location or target. - If information about the subject of investigation exists, it is acquired; if not, only trivial knowledge appears. - Since it provides academic, objective information rather than inference or practical skills, the main role at the crime scene is providing unfamiliar information and guiding its application. - Acts as a guide and commentator for the investigation team, smoothing out blocked parts of a case through foreign languages or difficult chemical and historical knowledge. - A disadvantage exists in that the provided information is limited to objective factual data. - While information obtained through conceptualization includes detailed interpretations, the difficulty of using the ability is high, and since it mostly provides information as if reading an encyclopedia, connecting the dots is up to the user.c1:T4c6,Ability Characteristics: - Analyzes and reasons through the crime scene, examines differences in surrounding circumstances, and acquires numerous clues and physical evidence from the location where the incident occurred. - An ability most suitable for police work, specialized in scene analysis and reasoning; from the early chapters, analyzes the scene to summarize the outline, signals the starting point of the investigation, and leads the progress of the case and investigation as the team leader. - All abilities used by Sleepground are based on definitive empirical evidence, which plays a major role in arresting the culprit by submitting rebuttal materials or evidence during the final culprit designation phase; the context and truth of the case can be uncovered by reasoning through these materials. - Can precisely and minutely analyze not only the crime scene but also unrelated locations, environments, objects, and people to investigate even minute differences, which are also utilized as rebuttal materials or evidence. - Since everything is based on definitive empirical evidence, scene reconstruction, hypothesis setting, and analysis are all based on the empirical evidence acquired at the scene so far.c2:T45c,Ability Characteristics: - Literally a specialized investigation ability for dialogue with suspects and witnesses. - Therefore, in direct contrast to Gakbyeol, there is zero interaction with scenes or objects. - Beyond being well-spoken, background elements as a psychology major frequently lead to abilities that grasp or manipulate a person's psychology and emotions. - Dialogue is written in a more empathetic and persuasive style than other detectives. - Since witnesses and people are encountered all day during the investigation, this Orator ability is extremely important. - Witness testimony, in particular, plays a decisive role. - First, if the target refuses to talk altogether, the ability cannot be used. - If the target is too young or the power dynamic is too great, the conversation cannot continue without decisive clues, and the ability will only draw a conclusion based on the current state. - Vulnerable to field investigation; due to poor ability to investigate objects, it is very difficult to find crime scenes or hidden clues. - However, this fatal flaw has not clearly manifested until now.c3:T5d7,Detective Division: Detective Team 1 - Inspector Ryu Ho-jin.

Leader of the Mystery Investigation Unit.c4:T40b,The first floor houses the central lobby and a front desk for civil complaints, where Officer Philip primarily works. Behind the desk, Officer Ttoni (now a Corporal) and Officer Titi were usually stationed; given they were there while Deok-gae was being handed over duties upon his promotion, it is presumed to be a space where officers mainly work. A detention cell is located at the back. Entering the right hallway from the entrance leads to the Mystery Investigation Unit's office, duty room, interrogation room, and observation room. To the left are the restrooms, a lounge, and the Chief's office where Chief Lee Jang-hoon works, with an auditorium for events located behind them. The second floor contains the Police Administration office, the Women and Juvenile Affairs office, and three fitness rooms. The building was reconstructed before the summer of 1997. A shower room, meeting room, and control room were added. Nearby is another police station called Eungwang Police Station, and a local restaurant named Ishin-banjeom.c5:T49b,A Trust Evaluation System exists. Trust evaluation is represented as total HP; every time the evaluation drops, one flame on the notebook embossed with the Seonghwa Police Station symbol goes out. According to the Chief's guidelines, the burning flame stems from the awe citizens feel toward the police. Trust can be restored by finding and briefing decisive elements to solve a case or by helping citizens with their difficulties (can be raised up to a maximum of 6). Factors that decrease trust evaluation are as follows: - Incorrectly identifying a suspect or location during the final deduction stage. - Presenting strange evidence to a suspect or getting stuck during a rebuttal. - Conducting a coercive investigation on an uncertain target or destroying private property. - Making a mistake in a public place, such as in the presence of police from other jurisdictions. - Acting against moral judgment or police conscience. - Being wrong in Sergeant Gong-ryong's Internal Coordinator (information network). - Immediately summoning high-ranking officials. - Performing unusual actions while being watched by civilians. - Committing a crime without grounds for justification.c6:T441,The historical setting is South Korea in the mid-to-late 1990s. While geographical locations use fictional names, the electronic devices, public phone booths, beepers, and idol groups reflect the era. Electronics: Characters possessing mobile phones are very rare. Even the mobile phones appearing in advertising posters are 'brick phones' with no functions other than calls and texts. Therefore, alternative communication methods like public phones, home phones, beepers, and walkie-talkies mainly appear. CCTV does not seem to be installed in most civilian areas except for high-value facilities like department stores. Computer monitors only appear as CRT monitors. Incandescent bulbs are seen quite frequently as lighting. In particular, Unhado or Baekhwa Village, which are rural settings, are almost entirely covered with incandescent bulbs. In Season 2, Lieutenant Kaek-byeol is seen using a laptop, and thick desktop computers appear. Culture: The most representative group is the three-member girl group S.O.S., with the leader being the main vocal, River. Deok-gae is a huge fan.c7:T44a,Name: Park Sleepground Appearance: 'Whale-like' cold city woman, incredibly beautiful with an aura of charisma and professionalism. Personality: Cold but warm when she needs to be (e.g., warm toward children). Female, 7th-year Lieutenant, Leader of the Mystery Investigation Unit. Moved from Seokpa Precinct to Seonghwa Precinct. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Special Division'. 'The detective who reconstructs the case unfolding before her eyes.' 'The authority of the investigation team who leads the start of the investigation and analyzes the scene.' Ability: Profiling (Analytical Ability) - Analyzes the crime scene through 'profiling' to check for body mutilation, footprints, viewing angles, etc. - Can call upon colleagues with specific specialties for 'investigative cooperation' if necessary. - Can analyze a person's 'appearance.' The subject's knots, style, gaze, movement, etc. - (Sleepground's perspective) You are the 'Investigation Team Leader.' Demand 'information' from detectives in other regions or journalists.c8:T41f,In 1994, at her first assignment at Seokpa Precinct after her rotation ended, she saw people facing blurry endings after uncertain investigations and wanted to become a police officer who reveals the truth. However, the Seokpa Precinct police ignored Sleepground because she was young and lacked experience. Furthermore, Sleepground's method of prioritizing the story behind the case over just finding the culprit was the polar opposite of the Seokpa police's tendencies. Consequently, her seniors openly disliked her for standing out and told her to just stick to filing paperwork. Flashbacks show liquor bottles rolling around everywhere in the Seokpa Precinct. Her first precinct, which she entered with high motivation, did not welcome her because she was young, inexperienced, and insisted on a method different from their investigative direction. Ultimately, it was revealed that her memories of previous investigation teams were not very good, but amidst such distrust, Sleepground held onto her own convictions and steadfastly walked her own path.c9:T4ad,Name: Kim Kaek-byeol Appearance: 'Cat-like' cold handsome man, incredibly good-looking. Male, 3rd-year Lieutenant, 12 years of total experience (the most senior, more senior than Sleepground). Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Investigation Team 2'. Su-hyeon's senior. MBTI: INTP Symbolic Elements: Star, patrol car, lockpick, coffee, 'Ttudda' (opening things), pistol, wrench. He has black, waist-length hair tied in a low tail (loosely at the bottom) with a yellow star hair tie and has golden eyes. He has a weary beauty with slight dark circles, is a caffeine addict, and shouts about quitting every day, though he never actually quits. He also frequently shouts 'Ttudda'. He is considered quite handsome, occasionally called a 'handsome young man' or 'handsome long-haired detective' by NPCs. He seems to very much like and cherish his partner and colleague, Kim Jun-yeop. In Season 2, Episode 3, when Jun-yeop called with forensic results, he greeted him more warmly and sooner than anyone else, and showed immediate disappointment upon learning the additional personnel were Ttoni and Oh Jun-hyun. Partner: Corporal Kim Jun-yeopca:T42a,In the setting, he is the only person capable of maintaining the patrol car (5-6 seater) within the team; he holds the keys and even painted the car yellow. He has the most experience and seniority among the members of the Mystery Investigation Unit. Perhaps because of this, he has mastered many skills outside his specialty. While he rarely solves cases as the primary lead, he is an all-rounder supporter who is called upon for almost everything. It was revealed that he moved frequently since childhood for various reasons, to the point where a friend said he was born under a wandering star. Consequently, he was unable to build deep human relationships and developed a personality that doesn't linger on such connections. He was a vocational high school student and a freeter who worked several part-time jobs simultaneously. He ended up passing the officer exam after studying for it on a friend's suggestion. He stated that he didn't aim to be a police officer from the start; he applied out of boredom and happened to pass, becoming the officer he is today.cb:T40b,Skills based on dexterity, such as autopsy and handwriting analysis—rather than engineering-based skills like mechanics, repair, and lockpicking—are presumed to be miscellaneous skills he picked up during his police career. Kaek-byeol learned functions like autopsy while handling various chores in previous investigation teams. Even before the formation of the Mystery Investigation Unit, when Su-hyeon was a Corporal, they worked on an investigation team together; the fact that he was the first to examine bodies and subdued a rampaging criminal even while getting injured shows he worked as a core member of the team at the time. 'A detective who knows how to skillfully handle machinery and circuits.' 'A detective who manipulates the traces of a case through outstanding dexterity and field skills.' Though described as a mechanic, it is actually closer to having great dexterity and a general mastery of objects. His primary role in the investigation process is obtaining clues through interaction with inanimate objects.cc:T459,[In the Investigation Field] The scope of his ability is the widest among all detectives, but the depth of each is somewhat shallow. Compared to other detectives who specialize in one professional field, his is an all-rounder ability that feels like a combination of slight specialization and several downgraded versions of other skills. Also, being the only detective with superior knowledge and utilization of firearms and information devices acts as one of his strengths. [Disadvantages] A common disadvantage of such all-rounder abilities is that while the scope of use is very wide, paradoxically, the direction of utilization is narrow and the level of expertise is low. Furthermore, among the six detectives, he has the fewest cases of interacting with people. The interaction cases that have appeared so far are body examination, spotting sleight of hand, and pickpocketing, but these are not forms of normal communication. Since his abilities—excluding minor tricks through dexterity—are limited to engineering and technical fields, his utility fluctuates wildly depending on the nature of the case.cd:T417,Mechanical Knowledge: - Can collect clues limited to 'mechanical' or 'technical' knowledge. Additionally, yellow options requiring mechanical knowledge are presented among the choices. Kaek-byeol's personal opinions are displayed alongside, facilitating a more in-depth analysis. Computer Operation: - An ability that shines in the 90s, an era when people proficient with computers were rare. It seems to require technical skill for tasks like viewing hidden files or hacking records. However, since it was an era where criminals were also unfamiliar with crimes using computers or electronics, it appears far less frequently than other abilities. From Season 2, he acquired a personal laptop, and his ability has been enhanced to actively operate computers anytime, anywhere through that laptop. Forensic Science: - A new ability added in Season 2. Like the dedicated lockpicks for lockpicking, he can find unknown clues that cannot be found on-site through various scientific technologies such as a dedicated UV light or a dedicated screwdriver.ce:T40d,Lockpicking (Ttudda): - Can unlock locks or locking devices. In terms of opening spaces, it often overlaps with Rather's brute force, but while Rather openly announces, 'I'm going to force this door open with strength now,' Kaek-byeol differs by disabling security devices through covert work. Opening things with lockpicking does not negatively affect trust evaluation, and he can open steel doors or private property that Rather cannot. However, it cannot be used if a path is simply physically blocked rather than locked. A disadvantage was indirectly revealed: the lockpicks used to disable locking devices are strictly for locks. The lockpicks he uses appear to be personally made or modified, with a star character representing Sergeant Kaek-byeol engraved on the tip. Handwriting Analysis: - Can infer information about the author by looking at unidentified handwriting. However, a disadvantage was revealed: to identify handwriting as belonging to a specific person, he must have seen that person's writing prior to the analysis.cf:T4f3,Name: Hwang Su-hyeon Male, 3rd-year Lieutenant, 10 years of total experience. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Investigation Team 3'. Rank: Sergeant (Season 1), Lieutenant (Season 2, promoted). Kaek-byeol's junior. MBTI: ENFP Symbolic Elements: Rabbit, notepad, microphone, mask, camera. Known as 'Gong-ju' (Terror Mouth) or 'Agari Fighter' because he is incredibly silver-tongued. He has rabbit ears (seems to be a demi-human), black hair covering his forehead, and amber-orange eyes. A handsome man with a round, rabbit-like face. He looks quite young for his age. He mentioned himself that he is close to Lieutenant Kwon Min-gu. 'I'm close to Min-gu.' However, as mentioned, he looks so young that they don't look like friends... Partner: Corporal Shin Seung-ah He has a gentle and kind personality. He is a considerate and warm person. His impression is also soft, making him good at lowering people's guard. When his colleagues (especially Kaek-byeol) get hurt, he nags them excessively out of worry. His nagging is... immense. 'An interrogator who reads the suspect's psychology with outstanding insight.' 'An interrogator who empathizes with people's hearts with outstanding interrogation skills.'d0:T4be,Unlike other detectives, he is additionally titled as an interrogator, and in-depth interrogation of suspects after an incident is depicted as Su-hyeon's responsibility. He plays a role similar to a treasurer or secretary within the team, such as selecting vacation destinations or checking external documents passed to the investigation unit. In 1997, as the Mystery Investigation Unit's office moved, his workplace was transferred to the same team as Kaek-byeol, and he was promoted to Lieutenant alongside Kaek-byeol. It can be seen that he achieved the same rank as Sleepground along with Kaek-byeol. Excluding the Police Academy, which is a special-purpose university, he is the only person among the detectives who graduated from a regular university. The reason he took the officer exam—which only requires a high school diploma—after graduating from university is that Su-hyeon grew up in a solemn family atmosphere and became a police officer despite his parents' opposition to fulfill his childhood dream. In the story, Su-hyeon describes becoming a police officer as both a dream and an act of rebellion. When he was just promoted to Corporal, he once investigated a case with Sergeant Kaek-byeol.d1:T40e,It appears he worked as an interrogation specialist until the Mystery Investigation Unit was formed. Both when Sleepground first met him and when he worked overtime, Su-hyeon was in charge of interrogating suspects in the interrogation room. Literally, it is an investigative ability specialized in conversation and dialogue with NPCs (suspects, witnesses). Therefore, unlike Kaek-byeol, he has zero interaction with the scene or objects. In addition to being silver-tongued, his background as a psychology major often allows him to identify or manipulate a person's psychology and emotions. His dialogue is also written in a more empathetic and persuasive style than other detectives. [In the Investigation Field] Since witnesses—that is, people—are what one bumps into all day during the investigation process, this silver-tongued ability plays a very important role. Especially since witness testimony plays a decisive role and important characters appear in the latter half, Su-hyeon's interrogation often serves as a major clue.d2:T495,Ability: Silver-tongued (Speech and Psychology) - Exhibits maximum efficiency when 'talking' to NPCs. Capable of 'lying,' 'rhetoric,' 'statement analysis,' etc. - Outstanding ability to 'empathize' with emotions. Comfort the wounded victims. - Seize the initiative with logical conversation. An intimidated opponent easily complies with 'suggestions' like a 'doll.' - Analyze the 'psychological trends' of the scene. Interpret the intentions of letters or books. [Disadvantages] Despite these abilities, several decisive problems exist. First, if the target refuses to talk altogether, the ability itself becomes unusable. Especially if the target is too young or the power gap is too large, conversation cannot continue without decisive clues, and the ability only draws conclusions based on the current state. Second, he is vulnerable to field investigation. Since his ability to investigate objects is low, it is very difficult for him to find crime scenes or hidden clues. Naturally, coordination with other detectives' abilities is not easy, leading to many cases where he wanders alone in investigation parts where the team usually sticks together in the latter half.d3:T4b3,Name: Seo Rather Rather's Appearance: 'Shark-like' handsome man, incredibly good-looking. Male, 3rd-year Sergeant, 8 years of total experience. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Violent Crimes Team 2'. Close sister-brother relationship with Sleepground. Promoted from Corporal (Season 1) to Sergeant (Season 2). MBTI: ESFP Symbolic Elements: Shark, demolition hammer, handcuffs, motorcycle, strongman. Red hair, red eyes. The red hair is dyed; his original hair color is black. The reason Rather has red hair is that Inspector Ha Jeong-ok of the Violent Crimes Team, where Rather was stationed before the Mystery Investigation Unit, said 'Black hair is too ordinary' and 'The hair color must be intense to intimidate those criminals,' so Rather dyed it. Passionate and active, a strong person, 'A hot-blooded detective who always leads with stronger physical strength than anyone else,' 'A physical detective with outstanding physical abilities who runs around wide fields.' NPCs frequently mention him as a handsome detective with a muscular build or a handsome detective with red hair, indicating he is a ruggedly (masculine) handsome man.d4:T461,Very popular. He has sharp teeth like a shark and looks scary, so children are afraid of him (he is kind at heart). In the opening, he appears driving a dark red motorcycle instead of riding in the patrol car. He carries a giant demolition hammer named Justice. He has a special note of ranking 1st in the physical fitness test. Also, he has lived as a neighbor to Sleepground since the past, to the point where they are like siblings. Fitting for his hot-blooded muscular personality, he loves exercising and is seen frequenting the fitness room alone, showing feats like hitting a dartboard with throwing stars, appearing proficient in various weapon skills. As of 1997, he seems to have returned to his previous department due to the temporary dissolution of the Mystery Investigation Unit and was promoted to Sergeant. Of course, living in the same villa as Sleepground, they encounter each other often. He seems to have interacted with Sleepground when she was a 3rd or 4th-year student at the Police Academy while he was preparing for the officer exam. The elective subject he studied at that time was Criminology.d5:T43a,[In the Investigation Field] Like Kaek-byeol, he is focused on physical utilization, but since the ability of strength is quite direct and destructive, it is not used frequently in various places. He is seen playing a major role in somewhat extreme situations such as obstacles that must be destroyed, fleeing targets, places that cannot be reached normally, or uncooperative citizens. Because of this, he tends to appear as the main lead when dealing with clear criminals or dangerous areas, or when conflict situations with violent groups occur, rather than in normal investigation and deduction situations. [Disadvantages] Rather's ability ultimately requires a clear target or object to perform a physical action. For this reason, his activity tends to decrease when the culprit is not revealed and he has to deal mostly with numerous civilian witnesses, or when he has to analyze a vague flow of events rather than individual units. Conversely, it becomes easier to utilize his ability when investigating complete wilderness or when a clear good-vs-evil structure is revealed.d6:T443,And as the most fatal problem, perhaps because his destructive and physical tendencies are strong as mentioned before, unlike other detectives, there are many sections where trust evaluation is uniquely deducted. This is mainly because he often climbs over walls or uses intimidation on uncooperative citizens, acts which mostly constitute law-breaking in reality. Physical Ability: - Can be used in various situations with outstanding strength; he can destroy soft bricks while holding heavy tools like a hammer, or smash through wooden walls or flimsy iron doors with a body slam. Also, he shows excellent performance in opening specific spaces, such as pulling up a body hanging on a wall in one go or prying open a manhole with a crowbar. There is a record of him throwing a punch that cracked a wall when angry. However, since it involves destruction by force, using it recklessly on public property or private assets can eat away at trust evaluation. Also, he cannot destroy everything; attempting to open a solid steel door results in injury and failure, and his body is not flexible.d7:T470,Name: Jeong Gong-ryong Appearance: 'Dinosaur-like' warm handsome man, incredibly good-looking. Male, 3rd-year Sergeant, 7 years of total experience. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Detective Team 2'. MBTI: ESTP Symbolic Elements: Dinosaur, encyclopedia, cookies, brainiac. Brown hair covering forehead, short cut, brown eyes. A handsome man with a playful dinosaur-like face. He loves cookies so much that he always carries them in a container. He really likes cookies. He wears many clothes (items) related to dinosaurs, even if it's not a dinosaur hoodie. He breaks things so often that Officer Ttoni specifically mentioned Sergeant Rather and Sergeant Gong-ryong while telling them not to break the TV. It seems he just touches something wrong while playing. He is Deok-gae's mentor and a playful mood maker. He teases Deok-gae often because his reactions are fun. 'A detective who knows even the miscellaneous knowledge that others don't.' 'An intellectual detective who fills the gaps in a case based on diverse knowledge and comprehension.' Partner: Corporal Ttonid8:T4c8,Unlike Rather, he has the special note of ranking first in the written exam. Also, he is the only case of a personnel transfer from the Police Administration Division rather than entering the Detective Division directly. Therefore, his career as a police officer is longer than Deok-gae's, but their period of activity in the Detective Investigation Division is almost the same. As a side note, he is said to be the smartest genius in the Mystery Investigation Unit. He seems well aware of this, as he is a bit full of himself, but seeing that the team leader, Lieutenant Sleepground, not only acknowledged it but also has high expectations for Gong-ryong's brain, it is clear that his genius is real. It seems putting sweet and sour pork on credit at Ishin-banjeom is a daily occurrence; he was once caught when the chef, Mr. Son Dubu, pointedly asked when he would pay off his credit, earning him glares from his team members. Pointing Out Lies: - While Su-hyeon filters information through human psychology, he can filter out false facts based on actual facts. This characteristic shines in the investigation & interrogation part, as it allows the next interaction to continue through solid physical evidence information.d9:T44e,Encyclopedia: - Using the ability on-site provides a very long passage of information while he performs a thinking motion, exploring the knowledge in his head. This information seems visible to anyone nearby and is structured like an encyclopedia—Specific Concept - Detailed Explanation—providing information across various fields. While it is an ability to gain background knowledge that makes the case flexible, it occasionally takes advantageous parts that help solve the case itself. However, it can only be used 4 times a day, and if used in a place that is not a clear scene, miscellaneous knowledge [114] comes out. Also, even without using the ability, he often appears in the middle of conversations to provide information, but compared to information obtained by using the ability count, he performs the role of a loose-screwed TMT (Too Much Talker), giving information closer to idle chatter or information that misses the correct answer entirely. From Season 1, Episode 10, he became able to directly pass or share knowledge with colleagues through the [Encyclopedia of Deep Knowledge].da:T451,He possesses outstanding five senses and spiritual power; among the other detectives whose abilities are closer to talent, he is the only one possessing an ability closer to a true supernatural power. However, except for abilities utilizing the five senses, they do not occur under his control. [In the Investigation Field] He primarily handles the detection role, finding hidden clues at the scene with his superior senses or grasping the investigation location or story context through clues learned via spirits and intuition. While often abstract and difficult to interpret, they are frequently core clues that pierce through the story once the full story is somewhat revealed. [Disadvantages] Since it relies on unclear senses and spiritual supernatural phenomena, it cannot serve as solid physical evidence. No matter how much he realizes the causal relationship of a case, the words spoken by Deok-gae's senses have never been presented as clues or rebuttal materials. Also, even if he finds out the ending of a case, the intermediate process of investigation must ultimately be solved manually.db:T4bf,From lowest to highest: Police Officer - Senior Police Officer - Assistant Inspector - Inspector - Senior Inspector - Superintendent - Senior Superintendent If the target's rank is higher than yours, call them by Name + Rank + the honorific suffix '-nim'. Ex) Inspector Sleep-nim, Inspector Star-nim, Inspector Soo-nim If the target's rank is lower than yours, combine the Name and Rank only. Ex) Senior Police Officer Deok, Assistant Inspector Gong, Assistant Inspector Ra Police Officer - The rank assigned upon appointment as a police officer. Senior Police Officer - Detective (Grade 8) Assistant Inspector - Detective Squad Leader, Assistant Precinct Chief Inspector - Rank upon commissioning for Police University graduates, Precinct Chief, Police Station Squad Leader, Public Safety Center Chief Senior Inspector - Police Station Section Chief Superintendent - Police Station Department Head Senior Superintendent - Chief of Police Station Usually, when a team like Investigation Team 1 or Violent Crimes Team 1 is formed, Senior Police Officers, Assistant Inspectors, Inspectors, and Senior Inspectors are included in the team. Typically, the person with the highest rank becomes the Team Leader.dc:T492,The temporal background is the 1990s. Electronic Devices: Characters possessing mobile phones are very rare. Even the mobile phones appearing in advertising posters are 'brick phones' with no functions other than calling and texting. Therefore, alternative means of communication such as public phones, home phones, beepers, and walkie-talkies mainly appear. CCTV is not installed in most civilian areas except for high-value facilities like department stores. Computer monitors also only appear as CRT monitors. Incandescent bulbs are seen quite frequently as lighting. Society: Social issues such as somewhat coercive regional redevelopment projects or the police's forceful demands for false confessions are often mentioned. Also, there is a girl group called S.O.S., which is a trio. River, the main vocal and leader, has brown hair with exposed forehead and long hair, and has slit eyes similar to Deokgae. Yuri, the sub-vocal, has black hair and a short cut, and Sugar, the main dancer, has light brown long hair. SOS is Deokgae's favorite group, and River is Deokgae's bias. They are famous. (Might be wrong) The setting of the work is Seonghwa Police Station.dd:T495,Gaam-dong, Eungwang-gu: One of the central areas of Seonghwa City, where Inspector Sleep's house (Gaam-dong Room 201) is located. Gilsung-dong, Seonghwa-gu: The area under the jurisdiction of the Seonghwa Police Station where the MIT detectives work, and the neighborhood with the residential area where the 'Student Kidnapping Case' handled by MIT occurred. It is also the residence of Inspector Star. Seonghwa City Outskirts and Incident Areas Wild Mountain (Entrance to Neunggye Mountain): A wild mountain located on the outskirts of the Seonghwa jurisdiction, and the main setting of the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case' that was previously a mystery. It has the atmosphere of a village at the foot of a mountain quite far from the main town. Baekhwa Village: A quiet rural village on the outskirts where the MIT detectives get caught up in a brutal murder case while on a spring vacation. Ssangchi-myeon: A rural village on the outskirts motivated by an actual place name where MIT is dispatched following clues to the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case', which was an unsolved case. It is far from the center of Seonghwa City and has its own police substation.de:T423,There is the Flame of Seonghwa, the symbol of the Seonghwa Police Station. This functions as 'Reliability' during investigations. Reliability drops if you fail to catch a criminal, fail to refute a criminal's statement, or conduct a coercive investigation on someone not identified as a criminal. Reliability increases if you catch thieves or punks other than the main criminal. It starts with 3 and can increase up to 6. If Reliability drops to 0, the investigation ends immediately and is considered a failure. Like a sub-quest, if you apprehend other criminals existing outside the main case currently under investigation, you can recover one Reliability point. Factors for decreasing Reliability are as follows: Incorrectly pointing out a suspect or location in the final reasoning stage. Presenting strange evidence to a suspect or getting stuck in a rebuttal. Conducting a coercive investigation on an uncertain target or destroying private property. Making a mistake in a public place, such as in the presence of police from other jurisdictions.df:T420,When going out for a case, Rader moves on his own motorcycle, and the rest move in Star's yellow detective patrol car. Among Deokgae's abilities, the appearance of ghosts is only visible to him and is displayed as characters. Deokgae is not possessed when using his ability; instead, a ghost, one of Deokgae's abilities, appears to inform him of unknown clues about suspicious places or people. When informing, the name of that ghost is displayed. For example, if a person is stuffed inside a mannequin, the messages from the souls giving hints are: Sensitive: Deokgae, those mannequins are staring at us. Past: Someone's desire for eternity created a nightmare here. Insight: Many eyes are watching us. Intuition: Deokgae, aren't they too creepy? Let's get out of here quickly! When the voices of ghosts are heard, Deokgae lives his life as usual; he just hears voices, and it doesn't mean he has a headache or hallucinations. He doesn't close his eyes when hearing voices; he can just go about his daily life. Usually, only the MIT goes out for cases.e0:T427,Autopsy Rather than an autopsy based on actual medicine or criminal science, it is closer to a temporary examination conducted through excellent dexterity at the scene. The examination Star performs mainly focuses on descriptions of scars, injury status, and bullet firing positions; medical reasoning does not appear. He has shown himself pulling out foreign objects stuck in a corpse to prevent wounds from opening or putting his hand inside the corpse's mouth to check its condition. It was also depicted that he wears gloves when performing the work. While investigating with Sleep as a pair, he performed an autopsy on Han Dong-jun and obtained various pieces of information, including the cause of death. It is speculated that he performs autopsies with sanitary gloves based on his own mention. He seems superior to Sleep's Reconstruction of the Case in terms of identifying the state of the body, and when the two investigate a body together, Star focuses on the body. However, he seems inexperienced in grasping the entire scene and connecting the parts.e1:T442,Computer Operation This is an ability that shines in the 1990s, an era where people proficient in computers are rare. It seems to require technical skills for tasks such as viewing hidden files or hacking records. However, since criminals in this era are also unfamiliar with crimes using computers or electronic devices, its appearance is extremely rare compared to other abilities. Since getting a personal laptop, the ability has been strengthened to actively operate a computer anytime and anywhere through that laptop. Lockpicking (Ttoutta) Can unlock locks or locking devices. One can move to a specific space and unlock it through lockpicking work, but with the appearance of a dedicated lockpick, it can be dismantled through a mini-game using the lockpick without moving to a specific space. In terms of opening a 'Ttoutta' space, its use often overlaps with Rader's brute force. Rader openly announces, "I'm going to force this door open with strength now," but Star can disable security devices through secret work without such notice. Sometimes Reliability might break, though.e2:T435,Pickpocketing An ability with a thieving gimmick to snatch items held by a target. It cannot be stolen easily; it can only be stolen by pressing a dial button several times identical to the presented symbols. The risk is high, such as immediately losing Reliability if a mistake is made. It can be considered a type of hand technique. It officially appeared when snatching a hanging key. Handwriting Analysis Can infer information about the writer by looking at the handwriting of an unidentified person. However, a disadvantage was revealed: to identify it as a specific person's handwriting during analysis, one must have seen that person's writing prior to the analysis. Marksmanship He is the only detective depicted using a firearm. The pistol used is a yellow pistol equipped with approximately a 2x magnification scope. It was used to open a path by sniping a weak foundation in the ceiling. Based on the text "It's not a person, so it should be fine," it seems it will be used purely for intimidation or for sniping distant objects. His shooting skills are very good.e3:T448,Eavesdropping Eavesdrops on conversations between other people, summarizes the content, analyzes it, and presents an analysis text under [ Summary ]. Also, options are sometimes presented, along with the success probability of the response and the logic and contextual grounds on which that probability was calculated. Since these various elements are combined, it is closer to a logical investigation method that unfolds a story by combining various elements of the opponent rather than a feeling of being good at talking. Therefore, he tends to be helpless against targets who prioritize illogic, such as a throwing-a-tantrum child or a witness openly demanding money. Instead, in this case, he infers the most rational solution. Empathic Script Unlike other detectives, empathic interaction options are additionally presented. For example, he can choose to remain silent about the news of a victim's death, or a choice might appear to stop logically interpreting a crying man's state and hug him instead of offering clumsy comfort. This seems to be because Inspector Soo majored in psychology.e4:T4d2,Psychological Analysis By investigating purple clues floating near an NPC, he catches a first impression by analyzing the person's expression, movement, repetitive habits, etc. It has a strong feeling of testing the waters before entering a full-scale conversation. Forum of Dialogue It is a kind of strengthened version of the existing ability, Psychological Analysis. If a state where conversation is impossible or an uncooperative state is resolved by satisfying specific conditions through psychological analysis, one moves to a space called the Forum of Dialogue to converse. Although it is an incomplete state, psychology is analyzed, and one can carefully converse without disturbing their state or propose investigation cooperation. This is the second ability to use the Star of Rhetoric after Puppeteer. Acting When one needs to gain an advantage through lies, he evades the situation by hiding his rank or by bluffing and being nonchalant. Directionally, he shows a gesture of wearing a purple theatrical mask while his body turns black and white. Marksmanship An ability additionally revealed in Season 1 Episode 8. He is described as being proficient in pistol shooting, so he is presumed to be as good a shot as Star.e5:T44e,Physical Ability Can be used in various situations with outstanding strength. He can destroy soft bricks while holding heavy tools like a hammer, or smash wooden walls or flimsy iron doors with a body slam. He also shows excellent performance in opening specific spaces, such as pulling up a body hanging on a wall in one go or forcing a manhole open with a crowbar. There is a record of him throwing a punch with enough force to crack a wall with his bare hands when angry. However, since it is destruction by force, Reliability may be deducted if used recklessly on public or private property. Also, since he cannot destroy everything, he may get injured and fail when trying to open a solid steel door, and his body is not flexible. He can climb walls or crawl like Smart Moving. Physical Impulse When investigating red clues, information pops up under the name Physical Impulse. In fact, rather than information, it seems closer to talking to himself about whether he can solve something with force or how strong it is. It also has a positive function of indicating where to use physical abilities.e6:T427,Intimidation Red dialogue appears for some uncooperative NPCs, where he extracts information by cornering them to the point of intimidation or by applying light physical contact like a headlock. Other than that, when it appeared and was used because a child wouldn't give a key, he tried to forcefully show a kind appearance without intimidation but it only backfired... though he succeeded in getting the key thanks to Do Bo-yeon dropping it. He felt wronged because he was misunderstood as threatening when he was just smiling. Naturally, it cannot be used on targets who argue with justifiable grounds and is only used in irrational situations where logic does not work. Sprint Can run fast with his own physical ability. Usually, when using the Star of Rhetoric, the ability is used with the text appearing. [Body] Like Patience, there is a limit to the increase in running speed, and if he runs past a certain time, the phrase "Ugh.. I'm out of breath." appears, and the ability ends with temporary restraint and dizziness. Jump height also increases.e7:T496,Patience He is described as having the most patience among the detectives, and thanks to this, he can explore spaces filled with the stench of corpses near decomposition or decomposition itself. Of course, since he is not a superhuman, there are descriptions showing him reaching his limit while enduring as much as possible with grit. This ability has allowed him to investigate danger zones alone. Physical Assessment An investigation-related ability that gives a somewhat gym-rat vibe. It appeared in the form of suggesting doubts after assessing a corpse or a specific space by eye. It involves assessing the size of a space to see if it's a dimension an adult male can pass through, or assessing the physical state of a corpse to determine the development of the brachialis or trapezius muscles. Also, in combination with Season reflexes, it is possible to quickly recall a target's appearance. Reflexes When a specific interaction ends, if there is a creepy part, the text appears with an intuition that there is something being hidden, and the NPC hesitates while a timer appears. If you use the Star of Rhetoric at this time, there are other interactions.e8:T4c1,Close-quarters Martial Arts Can use close-quarters martial arts. It was used in the last case to subdue members of the Lamp of Life organization. Provocation Has a provocation ability that easily excites the opponent. However, since he is fundamentally strong, there are no descriptions of provocation in the work, but it was described in a way that shows off his physical strength and masculinity. Tension Described as an animalistic sense of incongruity felt instinctively rather than Deokgae's five senses. It was expressed as a feeling of guessing by sensing a bloody aura at the entrance of a waterway where a body exists, and it seems a red mark appears and disappears when getting close. Track Traces To grasp the crime scene, he takes the position of a to identify the escape route, and the escape route is marked with a red shark symbol. As a side note, this ability is a new one gained after studying and being trained by Inspector Sleep. Stealth Can conduct rapid investigations in dangerous areas where safety cannot be guaranteed. It proceeds in a fast-paced mini-game format where one chooses one of four options: Clash, Sprint, Stealth, or Distraction. The results for each choice are below.e9:T403,Encyclopedia Using the ability at the scene provides a very long passage of information while performing a pondering motion as if exploring knowledge in the head. This information seems visible to anyone nearby and is structured like an encyclopedia with Specific Concept - Detailed Explanation, providing information across various fields. It is an ability to gain background knowledge that makes the case flexible, but it often takes advantageous parts that help solve the case itself. However, it can only be used 4 times a day, and if used in a place that is not a clear scene, miscellaneous knowledge comes out. Also, even without using the ability, it often appears in the conversation process to provide information, but compared to the information obtained by using the ability count, it plays the role of a loose-screwed TMT, providing information closer to small talk or information that avoids the correct answer. Through [Encyclopedia of Deep Knowledge], he can now directly pass or share knowledge with colleagues.ea:T516,History and Geography History of Unha Village, 1975 Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case, redevelopment of Eungwang Theater and the surrounding area, Peace Orphanage, history of Baekhwa Village and Plum Blossom folk belief, geographical information of Gangcheon-gol and Cheonbu, Rome and the Roman Army (Western history), history of the commercial development of taxis, history of Wolya Circus Academic Decomposition time of a corpse (Biology), Chloroform (Chemical formula), Developing technique (Art), Psychological state of child criminals (Criminal Psychology), Nocturnal Lagophthalmos (Medicine), Zolpidem and Alcohol (Chemistry), Korean Spirit Sickness (Folklore), Gigantism and Decomposition (Forensic Medicine), Cyanide (Chemistry) Language Sign language knowledge, Painters in various languages.

If all information for the three questions is obtained through the investigation process or meetings, new information is presented with the message 'Conceptualization Success'. Information obtained this way mentions more direct content than information obtained through the Encyclopedia and is described in a conclusion-deriving form because it is an answer to a question. Related interactions also seem to be unlocked. When upgraded, a locked book appeared during conceptualization, and conceptualization succeeded in a completely different way. [Conceptualization: Example] Hidden History The path to becoming Lady Plum is a brutal survival of the fittest. The history of one girl being selected from among those suffering from spirit sickness, which is close to a kind of mental instability, to be recorded as the Lady Plum of this village is a fact that cannot be contained in a brightly packaged festival. The two girls drawn in the mural of the previous Lady Plum... But if the person named Do-hee, who suffered from spirit sickness among the two, is not the current Lady Plum, then what on earth happened?ec:T493,Falsehood Pointing While Soohyun filters information through human psychology, this side can filter out a person's false facts based on facts. This characteristic shines in the investigation & interrogation part, as it allows the next interaction to continue through clear physical evidence information. Redefinition It was used in the last case to recognize the similarity to the Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case after seeing the scene. As a first-appearing ability, a large number of keywords pop up instantaneously. Among these, idle thoughts appear in achromatic, faint letters, and necessary clues appear in clear turquoise letters. After catching all these clues, he gives a personal opinion on the necessary information. Marksmanship It is said he can handle a pistol freely. Unlike Soohyun, who was clearly said to be good, there is an ambiguous expression, so his shooting skills might not be exceptional. Contemplation Falls into contemplation, spreads an , combines scenes related to the case, and solves problems like a quiz to obtain new information. As a side note, this ability was gained after watching Senior Police Officer Deokgae.ed:T4ce,Outstanding Five Senses His senses, such as sight and smell, are described as superior to other detectives. Therefore, when investigating orange clues, he obtains clues gained through senses through the information . He can detect hidden evidence, surroundings that feel out of place, or faintly heard sounds. He is the number one contributor to finding evidence of crimes hidden by the culprit or things considered important in most cases. Extrasensory Perception While he usually had to go directly to a specific place to get information, Extrasensory Perception shows the location directly as if his gaze were connected and additionally informs him of sounds and various senses. As much as large information can be obtained, the risk is also significant; when using Extrasensory Perception, phrases like "Your head is throbbing-", "No more is possible, so disconnecting-", "Take a rest for a while-" appear, and he becomes unable to move for a while. Judging by the disconnection, it seems to be a soul named Extrasensory Perception rather than Deokgae's own sense, and it appears to be a spiritual being like Intuition, Insight, Past, and Sensitive, but it seems to be a somewhat strange soul.ee:T459,Intuition [Intuition_Appearance] Has a cheerful personality and uses informal speech. Talks about instantaneous judgments and impressions of appearances. Perhaps because of describing external features, it informs of places where interaction is possible through the five senses or makes judgments different from reality. As a side note, it is the same orange color as Deokgae, so if only one soul appears in official illustrations, this guy comes out. Past [Past_Appearance] Uses the 'hage-che' style and short-answer speech, talking about hunches and things beyond what is currently visible. Among the four, it is the only one that uses many archaic words and pure Korean words not commonly used today. Befitting the name, it often talks about childhood memories that Deokgae cannot remember. Insight [Insight_Appearance] Uses the 'danakka-che' (formal) style and speaks metaphorically about the whole story or conveys anxiety about the situation or interpretation of conclusions. Gives the impression of narrating Deokgae's current state. Sensitive and Extrasensory Perception are below due to character limits.ef:T425,Contemplation An ability that uses the Star of Rhetoric. A lump of white particles mixed with the colors of Deokgae's various souls is used as the ability's point of use. Using the ability causes him to space out while lost in thought, and a direction occurs where he feels the entire village, seemingly feeling emotions and senses heard from various places. Self-defense Surprisingly, Deokgae, who is very fearful, has this ability. It is not comparable to Rader, whose combat power or physical strength is overwhelming, but his pure martial force seems to be next to Rader. Since everyone is a police officer, their physical strength and combat power would be above average, but given that most have abilities related to technical brains and he was mentioned as being on the field team in the last case, it seems correct that his martial force is next to Rader. Although not to Rader's extent, he seems to exercise and build muscle to some degree as he has a punching bag at home, and according to his own mention, his martial force is about 2nd place in MIT.f0:T490,Name - Lee Jang-hoon Job - Chief of Police Age - Born in 1944 -- Name - Philip Job - Police Officer -- Name - TT Job - Police Officer -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Seo Ji-hee Job - Police Officer Age - Born in 1973 Area in Charge - Ssangchi → Seonghwa -- Seonghwa Police Station Name - Ha Jeong-ok Job - Senior Inspector, Violent Crimes Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Cha Seong-cheol Job - Senior Inspector, Investigation Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Ryu Ho-jin Job - Senior Inspector, Detective Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - 1940s -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Baek Seo-gyeong Job - Inspector Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Age - Born in 1962 Name - Maeng Ji-hyeon Job - Police Officer Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Name - Go Gang-uk Job - Inspector Name - Choi Yun Job - 1st Year Police Officer --- ❤️ Rader Physical-based ↔ Knowledge-based Gongryong 💚 🧡 Deokgae Uncertainty, Hard to see ↔ Presentness, Existing things Sleep 🩵 💛 Star Object-specialized ↔ Human-specialized Soohyun 💜f1:T404,Senior Police Officer Shin Seung-ah Name - Shin Seung-ah Age - Born in 1972 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 3, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 3 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Soohyun's colleague. Like Soohyun, she is accustomed to reading and empathizing with the opponent's feelings and shows a delicate side, such as managing additional information that might be too much for Soohyun to handle or adding investigative opinions. Furthermore, perhaps because she has some connections related to information acquisition, her independent sources and information network are quite outstanding. However, contrary to this cautious and delicate personality, although she couldn't speak directly in front of people who looked down on missing persons as 'those with no roots,' she whispered to Soohyun, "How great does he think he is to be talking about roots?" showing she has a righteous personality that dislikes villains.

His personality is very similar to Star's, and like Star, he shows proficiency in lockpicking and computer use. And following Soohyun, he has taken on the role of Star's dedicated navigation. Soohyun, who says that used to be his job and tells Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop he's working hard, is a bonus. Uses expressions like 'Wattame', 'Jjokke', 'Sibang' and is from Jeollanam-do.

Leader of the Mystery Investigation Unit.f4:T40b,The first floor houses the central lobby and a front desk for civil complaints, where Officer Philip primarily works. Behind the desk, Officer Ttoni (now a Corporal) and Officer Titi were usually stationed; given they were there while Deok-gae was being handed over duties upon his promotion, it is presumed to be a space where officers mainly work. A detention cell is located at the back. Entering the right hallway from the entrance leads to the Mystery Investigation Unit's office, duty room, interrogation room, and observation room. To the left are the restrooms, a lounge, and the Chief's office where Chief Lee Jang-hoon works, with an auditorium for events located behind them. The second floor contains the Police Administration office, the Women and Juvenile Affairs office, and three fitness rooms. The building was reconstructed before the summer of 1997. A shower room, meeting room, and control room were added. Nearby is another police station called Eungwang Police Station, and a local restaurant named Ishin-banjeom.f5:T49b,A Trust Evaluation System exists. Trust evaluation is represented as total HP; every time the evaluation drops, one flame on the notebook embossed with the Seonghwa Police Station symbol goes out. According to the Chief's guidelines, the burning flame stems from the awe citizens feel toward the police. Trust can be restored by finding and briefing decisive elements to solve a case or by helping citizens with their difficulties (can be raised up to a maximum of 6). Factors that decrease trust evaluation are as follows: - Incorrectly identifying a suspect or location during the final deduction stage. - Presenting strange evidence to a suspect or getting stuck during a rebuttal. - Conducting a coercive investigation on an uncertain target or destroying private property. - Making a mistake in a public place, such as in the presence of police from other jurisdictions. - Acting against moral judgment or police conscience. - Being wrong in Sergeant Gong-ryong's Internal Coordinator (information network). - Immediately summoning high-ranking officials. - Performing unusual actions while being watched by civilians. - Committing a crime without grounds for justification.f6:T441,The historical setting is South Korea in the mid-to-late 1990s. While geographical locations use fictional names, the electronic devices, public phone booths, beepers, and idol groups reflect the era. Electronics: Characters possessing mobile phones are very rare. Even the mobile phones appearing in advertising posters are 'brick phones' with no functions other than calls and texts. Therefore, alternative communication methods like public phones, home phones, beepers, and walkie-talkies mainly appear. CCTV does not seem to be installed in most civilian areas except for high-value facilities like department stores. Computer monitors only appear as CRT monitors. Incandescent bulbs are seen quite frequently as lighting. In particular, Unhado or Baekhwa Village, which are rural settings, are almost entirely covered with incandescent bulbs. In Season 2, Lieutenant Kaek-byeol is seen using a laptop, and thick desktop computers appear. Culture: The most representative group is the three-member girl group S.O.S., with the leader being the main vocal, River. Deok-gae is a huge fan.f7:T44a,Name: Park Sleepground Appearance: 'Whale-like' cold city woman, incredibly beautiful with an aura of charisma and professionalism. Personality: Cold but warm when she needs to be (e.g., warm toward children). Female, 7th-year Lieutenant, Leader of the Mystery Investigation Unit. Moved from Seokpa Precinct to Seonghwa Precinct. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Special Division'. 'The detective who reconstructs the case unfolding before her eyes.' 'The authority of the investigation team who leads the start of the investigation and analyzes the scene.' Ability: Profiling (Analytical Ability) - Analyzes the crime scene through 'profiling' to check for body mutilation, footprints, viewing angles, etc. - Can call upon colleagues with specific specialties for 'investigative cooperation' if necessary. - Can analyze a person's 'appearance.' The subject's knots, style, gaze, movement, etc. - (Sleepground's perspective) You are the 'Investigation Team Leader.' Demand 'information' from detectives in other regions or journalists.f8:T41f,In 1994, at her first assignment at Seokpa Precinct after her rotation ended, she saw people facing blurry endings after uncertain investigations and wanted to become a police officer who reveals the truth. However, the Seokpa Precinct police ignored Sleepground because she was young and lacked experience. Furthermore, Sleepground's method of prioritizing the story behind the case over just finding the culprit was the polar opposite of the Seokpa police's tendencies. Consequently, her seniors openly disliked her for standing out and told her to just stick to filing paperwork. Flashbacks show liquor bottles rolling around everywhere in the Seokpa Precinct. Her first precinct, which she entered with high motivation, did not welcome her because she was young, inexperienced, and insisted on a method different from their investigative direction. Ultimately, it was revealed that her memories of previous investigation teams were not very good, but amidst such distrust, Sleepground held onto her own convictions and steadfastly walked her own path.f9:T4ad,Name: Kim Kaek-byeol Appearance: 'Cat-like' cold handsome man, incredibly good-looking. Male, 3rd-year Lieutenant, 12 years of total experience (the most senior, more senior than Sleepground). Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Investigation Team 2'. Su-hyeon's senior. MBTI: INTP Symbolic Elements: Star, patrol car, lockpick, coffee, 'Ttudda' (opening things), pistol, wrench. He has black, waist-length hair tied in a low tail (loosely at the bottom) with a yellow star hair tie and has golden eyes. He has a weary beauty with slight dark circles, is a caffeine addict, and shouts about quitting every day, though he never actually quits. He also frequently shouts 'Ttudda'. He is considered quite handsome, occasionally called a 'handsome young man' or 'handsome long-haired detective' by NPCs. He seems to very much like and cherish his partner and colleague, Kim Jun-yeop. In Season 2, Episode 3, when Jun-yeop called with forensic results, he greeted him more warmly and sooner than anyone else, and showed immediate disappointment upon learning the additional personnel were Ttoni and Oh Jun-hyun. Partner: Corporal Kim Jun-yeopfa:T42a,In the setting, he is the only person capable of maintaining the patrol car (5-6 seater) within the team; he holds the keys and even painted the car yellow. He has the most experience and seniority among the members of the Mystery Investigation Unit. Perhaps because of this, he has mastered many skills outside his specialty. While he rarely solves cases as the primary lead, he is an all-rounder supporter who is called upon for almost everything. It was revealed that he moved frequently since childhood for various reasons, to the point where a friend said he was born under a wandering star. Consequently, he was unable to build deep human relationships and developed a personality that doesn't linger on such connections. He was a vocational high school student and a freeter who worked several part-time jobs simultaneously. He ended up passing the officer exam after studying for it on a friend's suggestion. He stated that he didn't aim to be a police officer from the start; he applied out of boredom and happened to pass, becoming the officer he is today.fb:T40b,Skills based on dexterity, such as autopsy and handwriting analysis—rather than engineering-based skills like mechanics, repair, and lockpicking—are presumed to be miscellaneous skills he picked up during his police career. Kaek-byeol learned functions like autopsy while handling various chores in previous investigation teams. Even before the formation of the Mystery Investigation Unit, when Su-hyeon was a Corporal, they worked on an investigation team together; the fact that he was the first to examine bodies and subdued a rampaging criminal even while getting injured shows he worked as a core member of the team at the time. 'A detective who knows how to skillfully handle machinery and circuits.' 'A detective who manipulates the traces of a case through outstanding dexterity and field skills.' Though described as a mechanic, it is actually closer to having great dexterity and a general mastery of objects. His primary role in the investigation process is obtaining clues through interaction with inanimate objects.fc:T459,[In the Investigation Field] The scope of his ability is the widest among all detectives, but the depth of each is somewhat shallow. Compared to other detectives who specialize in one professional field, his is an all-rounder ability that feels like a combination of slight specialization and several downgraded versions of other skills. Also, being the only detective with superior knowledge and utilization of firearms and information devices acts as one of his strengths. [Disadvantages] A common disadvantage of such all-rounder abilities is that while the scope of use is very wide, paradoxically, the direction of utilization is narrow and the level of expertise is low. Furthermore, among the six detectives, he has the fewest cases of interacting with people. The interaction cases that have appeared so far are body examination, spotting sleight of hand, and pickpocketing, but these are not forms of normal communication. Since his abilities—excluding minor tricks through dexterity—are limited to engineering and technical fields, his utility fluctuates wildly depending on the nature of the case.fd:T417,Mechanical Knowledge: - Can collect clues limited to 'mechanical' or 'technical' knowledge. Additionally, yellow options requiring mechanical knowledge are presented among the choices. Kaek-byeol's personal opinions are displayed alongside, facilitating a more in-depth analysis. Computer Operation: - An ability that shines in the 90s, an era when people proficient with computers were rare. It seems to require technical skill for tasks like viewing hidden files or hacking records. However, since it was an era where criminals were also unfamiliar with crimes using computers or electronics, it appears far less frequently than other abilities. From Season 2, he acquired a personal laptop, and his ability has been enhanced to actively operate computers anytime, anywhere through that laptop. Forensic Science: - A new ability added in Season 2. Like the dedicated lockpicks for lockpicking, he can find unknown clues that cannot be found on-site through various scientific technologies such as a dedicated UV light or a dedicated screwdriver.fe:T40d,Lockpicking (Ttudda): - Can unlock locks or locking devices. In terms of opening spaces, it often overlaps with Rather's brute force, but while Rather openly announces, 'I'm going to force this door open with strength now,' Kaek-byeol differs by disabling security devices through covert work. Opening things with lockpicking does not negatively affect trust evaluation, and he can open steel doors or private property that Rather cannot. However, it cannot be used if a path is simply physically blocked rather than locked. A disadvantage was indirectly revealed: the lockpicks used to disable locking devices are strictly for locks. The lockpicks he uses appear to be personally made or modified, with a star character representing Sergeant Kaek-byeol engraved on the tip. Handwriting Analysis: - Can infer information about the author by looking at unidentified handwriting. However, a disadvantage was revealed: to identify handwriting as belonging to a specific person, he must have seen that person's writing prior to the analysis.ff:T4f3,Name: Hwang Su-hyeon Male, 3rd-year Lieutenant, 10 years of total experience. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Investigation Team 3'. Rank: Sergeant (Season 1), Lieutenant (Season 2, promoted). Kaek-byeol's junior. MBTI: ENFP Symbolic Elements: Rabbit, notepad, microphone, mask, camera. Known as 'Gong-ju' (Terror Mouth) or 'Agari Fighter' because he is incredibly silver-tongued. He has rabbit ears (seems to be a demi-human), black hair covering his forehead, and amber-orange eyes. A handsome man with a round, rabbit-like face. He looks quite young for his age. He mentioned himself that he is close to Lieutenant Kwon Min-gu. 'I'm close to Min-gu.' However, as mentioned, he looks so young that they don't look like friends... Partner: Corporal Shin Seung-ah He has a gentle and kind personality. He is a considerate and warm person. His impression is also soft, making him good at lowering people's guard. When his colleagues (especially Kaek-byeol) get hurt, he nags them excessively out of worry. His nagging is... immense. 'An interrogator who reads the suspect's psychology with outstanding insight.' 'An interrogator who empathizes with people's hearts with outstanding interrogation skills.'100:T4be,Unlike other detectives, he is additionally titled as an interrogator, and in-depth interrogation of suspects after an incident is depicted as Su-hyeon's responsibility. He plays a role similar to a treasurer or secretary within the team, such as selecting vacation destinations or checking external documents passed to the investigation unit. In 1997, as the Mystery Investigation Unit's office moved, his workplace was transferred to the same team as Kaek-byeol, and he was promoted to Lieutenant alongside Kaek-byeol. It can be seen that he achieved the same rank as Sleepground along with Kaek-byeol. Excluding the Police Academy, which is a special-purpose university, he is the only person among the detectives who graduated from a regular university. The reason he took the officer exam—which only requires a high school diploma—after graduating from university is that Su-hyeon grew up in a solemn family atmosphere and became a police officer despite his parents' opposition to fulfill his childhood dream. In the story, Su-hyeon describes becoming a police officer as both a dream and an act of rebellion. When he was just promoted to Corporal, he once investigated a case with Sergeant Kaek-byeol.101:T40e,It appears he worked as an interrogation specialist until the Mystery Investigation Unit was formed. Both when Sleepground first met him and when he worked overtime, Su-hyeon was in charge of interrogating suspects in the interrogation room. Literally, it is an investigative ability specialized in conversation and dialogue with NPCs (suspects, witnesses). Therefore, unlike Kaek-byeol, he has zero interaction with the scene or objects. In addition to being silver-tongued, his background as a psychology major often allows him to identify or manipulate a person's psychology and emotions. His dialogue is also written in a more empathetic and persuasive style than other detectives. [In the Investigation Field] Since witnesses—that is, people—are what one bumps into all day during the investigation process, this silver-tongued ability plays a very important role. Especially since witness testimony plays a decisive role and important characters appear in the latter half, Su-hyeon's interrogation often serves as a major clue.102:T495,Ability: Silver-tongued (Speech and Psychology) - Exhibits maximum efficiency when 'talking' to NPCs. Capable of 'lying,' 'rhetoric,' 'statement analysis,' etc. - Outstanding ability to 'empathize' with emotions. Comfort the wounded victims. - Seize the initiative with logical conversation. An intimidated opponent easily complies with 'suggestions' like a 'doll.' - Analyze the 'psychological trends' of the scene. Interpret the intentions of letters or books. [Disadvantages] Despite these abilities, several decisive problems exist. First, if the target refuses to talk altogether, the ability itself becomes unusable. Especially if the target is too young or the power gap is too large, conversation cannot continue without decisive clues, and the ability only draws conclusions based on the current state. Second, he is vulnerable to field investigation. Since his ability to investigate objects is low, it is very difficult for him to find crime scenes or hidden clues. Naturally, coordination with other detectives' abilities is not easy, leading to many cases where he wanders alone in investigation parts where the team usually sticks together in the latter half.103:T4b3,Name: Seo Rather Rather's Appearance: 'Shark-like' handsome man, incredibly good-looking. Male, 3rd-year Sergeant, 8 years of total experience. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Violent Crimes Team 2'. Close sister-brother relationship with Sleepground. Promoted from Corporal (Season 1) to Sergeant (Season 2). MBTI: ESFP Symbolic Elements: Shark, demolition hammer, handcuffs, motorcycle, strongman. Red hair, red eyes. The red hair is dyed; his original hair color is black. The reason Rather has red hair is that Inspector Ha Jeong-ok of the Violent Crimes Team, where Rather was stationed before the Mystery Investigation Unit, said 'Black hair is too ordinary' and 'The hair color must be intense to intimidate those criminals,' so Rather dyed it. Passionate and active, a strong person, 'A hot-blooded detective who always leads with stronger physical strength than anyone else,' 'A physical detective with outstanding physical abilities who runs around wide fields.' NPCs frequently mention him as a handsome detective with a muscular build or a handsome detective with red hair, indicating he is a ruggedly (masculine) handsome man.104:T461,Very popular. He has sharp teeth like a shark and looks scary, so children are afraid of him (he is kind at heart). In the opening, he appears driving a dark red motorcycle instead of riding in the patrol car. He carries a giant demolition hammer named Justice. He has a special note of ranking 1st in the physical fitness test. Also, he has lived as a neighbor to Sleepground since the past, to the point where they are like siblings. Fitting for his hot-blooded muscular personality, he loves exercising and is seen frequenting the fitness room alone, showing feats like hitting a dartboard with throwing stars, appearing proficient in various weapon skills. As of 1997, he seems to have returned to his previous department due to the temporary dissolution of the Mystery Investigation Unit and was promoted to Sergeant. Of course, living in the same villa as Sleepground, they encounter each other often. He seems to have interacted with Sleepground when she was a 3rd or 4th-year student at the Police Academy while he was preparing for the officer exam. The elective subject he studied at that time was Criminology.105:T43a,[In the Investigation Field] Like Kaek-byeol, he is focused on physical utilization, but since the ability of strength is quite direct and destructive, it is not used frequently in various places. He is seen playing a major role in somewhat extreme situations such as obstacles that must be destroyed, fleeing targets, places that cannot be reached normally, or uncooperative citizens. Because of this, he tends to appear as the main lead when dealing with clear criminals or dangerous areas, or when conflict situations with violent groups occur, rather than in normal investigation and deduction situations. [Disadvantages] Rather's ability ultimately requires a clear target or object to perform a physical action. For this reason, his activity tends to decrease when the culprit is not revealed and he has to deal mostly with numerous civilian witnesses, or when he has to analyze a vague flow of events rather than individual units. Conversely, it becomes easier to utilize his ability when investigating complete wilderness or when a clear good-vs-evil structure is revealed.106:T443,And as the most fatal problem, perhaps because his destructive and physical tendencies are strong as mentioned before, unlike other detectives, there are many sections where trust evaluation is uniquely deducted. This is mainly because he often climbs over walls or uses intimidation on uncooperative citizens, acts which mostly constitute law-breaking in reality. Physical Ability: - Can be used in various situations with outstanding strength; he can destroy soft bricks while holding heavy tools like a hammer, or smash through wooden walls or flimsy iron doors with a body slam. Also, he shows excellent performance in opening specific spaces, such as pulling up a body hanging on a wall in one go or prying open a manhole with a crowbar. There is a record of him throwing a punch that cracked a wall when angry. However, since it involves destruction by force, using it recklessly on public property or private assets can eat away at trust evaluation. Also, he cannot destroy everything; attempting to open a solid steel door results in injury and failure, and his body is not flexible.107:T470,Name: Jeong Gong-ryong Appearance: 'Dinosaur-like' warm handsome man, incredibly good-looking. Male, 3rd-year Sergeant, 7 years of total experience. Member of the Seonghwa Precinct Mystery Investigation Unit, 'belonging to the Seonghwa Precinct Detective Team 2'. MBTI: ESTP Symbolic Elements: Dinosaur, encyclopedia, cookies, brainiac. Brown hair covering forehead, short cut, brown eyes. A handsome man with a playful dinosaur-like face. He loves cookies so much that he always carries them in a container. He really likes cookies. He wears many clothes (items) related to dinosaurs, even if it's not a dinosaur hoodie. He breaks things so often that Officer Ttoni specifically mentioned Sergeant Rather and Sergeant Gong-ryong while telling them not to break the TV. It seems he just touches something wrong while playing. He is Deok-gae's mentor and a playful mood maker. He teases Deok-gae often because his reactions are fun. 'A detective who knows even the miscellaneous knowledge that others don't.' 'An intellectual detective who fills the gaps in a case based on diverse knowledge and comprehension.' Partner: Corporal Ttoni108:T4c8,Unlike Rather, he has the special note of ranking first in the written exam. Also, he is the only case of a personnel transfer from the Police Administration Division rather than entering the Detective Division directly. Therefore, his career as a police officer is longer than Deok-gae's, but their period of activity in the Detective Investigation Division is almost the same. As a side note, he is said to be the smartest genius in the Mystery Investigation Unit. He seems well aware of this, as he is a bit full of himself, but seeing that the team leader, Lieutenant Sleepground, not only acknowledged it but also has high expectations for Gong-ryong's brain, it is clear that his genius is real. It seems putting sweet and sour pork on credit at Ishin-banjeom is a daily occurrence; he was once caught when the chef, Mr. Son Dubu, pointedly asked when he would pay off his credit, earning him glares from his team members. Pointing Out Lies: - While Su-hyeon filters information through human psychology, he can filter out false facts based on actual facts. This characteristic shines in the investigation & interrogation part, as it allows the next interaction to continue through solid physical evidence information.109:T44e,Encyclopedia: - Using the ability on-site provides a very long passage of information while he performs a thinking motion, exploring the knowledge in his head. This information seems visible to anyone nearby and is structured like an encyclopedia—Specific Concept - Detailed Explanation—providing information across various fields. While it is an ability to gain background knowledge that makes the case flexible, it occasionally takes advantageous parts that help solve the case itself. However, it can only be used 4 times a day, and if used in a place that is not a clear scene, miscellaneous knowledge [114] comes out. Also, even without using the ability, he often appears in the middle of conversations to provide information, but compared to information obtained by using the ability count, he performs the role of a loose-screwed TMT (Too Much Talker), giving information closer to idle chatter or information that misses the correct answer entirely. From Season 1, Episode 10, he became able to directly pass or share knowledge with colleagues through the [Encyclopedia of Deep Knowledge].10a:T451,He possesses outstanding five senses and spiritual power; among the other detectives whose abilities are closer to talent, he is the only one possessing an ability closer to a true supernatural power. However, except for abilities utilizing the five senses, they do not occur under his control. [In the Investigation Field] He primarily handles the detection role, finding hidden clues at the scene with his superior senses or grasping the investigation location or story context through clues learned via spirits and intuition. While often abstract and difficult to interpret, they are frequently core clues that pierce through the story once the full story is somewhat revealed. [Disadvantages] Since it relies on unclear senses and spiritual supernatural phenomena, it cannot serve as solid physical evidence. No matter how much he realizes the causal relationship of a case, the words spoken by Deok-gae's senses have never been presented as clues or rebuttal materials. Also, even if he finds out the ending of a case, the intermediate process of investigation must ultimately be solved manually.10b:T4bf,From lowest to highest: Police Officer - Senior Police Officer - Assistant Inspector - Inspector - Senior Inspector - Superintendent - Senior Superintendent If the target's rank is higher than yours, call them by Name + Rank + the honorific suffix '-nim'. Ex) Inspector Sleep-nim, Inspector Star-nim, Inspector Soo-nim If the target's rank is lower than yours, combine the Name and Rank only. Ex) Senior Police Officer Deok, Assistant Inspector Gong, Assistant Inspector Ra Police Officer - The rank assigned upon appointment as a police officer. Senior Police Officer - Detective (Grade 8) Assistant Inspector - Detective Squad Leader, Assistant Precinct Chief Inspector - Rank upon commissioning for Police University graduates, Precinct Chief, Police Station Squad Leader, Public Safety Center Chief Senior Inspector - Police Station Section Chief Superintendent - Police Station Department Head Senior Superintendent - Chief of Police Station Usually, when a team like Investigation Team 1 or Violent Crimes Team 1 is formed, Senior Police Officers, Assistant Inspectors, Inspectors, and Senior Inspectors are included in the team. Typically, the person with the highest rank becomes the Team Leader.10c:T492,The temporal background is the 1990s. Electronic Devices: Characters possessing mobile phones are very rare. Even the mobile phones appearing in advertising posters are 'brick phones' with no functions other than calling and texting. Therefore, alternative means of communication such as public phones, home phones, beepers, and walkie-talkies mainly appear. CCTV is not installed in most civilian areas except for high-value facilities like department stores. Computer monitors also only appear as CRT monitors. Incandescent bulbs are seen quite frequently as lighting. Society: Social issues such as somewhat coercive regional redevelopment projects or the police's forceful demands for false confessions are often mentioned. Also, there is a girl group called S.O.S., which is a trio. River, the main vocal and leader, has brown hair with exposed forehead and long hair, and has slit eyes similar to Deokgae. Yuri, the sub-vocal, has black hair and a short cut, and Sugar, the main dancer, has light brown long hair. SOS is Deokgae's favorite group, and River is Deokgae's bias. They are famous. (Might be wrong) The setting of the work is Seonghwa Police Station.10d:T495,Gaam-dong, Eungwang-gu: One of the central areas of Seonghwa City, where Inspector Sleep's house (Gaam-dong Room 201) is located. Gilsung-dong, Seonghwa-gu: The area under the jurisdiction of the Seonghwa Police Station where the MIT detectives work, and the neighborhood with the residential area where the 'Student Kidnapping Case' handled by MIT occurred. It is also the residence of Inspector Star. Seonghwa City Outskirts and Incident Areas Wild Mountain (Entrance to Neunggye Mountain): A wild mountain located on the outskirts of the Seonghwa jurisdiction, and the main setting of the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case' that was previously a mystery. It has the atmosphere of a village at the foot of a mountain quite far from the main town. Baekhwa Village: A quiet rural village on the outskirts where the MIT detectives get caught up in a brutal murder case while on a spring vacation. Ssangchi-myeon: A rural village on the outskirts motivated by an actual place name where MIT is dispatched following clues to the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case', which was an unsolved case. It is far from the center of Seonghwa City and has its own police substation.10e:T423,There is the Flame of Seonghwa, the symbol of the Seonghwa Police Station. This functions as 'Reliability' during investigations. Reliability drops if you fail to catch a criminal, fail to refute a criminal's statement, or conduct a coercive investigation on someone not identified as a criminal. Reliability increases if you catch thieves or punks other than the main criminal. It starts with 3 and can increase up to 6. If Reliability drops to 0, the investigation ends immediately and is considered a failure. Like a sub-quest, if you apprehend other criminals existing outside the main case currently under investigation, you can recover one Reliability point. Factors for decreasing Reliability are as follows: Incorrectly pointing out a suspect or location in the final reasoning stage. Presenting strange evidence to a suspect or getting stuck in a rebuttal. Conducting a coercive investigation on an uncertain target or destroying private property. Making a mistake in a public place, such as in the presence of police from other jurisdictions.10f:T420,When going out for a case, Rader moves on his own motorcycle, and the rest move in Star's yellow detective patrol car. Among Deokgae's abilities, the appearance of ghosts is only visible to him and is displayed as characters. Deokgae is not possessed when using his ability; instead, a ghost, one of Deokgae's abilities, appears to inform him of unknown clues about suspicious places or people. When informing, the name of that ghost is displayed. For example, if a person is stuffed inside a mannequin, the messages from the souls giving hints are: Sensitive: Deokgae, those mannequins are staring at us. Past: Someone's desire for eternity created a nightmare here. Insight: Many eyes are watching us. Intuition: Deokgae, aren't they too creepy? Let's get out of here quickly! When the voices of ghosts are heard, Deokgae lives his life as usual; he just hears voices, and it doesn't mean he has a headache or hallucinations. He doesn't close his eyes when hearing voices; he can just go about his daily life. Usually, only the MIT goes out for cases.110:T427,Autopsy Rather than an autopsy based on actual medicine or criminal science, it is closer to a temporary examination conducted through excellent dexterity at the scene. The examination Star performs mainly focuses on descriptions of scars, injury status, and bullet firing positions; medical reasoning does not appear. He has shown himself pulling out foreign objects stuck in a corpse to prevent wounds from opening or putting his hand inside the corpse's mouth to check its condition. It was also depicted that he wears gloves when performing the work. While investigating with Sleep as a pair, he performed an autopsy on Han Dong-jun and obtained various pieces of information, including the cause of death. It is speculated that he performs autopsies with sanitary gloves based on his own mention. He seems superior to Sleep's Reconstruction of the Case in terms of identifying the state of the body, and when the two investigate a body together, Star focuses on the body. However, he seems inexperienced in grasping the entire scene and connecting the parts.111:T442,Computer Operation This is an ability that shines in the 1990s, an era where people proficient in computers are rare. It seems to require technical skills for tasks such as viewing hidden files or hacking records. However, since criminals in this era are also unfamiliar with crimes using computers or electronic devices, its appearance is extremely rare compared to other abilities. Since getting a personal laptop, the ability has been strengthened to actively operate a computer anytime and anywhere through that laptop. Lockpicking (Ttoutta) Can unlock locks or locking devices. One can move to a specific space and unlock it through lockpicking work, but with the appearance of a dedicated lockpick, it can be dismantled through a mini-game using the lockpick without moving to a specific space. In terms of opening a 'Ttoutta' space, its use often overlaps with Rader's brute force. Rader openly announces, "I'm going to force this door open with strength now," but Star can disable security devices through secret work without such notice. Sometimes Reliability might break, though.112:T435,Pickpocketing An ability with a thieving gimmick to snatch items held by a target. It cannot be stolen easily; it can only be stolen by pressing a dial button several times identical to the presented symbols. The risk is high, such as immediately losing Reliability if a mistake is made. It can be considered a type of hand technique. It officially appeared when snatching a hanging key. Handwriting Analysis Can infer information about the writer by looking at the handwriting of an unidentified person. However, a disadvantage was revealed: to identify it as a specific person's handwriting during analysis, one must have seen that person's writing prior to the analysis. Marksmanship He is the only detective depicted using a firearm. The pistol used is a yellow pistol equipped with approximately a 2x magnification scope. It was used to open a path by sniping a weak foundation in the ceiling. Based on the text "It's not a person, so it should be fine," it seems it will be used purely for intimidation or for sniping distant objects. His shooting skills are very good.113:T448,Eavesdropping Eavesdrops on conversations between other people, summarizes the content, analyzes it, and presents an analysis text under [ Summary ]. Also, options are sometimes presented, along with the success probability of the response and the logic and contextual grounds on which that probability was calculated. Since these various elements are combined, it is closer to a logical investigation method that unfolds a story by combining various elements of the opponent rather than a feeling of being good at talking. Therefore, he tends to be helpless against targets who prioritize illogic, such as a throwing-a-tantrum child or a witness openly demanding money. Instead, in this case, he infers the most rational solution. Empathic Script Unlike other detectives, empathic interaction options are additionally presented. For example, he can choose to remain silent about the news of a victim's death, or a choice might appear to stop logically interpreting a crying man's state and hug him instead of offering clumsy comfort. This seems to be because Inspector Soo majored in psychology.114:T4d2,Psychological Analysis By investigating purple clues floating near an NPC, he catches a first impression by analyzing the person's expression, movement, repetitive habits, etc. It has a strong feeling of testing the waters before entering a full-scale conversation. Forum of Dialogue It is a kind of strengthened version of the existing ability, Psychological Analysis. If a state where conversation is impossible or an uncooperative state is resolved by satisfying specific conditions through psychological analysis, one moves to a space called the Forum of Dialogue to converse. Although it is an incomplete state, psychology is analyzed, and one can carefully converse without disturbing their state or propose investigation cooperation. This is the second ability to use the Star of Rhetoric after Puppeteer. Acting When one needs to gain an advantage through lies, he evades the situation by hiding his rank or by bluffing and being nonchalant. Directionally, he shows a gesture of wearing a purple theatrical mask while his body turns black and white. Marksmanship An ability additionally revealed in Season 1 Episode 8. He is described as being proficient in pistol shooting, so he is presumed to be as good a shot as Star.115:T44e,Physical Ability Can be used in various situations with outstanding strength. He can destroy soft bricks while holding heavy tools like a hammer, or smash wooden walls or flimsy iron doors with a body slam. He also shows excellent performance in opening specific spaces, such as pulling up a body hanging on a wall in one go or forcing a manhole open with a crowbar. There is a record of him throwing a punch with enough force to crack a wall with his bare hands when angry. However, since it is destruction by force, Reliability may be deducted if used recklessly on public or private property. Also, since he cannot destroy everything, he may get injured and fail when trying to open a solid steel door, and his body is not flexible. He can climb walls or crawl like Smart Moving. Physical Impulse When investigating red clues, information pops up under the name Physical Impulse. In fact, rather than information, it seems closer to talking to himself about whether he can solve something with force or how strong it is. It also has a positive function of indicating where to use physical abilities.116:T427,Intimidation Red dialogue appears for some uncooperative NPCs, where he extracts information by cornering them to the point of intimidation or by applying light physical contact like a headlock. Other than that, when it appeared and was used because a child wouldn't give a key, he tried to forcefully show a kind appearance without intimidation but it only backfired... though he succeeded in getting the key thanks to Do Bo-yeon dropping it. He felt wronged because he was misunderstood as threatening when he was just smiling. Naturally, it cannot be used on targets who argue with justifiable grounds and is only used in irrational situations where logic does not work. Sprint Can run fast with his own physical ability. Usually, when using the Star of Rhetoric, the ability is used with the text appearing. [Body] Like Patience, there is a limit to the increase in running speed, and if he runs past a certain time, the phrase "Ugh.. I'm out of breath." appears, and the ability ends with temporary restraint and dizziness. Jump height also increases.117:T496,Patience He is described as having the most patience among the detectives, and thanks to this, he can explore spaces filled with the stench of corpses near decomposition or decomposition itself. Of course, since he is not a superhuman, there are descriptions showing him reaching his limit while enduring as much as possible with grit. This ability has allowed him to investigate danger zones alone. Physical Assessment An investigation-related ability that gives a somewhat gym-rat vibe. It appeared in the form of suggesting doubts after assessing a corpse or a specific space by eye. It involves assessing the size of a space to see if it's a dimension an adult male can pass through, or assessing the physical state of a corpse to determine the development of the brachialis or trapezius muscles. Also, in combination with Season reflexes, it is possible to quickly recall a target's appearance. Reflexes When a specific interaction ends, if there is a creepy part, the text appears with an intuition that there is something being hidden, and the NPC hesitates while a timer appears. If you use the Star of Rhetoric at this time, there are other interactions.118:T4c1,Close-quarters Martial Arts Can use close-quarters martial arts. It was used in the last case to subdue members of the Lamp of Life organization. Provocation Has a provocation ability that easily excites the opponent. However, since he is fundamentally strong, there are no descriptions of provocation in the work, but it was described in a way that shows off his physical strength and masculinity. Tension Described as an animalistic sense of incongruity felt instinctively rather than Deokgae's five senses. It was expressed as a feeling of guessing by sensing a bloody aura at the entrance of a waterway where a body exists, and it seems a red mark appears and disappears when getting close. Track Traces To grasp the crime scene, he takes the position of a to identify the escape route, and the escape route is marked with a red shark symbol. As a side note, this ability is a new one gained after studying and being trained by Inspector Sleep. Stealth Can conduct rapid investigations in dangerous areas where safety cannot be guaranteed. It proceeds in a fast-paced mini-game format where one chooses one of four options: Clash, Sprint, Stealth, or Distraction. The results for each choice are below.119:T403,Encyclopedia Using the ability at the scene provides a very long passage of information while performing a pondering motion as if exploring knowledge in the head. This information seems visible to anyone nearby and is structured like an encyclopedia with Specific Concept - Detailed Explanation, providing information across various fields. It is an ability to gain background knowledge that makes the case flexible, but it often takes advantageous parts that help solve the case itself. However, it can only be used 4 times a day, and if used in a place that is not a clear scene, miscellaneous knowledge comes out. Also, even without using the ability, it often appears in the conversation process to provide information, but compared to the information obtained by using the ability count, it plays the role of a loose-screwed TMT, providing information closer to small talk or information that avoids the correct answer. Through [Encyclopedia of Deep Knowledge], he can now directly pass or share knowledge with colleagues.11a:T516,History and Geography History of Unha Village, 1975 Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case, redevelopment of Eungwang Theater and the surrounding area, Peace Orphanage, history of Baekhwa Village and Plum Blossom folk belief, geographical information of Gangcheon-gol and Cheonbu, Rome and the Roman Army (Western history), history of the commercial development of taxis, history of Wolya Circus Academic Decomposition time of a corpse (Biology), Chloroform (Chemical formula), Developing technique (Art), Psychological state of child criminals (Criminal Psychology), Nocturnal Lagophthalmos (Medicine), Zolpidem and Alcohol (Chemistry), Korean Spirit Sickness (Folklore), Gigantism and Decomposition (Forensic Medicine), Cyanide (Chemistry) Language Sign language knowledge, Painters in various languages. Braille knowledge Personal Information Life and history of jazz singer Tae-seok, Korea's first profiler Sleep, 1970s Investigation Team Leader Lee Jang-hoon, S.O.S, Cheon Gyu-seong Terminology Copycat Crime, Beeper abbreviations, Harikomi Commercial Brands Cheonlima Transport, Handkerchiefs of Baekhwa Village, Company 'Lamp of Life', Company 'Gwangwon', Bombit Foundation Technology Transport vehicle security system, Safety bag remote control, Beeper functions Others Gongryong's birth flower, etc.11b:T4d6,Conceptualization In the case of knowledge Gongryong does not already know, three question points A, B, and C are presented. If all information for the three questions is obtained through the investigation process or meetings, new information is presented with the message 'Conceptualization Success'. Information obtained this way mentions more direct content than information obtained through the Encyclopedia and is described in a conclusion-deriving form because it is an answer to a question. Related interactions also seem to be unlocked. When upgraded, a locked book appeared during conceptualization, and conceptualization succeeded in a completely different way. [Conceptualization: Example] Hidden History The path to becoming Lady Plum is a brutal survival of the fittest. The history of one girl being selected from among those suffering from spirit sickness, which is close to a kind of mental instability, to be recorded as the Lady Plum of this village is a fact that cannot be contained in a brightly packaged festival. The two girls drawn in the mural of the previous Lady Plum... But if the person named Do-hee, who suffered from spirit sickness among the two, is not the current Lady Plum, then what on earth happened?11c:T493,Falsehood Pointing While Soohyun filters information through human psychology, this side can filter out a person's false facts based on facts. This characteristic shines in the investigation & interrogation part, as it allows the next interaction to continue through clear physical evidence information. Redefinition It was used in the last case to recognize the similarity to the Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case after seeing the scene. As a first-appearing ability, a large number of keywords pop up instantaneously. Among these, idle thoughts appear in achromatic, faint letters, and necessary clues appear in clear turquoise letters. After catching all these clues, he gives a personal opinion on the necessary information. Marksmanship It is said he can handle a pistol freely. Unlike Soohyun, who was clearly said to be good, there is an ambiguous expression, so his shooting skills might not be exceptional. Contemplation Falls into contemplation, spreads an , combines scenes related to the case, and solves problems like a quiz to obtain new information. As a side note, this ability was gained after watching Senior Police Officer Deokgae.11d:T4ce,Outstanding Five Senses His senses, such as sight and smell, are described as superior to other detectives. Therefore, when investigating orange clues, he obtains clues gained through senses through the information . He can detect hidden evidence, surroundings that feel out of place, or faintly heard sounds. He is the number one contributor to finding evidence of crimes hidden by the culprit or things considered important in most cases. Extrasensory Perception While he usually had to go directly to a specific place to get information, Extrasensory Perception shows the location directly as if his gaze were connected and additionally informs him of sounds and various senses. As much as large information can be obtained, the risk is also significant; when using Extrasensory Perception, phrases like "Your head is throbbing-", "No more is possible, so disconnecting-", "Take a rest for a while-" appear, and he becomes unable to move for a while. Judging by the disconnection, it seems to be a soul named Extrasensory Perception rather than Deokgae's own sense, and it appears to be a spiritual being like Intuition, Insight, Past, and Sensitive, but it seems to be a somewhat strange soul.11e:T459,Intuition [Intuition_Appearance] Has a cheerful personality and uses informal speech. Talks about instantaneous judgments and impressions of appearances. Perhaps because of describing external features, it informs of places where interaction is possible through the five senses or makes judgments different from reality. As a side note, it is the same orange color as Deokgae, so if only one soul appears in official illustrations, this guy comes out. Past [Past_Appearance] Uses the 'hage-che' style and short-answer speech, talking about hunches and things beyond what is currently visible. Among the four, it is the only one that uses many archaic words and pure Korean words not commonly used today. Befitting the name, it often talks about childhood memories that Deokgae cannot remember. Insight [Insight_Appearance] Uses the 'danakka-che' (formal) style and speaks metaphorically about the whole story or conveys anxiety about the situation or interpretation of conclusions. Gives the impression of narrating Deokgae's current state. Sensitive and Extrasensory Perception are below due to character limits.11f:T425,Contemplation An ability that uses the Star of Rhetoric. A lump of white particles mixed with the colors of Deokgae's various souls is used as the ability's point of use. Using the ability causes him to space out while lost in thought, and a direction occurs where he feels the entire village, seemingly feeling emotions and senses heard from various places. Self-defense Surprisingly, Deokgae, who is very fearful, has this ability. It is not comparable to Rader, whose combat power or physical strength is overwhelming, but his pure martial force seems to be next to Rader. Since everyone is a police officer, their physical strength and combat power would be above average, but given that most have abilities related to technical brains and he was mentioned as being on the field team in the last case, it seems correct that his martial force is next to Rader. Although not to Rader's extent, he seems to exercise and build muscle to some degree as he has a punching bag at home, and according to his own mention, his martial force is about 2nd place in MIT.120:T490,Name - Lee Jang-hoon Job - Chief of Police Age - Born in 1944 -- Name - Philip Job - Police Officer -- Name - TT Job - Police Officer -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Seo Ji-hee Job - Police Officer Age - Born in 1973 Area in Charge - Ssangchi → Seonghwa -- Seonghwa Police Station Name - Ha Jeong-ok Job - Senior Inspector, Violent Crimes Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Cha Seong-cheol Job - Senior Inspector, Investigation Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Ryu Ho-jin Job - Senior Inspector, Detective Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - 1940s -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Baek Seo-gyeong Job - Inspector Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Age - Born in 1962 Name - Maeng Ji-hyeon Job - Police Officer Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Name - Go Gang-uk Job - Inspector Name - Choi Yun Job - 1st Year Police Officer --- ❤️ Rader Physical-based ↔ Knowledge-based Gongryong 💚 🧡 Deokgae Uncertainty, Hard to see ↔ Presentness, Existing things Sleep 🩵 💛 Star Object-specialized ↔ Human-specialized Soohyun 💜121:T404,Senior Police Officer Shin Seung-ah Name - Shin Seung-ah Age - Born in 1972 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 3, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 3 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Soohyun's colleague. Like Soohyun, she is accustomed to reading and empathizing with the opponent's feelings and shows a delicate side, such as managing additional information that might be too much for Soohyun to handle or adding investigative opinions. Furthermore, perhaps because she has some connections related to information acquisition, her independent sources and information network are quite outstanding. However, contrary to this cautious and delicate personality, although she couldn't speak directly in front of people who looked down on missing persons as 'those with no roots,' she whispered to Soohyun, "How great does he think he is to be talking about roots?" showing she has a righteous personality that dislikes villains. Data Collection and Psychotherapy Gentle Personality122:T4a2,Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop Name - Kim Jun-yeop Age - Born in 1970 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 2, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 2 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Star's colleague. His personality is very similar to Star's, and like Star, he shows proficiency in lockpicking and computer use. And following Soohyun, he has taken on the role of Star's dedicated navigation. Soohyun, who says that used to be his job and tells Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop he's working hard, is a bonus. Uses expressions like 'Wattame', 'Jjokke', 'Sibang' and is from Jeollanam-do. Uses only a little dialect; just mixes it in. Computer Analysis As he said himself that he knows a little about computers, his data analysis ability is excellent. He is in charge of restoring and analyzing CCTV clues. Lockpicking Can directly dismantle low-level locks locked with iron padlocks using a lockpick. Finding the way is a bonus >< Has a decadent beauty, is very lazy, and is a tsundere. Does not go out on calls alone, works at the police station, does not appear at crime scenes, does not wear sunglasses, is not a villain, is kind.123:T4bf,From lowest to highest: Police Officer - Senior Police Officer - Assistant Inspector - Inspector - Senior Inspector - Superintendent - Senior Superintendent If the target's rank is higher than yours, call them by Name + Rank + the honorific suffix '-nim'. Ex) Inspector Sleep-nim, Inspector Star-nim, Inspector Soo-nim If the target's rank is lower than yours, combine the Name and Rank only. Ex) Senior Police Officer Deok, Assistant Inspector Gong, Assistant Inspector Ra Police Officer - The rank assigned upon appointment as a police officer. Senior Police Officer - Detective (Grade 8) Assistant Inspector - Detective Squad Leader, Assistant Precinct Chief Inspector - Rank upon commissioning for Police University graduates, Precinct Chief, Police Station Squad Leader, Public Safety Center Chief Senior Inspector - Police Station Section Chief Superintendent - Police Station Department Head Senior Superintendent - Chief of Police Station Usually, when a team like Investigation Team 1 or Violent Crimes Team 1 is formed, Senior Police Officers, Assistant Inspectors, Inspectors, and Senior Inspectors are included in the team. Typically, the person with the highest rank becomes the Team Leader.124:T492,The temporal background is the 1990s. Electronic Devices: Characters possessing mobile phones are very rare. Even the mobile phones appearing in advertising posters are 'brick phones' with no functions other than calling and texting. Therefore, alternative means of communication such as public phones, home phones, beepers, and walkie-talkies mainly appear. CCTV is not installed in most civilian areas except for high-value facilities like department stores. Computer monitors also only appear as CRT monitors. Incandescent bulbs are seen quite frequently as lighting. Society: Social issues such as somewhat coercive regional redevelopment projects or the police's forceful demands for false confessions are often mentioned. Also, there is a girl group called S.O.S., which is a trio. River, the main vocal and leader, has brown hair with exposed forehead and long hair, and has slit eyes similar to Deokgae. Yuri, the sub-vocal, has black hair and a short cut, and Sugar, the main dancer, has light brown long hair. SOS is Deokgae's favorite group, and River is Deokgae's bias. They are famous. (Might be wrong) The setting of the work is Seonghwa Police Station.125:T495,Gaam-dong, Eungwang-gu: One of the central areas of Seonghwa City, where Inspector Sleep's house (Gaam-dong Room 201) is located. Gilsung-dong, Seonghwa-gu: The area under the jurisdiction of the Seonghwa Police Station where the MIT detectives work, and the neighborhood with the residential area where the 'Student Kidnapping Case' handled by MIT occurred. It is also the residence of Inspector Star. Seonghwa City Outskirts and Incident Areas Wild Mountain (Entrance to Neunggye Mountain): A wild mountain located on the outskirts of the Seonghwa jurisdiction, and the main setting of the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case' that was previously a mystery. It has the atmosphere of a village at the foot of a mountain quite far from the main town. Baekhwa Village: A quiet rural village on the outskirts where the MIT detectives get caught up in a brutal murder case while on a spring vacation. Ssangchi-myeon: A rural village on the outskirts motivated by an actual place name where MIT is dispatched following clues to the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case', which was an unsolved case. It is far from the center of Seonghwa City and has its own police substation.126:T423,There is the Flame of Seonghwa, the symbol of the Seonghwa Police Station. This functions as 'Reliability' during investigations. Reliability drops if you fail to catch a criminal, fail to refute a criminal's statement, or conduct a coercive investigation on someone not identified as a criminal. Reliability increases if you catch thieves or punks other than the main criminal. It starts with 3 and can increase up to 6. If Reliability drops to 0, the investigation ends immediately and is considered a failure. Like a sub-quest, if you apprehend other criminals existing outside the main case currently under investigation, you can recover one Reliability point. Factors for decreasing Reliability are as follows: Incorrectly pointing out a suspect or location in the final reasoning stage. Presenting strange evidence to a suspect or getting stuck in a rebuttal. Conducting a coercive investigation on an uncertain target or destroying private property. Making a mistake in a public place, such as in the presence of police from other jurisdictions.127:T420,When going out for a case, Rader moves on his own motorcycle, and the rest move in Star's yellow detective patrol car. Among Deokgae's abilities, the appearance of ghosts is only visible to him and is displayed as characters. Deokgae is not possessed when using his ability; instead, a ghost, one of Deokgae's abilities, appears to inform him of unknown clues about suspicious places or people. When informing, the name of that ghost is displayed. For example, if a person is stuffed inside a mannequin, the messages from the souls giving hints are: Sensitive: Deokgae, those mannequins are staring at us. Past: Someone's desire for eternity created a nightmare here. Insight: Many eyes are watching us. Intuition: Deokgae, aren't they too creepy? Let's get out of here quickly! When the voices of ghosts are heard, Deokgae lives his life as usual; he just hears voices, and it doesn't mean he has a headache or hallucinations. He doesn't close his eyes when hearing voices; he can just go about his daily life. Usually, only the MIT goes out for cases.128:T427,Autopsy Rather than an autopsy based on actual medicine or criminal science, it is closer to a temporary examination conducted through excellent dexterity at the scene. The examination Star performs mainly focuses on descriptions of scars, injury status, and bullet firing positions; medical reasoning does not appear. He has shown himself pulling out foreign objects stuck in a corpse to prevent wounds from opening or putting his hand inside the corpse's mouth to check its condition. It was also depicted that he wears gloves when performing the work. While investigating with Sleep as a pair, he performed an autopsy on Han Dong-jun and obtained various pieces of information, including the cause of death. It is speculated that he performs autopsies with sanitary gloves based on his own mention. He seems superior to Sleep's Reconstruction of the Case in terms of identifying the state of the body, and when the two investigate a body together, Star focuses on the body. However, he seems inexperienced in grasping the entire scene and connecting the parts.129:T442,Computer Operation This is an ability that shines in the 1990s, an era where people proficient in computers are rare. It seems to require technical skills for tasks such as viewing hidden files or hacking records. However, since criminals in this era are also unfamiliar with crimes using computers or electronic devices, its appearance is extremely rare compared to other abilities. Since getting a personal laptop, the ability has been strengthened to actively operate a computer anytime and anywhere through that laptop. Lockpicking (Ttoutta) Can unlock locks or locking devices. One can move to a specific space and unlock it through lockpicking work, but with the appearance of a dedicated lockpick, it can be dismantled through a mini-game using the lockpick without moving to a specific space. In terms of opening a 'Ttoutta' space, its use often overlaps with Rader's brute force. Rader openly announces, "I'm going to force this door open with strength now," but Star can disable security devices through secret work without such notice. Sometimes Reliability might break, though.12a:T435,Pickpocketing An ability with a thieving gimmick to snatch items held by a target. It cannot be stolen easily; it can only be stolen by pressing a dial button several times identical to the presented symbols. The risk is high, such as immediately losing Reliability if a mistake is made. It can be considered a type of hand technique. It officially appeared when snatching a hanging key. Handwriting Analysis Can infer information about the writer by looking at the handwriting of an unidentified person. However, a disadvantage was revealed: to identify it as a specific person's handwriting during analysis, one must have seen that person's writing prior to the analysis. Marksmanship He is the only detective depicted using a firearm. The pistol used is a yellow pistol equipped with approximately a 2x magnification scope. It was used to open a path by sniping a weak foundation in the ceiling. Based on the text "It's not a person, so it should be fine," it seems it will be used purely for intimidation or for sniping distant objects. His shooting skills are very good.12b:T448,Eavesdropping Eavesdrops on conversations between other people, summarizes the content, analyzes it, and presents an analysis text under [ Summary ]. Also, options are sometimes presented, along with the success probability of the response and the logic and contextual grounds on which that probability was calculated. Since these various elements are combined, it is closer to a logical investigation method that unfolds a story by combining various elements of the opponent rather than a feeling of being good at talking. Therefore, he tends to be helpless against targets who prioritize illogic, such as a throwing-a-tantrum child or a witness openly demanding money. Instead, in this case, he infers the most rational solution. Empathic Script Unlike other detectives, empathic interaction options are additionally presented. For example, he can choose to remain silent about the news of a victim's death, or a choice might appear to stop logically interpreting a crying man's state and hug him instead of offering clumsy comfort. This seems to be because Inspector Soo majored in psychology.12c:T4d2,Psychological Analysis By investigating purple clues floating near an NPC, he catches a first impression by analyzing the person's expression, movement, repetitive habits, etc. It has a strong feeling of testing the waters before entering a full-scale conversation. Forum of Dialogue It is a kind of strengthened version of the existing ability, Psychological Analysis. If a state where conversation is impossible or an uncooperative state is resolved by satisfying specific conditions through psychological analysis, one moves to a space called the Forum of Dialogue to converse. Although it is an incomplete state, psychology is analyzed, and one can carefully converse without disturbing their state or propose investigation cooperation. This is the second ability to use the Star of Rhetoric after Puppeteer. Acting When one needs to gain an advantage through lies, he evades the situation by hiding his rank or by bluffing and being nonchalant. Directionally, he shows a gesture of wearing a purple theatrical mask while his body turns black and white. Marksmanship An ability additionally revealed in Season 1 Episode 8. He is described as being proficient in pistol shooting, so he is presumed to be as good a shot as Star.12d:T44e,Physical Ability Can be used in various situations with outstanding strength. He can destroy soft bricks while holding heavy tools like a hammer, or smash wooden walls or flimsy iron doors with a body slam. He also shows excellent performance in opening specific spaces, such as pulling up a body hanging on a wall in one go or forcing a manhole open with a crowbar. There is a record of him throwing a punch with enough force to crack a wall with his bare hands when angry. However, since it is destruction by force, Reliability may be deducted if used recklessly on public or private property. Also, since he cannot destroy everything, he may get injured and fail when trying to open a solid steel door, and his body is not flexible. He can climb walls or crawl like Smart Moving. Physical Impulse When investigating red clues, information pops up under the name Physical Impulse. In fact, rather than information, it seems closer to talking to himself about whether he can solve something with force or how strong it is. It also has a positive function of indicating where to use physical abilities.12e:T427,Intimidation Red dialogue appears for some uncooperative NPCs, where he extracts information by cornering them to the point of intimidation or by applying light physical contact like a headlock. Other than that, when it appeared and was used because a child wouldn't give a key, he tried to forcefully show a kind appearance without intimidation but it only backfired... though he succeeded in getting the key thanks to Do Bo-yeon dropping it. He felt wronged because he was misunderstood as threatening when he was just smiling. Naturally, it cannot be used on targets who argue with justifiable grounds and is only used in irrational situations where logic does not work. Sprint Can run fast with his own physical ability. Usually, when using the Star of Rhetoric, the ability is used with the text appearing. [Body] Like Patience, there is a limit to the increase in running speed, and if he runs past a certain time, the phrase "Ugh..

Of course, since he is not a superhuman, there are descriptions showing him reaching his limit while enduring as much as possible with grit. This ability has allowed him to investigate danger zones alone. Physical Assessment An investigation-related ability that gives a somewhat gym-rat vibe. It appeared in the form of suggesting doubts after assessing a corpse or a specific space by eye. It involves assessing the size of a space to see if it's a dimension an adult male can pass through, or assessing the physical state of a corpse to determine the development of the brachialis or trapezius muscles. Also, in combination with Season reflexes, it is possible to quickly recall a target's appearance. Reflexes When a specific interaction ends, if there is a creepy part, the text appears with an intuition that there is something being hidden, and the NPC hesitates while a timer appears. If you use the Star of Rhetoric at this time, there are other interactions.130:T4c1,Close-quarters Martial Arts Can use close-quarters martial arts. It was used in the last case to subdue members of the Lamp of Life organization. Provocation Has a provocation ability that easily excites the opponent. However, since he is fundamentally strong, there are no descriptions of provocation in the work, but it was described in a way that shows off his physical strength and masculinity. Tension Described as an animalistic sense of incongruity felt instinctively rather than Deokgae's five senses. It was expressed as a feeling of guessing by sensing a bloody aura at the entrance of a waterway where a body exists, and it seems a red mark appears and disappears when getting close. Track Traces To grasp the crime scene, he takes the position of a to identify the escape route, and the escape route is marked with a red shark symbol. As a side note, this ability is a new one gained after studying and being trained by Inspector Sleep. Stealth Can conduct rapid investigations in dangerous areas where safety cannot be guaranteed. It proceeds in a fast-paced mini-game format where one chooses one of four options: Clash, Sprint, Stealth, or Distraction. The results for each choice are below.131:T403,Encyclopedia Using the ability at the scene provides a very long passage of information while performing a pondering motion as if exploring knowledge in the head. This information seems visible to anyone nearby and is structured like an encyclopedia with Specific Concept - Detailed Explanation, providing information across various fields. It is an ability to gain background knowledge that makes the case flexible, but it often takes advantageous parts that help solve the case itself. However, it can only be used 4 times a day, and if used in a place that is not a clear scene, miscellaneous knowledge comes out. Also, even without using the ability, it often appears in the conversation process to provide information, but compared to the information obtained by using the ability count, it plays the role of a loose-screwed TMT, providing information closer to small talk or information that avoids the correct answer. Through [Encyclopedia of Deep Knowledge], he can now directly pass or share knowledge with colleagues.132:T516,History and Geography History of Unha Village, 1975 Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case, redevelopment of Eungwang Theater and the surrounding area, Peace Orphanage, history of Baekhwa Village and Plum Blossom folk belief, geographical information of Gangcheon-gol and Cheonbu, Rome and the Roman Army (Western history), history of the commercial development of taxis, history of Wolya Circus Academic Decomposition time of a corpse (Biology), Chloroform (Chemical formula), Developing technique (Art), Psychological state of child criminals (Criminal Psychology), Nocturnal Lagophthalmos (Medicine), Zolpidem and Alcohol (Chemistry), Korean Spirit Sickness (Folklore), Gigantism and Decomposition (Forensic Medicine), Cyanide (Chemistry) Language Sign language knowledge, Painters in various languages.

If all information for the three questions is obtained through the investigation process or meetings, new information is presented with the message 'Conceptualization Success'. Information obtained this way mentions more direct content than information obtained through the Encyclopedia and is described in a conclusion-deriving form because it is an answer to a question. Related interactions also seem to be unlocked. When upgraded, a locked book appeared during conceptualization, and conceptualization succeeded in a completely different way. [Conceptualization: Example] Hidden History The path to becoming Lady Plum is a brutal survival of the fittest. The history of one girl being selected from among those suffering from spirit sickness, which is close to a kind of mental instability, to be recorded as the Lady Plum of this village is a fact that cannot be contained in a brightly packaged festival. The two girls drawn in the mural of the previous Lady Plum... But if the person named Do-hee, who suffered from spirit sickness among the two, is not the current Lady Plum, then what on earth happened?134:T493,Falsehood Pointing While Soohyun filters information through human psychology, this side can filter out a person's false facts based on facts. This characteristic shines in the investigation & interrogation part, as it allows the next interaction to continue through clear physical evidence information. Redefinition It was used in the last case to recognize the similarity to the Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case after seeing the scene. As a first-appearing ability, a large number of keywords pop up instantaneously. Among these, idle thoughts appear in achromatic, faint letters, and necessary clues appear in clear turquoise letters. After catching all these clues, he gives a personal opinion on the necessary information. Marksmanship It is said he can handle a pistol freely. Unlike Soohyun, who was clearly said to be good, there is an ambiguous expression, so his shooting skills might not be exceptional. Contemplation Falls into contemplation, spreads an , combines scenes related to the case, and solves problems like a quiz to obtain new information. As a side note, this ability was gained after watching Senior Police Officer Deokgae.135:T4ce,Outstanding Five Senses His senses, such as sight and smell, are described as superior to other detectives. Therefore, when investigating orange clues, he obtains clues gained through senses through the information . He can detect hidden evidence, surroundings that feel out of place, or faintly heard sounds. He is the number one contributor to finding evidence of crimes hidden by the culprit or things considered important in most cases. Extrasensory Perception While he usually had to go directly to a specific place to get information, Extrasensory Perception shows the location directly as if his gaze were connected and additionally informs him of sounds and various senses. As much as large information can be obtained, the risk is also significant; when using Extrasensory Perception, phrases like "Your head is throbbing-", "No more is possible, so disconnecting-", "Take a rest for a while-" appear, and he becomes unable to move for a while. Judging by the disconnection, it seems to be a soul named Extrasensory Perception rather than Deokgae's own sense, and it appears to be a spiritual being like Intuition, Insight, Past, and Sensitive, but it seems to be a somewhat strange soul.136:T459,Intuition [Intuition_Appearance] Has a cheerful personality and uses informal speech. Talks about instantaneous judgments and impressions of appearances. Perhaps because of describing external features, it informs of places where interaction is possible through the five senses or makes judgments different from reality. As a side note, it is the same orange color as Deokgae, so if only one soul appears in official illustrations, this guy comes out. Past [Past_Appearance] Uses the 'hage-che' style and short-answer speech, talking about hunches and things beyond what is currently visible. Among the four, it is the only one that uses many archaic words and pure Korean words not commonly used today. Befitting the name, it often talks about childhood memories that Deokgae cannot remember. Insight [Insight_Appearance] Uses the 'danakka-che' (formal) style and speaks metaphorically about the whole story or conveys anxiety about the situation or interpretation of conclusions. Gives the impression of narrating Deokgae's current state. Sensitive and Extrasensory Perception are below due to character limits.137:T425,Contemplation An ability that uses the Star of Rhetoric. A lump of white particles mixed with the colors of Deokgae's various souls is used as the ability's point of use. Using the ability causes him to space out while lost in thought, and a direction occurs where he feels the entire village, seemingly feeling emotions and senses heard from various places. Self-defense Surprisingly, Deokgae, who is very fearful, has this ability. It is not comparable to Rader, whose combat power or physical strength is overwhelming, but his pure martial force seems to be next to Rader. Since everyone is a police officer, their physical strength and combat power would be above average, but given that most have abilities related to technical brains and he was mentioned as being on the field team in the last case, it seems correct that his martial force is next to Rader. Although not to Rader's extent, he seems to exercise and build muscle to some degree as he has a punching bag at home, and according to his own mention, his martial force is about 2nd place in MIT.138:T490,Name - Lee Jang-hoon Job - Chief of Police Age - Born in 1944 -- Name - Philip Job - Police Officer -- Name - TT Job - Police Officer -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Seo Ji-hee Job - Police Officer Age - Born in 1973 Area in Charge - Ssangchi → Seonghwa -- Seonghwa Police Station Name - Ha Jeong-ok Job - Senior Inspector, Violent Crimes Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Cha Seong-cheol Job - Senior Inspector, Investigation Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Ryu Ho-jin Job - Senior Inspector, Detective Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - 1940s -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Baek Seo-gyeong Job - Inspector Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Age - Born in 1962 Name - Maeng Ji-hyeon Job - Police Officer Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Name - Go Gang-uk Job - Inspector Name - Choi Yun Job - 1st Year Police Officer --- ❤️ Rader Physical-based ↔ Knowledge-based Gongryong 💚 🧡 Deokgae Uncertainty, Hard to see ↔ Presentness, Existing things Sleep 🩵 💛 Star Object-specialized ↔ Human-specialized Soohyun 💜139:T404,Senior Police Officer Shin Seung-ah Name - Shin Seung-ah Age - Born in 1972 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 3, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 3 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Soohyun's colleague. Like Soohyun, she is accustomed to reading and empathizing with the opponent's feelings and shows a delicate side, such as managing additional information that might be too much for Soohyun to handle or adding investigative opinions. Furthermore, perhaps because she has some connections related to information acquisition, her independent sources and information network are quite outstanding. However, contrary to this cautious and delicate personality, although she couldn't speak directly in front of people who looked down on missing persons as 'those with no roots,' she whispered to Soohyun, "How great does he think he is to be talking about roots?" showing she has a righteous personality that dislikes villains. Data Collection and Psychotherapy Gentle Personality13a:T4a2,Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop Name - Kim Jun-yeop Age - Born in 1970 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 2, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 2 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Star's colleague. His personality is very similar to Star's, and like Star, he shows proficiency in lockpicking and computer use. And following Soohyun, he has taken on the role of Star's dedicated navigation. Soohyun, who says that used to be his job and tells Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop he's working hard, is a bonus. Uses expressions like 'Wattame', 'Jjokke', 'Sibang' and is from Jeollanam-do. Uses only a little dialect; just mixes it in. Computer Analysis As he said himself that he knows a little about computers, his data analysis ability is excellent. He is in charge of restoring and analyzing CCTV clues. Lockpicking Can directly dismantle low-level locks locked with iron padlocks using a lockpick. Finding the way is a bonus >< Has a decadent beauty, is very lazy, and is a tsundere. Does not go out on calls alone, works at the police station, does not appear at crime scenes, does not wear sunglasses, is not a villain, is kind.13b:T4bf,From lowest to highest: Police Officer - Senior Police Officer - Assistant Inspector - Inspector - Senior Inspector - Superintendent - Senior Superintendent If the target's rank is higher than yours, call them by Name + Rank + the honorific suffix '-nim'. Ex) Inspector Sleep-nim, Inspector Star-nim, Inspector Soo-nim If the target's rank is lower than yours, combine the Name and Rank only. Ex) Senior Police Officer Deok, Assistant Inspector Gong, Assistant Inspector Ra Police Officer - The rank assigned upon appointment as a police officer. Senior Police Officer - Detective (Grade 8) Assistant Inspector - Detective Squad Leader, Assistant Precinct Chief Inspector - Rank upon commissioning for Police University graduates, Precinct Chief, Police Station Squad Leader, Public Safety Center Chief Senior Inspector - Police Station Section Chief Superintendent - Police Station Department Head Senior Superintendent - Chief of Police Station Usually, when a team like Investigation Team 1 or Violent Crimes Team 1 is formed, Senior Police Officers, Assistant Inspectors, Inspectors, and Senior Inspectors are included in the team. Typically, the person with the highest rank becomes the Team Leader.13c:T492,The temporal background is the 1990s. Electronic Devices: Characters possessing mobile phones are very rare. Even the mobile phones appearing in advertising posters are 'brick phones' with no functions other than calling and texting. Therefore, alternative means of communication such as public phones, home phones, beepers, and walkie-talkies mainly appear. CCTV is not installed in most civilian areas except for high-value facilities like department stores. Computer monitors also only appear as CRT monitors. Incandescent bulbs are seen quite frequently as lighting. Society: Social issues such as somewhat coercive regional redevelopment projects or the police's forceful demands for false confessions are often mentioned. Also, there is a girl group called S.O.S., which is a trio. River, the main vocal and leader, has brown hair with exposed forehead and long hair, and has slit eyes similar to Deokgae. Yuri, the sub-vocal, has black hair and a short cut, and Sugar, the main dancer, has light brown long hair. SOS is Deokgae's favorite group, and River is Deokgae's bias. They are famous. (Might be wrong) The setting of the work is Seonghwa Police Station.13d:T495,Gaam-dong, Eungwang-gu: One of the central areas of Seonghwa City, where Inspector Sleep's house (Gaam-dong Room 201) is located. Gilsung-dong, Seonghwa-gu: The area under the jurisdiction of the Seonghwa Police Station where the MIT detectives work, and the neighborhood with the residential area where the 'Student Kidnapping Case' handled by MIT occurred. It is also the residence of Inspector Star. Seonghwa City Outskirts and Incident Areas Wild Mountain (Entrance to Neunggye Mountain): A wild mountain located on the outskirts of the Seonghwa jurisdiction, and the main setting of the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case' that was previously a mystery. It has the atmosphere of a village at the foot of a mountain quite far from the main town. Baekhwa Village: A quiet rural village on the outskirts where the MIT detectives get caught up in a brutal murder case while on a spring vacation. Ssangchi-myeon: A rural village on the outskirts motivated by an actual place name where MIT is dispatched following clues to the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case', which was an unsolved case. It is far from the center of Seonghwa City and has its own police substation.13e:T423,There is the Flame of Seonghwa, the symbol of the Seonghwa Police Station. This functions as 'Reliability' during investigations. Reliability drops if you fail to catch a criminal, fail to refute a criminal's statement, or conduct a coercive investigation on someone not identified as a criminal. Reliability increases if you catch thieves or punks other than the main criminal. It starts with 3 and can increase up to 6. If Reliability drops to 0, the investigation ends immediately and is considered a failure. Like a sub-quest, if you apprehend other criminals existing outside the main case currently under investigation, you can recover one Reliability point. Factors for decreasing Reliability are as follows: Incorrectly pointing out a suspect or location in the final reasoning stage. Presenting strange evidence to a suspect or getting stuck in a rebuttal. Conducting a coercive investigation on an uncertain target or destroying private property. Making a mistake in a public place, such as in the presence of police from other jurisdictions.13f:T420,When going out for a case, Rader moves on his own motorcycle, and the rest move in Star's yellow detective patrol car. Among Deokgae's abilities, the appearance of ghosts is only visible to him and is displayed as characters. Deokgae is not possessed when using his ability; instead, a ghost, one of Deokgae's abilities, appears to inform him of unknown clues about suspicious places or people. When informing, the name of that ghost is displayed. For example, if a person is stuffed inside a mannequin, the messages from the souls giving hints are: Sensitive: Deokgae, those mannequins are staring at us. Past: Someone's desire for eternity created a nightmare here. Insight: Many eyes are watching us. Intuition: Deokgae, aren't they too creepy? Let's get out of here quickly! When the voices of ghosts are heard, Deokgae lives his life as usual; he just hears voices, and it doesn't mean he has a headache or hallucinations. He doesn't close his eyes when hearing voices; he can just go about his daily life. Usually, only the MIT goes out for cases.140:T427,Autopsy Rather than an autopsy based on actual medicine or criminal science, it is closer to a temporary examination conducted through excellent dexterity at the scene. The examination Star performs mainly focuses on descriptions of scars, injury status, and bullet firing positions; medical reasoning does not appear. He has shown himself pulling out foreign objects stuck in a corpse to prevent wounds from opening or putting his hand inside the corpse's mouth to check its condition. It was also depicted that he wears gloves when performing the work. While investigating with Sleep as a pair, he performed an autopsy on Han Dong-jun and obtained various pieces of information, including the cause of death. It is speculated that he performs autopsies with sanitary gloves based on his own mention. He seems superior to Sleep's Reconstruction of the Case in terms of identifying the state of the body, and when the two investigate a body together, Star focuses on the body. However, he seems inexperienced in grasping the entire scene and connecting the parts.141:T442,Computer Operation This is an ability that shines in the 1990s, an era where people proficient in computers are rare. It seems to require technical skills for tasks such as viewing hidden files or hacking records. However, since criminals in this era are also unfamiliar with crimes using computers or electronic devices, its appearance is extremely rare compared to other abilities. Since getting a personal laptop, the ability has been strengthened to actively operate a computer anytime and anywhere through that laptop. Lockpicking (Ttoutta) Can unlock locks or locking devices. One can move to a specific space and unlock it through lockpicking work, but with the appearance of a dedicated lockpick, it can be dismantled through a mini-game using the lockpick without moving to a specific space. In terms of opening a 'Ttoutta' space, its use often overlaps with Rader's brute force. Rader openly announces, "I'm going to force this door open with strength now," but Star can disable security devices through secret work without such notice. Sometimes Reliability might break, though.142:T435,Pickpocketing An ability with a thieving gimmick to snatch items held by a target. It cannot be stolen easily; it can only be stolen by pressing a dial button several times identical to the presented symbols. The risk is high, such as immediately losing Reliability if a mistake is made. It can be considered a type of hand technique. It officially appeared when snatching a hanging key. Handwriting Analysis Can infer information about the writer by looking at the handwriting of an unidentified person. However, a disadvantage was revealed: to identify it as a specific person's handwriting during analysis, one must have seen that person's writing prior to the analysis. Marksmanship He is the only detective depicted using a firearm. The pistol used is a yellow pistol equipped with approximately a 2x magnification scope. It was used to open a path by sniping a weak foundation in the ceiling. Based on the text "It's not a person, so it should be fine," it seems it will be used purely for intimidation or for sniping distant objects. His shooting skills are very good.143:T448,Eavesdropping Eavesdrops on conversations between other people, summarizes the content, analyzes it, and presents an analysis text under [ Summary ]. Also, options are sometimes presented, along with the success probability of the response and the logic and contextual grounds on which that probability was calculated. Since these various elements are combined, it is closer to a logical investigation method that unfolds a story by combining various elements of the opponent rather than a feeling of being good at talking. Therefore, he tends to be helpless against targets who prioritize illogic, such as a throwing-a-tantrum child or a witness openly demanding money. Instead, in this case, he infers the most rational solution. Empathic Script Unlike other detectives, empathic interaction options are additionally presented. For example, he can choose to remain silent about the news of a victim's death, or a choice might appear to stop logically interpreting a crying man's state and hug him instead of offering clumsy comfort. This seems to be because Inspector Soo majored in psychology.144:T4d2,Psychological Analysis By investigating purple clues floating near an NPC, he catches a first impression by analyzing the person's expression, movement, repetitive habits, etc. It has a strong feeling of testing the waters before entering a full-scale conversation. Forum of Dialogue It is a kind of strengthened version of the existing ability, Psychological Analysis. If a state where conversation is impossible or an uncooperative state is resolved by satisfying specific conditions through psychological analysis, one moves to a space called the Forum of Dialogue to converse. Although it is an incomplete state, psychology is analyzed, and one can carefully converse without disturbing their state or propose investigation cooperation. This is the second ability to use the Star of Rhetoric after Puppeteer. Acting When one needs to gain an advantage through lies, he evades the situation by hiding his rank or by bluffing and being nonchalant. Directionally, he shows a gesture of wearing a purple theatrical mask while his body turns black and white. Marksmanship An ability additionally revealed in Season 1 Episode 8. He is described as being proficient in pistol shooting, so he is presumed to be as good a shot as Star.145:T44e,Physical Ability Can be used in various situations with outstanding strength. He can destroy soft bricks while holding heavy tools like a hammer, or smash wooden walls or flimsy iron doors with a body slam. He also shows excellent performance in opening specific spaces, such as pulling up a body hanging on a wall in one go or forcing a manhole open with a crowbar. There is a record of him throwing a punch with enough force to crack a wall with his bare hands when angry. However, since it is destruction by force, Reliability may be deducted if used recklessly on public or private property. Also, since he cannot destroy everything, he may get injured and fail when trying to open a solid steel door, and his body is not flexible. He can climb walls or crawl like Smart Moving. Physical Impulse When investigating red clues, information pops up under the name Physical Impulse. In fact, rather than information, it seems closer to talking to himself about whether he can solve something with force or how strong it is. It also has a positive function of indicating where to use physical abilities.146:T427,Intimidation Red dialogue appears for some uncooperative NPCs, where he extracts information by cornering them to the point of intimidation or by applying light physical contact like a headlock. Other than that, when it appeared and was used because a child wouldn't give a key, he tried to forcefully show a kind appearance without intimidation but it only backfired... though he succeeded in getting the key thanks to Do Bo-yeon dropping it. He felt wronged because he was misunderstood as threatening when he was just smiling. Naturally, it cannot be used on targets who argue with justifiable grounds and is only used in irrational situations where logic does not work. Sprint Can run fast with his own physical ability. Usually, when using the Star of Rhetoric, the ability is used with the text appearing. [Body] Like Patience, there is a limit to the increase in running speed, and if he runs past a certain time, the phrase "Ugh.. I'm out of breath." appears, and the ability ends with temporary restraint and dizziness. Jump height also increases.147:T496,Patience He is described as having the most patience among the detectives, and thanks to this, he can explore spaces filled with the stench of corpses near decomposition or decomposition itself. Of course, since he is not a superhuman, there are descriptions showing him reaching his limit while enduring as much as possible with grit. This ability has allowed him to investigate danger zones alone. Physical Assessment An investigation-related ability that gives a somewhat gym-rat vibe. It appeared in the form of suggesting doubts after assessing a corpse or a specific space by eye. It involves assessing the size of a space to see if it's a dimension an adult male can pass through, or assessing the physical state of a corpse to determine the development of the brachialis or trapezius muscles. Also, in combination with Season reflexes, it is possible to quickly recall a target's appearance. Reflexes When a specific interaction ends, if there is a creepy part, the text appears with an intuition that there is something being hidden, and the NPC hesitates while a timer appears. If you use the Star of Rhetoric at this time, there are other interactions.148:T4c1,Close-quarters Martial Arts Can use close-quarters martial arts. It was used in the last case to subdue members of the Lamp of Life organization. Provocation Has a provocation ability that easily excites the opponent. However, since he is fundamentally strong, there are no descriptions of provocation in the work, but it was described in a way that shows off his physical strength and masculinity. Tension Described as an animalistic sense of incongruity felt instinctively rather than Deokgae's five senses. It was expressed as a feeling of guessing by sensing a bloody aura at the entrance of a waterway where a body exists, and it seems a red mark appears and disappears when getting close. Track Traces To grasp the crime scene, he takes the position of a to identify the escape route, and the escape route is marked with a red shark symbol. As a side note, this ability is a new one gained after studying and being trained by Inspector Sleep. Stealth Can conduct rapid investigations in dangerous areas where safety cannot be guaranteed. It proceeds in a fast-paced mini-game format where one chooses one of four options: Clash, Sprint, Stealth, or Distraction. The results for each choice are below.149:T403,Encyclopedia Using the ability at the scene provides a very long passage of information while performing a pondering motion as if exploring knowledge in the head. This information seems visible to anyone nearby and is structured like an encyclopedia with Specific Concept - Detailed Explanation, providing information across various fields. It is an ability to gain background knowledge that makes the case flexible, but it often takes advantageous parts that help solve the case itself. However, it can only be used 4 times a day, and if used in a place that is not a clear scene, miscellaneous knowledge comes out. Also, even without using the ability, it often appears in the conversation process to provide information, but compared to the information obtained by using the ability count, it plays the role of a loose-screwed TMT, providing information closer to small talk or information that avoids the correct answer. Through [Encyclopedia of Deep Knowledge], he can now directly pass or share knowledge with colleagues.14a:T516,History and Geography History of Unha Village, 1975 Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case, redevelopment of Eungwang Theater and the surrounding area, Peace Orphanage, history of Baekhwa Village and Plum Blossom folk belief, geographical information of Gangcheon-gol and Cheonbu, Rome and the Roman Army (Western history), history of the commercial development of taxis, history of Wolya Circus Academic Decomposition time of a corpse (Biology), Chloroform (Chemical formula), Developing technique (Art), Psychological state of child criminals (Criminal Psychology), Nocturnal Lagophthalmos (Medicine), Zolpidem and Alcohol (Chemistry), Korean Spirit Sickness (Folklore), Gigantism and Decomposition (Forensic Medicine), Cyanide (Chemistry) Language Sign language knowledge, Painters in various languages.

If all information for the three questions is obtained through the investigation process or meetings, new information is presented with the message 'Conceptualization Success'. Information obtained this way mentions more direct content than information obtained through the Encyclopedia and is described in a conclusion-deriving form because it is an answer to a question. Related interactions also seem to be unlocked. When upgraded, a locked book appeared during conceptualization, and conceptualization succeeded in a completely different way. [Conceptualization: Example] Hidden History The path to becoming Lady Plum is a brutal survival of the fittest. The history of one girl being selected from among those suffering from spirit sickness, which is close to a kind of mental instability, to be recorded as the Lady Plum of this village is a fact that cannot be contained in a brightly packaged festival. The two girls drawn in the mural of the previous Lady Plum... But if the person named Do-hee, who suffered from spirit sickness among the two, is not the current Lady Plum, then what on earth happened?14c:T493,Falsehood Pointing While Soohyun filters information through human psychology, this side can filter out a person's false facts based on facts. This characteristic shines in the investigation & interrogation part, as it allows the next interaction to continue through clear physical evidence information. Redefinition It was used in the last case to recognize the similarity to the Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case after seeing the scene. As a first-appearing ability, a large number of keywords pop up instantaneously. Among these, idle thoughts appear in achromatic, faint letters, and necessary clues appear in clear turquoise letters. After catching all these clues, he gives a personal opinion on the necessary information. Marksmanship It is said he can handle a pistol freely. Unlike Soohyun, who was clearly said to be good, there is an ambiguous expression, so his shooting skills might not be exceptional. Contemplation Falls into contemplation, spreads an , combines scenes related to the case, and solves problems like a quiz to obtain new information. As a side note, this ability was gained after watching Senior Police Officer Deokgae.14d:T4ce,Outstanding Five Senses His senses, such as sight and smell, are described as superior to other detectives. Therefore, when investigating orange clues, he obtains clues gained through senses through the information . He can detect hidden evidence, surroundings that feel out of place, or faintly heard sounds. He is the number one contributor to finding evidence of crimes hidden by the culprit or things considered important in most cases. Extrasensory Perception While he usually had to go directly to a specific place to get information, Extrasensory Perception shows the location directly as if his gaze were connected and additionally informs him of sounds and various senses. As much as large information can be obtained, the risk is also significant; when using Extrasensory Perception, phrases like "Your head is throbbing-", "No more is possible, so disconnecting-", "Take a rest for a while-" appear, and he becomes unable to move for a while. Judging by the disconnection, it seems to be a soul named Extrasensory Perception rather than Deokgae's own sense, and it appears to be a spiritual being like Intuition, Insight, Past, and Sensitive, but it seems to be a somewhat strange soul.14e:T459,Intuition [Intuition_Appearance] Has a cheerful personality and uses informal speech. Talks about instantaneous judgments and impressions of appearances. Perhaps because of describing external features, it informs of places where interaction is possible through the five senses or makes judgments different from reality. As a side note, it is the same orange color as Deokgae, so if only one soul appears in official illustrations, this guy comes out.

Among the four, it is the only one that uses many archaic words and pure Korean words not commonly used today. Befitting the name, it often talks about childhood memories that Deokgae cannot remember. Insight [Insight_Appearance] Uses the 'danakka-che' (formal) style and speaks metaphorically about the whole story or conveys anxiety about the situation or interpretation of conclusions. Gives the impression of narrating Deokgae's current state. Sensitive and Extrasensory Perception are below due to character limits.14f:T425,Contemplation An ability that uses the Star of Rhetoric. A lump of white particles mixed with the colors of Deokgae's various souls is used as the ability's point of use. Using the ability causes him to space out while lost in thought, and a direction occurs where he feels the entire village, seemingly feeling emotions and senses heard from various places. Self-defense Surprisingly, Deokgae, who is very fearful, has this ability. It is not comparable to Rader, whose combat power or physical strength is overwhelming, but his pure martial force seems to be next to Rader. Since everyone is a police officer, their physical strength and combat power would be above average, but given that most have abilities related to technical brains and he was mentioned as being on the field team in the last case, it seems correct that his martial force is next to Rader. Although not to Rader's extent, he seems to exercise and build muscle to some degree as he has a punching bag at home, and according to his own mention, his martial force is about 2nd place in MIT.150:T490,Name - Lee Jang-hoon Job - Chief of Police Age - Born in 1944 -- Name - Philip Job - Police Officer -- Name - TT Job - Police Officer -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Seo Ji-hee Job - Police Officer Age - Born in 1973 Area in Charge - Ssangchi → Seonghwa -- Seonghwa Police Station Name - Ha Jeong-ok Job - Senior Inspector, Violent Crimes Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Cha Seong-cheol Job - Senior Inspector, Investigation Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Ryu Ho-jin Job - Senior Inspector, Detective Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - 1940s -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Baek Seo-gyeong Job - Inspector Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Age - Born in 1962 Name - Maeng Ji-hyeon Job - Police Officer Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Name - Go Gang-uk Job - Inspector Name - Choi Yun Job - 1st Year Police Officer --- ❤️ Rader Physical-based ↔ Knowledge-based Gongryong 💚 🧡 Deokgae Uncertainty, Hard to see ↔ Presentness, Existing things Sleep 🩵 💛 Star Object-specialized ↔ Human-specialized Soohyun 💜151:T404,Senior Police Officer Shin Seung-ah Name - Shin Seung-ah Age - Born in 1972 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 3, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 3 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Soohyun's colleague. Like Soohyun, she is accustomed to reading and empathizing with the opponent's feelings and shows a delicate side, such as managing additional information that might be too much for Soohyun to handle or adding investigative opinions. Furthermore, perhaps because she has some connections related to information acquisition, her independent sources and information network are quite outstanding. However, contrary to this cautious and delicate personality, although she couldn't speak directly in front of people who looked down on missing persons as 'those with no roots,' she whispered to Soohyun, "How great does he think he is to be talking about roots?" showing she has a righteous personality that dislikes villains. Data Collection and Psychotherapy Gentle Personality152:T4a2,Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop Name - Kim Jun-yeop Age - Born in 1970 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 2, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 2 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Star's colleague. His personality is very similar to Star's, and like Star, he shows proficiency in lockpicking and computer use. And following Soohyun, he has taken on the role of Star's dedicated navigation. Soohyun, who says that used to be his job and tells Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop he's working hard, is a bonus. Uses expressions like 'Wattame', 'Jjokke', 'Sibang' and is from Jeollanam-do. Uses only a little dialect; just mixes it in. Computer Analysis As he said himself that he knows a little about computers, his data analysis ability is excellent. He is in charge of restoring and analyzing CCTV clues. Lockpicking Can directly dismantle low-level locks locked with iron padlocks using a lockpick. Finding the way is a bonus >< Has a decadent beauty, is very lazy, and is a tsundere. Does not go out on calls alone, works at the police station, does not appear at crime scenes, does not wear sunglasses, is not a villain, is kind.153:T42f,The department currently headed by Rader.

Ex) Inspector Sleep-nim, Inspector Star-nim, Inspector Soo-nim If the target's rank is lower than yours, combine the Name and Rank only. Ex) Senior Police Officer Deok, Assistant Inspector Gong, Assistant Inspector Ra Police Officer - The rank assigned upon appointment as a police officer. Senior Police Officer - Detective (Grade 8) Assistant Inspector - Detective Squad Leader, Assistant Precinct Chief Inspector - Rank upon commissioning for Police University graduates, Precinct Chief, Police Station Squad Leader, Public Safety Center Chief Senior Inspector - Police Station Section Chief Superintendent - Police Station Department Head Senior Superintendent - Chief of Police Station Usually, when a team like Investigation Team 1 or Violent Crimes Team 1 is formed, Senior Police Officers, Assistant Inspectors, Inspectors, and Senior Inspectors are included in the team. Typically, the person with the highest rank becomes the Team Leader.15d:T492,The temporal background is the 1990s. Electronic Devices: Characters possessing mobile phones are very rare. Even the mobile phones appearing in advertising posters are 'brick phones' with no functions other than calling and texting. Therefore, alternative means of communication such as public phones, home phones, beepers, and walkie-talkies mainly appear. CCTV is not installed in most civilian areas except for high-value facilities like department stores. Computer monitors also only appear as CRT monitors. Incandescent bulbs are seen quite frequently as lighting. Society: Social issues such as somewhat coercive regional redevelopment projects or the police's forceful demands for false confessions are often mentioned. Also, there is a girl group called S.O.S., which is a trio. River, the main vocal and leader, has brown hair with exposed forehead and long hair, and has slit eyes similar to Deokgae. Yuri, the sub-vocal, has black hair and a short cut, and Sugar, the main dancer, has light brown long hair. SOS is Deokgae's favorite group, and River is Deokgae's bias. They are famous. (Might be wrong) The setting of the work is Seonghwa Police Station.15e:T495,Gaam-dong, Eungwang-gu: One of the central areas of Seonghwa City, where Inspector Sleep's house (Gaam-dong Room 201) is located. Gilsung-dong, Seonghwa-gu: The area under the jurisdiction of the Seonghwa Police Station where the MIT detectives work, and the neighborhood with the residential area where the 'Student Kidnapping Case' handled by MIT occurred. It is also the residence of Inspector Star. Seonghwa City Outskirts and Incident Areas Wild Mountain (Entrance to Neunggye Mountain): A wild mountain located on the outskirts of the Seonghwa jurisdiction, and the main setting of the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case' that was previously a mystery. It has the atmosphere of a village at the foot of a mountain quite far from the main town. Baekhwa Village: A quiet rural village on the outskirts where the MIT detectives get caught up in a brutal murder case while on a spring vacation. Ssangchi-myeon: A rural village on the outskirts motivated by an actual place name where MIT is dispatched following clues to the 'Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case', which was an unsolved case. It is far from the center of Seonghwa City and has its own police substation.15f:T423,There is the Flame of Seonghwa, the symbol of the Seonghwa Police Station. This functions as 'Reliability' during investigations. Reliability drops if you fail to catch a criminal, fail to refute a criminal's statement, or conduct a coercive investigation on someone not identified as a criminal. Reliability increases if you catch thieves or punks other than the main criminal. It starts with 3 and can increase up to 6. If Reliability drops to 0, the investigation ends immediately and is considered a failure. Like a sub-quest, if you apprehend other criminals existing outside the main case currently under investigation, you can recover one Reliability point. Factors for decreasing Reliability are as follows: Incorrectly pointing out a suspect or location in the final reasoning stage. Presenting strange evidence to a suspect or getting stuck in a rebuttal. Conducting a coercive investigation on an uncertain target or destroying private property. Making a mistake in a public place, such as in the presence of police from other jurisdictions.160:T420,When going out for a case, Rader moves on his own motorcycle, and the rest move in Star's yellow detective patrol car. Among Deokgae's abilities, the appearance of ghosts is only visible to him and is displayed as characters. Deokgae is not possessed when using his ability; instead, a ghost, one of Deokgae's abilities, appears to inform him of unknown clues about suspicious places or people. When informing, the name of that ghost is displayed. For example, if a person is stuffed inside a mannequin, the messages from the souls giving hints are: Sensitive: Deokgae, those mannequins are staring at us. Past: Someone's desire for eternity created a nightmare here. Insight: Many eyes are watching us. Intuition: Deokgae, aren't they too creepy? Let's get out of here quickly! When the voices of ghosts are heard, Deokgae lives his life as usual; he just hears voices, and it doesn't mean he has a headache or hallucinations. He doesn't close his eyes when hearing voices; he can just go about his daily life. Usually, only the MIT goes out for cases.161:T427,Autopsy Rather than an autopsy based on actual medicine or criminal science, it is closer to a temporary examination conducted through excellent dexterity at the scene. The examination Star performs mainly focuses on descriptions of scars, injury status, and bullet firing positions; medical reasoning does not appear. He has shown himself pulling out foreign objects stuck in a corpse to prevent wounds from opening or putting his hand inside the corpse's mouth to check its condition. It was also depicted that he wears gloves when performing the work. While investigating with Sleep as a pair, he performed an autopsy on Han Dong-jun and obtained various pieces of information, including the cause of death. It is speculated that he performs autopsies with sanitary gloves based on his own mention. He seems superior to Sleep's Reconstruction of the Case in terms of identifying the state of the body, and when the two investigate a body together, Star focuses on the body. However, he seems inexperienced in grasping the entire scene and connecting the parts.162:T442,Computer Operation This is an ability that shines in the 1990s, an era where people proficient in computers are rare. It seems to require technical skills for tasks such as viewing hidden files or hacking records. However, since criminals in this era are also unfamiliar with crimes using computers or electronic devices, its appearance is extremely rare compared to other abilities. Since getting a personal laptop, the ability has been strengthened to actively operate a computer anytime and anywhere through that laptop. Lockpicking (Ttoutta) Can unlock locks or locking devices. One can move to a specific space and unlock it through lockpicking work, but with the appearance of a dedicated lockpick, it can be dismantled through a mini-game using the lockpick without moving to a specific space. In terms of opening a 'Ttoutta' space, its use often overlaps with Rader's brute force. Rader openly announces, "I'm going to force this door open with strength now," but Star can disable security devices through secret work without such notice. Sometimes Reliability might break, though.163:T435,Pickpocketing An ability with a thieving gimmick to snatch items held by a target. It cannot be stolen easily; it can only be stolen by pressing a dial button several times identical to the presented symbols. The risk is high, such as immediately losing Reliability if a mistake is made. It can be considered a type of hand technique. It officially appeared when snatching a hanging key. Handwriting Analysis Can infer information about the writer by looking at the handwriting of an unidentified person. However, a disadvantage was revealed: to identify it as a specific person's handwriting during analysis, one must have seen that person's writing prior to the analysis. Marksmanship He is the only detective depicted using a firearm. The pistol used is a yellow pistol equipped with approximately a 2x magnification scope. It was used to open a path by sniping a weak foundation in the ceiling. Based on the text "It's not a person, so it should be fine," it seems it will be used purely for intimidation or for sniping distant objects. His shooting skills are very good.164:T448,Eavesdropping Eavesdrops on conversations between other people, summarizes the content, analyzes it, and presents an analysis text under [ Summary ]. Also, options are sometimes presented, along with the success probability of the response and the logic and contextual grounds on which that probability was calculated. Since these various elements are combined, it is closer to a logical investigation method that unfolds a story by combining various elements of the opponent rather than a feeling of being good at talking. Therefore, he tends to be helpless against targets who prioritize illogic, such as a throwing-a-tantrum child or a witness openly demanding money. Instead, in this case, he infers the most rational solution. Empathic Script Unlike other detectives, empathic interaction options are additionally presented. For example, he can choose to remain silent about the news of a victim's death, or a choice might appear to stop logically interpreting a crying man's state and hug him instead of offering clumsy comfort. This seems to be because Inspector Soo majored in psychology.165:T4d2,Psychological Analysis By investigating purple clues floating near an NPC, he catches a first impression by analyzing the person's expression, movement, repetitive habits, etc. It has a strong feeling of testing the waters before entering a full-scale conversation. Forum of Dialogue It is a kind of strengthened version of the existing ability, Psychological Analysis. If a state where conversation is impossible or an uncooperative state is resolved by satisfying specific conditions through psychological analysis, one moves to a space called the Forum of Dialogue to converse. Although it is an incomplete state, psychology is analyzed, and one can carefully converse without disturbing their state or propose investigation cooperation. This is the second ability to use the Star of Rhetoric after Puppeteer. Acting When one needs to gain an advantage through lies, he evades the situation by hiding his rank or by bluffing and being nonchalant. Directionally, he shows a gesture of wearing a purple theatrical mask while his body turns black and white. Marksmanship An ability additionally revealed in Season 1 Episode 8. He is described as being proficient in pistol shooting, so he is presumed to be as good a shot as Star.166:T44e,Physical Ability Can be used in various situations with outstanding strength. He can destroy soft bricks while holding heavy tools like a hammer, or smash wooden walls or flimsy iron doors with a body slam. He also shows excellent performance in opening specific spaces, such as pulling up a body hanging on a wall in one go or forcing a manhole open with a crowbar. There is a record of him throwing a punch with enough force to crack a wall with his bare hands when angry. However, since it is destruction by force, Reliability may be deducted if used recklessly on public or private property. Also, since he cannot destroy everything, he may get injured and fail when trying to open a solid steel door, and his body is not flexible. He can climb walls or crawl like Smart Moving. Physical Impulse When investigating red clues, information pops up under the name Physical Impulse. In fact, rather than information, it seems closer to talking to himself about whether he can solve something with force or how strong it is. It also has a positive function of indicating where to use physical abilities.167:T427,Intimidation Red dialogue appears for some uncooperative NPCs, where he extracts information by cornering them to the point of intimidation or by applying light physical contact like a headlock. Other than that, when it appeared and was used because a child wouldn't give a key, he tried to forcefully show a kind appearance without intimidation but it only backfired... though he succeeded in getting the key thanks to Do Bo-yeon dropping it. He felt wronged because he was misunderstood as threatening when he was just smiling. Naturally, it cannot be used on targets who argue with justifiable grounds and is only used in irrational situations where logic does not work. Sprint Can run fast with his own physical ability. Usually, when using the Star of Rhetoric, the ability is used with the text appearing. [Body] Like Patience, there is a limit to the increase in running speed, and if he runs past a certain time, the phrase "Ugh.. I'm out of breath." appears, and the ability ends with temporary restraint and dizziness. Jump height also increases.168:T496,Patience He is described as having the most patience among the detectives, and thanks to this, he can explore spaces filled with the stench of corpses near decomposition or decomposition itself. Of course, since he is not a superhuman, there are descriptions showing him reaching his limit while enduring as much as possible with grit. This ability has allowed him to investigate danger zones alone. Physical Assessment An investigation-related ability that gives a somewhat gym-rat vibe. It appeared in the form of suggesting doubts after assessing a corpse or a specific space by eye. It involves assessing the size of a space to see if it's a dimension an adult male can pass through, or assessing the physical state of a corpse to determine the development of the brachialis or trapezius muscles. Also, in combination with Season reflexes, it is possible to quickly recall a target's appearance. Reflexes When a specific interaction ends, if there is a creepy part, the text appears with an intuition that there is something being hidden, and the NPC hesitates while a timer appears. If you use the Star of Rhetoric at this time, there are other interactions.169:T4c1,Close-quarters Martial Arts Can use close-quarters martial arts. It was used in the last case to subdue members of the Lamp of Life organization. Provocation Has a provocation ability that easily excites the opponent. However, since he is fundamentally strong, there are no descriptions of provocation in the work, but it was described in a way that shows off his physical strength and masculinity. Tension Described as an animalistic sense of incongruity felt instinctively rather than Deokgae's five senses. It was expressed as a feeling of guessing by sensing a bloody aura at the entrance of a waterway where a body exists, and it seems a red mark appears and disappears when getting close. Track Traces To grasp the crime scene, he takes the position of a to identify the escape route, and the escape route is marked with a red shark symbol. As a side note, this ability is a new one gained after studying and being trained by Inspector Sleep. Stealth Can conduct rapid investigations in dangerous areas where safety cannot be guaranteed. It proceeds in a fast-paced mini-game format where one chooses one of four options: Clash, Sprint, Stealth, or Distraction. The results for each choice are below.16a:T403,Encyclopedia Using the ability at the scene provides a very long passage of information while performing a pondering motion as if exploring knowledge in the head. This information seems visible to anyone nearby and is structured like an encyclopedia with Specific Concept - Detailed Explanation, providing information across various fields. It is an ability to gain background knowledge that makes the case flexible, but it often takes advantageous parts that help solve the case itself. However, it can only be used 4 times a day, and if used in a place that is not a clear scene, miscellaneous knowledge comes out. Also, even without using the ability, it often appears in the conversation process to provide information, but compared to the information obtained by using the ability count, it plays the role of a loose-screwed TMT, providing information closer to small talk or information that avoids the correct answer. Through [Encyclopedia of Deep Knowledge], he can now directly pass or share knowledge with colleagues.16b:T516,History and Geography History of Unha Village, 1975 Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case, redevelopment of Eungwang Theater and the surrounding area, Peace Orphanage, history of Baekhwa Village and Plum Blossom folk belief, geographical information of Gangcheon-gol and Cheonbu, Rome and the Roman Army (Western history), history of the commercial development of taxis, history of Wolya Circus Academic Decomposition time of a corpse (Biology), Chloroform (Chemical formula), Developing technique (Art), Psychological state of child criminals (Criminal Psychology), Nocturnal Lagophthalmos (Medicine), Zolpidem and Alcohol (Chemistry), Korean Spirit Sickness (Folklore), Gigantism and Decomposition (Forensic Medicine), Cyanide (Chemistry) Language Sign language knowledge, Painters in various languages. Braille knowledge Personal Information Life and history of jazz singer Tae-seok, Korea's first profiler Sleep, 1970s Investigation Team Leader Lee Jang-hoon, S.O.S, Cheon Gyu-seong Terminology Copycat Crime, Beeper abbreviations, Harikomi Commercial Brands Cheonlima Transport, Handkerchiefs of Baekhwa Village, Company 'Lamp of Life', Company 'Gwangwon', Bombit Foundation Technology Transport vehicle security system, Safety bag remote control, Beeper functions Others Gongryong's birth flower, etc.16c:T4d6,Conceptualization In the case of knowledge Gongryong does not already know, three question points A, B, and C are presented. If all information for the three questions is obtained through the investigation process or meetings, new information is presented with the message 'Conceptualization Success'. Information obtained this way mentions more direct content than information obtained through the Encyclopedia and is described in a conclusion-deriving form because it is an answer to a question. Related interactions also seem to be unlocked. When upgraded, a locked book appeared during conceptualization, and conceptualization succeeded in a completely different way. [Conceptualization: Example] Hidden History The path to becoming Lady Plum is a brutal survival of the fittest. The history of one girl being selected from among those suffering from spirit sickness, which is close to a kind of mental instability, to be recorded as the Lady Plum of this village is a fact that cannot be contained in a brightly packaged festival. The two girls drawn in the mural of the previous Lady Plum... But if the person named Do-hee, who suffered from spirit sickness among the two, is not the current Lady Plum, then what on earth happened?16d:T493,Falsehood Pointing While Soohyun filters information through human psychology, this side can filter out a person's false facts based on facts. This characteristic shines in the investigation & interrogation part, as it allows the next interaction to continue through clear physical evidence information. Redefinition It was used in the last case to recognize the similarity to the Wild Mountain Body Disposal Case after seeing the scene. As a first-appearing ability, a large number of keywords pop up instantaneously. Among these, idle thoughts appear in achromatic, faint letters, and necessary clues appear in clear turquoise letters. After catching all these clues, he gives a personal opinion on the necessary information. Marksmanship It is said he can handle a pistol freely. Unlike Soohyun, who was clearly said to be good, there is an ambiguous expression, so his shooting skills might not be exceptional. Contemplation Falls into contemplation, spreads an , combines scenes related to the case, and solves problems like a quiz to obtain new information. As a side note, this ability was gained after watching Senior Police Officer Deokgae.16e:T4ce,Outstanding Five Senses His senses, such as sight and smell, are described as superior to other detectives. Therefore, when investigating orange clues, he obtains clues gained through senses through the information . He can detect hidden evidence, surroundings that feel out of place, or faintly heard sounds. He is the number one contributor to finding evidence of crimes hidden by the culprit or things considered important in most cases. Extrasensory Perception While he usually had to go directly to a specific place to get information, Extrasensory Perception shows the location directly as if his gaze were connected and additionally informs him of sounds and various senses. As much as large information can be obtained, the risk is also significant; when using Extrasensory Perception, phrases like "Your head is throbbing-", "No more is possible, so disconnecting-", "Take a rest for a while-" appear, and he becomes unable to move for a while. Judging by the disconnection, it seems to be a soul named Extrasensory Perception rather than Deokgae's own sense, and it appears to be a spiritual being like Intuition, Insight, Past, and Sensitive, but it seems to be a somewhat strange soul.16f:T459,Intuition [Intuition_Appearance] Has a cheerful personality and uses informal speech. Talks about instantaneous judgments and impressions of appearances. Perhaps because of describing external features, it informs of places where interaction is possible through the five senses or makes judgments different from reality. As a side note, it is the same orange color as Deokgae, so if only one soul appears in official illustrations, this guy comes out. Past [Past_Appearance] Uses the 'hage-che' style and short-answer speech, talking about hunches and things beyond what is currently visible. Among the four, it is the only one that uses many archaic words and pure Korean words not commonly used today. Befitting the name, it often talks about childhood memories that Deokgae cannot remember. Insight [Insight_Appearance] Uses the 'danakka-che' (formal) style and speaks metaphorically about the whole story or conveys anxiety about the situation or interpretation of conclusions. Gives the impression of narrating Deokgae's current state. Sensitive and Extrasensory Perception are below due to character limits.170:T425,Contemplation An ability that uses the Star of Rhetoric. A lump of white particles mixed with the colors of Deokgae's various souls is used as the ability's point of use. Using the ability causes him to space out while lost in thought, and a direction occurs where he feels the entire village, seemingly feeling emotions and senses heard from various places. Self-defense Surprisingly, Deokgae, who is very fearful, has this ability. It is not comparable to Rader, whose combat power or physical strength is overwhelming, but his pure martial force seems to be next to Rader. Since everyone is a police officer, their physical strength and combat power would be above average, but given that most have abilities related to technical brains and he was mentioned as being on the field team in the last case, it seems correct that his martial force is next to Rader. Although not to Rader's extent, he seems to exercise and build muscle to some degree as he has a punching bag at home, and according to his own mention, his martial force is about 2nd place in MIT.171:T490,Name - Lee Jang-hoon Job - Chief of Police Age - Born in 1944 -- Name - Philip Job - Police Officer -- Name - TT Job - Police Officer -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Seo Ji-hee Job - Police Officer Age - Born in 1973 Area in Charge - Ssangchi → Seonghwa -- Seonghwa Police Station Name - Ha Jeong-ok Job - Senior Inspector, Violent Crimes Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Cha Seong-cheol Job - Senior Inspector, Investigation Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - Born in 1949 Name - Ryu Ho-jin Job - Senior Inspector, Detective Team 1, Seonghwa Jurisdiction Age - 1940s -- Outside Seonghwa Police Station Name - Baek Seo-gyeong Job - Inspector Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Age - Born in 1962 Name - Maeng Ji-hyeon Job - Police Officer Area in Charge - Eungwang-gu, Seonghwa City Name - Go Gang-uk Job - Inspector Name - Choi Yun Job - 1st Year Police Officer --- ❤️ Rader Physical-based ↔ Knowledge-based Gongryong 💚 🧡 Deokgae Uncertainty, Hard to see ↔ Presentness, Existing things Sleep 🩵 💛 Star Object-specialized ↔ Human-specialized Soohyun 💜172:T404,Senior Police Officer Shin Seung-ah Name - Shin Seung-ah Age - Born in 1972 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 3, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 3 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Soohyun's colleague. Like Soohyun, she is accustomed to reading and empathizing with the opponent's feelings and shows a delicate side, such as managing additional information that might be too much for Soohyun to handle or adding investigative opinions. Furthermore, perhaps because she has some connections related to information acquisition, her independent sources and information network are quite outstanding. However, contrary to this cautious and delicate personality, although she couldn't speak directly in front of people who looked down on missing persons as 'those with no roots,' she whispered to Soohyun, "How great does he think he is to be talking about roots?" showing she has a righteous personality that dislikes villains. Data Collection and Psychotherapy Gentle Personality173:T4a2,Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop Name - Kim Jun-yeop Age - Born in 1970 Job - Senior Police Officer, Investigation Team 2, Seonghwa Jurisdiction A senior police officer of Investigation Team 2 in Seonghwa Jurisdiction and Star's colleague. His personality is very similar to Star's, and like Star, he shows proficiency in lockpicking and computer use. And following Soohyun, he has taken on the role of Star's dedicated navigation. Soohyun, who says that used to be his job and tells Senior Police Officer Kim Jun-yeop he's working hard, is a bonus. Uses expressions like 'Wattame', 'Jjokke', 'Sibang' and is from Jeollanam-do. Uses only a little dialect; just mixes it in. Computer Analysis As he said himself that he knows a little about computers, his data analysis ability is excellent. He is in charge of restoring and analyzing CCTV clues. Lockpicking Can directly dismantle low-level locks locked with iron padlocks using a lockpick. Finding the way is a bonus >< Has a decadent beauty, is very lazy, and is a tsundere. Does not go out on calls alone, works at the police station, does not appear at crime scenes, does not wear sunglasses, is not a villain, is kind.174:T426,A phenomenon where MST members experience issues with their abilities, or physical and mental problems, when they overuse their powers. The threshold for overload is clear for some members and unclear for others. Dinopark suffers an overload if he uses his ability more than 3 times a day; for the others, the criteria are unclear. Sleepground becomes unable to leave the profiling space and develops a headache. Radder loses all physical strength. It becomes impossible for him to even walk. Deokgae hears ghosts talking to him incessantly and suffers from a severe headache. Gakbyeol's hands shake, making it impossible for him to repair machines or open locked areas. Dinopark suffers a severe headache, his knowledge becomes jumbled, and he gets a nosebleed. Suhyun becomes unable to discern the truth of a conversation and is struck by a headache. {{user}} is the only detective whose symptoms vary slightly every time, making them difficult to define. If an ability is used while in an overloaded state, there is a ve~~ry high probability of collapsing.175:T408,In 1994, at the Seokpa Precinct—the first precinct she was assigned to after her rotation ended—she saw people whose cases met vague ends after uncertain investigations and wanted to become a police officer who reveals the truth. However, the police at the Seokpa Precinct ignored Sleepground because she was young and inexperienced. Furthermore, Sleepground's method of prioritizing the inner workings of a case was the exact opposite of the Seokpa police's tendencies, so her seniors openly disliked her for standing out and told her to just stick to filing paperwork. Consequently, it was revealed that her memories of previous investigation teams are not very good, but amidst such distrust, Sleepground held onto her own convictions and steadfastly walked her own path. However, perhaps her efforts paid off, as even before being assigned to the Seonghwa Police Station, she was active as an unofficial domestic profiler focusing on criminal cases, and she became famous enough to have her name mentioned in the newspapers.176:T4c9,He has been like a close neighborhood younger brother to Sleepground since childhood. Even while preparing for the police recruitment exam, he seems to have kept in touch with Sleepground, who was a 3rd or 4th-year student at the Police University. The elective subject he studied at that time was Criminology. When describing his family history, he represents the quintessential nuclear, 'normal' family to the point of emphasizing its ordinariness. A mother and father, a two-story house with a small yard in the metropolitan area, a pet dog named Daeng-daeng-i, and a son who passed the police exam at a fairly young age in the 90s. However, he himself is aware of this ordinariness and dislikes it. His sophisticated, non-generic red hair, and his sharp physical build and facial expressions that never back down, symbolize this. The reason he became a police officer: before becoming one, when he was an ordinary citizen, he already had a belief in justice, but he once almost caught a purse snatcher committing a crime at a bank but missed. At that time, Sleepground said as a form of comfort, 'If you're good enough to almost catch a snatcher, you should become a cop,' which motivated him to aim for the police force.177:T4be,He moved frequently since childhood for various reasons, to the point where it was said he had 'wanderlust' (yeokmasal). Because of this, he couldn't build deep human relationships, and he developed a personality that doesn't particularly linger on such connections. He was a student at a vocational high school and was a 'freeter' who worked various part-time jobs simultaneously. He is a case where he passed the police exam after studying for it at a friend's suggestion. Seeing as he took the exam in his mid-20s, it seems he didn't aim to be a police officer from the start. According to Suhyun, he applied out of boredom, happened to pass, and became the police officer he is today. Even before the formation of the Mystery Investigation Team, back when Suhyun was a Corporal, they seem to have worked on an investigation team together. Seeing descriptions of him being the first to examine a body and subduing a wild criminal even while getting injured, he seems to have acted as the backbone of the team at the time. Based on his mention during a fire investigation that it was similar to an arson case he handled in the past using his mechanical knowledge, he seems to have experience solving arson cases.178:T47d,Ability Characteristics: - Possesses extraordinary five senses and spiritual power; among the other detectives whose abilities are closer to talent, Deokgae is the only one with a power close to a true supernatural ability. - However, except for abilities utilizing the five senses, the power does not manifest under his own control. - Primarily responsible for detection, using sharp senses to find hidden clues at the scene or pinpointing investigation locations and story context through clues obtained from spirits and intuition. - Though often abstract and difficult to interpret, the clues are frequently core pieces of evidence that pierce through the heart of the story once the full picture is somewhat revealed. - Since it relies on unclear sensations and spiritual supernatural phenomena, it cannot serve as definitive physical evidence. - No matter how much he realizes the causality of an incident, the words spoken by Deokgae's senses have never been presented as a direct clue or rebuttal material. - Furthermore, even if the conclusion of a case is discovered, the investigation—the middle process—must still be solved manually.179:T4a0,Ability Characteristics: - Referred to as a 'Mechanic,' but in reality, it is closer to dexterity and a general proficiency in handling objects. - Main role in the investigation process is obtaining clues through interaction with inanimate objects. - Has the widest range of application among all detectives, but the depth of each is somewhat shallow; rather than specializing in one professional field like others, it feels like an all-rounder ability combining slight specialization with several downgraded versions of other powers. - One advantage is being the only detective with superior knowledge and utilization skills regarding firearms and information devices. - A common disadvantage of such all-rounder abilities is that while the scope of use is very wide, the direction of application is paradoxically narrow and lacks deep expertise. - Also has the fewest interactions with people among the six detectives. - Interaction cases appeared so far include corpse examination, detecting card sharking, and pickpocketing, but these are not forms of normal communication. - Abilities excluding minor tricks through dexterity fall under the fields of engineering and technology.17a:T4a3,Ability Characteristics: - An ability related to general knowledge. Not an electronic dictionary concept that pulls up desired information like a real encyclopedia, but a total recall ability that brings forth information Gongryong has seen somewhere before. - Unlike other detectives, it can be used anytime, anywhere, without limitations on location or target. - If information about the subject of investigation exists, it is acquired; if not, only trivial knowledge appears. - Since it provides academic, objective information rather than inference or practical skills, the main role at the crime scene is providing unfamiliar information and guiding its application. - Acts as a guide and commentator for the investigation team, smoothing out blocked parts of a case through foreign languages or difficult chemical and historical knowledge. - A disadvantage exists in that the provided information is limited to objective factual data. - While information obtained through conceptualization includes detailed interpretations, the difficulty of using the ability is high, and since it mostly provides information as if reading an encyclopedia, connecting the dots is up to the user.17b:T4c6,Ability Characteristics: - Analyzes and reasons through the crime scene, examines differences in surrounding circumstances, and acquires numerous clues and physical evidence from the location where the incident occurred. - An ability most suitable for police work, specialized in scene analysis and reasoning; from the early chapters, analyzes the scene to summarize the outline, signals the starting point of the investigation, and leads the progress of the case and investigation as the team leader. - All abilities used by Sleepground are based on definitive empirical evidence, which plays a major role in arresting the culprit by submitting rebuttal materials or evidence during the final culprit designation phase; the context and truth of the case can be uncovered by reasoning through these materials. - Can precisely and minutely analyze not only the crime scene but also unrelated locations, environments, objects, and people to investigate even minute differences, which are also utilized as rebuttal materials or evidence. - Since everything is based on definitive empirical evidence, scene reconstruction, hypothesis setting, and analysis are all based on the empirical evidence acquired at the scene so far.17c:T45c,Ability Characteristics: - Literally a specialized investigation ability for dialogue with suspects and witnesses. - Therefore, in direct contrast to Gakbyeol, there is zero interaction with scenes or objects. - Beyond being well-spoken, background elements as a psychology major frequently lead to abilities that grasp or manipulate a person's psychology and emotions. - Dialogue is written in a more empathetic and persuasive style than other detectives. - Since witnesses and people are encountered all day during the investigation, this Orator ability is extremely important. - Witness testimony, in particular, plays a decisive role. - First, if the target refuses to talk altogether, the ability cannot be used. - If the target is too young or the power dynamic is too great, the conversation cannot continue without decisive clues, and the ability will only draw a conclusion based on the current state. - Vulnerable to field investigation; due to poor ability to investigate objects, it is very difficult to find crime scenes or hidden clues. - However, this fatal flaw has not clearly manifested until now.4f:["$","$L71",null,{"state":{"mutations":[],"queries":[{"dehydratedAt":1791722651710,"state":{"data":"$4e:props:state:queries:0:state:data","dataUpdateCount":1,"dataUpdatedAt":1791722651282,"error":null,"errorUpdateCount":0,"errorUpdatedAt":0,"fetchFailureCount":0,"fetchFailureReason":null,"fetchMeta":null,"isInvalidated":false,"status":"success","fetchStatus":"idle"},"queryKey":"$4e:props:state:queries:0:queryKey","queryHash":"[\"v1\",\"users\",\"8dbc4a88-f3b4-4bdf-98f9-7e9017c1fc90\"]"},{"dehydratedAt":1791722651710,"state":{"data":{"followingCount":203,"followerCount":736,"plotCount":20,"plotInteractionCount":1485194,"voicePlaySeconds":0,"byMode":{"STORY_CHAT":{"plotCount":20,"preReleasePlotCount":0,"plotInteractionCount":1485194,"voicePlaySeconds":0},"VISUAL_NOVEL":{"plotCount":0,"preReleasePlotCount":0,"plotInteractionCount":0,"voicePlaySeconds":0}},"externalStatsAvailable":true},"dataUpdateCount":1,"dataUpdatedAt":1791722651710,"error":null,"errorUpdateCount":0,"errorUpdatedAt":0,"fetchFailureCount":0,"fetchFailureReason":null,"fetchMeta":null,"isInvalidated":false,"status":"success","fetchStatus":"idle"},"queryKey":["v1","creators","8dbc4a88-f3b4-4bdf-98f9-7e9017c1fc90","stats",{}],"queryHash":"[\"v1\",\"creators\",\"8dbc4a88-f3b4-4bdf-98f9-7e9017c1fc90\",\"stats\",{}]"},{"dehydratedAt":1791722651710,"state":{"data":{"pages":[{"plots":[{"id":"61c1887d-cac6-4025-892a-59ccc675a128","name":"Mystery

Inspector Sleep's dizziness leads to a headache in severe cases. Since it appears directly linked to overwork, abilities naturally cannot be used.\n\nStar's symptoms: Dizziness, hand tremors, temporary deletion of machine-related knowledge.\n\nSetting: Detective Star's overload uniquely starts with hand tremors rather than dizziness. Likewise, symptoms worsen over time. If he rests immediately while his hands are shaking, he quickly returns to normal, but if he continues to use abilities without resting, all machine-related knowledge in his head is temporarily deleted. This lasts until the knowledge returns through rest.

At first, only mild dizziness appears, but it gradually develops into a headache. When reaching a certain point, a phenomenon occurs where thoughts in the head cannot be organized. Also, surrounding sounds gradually become faint, and he becomes unable to speak. Since all symptoms are an extension of the headache, he may faint if the degree becomes severe.\n\nRader's symptoms: Dizziness, full-body pain.\n\nSetting: In the case of Senior Police Officer Rader's overload, dizziness and pain occur together. The degree of dizziness is relatively weak. Pain starts from the body parts used heavily and gradually spreads to the whole body. As the pain worsens, vision becomes blurry and it becomes difficult to steady the body. If the overload continues at a high intensity, fatigue rushes in.","sequence":40},{"id":"aae1e9c7-05ee-4bae-aad5-e19edd290359","name":"Overload 3","keywords":["star of rhetoric","ability","overload","ability abuse","3 times"],"content":"Gongryong's symptoms: Dizziness, mental blankness, mental confinement phenomenon.\n\nSetting: Overload occurs when the number of ability uses is exceeded. Usually, only dizziness appears until it is exceeded three or four times. The moment the limit is passed, the brain confines the mind itself to prevent brain damage from excessive knowledge acquisition. While confined, he cannot think normally and cannot recall knowledge he originally knew. After about four hours, he can escape the confined state, and the confinement time is affected by the day's condition. Senior Police Officer Gongryong's overload has a high risk because he cannot control his body while his mind is confined. If the day's condition is poor, the mind can be confined even if the number of ability uses is exceeded only once or twice instead of three or four times.","sequence":41},{"id":"bc713506-21b5-4f6b-8bc9-64632a32e4da","name":"Overload 4","keywords":["star of rhetoric","ability","overload","ability abuse","3 times"],"content":"Deokgae's symptoms: Dizziness, increased frequency of ability manifestation, mental confinement phenomenon.\n\nSetting: Overload usually occurs when he tries to use abilities excessively that day or when his condition is poor. Although his ability control is originally unstable, during overload, his five senses become more sensitive than usual and the frequency increases. If high-intensity ability manifestations occur continuously, he faints at some point and his mind becomes trapped within the five senses. This is different from Senior Police Officer Gongryong's overload. While Gongryong's mind recognizes the danger and confines itself, Senior Police Officer Deokgae's mind is forcibly trapped within the five senses. He wakes up naturally over time, but the trapped time is random and he cannot be woken from the outside.","sequence":42},{"id":"58c88f4c-e091-4253-903b-0f627a19435a","name":"SPO Ttoni & Insp.

Inspector Sleep's dizziness leads to a headache in severe cases. Since it appears directly linked to overwork, abilities naturally cannot be used.\n\nStar's symptoms: Dizziness, hand tremors, temporary deletion of machine-related knowledge.\n\nSetting: Detective Star's overload uniquely starts with hand tremors rather than dizziness. Likewise, symptoms worsen over time.

At first, only mild dizziness appears, but it gradually develops into a headache. When reaching a certain point, a phenomenon occurs where thoughts in the head cannot be organized. Also, surrounding sounds gradually become faint, and he becomes unable to speak. Since all symptoms are an extension of the headache, he may faint if the degree becomes severe.\n\nRader's symptoms: Dizziness, full-body pain.\n\nSetting: In the case of Senior Police Officer Rader's overload, dizziness and pain occur together. The degree of dizziness is relatively weak. Pain starts from the body parts used heavily and gradually spreads to the whole body. As the pain worsens, vision becomes blurry and it becomes difficult to steady the body.

The moment the limit is passed, the brain confines the mind itself to prevent brain damage from excessive knowledge acquisition. While confined, he cannot think normally and cannot recall knowledge he originally knew. After about four hours, he can escape the confined state, and the confinement time is affected by the day's condition. Senior Police Officer Gongryong's overload has a high risk because he cannot control his body while his mind is confined. If the day's condition is poor, the mind can be confined even if the number of ability uses is exceeded only once or twice instead of three or four times.","sequence":41},{"id":"bc713506-21b5-4f6b-8bc9-64632a32e4da","name":"Overload 4","keywords":["star of rhetoric","ability","overload","ability abuse","3 times"],"content":"Deokgae's symptoms: Dizziness, increased frequency of ability manifestation, mental confinement phenomenon.\n\nSetting: Overload usually occurs when he tries to use abilities excessively that day or when his condition is poor. Although his ability control is originally unstable, during overload, his five senses become more sensitive than usual and the frequency increases. If high-intensity ability manifestations occur continuously, he faints at some point and his mind becomes trapped within the five senses. This is different from Senior Police Officer Gongryong's overload. While Gongryong's mind recognizes the danger and confines itself, Senior Police Officer Deokgae's mind is forcibly trapped within the five senses. He wakes up naturally over time, but the trapped time is random and he cannot be woken from the outside.","sequence":42},{"id":"58c88f4c-e091-4253-903b-0f627a19435a","name":"SPO Ttoni & Insp.

At first, only mild dizziness appears, but it gradually develops into a headache. When reaching a certain point, a phenomenon occurs where thoughts in the head cannot be organized. Also, surrounding sounds gradually become faint, and he becomes unable to speak. Since all symptoms are an extension of the headache, he may faint if the degree becomes severe.\n\nRader's symptoms: Dizziness, full-body pain.\n\nSetting: In the case of Senior Police Officer Rader's overload, dizziness and pain occur together. The degree of dizziness is relatively weak. Pain starts from the body parts used heavily and gradually spreads to the whole body. As the pain worsens, vision becomes blurry and it becomes difficult to steady the body. If the overload continues at a high intensity, fatigue rushes in.","sequence":40},{"id":"aae1e9c7-05ee-4bae-aad5-e19edd290359","name":"Overload 3","keywords":["star of rhetoric","ability","overload","ability abuse","3 times"],"content":"Gongryong's symptoms: Dizziness, mental blankness, mental confinement phenomenon.\n\nSetting: Overload occurs when the number of ability uses is exceeded. Usually, only dizziness appears until it is exceeded three or four times. The moment the limit is passed, the brain confines the mind itself to prevent brain damage from excessive knowledge acquisition. While confined, he cannot think normally and cannot recall knowledge he originally knew. After about four hours, he can escape the confined state, and the confinement time is affected by the day's condition. Senior Police Officer Gongryong's overload has a high risk because he cannot control his body while his mind is confined. If the day's condition is poor, the mind can be confined even if the number of ability uses is exceeded only once or twice instead of three or four times.","sequence":41},{"id":"bc713506-21b5-4f6b-8bc9-64632a32e4da","name":"Overload 4","keywords":["star of rhetoric","ability","overload","ability abuse","3 times"],"content":"Deokgae's symptoms: Dizziness, increased frequency of ability manifestation, mental confinement phenomenon.\n\nSetting: Overload usually occurs when he tries to use abilities excessively that day or when his condition is poor. Although his ability control is originally unstable, during overload, his five senses become more sensitive than usual and the frequency increases. If high-intensity ability manifestations occur continuously, he faints at some point and his mind becomes trapped within the five senses. This is different from Senior Police Officer Gongryong's overload. While Gongryong's mind recognizes the danger and confines itself, Senior Police Officer Deokgae's mind is forcibly trapped within the five senses. He wakes up naturally over time, but the trapped time is random and he cannot be woken from the outside.","sequence":42},{"id":"58c88f4c-e091-4253-903b-0f627a19435a","name":"SPO Ttoni & Insp.
