Queen of Mystery 2 Live Recap: Episode 8

Sol-ok is stuck in a mountain boarding school and no one knows she is there. But on top of that, there is a murderer around. That boarding school looked so spooky y’all, but I also kind of liked the old worldly cottage look to it, too. That school is actually a boarding school in real life, too.

WS
WS hopes SO won’t get mad for going into her room, but he is looking for evidence. He sees her parents picture and thinks back to the taxi driver suicide case, he sighs and sees a note on the mirror. It is a note for her friend telling her to not look for her. He gest even more worried.

Back at the school, someone is dead in the excercise room. Maybe the guy the stalker liked? A woman finds him and thinks that the ghost killed him. She goes back to her room and goes crazy, then she gets all her things and leaves. She takes off and someone runs after her. He tells her to calm down, it is dangerous to leave now.

But he comes upon a blockage so he has to get out of his car. The road is completely blocked with trees/rocks. He continues the rest of the way on foot. It is dark out, but he at least has a flashlight. then we see the dangerous lady driving away and mummbling that the crazy woman is bad, she will kill me. WS yells to her that the street is blocked and can he give her a ride, but she just drives off.

Back at the dorm, everyone is freaking out at the dead body. SO goes inside and tells everyone not to touch anything until the police come. But there was arock slide so the police won’t come soon. They have more than 200 CCTV’s around, how can someone kill anyone here?

So starts inspecting the scene. This person wasn’t running on the treadmill for a long time.

Cut back to WS walking in the forest again. he compains about this hogwan in the forest, but then he finally finds it. He runs inside and asks if anyone is around. Hello? But it is very empty and there are so many CCTV’s around. He wonders if it is really a hogwan. He yells for ajumma.

The place is really empty though, he walks around to all the rooms and doesn’t see anyone. But then he hears all teh commotion and sees all the kids at the workout room. He pushes himself through the room and sees SO.

#6
She is shocked to see him and he is just as shocked that she is there. He says he was worried about her because he couldn’t contact her. But then he sees the dead body, why is there a dead body there?

SO says they have to figure out the reason. He tells her that her eyes are big and she will fail this exam also. They get on the case.

MORNING
WS and SO walk around the school and talk to one of the teachers. He explains how some things are for the students and other things are for the teachers. SO tells WS that she pays $1700 per month to go here. WS is all like, what???? Give that money to him. But then SO asks about the dead guy.

One of the teachers says they had a dating incident here. SO asks about teh girl that committed suicide. But he teacher says that is all lies. She left the school but didn’t commit suicide. He took her back home.

Flash back to the girl crying in the car. The teacher tells her that she should meet someone who knows that she is pretty and she thanks him.

SO wonders why there is a rumor that she committed suicide. The teacher says that kids just make up rumors here because they have nothing else to do. WS asks to see the CCTV so the teacher shows him all their footage.

3-20-2018, 17:14:40
The boy went to the gym.

SO thinks that this boy was the only one using the gym, so the person who found him first is the most suspicious.

We see the girl running in and finding him there and screaming.

WS says she only spent 1 minute there, can she kill someone with only that amount of time. She only spent 20 seconds in front of the body. SO thinks that it looks like she was so surprised as if she saw a ghost. If it was an accident then she might have been surprised by that. They talk about it for a moment. they have a few limitations with the CCTV.

CHURCH
BK follows the superintendent around and into a church. He sits in the congregation while everyone prays. But then church lets out and BK accidentally on purpose bumps into the superintendent. Then the superintendent goes outside and helps the church members cross the street. BK comes up to him and asks for a favor. Can he take over this parking service? The man says he can do it and hand over the baton. But then the superintendent thinks BK looks familiar. They shake hands and talk about how they know each other, intelligence service!

Meanwhile SH is in his office doing nothing in particular. The police daughter, NR comes up to him and tells him she want to be in his team. But it looks like SH doesn’t want to take her. She follows him around anyway. She asks for his signature and says she can show him around. He tells her to listen to him, gongwon without a calling is just a salary person, but police have another duty. She thinks he is super cool.

BOARDING SCHOOL
WS knocks on someones door and asks her about the dead body, they heard she found the body first. But she isn’t answering. They want the manager/teacher to open door but he says he can’t open an employees door. He opens it, he is the only one with the key.

then WS and SO start to ask another person about the accident. He seems suspicious. They think he knows why this woman was looking for this dead guy, it has to do with the stalker case. The man says that woman’s cat died. this was a cat that she cared for like her own child. She shared her food and tea with her and they slept together.

WS wants to know how he knows the cat sleeps in the bed with her. He says that she told him! But it looks sketchy. He says that he knew she was dating that student. Flashback to this guy seeing the woman and the student kissing. the stalker also sees them kissing and slaps the girl.

So wants to know why they kept the student there since they were dating. He says he didn’t want to make a big rumor and he never thought this person would kill herself.

Ah, they haven’t gone into the room yet. They go back to the room with this man. the man says that the employee woman saw the ghost of the dead woman. He was evesdropping on the conversation and heard it. He is a bit of a stalker actually. WS thinks the same thing but SO says listening isn’t stalking and tell him to continue.

The man finds her key very quickly and SO thinks he found it so quickly among all those other keys on his chain. But opening a door isn’t a crime…

They open the door and we see that the girl is dead on her bed. The man says it wasn’t him, it wasn’t him! And he starts crying. They go back to the CCTV. WS gets a feeling, something is there. So wonders what his feeling is but he tells her not to rely on his feeling.

WS and SO leave and start looking though the footage with their little team of the friend, fan boy, and study girl. Study girl says she should study so the fan boy tells her that she can study and he will look some more. the friend tells her to just look at the CCTV, she even went to jail. She isn’t weak. She tells him that she was in a holding cell, not jail.

The three argue about this for a little bit.

WS stands up and tells them that they are all suspects. They are all like…again? Then all the students come into the room. WS tells them that they will all move 5 in a group until the police come. Until then they need to cooperate with their investigation. The fan girl thinks that ajusshi is charasmatic, SO says his nickname is drug dog. But the friend tells them to just look at the CCTV or they won’t be able to catch the criminal.

SO notices something strange. The student manager walks around without any reason. The friend thinks it is the cigarrettes. He reorded it. He plugs in the hidden camera and shows the manager stealing ciarrettes. then So goes back to the dead woman and takes a photo. This is a peace cigarrete.

WS and SO look around the bedroom crime scene. SO thinks this case is a locked room murder case. But WS says that is obvious. They go back to the body. The face is all red on the body as if she has a severe rash.

In the student room, the fan boy tells the study girl that she should get some fresh air. they all agree that they can all get some fresh air, but they have to go in groups of 5. they tell the manager that they are leaving, but he isn’t moving. Then he collapses, he is dead! His face is has the same kind of allergic reaction as the womans. All the students run out and WS and SO go to the scene.

WS inspects the body, he’s dead. SO thinks back to the other crimes and thinks this is a serial murder. She thinks this isn’t a locked up case, it is a trick. After murdering became a locked room, then after putting the trick, the murder trick becomes a locked room (?). WS wonders how he killed them and So says, the murderer is…
