Discovered at the site: a corpse and a suicide shock

At the construction site, the rapist is found dead, his body dismembered in a grisly tableau. The finding deepens the mystery while unsettling the police team with questions that defy ordinary explanation. In a parallel blow, Cha-siu is revealed to have shot himself, leaving the squad reeling from multiple deaths.

Reporters and a ghostly encounter

Two reporters, Balm and Coffee, join the case to chase leads and document the grisly events. Balm secretly photographs the body parts and encounters the rapist’s ghost, an experience that ends with him being knocked down by a car. The eerie incident raises further questions about the haunting surrounding the case.

Balm and Ada commit suicide

Balm and Ada are later found to have taken their own lives, intensifying the sense that the haunting has personal stakes for those involved. Their deaths carry a heavy emotional weight for the investigators and the people around them. The line between crime, grief, and the supernatural grows increasingly blurred.

Clever's attempted suicide and sisterhood of the twins

Blue hears the whisper from the past

Blue retrieves a special sound recorder that can capture inaudible sounds. When she plays it, a hoarse female voice names Peanut's great-grandmother Hwa Yuet-may and reveals that the construction site was once the Hwa family residence. The discovery ties present events to a long history of the family curse.

Past-life hypnosis begins

Blue invites Peanut and Li to be hypnotized to recall their past lives, with Coffee and Clever joining the session. Under hypnosis, they uncover a love triangle and a fatal betrayal buried in the family history. The session links the present hauntings to ancient grievances.

The past unfolds: great-grandfather, Tift, and Hwa

Under hypnosis, they learn Peanut's great-grandfather loved Tift but was forced to marry Hwa from a rich family. Jealousy leads Hwa to hire thugs to kidnap and rape Tift, who is later slain when Suet betrays her by stabbing her in the head. The great-grandfather, unable to bear the torment, kills himself, and Tift returns as a vengeful ghost.

Tift becomes a vengeful ghost

The memory of Tift’s brutal death returns as a vengeful ghost, hunting the Hwa clan and anyone connected to the past. The haunting intensifies as the past bleeds into the present during the hypnosis revelations. The living must confront the consequences of family betrayal.

Coffee revealed as Suet's reincarnation

Peanut realizes that Coffee is the reincarnation of Suet, the betrayer who doomed Tift. This revelation links the modern killings and hauntings to the original betrayal and deepens the tension between the characters. The line between living and dead becomes increasingly blurred.

Tift's possession and confrontation
