The missing girl who is found dead
and the boy who becomes the suspect
Everyday Hyeon-ji goes out to hand out flyers to people. She never gives up hope of
finding her daughter who went missing three years ago. One day, she runs into Dain,
a newspaper delivery boy. For some reason, he runs off seeing the flyer. Next, the
police tell her that her daughter was found dead. The police who find a beetle at the
crime site gets information that there is a boy who carries around beetles. That boy
turns out to be Da-in. Meanwhile, Hyeon-ji receives an anonymous letter saying that
Da-in is not the killer.
Another girl is found dead
Da-in states in court that after his mother and little sister took their own life, he
became obsessed with collecting beetles found on corpses. Hyeon-ji receives a
second anonymous letter that tells the temperature and humidity of the crime site.
Studying the growth rate of larva found on her dead daughter’s belongings, she finds
out that the dead body was transferred from a different place. Soon, another girl is
found dead and Da-in is brought to trial without detention. Hyeon-ji brings Da-in
home who has nowhere to go.
The grieving mother and the murder suspect under the same roof
Da-in’s pet beetles can detect a fire even from miles away and flock to it. Hyeon-ji is
amazed at Da-in’s knowledge of beetles and tries to solve the case with his help, but
he does not open up his mind to her. He says that when he dies, he wants to die in
a fire so that he won’t be lonely.
