SeongWu gets off the car and thanks the officer for the ride before he leave.

As the police car is leaving, SeongWu goes back to his house but his eyes suddenly ache. It's starting with an ichy feeling, but the more he rubs his eyes the more uncomfortable he feels. Soon, it hurt so much that he can't even open his eyes. SeongWu tries to open the door, totally unaware of someone coming from behind.

Minhyun stops in front of an old warehouse and finds Daniel is standing there.

"How did you know this place?"

"My friend took me here. You must followed his intruction, right?"

Daniel said while looking over Jinyoung. This boy is exactly like SeongWu, always attract those lost souls.

Minhyun checking around. This is just an abandoned warehouse in place which is hardly has anyone comeby. It's looks really fit for doing dubious affairs.

Daniel pushes the door open and goes inside. The door was so old that it's almost broke down when he opened it. All windows are shut by new wooden bars. It's clearly that someone just shut them up recently. In the middle of the warehouse, there's a huge six-wings star draw on the floor. Daniel comes closer.

"Blood."

Even it's already dried and turned brown, Daniel still recognizes it's human blood.

There are small jars placed in the point of each wing. Jinyoung want to know what inside them but Minhyun stops him before he get close.

"Don't touch anything. This is a crime scene."

"Yes."

Daniel doesn't care much about those jars. He just notices the empty point of the star. Six points, but there're only five jars.

In the middle, there's a smaller star and there's mark of sticking tape on top of it. There was something supposed to be sticked there.

"He haven't finish it yet." – he said to himself.

"How's the place?"

Minhyun still standing outside with Jinyoung to avoid ruin anything in the scene. Daniel almost say something but a small cry coming from the corner stops him.

.

The warehouse doesn't have any light and too dark to see anything in the corner. A blue flame flares up and shines the way for Daniel but he just tell Minhyun to check it.

Minhyun notices a huge old porcelain jar in the corner. The jar was sealed with a wooden board and on top of it is a big stone. It's takes some strength to take it down.

Inside is a young woman. Her arms and legs were tied by sticking tape. Her mouth was also sealed shut. She seem to be terrified to see someone open the jar. Minhyun quickly shows her his police ID card to ease her.

"This is the 6th victim, right?" – Jinyoung ask.

"Yes, but he left her." – Daniel can't help but feel worry – "He didn't use her which mean he already found someone more suitable."

"Daniel-ssi, Minhyun-ssi, can we just help her first?"

Minhyun and Jinyoung helps the woman to get out of the jar and untie her. As soon as she's free, she starts crying in Minhyun's arms. Daniel feels really annoyed by her cry.

"So noisy! You deal with this yourself!"

"Hey, Daniel, you...."

Another blue flame flies in. It's get close to Daniel's ear and seem to whispering something to him.

"What?" – Daniel's face immediately turns bad.

"What's wrong?"

"He dare?!?"

Daniel goes mad and rushes out of the warehouse. Minhyun want to follow him but the woman still hold on him tightly. When Jinyoung goes out, Daniel can't no longer around.

SeongWu slowly wakes up. His head doesn't ache and he doesn't have a feeling of being drug. SeongWu doesn't understand why he suddenly passed out. However, he can't move. It's like someone holding him down so hard that he can't even lift his arms or legs. SeongWu's eyes can't see clearly. It's look like thre's a heavy mist covering everything. Moreover, his eyes still hurt. While he wondering what happening, there's a sound of footstep coming closer along with a smell of burning paper.

"Everything doesn't went as planned but at least I found a much better material." – a strident male voice comes up.

SeongWu can barely the figure of him. He is quite tall but very thin. The way he walks kinda odd. It's like he can't stand straight. SeongWu can't clearly see but he can feel warm ashes are spreading over his face. SeongWu tries to avoid it but an unknown force makes him to turn back and even unable to move his head or close his eyes. When the ashes got into his eyes, it hurt like someone stabbing his eyes with many knife. SeongWu want to yell out for help but that man quickly cover his mouth.

"Don't yell! It'll be a nuisance if others come in. I don't want to make any unnecessary kill."

The way he talk about killing is so calm to the point it makes SeongWu shiver. He knows that man definitely will kill anyone get in his way.

He uses blood to draw a star on SeongWu's forehead. The smell of blood is so strong, SeongWu feel like to vomit.

"Your eyes are very powerful. If you stay still, maybe I won't need to kill you. I just need your eyes." – he says with an really annoying laughter.

His words reminds SeongWu of Minhyun's work. He can be asure that this guy is a murderer Minhyun is looking for. But his eyes hurt so much that he can't think of anything else, including the fear of being captured by a serial killer.

"You killed those girls?"

"Indeed you has such ability. So? Have you seen those girl? Are they looking disgusting right now? Pale face with eyes filled with blood? The spell haven't completed so I can't see them yet. I still need your eyes..."

"See? You're wrong. I can't see "them" anymore."

"What?"

His finger stop at the edge of SeongWu's eyes. SeongWu can tell that he is angry by the way his finger is pressing against his face.

"You thought I'm gonna believe in your lie? Your eyes is shining. He helped me to see "the light". He told me, the brighter the light is, the more powerful the person is."

"He?"

"At the riverside, I saw it clearly. Your eyes possessed a bright blue light. It was so bright, like a burning flame."

"I don't understand what you're saying. Maybe I used to see spirit, but it's over now. I can't see them anymore."

He takes out a piece of paper which has some weird symbols drawn on. When a paper contact with a star on SeongWu's forehead, those symbols light up.

"See! You still has your power. Trying to fool me around?"

SeongWu doesn't know what ritual he is doing, but after having contact with the paper, his forehead feels really hot. The burning feeling spread to his eyes and makes him suffer even more than before. SeongWu want to fight against the murderer but the pain makes his head dizzy and can't think of anything...

Niel!
