He is committed to providing guests with an experience that exceeds their expectations, rather than simply pursuing profit maximization.Even in the collision of ideas with his partner Long Zaizhe, he still adhered to his principles and beliefs.

At the same time, Yin Baomin stepped into the police station again. It had been twenty years since the last time.She brought a cardboard box full of old memories, one of which was a yellowed photo that quietly told the story of the first case at the beginning of her career.The camera pans back to Sang Joon, back in 2001, when he was running a vacation home that fit in with the timeline of Bo Min's case.

Unexpectedly, when he returned, there was chaos outside the hotel.

Reporters swarmed in like vultures smelling blood, and Xiangjun had to face this sudden storm.He identified himself to the police officer and took a photo of a mysterious man.

Although he chose to bear the pain alone, his inner struggle and doubts could not be calmed down.

Faced with Bao Min's keen insight, Yingxia hesitated to speak several times, and finally chose to bury the secret deep in her heart.He burned the towels and records that might be clues, and locked the door to the basement again, as if to seal everything in the past forever.However, after work, his thoughts were like a wild horse, unable to control himself, and his blind hope was as weak and swaying as a candle.As for the past in 2001, Eun Kyung's departure has become an eternal pain in Sang Jun's heart.The Lakeview Hotel, nicknamed the “Murder Motel”, witnessed her struggle and despair.

Yishan's trip was just for dinner, with no intention of staying overnight. A subtle tug-of-war about staying overnight quietly unfolded between the two. In the end, Cheng'e was able to stay with Yingxia's compromise.At dinner time, Ying-ha and Ji-soo (Yi-sun's friend) grilled delicious food together. However, Ying-ha was restless and frequently burned her hands by mistake. She also glanced at her wrists from time to time, as if she was waiting for an agreement that had not yet arrived.Cheng'e also couldn't calm down. She looked around, her eyes finally resting on the ancient vinyl record player, and then she put on an elegant black dress, trying to find a moment of tranquility through music.

She asked Yingxia to use the record player, but was declined on the grounds that the machine was damaged. Behind this understatement was actually Yingxia's deliberate avoidance of past secrets.As night fell and Yishan left, Cheng'e sat alone in front of the door, drinking to soothe her sorrows. A dream about digging soil in the garden suddenly came to her, pulling her thoughts deeper into the fog.Ying Xia finally couldn't hold back and directly questioned Cheng'e about the true meaning of her trip. She responded to this uneasiness by diving into the swimming pool - although she once said she was afraid of water, this move undoubtedly revealed her inner struggle and determination..

Shi Xian, this character is like a beacon in the fog. His true role has yet to be revealed, but he has quietly become the key to the development of the story.Looking back on the past, Enjing's dilemma is still heavy.Although she can maintain a normal life on the surface by relying on the paralysis of alcohol, in fact she relies entirely on Xiang Jun's silent support.After a storm, the two decided to work together to sell the rental house in order to find relief, but this meant that they had to accept a significant reduction in the price. Although Eun-kyung was optimistic, he still had to face Ki-ho's alcohol problem.

Little did Ki-ho know that his mother had decided to quit drinking and had thrown away all the soju in the house in an attempt to change her fate.Xiangjun's life trajectory was even more tortuous. He lost his parents in his early years, experienced wandering, and finally ran the Lakeview Motel here.However, the passage of time did not bring stable happiness, but made him feel that everything was passing quietly.He longed to bid farewell to the past completely by selling the hotel, but the shackles of reality forced him to return to day-to-day work.

Eun-kyung is also trying to find herself, but after losing the shelter of alcohol, post-traumatic stress disorder haunts her like a nightmare, and visions of corpses frequently intrude on her mind.Sleeping pills became her only comfort, but they were inadvertently taken away by Ji Hao, laying the groundwork for the subsequent tragedy.The roar of the ambulance broke the tranquility, and a sudden event closely linked everyone's fate.

However, he was the one who suffered the most harm.When he fell to the ground in a coma, the shocking handwriting on his hand - ”Murder Motel 9pm%, became the key to unlocking all the secrets.When Xiang Jun witnessed this scene, he was shocked and more helpless and angry about the fate of the hotel.He rushed into the school and had a fierce confrontation with the parents, but he never expected that all this was a trap set up by the developers and the parents of the students, and the hotel's sale plan was frustrated.

When the anniversary celebration was occupied by reporters swarming in, the atmosphere became extremely complex and delicate.Among them, Bao Min's unexpected intervention added a bit of unpredictability to the storm.She pointedly pointed out that most journalists are just passers-by chasing profits, capturing a moment of shock with their cameras and then leaving in a hurry.But Yeom Dongchan, this unique investigative reporter, is like a breath of fresh air. He is eager to delve into the truth, speak out for what happened at the motel, and strive to restore a more real and humane story to win for Sang Joon's current predicament.Public sympathy and understanding.

However, Xiangjun's heart was closed. He refused Dongcan's interview request and chose to bury the pain deep in his heart.But the wheel of fate did not stop spinning. Bao Min's sudden departure at the police station seemed to indicate that another storm was brewing.The camera turned and returned to reality. Cheng'e was sitting alone at the dining table, tasting the bowl of pasta and tomato sauce that had been carefully prepared for Shixian.Now, this dish was made only for her and Yingxia. The two sat opposite each other, with unspeakable emotions flowing in silence.Cheng'e's return is undoubtedly a response to the unresolved love in the past. She can't forget it, and neither can he.

The emotions surging in his heart drove him straight to the police station to try to find the answer.In the police station, Yingxia's anxiety and confusion intertwined into a complex web. His nose was bleeding for some reason, but a note in his pocket became his only clue.It was a photo of his daughter Yishan. Her face was carefully circled, as if she was silently telling some deep meaning.Ying Xia passed Bao Min at the door of the police station. The two of them hurried in different directions with their own secrets and worries.

Time jumps forward again, and we return to the 2000s, an era full of uncertainty and tragedy.Bao Min stepped into the motel and saw Eun Kyung lying quietly on the bed in Room 403, with no signs of life.On the mantelpiece, a bottle of soju and scattered pills silently told her last struggle and despair.Xiang Jun's shock and grief almost destroyed him, and he could not accept this cruel reality.

Episode 4

In the prologue of episode four, we are taken back in time, as Sang-joon passionately leads Eun-kyung and Ki-ho into the motel with the intention of acquiring it.Behind this move lies the secret wish in his wife's suicide note - all she longs for is peace as a destination for the liberation of her soul.In her suicide note, she also expressed her deep affection for Ji Hao, and every word revealed the depth and reluctance of maternal love.

When the camera turned, Xiang Jun's figure appeared in the coldness of the prison, and he had a meaningful conversation with Xiang Zhe.He was filled with confusion and confusion, questioning why he had fallen into such a situation.Faced with Xiang Jun's question, Xiang Zhe responded with a sharp rhetorical question, what was the scene on the bridge that night?Thanks to Bao Min's help, Xiang Jun once again witnessed the true face of the murderer, and then left in a hurry, leaving many unsolved mysteries.

Today, Bao Min has quietly embarked on her own journey. She is full of indescribable obsession and excitement for delving into those thrilling murder cases.This persistence and courage earned her the unique nickname “It” in the police community. The captain even compared the challenges and excitement she faced to a dangerous hide-and-seek game.However, even in the tense moments of adrenaline rush, Bo Min never revealed too much about his inner world to the captain.

Time passed to the present again, and Yingxia embarked on a journey to Seoul with deep worries about her daughter's safety.Cheng'e's figure was still watching in secret, but Yingxia unfortunately lost her trace during the street chase.He tried to seek answers from Long Zaizhe, but ultimately failed to bluntly point out the truth about Cheng'e's suspected murder of Shixian.

Going back to a year ago, when Shi Xian booked the room, the name he used was closely linked to Cheng'e, while the phone number was as unreachable as a ghost.On the way back to the motel, Yingxia was driven by an inexplicable obsession. He firmly believed that Cheng'e was hiding an ulterior secret.This belief eventually led him to the laptop that might hold the answer, but he failed to find a safe and effective way to unlock its secrets.

On the way back, Yingxia's eyes were attracted by several white trucks. They passed by at high speed on the road, but they did not cause any harm to him.However, when he returned to the motel, he was surprised to find that the trucks had unloaded a large amount of plants and a pile of torn art portraits were scattered beside the swimming pool.All this made Yingxia feel an inexplicable urgency and uneasiness.

Driven by this sense of urgency, Yingxia began a careful search of Cheng'e's vehicle, where she discovered medicines from a local pharmacy.As the investigation deepens, he finally confronts Cheng'e after discovering clues that she hired movers to clear the furniture.In anger, he rushed into the swimming pool, pressed Cheng'e tightly into the water, and grabbed her throat with both hands.Fortunately, Cheng'e survived in the end, but her originally calm appearance completely collapsed at this moment.

At dinner time, Yingxia and Cheng'e met again.He tried to expose Cheng'e's lies through the driving recorder images, but those images could only prove that she had left alone.Blood stains found while cleaning the room, missing towels and the smell of bleach in the shower all became key pieces of evidence in the battle.However, Cheng'e retorted with half-truths, putting Yingxia into a more complicated situation.

Faced with Cheng'e's ridicule and provocation, Yingxia knew that her “conclusive evidence” was not enough to bring her to justice.What he knows better is that if he chooses to call the police, he is likely to be regarded as an accomplice for concealing the truth.In this dilemma, he made a difficult decision - to allow Cheng'e to continue her actions, but he would keep his distance from her.The dinner ended unhappily, but the conflict was far from over.Especially when Yingxia recorded the entire conversation and took away Cheng'e's laptop, it paved the way for future contests.

In the end, Yingxia stood at the door of the police station but hesitated.He knew that handing over the recordings might draw him deeper into the whirlpool.However, at this moment, the vehicle driven by Cheng'e suddenly accelerated and crashed into him... This scene not only added more tension and suspense to the story, but also laid important foreshadowing for the development of the subsequent plot.

It immediately aroused Bao Min's high vigilance and in-depth exploration, especially since this matter was closely connected with the complex entanglement behind the lake view.

Looking back on the past, Bo Min noticed Dong Chan's unusual attention to the case, and cleverly guided her to reveal clues to another unsolved case - “water bill”. Although short but meaningful, it laid the foundation for the follow-up.The plot is foreshadowed.Through delicate narrative techniques, this episode cleverly uses hard cuts to gradually reveal the truth behind this clue in subsequent chapters.

With his unique insight, Bao Min profoundly explained the essence of searching for the truth: The real key lies in discovering clues that should exist but are absent for some reason.“ This concept is not only reflected in the meticulous search for physical evidence, but also deeply touches on the subtle changes in human nature.Bao Min's careful examination of everyone around her is an important reason why she can reveal the mystery so completely.

The camera switches to a fierce confrontation between Cheng'e and Yingxia.Outside the hospital, Cheng'e challenged Yingxia who was undergoing treatment in a strong manner. However, after Yingxia returned home, she found that her secret had been ruthlessly exposed by Cheng'e and the evidence had been swept away.Although Ying Xia tried to buy peace with silence, Cheng'e pressed forward step by step under the guise of ”friendship%, escalating the conflict between the two into a fierce battle for loyalty and territory.

It is worth noting that Cheng'e's car quietly changed from a red Jeep to a blue sports car. Although this detail may seem insignificant, it adds a bit of mystery and change to the character's image.Subsequently, Cheng'e's unexpected encounter at the holiday home pushed her into trouble. Facing the police's inquiry, she fell into passivity due to lack of legal certificate.Meanwhile, the visit of the laundry owner brings additional troubles to Cheng'e, all part of Yingxia's elaborate eviction plan.

However, Yingxia's inner uncertainty is in sharp contrast with Long Zaizhe's optimistic prediction, making this contest even more complicated and confusing.In Cheng'e's art world, the noise of the outside world seems to be isolated by noise-canceling headphones, but she does not choose to escape.With the arrival of new guests, Yingxia's strategy further escalates, putting Cheng'e in an embarrassing situation.However, Cheng'e's inner struggle and anger are like a volcano that is ready to explode at any time.

The next morning, the children's pranks awakened Cheng'e from her dream, and Yingxia's phone call brought more urgent news - the influx of a large number of guests forced her to go into battle in person.Faced with Yingxia's indifference and threats, Cheng'e failed to change the status quo despite her fierce words.Yingxia's decisive move - turning off her mobile phone and going deep into the forest - pushed the relationship between the two into an unknown abyss.

Elsewhere, Ki-ho’s presence at the hospital and his rough handling of the old woman’s bouquet contrast sharply with Bo-min’s musings on Mr. Kim’s ghostwriting case.The mysterious figure in the surveillance video, the old case from a month ago, and the lack of conclusive evidence have not shaken Bao Min's determination to track down the truth.She knew that only by digging deeper could she uncover the mystery behind this suicide case.As the plot progresses, Officer Kim Sun-tae's suspicion and concern about Young-ha in the police station increase day by day, and the subtle emotional entanglement between him and Seung-e also adds more complexity to the story.

Yingxia's arrival, as a key player in the battle for the motel, not only triggered Xuantai's severe reprimand, but also revealed another side of his protectiveness towards Cheng'e.Xuantai's warning is not only a threat to Yingxia, but also an uneasiness that he may be involved in a deeper whirlpool.The struggle between Cheng'e and Yingxia is like a war without gunpowder. The two sides constantly exchange words and actions, and sparks fly in every contact.

Cheng'e's anger and ridicule towards Yingxia, as well as Yingxia's violent reaction to Cheng'e, indicate that this struggle is far from over.And Bao Min's doubts about Ying Xia's true identity laid a greater foundation for the whole story.Xuantai's reaction to Yingxia leaving Cheng'e's room shows his keen observation and intuition of potential dangers.He tried to prevent Yingxia from further actions, but Cheng'e took advantage of his subtle emotions towards her and made strategic moves to distract Xuantai.

This scene not only shows Cheng'e's wit and cunning, but also reveals Xuantai's struggle between emotion and responsibility.The conversation at the police station after Yingxia was arrested was an important confrontation between Bao Min and Yingxia.With his keen intuition, Bao Min noticed Ying Xia's inner struggle and pain, and tried to give him a chance to talk.However, Yingxia's refusal and departure seemed to indicate that he had deeper secrets and plans.

His promise of a full refund to Officer Jin may be a strategic retreat, leaving room for subsequent actions.Xuantae's efforts in the woods and Cheng'e's sudden appearance and intervention further heighten the tension of the story.Cheng'e's expulsion of Xuantai and her mysterious phone call in the cornfield make people speculate about her motives and plans.And Yingxia's decision to agree to sell the motel to Cheng'e may be a new turning point, heralding a reshuffle of the forces on both sides.

The surging emotions in his heart drove him to hide the hat under the bed, trying to escape from the unbearable memory.

However, Ji Hao is brewing an unknown plan deep in his heart, and Xiang Zhe's figure has become an obsession that he cannot get rid of.He held a rifle and practiced shooting hard in Zheng Dou's shopping mall. The relationship between the two became closer. Their common goal of revenge bound them closely, and they vowed to make Xiang Zhe pay the price.As time goes by, Ji Hao still remains stubborn and lives in his aunt's dilapidated mansion.

By chance, he met Yingxia after visiting the hospital. In his anger, he knocked Yingxia to the ground and pointed the gun directly at her forehead. However, Yingxia's sincere explanation made him suspend his impulse.The scene changed and Ying Xia woke up in the hospital. She was worried, fearing that her rental house would become the next “Lake View” because the shadow of Shi Xian's case was quietly approaching.In order to seek peace of mind, he decided to personally set foot on the lake view to find out the truth, and considered reselling the property to Cheng'e to get rid of all the troubles.

At the same time, Bao Min was extremely anxious because he could not contact Ying Xia, and Cheng A hurried away in a muddy sports car.Bao Min showed up at the scene and looked around for signs of Ying Xia.On the other side, Yingxia walked into the real estate agency that Xiangjun had visited before and firmly stated that she did not want to sell the property.Traveling through the intersection of time and space, he visited Xiangjun, who was now living in a nursing home and in a trance.

Xiangjun is immersed in the illusion of the past, thinking that he is still busy at the motel. Yingha's care makes him open up, confiding his expectations for Jiho and his deep wariness towards Xiangzhe, and even reveals that he will protect his daughter and fight at all costsXiang Zhe's determination.Yingxia's actions have already fallen into Jihao's sight, and a well-planned trap is waiting for him.Ji Hao mistakenly believed that Ying Xia was an undercover police officer, and his uncle's phone call only intensified his doubts and determination.

He began leaving marks on the windows and headed straight to the hospital, intending to assassinate Xiang Zhe while he was visiting his critically ill mother.Although Yingxia struggled hard, she knew nothing about the coming storm.In the hospital, Xiangzhe felt mixed emotions in his heart when faced with his mother's fragility on her deathbed.At this critical moment, Yingxia's gunfire sounded, but failed to hit the target.The influx of police officers made the situation even more chaotic. Xiangzhe took advantage of the chaos to fight back, and a police officer was unfortunately killed.

Jong Dou stepped forward and got into a fierce battle with Xiang Zhe, but Ji Hao arrived with a vengeful fury. Calling himself “Ghost”, he finally pulled the trigger on Xiang Zhe and fulfilled his long-cherished wish.Xiangzhe recognized Jihao at the last moment of his life, and all grudges were settled with his fall.After completing the mission, Ji Hao resolutely jumped out of the window, ending this long journey of revenge.After the haze of escape dissipated, Ji Hao returned home, only to encounter a shocking scene of Ying Ha holding a “gun”.However, it was just a false alarm. What Yingxia had in her hand was just a toy pistol, which had no lethality at all.

Faced with Yingxia's questioning, Jihao insisted that everything had been settled, refused to surrender, and finally drove Yingxia out of the house in a decisive gesture.But the twist of fate often lies in a thought. Yingxia did not really leave. He returned in time and prevented Jihao from falling into the abyss of despair - committing suicide.At Yingxia's insistence, the rifle was taken away, and a conversation about life and death quietly began.Ying Xia's words were like sharp swords, penetrating the haze in Ji Hao's heart and making him realize the value of life and the infinite possibilities of the future.

Ki-ho is a traumatized young man whose mind has been distorted by the shadow of Xiang-chul. The death of his mother has pushed him to the brink of despair.However, with Yingxia's help, he gradually realized that he was not alone.Young Ha not only opened up the connection with Xiang Jun, but also showed her care and support for Ji Hao with practical actions.He encourages Ki-ho to listen to his aunt and face the future with strength, and promises to lend a helping hand when everything is settled.

At the same time, many mysteries in the plot are also revealed one by one.The meeting between Baomi and Xiangzhe, the special meaning of the hat Xiangzhe wore, and the truth about the death of the ghostwriter all gradually became clear as the plot progressed.Xiangzhe finished reading the memoirs in the motel. Although his heart had calmed down, Jihao's knot was still unsolved. He was still trapped in the shadow of the past and could not extricate himself.

In order to get rid of the shackles of the past, Yingxia and Jihao made a decision together - to burn the letters carrying painful memories.This is not only a farewell ceremony to the past, but also an expectation for future life.Yingxia even decided to destroy all evidence that might threaten Jihao, and carefully fabricated a story to provide him with an alibi.Although the hospital cameras may have recorded Ki-ho entering with a gun, Young-ha's plan seems to be thorough enough.

However, at the end of the episode, Yingxia receives a call from Cheng'e, and a new storm seems to be brewing.Cheng'e demanded Yingxia's appearance in an extreme way, and her neck was covered in blood. All this indicates that unknown events that are about to happen will bring about a more complicated situation.The audience can't help but guess whether the appearance of Cheng'e will change the fate of Yingha and Jihao?How will they face this sudden change?All suspense will be revealed in the future plot.

Episode 7

《Silent Frog Croaking》The seventh episode profoundly depicts Yingxia's emotional breakdown in the hospital. He blames himself for everything. This scene is heavy and thought-provoking.Then, the camera slowly turned to Cheng'e. She drove into the gallery parking lot and accidentally discovered the mud on the front of the car, which foreshadowed the coming storm.At this moment, a man named Zai Xi suddenly appeared in her car, breaking the tranquility. He was Cheng'e's long-lost friend, who had just regained his freedom from behind bars.

Faced with his sudden appearance, Cheng'e's attitude was cold and guarded, and there were unspeakable difficulties behind it.In the parking lot, the two people's emotions quickly escalated and eventually turned into a fierce physical conflict. This scene was full of tension and helplessness.Jae-seok's anger was like a storm. He accused Cheng'a of passing on his resentment to the innocent Shixian, and even absurdly believed that she was the one who ended their child.

The truth gradually emerged. It turned out that Shi Xian lost his biological mother at an early age, and Cheng'e had been silently playing the role of mother. Faced with Zaixi's accusations, although she calmly denied it on the surface, she was turbulent in her heart.In order to get out of the predicament, Cheng'e cleverly triggered the alarm, used a fire extinguisher as a weapon, drove away from the scene, and locked herself in the gallery office to seek a moment of peace.However, Jae-seok's violent behavior has attracted public attention and he eventually escapes, while Cheng-a, although slightly injured, still returns to the gallery, demonstrating extraordinary resilience.

Subsequently, with an almost decisive gesture, Cheng'e drove a white van into the core area of ​​the exhibition, creating a shocking chaos.But she did not indulge in this, but directly made a request to Dr. Liu, hoping to use legal means to temporarily take Zaixi into custody.Afterwards, she quietly left the gallery and returned home, her inner struggle and pain evident.At home, Cheng'e was almost frantically handling blood-stained clothes. This scene was captured by Jing Nantong through surveillance video, but she ignored it.
