The crime scene was swarming with cops who were securing the area. A couple were in the living room of the tiny apartment, crying while their daughter was in shock. Jina and Hobin entered the apartment, heading straight towards the bedroom where the body was kept.

Kyuhyun was there and so were the rest of the members of Jina's team. Jiwoon was talking to the cops while Jaebum, Dahoon, Chanmi and Woohee were collecting evidence. Woohee was checking the bed while Chanmi checked the discarded laundry.

The body was placed in front of the laptop just like how it was with Yisub's body. His throat was cut off and there was a look of pure terror on his face. Blood pooled around the body but it had dried. The boy must have been dead for hours.

Before Jina could ask what happened to the boy, Kyuhyun started his analysis.

"The boy's name is Lee Minjoong and he died at midnight sharp," he stated in a monotone. "Cause of death is due the deep cut in his jugular vein, causing heavy bleeding and blood loss. The claw used to cut his throat-"

"Claw?" Hobin interrupted. "Not a knife?"

"A claw was used to slash his throat, the cut being exactly five inch deep," Kyuhyun went on. "He died instantly."

Jina was checking the laptop which had recorded his last activity at 12 am but no other activity afterwards.

"No one saw anything?" She asked.

"The sister said that she heard noises coming from his room but when she checked on him, he was alive," Jiwoon reported. "It was around 11:55 PM and he told her to go away. He was alone then."

Jina stooped down to check the body. To her surprise, there was something stuck on Minjoong's shirt. 

"It's hair," Kyuhyun said. "A woman's hair."

"He was with a woman?" Hobin frowned. He put on his gloves and picked up the hair. It was a strand of black hair and he studied it with interest. 

"But you said there was no one else in the room," he told Jiwoon. "Did he go out yesterday?"

"His parents said that he came back home and changed into these clothes," Jiwoon recounted. "Then he ate dinner and went to sleep."

"Maybe the hair belongs to his mother or sister," Jina suggested. "We'll have it tested."

She took the hair from Hobin's hand and placed it in a plastic bag. Hobin let the cops investigate the scene while he went outside to talk to the family. Taking off his gloves, he approached the parents and held out his hand to them.

"I'm Doctor Ohm Hobin," he said. "Special Consultant to the National Police."

Minjoong's parents looked at him, their eyes completely red and wet with tears. The father, Mr. Lee shook his hand. Instantly, Hobin delved into his memories to see if anyone had arrived that night but to his disappointment, there was nothing special in those memories. All he saw were images of a normal family. Minjoong seemed to be a typical moody teenager who was about to apply for colleges and other than petty fights, there was nothing else in those memories.

"I'm Lee Yeon," Mr. Lee said. "And this is my wife, Hyekyo."

Mrs. Lee nodded at Hobin but sniffed. 

"I'm sorry for your loss," Hobin said, extending his hand to her. She sniffed and shook his hand. Hobin checked her memories as well but there was nothing useful in them. The sister was also with them and Hobin shook her hand as well. Still, there was nothing. After her brother drove her away from his room, she had gone to sleep and no other event occurred.

"Who found him?" he asked.

"I did," Mrs. Lee replied in a thick tone. "I went in there to call him for breakfast and...and…"

She shuddered at the thought of her son's dead body and began to sob hard. Mr. Lee and their daughter were consoling her. Hobin slowly got up and left the family alone. It seemed that they really did not know what happened to their son.

The police finished their work and after sweeping the area for all evidence, they sealed off the room. Jina and her team returned to the precinct to follow up on the cases.

"What did we find out so far?" She asked them in the briefing room. "We go two kids who have seemingly committed suicide. And what else?"

"The last site they visited is Blue Fish," Dahoon stated. He was in possession of both the laptops and went through the browsing history. "But there is something very interesting here."

He turned Minjoong's laptop around for the others to see. "Look at this," he said, pointing at the browser history. "Minjoong visited this same site at 12 am yesterday. And he died at 12 am today. He visited this site only two times whereas Yisub did not visit it. Rather, it popped up and he happened to click the site."

Jiwoon frowned. This site…

Suddenly, something clicked in her mind.

"Do we know what this site is about?" Jina asked.

"I've been trying to refresh it but no luck," Dahoon replied. "It's not working. I even tried a VPN."

"That's weird," Jina muttered but Jiwoon spoke up.

"Boss, remember the case I was talking about two months ago?" she asked. "The one uptown where a boy was found dead in his room? He killed himself and was found by his mother but he was hanging by the fan."

"The case about Yeon Hajoon?" Jina recalled. "He was going through a lot of depression, right? His girlfriend left him and went abroad."

"Yes," Jiwoon nodded. "The last site he visited on his phone was this one. Blue Fish."

Hobin leaned over with interest. "Blue Fish?" he echoed. "This site might be involved with their deaths."

He stood up and picked up a marker to write on the glass board. 

"There were numerous cases like this in the past," he said to the team. "Where a certain app creates a psychological disturbance in the minds of the vulnerable teens. They are designed in a way to make the users do a series of dares. At first, the dares are harmless but once a player advances in those dares, they start to receive very deadly ones. Sometimes, the game developers end up stealing user information and in the final stage, they make the players kill each other."

"Of course!" Jina realized. "That explains why these kids killed themselves in front of the laptop or phones!"

"They've been made to do a dare," Jiwoon nodded in understanding. "Either way, they were coaxed into killing themselves. Can we track down the IP address?"

"I'll try but most of these sites use the dark web," Dahoon replied. "It's very hard to track them down."

Hobin and Jina glanced at each other. If a demon was involved and lurking in the web, it would be nearly impossible to catch it. But summoning any demon meant there was a person behind the ritual and they must track that person down.

"Try," Jina ordered. "We'll have to catch them before anyone else is hurt. Dismissed."

Everyone nodded and left. Only Jiwoon and Hobin remained behind to talk to Jina.

"Do you guys think a demon is involved in this?" Jiwoon asked. Jina had already told her about Yisub's condition and how the ghost told them that he did not kill himself but could not recall the details of his death either.

"We do," Hobin confirmed. "But this demon is different. He's preying on these teenagers and using their weaknesses as an advantage."

"If the websites are logged into at 12 am, then does that mean the site activates only at midnight?" Jina wondered.

"Let's find out," Hobin said.
