Crime Story (1993) Movie Script

1
-Did you check the lottery numbers yet?
-What for?
If this goes well, it will be better than
winning the lottery!
Let's do it!
Help!
Gag him!
You bastard! Watch how you drive!
He strangled me from behind
and then his car hit us.
Don't shift the blame on me!
You're the one who stopped suddenly!
If he stopped suddenly,
don't you know how to stop too?
What did you say?
Don't talk to my brother like that!
-Are you tired of living?
-Are you two done fighting?
With people like you, how are we
supposed to kidnap Wong Yat Fei?
Do you think he's a corpse?
He's bound to fight back!
Crap...
I said to switch off your pagers
when we're in action!
If something unexpected happens,
you have to know what to do!
Inspector Chan, Triad Bureau.
Gun.
Sign here.
Go straight in.
Thank you.
Inspector Chan, it happened 48 hours ago,
but you're still so tense.
What's the problem?
Tense? Not at all.
Then please run through what happened.
-Run!
-Help!
I'm in a lot of pain.
Police! Don't move!
Sorry.
It's okay. You're still insisting
that you're not tense?
Bastard!
The psychological pressure felt by
our colleagues who have had to fire a gun
can be divided
into three different groups.
So...
The first group worries
about hurting the innocent.
The second
worries about getting injured
during the gunfight.
You damn cop, show your face!
Out of the way!
The last group cannot handle
the pressure of having killed someone
after firing at the criminal.
According to what you've said,
your circumstances fit
the profile of the last group.
It means you can't deal with
having shot someone to death.
Even if you're right,
if you were in my shoes,
how would you have handled it?
Me?
I would ask my superior to give me
time off to rest for a while.
Thank you very much! I don't need a rest.
You can write up
the report however you want.
That's all.
I, Ng Kwok Wah, from Haifeng, Guangzhou,
currently head of Wo Lok Tong.
I, Ng Kwok Yan, assistant general manager
of Golden Dragon Trading Company.
I, Hung Ting Bong,
from Huiyang, Guangzhou,
currently a detective in
the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau.
I, Simon Ting, from Jiayi, Taiwan,
director of Xing Hua Brokerage.
I, Yen Chi Sheng, from Sichuan,
currently the CEO of Red Star Cooperative.
We all swear today, March 11, 1990,
to be bonded as brothers.
We were born on different days,
but we pledge to die on the same day.
Today, we five brothers swear
on our spilled blood
to join forces to erase
the corrupt businessman, Wong Yat Fei.
May good deeds be rewarded,
and evil deeds punished.
We act as emissaries of Heaven,
to take away his ill-gotten gains.
If anyone betrays a brother,
then he will be struck by lightning.
If anyone betrays our honor,
may his body not be intact in death.
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
Superintendent Cheung is looking for you.
He asked that you go to his
office as soon as you arrive.
Okay, thanks.
I pay millions in taxes every year.
The police should do something about it.
This is Inspector Chan.
This is Mr. Wong Yat Fei.
Mr. Wong suspects someone wants
to kidnap him.
I want you to join in.
It's not suspicion, I have proof.
I sent a staff member to the site
to take photos
to see if someone was stealing
construction materials from there.
We discovered this car has been
parked for four consecutive days
in front of the construction site gates.
These people show up every day.
Is this over-sensitivity a result of
your being kidnapped last time?
Definitely not,
only my intuition alerting me to trouble.
Your intuition?
-Correct.
-Inspector Chan, take a seat.
Don't underestimate my intuition.
Thirty percent of my success
is a result of my abilities and hard work.
Seventy percent is a result of
decisions made based on my intuition.
During the 1967 riots,
I made the decision to buy a lot of land.
In 1974, only I had the guts to bid for
the Shatin Fotan factory area
that everyone else thought was worthless.
These decisions that made a lot of money
were not because of foresightedness,
but intuition.
Mr. Wong, do you think that your
being kidnapped three years ago
has possibly made you
more anxious in the long run?
It's possible.
So will you do something about it or not?
We will investigate.
Inspector Chan, follow up this case.
Hey!
What's the matter with you?
Why won't you pick up my calls?
I have to work, missy!
Bullshit!
What cop case are you working on
that keeps you away for eight weeks?
Don't tell me you got assigned
as an undercover cop.
What are you after, missy?
To know everything that
goes on at the station?
I don't know anything. I only know
that you're a small-time detective
with a salary of just 20,000 dollars.
Why don't you quit? I'll support you.
I don't need you to support me.
I need my self-respect.
Well? Are you all sweaty now?
Get in the car.
Come back and take a bath.
I don't have time.
I'll come up to your place later.
What are you up to now?
I'm in the middle of something.
I'll look you up when I'm done.
Work again! Tell me what you're up to!
You can't leave tonight
if you don't tell me!
Stop nagging and get lost, witch!
You scum! You dare to desert me?
I'll look for someone else!
You think no one would be interested
if I spread my legs?
There will be a queue from
Tsim Sha Tsui to Sha Tau Kok!
Fool!
Everyone with money
is fleeing as if it were 1997.
The outlook for luxury flats
will continue to worsen for some time.
Stephen, I've decided to change the plans.
Instead of 2,000 square feet flats, let's
divide it into four 500 square feet ones.
I've worked it out. This type of small
flat is best suited for small families.
I'm sure they will sell well.
Boss, if we split one flat into four,
only seventy percent of the area
will be usable.
Wardrobes won't fit into the bedrooms
once the bed goes in.
No, you get what you pay for.
If I sell my flats at a low price,
even a blue-collar worker
can afford a mortgage.
The Building Authority won't approve it
in time if we make changes now.
Don't worry about it. Just do as I say.
Change the plans for all the
other construction sites too.
You can just make the changes while
submitting the new plans to the BA.
Contact the contractor to have
the workers start working nights too.
If we sell the flats faster,
we'll make the money back.
-The sooner it's finished, the better.
-Okay.
-CID! Freeze!
-CID!
So what if you're CID?
-Don't move!
-Police!
Let me go!
"Pay our wages"?
What?
Police.
-Can't I collect...
-Move!
-So what if you're cops?
-Mr. Wong.
It seems that
they're not here to kidnap you.
It's not that simple.
Work is available, wages aren't!
Wong Yat Fei, a heartless scoundrel!
Work is available, wages aren't!
Wong Yat Fei, a heartless scoundrel!
Work is available, wages aren't!
Wong Yat Fei, a heartless scoundrel!
Work is available, wages aren't!
Wong Yat Fei, a heartless scoundrel!
CID! Don't start any trouble!
Stand back!
-Why would you arrest them?
-How can you just arrest anyone?
Arrest me then!
Put away your guns! Everyone back up!
-Back up!
-See here...
Keep your cool, everyone!
And if we don't?
What's this?
-Losing my cool doesn't kill me!
-Arrest him!
Let go!
Step back!
Get out of the way!
Listen to me, everyone! Stay calm!
Can't you stay calm?
-Stay calm?
-How?
We're like you, salaried employees!
I've never experienced
the frustrations of not getting paid.
And I haven't gotten a raise either!
Nothing's come of all the talk about
a stipend for dangerous duties!
We want to protest at a rally too,
but I'm forced to maintain order here!
You think we're your enemy?
Then why are you stopping
our demonstration?
If you follow the rules
and petition to demonstrate,
we police will even
clear the streets for you!
Hong Kong is supposedly
governed by the law!
What law?
Superficially, everyone is equal.
The duty of the police
is to protect each citizen.
I sympathize
with you chasing your back wages.
But if a rich man makes a call,
we still have to show up.
So my advice to you is to uphold the law!
I don't want anyone to
take advantage of the situation,
cause trouble, damages, and injuries!
If that happens, we have to make arrests!
Do you understand?
Leave immediately!
-Sounds reasonable.
-He's right.
Release the man!
Dismissed!
Wong Yat Fei! You vampire!
Making money off our sweat and blood!
You will come to a bad end!
May your sons be born deformed!
This is a matter between
the contractors and laborers.
Right?
Yes.
Hey, Inspector Chan.
They attacked the police.
You're just going to arrest one man?
Mr. Wong, this a labor dispute.
It has nothing to do with
the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau.
Why don't I call
the Labor Department for you?
That would be unnecessary.
We'll deal with it ourselves.
All would be solved
if he paid their wages.
Release the man.
Attention, troops patrolling above.
We are now leaving the scene.
Continue to monitor the situation.
If the workers return,
send them away.
Don't add to their difficulties.
This guy is a renowned cheapskate.
Yat Fei, I don't feel well.
Have you taken your medicine?
I have.
In that case, why don't you lower
the seat and rest for a bit?
Everyone, let's toast to
Peter, Michael, and David
for getting promoted!
-Hip, hip, hurray!
-Hip, hip, hurray!
We're being tailed.
Yat Fei, stop being so suspicious
and nervous all the time.
-No, I must call the cops.
-Don't call them over the smallest thing.
We're tax-paying citizens.
When there's trouble,
we're entitled to police protection.
Inspector Chan, it's Wong Yat Fei.
Someone's on my tail.
Where are you?
I'm on Peak Road, driving home.
I think it's the kidnappers.
Could it be the workers
wanting to discuss their wages?
Of course not! I've already settled things
with the workers.
Regardless, come here immediately!
No good! He's calling someone.
Forget it! Let's get him!
-It's happening again!
-What's the problem?
Kidnapping!
Don't hit my husband!
Shut up, woman!
Stop! Don't hit my husband!
His wife's here too!
What? His wife's there?
Help!
Shut up!
Why didn't you check first?
What were you thinking?
Boss, what should we do?
How should I know?
Okay, kidnap his wife too!
Be careful! His wife has a weak heart!
If she dies, who do we get the money from?
-Organized Crime.
-Superintendent Cheung.
-Who's speaking?
-Eddie Chan of Special Ops.
Inspector Chan, please verify
your badge number and password.
Can't I just report a crime?
We need the password
to connect the call...
The car coming up behind is a CID car.
James, hold him off!
Euro Boy, get the hostages away quickly!
Don't let him get close!
Organized Crime.
I'm Eddie Chan of Special Operations.
I'm on Peak Road--
Inspector Chan, please verify
your number and password first.
Hello, police station?
I'm an ordinary citizen.
-I want to report a crime.
-Please describe the situation.
I'm on Peak Road. I saw criminals
kidnap a man and drive away.
They're going downhill now.
Please send someone to catch them!
We'll send someone to investigate.
Thank you!
A citizen reported that
he saw criminals kidnap someone
on Peak Road.
PC 48823 responding.
Heading for the scene now.
PC 48262 responding.
Still on our tail?
Quickly shake him off!
If the cop catches us, we're finished!
There's a traffic cop, shake him off!
Stop your car...
We killed a cop!
This is turning into a big mess!
You morons!
I might as well...
Stop your car!
Two cops are injured on Peak Road.
I'm taking one to the hospital now.
The other one's still at the crime scene.
Quickly send someone over!
PC 62129 responding.
I'm now on the way to Peak Road.
I'm here!
We see our target.
Buddy, help clear the traffic
to the Army Hospital.
Attention all units!
The injured cop is bleeding heavily.
Notify off-duty cops
to rush to the Army Hospital
to donate blood for a transfusion.
-Make way!
-Where is the emergency room?
-That way!
-Quick!
Call for a doctor!
Make way!
-Call for a doctor!
-Make way!
Doctor, please save him!
He's lost a lot of blood!
Stop his bleeding first!
Sir, don't go in there!
-You're also bleeding.
-Don't worry about me! Save him!
-Don't worry about me! Save him!
-Okay. Someone's saving him now.
That's my patient.
Let me see what's happening.
Save him...
You can't go in there!
Hey, calm down! Stop his bleeding!
-Save him at all cost!
-Okay. Someone's saving him now.
-Save him!
-Hey!
Calm down!
Steady...
-Stop his bleeding first.
-Inspector Chan...
-Chi Keung's coming through!
-Please make way!
Make way!
Dr. Chan, how is he?
A head wound. A few stitches
and he'll be fine.
Sir!
How are my colleagues?
-Doctors are rescuing them.
-I have to check on them.
Don't move. The wound will reopen.
Get out of my way!
-At least let me remove the needle.
-Eddie!
Let the doctor remove it first.
Do you know you lost a lot of blood too?
-You better rest a while.
-I risked my life out there!
My two colleagues are fighting
for their lives!
You're just working in an office!
What do you know?
You're unfit for duty
in your present state.
You have to take a leave
and let me monitor you.
To you, it's monitoring.
To me, it's suspension of duty!
Your superior wants a report about you.
Look at how tense you are now!
How do you expect me to write it up?
Write whatever you want!
Don't use my superior to pressure me!
Chi Keung!
Chi Keung!
Chi Keung!
Chi Keung!
Chi Keung!
Doctor, I'm Lau Hak Ming's wife!
-Where's my husband? How is he?
-Don't worry, Mrs. Lau.
He's still in surgery. We'll do our best.
Thank you very much, doctor.
Move her to the front
and get him on the boat.
She isn't dead, is she?
-Step on the pedal.
-Okay.
Anything?
Okay.
Let's set sail quickly!
Clean up the surroundings
and push the car into the sea.
Don't call me if it's not urgent.
Yesterday evening, April 16,
at approximately 6:30 p.m.,
Hong Kong real estate developer,
Wong Yat Fei, and his wife
were kidnapped on Peak Road
while on their way home.
Before this, Wong Yat Fei called me
saying he suspects
he's going to be kidnapped.
After the call, I immediately drove
to the scene.
I ran into Wong Yat Fei's kidnappers
on Peak Road.
They drove four separate cars.
Mr. and Mrs. Wong Yat Fei's car
was a cream Mercedes Benz.
I tried to stop them,
but I failed in the end.
In the process, two traffic policemen
were hit by the criminals' cars,
and they were seriously injured.
One of them has already passed away.
They released Mrs. Wong
by Ap Lei Chau's seafront
and demanded that she pays
the ransom in three days.
The ransom demand
is 60 million US dollars.
Sixty million US dollars?
That's 500 million Hong Kong dollars.
Listen up, everyone!
The first step now
is to install bugs
in Mrs. Wong's residence
and her usual haunts to monitor
all calls 24 hours a day,
paying close attention
to all criminal activities.
Second step,
teams one and two of Operations
will do a blanket search
of all possible hideouts
in Hong Kong, Kowloon,
New Territories, and outlying islands.
Third step, find information on all
the top Triad car racers in Hong Kong.
The rest will go to
hostess bars, gambling dens,
drug houses, and love hotels
for surprise searches,
and arrest every possible suspect
for questioning.
Do you understand?
Inspector Hung.
Hey, long time no see.
You're working so late?
Yes, I can't believe I've been called in
at this late hour.
All holidays have been canceled.
Please report back
to your police station immediately.
Yes. There's a case that
requires immediate attention.
These are the names and addresses
of the shops that Mrs. Wong frequents.
Inspector Hung.
Hello!
-This is fine.
-Superintendent Cheung!
You've gained weight
since I saw you a while ago.
I can say the same about you.
Inspector Chan!
Let me introduce you to Inspector Hung.
He cracked
Wong Yat Fei's first kidnapping.
So I invited him to help us out.
Nice to meet you.
I heard from the others that
you were very brave today.
I was just following your example.
Superintendent Cheung, I'm going out
to answer this call.
It may be an informer.
Okay.
Hey, follow up on this for me.
Trouble, Inspector Hung!
There's a mainland gunboat.
It looks like it's approaching us.
What should we do now?
Try your best to evade it!
We're in the middle of the sea.
Where do you expect us to hide?
If you can't evade them, jump overboard!
Use your brains! Just don't
let them see the kidnap victim.
I'm in a meeting at the police station.
Don't bother me anymore.
You won't deal with anything
because you're in a meeting?
Stop the vessel for an inspection!
What are you doing here?
I'm a fisherman, not a smuggler.
I'm going back to Hong Kong
early tomorrow morning.
There's nothing in the hold.
Don't make any more noise,
or I'll drown you!
You've crossed the border.
Return as soon as it's dawn.
Thank you.
Troops dismissed!
The troops are dismissed. Let's go!
Inspector Chan!
Hello?
Mrs. Wong, please.
I am Mrs. Wong.
If you want your husband alive,
withdraw 60 million US dollars
from Chase Manhattan Bank
in Wanchai at 10 a.m. tomorrow.
Wanchai Chase Manhattan Bank at 10 a.m.
I'll call you on your mobile then.
Bring more batteries.
Hello?
Rewind it.
Keep two here to listen to the calls.
Notify the ground troops,
the aerial troops,
the wiretap team, and Operations
to deploy at the bank.
-Operations, copy.
-Lower! More towards me.
Operations, team four and five,
monitor the streets around the bank.
If the criminals call,
immediately report to all units.
-Hello?
-Is this Mrs. Wong?
Yes.
This is the wiretap team calling HQ.
I'm now transmitting to all units
the dialogue between Mrs. Wong
and the criminals.
Have you prepared all
that I requested last night?
I've prepared everything.
I'm on my way to the bank in Central
as you instructed.
I'll be there in five minutes.
Listen carefully, don't go to Central.
Go to the Admiralty branch now.
They changed the meeting point!
Okay, I'll go there now.
Man the original post
in case they go back there.
The rest, come with me.
Calling HQ.
Requesting additional support.
Mobilize all backup personnel
to the area around
the Chase Manhattan Bank
in Admiralty to monitor all activity.
We're heading there now.
Backup ground troops have arrived
at the Chase Manhattan in Admiralty.
Mrs. Wong's car is now at the bridge
in Wanchai, going towards Admiralty.
Hello?
Mrs. Wong, don't ask who I am.
I'll call you later.
Why is he speaking Mandarin?
We traced the first call.
It wasn't from Hong Kong.
Continue the trace.
Trace the Mandarin call.
Mrs. Wong has arrived at the bank,
but not the target.
Go into the bank
and convert the 60 million
into 50 cashier's checks.
Mrs. Wong entered the bank.
I'll be in touch later.
Good morning, Mrs. Wong.
Please withdraw 60 million US dollars
from my account.
-The criminal should show up anytime now.
-What's the situation now?
There's another incoming call.
Mrs. Wong's exiting from a side door.
Go to the United Chinese Bank
three blocks away.
Eddie, Mrs. Wong is now going to
the United Chinese Bank,
the one that's three blocks away.
I've done all that you've asked.
I converted the cashier's checks.
You said to change banks,
and I changed banks.
Can't you let me
speak briefly to my husband?
Mrs. Wong's on the overpass,
walking towards the United Chinese Bank.
Your husband is very safe right now.
As soon as we get the money,
we'll release the hostage.
Don't try any tricks,
or I won't be able to guarantee
your husband's safety.
I won't try anything.
Please don't harm him.
Don't alarm Mrs. Wong in any way.
You're all tailing her too closely.
Move back a few steps.
Not all of you!
Act more natural when tailing her.
I traced the first call from Shenzhen.
Get me the Shenzhen
-Public Security Bureau.
-Yes.
Hello.
Superintendent, we have the Shenzhen
Public Security Bureau on the phone.
Hello, Commissioner Lien,
we have to bother you again.
You're too polite.
We're happy to help in any way.
Beetle, Mrs. Wong has already
entered your monitoring area.
Pay attention to all suspicious-looking
people around Mrs. Wong.
I'll get it.
Hello?
Please tell Superintendent Cheung
that call in Mandarin came from Taiwan.
Okay, thank you.
What's up?
-Have you traced the Mandarin call yet?
-I haven't heard from them yet.
Now, I want you to deposit
the cashier's check
into the United Chinese Bank,
Taipei branch.
-3032-377-068...
-Taipei branch? What account?
3032-377-068...
-And 377-069...
-Key them in.
In case Mrs. Wong comes out
the back again,
those whom she has seen
must change their clothes.
I'm now changing.
Continue to watch Mrs. Wong.
We've traced it. The money has been
deposited in more than ten accounts
in the Taipei branch.
Call Taiwan's National Police.
Hello. Commissioner Shen, please.
Speaking. Is something the matter?
Commissioner Shen.
This is Hong Kong Police OCTB's
Superintendent Cheung calling.
Commissioner Shen, the ransom money
of a kidnapping case has been deposited
into more than ten accounts in
the United Chinese Bank in Taipei.
Could you please look into it
and freeze the money?
Superintendent Cheung,
as the kidnapping didn't happen in Taiwan,
under our laws,
we have no right to interfere
in commercial transactions.
Commissioner Shen, I suspect
that these criminals are terrorists
and will use this money to fund
illegal activities in Taiwan.
Please don't be so impatient.
I'm transferring the funds now.
-Yes...
-We've remitted 30 million.
There's already 30 million.
Keep transferring. Don't fool around
with your husband's life.
Please don't worry. I'm already remitting
the money to you now.
Just release my husband
as soon as you get the money.
The public phone on Meilin Street.
Thank you.
Superintendent Cheung,
we've traced the call from Shenzhen.
Superintendent Cheung.
What's up?
The accounts in Taiwan are listed
under four people's names.
They said they would fax
the details of the accounts to us later.
Eddie, listen up.
Stop Mrs. Wong from remitting more.
Stop her no matter what,
because once all the money is transferred,
I'm afraid we'll lose our connection.
I'm at the bank now.
Sir, you can't enter this area.
OCTB!
-Excuse me. We're CID.
-Excuse me. We're CID.
We're working on a case.
Can't you call back later?
My mobile's battery is dying.
I'll change the battery quickly.
Don't try any tricks.
I'll call you in a minute.
Hey, mister...
-He's looking for me.
-Mrs. Wong,
the police want you to stop remitting.
Mrs. Wong, even after
the criminals receive the money,
they may kill the hostage at
any time for safety's sake.
I don't have any other option.
What do you want me to do?
First you tell me to pay the ransom,
now you tell me not to pay. I don't care!
I'll do anything as long
as I can save my husband!
Mrs. Wong.
We're transferring the fourth remittance.
The amount is 14 million.
Continue the transfer.
Once all the money is remitted to Taiwan,
we'll lose the criminal
and won't solve the case.
I don't care.
As long as my husband comes back.
Solving the case is police business!
Mrs. Wong.
Over the years, there have been 15 cases
where the hostages were killed
even after the ransom was paid.
I don't want your husband
to be the 16th victim.
Do you believe the criminals
or the police?
Stop the remittance.
Mrs. Wong has stopped remitting the money.
Wiretap team, keep up
the 24-hour monitoring.
Ground troops, continue covertly
protecting Mrs. Wong.
Witch! Playing tricks on me!
That way!
Freeze!
Hello...
Superintendent Cheung,
Taiwan has faxed the details
of the account holders.
Yat Fei, what will happen now?
I don't even know if 30 million
is going to save you or not.
-Ask them to help us.
-We have no diplomatic relations
with them,
and there aren't any extradition laws.
The only solution is to send someone over.
But who?
Superintendent Cheung.
I know Taiwan quite well. Why don't I go?
Okay. I'll send someone to assist you.
Do you have to be this nervous?
I've never believed that such
a big piece of metal can fly.
I would be lying
if I said I wasn't afraid.
Why don't you treat this
as an expense-paid trip?
Once we arrive in Taipei,
we'll find a nice hotel,
then have a good meal.
Look at the data.
Any clues about who this man is?
This man is called Simon Ting.
Do you know him?
No. I've never seen him.
I wonder if the Taiwanese
are willing to help or not.
Who cares. As I said,
let's enjoy ourselves for two nights
and consider that mission accomplished.
Sir, there's air turbulence.
Please return to your seat.
I'm CID. I'm interrogating a suspect.
Okay.
-Do you always take things this lightly?
-What's the point of being so serious?
I've given 30 years
to the Royal Police force.
Tell me, what have I received in return?
What are you hoping to get?
I don't know.
I only know that every night,
I wake up from my dreams
feeling that I've let myself down.
When I first came out of the academy,
energetic and enthusiastic,
I was braver than you are now.
-Attention, all passengers,
-When you exchanged gunfire,
-when you shot someone.
-please return to your seats.
-I bet it scared you!
-and fasten your seat belts.
I dare you to deny that!
Sir, it's dangerous if you don't sit down.
I'm used to danger. If it isn't dangerous,
I want my money back.
Take a seat and fasten your seat belt.
Don't be afraid. The air stewardesses
often make a fuss over nothing!
Hey! Are you okay?
Thank you.
Captain Ko, the guns are in here.
Put them away.
-Hello. I'm Eddie Chan.
-Hi.
-Inspector Hung.
-Hi.
May I have the papers?
This way, please.
We don't have diplomatic relations.
We don't have official ties with Interpol.
-So this--
-Captain.
Start the car.
Get in.
This is Caption Ko.
Captain, a report.
There's a group of people
at a house on Huahsi Street.
-One of them looks like Simon Ting.
-Got it.
Thunderbolt team, keep an eye on them.
It's now 6:30.
All teams, meet up at the HQ at seven.
Please get in the car.
Copy, Captain.
Understood.
Form a deployment plan immediately.
You all, return to the HQ first.
-What's the current situation?
-Nothing much.
This is the key to your hotel room.
Deliver the deployment plan
to the Xihua Hotel immediately.
We can only help you
in an unofficial capacity.
You don't have jurisdiction here.
Retire early tonight.
Don't go out in town.
I'll contact you tomorrow.
-See you.
-See you.
Let's go.
Please put these in our room.
Where are we going?
Huahsi Street, didn't you hear them?
-When we get there, then what?
-We'll decide then.
We want to get to Huahsi Street.
We've received the signal.
Don't alert the criminals
to our presence for now. Wait for orders.
-Continue surveilling.
-When you're mobilized,
-And don't alert them.
-be especially careful.
-I understand.
-Don't harm innocent citizens.
Captain, everything is ready.
Have I made myself clear?
Understood!
Let's move!
Stand guard. Some go upstairs.
I'm rich!
Black Dragon, although
the money is in our hands,
what happens now determines
whether we can spend it.
Shut up.
Count carefully!
That idiot was really easy!
Don't be nervous, it's nothing.
What's the matter?
Be quiet. It's all right.
Damn, when you're womanizing,
you give 100 percent,
but when you're working,
you're dragging your feet!
Simon Ting, you're too timid!
We would do better by playing it safe.
We're ready, Thunderbolt team.
Damn!
There are lots of cops outside!
Damn! Hide the money quick!
Get out our weapons!
Hurry up!
Be careful.
-Move faster!
-Quick!
JIN TAIYIN
Go down!
Quick! Let's go!
Stay still!
-There are cops! Damn!
-Let's go!
I'll blow you to bits!
Blow up!
-There are cops! Go that way!
-Hurry up!
Don't move! Stay still!
-Freeze!
-Isn't that Simon Ting?
Hey!
Freeze!
-Stay still!
-Move!
-Go upstairs!
-Move! Faster!
-What is going on?
-Move! Faster!
Let's go this way!
Anymore left? Look around!
Two more.
It's there!
Use them, quickly! Quick!
Blow them to bits!
Go to hell, you motherfucker!
Where shall we go?
That way! Hurry up!
Don't be so desperate. Let's take it slow.
I'll take off eventually.
-Black Dog, kill him!
-Okay!
You don't know the meaning of death!
Kill him!
Go to hell!
Why are you still standing there?
Come and give chase!
Okay! I'm coming!
What should we do?
You! Stand right there!
Go that way!
Hurry up!
They're all cops! What should we do?
Why didn't you tell me about
all this earlier?
I didn't know!
Keep away!
-Think of an idea or we're both done for!
-I'm thinking!
Hey.
If you don't help me,
then I'll spill everything!
He almost dragged me down with him!
Hey! You two, come down here!
NATIONAL POLICE AGENCY
I hope that you cooperate
and tell me the truth.
Why did you chase him?
Why did you have to kill him?
First, he was connected to
a kidnapping case in Hong Kong.
Second, a good citizen can make
a citizen's arrest of a criminal.
It happened too quickly! I just reacted!
Why were you chasing that person?
I didn't want to chase him!
My superior wanted me to chase him!
I already told you.
You don't have jurisdiction here!
You've violated our laws!
You have to write an apology!
No!
My superior has always been
an impulsive kind of guy!
Inspector Chan.
I now formally charge you with
violating our national security law.
We acted impulsively
in our eagerness to crack the case.
We've caused you a lot of trouble.
I'm very sorry. We were wrong.
Why were you chasing that man?
Why did that man die in front of you?
I request that you let me call Hong Kong.
Inspector Hung, thank you
for cooperating with us.
That's what I should do.
Why did you chase that person? Tell me.
What's your relationship with that person?
Tell me now! Was he working
with both of you?
You Hong Kong police have
the most corrupt members, right?
If you don't help me,
then I'll spill everything!
Hong Kong has corrupt police,
so does Taiwan.
What did you say?
You dare insult police in Taiwan?
There are so many Hong Kong
degenerates who break the law,
then come to Taiwan to escape the heat!
If you don't help me,
then I'll spill everything!
Thank you for releasing them.
Don't worry, I'll punish them.
Good, I will give you
a reasonable account.
Okay, thank you, Commissioner Shen.
Immediately search Simon Ting's
Hong Kong office.
Sir.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Despite the mess,
at least we've achieved something.
Sir, who are you here to see?
-CID, we're here to search the place.
-Our boss isn't here.
-Your boss is dead.
-Don't touch anything!
-Don't touch the computers!
-Sit!
It's past visiting hours.
I'm from OCTB, what bed number
is Lau Hak Ming in, please?
Bed number eight.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
HUNG SHING
SIMON TING
Manager, Inspector Chan
is here to see you.
What is it?
I'm Eddie Chan from OCTB.
This is a warrant.
Sir, do you want everything
from one to one hundred?
Hello?
Inspector Hung,
There's an Eddie Chan here to
inspect the data of pagers one to hundred.
Number one to one hundred?
That means he's looking into mine too.
What should we do?
Erase all the data on me.
Don't even leave a word.
Hey, what's wrong with the computer?
You're right. I don't know.
Inspector, you can't mess with it.
Why is this happening?
Inspector Chan, I'm so sorry.
The computers are going haywire again.
GAGA, URGENT MEETING TONIGHSEE YOU AT 369, EURO BOY
It's gone. It's always breaking down.
I want to change them,
but they're out of stock,
so we're just using them for now.
Once the computers are fixed, I might
be able to retrieve the data for you.
Inspector Chan, what are you looking for?
You can tell me.
Maybe I can help you.
If I'm able to help you,
I definitely will.
Inspector Chan.
Hello, Snake Ming.
Do you know of a thug called Euro Boy?
I've never heard of him.
Let me ask around.
Let me know as soon as possible.
Also,
is there a code or slang called 369?
Code 369? What 369?
Never mind.
How many Hostess Clubs are there
in Hong Kong?
There's only one in Tsim Sha Tsui.
Okay. If you find out anything,
call me immediately.
That cop caused us to lose the money
that was in front of us.
Okay, let's make him lose everything then.
He killed Simon Ting.
Let's chop up Wong Yat Fei into bits,
and feed him to the sharks.
We don't have to be so righteous.
Inspector Hung,
why don't you say something?
We can't let go of this.
To begin with, you made two mistakes.
Now that the hostage is at sea,
there's no set position, no target.
That cop isn't a superman.
There's no way that he can just find him.
Although Simon Ting is a goner,
getting a ransom from Taiwan
has proven effective.
After overcoming these two difficulties,
we shouldn't just give up.
As long as the police can't find
the hostage,
we can still pressure his wife.
If she was willing to pay once,
she'll be willing to pay again.
Just wait and see.
Sir,
we've found this photo
at Simon Ting's office.
The Criminal Intelligence Bureau
says it's worth looking into.
Why don't you say something nice
to your wife?
She says she really misses you.
Why don't we record you talking
to prove that you're still alive?
Get up!
Gaga. You're early.
I'm free, so I came early.
May I ask if you are Ms. Gaga?
Yes. Who's asking?
I'm Inspector Chan of OCTB.
It's about Inspector Hung.
Could you cooperate
with our investigation?
Why investigate? Just arrest the fool!
This is Amy.
Inspector Hung, there's an Inspector Chan
from OCTB here to see Gaga.
That fatso, he's bad news!
I know all about the activities!
What do you want to know?
You've come to the right girl!
Gaga, why are you back here so early?
I'm hitting on a guy, okay?
I thought you had a guy already.
That was a cop.
That's right up your alley.
I thought your favorites were cops.
-Bad girls love cops.
-Him?
We'll see.
Gaga is very hard to get.
Inspector, what have you to offer?
I like to chase the difficult ones.
-I bought a pretty dress yesterday...
-Where's Gaga?
Gaga is inside.
You're his woman.
You should know a lot about him.
You think I'm his woman?
Inspector, do you think
you're my man, then?
I heard that he's hanging out with
some really influential people these days.
Really?
What do you want to know?
I'll tell you everything,
and that's a lot!
Have you seen this person?
Up this close?
How am I supposed to see clearly?
Bobo, lure that cop away.
This guy is dead.
If you pronounce his death this quickly,
then you must know him.
Gaga, the boss is looking for you.
I'll see you later, handsome.
You've spilled my drink!
How will you pay for it?
You're wet. Let me wipe you.
Gaga, you have to help me this time.
That kid out there wants to ruin me.
Hey, listen to me!
Whatever he asks about me,
just say absolutely nothing.
Why should I help you?
Who am I to you? We're not married!
All I did was sleep with you!
You've slept with plenty of women!
Is what we have between us
that simple? Really?
Look at this! Read this
before you say anything!
I bought a house on
the Gold Coast of Australia
and I put your name on the deed too.
What else do you want me to do?
I don't care about this!
I'm going to tell him everything!
Gaga, if you tell on me,
I'll be a dead man.
I'm begging you for a favor, okay?
You think you're a big man
because you're a cop?
Apologize!
You want to run away?
Are you okay?
You, don't go!
Inspector, why are you so clumsy?
You're falling all over the place.
Don't be mad.
I'll buy you a drink to make it up to you.
Inspector, I'm very sorry.
-Don't leave!
-Hey.
Either compensate me or apologize!
Move!
You dare disrespect my superior!
Am I nothing to you?
Inspector Chan.
-Gaga, Inspector Chan's looking for you.
-You think we've made up?
You don't have to act like the good guy!
Inspector, why don't I tell you
all his secrets.
This guy, he doesn't close
the door when he goes
to the toilet.
And he doesn't wear underwear.
I know a lot more dirt on him too.
Why don't I tell you back at the station?
I'm going to get my handbag.
Say something nice to your wife!
I can't go on anymore.
Tell her to pay up quickly!
Then we'll release you!
Do you hear me?
Say it!
Okay. Sum Yue, it's Yat Fei.
It's been so long
since we saw each other. But...
You have an ashtray.
Why not put your butts in it?
Inspector Chan, see if this is
the person you're looking for.
I heard that he quit two jobs.
He'll be fleeing to the mainland
tomorrow morning.
From the Kowloon Railway Station.
Thank you. Here.
-Contact me if you have anything.
-Okay.
Wait for me here.
The target has appeared. Get ready.
CID, come on!
CID! Come with us back to the station.
Don't move!
Freeze!
Hold him!
Cops are beating me up!
Take him back! Let's go!
Let me go! Who do you think you are?
Police brutality! Let me go!
Let's go!
I won't walk! I won't go anywhere!
Go help them!
I would rather die!
Take him away first!
Euro Boy, this is the OCTB!
Don't try anything here!
Get away from me! I have something to say!
Let him talk!
Get away from me!
Inspector Chan, I'll spill everything!
I'll be your prosecution witness!
Bring the man and the machine
to the big room!
Back to the big room? You're joking?
What if you beat me to a pulp?
If you have something to say, say it here.
-This man looks like a scumbag.
-Yes.
Give me the key!
That's more like it!
Don't hit his face.
Yes, or else we'll be in trouble.
Let me deal with you!
Attacking a policeman?
-Keep away!
-Inspector Chan, are you okay?
Don't think that cops are a big deal.
Fight me one-on-one!
I'm charging you with another offense!
Destroying government property
without any reason!
Bring him to the big room!
Serves you right, stupid!
You shouldn't play tricks
on Inspector Chan!
You're scared of living?
Phoebe, where's Inspector Chan?
He's inside.
Well, do you want to file a complaint?
Let him sign it.
Sign it quickly!
Inspector Chan, Euro Boy is my informant.
What's his crime?
I suspect he has a hand
in kidnapping Wong Yat Fei.
You idiot! So it was you
who kidnapped Wong Yat Fei!
I didn't.
-Are you accusing us of framing you?
-Yes.
You said yes?
They even beat me up.
You say that they even beat you up?
Do you want to file a complaint?
Do you want a medical examination?
I'm asking if you need
a medical examination?
Yes! I want to file a complaint
that they beat me up!
Don't make things up!
You did beat me up!
Scum!
What are you doing?
Don't! You want to kill the witness?
Scum!
If you were in my hands,
you would be a dead man!
Why don't we take him
to the hospital first?
I still have to interrogate him.
Inspector Chan, you know
that he's my informant.
I should be the one responsible for him.
Now that's he's badly injured--
No! Without my order,
no one may take this man out of this room!
What are you two doing? Come with me now!
Have someone protect him 24 hours a day.
Without my order,
no one takes him anywhere!
Get to your duties immediately!
Go quickly!
Listen up, you two!
There's been a new development
on the Wong Yat Fei case.
According to the Criminal
Intelligence Bureau's report,
we may know the whereabouts
of the hostage. Get going!
According to our investigation,
it's a disused smuggling ship.
People have been seen entering
and exiting.
Eddie and Inspector Hung,
go on board and take a look.
Teams one and two,
search the surrounding islands.
Notify me immediately
if you find anything.
Start the operation immediately!
Start the operation!
-Sir! That door's almost ready.
-Okay.
You two, take a look over there!
-What's going on?
-We're searching over there.
-Over there? That way!
-We've searched already.
Search again! Go on!
Inspector Chan,
we're going to take a look outside.
Okay. I'll be just behind you.
Weren't you with Inspector Chan, 55268?
Inspector Chan went up the chimney.
-Found anything?
-Nothing.
Go on.
We haven't found anything yet.
I'm searching the surrounding islands now.
Notify me if there's anything.
Is anybody here?
Is anybody here?
Hey, is anybody here?
INSPECTOR HUNG KIDNAPPED WONG
Don't try to erase it!
I wrote those words!
Don't move!
It really was you!
Take off your belt!
That's right, I did it.
I respected you.
I've always idolized you!
But you would rather be a criminal!
Inspector Chan, don't get so worked up.
We can take our time and talk it over.
I've been a cop for decades,
I've seen it all.
In this world,
the good guy doesn't get rewarded.
We as cops can be killed any minute.
There's no guarantee for our lives!
Why don't you pretend that
you never saw anything?
I'll give you half my share of the money.
You should be happy then.
Don't move!
I'll pretend I didn't hear that.
I suspect that you're involved with
the kidnapping of Wong Yat Fei.
You may remain silent,
but anything you say may be used
in a court of law against you.
Come over here!
Hold me!
Stay firm on your feet!
You fool!
You won't be able to escape!
Is anybody there?
Is anybody there?
-Calling Superintendent Cheung.
-What happened?
-He just shot me.
-Inspector Chan shot Inspector Hung.
-I think he must be mad!
-Yes.
What? Send him to the hospital first.
Where's Inspector Chan?
Inspector Chan is missing, over.
Find him immediately!
I've argued with him before,
but he shouldn't shoot me
over things like that!
We found him! Inspector Chan is over here!
They found Inspector Chan.
Inspector Chan! Catch!
-Hey, look!
-Someone's in the water!
Superintendent Cheung.
We found Inspector Chan, over.
Where is Inspector Chan?
He's in the sea.
The rescue unit is getting him.
Call an ambulance and send him
for a check-up.
-Hey!
-Hey!
Send someone to stop
Inspector Hung immediately!
Don't worry about me.
Take care of your health, understand?
Otherwise, I will worry.
I dine well and lodge comfortably here.
They have not tortured me either.
That's Mr. Wong's voice.
It's better if you follow
his instructions.
Once they get the money,
they will naturally release the hostage.
We'll then be able
to catch them all in one go!
Inspector Hung is involved
in the kidnapping of Wong Yat Fei.
-Really?
-Superintendent Cheung, arrest him!
If we delay,
Wong Yat Fei will be in danger.
Okay, I understand.
Go get a check-up first.
Superintendent Cheung, I'm fine!
-Get Inspector Hung first!
-Go for a check-up.
-Come to the ambulance.
-Superintendent!
-What are you doing?
-Go with them.
I said I'm fine!
Where's Inspector Hung?
Inspector Hung has gone off somewhere.
What?
If it was me, I'd run away too.
-Why won't you believe me?
-Inspector Chan!
Get Eddie and Inspector Hung
and have them write reports.
Right, the amount is right.
Mrs. Wong, do you want to remit
the money all in one go?
-Yes, hurry up and remit it.
-Okay.
-Hello?
-Inspector Hung,
we found Inspector Chan.
Superintendent Cheung wants you back
at HQ immediately to write a report.
I understand.
Mrs. Wong, something needs my attention.
Excuse me.
Guard this room well.
Don't let anyone else come in.
Okay.
My cover may have been blown,
but I'm not sure.
To be safe, pack up everything,
and I'll see you in 369. That's all.
Hello?
Hello, Mrs. Wong.
This is Eddie Chan from OCTB.
Listen to me.
You can't remit any more money
to the criminals.
I've already remitted everything.
Forget it. Discuss it with Inspector Hung.
Hello?
Excuse me.
-Taxi!
-Taxi!
-Good morning.
-Good morning.
Help me move these in.
Why are you so late today?
Where do you want me to put it?
Give me the Express.
A Sing Pao Daily News.
-Five dollars of noodles.
-Okay.
Yes. Shanghai 369.
Two sticky rice, two soy milk...
Okay. Delivery is on the way.
-What took you so long? Got everything?
-Yes.
If you've got everything, go up first.
Take it up.
Go ahead.
-Anything in the paper?
-No.
Sir, your rice noodles.
-Help yourself to the sauces.
-Okay. Thank you.
OCTB, this is Eddie Chan.
Connect me to Superintendent Cheung.
Sorry.
Yes. I'm now at the criminal's hideout.
It's on Waterloo Road.
Beat him!
Get out our weapons!
-Hey, police station?
-You're calling the police?
This way.
-What now? He's on to us.
-Give me a gun!
Give me a gun!
Halt! Lie down!
Run! Call the police! Run away!
Run away!
What's happening? There's so much smoke!
I don't know,
but I think I heard an explosion.
Hurry up!
It's going to explode!
Get out of here!
Get out of here!
It's going to explode!
-Get out of here!
-My son's still upstairs!
-My son!
-Get out of here!
Don't shoot!
-Chop it open!
-Okay!
-Hurry up!
-Yes!
Let me!
Shit!
Get him!
You damn bastard!
Don't move!
If you move, I'll fire at you!
Don't move! Stand still!
You want to murder me?
I've now lost to you.
You're the big man now.
Don't you know what shame means?
Can you kill all the police in Hong Kong?
You caused one colleague to be killed,
and another is seriously injured!
Because of you, the rest of the police
look like shit! Do you know that?
Have you finished?
You don't understand the agony
I go through as a cop!
I risk my life at every turn!
I work extremely hard,
I get a pitiful salary.
It's barely enough to get by!
If I don't take risks...
if I don't take risks, what am I
supposed to live off later in life?
Where's the hostage?
Are you going to tell me or not? Tell me!
If you have the guts, kill me.
Where's the hostage?
Where's the hostage?
Are you going to tell me or not?
I would rather die than tell you!
You scum! How many people will you kill
before you're willing to give up?
Get up! Let's go!
Mommy!
What are you doing? Where are you going?
Don't be afraid. I will save you.
Hold on tight.
Hey! Open the door!
You're inhuman!
Wait for me here!
I will come back really soon!
Don't move!
Inspector Hung! Wake up!
I know you must think I deserve to die!
The court will decide whether
you should die or not!
Don't save me!
Even if you save me, I won't tell you!
Even if you won't tell me,
I would still save you!
I won't just run away!
No wonder people say that you're crazy!
You're an idiot!
You can say that I'm an idiot!
These are the principles which I live by!
You're crazy!
Don't give up!
You have to use some of your own strength,
do you understand?
Don't save me. It's useless.
You won't be able to drag me out! Go!
Hold on!
I don't want you to die with me!
Go save the kid,
or else you both will die!
I'll get someone to come and save you!
Listen, Fat Kee shrimping boat,
in international waters.
Remember...
Come on!
-My son!
-Mommy!
Thank you, sir.
Give me a phone!
The fishing boat in front!
Stop for an inspection,
or else we'll fire!
You're not answering the phone
at such a critical moment?
Inspector Hung, what's wrong with you?
If they get on board,
they'll see the hostage.
What should we do?
Kidnappers are executed in China.
What shall we do?
Dump him into the sea!
Don't fire, we're stopping the boat!
You would be a satiated ghost.
That's not what I had in mind.
Comrade, we're here to make
the collection.
-Okay.
-Thank you.
Come on.
You've lost weight.
It's cold.
Can we go?
The paperwork is done.
You can leave now.
Commissioner Lien,
thanks for your help. Goodbye
-You're welcome.
-Goodbye.
-Thank you.
-Goodbye.
You deal with filing the case.
Fei, let's get away from Hong Kong.
What do you think?
We have to leave Hong Kong
for a long time and have a good rest.
Okay.
Stop the car.
Thank you, really.
Thank you very much.
