Police Story 2 (1988) Movie Script

1
FAT FRUIT STALL
We may have put Chu Tou behind bars
but the operation was a costly one.
You destroyed the squatter village,
and the Government had
to rehouse the families.
Not to mention the compensations.
During your previous operation,
you damaged the shopping center as well.
We paid over a million
for the chandelier alone.
But the taxpayers know
police work doesn't come cheaply.
But they don't expect to pay for
the cost of someone's heroism.
Why didn't you use the stairs?
Did you have to destroy that chandelier?
Do you always have to be different?
You're right.
The force doesn't need show-offs.
We only need disciplined policemen.
I wasn't expecting a promotion.
Ka-kui, the operation succeeded
through team effort,
not just because of you.
You should be grateful that
we didn't fire you.
And the higher-ups
wanted you to be disciplined
for holding me hostage.
I managed to talk them out of it.
I'm very grateful for that.
I'm worried about your individualism,
you forgot you're just a police officer.
As of today,
you're back in uniform.
You'll be assigned where you're needed.
You mean he will be an errand boy?
I think you'll be very busy.
What else do you do
apart from giving out tickets?
Calling all units,
there's been a serious road accident
at the Industrial Park.
Traffic is brought to a standstill.
All units in the area please respond.
May, go home. I'm on duty now.
Just think of me
as a member of the public
who wants to talk
to a policeman.
About what?
I think you look very smart in uniform.
Stop it, I'm on duty.
I've brought you a cold drink.
Thank you.
Thank you, sir.
I can't drink it.
Have a sip. You dont know
when you can leave.
If I drink that now,
it would drive me to the restroom.
Come on.
May, you're getting me into trouble.
Hello there, hero!
What, they didn't promote you?
You're lucky you're not in jail with Chu.
You think so?
The doctors told me
I only have three months to live.
So they released me to live it out.
Three months will fly past us
before you know it.
But my boss will be sure to outlive you.
Don't you know you're threatening him?
Really? In that case, he can sue me.
Just be careful! Drive on.
Ka-kui?
Ka-Kui, Chu Tou is out of jail.
I know, so?
Glad you knew it.
I'm sure each of us has caught
at least one crook.
We've got nothing to fear.
Just remember,
we've got 250,000 more officers
to back you up.
But Bill, do we really have 250,000 cops?
We are recruiting new blood.
Didn't you read the classifieds?
What are you waiting for?
Back to work, all of you!
Hey, I've talked to Raymond.
You can carry a gun even off-duty.
I had so much fun tonight.
Sure you did.
The movie was great, so was the steak.
But you don't seem very happy.
You think so? On the contrary, I am.
I wish you had enjoyed it
as much as I did.
Are you worried about Chu?
No. I'm just being careful.
-Maybe next week--
-Hey, hero!
Off-duty already?
What are you doing here?
I can park here,
and you can't give me a ticket.
Yeah, you must have a nice view
from the first floor of flat B.
Am I right?
Go upstairs.
How did you find this address?
It's amazing what information
you can get with money.
People will do anything for money,
you know?
What do you mean?
There's a narrow stairwell
in the building.
If there was a fire, it would spread
rapidly through the building.
Because of the narrow access,
the fire brigade couldn't get in here.
Therefore, you better
keep a close eye on her.
If she were to get her pretty ass burnt,
it would ruin her marriage prospects.
Bastard!
Oh, hero, I had so much fun tonight!
Sorry.
It was my fault, really.
A cop like me has many enemies,
putting you in danger.
I'm not scared.
If you dont have any enemies,
that would mean
you couldnt catch a thief.
Could you move elsewhere for a while?
Don't worry about me.
They are just empty vessels.
No, we're out in the open
while they would be sneaking.
All right,
I'll hide at my aunt's for a while.
Don't think about it too much.
But, if you threw a vase onto him
then I would be a goner.
May.
Auntie.
You're on your own? Where's Ka-kui?
He's still on duty.
It's okay, I can manage.
I'm not against you dating a policeman,
but I don't want him to
spend too much time on his work.
He's stubborn, too.
But he's a good policeman.
That's why he has lots of enemies.
And now you have to move home.
I have to be careful.
That way, he won't have to worry about me.
Of course, he should fear for you.
Who are they?
Those bad guys from yesterday.
Looks like your hero isn't around.
Meet me in the restaurant over there.
See you around.
What do you want?
We have a score to settle.
I just want to know
where you're going.
Mind your own business!
You must be her mother. Am I right?
-Bastard!
-You call me a bastard?
Close. I'm the bastard son of a bastard!
-I'm not afraid of you.
-Let's go.
Madam, why has your daughter
fallen for a cop?
I'm so worried about her.
Living on the 19th floor
is dangerous, too.
Even power glue can't save you from
falling from up there.
You're trying to hit me?
Stop...
Get her off me!
-Let me go!
-You bastard!
Don't grab my hair!
That hurts!
You bitch!
Easy, she's just a girl.
Damn you!
If you were a man, you would be dead!
-Let's go!
-I'll be back!
Are you okay?
Ma'am!
It's your job that brings
the bad guys here.
Look what they did to May.
-May.
-I've told you not to be with him.
Did John Koo attack you?
No, I started hitting him first.
He just hit me back.
And they knocked me down.
My backside still hurts.
I can't sit down now.
How did they know you would be here?
They followed her.
That's how.
They're watching us
from across the street.
I wonder what's next.
Ka-kui, don't!
Let him be. He should take care of them.
If only it's that simple,
then I'll be relieved.
Watch it, you fool!
Is roughing up women all you can do?
Roughing up women? It's my favorite hobby.
Hey.
Get the bastard!
You know the law, don't you?
If they did threaten her,
you could arrest them.
I got carried away.
That's not a good reason.
He reacted like anyone else would.
He's a police officer.
What you did was no better than
what a hoodlum would do.
You've disgraced the force.
I don't think so.
If a policeman fails to respond to
a personal threat,
that would be disgraceful to the force
and also the law.
I say, you're nothing but a show-off
just so we wouldn't forget
that you caught Chu.
How can I explain this to the chief?
You don't have to.
I quit.
You think that will solve the problem?
Why not? This is probably
the best solution.
I'll leave now.
Thank you for the support I've had
in the force. Farewell.
Ka-kui.
If that's how it's going to be,
then try to find
a less stressful job. Godspeed.
I will.
You think you can do anything
because you're cops!
Don't you know the law?
You can't beat me up just like that.
Kill me if you can.
Shut up and sign this.
Fuck you! I'm not signing a damn thing!
I'll sue you for every penny you've got.
I've got lots of money! I'll get a lawyer!
I'll drag you all to court!
What?
No!
See? You saw this officer
try to assault me.
He wants to beat me up like before
when he hit me and broke my glasses.
You're all going to pay for that.
You would dare to beat me up here?
Come on! What are you waiting for?
Come on! I'm going to sue you,
you're going to jail!
These youngsters have no patience.
Bill, why didn't you ask him to stay?
You should have said so.
I thought you want him out.
Now I know what this gesture means,
I'll remember it.
Ka-kui, what's the matter?
You don't want me
to be a policeman, do you?
Of course, I do, I'm proud of you.
What do I have after being a cop
for such a long time? Nothing but enemies.
Oh, Ka-kui.
That means you've done your job well.
If a cop has no enemies,
there is only one reason.
He hasn't caught any crooks.
I'm glad they hate you!
It proves that you're a tough cop.
Thanks for that.
But I've had enough.
I resigned today.
Really?
-Are you disappointed?
-You're really quitting?
-I'm so happy!
-Calm down.
What's she doing?
May, I haven't treated you
as well as I should over these years.
I'm sorry about that.
But I've got a three-month break.
Let's go somewhere else to relax!
Ka-kui, you mean it?
-Where to?
-Bali.
That's great!
We haven't traveled for years.
Yeah, let's go.
It feels good to get on the plane.
-That's 5,540 dollars, please.
-Okay.
I'll see you outside.
-Do you accept credit cards?
-Sure.
This is for your reference, sir.
Thanks for coming.
Thank you. Bye.
What clothes should I take?
You won't need any in Bali.
Don't be silly!
I can't believe we're going.
I just hope they won't rip us off.
No, they're a big company.
It's trustworthy.
It's paid for now.
Let's cross our fingers.
Fey!
-Is this your area?
-Yes.
What's up?
We've received a bomb threat in here.
-A bomb?
-Yes. Can you help us out?
-All right, then.
-Thanks.
Ka-kui!
I'll just take a look. It won't take long.
Sun.
Just in time. What's up?
We got a call about a bomb.
Are you sure it's real?
I don't think he was kidding.
He told us to clear the area.
We were given ten minutes.
-Did you tell the manager?
-The manager said he's nuts.
Start clearing the building now.
-There are too many people around here.
-If it's a hoax, who will be to blame?
I'm used to getting an earful.
If it's real, we're all screwed.
He's right.
So what do we do?
Consider it real. Clear the building.
Call headquarters.
Where's the fire alarm?
Over there.
Ka-kui.
We'll go set off the fire alarm. Come on.
-Your truncheon.
-But...
Come on, I'll bear the consequence.
Follow me.
Don't panic. Don't worry.
Come back. I've opened the till already.
Have they paid?
It's fine. Dont run, Miss!
It's nothing.
What should we do?
They're all still fooling around.
Ka-kui!
Don't stay here. Go on!
May I have your attention?
Please evacuate the building immediately.
All retailers and customers,
please evacuate immediately.
-There is a fire in the building.
-Let's go!
Please evacuate immediately.
Whatever it is, deal with it!
Please leave in an orderly manner.
Do not panic.
Be careful!
-What's going on?
-Why is the alarm ringing?
What about our business?
Fey.
-What?
-Sun!
Get them out of here.
This is for your own safety.
Please evacuate now.
-What about you?
-I won't take long. You go first.
Check the building.
What am I going to do after this?
Who's in charge around here?
You talk to them.
Please leave here now,
the police will take care of it.
Ka-kui.
I'm all right. You go home first.
Hello, sir.
Who said there's a bomb?
We received a call saying
there's a bomb at the mall
but we didn't know if it was a hoax.
Who set off the alarm?
It was me, sir.
You may leave.
Why did you do it?
Sir, when I was in the Police Academy,
I was taught that
public safety comes first.
-So I asked the people to leave.
-Do you think you're indispensable?
Sir.
Sir, there's no fire.
But it was your men
who cleared the building.
Right. The Bomb Disposal Unit is coming.
You won't be needed now.
Right. I hope this isn't a hoax.
-Bill.
-So do I.
Raymond. They want to see the head man.
Shall I go?
-Where's the Bomb Disposal Unit?
-On their way.
How could this be now?
Did I do the right thing?
How do I do know? Don't ask me.
With this mess right now,
we have to wait and see.
We'll meet again.
If all is well, you may go back in.
My ball!
-When can we go back in?
-Now what?
Here's your ball.
Ready?
The Bomb Disposal Unit is here.
If they don't find anything,
the boss will blow a fuse.
Bill, I didn't want this.
Who in the world would want this...
Get your hoses out!
Rescue unit, stand by!
Put off the fire!
I suppose the good news
is nobody got hurt.
What are the damages?
The insurance will cover it.
I'm more worried about the damage
to our image.
I've asked the press to cooperate,
and I'm sure they will
keep it low profile.
But who did it and why our company?
It may not be against us.
It could be someone
who's mentally disturbed.
There's a man on the line, sir.
He said he planted the bomb.
Put him through.
-Put him through.
-Hello? Please speak.
Listen, we planted the bomb
in your shopping center.
We want ten million dollars.
Either you pay up or your
other properties will get bombed.
Let me talk to him.
Mister, we can talk this over.
That's a huge amount of money.
We'll need to call a board meeting.
You've got 24 hours.
Don't call the police.
What do we do then?
Must be some hoax.
-That's possible. So what do we do?
-Call the police.
We pay so much tax.
The police should do something for us.
-Call the chief for me.
-Yes.
Raymond, you were extremely lucky.
It's amazing that no one got hurt
in the explosion.
Thank god for that.
And well done on the Chu case.
But it wasn't just me.
That's right.
Raymond, you're being humble.
You should handle this case. Do you agree?
-Sure.
-Of course.
Bill.
This is a very tough case.
That's why they gave it to us.
In our department,
who do you think can solve it?
You're the only one.
Think carefully.
And it's definitely not me.
Maybe we could bring back
somebody who's on leave.
Do you mean somebody like Ka-kui?
He has good experience.
That's a no from me.
He's unorthodox, impulsive.
He will only give us trouble.
I agree he's a little bit rash,
but underneath, he's a good cop.
I won't let him do it.
But if you can bear the consequences,
you can go find him.
Let's see who's the boss.
-Those are our seats.
-Here?
Fasten your seat belt, please.
I forgot the sunscreen.
Buy it when we get there.
Got your passport ready?
-Put out a call for Detective Chan Ka-kui.
-Okay.
Attention, please.
-Paging Mr. Chan Ka-kui.
-Let me see.
-No, don't look!
-It's cute.
It's horrible.
Paging Mr. Chan Ka-kui.
-That's you.
-Yes.
-What's the matter?
-I don't know.
I'll go and check it out.
-Are you Mr. Chan?
-Yes.
There seems to be a problem
with your passport.
-Something's wrong with my passport?
-It will just be a quick check.
What's going on?
I'll be back right away.
Hurry!
So it's you guys.
-Thank you.
-You're welcome.
What is it? I have a plane waiting.
We have a problem.
It seems that the bombing case
has become a blackmail case.
And it's a very tough one.
-So?
-This case is a real challenge.
Raymond was hoping...
I was hoping that you can
cancel your holiday.
No! I've already boarded the plane.
-And I've quit.
-I know how you feel.
You've been under pressure lately.
But ducking out like this?
I'm not ducking out.
He said he's not ducking out!
Raymond is a great admirer of your forte.
I don't have any forte.
I'm just too impulsive.
Impulsive? More like a man of action.
If only I could control my actions.
A true man of action
is one who acts upon instinct.
I think the police force
needs men with discipline.
Instinctive men have to be unconventional,
even at the cost of discipline.
Only the feeble stick to the rules.
Am I right?
Absolutely.
I better get back on board.
You're right.
Goodbye.
How much is the ransom?
Ten million. That's all we know.
Do we have any suspects?
Not a clue.
Do you think these people are insane?
Why are you asking me? I don't know.
Have you traced the dynamite?
Why dynamite?
-Yes. Why?
-It's simple.
Dynamite is a controlled substance
in Hong Kong.
So you either smuggle it in
or steal it from a local company.
He's right. We haven't thought of that.
We must find where they had the bomb made
before the company pays the ransom.
If we do that, we can foil their plans.
See why you can always
solve problems so easily?
You're the one who's made for this case.
-You're responsible for it!
-So it's up to you now.
I've got a plane to catch.
Wait! Ka-kui.
You can go there any time.
This case is a one-off.
Go there next time. Okay?
-I better talk to May first.
-Hurry up, then.
Hurry up.
-Miss!
-Yes, sir?
-My plane...
-It just took off.
It's taken off?
You've missed your flight!
See how they keep on schedule.
I still have May's passport.
Damn! It sure isn't your lucky day!
Bill, we better go.
What's wrong?
I ate something bad.
-That way, sir.
-Thank you.
Excuse me. We're police officers.
We're here to see President Fung.
-He's on the 30th floor.
-Thank you.
Bugging devices.
Illegal bugging?
Nixon lost his job
because of one of these.
If we are to solve the case,
we have to know our targets well.
We're counting on you.
Put them away.
Ms. Wong,
-there are two police officers here.
-Excuse me, where's the toilet?
-On your right.
-Thanks.
Twenty-fifth, please.
Twenty-fourth, please.
Wait!
Bill, I'm really worried about May.
I'll call the Indonesian airport
as soon as I get to the office.
Bill.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Haven't you got any manners?
Let's use the other elevators.
I'm a police officer.
I've informed Ms. Wong.
-If you'll please wait.
-Thank you.
Hello?
Ka-Kui!
Bill.
I've trained you so hard,
why did you have to do it?
Stop making fun of me, okay?
-When did I make fun of you?
-Gentlemen.
I'm Inspector Cheung,
and this is Sergeant Chan.
-We made an appointment--
-Please come with me.
-We're--
-I know. Mr. Fung is busy now
but he's signed the papers.
Excuse me.
-Excuse me, where's the restroom?
-Down the corridor.
-Here.
-I'm so sorry.
It's okay. Where's your friend?
He had a sudden urge.
There's the chairman.
That site is worth three billion.
Mr. Chairman.
Yes?
Officer Chan is here.
Thanks for your cooperation.
You're developing
the new estates very fast.
You may be seated.
A warm welcome to all directors,
managers and heads of departments.
I've called this meeting
to review the performance
of our property portfolio
and to set the sales target
for the next year.
You may all know that
since the collapse of
the stock market last year,
the Hang Seng Index has risen back
to two-thirds its pre-fall level.
Now I would like to show you how
the blue-chip stocks have fared.
However, based on the performance of
the bank and property sectors,
the outlook of the stock market for
the next half year remains uncertain.
In situations like this,
small-time investors are likely
to put their money in real estate.
So we have to accelerate the pace of
developing our new housing estates.
My, you're gorgeous.
Miss, the chairman said someone
will pick up this garment
and ask 500 dollars in ransom from him.
-Really?
-Yes.
What's going on?
It's a meeting.
-Did you plant the bugs?
-Yes.
-And the desk?
-All done.
-Was it easy?
-He wasn't against it.
What did they discuss?
Something about houses.
-Where are you going?
-I'll take the next one.
May's here.
May, you're back!
May.
You scumbag!
Let me explain.
You...
You didn't want me to come back!
You left me there
and took my passport!
When I got to Bali,
I couldn't do anything.
Before I was sent back here,
they detained me for ten hours in a cell!
Why should I keep my voice down?
When you take a dog for a walk,
do you not take it home afterwards?
I was treated even worse than a dog!
May, they're watching us.
What are you staring at?
I'm only talking to him!
It's none of your business!
I want you to tell me in front of everyone
what you think I am.
What the hell do you take me for?
You're my girlfriend!
Your girlfriend? Open up!
Is this how you treat your girlfriend?
You even treat strangers better than me.
I've got news for you...
It's over between us!
Chan Ka-kui, I hate you!
Bill, did you make that call?
I needed to go to the toilet.
You've ruined my life!
-May.
-Take your umbrella away.
Go away, or I'll run you over.
-Go away!
-Try to be reasonable.
Let go of my bag. Go away!
Don't even touch me. Go away!
Leave me alone!
Please let me explain.
We're done here!
-I dont want to see you anymore!
-May!
May, are you all right?
Stay away from me.
Don't touch my motorbike.
Keep away.
-Listen to me!
-I don't want you anywhere near me.
Why won't you help me?
Just keep away from me.
I don't want to see you again.
May!
All right, get back to work.
I want to see Ka-kui.
-Ka-kui!
-Ka-kui, the boss wants to see you.
I'm sorry, sir.
It's all right.
Do you want to call May to explain?
I don't think it would help.
No need to explain to women!
This is how I treat my wife.
If a man's not at home,
it's obvious he's working.
Excuse me, I have to go to the restroom.
Don't take Bill's word for it.
He's a chauvinist.
Go get changed.
May!
May.
We have nothing to say.
I'm leaving.
Can I walk you home?
No thanks.
Hold it right there!
No, I won't.
She's got nothing to do with this.
Get me, it's me you want.
You're in this together.
Don't do it!
Prepare to die!
I really had you going!
I got the both of you!
Ka-kui!
So you can't fight too many guys at once,
can you, hero?
If I knew it was this easy,
I wouldn't have called my men.
I'm flattered.
My boss asked me
to teach you a lesson.
I'm paid to do it.
But I don't need to dirty my hands,
my men can take care of you.
Then get on with it.
We'll give you a chance.
If you apologize to Mr. Ko now,
we won't break both of your legs.
We'll just break one of them.
Cut the crap. Go on, kill me.
Kill a cop? No, I don't think so.
My boss wants to teach you a lesson.
Ripping a few limbs off
should do the trick.
Get him!
Go!
There he is. Beat him up!
Break his limbs!
Go on, finish him off!
After him!
Move over. Let me drive.
I'm going to run over you and crush you.
Spare me! They paid me to do it.
Keep away, or I'll shoot!
-Shoot me!
-I'm going to shoot.
Shoot here!
It wasn't me. I didn't set this up.
Please, I'm not behind this.
Next time, I'll kick your ass.
It wasn't me!
May. Did they hurt you?
I'm all right.
You better be careful.
Why did you chase him? It's dangerous.
I wanted to make things up to you.
If it had been acid in that pistol
and not ink,
I would have been scarred.
Maybe they wanted to distract you
and then kidnap me.
Then what would happen?
Ka-kui, I want my boyfriend to be gentle,
not a savage. Do you understand?
Come in.
"Police detective involved
in park scuffle."
Who was that?
Look!
I'll check out the surveillance team.
SOMEONE WANTS TO MESS
WITH THE SERIOUS CRIME UNI10 MEN WERE FIGHTING IN A PARK
SOME DETECTIVES WERE INVOLVED
It was me. I'm sorry, sir.
I know Chu wants revenge,
but don't take the law
into your own hands.
Sorry, sir.
Anything I can do?
No, thank you. I can cope with it.
I just want them to leave me alone.
All right, but keep your eyes open.
Now we've got a surveillance team
with a strong sense of judgment.
Go and talk to them.
Did he give you an earful? Did he...
Let's go over there.
What's there for him to reprimand
when no one else is looking?
It's your turn.
Big.
How is this possible?
-It's your turn. Come on.
-Damn you.
-Officer Chou.
-Officer Chou.
Let me introduce.
This is Detective Chan Ka-kui.
Detective Ng, Detective Mui.
Hello.
You guys introduce yourselves.
-I'm Sum.
-I'm Kin.
They are the Special Tactics Unit.
Please take a seat.
They are experts in following targets.
Do you guys think that you
will be useful for the case?
Because we don't even know who did it.
That's easy.
As long as you follow anyone suspicious,
then you'll know.
Follow the suspects then we could find
their hiding place for making bombs.
Just follow them during the transaction,
then we could arrest them.
That simple?
-Of course.
-Good.
I like your confidence.
I hope you'll get along well.
Detective Ng,
could I have a word with you?
There will be room for you soon.
Let's go.
Officer Chan.
What did you shake your head for?
That's because you guys are cool!
Hey. Anything yet?
Fung said his shares would go up.
That's hardly relevant.
And his girlfriend is a top model!
I'm not interested.
I'll listen to it. You go call May.
Go on.
Ka-kui! Listen.
Your conditions have been presented
to the board, and they will pay.
No shit. Do you have the money?
It's almost ready.
Ten million dollars is a lot of money.
Trace it.
It's from Tai Po.
-Trace it!
-Got it.
He's in Ting Kok Road.
HQ calling. Do we have any units
at Ting Kok Road, over?
Do we have any units
at Ting Kok Road, over?
This is PC 12674 on Ting Kok Road, over.
PC 12674, check anybody leaving
a phone box in the area.
Roger.
Are you stalling for time?
No, we didn't call the police.
We didn't do anything rash.
Now we want 20 million.
Ten million?
-This amount--
-Find it.
Hello?
-This is PC 12674.
-Anything?
I think I've got a suspect.
Be careful. He's very dangerous.
He could be armed.
-Do not make your presence felt.
-Roger.
Excuse me, you're supposed to use
the pedestrian crossing.
Move along.
Give me a chance, officer.
Can I see your ID?
Calling HQ...
PC 12674, can you hear me?
I repeat. PC 12674, can you hear me?
PC 12674?
There's an officer who needs assistance
in Ting Kok Road.
I'm sorry, I can't recognize him.
It's okay.
You got shot. It wasn't your fault.
How long have you been in uniform?
It has been two months
since I left the academy.
Then you're excused.
Will I get in trouble for losing my gun?
-I'll never get promoted, will I?
-Not necessarily.
It's going to be fine as long as
you learn from experience.
-It happens to every cop.
-It won't happen again.
-I'm sure you can recognize him.
-Of course.
The phone, sir.
I could use someone like you on my team.
-Thank you. Can you file this for me?
-Yes.
-Who's speaking?
-It's Joker.
-Go ahead.
-We got news.
What news?
A guy called Crazy Fai sells dynamite.
See you at Neptune Bar at 9:00 p.m.
-Do you know what we'll do next?
-No.
Are you Fai? I want to talk.
Do I know you?
No, but you will.
All right. Let's go over there.
Take your time.
What's your name?
Lo Cho Luk. What do you want?
I want to buy some explosives.
-Explosives?
-Yes, my friends introduced you to me.
-What are they for?
-Fishing.
You don't look like a fisherman.
What if I told you it was for business?
I'll give you a good price.
What do you say?
All right, I need to speak to someone.
It's not my stuff.
-Please wait.
-Thank you.
Sorry, he's out of stock
but he'll call me back.
Stay here, I'll be back
once I finish my meal.
-Just a moment.
-Okay.
Hey, you. Stand up.
What's the matter?
CID. On your feet.
-Hands up.
-I only came for a drink.
A drink?
We heard you were dealing contraband.
Eyes front.
Hold it.
Throw me your gun. Quick!
Stand over there.
Easy. Don't do anything stupid.
Come on. Move. Come out here!
Move aside!
You screwed me over. You bastard!
You don't have to sell...
Help!
Stop it!
You're killing me.
-Why did you set me up?
-To make sure you weren't a spy.
That's why I called the cops to prove it.
I can get what you need.
Where is it?
Have you got the money?
Now, I can get you the stuff.
Keep a lookout.
Is it good stuff?
It's from the quarries. What do you say?
Got any more?
Yes, plenty.
There's enough to blow up
the Empire State Building.
I just met him!
I've never seen him before!
Do you think you can get away?
Have a cup of coffee.
A cigarette?
Two spoons of sugar?
Yes.
I hope it's not too cold for you.
No, it's fine with me.
If I were to be interrogated like this,
I wouldn't bother to answer.
You seem comfortable.
Then should you cooperate with us now?
Cooperate?
You're killing me here.
If you cooperate,
you can walk out of here.
We will keep everything secret.
If needed, we will keep you
under protection.
If you three could protect me
for my whole life,
then I would consider it.
Don't talk that way.
Even if we release you now,
after you get out of here,
we'll get someone to do
a drug search on you.
Or get a few young girls
to accuse you of raping them.
Are you sure you can get
any intel like this?
Sure. It never fails.
Stop it. Are you trying to frame me?
I've seen a lot worse than this.
But I would love to flirt with you girls.
You don't have to
turn against me so fast...
Have you not seen girls hit people before?
Girls, please stop!
Please, no!
You've seen worse than this?
Aren't you going to play along?
I'll sue you, bitches!
Say that again, and I'll shoot you
and call this an accident.
No one will pity a person like you.
Yes. Someone snatched the gun!
No! I'll talk.
You should have said that earlier.
Come and have a cup of coffee.
-Come on, sit down.
-It's okay.
There are men in here.
The show is over.
I sold some explosives
to three persons recently.
The first buyer was a fisherman.
I've known him for a long time.
He used them to blast reef fish.
The second one would buy my stuff
to refill empty bullet shell cases
and resell them as bullets.
But he had only sold a few.
The third guy's name was Polar Bear.
He's a big-time dealer.
Maybe he wants to earn a lot.
He often hangs out
at a shop in Tsim Sha Tsui.
Taxi!
Target on a taxi.
It's BP 5608.
Do you copy, Big Mouth?
Taxi with the license plate BP 5608.
Heading north to Cox Road.
Big Mouth copied. I see target BP 5608.
Turning to Tsim Sha Tsui metro station.
Surveillance team, do you copy?
We have a new lead.
Get to Tsim Sha Tsui metro station.
Follow them to the metro.
Target is on the metro
heading to Kung Tong.
Copied.
Go keep guard over there.
Target is off the metro.
Target took a taxi, license plate CW 721,
heading to Industrial area.
Target is off the car.
Heading to Yat Sing Street.
Copied. Over. Sum, your team
will leave first.
Car to Yat Sing Street.
Start supervision. Wait for orders.
Copied.
I'll take a look.
Pal, where is Pak Lok Street?
-I don't know.
-Thanks.
Someone carrying two bags
is heading your way.
Polar Bear.
You went shopping?
-Are you being followed?
-No. But I'm not sure about you.
Come on. Open up.
There are three of them.
Detective Chan, it's him.
I'm sure they're behind this.
There are three voices.
Turn up the volume, let me hear it.
Boss, let's just cut to the chase.
Did you collect the money?
Yes, I did.
Then, I have to make a call.
All clear? There better not be any bugs.
Find a place in Tsim Sha Tsui,
and everything is fine.
Let's not waste any more time. Get going.
There are three people.
-They're coming out.
-Roger!
-You don't deserve this.
-It's you who doesn't deserve it.
Take down the license plate
and follow the van.
-You stay here, I'll go and take a look.
-Okay.
Get ready. Let's go.
Let's get moving.
They stopped the car.
Get in the car!
They noticed us.
-Where are you going?
-To take a look.
-Be careful.
-I know.
I see.
Detective Chan,
they've shaken off our unit.
It's okay, they will come back.
Call them off.
Call them off.
-Don't shoot! It's me!
-Be quiet.
-You scared me.
-I fell over. Someone's up there.
-Hold it!
-Hold it!
Turn around.
Police! Who are you?
The guy must be deaf and dumb.
Hey.
Did you see three men come through here
a few hours ago?
You ask him.
Do you work here?
Do you sleep here?
I can't deal with him.
I can't understand him.
You handle him.
Take him to the station.
It's okay. You're coming with me,
just for questioning.
Come, it won't cost anything.
No need to cuff him.
Hey.
What do you want this stuff for?
He's deaf.
Are all these toys in here yours?
-Stop!
-He can't hear you.
After him!
-Officer! Are you all right?
-Officer!
There's a deaf-mute running around,
find him.
Right!
-I didn't know he could fight.
-Neither did I. Go and find my gun.
If everything goes smoothly
in buying out the Indian Ocean Bank,
it will be a welcome addition
to our portfolio.
Mr. Fung, you have a call.
I said no calls.
I know, but it's that man again.
Jimmy.
Excuse me.
You took us for fools.
You called the cops.
No, you must be mistaken.
We didn't call the cops.
Cut the crap.
We knew you would call the cops.
So tomorrow at 12 noon,
we'll show you what we can do
so you would give up.
We're not going to waste time
bargaining with you anymore.
If you agree to pay 20 million dollars
tomorrow after 12 noon,
I'll publish an ad on your behalf in one
of the top newspapers the morning after.
Call Commissioner Lam.
If you agree to pay 20 million dollars
tomorrow after 12 noon,
I'll publish an ad on your behalf in one
of the top newspapers the morning after.
Replay.
Where was the call from?
It was a modified mobile phone,
so we couldn't trace it.
We knew you would call the cops.
So tomorrow at 12 noon,
we'll show you what we can do
so you would give up.
We're not going to waste time
bargaining with you anymore.
Don't worry, they're bluffing.
We've sent extra officers
to protect your building.
You'll be fine.
Listen,
this blackmail has gone on long enough.
It's time to act.
Yes, sir!
Fey, long time no see.
It's you, Polar Bear.
This is Ken. He would like to talk to you.
I didn't rat you out!
You didn't? Then why
did they turn up after you got caught?
Why did they let you go so easily?
Because they couldn't keep me
with no evidence.
I didn't rat you out, I swear!
-That doesn't make any difference.
-Where are we going?
There's only one place.
-Ms. Wong.
-What is it?
We've checked the mail.
-Thank you.
-And these are for you.
-Who sent that?
-Beats me.
Maybe it's someone special.
If you don't know, who would?
Thank you.
Plant this bomb for us somewhere,
and we're even.
Hey...
Do the job, or you're finished.
-Where do I plant it?
-I'll tell you in good time.
Move it.
Roger. Remain on standby.
Standing by.
Police. What do you have there?
Police.
-ID, please?
-CID. What do you have there?
-What did you get?
-Nothing.
Nothing.
Excuse me, I'm from the CID.
May I look at your bag?
What do you want now?
-The mall is clear for now.
-You got it.
CID. What do you have there?
The next one.
CID. I need to see your bag.
What is he looking for?
The red bag.
Sir, I'm from the CID.
Make it quick.
-There should be no problem.
-Mr. Fung, I've checked all the mail.
Roger.
Do you think it's a bluff?
I hope so, but we can't be sure.
Okay, keep in touch.
Got it.
Hello?
Tell her he's coming.
Roger.
Ka-kui, May's downstairs.
She wants to talk to you urgently.
Got it. Thanks.
May.
What's the matter?
I've written a letter for you. Bye.
May. You came all the way to give me this?
It's important, so keep it safe.
By the way, where's your scooter?
It didn't go well with me, so I sold it.
I'll follow her.
I have my backup units in position.
Yes.
Relax. I think they're bluffing.
-It's all up to the police now.
-Yes.
What's going on?
-Call an ambulance.
-Yes, sir!
Get the fire extinguisher.
Call Commissioner Lam!
How could this happen?
Get to the bottom of this now!
-Calm down.
-Don't panic!
-Ka-kui, follow me!
-Yes!
Call the fire department. Come on!
Where's the fire extinguisher?
Put the fire out first!
Come on, get moving!
Call the firefighters!
We need more help!
-The phone, sir.
-Bill, you take the call.
Ka-kui, meet me upstairs.
I thought you were supposed to protect us!
Yes.
What's the matter?
It was a parcel bomb.
Ms. Wong lost an arm.
THE REAL ESTATE GROUP
AND EVERY SINGLE CITIZEN OF HONG KONG
FOR A BETTER FUTURE FOR THE CITY
How's Ms. Wong?
She's doing well.
The doctor said her arm would recover.
They'll do a skin graft on her face later.
So we'll wait and see.
Wong has decided to pay up.
What am I going to tell Raymond?
Bill, none of us wanted this,
but that's the way it goes.
We're dealing with
an organized bunch of criminals here.
I wish they had blown me up instead.
I don't like putting lives at risk.
If they come and collect the money,
I'm sure we'll get them.
If I pass on what you said to Raymond,
he will not be happy at all.
All this is talk.
What we need is real action.
They've decided to pay.
What am I going to tell the higher-ups?
What else can be said?
Nobody wants that to happen.
That's the way it goes.
We're dealing with
an organized bunch of criminals here.
I wish they had blown me up instead.
I don't like putting lives at risk.
If they come and collect the money,
I'm sure we'll get them.
All you do is talk. Where's the action?
Something's up. Raymond's in trouble.
Nobody wants this to happen.
But that's the way it goes.
We're dealing with
an organized bunch of criminals here.
I wish they had blown me up instead.
I don't like putting lives at risk.
If they come and collect the money,
I'm sure we'll get them.
I understand your situation,
and I'll take this down on the report.
Let's hope you could solve this case
as soon as possible.
Come with me.
Why are you pulling that face?
Did you two have a fight?
Right! But that will be the last time.
Hey!
Hello? Yes, I'll get him on the line.
Hold this.
Ka-kui, your phone.
-Put it through.
-Right.
Hey, put it through.
-Hello.
-Ka-kui. May's been kidnapped!
When?
When we just left the shop,
someone whisked her into a van.
Who did it?
I don't know. But it must be
something to do with you.
Could it be those thugs again?
Chu Tou.
Ka-kui, Hello?
-Ka-kui, what's up?
-May was kidnapped.
-That bastard Chu Tou!
-Ka-kui!
-What's with him?
-His girlfriend got kidnapped.
Don't play dead on me!
Sign this check before you go kaput.
-We-- Let me finish.
-Please stop. He's a patient.
We did what you asked.
That's why we deserve something.
You won't need any money when you're dead.
Chu Tou!
Chu Tou!
Hey!
Chu Tou!
-Where is May?
-I didn't do anything. It's him.
Where the hell is May?
Stop it! He's sick.
Put him down.
-Where did you take her?
-I didn't take her.
-Who did then?
-I asked him to take care of you.
But now, I'm sick and penniless.
Why would I take her?
He's got no money now.
It's not our fault.
It's just him who made
your life miserable.
We did his bidding just for the money.
Then who could it be?
There's a phone over there.
Don't die before you sign this!
-Sign this check before you die.
-You!
I'm not done with you yet!
He's nearly dead, so I don't care.
If not, maybe I will.
-Who called 1478?
-Ka-kui!
May!
You recognize her voice.
We're at the Hung Fung
Industrial Building.
Who is this? What do you want?
Come here alone, or she's dead.
Hello?
Hello?
I know where it is.
Hey.
May!
Are you all right?
Shut up!
-Are you all right?
-I'm okay.
Why did you kidnap her?
"Ka-kui, by the time
you read this letter--"
Don't read it!
-"I don't think I'll see you again."
-I said, don't read it!
"I've decided we should part."
It's a love letter!
Now your mate is gone
There goes your brood
-There's more.
-You bastards!
"When we met, I thought you liked
your job very much
and you would be my Mr. Right.
Now, I realize the only thing
that matters in your life is your work.
I tell myself that what made me
fall in love with you
is also what made me want to leave you."
Yes, why? Why did you break up?
"You told me that
you didn't want me
to get involved with your work,
but I didn't mind.
You didn't spend enough time with me.
Being with you
was the happiest time in my life.
But when you weren't there,
it was the worst time of my life."
That's not right.
"If I didn't leave you,
I would spend my life waiting
for you to come home..."
Please stop!
She's crying!
So is he.
Keep reading, go on.
"...because you can never stop
being a policeman."
A policeman who never stops?
That's where our troubles come in.
"It would hurt me only once
to part with you.
Please forgive me for making
such a selfish choice. Love, May."
What do you want?
We want you to help us get rich.
You know that blackmail is our game.
And the hardest part is to get the money.
You'll collect the ransom for us.
I won't!
You don't have a choice.
Bee, he said he won't.
I think you'll enjoy this.
Don't!
Stop it! Please!
Stop it!
Please stop it!
Ka-kui, are you hurt?
I'm okay.
So you want to play the hero?
Now, it's your turn.
Please don't!
You bastards!
Nice one!
-Kill me if you dare!
-You're quite tough!
Really? Let's see if his girl
is tough, too.
What's that?
Enough! Stop!
Does that mean you'll do it?
Just let her go. I'll do anything.
You're willing to do anything for her.
We won't let her go.
What do you want me to do?
If you collect the money for us,
we'll release her immediately.
You have no choice.
I'll do it.
Very good.
Don't you dare remove it.
Break one wire and the whole thing blows.
The same thing happens
if I press this button.
From now on, you'll have to be careful.
Ka-kui.
Be careful.
I'll come back for you.
How's it going?
-He's on the line.
-Trace the call.
I'll get Bill.
Is the money ready?
We'll collect it in ten minutes.
It's ready.
-Did you call the cops?
-No.
-Where's Ka-kui?
-I can't find him.
It can't be. How could he be
so irresponsible at a time like this?
Let's not wait. Listen up!
Don't take risks until we know
the situation!
Come with me!
You'll have ten minutes
to get back here again.
No tricks.
If we don't get our money,
your vest will explode!
We'll be waiting.
Get going.
Good luck.
-Excuse me, gentlemen--
-We're here for an investigation.
-Mr. Fung.
-Chairman.
So you've decided to pay?
How did you know?
Come and take your seats.
You promised to let us bug you.
Even if not under your name,
we still could check it.
It seems you weren't competent
in the bomb case.
We have everything set up.
Once they get the money, we'll act.
I hope you wont do anything
to make anything worse.
Sure, that would encourage the bombers.
Since the police couldnt help,
we could only depend on ourselves.
Ka-kui is back!
Ka-kui!
Ka-kui?
-Ka-kui!
-Go away!
-Ka-kui!
-Out of my way!
Let me go!
-Hey!
-Ka-kui!
Excuse me, sir...
Ka-kui.
-Ka-kui, where have you been?
-Don't ask.
I'm here to collect the money.
-You're here to collect money?
-Is he your man?
Yes, he is.
Ka-kui, what's going on?
I don't have much time. The money, now!
-What are you doing?
-I don't care what's going on.
Make a move, and I'll shoot you.
Don't pull the trigger.
Raymond, don't!
Don't push me.
If you shoot me,
you and Bill will die.
Everyone will perish!
If one wire breaks,
the whole thing will explode.
Ka-kui, what happened to you? Stay calm.
We can work this out, okay?
If I don't leave in ten minutes,
it will go off.
I don't have time!
Let him go.
Attention all units, don't stop Ka-kui.
Go away!
Dont follow me.
-Hey!
-Ka-kui!
-I think he did it.
-Great.
It looks like he is being followed.
Tell him to move up.
Give me the money.
I'm being followed.
Let me shake them off first.
Trust me.
Are the cops behind us?
Stay back! Don't come near.
Why did you stop here?
What do you want? What's the matter?
A bomb's about to blow. Run!
A bomb! Run!
-There are no cops!
-That bastard fooled us!
-I'll blow him to bits.
-Wait! What about the money?
And you can't get a radio signal
in the tunnel.
What now?
-We've got the girl. Leave him.
-Let's go.
Maybe we should split up.
Keep waiting.
Kill her if it goes wrong.
Where is May?
Where is she?
Look, he's back.
I told you he wouldn't play tricks on us.
May!
Quiet.
Freeze! You're under arrest.
Under arrest?
How are you going to arrest me?
Come on then, arrest us.
Don't move.
You will each get a bullet from me!
You think so?
You would have to shoot fast.
There are three of us.
Think about it. If I arrest you,
you'll only spend years in jail.
And then you'll be a reformed person.
That's better than dying
in this condition.
Better dying young than dying poor.
We are ready.
We want to be rich.
It's okay to be rich,
but you're doing it the cruel way.
What do you mean by cruel?
In this society, only if you do
something good to the society,
everyone will repay your deeds.
Then you will be rich.
That's only if you have a conscience.
Yet, now what you have done
poses a danger to everyone.
It's a disservice to society!
Disservice? What does that mean?
Look at yourselves. Who would think
you're doing the right thing?
Who would want you to get what you want?
What wise words.
And here lies the issue.
Every word you said counts.
We might take your advice
if we have the chance.
So we cannot be jailed and punished.
Don't push me!
Run! It's going to blow!
-May!
-Ka-kui, I'm over here!
May, are you all right?
Ka-kui, be careful!
Good work!
Ka-kui! Come here!
There's a conveyor here.
There's an exit.
May, you go first.
It looks too high.
-Just slide down.
-Okay.
Ka-kui, are you all right?
I'm fine. Get out of here, May.
As far as you can.
You be careful too!
Daddy?
Daddy?
Daddy?
Let's see if it's daddy or mommy!
Daddy...
-Daddy...
-Daddy?
Daddy...
Daddy!
Daddy...
This is bad.
Stop crying, okay?
Look, the fireworks are beautiful.
