Original subtitles

Do you have this? It looks like a good one.

Buy it then.

Hey, can I use the phone?

Over there.

Hey, this one's a bargain.

So tiny, it's gross. How can I wear this?

All your boyfriends would love it.

You're crazy.

Hello. Can I speak to Inspector Lau Ting-Kwong, please?

Yes. Thank you.

- Hey, Low-Life Wah. - What a coincidence.

- Calling the police? - Stop joking.

Hey, Chun, this is Wah--

- Hey! What is it? - Don't move!

- Don't move. - Let go of me!

You ratted us out like a snitch?

Trying to run?

Don't run!

Come back!

What are you looking at?

Get a move on! Don't just stand here.

Stay back. Don't push.

Stand back!

Inspector Lau.

Don't interrupt our work.

The victim is Chan Kam-Wah, nicknamed Low-Life Wah.

He was stabbed seven times and bled to death.

He was making a phone call from a shop

when three men suddenly attacked him.

We're taking a statement from the shopkeeper.

I told you I couldn't see their faces.

Then how do you know there were three thugs?

They were stabbing, and it was chaotic. How could I be sure?

- What were you doing then? - Packing things here.

Packing while they were stabbing?

What? Their stabbing had nothing to do with me packing things.

What's wrong with that?

I believe what he said, that he didn't see anything.

All of this is evidence. Call a police car and take it all back.

- Yes, sir! - What kind of prank is this?

Take it all back!

Hey, buddy. Can't you be gentle with the dead?

All right.

Fetch Ko Chow for me.

Since we are all here, let's drink to it.

- How many, sir? - Cheers.

Hey, Brother Chow.

Do you have a reservation?

Take your hand off.

Don't you want to keep it?

Can't you see my friend there?

Brother Chow.

- Where's Hung? - Over there.

Brother Chow, are you going to make a scene?

This is Boss Kui's turf. It's not worth it.

What a big mouth! Just shut up!

Go.

Hung, I've decided to divorce my wife for you.

She's only after my money.

I don't mind how much.

I just want to be with you. Hung, promise me.

What does this mean? Trying to ignore me?

Hey...

I waited two and a half hours at the Black Swan.

You should've told me if you weren't coming, lady.

I want you to leave right now.

Are you blind? Can't you see I'm talking to my wife?

Hey, who's your wife?

Even if you want to embarrass me,

you shouldn't pick a roasted pig like him.

- Stop insulting people! - Will you be hurt if I do?

Nonsense.

Go and find your Lily.

Nothing happened between me and Lily that night.

It's none of my business.

I've asked her to come and explain to you.

Not interested.

Just because I slept with other women,

you do the same to get your revenge?

She licked my entire body. Can you do that?

Ko Chow, trying to make a scene?

Happy?

Let's go.

Are you asking for it?

I'll wait for you outside.

Hey! I don't want to see you tonight. Okay?

No problem.

Hey, Lily. Why are you in a hurry?

Do you know Mr. Cho?

When Hung comes out, explain it to her.

Explain what?

Why did you call me to your house that night?

I don't know. If you need someone to explain,

find Mr. Cho.

What? Hey, Lily, don't go.

Right, Ko Chow! Stand right there.

Stand still!

Hey, Lily, don't go!

I had nothing to do with it! He asked me to call you!

- Stay still! - Bastard.

Stand still! Don't move!

Stay still!

You are under arrest. We have reason to believe that you're--

Let go of me! Let go!

Go to hell!

Move over!

Ko Chow!

You tricked me?

Don't move!

Go eat shit!

Assault isn't a big deal.

We're not arresting you for that.

We have reason to believe that you're linked to a murder case.

Come with us!

Move!

Move!

Hey, it's all right.

It's all right!

Sir, don't pull too hard. This hand belongs to me.

Get in!

Sir, why did you bring me here to the morgue?

Shut up and keep moving!

Inspector Lau,

we arrested him in the bar.

He was assaulting someone.

Bring him in.

Go!

Uncle Kwong, what kind of prank is this?

You never return my calls.

How else am I supposed to find you? Come here.

You knew him, right?

Oh, that's Low-Life Wah. When did he die?

Be serious.

Do you know about his background?

He's a typical hoodlum, involved in whoring and gambling.

He owed a few loan sharks and couldn't get away.

He deserved to die.

That means you didn't know him very well.

He was an undercover agent just like you.

He was a police officer.

He joined the force much earlier than you.

He was investigating a criminal syndicate recently.

They were planning to rob a jewelry workshop.

He called me tonight.

Perhaps he had some information.

He couldn't get a hold of me. Then he was stabbed to death.

I believe it has something to do with the same gang.

Chow...

I want you to follow up on Low-Life Wah's lead.

Uncle Kwong, I've handed in my resignation.

I didn't receive it.

I don't want to do it.

You're the only one who knows the people around Low-Life Wah.

So it has got to be you.

Find out what you can right away.

I think they will strike soon.

After that case with Brother Shing,

I've made it clear to you:

I don't want to be an undercover agent again.

You set the scoop, I arrested him. What's wrong?

I had to betray a friend!

That Shing was scum!

A drug dealer and a loan shark.

You know how many people he harmed?

As an officer, you should be dedicated to your duties!

Dedicated to my duties?

I was disloyal to my friends!

Shing and I had been through a lot.

Did you know he was stabbed twice because of me?

You wouldn't understand the bond between us, Uncle Kwong.

I really don't want to be an undercover agent again.

Just let me go, okay?

You haven't visited your grandma in a long time.

Chow, I can't believe it was you who betrayed me.

I will not rest in peace!

Brother Shing!

The cops are here. Get going!

- Get going! - Come on, run!

- Run! - Get out of my way!

Hurry up!

- Skinny, go get some takeout. - Okay.

- Hey, stay calm. - Yes, Brother Fu.

Fu, keep a close eye on those monkeys.

Don't fire unless you have to.

We don't want to leave any loose ends.

Don't worry.

- Brother Fu. - Brother Fu.

- Are you ready? - More than ready.

Shame about this old gun. The handling isn't great.

Put it away for now. Your face alone is scary enough.

Get out of the car.

Come here.

- You keep watching around. - Yes.

What's the matter?

MANAGEMENT OFFICE

Hey, wait! Wait!

Would it kill you to wait a bit?

- What's going on? - Don't make a sound!

Get inside!

Robbery!

Don't move!

Robbery! Don't move! Robbery!

Lean against the wall! Come out! Go!

- Come out! - Hurry up!

Get on with it!

Stand against the wall! Go!

Stand against the wall! That way!

Turn your face! What are you looking at?

Don't move!

Don't move or I'll kill you. Nobody move!

- What is it? - Robbery!

Nobody moves!

Open the door!

Trying to escape?

Where are you trying to go? Want to escape?

Don't come any closer!

Stand up!

Come over here! Open the safe!

Playing dead? Trying to pretend? Want to play dead?

Don't come near me!

Stop! You might kill him!

Damn it! Don't beat him! Stop!

Get off me!

Don't!

- You'll kill him! - Don't hold me back!

Stop!

What's happening inside?

Boss, two of them are fighting.

Go to hell!

Stop fighting!

- Stand back. - Do you want to die?

Hey, have you two gone crazy? Get out!

Get out!

- Done with the safe yet? - This old guy wouldn't open it.

Do as I say, and you'll be fine.

What's the combination? Tell me now!

You won't tell?

Go to hell!

What's the number? Say it!

Left 30... right... 17...

Left... 15...

Take care of it.

Miss, see if he needs anything.

Sir, are you all right?

Open the door!

Tell them to hurry!

Robbery! There's a robbery!

Help! There's a robbery!

Robbery! Officer, there's a robbery!

It's upstairs! There are a few of them!

Calm down.

Boss Nam, looks like something's wrong up there. What now?

- Where? - Quickly! Come, over here.

Calling the station.

Hey, something's wrong. Don't go upstairs.

PC 2697 calling headquarters. Do you copy?

Please send backup to Cheung Kong Commercial Building.

I'll go up with Chan to take a look first. That's it, over.

- Ahh... Sir! - Stand aside!

- Don't move! - Stay still!

- Don't shoot! - Shut up, bitch!

Don't move!

Someone's been shot dead!

Run, run! Leave quickly!

Run quickly! Someone's been killed!

Run quickly! Run!

- How're they doing? - Still up there.

- Out of my way! - Run!

Boss Nam, Boss Fu, I'll go first.

Damn you, Skinny. I'll kill you if you leave! Sit down!

Help! Help!

Run!

- Fu, get in the car. Let's go. - They're still up there!

- Stop! - Stop!

Are you all right?

Let's go now! Get in the car!

Start the car. Quick!

Why didn't this gun work? Why?

Fire! Hurry up and run!

- Quick, put it out! - Quick!

- It's a big fire! - Stay out of the way.

Stay back!

- Move out of the way! - Stay back!

Inspector Lau, Chief Inspector Chow is here. He's over there.

- Chief Inspector Chow. - What's the situation?

There were six thieves. They disarmed the alarm in the lobby.

Then they robbed Wing Hang Jewelry on the 13th floor.

They took $1.2 million worth of jewelry.

They had two guns and acted fast.

Shots were fired.

They're a gang of organized thieves,

not your ordinary thugs.

No exaggeration?

Any leads to crack the case?

We've found a few shells and a lighter.

Any witnesses?

Were there any?

The thieves were all masked.

Someone saw one of them in a brown jacket

with dark sunglasses.

I've asked for a sketch.

John, what do you think?

Not much on the scene but rest assured,

I'll crack the case quickly.

Uncle Lau, be calm. I'll sort it out.

Kid, which district do you cover?

Lau, I transferred John from headquarters. You've met before.

I don't recognize him.

- Uncle Lau-- - Inspector Lau to you.

Just tried to address you out of respect for your old age.

Lau...

I've asked John to set up a special team

to help crack the case.

There have been many big cases here. I just want to help.

Chief Inspector,

what I need now is all the information

and clues from Uncle Lau.

From now on, you two will work as a team, okay?

Yes, sir!

Yes, sir.

Lau...

I know you've been very helpful to me and you know me well.

Now, I'll wait for your report at the police station, okay?

Yes, sir.

These new shoes are too tight.

- Honey... - Who is it?

- Oh, it's you? - It's you?

How dare you grope me?

What are you doing here?

Waiting for you to come home.

- Hey, they're very firm. - Of course. I exercise every day.

I thought you got fondled a lot!

Go to hell!

Da... da... darling!

You want to kick me to death?

Don't light it if you don't want to.

All right, I'll light it then.

You're such a jerk!

That really hurt!

Where were you tonight?

On a date!

With Mr. Cho?

That's right.

No problem.

Hey. Where are you going?

- The bathroom! - To pee?

Yes.

I'll go too.

- You go first then. - Okay.

Actually, I don't feel like going.

You think it's funny?

Quite funny.

What a sweet couple. You had to pee together.

- I'll beat that bastard up. - Who is it?

- Who went out with her tonight? - Me. You better try harder.

You need a good beating too!

This is my lucky day.

You're such a jerk.

You can kiss this all you want.

Darling, you'll catch a cold.

Hey, you'd better leave now.

It's chaotic out there. Where can I go?

To hell!

If I go to hell, you have to hear my last words.

Hey, don't disturb the neighbors.

A robbery occurred this afternoon.

- You're disturbing the neighbors. - I'll do what I like!

The police and thieves fired over 60 shots.

One person was killed,

and five were injured. All six thieves escaped.

Inspector Lau of that district had no comment to make.

Inspector Chan Chong-Shun of the new special team

had this to say...

We must crack the case quickly.

This is the main objective of this special team.

That's the end of this special news.

Let's take a bath together first.

- Darling! - Hey, I'm in here!

What a stink!

What stink? I'm only peeing.

Your pee still stinks.

I'm so fed up with you two.

- Hey. - What?

Don't get in our way.

I'm here to sleep by Sister Hung's side.

Have a threesome? You don't have to be so nice to me.

You wish.

I wish it so much.

You're gross! So disgusting!

Darling, I'm coming.

Get out! Out! I'll scream "rape!"

- Scream "rape" as husband and wife? - Rose! Help me, Rose!

I couldn't care less.

Want to starve me of sex?

- Come, strike the iron... - Help!

...while it's hot!

What does this mean?

I'll swallow it if you don't want it.

You've wanted it for so long, and now you have it.

Who even wanted your lousy ring?

Who in their right mind proposes in a bathroom?

Deposit made. Now I get the gift.

Careful not to drop me on the floor!

I won't fall off the horse.

Wonder which bastard is calling me at this hour.

- Who's that? - I'll return the call first.

Don't!

This call is very important. Damn it!

Who the hell is calling you?

It's my grandma. I have to go now.

What? You wanna leave now? Don't come back if you do!

So you made me rush it.

Fine, I'm coming right away!

Coming... Coming...

Coming. Who is it?

It's me, Grandma.

It's Little Doggie.

Uncle Kwong.

Little Doggie,

you've not been back for so long, I hardly recognized you.

It's for you.

- What is it? - Your favorite food.

- Maltose? - That's right.

I've got no teeth left to eat.

Your uncle's been drinking since he got back.

He's been cursing you while drinking. Go check on him.

Go on. Be good.

Stop drinking.

Chief Inspector Chow brought in a kid today to replace me.

They treat me like I don't exist!

I may be old, but I won't give in.

- That's enough. - Leave me alone!

I've been a cop for more than 30 years.

I've risked it all to get to this rank!

Unlike them,

who got promoted by passing exams.

I've received more awards than Chief Inspector Chow!

Son...

you were good at everything.

Except you died too early.

Now I've got no one to help me.

I believe I can catch those bastards!

Those who deserve to die are still alive.

The one who deserves to live ended up dead.

Don't be like that, Uncle Kwong. Get up.

- You get out. Leave me alone! - Uncle Kwong...

Uncle Kwong.

This world is always changing

Things won't always live up To our expectations

All the choices I've made turned Into sad and painful stories

I was down, I hit the ground, Tasted failure all around

But people still don't understand

They're never satisfied

I'm wasting my time

Oh, oh!

You have to fight for happiness

Oh, oh!

You have to fight for happiness

This world is always changing

Things won't always live up To our expectations

All the choices I've made Seem to be in vain

I swear to myself, I'll never ever fail again

No matter what I have to do, I have to succeed

I'm wasting my time

Oh, oh...

- Hi, Big Song. - Hi, Chow. Take a seat.

You have to fight for happiness

Long time no see. What is it?

Oh, oh...

Big Song, if I was doing well, I wouldn't come to see you.

...fight for happiness

A loan shark is gonna have me killed unless I pay my debt.

If we work together and make it this time,

we'll surely get rich.

- What, are you afraid? - Why would I be afraid?

- I still have the guns. - You do?

It's foolproof.

- All right. Let's figure it out. - Make it quick then.

There he is.

- Give that to me. - You can take those flowers.

I want them.

What's the deal?

Magnum $3,000, Colt $2,500. Buy six, get six bullets free.

Chow, that's a bit too expensive.

That's before adding my commission.

Are you kidding me?

What is your commission?

Ten percent of the deal.

This is daylight robbery.

You're using these to rob too.

Go away!

- Take it, little girl. - Thank you.

It's a bit expensive, but there's a shortage.

Sometimes money isn't everything, right?

- You know the market well. - I'm just speaking the truth.

I'll have to think about it.

- Let's meet again. - Okay.

Waiter.

It's all right. Leave it to me.

There, the one in the gray overcoat is Ko Chow.

You think he's linked to the Wing Hang case?

Yes.

- Here, this is it. - Oh, yes.

Hey!

Don't cry.

Don't cry any more. Be good.

Preparing gold, silver, and valuables...

Little Wah.

Take them all.

You take them all!

This is the killer who murdered Low-Life Wah. You know him?

This is the killer in the jewelry shop raid.

His face is covered. How can I tell?

Uncle Kwong, CID are on my tail.

Must be John's men.

I don't care who they report to.

How can I help you if you don't get rid of them?

Record everything that has to do with the deal.

It will be used as evidence in court.

Guns?

Get them in Mongkok Bowling Center.

Hey,

it's very irresponsible of me to just hand the guns to the thieves.

Chow... if they don't buy the guns from you,

they'll get them somewhere else.

If that happens, we won't know how many guns they have...

and we'd also lose our lead.

We're doing the right thing.

- We'll see. - Wah...

Mrs. Chan!

Wah...

Wah, you can't just leave the three of us like this.

Wah! What am I going to do now?

Table for two? This way.

He's here.

How are you, somebody's husband?

- Been waiting long? - Just a while.

- What would you like to drink? - Coffee.

Two coffees, please.

I just went with Hung to try on the wedding dress.

Wow! She looked like Joan of Arc! You're so lucky.

Really?

Your suit's ready. Go try it on when you're free.

- Yes. - All right.

Remember to be at the registry at 10 a.m., day after tomorrow.

Don't say you're busy.

Relax.

I've heard you say that many times.

It's as if you fear you can't get married.

He's very absent-minded.

Hey, I went to see an apartment with Rose.

I want to sell the old one and buy a bigger one.

What do you think?

No problem.

Why are you so quiet? Not feeling well?

No.

Hung?

I want to postpone it.

Why?

I'm working on something.

Signing your name doesn't take long.

I'll sign after I finish the job.

What is it?

Don't ask.

Signing it later won't make any difference.

No! You're changing the date for no reason!

Just wait till I finish the job.

Wait?

I've been waiting for years!

You didn't come to try the suit on.

We set the date and now you want to change it.

Tell me, have you done anything for this wedding?

Let's stay calm and talk.

You don't even want to marry me. Forget it then!

Sister Hung.

Look after her.

A strike! Well done.

- That was a beautiful strike. - Do you know how to play?

Hey.

Been waiting for long?

Brother Fu, have a pear.

Where's Big Song?

Do we have to travel this far?

Thought you said your boss would come?

I didn't bring them. I owe you six for now.

Go on, search me! Touch me down there!

Enjoyed touching me? Keep on searching! Go on, search me!

Fucking hell!

Don't make a deal if you don't trust me!

You're really not afraid of dying?

So you finally speak?

So you finally speak?

I thought you were a mute bastard since you didn't speak!

Kid, you're cocky, aren't you?

Have you died before?

I'm half-dead now, but I don't believe you would kill me.

Killing me will do you no good. You'll only cause more trouble.

You're really something. Bullets are expensive.

Such a waste to try them on you.

Here.

You owe me six bullets, and I want five more guns.

I don't have that many. I've only got three.

- When will you have them? - Day after tomorrow.

Be here at noon, day after tomorrow.

Kid, watch out!

Up yours!

- Got a room? - Yes, follow me.

- Do you want girls? - No.

You're really not afraid of dying?

So you finally speak?

So you finally speak?

I thought you were a mute bastard since you didn't speak!

Kid, you're cocky, aren't you?

What have you done?

We went to the club last night where he works.

Ko Chow was off work.

We waited outside his home all night.

What about his girl's home?

We've sent people there.

Nothing happened.

Listen, I don't care how you do it,

just find out what he's up to quickly.

- Send one more team to find him! - Yes, sir.

We've got to put on a good show for that old man to see.

- Be smart, you two! - Yes, sir.

Uncle Kwong, they want three guns.

- Three? That many? - I came up with that casually.

You're so generous.

Exchange at noon tomorrow at the cemetery.

I can't get any guns until 10:00 tomorrow.

That might be too late.

Chow, I need time to type up the application letter for them.

Tomorrow at 10:00, I'll put the guns in the same locker. Okay?

What can I say?

Uncle Kwong, has my resignation been submitted yet?

What's the hurry?

I'm not kidding.

I'll stop working after I hand over the guns. That's it for me.

Fine, stop nagging.

I'm off.

Isn't this girl pretty?

Pretty good. But a good wife has to be more than pretty.

A university graduate.

Doesn't smoke or drink. She can even cook.

Enough.

Chow.

Don't fool around too much from now on.

Yes, sir!

Sister Hung, take some time to reconsider.

Brother Chow won't be that ungrateful.

Don't mention him again.

That Mr. Cho is married.

I think he lied about wanting a divorce.

Rose!

Go home. I'll call you when I arrive in Canada.

It must be Brother Chow!

Hey, Brother Chow! No, this is Rose. One moment.

Hey, it's Brother Chow.

- Talk to him. - What do I say?

Hey, Brother Chow. Sister Hung is flying with Mr. Cho tomorrow.

What did you say?

They're taking a flight to Canada at 2:00 p.m.

God damn it. Ask Hung to come to the phone!

Don't get mad. Why don't you come here now and explain it to her?

Rose, hang up! Do you hear me? Hang up!

Hung! Hung!

Sister Hung, I beg you. Talk to him one last time.

Ko Chow! What do you want?

Are you really going to Canada with that bastard?

Yes. So what?

What do you want me to do?

I don't want you to do anything!

Hung...

I'll marry you.

I mean it.

Give me a chance, will you?

I'm gonna come over there and talk to you now, okay?

That won't be necessary.

If you mean it,

meet me tomorrow at 10:00 at the register office.

Hung! Hung!

The traffic was really bad out there. I nearly didn't make it.

Yes, I took a bus.

Brother Chow will definitely show up.

Blackie's cover is blown.

He's in front. Start the car.

Keep a close eye.

That guy's heading south on Nathan Road,

approaching Cheong Lok Street.

He turned onto Nanking Street.

Close in on him, quick.

Trying to run?

Uncle Kwong, you asked me to get the guns,

and now you have CID agents tailing me?

Think of a way to lose them.

They're not my men.

If I'm caught with the guns I'm gonna be in trouble.

Don't worry, I'll protect you.

How? You can only save me from jail.

If my cover's blown, can you save me from getting killed?

A source has just suggested

that the thieves are buying guns elsewhere.

You have to hand them the guns at 12:00 p.m.

or we're gonna lose our lead!

Uncle Kwong, I can't afford to go on.

Fine. I'll handle the CID, okay? Go now.

What do I do now?

Get the guns from the Bowling Center.

John, I want you to pull your men. Stop tailing Ko Chow.

Who are you talking to?

The truth is Ko Chow is my informant.

That can't be.

He's involved in illegal gambling,

drug trafficking, loan sharking.

How could he be your informant?

Tell your men to stop tailing him.

No, no, no.

He's suspected of trafficking firearms.

He is also linked to the Wing Hang Jewelry robbery.

Even if he is your informant, there's nothing I can do.

I need Ko Chow to help me on a big case.

Fine, okay.

Let's set aside our differences and take care of business first.

This is strictly business. We need to uphold justice.

I can't do you a favor just because you're my senior.

I'm not the one you wanna push around.

Uncle Lau, old age isn't always an advantage.

Kid, I want you to pull your men!

Old man, this is my office.

Only I give orders.

You, get out!

He's trying to run! Chase him!

What's going on?

This train is about to depart. Please stand clear of the doors.

Please stand clear of the doors.

Come out! Come out!

You can't get away! Stop the train!

- Come out! - You won't get away! Come out!

Thanks.

Stop there!

Still trying to run?

Are you all right, Little Kwong?

Get him!

- Stop! - Stop!

Watch out!

Get in the car!

Over there.

Get in! Wanna get caught?

Wait!

Stop!

How did you know I was at the Bowling Center?

Where did you pick up the gear last time?

We are very cautious.

What about those cops?

If we lose out to the cops like that, how are we supposed to carry on?

Hey, aren't we going to the cemetery?

I came here to take you elsewhere.

I'm in a hurry. Shall we do the exchange here?

My boss wants to see you.

Three guns, 200 bullets, all here.

Hands off!

Great stuff.

Wait a second. What's the rush? Boss, I wanna sign on the gun.

You wanna get caught?

Count it. Ten grand for one, hundred grand in total.

Thank you, Brother Nam.

Chow, wanna join the game?

I'm planning a big heist. I want you in.

I am flattered, Brother Nam.

Fu speaks highly of you.

Thanks.

Big Song mentioned to me

that you'd be interested in making some big bucks too.

We think alike. Why not work together?

That's right, Chow. Together we'll get rich for sure!

All right, time for introductions.

- This is Bill. - Right.

- Skinny. - Hi.

Joe. We're all good brothers.

I, Chow Nam, have always believed in sharing equally with my men.

When we work as a team, nothing can stand in our way.

Good. Let me think about it.

Chow, don't overthink it. It's an opportunity.

Excuse me, I'm in a hurry.

Fine. Call Big Song when you've decided.

I'll get in touch with Big Song.

Let me drop you off.

I'm off then. Bye.

- Where are you going? - The airport.

- Where's the girl? - Over there.

Hung!

- Hung! - Sir, you can't go in.

Don't move!

Ko Chow, you're under arrest for suspected illegal possession of firearms.

If you go now, don't ever come back!

Don't move.

- Hung! - Go!

Move it!

Get in there!

Inspector John.

Get up!

Inspector John, this is what we found in the bag that was recovered from him.

Is this the money from the gun sale?

Who did you give the guns to?

I need to make a phone call to my lawyer.

Chow!

Bastard!

Let me kill him!

Inspector Lau, don't be like this!

Don't stop me!

Old man, I can shoot guns too. You don't scare me.

- Out of my way! - Don't, Inspector Lau!

What are you two doing, having a brawl?

Sir, he tried to shoot me.

Put your gun down.

This cannot happen in a police station. Uncuff him.

- Hurry! - You two, come into my office.

Ah-Man, watch him for me.

Close the door.

I thought I asked you two to work together, not fight.

What's happening now?

Inspector Chow, I arrested an asshole named Ko Chow.

He may be linked to the Wing Hang case

and also trafficking arms.

He was about to talk when Lau butted in.

Lau, don't you want to crack the case?

Ko Chow is my informant.

What if he is?

That doesn't mean you can allow him to sell firearms.

Nonsense. I arranged for him to hand the guns to the thieves.

What? Are you out of your mind?

Watch your mouth!

Lau!

And what's your reason for it?

I want an explanation now.

Sir, I hoped to learn more

about the thieves' organization with the gun sale

so we can arrest them all.

Now's the perfect time.

They're in possession of the firearms, we have grounds to arrest them.

Wait.

Inspector Chow,

now we can only charge them with arms possession.

Intention is not a crime.

From what I know, they've got at least three or four men.

One of them could admit to arms possession

and the others would walk free.

Making an arrest will alert them and they'll get smarter.

Now that they've got the guns, it'll turn into a case.

I suggest we wait until they commit the crime

and arrest them all in one go.

I object!

If it turns into a shootout, it could harm innocent citizens.

Stubborn as a mule.

Do you realize how many lives could be saved by catching just one thief?

Watch your mouth.

Lau, we're discussing a formal matter here.

Inspector Chow, I suggest Ko Chow take part in the robbery.

We'll take it down from the inside.

No. I promised Ko Chow that his work is done after the gun deal.

If he refuses, he'll get eight to ten years for arms possession.

Kid, you won't be able to charge him.

Ko Chow is no ordinary informant.

In fact, Ko Chow is our undercover officer.

Inspector Chow, I suggest you have a look at the files if you don't believe it.

Then it's settled. If he's an officer, send him in as a mole.

I object. That's too dangerous.

Inspector Chow,

you asked me to set up a special team to crack the case.

This is the only way.

Under the current legal system,

we need to catch them red-handed.

That way, we can bring them to justice.

I agree to hold off and wait until we can take them down altogether.

Lau, ask Ko Chow to take part in the robbery.

Inspector Chow, if you must do this, then I resign.

Lau, don't you want to crack the case?

Did you forget about Low-Life Wah and others who sacrificed their lives?

KING NGAI JEWELRY

TAI WAH JEWELRY

These four jewelry shops are the thieves' targets.

According to Ko Chow's information,

they have a few things in common.

They all have jewelry of great value.

They have poor security

and are located in crowded areas, making it easy to escape.

John, what do you think?

I think we should send men to guard all four shops.

Inspector Chow, I think we should call the Special Duties Unit.

I don't think it is necessary. We can handle this ourselves.

They're no ordinary gang.

If there's a shootout and bystanders are injured,

who's gonna be responsible?

All right. Call the SDU to help.

Yes, sir.

They look good.

Was it funny?

You made a fool of yourself.

Brother Chow, you have a letter from the US.

Buzz off.

Brother Fu, why haven't you said anything the whole night?

Are you mad at me?

What's wrong with you?

Cheer up, will you?

Come on.

Don't be so boring.

- Bravo! - Bravo.

Chow, I want to drink with you too.

- Hey, this wine is expensive. - Don't be so stingy.

- You talk too much, drink up. - I can't!

- You want to bully us ladies? - You keep out of it.

- Can you take a photo for us? - Okay.

Sit closer. Sit closer.

Wait!

Give us a smile.

SECOND FLOOR ROOM TO LET

FOUR SEAS VILLA

Brother Fu.

Chow.

Close the door.

Brother Fu.

- Where's Brother Nam? - In the room.

Hey, wake up! Do you think the entire living room is yours?

Brother Nam.

Boss!

I called you here tonight

to announce that we're going to act very soon.

Great! We're going to be rich!

What is it? Not happy? Cheer up!

Boss, are the guns any good this time?

Don't worry. We'll make it this time.

If the cops are in the way, they'll all be doomed.

Joe.

To make sure our plan stays under wraps,

no one is leaving this room from now on,

in order to cut off any contact with the outside world.

If you have a problem, you can talk to me.

If there's no objection, hand over all your pagers now.

Quick.

In the meantime, I want you to study the routes.

Brother Nam, which jewelry shop is our target?

I'll tell you when we set off.

Paul, ask your team to get ready.

The thieves could strike at any time.

Yes, sir.

Come on. Everybody get ready.

- Any movement? - No.

Inspector John.

Inspector Chan said shifting six teams between four shops might not be enough.

Inspector Chan who?

Six teams, 48 men, and it's still not enough?

They are just a few thieves, not an army.

- Ask him to come and see me! - Yes, sir.

TO INSPECTOR LAU, TSIM SHA TSUI POLICE STATION

What are you doing?

Nothing. Just have diarrhea.

Who is this?

My woman. She's gorgeous, isn't she?

Chow, what plans do you have after the heist?

What about you?

Blow it fast, then get ready for the next job.

You'll get caught sooner or later.

God forbid! It hadn't crossed my mind.

You could set up a small business.

What business? I can't even read a single word.

Seems like I'm destined to follow in my father's footsteps.

My father was a thief. My grandpa was also a thief.

I hope my son won't be one.

Your father's still in jail?

He died over ten years ago.

He was stupid.

He attempted a robbery at the police quarters

and was shot dead by a cop.

Is that why you hate the cops?

Not really. It's the rule of the game.

We gamble with our lives, we have to be prepared.

That noise has been going on all night.

They're having a party.

Hey, where's your son?

He's now someone's stepson. My wife remarried.

It's all my fault.

Where is your family?

They're all dead.

Not really. You still have your beautiful girlfriend.

To be honest, if I were you, I'd find myself a regular job.

Too bad I wasn't thinking straight.

My thinking is better than yours.

However, my girl just left me for another guy.

What a coincidence. Let's drink to it.

To celebrate her leaving me?

To celebrate us being in the same business.

You know, my wife still sends me cards on special occasions.

Do you get any?

I get that too.

Cut it out. You're just saying what I said.

USA. It came from America.

It looks like garbage. Did you pick it off the streets?

Who told you to get into the business of stealing instead of studying?

It says here in English "Mr. Ko." Mr. Ko is me.

Do you know any English?

First letter?

How did you know?

It hasn't been opened. You're afraid to read it.

You have to read it anyway. The sooner the better.

If you still have a chance, don't let her go.

Hold on to her.

Chow, I didn't go to Canada.

I changed plans in San Francisco

and went to Hawaii on my own.

I hope you'll come and take me back to Hong Kong.

My address is on the back of the envelope.

Miss you. Hung.

Chow, I can't believe it was you who betrayed me!

I will not rest in peace.

I will not rest in peace!

What is it? Are you scared?

Is this your first heist?

You won't be afraid when you're doing it. Get some sleep.

Why did you send the SDU away?

Having lots of officers sitting here is a waste of taxpayers' money.

- Call Chief Inspector. - Yes, sir.

- Be quick! - Yes, sir.

The decision was made by Chief Inspector.

- Boss. - Boss.

Boss.

Come and look at the good stuff.

- .357! - Oh, yes!

.45 too!

Brother Fu, try it.

My good brothers, we will set off shortly.

Let's check all the gear.

I'm gonna get rich!

Satisfied, Joe?

It's gonna be great!

Once it's done, we'll lay low at the mining house.

Then we'll leave Hong Kong by boat at dawn tomorrow.

Brother Nam, which jewelry shop is our target this time?

You guys should be familiar with the routes by now.

This time, we're going to rob Tai Kong Jewelry shop.

Great!

- Damn, we've still got nothing. - How long do we have to wait?

I'll pick you up on Mody Road if something goes wrong.

Don't move. This is a robbery.

Don't move!

Scream and I kill you.

Pack it up.

Put everything in the bag. Quick!

Hurry up or I'll kill you!

Headquarters calling team two.

Headquarters calling team two.

What's with the taxi outside the jewelry shop?

Team two, do you copy?

Team two, do you copy? Over.

Probably just waiting for a fare.

Where's the alarm?

You bitch called the police?

Don't move!

Get down. Everyone get down!

Robbery at Tai Kong's. All units come at once!

Miss?

Brother Fu, go!

Stay calm! Hurry up in there!

Go, go!

Joe, pack up and get in the car!

Leave it, Chow. Go!

Get in the car, Skinny!

Get down!

Get in the car!

Bill!

Bill!

Get in the car! Hurry!

Bill, are you all right? Bill!

Joe, watch out!

Joe, stop the car! Let me fight them! Joe, stop the car!

Stop talking! The police are closing in!

Get out of the car, hurry! Joe, get out!

Bill!

Go, Fu! Just go!

Big Song, bring the car here!

Fu, we better surrender.

I don't want to hear about it!

- Joe! - Joe!

Joe! Joe!

Bastard!

Come out!

Joe! Joe!

Give me the gun.

Fu!

Chow!

Drive that car over quickly!

- Are you all right? - I'm all right.

I swear I'm gonna get revenge!

Don't go out there, Fu! It's over!

Don't worry. I'm here.

I'm counting on you.

I still need to go find my wife in Hawaii.

Chow, I'm definitely going with you.

Come out!

- Big Song, ready? - Yes, sit tight!

Brother Fu, get in the car first! Hurry!

Hurry up!

Freeze!

- Where are the thieves? - Gone.

How did they get away?

Little Kwong is dead.

Any leads?

Inspector Lau seems to have found something.

Yung.

Got anything?

Yes. Three dead, five wounded. Are you happy now?

Inspector Lau, if we don't work together, we won't catch them.

We found Ko Chow's wallet in their getaway taxi.

Get out of the car.

Where's Bill and Joe?

Dead.

- Skinny, hide the car. - Yes.

Everything about the raid was airtight, but the cops still ambushed us.

There must be a traitor among us!

You're the traitor!

I'm the traitor?

If I was the traitor,

you would all have been arrested already!

Did I have to risk my life for you?

Brother Nam, Chow's not like that.

Shut up!

He's the new guy. Who else can it be?

I don't think Chow would do such a thing.

Yes, he's a good brother.

Go to hell!

I know I'm right! I've been in this game too long to be wrong.

If I'm wrong, then your luck's just plain bad!

Don't make any rash moves!

Let's get things straight.

Fu, are you crazy? Pointing the gun at the boss?

Put the gun down! Put it down!

Tell him to knock it off, or he's done for.

Leave it, Brother Fu.

If I die, you can have my share.

No! You saved my life, and I owe you one.

If anyone touches you, I'll kill him!

Brother Nam, just tell me what to do!

Don't move!

What do you want?

Boss Nam, there are a lot of police cars headed this way!

We'll settle this later. Big Song, pack up and go!

Chow, let's go.

This place is crawling with cops.

Everyone get down!

Chow, are you all right? Hang on.

Listen up! We've got you surrounded.

Put down your weapons and come out to surrender!

Surrender? Surrender my ass!

Fire!

Hold fire!

Attention, thieves!

If you don't surrender, we're gonna come in!

John, Ko Chow is inside. We need to try and capture them alive.

Did you know these guys are armed?

They cannot escape. They'll surrender sooner or later.

I'm in charge here. You're speaking out of turn.

If something happens to Ko Chow, I won't forgive you!

Ah-Man, find Chief Inspector Chow.

Yes, sir.

Big Song! Big Song!

I'll take them on!

Big Song!

Big Song!

- Big Song. - Big Song!

Don't shoot. I surrender!

- I surrender! Don't shoot! - Don't go out!

- Get down! - Don't stop me!

Brother Nam, don't force me. I don't want to die.

Put your gun down!

- Brother Fu. - Stay calm!

I told you to put down your gun!

You bastard!

- Skinny! Skinny! - Skinny!

How could you kill Skinny?

You're all the same! None of you respect me.

After we risked our lives for you,

treating you like our boss all this time?

Have you ever treated me like a boss?

Chow.

Chow.

Chow.

Chow, Chow, let's go.

Let's go.

Hang in there.

I won't make it. Go on.

No! I'm not gonna leave you here and let the cops catch you.

I'm a cop as well.

What did you say?

I'm a cop.

I'm a cop.

Say that again!

You can kill me if you like, but you'd better be quick...

or you won't have the time to escape.

Tell me you're not a cop!

I betrayed you.

The police must apprehend the robbers.

I owe you.

Do it now.

On the floor! Don't move.

Chow.

I still have to go to Hawaii with you.

Chow!

Get up! Go!

Move it!

Move!

Take him in.

Don't move! Sit down!

Chief Inspector, I didn't disappoint you.

Our team was only set up two months ago and we've already cracked a big case.

- I'll get a report to you soon. - John!

You might have cracked the case, now wait for your medal!

Inspector John, are you okay?

This world is always changing

Things won't always live up To our expectations

All the choices I've made Turned into sad and painful stories

I was down, I hit the ground, Tasted failure all around

But people still don't understand

They're never satisfied

I'm wasting my time

Oh, oh!

You have to fight for happiness

Oh, oh!

You have to fight for happiness

This world is always changing

Things won't always live up To our expectations

All the choices I've made Seem to be in vain

I swear to myself, I'll never ever fail again

No matter what I do, I have to succeed

I'm wasting my time

Oh, oh!

You have to fight for happiness

Oh, oh!

You have to fight for happiness
