Bun is immersed in the investigation.

I'm Ho, Officer 57005, reporting for duty.

Follow me.

I'll lie inside the suitcase. Push me down the stairs.

- Got that? - Yes, sir!

"Detective Bun Solves Another Murder Mystery"

Chief.

This is our farewell present for your retirement.

- Thank you. - Happy retirement, sir!

I have to pee.

Lose something?

- What is it? - My wallet.

You sure?

- It was in my pocket. - It's probably in the gaps.

Is this it?

- Thank you. - Happens all the time.

Nothing new.

Are you kidding?

You stole $1000 from me.

You're crazy.

I withdrew ten grand today.

This receipt can prove it.

Are you accusing me?

Report me.

It must have been you who stole my watch last time.

Then call our men to come and investigate!

The station keeps losing stuff. You're the thief.

So report me!

Police! Stop!

Stay where you are!

"Police Officer Wong Still Missing After Eighteen Months"

Dark chocolate?

No, the one with nuts.

This one has peanuts.

- I want almond. - But, there's none left...

You've always wanted it.

Kitty and Fay have it. Why not you?

Save the money for karaoke.

Steal it while no one is looking.

Just put it in your bag.

Stop encouraging her to steal!

I'm talking to you! You!

Stop acting! Those tears aren't real.

She's a young girl. I want to help her.

No one sees what you see!

But I have a gift.

Everyone thinks you're crazy.

I want to help people.

You were fired from the force. No one needs your help.

Bun.

I'm Ho, from the Regional Crime Unit.

Do I know you?

Five years ago, I worked for you for two days.

I want your opinion on a case.

What's the case?

Have you heard about Officer Wong's disappearance?

Go on.

Eighteen months ago,

Wong and his partner, Chi-wai, pursued a thief into the forest.

Wong disappeared with his gun. But Chi-wai survived.

A few months later, several armed robberies took place.

Two of which resulted in murders.

The bullets fired matched Wong's gun.

Other divisions have investigated it.

Now I'm in charge.

I've been investigating for months.

Found nothing.

Why should I help you?

You're a copper. I'm not.

If you can't solve it, how can I?

I've read all your cases.

Whenever I get stuck,

I think about you.

Last year, my gun broke.

I was issued this one.

It used to belong to you.

I think of you as my master.

Bun!

I know you're upset.

You promised me.

Go back to cooking. We'll talk later.

No.

Go back...

No!

Go back to cooking.

Get out! My husband won't help you! Solve your own case.

He's no longer a cop! Leave him alone!

Please don't, honey!

Leave.

Please stop...

You promised not to get involved again.

I have a feeling it'll kill you.

- It won't. - It will!

I'd rather die...

than live miserably. I've been so unhappy.

Nine months after Wong's disappearance,

a masked gunman stole "$80,000 from a Mahjong parlour.

He didn't fire a single shot.

Surveillance camera shows... he had a .38 police pistol.

Three days later, another gunman held up an armoured truck.

He killed three security guards and took $1.7 million.

The bullets matched Wong's gun.

A week later, at a convenience store...

Why bother asking that weirdo for help?

another gunman... another gunman robbed $6,000..

A sales clerk was killed. The bullets fired matched...

There's no way in hell he'll solve the case!

What a waste of time!

What are you looking at? You weirdo!

You'll see! He'll bring us all down.

I'm going to kick your arse!

Bun, recognise me?

I worked for another team.

I asked to transfer to yours!

Shut up!

I hear and see you, bitch!

Damn you, you nutter!

That's all for today.

I can see people's inner personalities.

Do you have Chi-wai's statement?

Wong and I waited for five hours.

The subject arrived in a white van.

We suspected him to be the thief.

It was too dark to see him clearly.

When we approached him, he ran into the forest.

Wong and I got separated during the pursuit.

I tried calling Wong... but never got through.

When dawn broke,

I found my own way out.

Shark's fin soup.

Steamed fish.

Half of a roasted chicken.

And a bowl of rice.

Fried rice, please.

Go and talk to him.

Chi-wai, can we talk?

Who are you?

I'm Ho, Regional Crime Unit.

I want to discuss Wong's disappearance.

Isn't OCTB investigating it?

Isn't OCTB investigating it?

Just being nosey.

Do you have any thoughts?

I believe Wong is already dead.

I believe Wong is already dead.

After I lost sight of him that night,

he must've run into the thief.

The thief killed him,

and used his gun to commit robberies.

I've known Wong for a long time. I've known Wong for a long time.

Since we were rookies.

Now he's disappeared.

I want to find him. Whether dead or alive.

Thank you.

Enjoy your meal.

Got to pee.

Problem?

Don't fire the gun!

Don't!

You can't fire the gun!

You can't fire the gun!

Stop! He's my partner!

I'm tired of how long this investigation has been going.

I am in debt,

I am in debt, I'm a big spender.

But it doesn't mean I'd kill Wong!

1...2...3...4...

5...6...7...

I'm a cop too.

Why won't you trust one of your own?

Fatso.

Why can't you fire the gun?

He can see us!

Nonsense!

Chi-wai has seven inner personalities!

One of them is deadly. The woman is the brain.

The fatso is a glutton and a coward!

I've never seen so many personalities.

Chi-wai is a complex person!

Bun, you're hurt.

Why did the fatso say...

they can't fire the gun?

Police investigation.

Excuse us.

You brought my gun to me.

The gun plays a critical role in this case.

I know, the gun was involved in so many crimes...

You've got it all wrong!

Apply emotions to investigate! Not logic!

HOld up!

Again?

Everyone get down!

Police investigation!

Sorry fellas.

Give me all your money.

Bun,anyleads?

We have two suspects, two guns involved.

One robbed the armoured truck and the store. He's a ruthless murderer.

The other didn't kill when he robbed the Mahjong parlour...

Not as bad as... Look.

It's a sign!

God is telling us we're on the right track!

Thank you!

Why would a high-stakes criminal waste time on a convenience store?

Because he has seven personalities!

But who is the other gunman? Where did his gun come from?

Honey, I'm almost done.

Let's eat out.

I'm working. I'll call you back.

Bring your girlfriend along.

Reserve a table for four.

I'll pick you up from home.

Bun.

Let's get a bigger table.

Set a table for us outside.

Yes.

Relax.

This is my girlfriend, Gigi. She's in the Anti-Triad Department.

Nice to meet you.

I once worked there too.

My wife said she worked there too.

Waiter. Open some wine. You can choose.

We only want the best.

My wife doesn't eat beef, remember?

Of course!

Yours?

Yes.

- I once had one too. - Really?

How about a spin?

No. You haven't driven in a while. And your license has expired.

- Please, honey. - No.

I'll drive you.

Be right back!

Careful!

She can't see us anymore.

How long have you known Bun?

Seven, eight years.

Bun used to come here with his wife on his motorcycle.

Then he started coming by himself.

But said he was with his wife.

I didn't ask questions. I assumed she'd died.

You know he's...

- Nice ride! - You drove!

Hold on tight!

My hair's a mess!

I'm going to the restroom.

- I'll take you. - No, it's alright.

Believe me, it's hard to find. It's okay...

Really, I'll find it myself.

- It's here. - Thanks.

It's an honour to be working with Bun.

He has a unique way of investigating.

Can you see her?

Just trying.

Thanks for coming to my husband. He's become a happier man.

Why did you offer your ear to the Chief?

It was a present.

Chief has no inner personalities.

How about me?

Wong is dead.

How do you know?

He's here.

Buried in mud.

For eighteen months,

police and citizens searched the forest many times.

I also camped here for two weeks. Nothing was found.

I tried to imagine what you would do.

I'd bury myself.

Bury me.

Let me try.

You're not me.

Let me try.

It's not easy to be me.

Give me your gun.

What are you looking for?

Are you looking for this?

You can see me.

I've been lost for a long time.

I can't find my way out.

No one could see me or hear me.

I've been here...

for 18 months.

Do you know who I am?

You're Chi-wai.

You're a cop.

Why am I here?

On March 14th, you and your partner Wong

pursued a thief into this forest.

Then you murdered Wong.

Why?

I don't know yet. It's probably connected to your gun.

You also murdered four other people.

Three security guards.

And a sales clerk.

Bun!

Bun!

He's a nutjob. Leave him alone.

Bun! Open the door!

"Female Body Found In Concrete"

"Taiwanese Gives Himself Up"

Hands on your head!

Hands on your head!

I'm Inspector Cheung. You're under arrest for breaking and entering.

Are you Bun's wife?

Where did you get the handcuffs?

My name is Ho. I'm from Regional Crime Unit.

Where's your badge?

In my car.

And your gun?

In my locker at the station.

My badge number is 57005.

Call and check if you don't believe me.

Bun is my ex-husband. What do you want from him?

Why are you here?

His psychiatrist said he hasn't shown up for six months.

No one answered when I knocked.

I came in to see if he was dead.

Did he claim he could see people's inner personalities?

Or that God would give him signs?

He thinks we're still together.

Bun is mentally ill. He hasn't been taking his medication.

He's mad. You'd better stay away from him.

Waitress.

- May I take your order? - Shark's fin soup.

Steamed fish.

Half of a roasted chicken...

- And a bowl of rice. - Thank you.

Shark's fin soup.

Steamed fish.

Half of a roasted chicken.

And a bowl of rice.

Waitress.

Shark's fin soup.

Steamed fish.

Half of a roasted chicken.

And a bowl of rice.

"The horses are approaching the post..."

Go.

Go!

I'm Ho, Regional Crime Unit.

I'm looking for Chi-wai.

He's not answering.

Call again.

What case is Chi-wai working on?

In this district, it's usually robberies, fraud, or domestic affairs.

What case is Chi-wai working on? Why is Chi-wai investigating the Indians?

In this district, it's usually robberies, fraud... or domestic affairs.

Found him yet?

How often do you inspect your men's guns?

Once every week.

What's your inspection procedure?

Show me.

We'd check the gun's number against the Arms Inspection Record.

Does your supervisor follow the procedure?

It's standard procedure.

But our district is more relaxed.

I believe in my men. They are not thieves.

"CHl-WAl"

Where's the suspect?

What did you lose?

My gun.

What?

Where?

How should I know?

I almost caught the thief.

- Did the thief take it? - No.

I hope not.

What are you doing?

Reporting to dispatch. We won't find it in the dark.

Don't! It'll ruin my record.

We'll be in bigger trouble if the thief has it.

I'm up for a promotion. Please...

We have to report to dispatch.

We may still be able to intercept the van.

Why did you kill him?

If I don't, he'll report on me.

You can't just take his gun, it has a serial number.

Regional Crime Unit?

I want to report seeing an Indian with a gun on Hung To Road.

Sir, are you alright?

What's the status?

We received an anonymous call today.

Someone saw an Indian with a gun on the third floor.

Get everyone ready to move.

Yes, sir.

Let's move!

Looks like the lead was good.

- Search around. - Yes, sir!

Chi-wai killed Wong... and took his gun.

The Indian found Chi-Wai's gun.

Chi-wai will kill the Indian to take his gun back.

Where are you?

Wai Yip Street.

I'm on Hung To Road.

Turn on Hau Ming Street.

Where are you? I don't see you.

I can see you.

I saw a boy. Where are you?

What are you talking about?

I'm right behind you.

You almost ran me over!

Give my badge and gun back!

What's going on?

What happened to you?

You got me into big trouble.

Calm down. We've solved the case already.

I saw a masked man,

but I couldn't catch him.

It's Chi-Wai.

He's responsible for everything.

No.

We received a tip that an Indian had a police gun.

It's a set up.

Chi-wai is trying to throw us off.

I saw the armoured boxes...

the masks... I'm scared.

I don't want to play anymore.

He has lost faith in you. Return his gun and walk away!

Quiet!

I really regret asking you for help.

Let's arrest Chi-wai together.

He's frightened. Leave before he kills you!

Stay out of this!

I'm scared.

You're mad.

Your wife already left you.

What you're seeing is an illusion!

I met your real wife at your home.

She's a police inspector.

Why didn't you return his gun?

I can't let this go.

Do you have to continue the investigation?

Yes.

May.

Has Bun been here lately?

He was just here yesterday.

Call me if he comes again.

- Okay. - A coffee please.

- Some wine? - Have you seen my wife?

This way.

Your doctor said you haven't been checking in.

It's not my business. But I'm worried.

She's evil.

- Bun! - Walk away from her.

- Who is she? - Don't ask! Get in the car.

Stop messing with him! Leave him alone!

I've been on this homicide case for six months.

Who is the killer?

Who is she?

I'm your wife. We married in Hawaii in '96.

After I left you, you invented this person in your mind.

She doesn't exist!

Get her to leave...

The killer is the nephew.

Thank you.

What have I become in your eyes?

Someone selfish and cold-hearted?

You think everyone is selfish and has inner personalities.

Actually, you're the problem!

Bun is not the problem.

Let it go.

You are the problem.

- He will get killed... - Let it go! She can't see you!

Take care.

Are you alright?

Where did you go?

I heard you walked off a job.

I was buried alive.

I couldn't breathe.

It was unbearable.

I almost got ran over by a truck.

It almost killed me.

I saw Bun's wife.

She's alive.

Bun took my gun.

Wait!

Stay calm.

Why did Bun take your gun?

Don't know.

He also took my badge.

Bun insists Chi-wai did it.

What if he uses my gun to commit crimes?

I've got to report the loss.

Stop!

You're up for promotion next month.

This will ruin your record.

You've maintained a perfect record so far.

Don't let this... ruin your career.

Lend me your gun.

File a missing badge report for me.

I'll go see Chi-wai.

I'm Ho, from Regional Crime Unit.

I'm looking for Chi-wai.

Ho is also your name?

Call RCU to verify.

Who's the man with the bandaged head?

Is he one of ours?

What gave him the right to investigate me?

Let's talk.

Got questions?

Wondering where I got all my cash from?

I won it from horse races.

Check the books if you don't believe it.

Wondering why I investigate Indians?

Wong's death wasn't my case, but I still want to solve it.

I didn't get a good look at the thief.

But I could make out his physique.

I want to see your gun.

- Show me yours first! - I want to see your gun!

No!

Not unless you're my boss.

You're under arrest for the murder of Wong.

What's your proof?

What's the serial number of Chi-wai's gun?

What's the number?

Boss. Leave us alone.

This investigation is driving everyone crazy.

Can I have some water?

Yes, thanks.

I just got a lead on the Indian thief.

Want to arrest him together?

So, Bun is your partner. Didn't he cut off his ear?

Why ask him for help?

He used to be a great detective.

Why does he suspect me?

He said he could see a person's inner personalities.

He said you have seven.

What about you? What did he see in you?

A scared boy.

"Beware of Chi-wai. He'll kill you when he gets his gun back!"

"He'll kill you."

The Indian killed Wong and used his gun for the robberies.

Chi-wai killed his partner. He's holding Wong's gun.

The Indian is holding Chi-wai's gun.

When Chi-wai gets his gun back, he'll kill the Indian and you.

Put your gun down.

Put your gun down.

Chi-wai killed his partner. He's holding Wong's gun.

When Chi-wai gets his gun from the Indian, he'll kill you and me.

You saw the Arms Inspection Record. The serial number matched.

He changed the record.

You're not a cop.

Why do you have a gun? Does it belong to Ho?

Whose gun are you holding?

You killed my partner, and used his gun for the robberies.

Your gun belongs to Wong.

You're under arrest

for armed robberies and the murder of Wong.

Drop the gun.

If you fire, you'll be no different from the others.

I'm only human. Why should I be any different?

The case is solved.

Call Gigi.

Then construct your alibi.

Gigi.

I got my gun back and I solved the case.

But I have a slight problem.

I fired your gun. You have to be at the scene.

Come quick.

The address is 6/F, Man Li Building.

Don't tell anyone.
