Let us through
Everyone in the building got sick after drinking the water, Sir
Has the tap water been checked?
I don't know
Where's the bathroom?
Right inside
Who called in the report?
A guy named Ting, second floor
Find out how to reach him
Get his work number
his pager, anything
Tell him to come home immediately
Something's happened
Brother Kwan
Will you come out and have a drink with me?
No thanks. You'd better go home and go to bed
How can I fall asleep?
Is the architect dead?
Knock it off
I can't get him out of my mind
Did he die when we stabbed him or
did we drown him?
Wah, shut up!
He deserved it. He forced us to do it
We're going be rich soon!
Then, we'll leave the country
After awhile no one will remember anymore
It's late
Go home and go to bed
Who are you?
Don't resist!
We're with the Special Crime Bureau
We're taking you down to headquarters
Stop resisting!
What? What's going on?
A murderer can never escape the law
Take your time. Look carefully
He asked me to collect the debt that the man lost at the track
But when I got there, he didn't have it
He asked me not to force him
Then he ran to the roof and threatened to kill himself
I tried to pull him down
How did I know, he'd pull a knife and stab me?
I just wanted to take his knife away
But in the confusion
I didn't mean to kill him
Why did you throw his body in the tank?
I didn't know what to do
I was so scared at that moment
You were scared?
What happened then?
Then, I just left
Sir, may I have a cup of coffee?
Please
And a piece of toast, too
Please, sir
- Don't annoy me - Give it to him
You were at the victim's home many times
You must have known the watchman would recognize you
You should have turned yourself in
What did you take from the victim's home?
You stayed there after you killed him
We found your fingerprints in his study room
What were you looking for?
Money
He owed me money. I wanted it back
I just wanted money
This blueprint. Where did you get it?
Was it taken from the victim's home?
It's mine
This is a blueprint of a vault
The entrance and exit are detailed in it
Where is this vault located?
Here
Thank you
We found these items where we arrested you
What are they?
Nitric acid, vegetable oil, potassium
And these, blast wires, fuses and a remote control
These are for making bombs
What do you have in mind?
Are you trying to rob a vault?
Sir, I'm being very cooperative
I really don't know anything about what you're asking
I'm not able to answer you
Ask him any other weapons? Any accomplices?
Darn you! Talk!
Talk!
I really don't know anything
You should know this person, right?
That's Chan Wah, Mak Kwan's cousin
He was caught operating an illegal horse betting parlor in 1 992
He did 2 years in jail
The apartment where we caught you is rented under his name
You should know him, right?
OK. I know him
Sir
Go on
You said these things aren't yours or Mak Kwan's
That means they belong to Chan Wah
Chung Lai Hung, you'd better cooperate with us
What exactly are you charging me with?
Aiding and abetting a suspect
possession of illegal explosives, withholding information
Yung, take a break
Chung Lai Hung
Mak's confessed to all charges
He said you're not involved
But whether we believe him or not depends on you
Now we're going to add one more charge
The intent to rob the vault
You know about this plan, right?
Why don't you ask Mak Kwan?
Miss Chung, here's the situation
Mak's confessed to all the charges
Because he doesn't want you involved
We already know about his accomplices and his weapons
and we already have all the evidence we need
I personally don't think you're involved
Tell me where his accomplices and the weapons are
and we'll let you go
Thank you for your valuable information
When you can remember anything
please inform my colleagues
Mak Kwan, family from Chiu Chou, born in Hong Kong in 1 964
Graduated from HKU with a degree in Civil Engineering in 1 986
Senior Engineer with Wingtai Construction Ltd
from 86 to 93
His field was construction site demolition
Sir
Sit up straight
In 1 993 you abused your position at work
and were fired
for illegally selling explosives
Since then you've been unemployed
You're an expert at demolition
Surely you must know how powerful this explosive is
It can destroy half this station
What are you saying?
These aren't mine
Not yours?
I'll go next door and ask your girlfriend if they're hers
It's got nothing to do with her
Let her go and I'll confess to all charges
No way
Unless you tell us
what were you going to rob?
How many people are working with you?
What weapons do you have?
You're just out to crack a big case aren't you?
Let me go
and I'll do something big
If you're able to, you can arrest me then
I think we're in for another hard time
Yes, Sir
Mak Kwan confessed to the charges
and will be sentenced to life in prison
You're all right for now
If you have any information about the robbers
call my mobile phone
Let's try to help each other out
Fine
Hello. This is Sung
Siu-hung
Where are you calling from?
Go check out Kwan
Brother, it's Siu-hung
Did you tell the police about us?
Yes. . .
After you see him, we'll meet at the usual place, 8 p.m.
I'll call you
Do you know the place? That's all for now
What's up?
Siu-hung said the police are on to our plan
We've been exposed
She hasn't seen Mak Kwan, has she?
We might have problems with immigration when we leave
Let's get a new address first
and change the phone numbers immediately
Isn't it safer to go back to Taiwan now?
You gotta be kidding
We came here to make money, how can we quit now?
Wah, give us a minute
We have something to discuss
We thought we'd found the right guy
he dragged us into this shit instead
So what does this all mean?
We always do a clean job
I think this time there's no way out
Boss, what are you saying?
Are we supposed to bust him out of prison?
He's not even our friend
All the more reason, because he isn't our friend
There's nothing to keep him from implicating us
If we don't do it, we'll never be safe
We have to risk it
And if we can't free him, we kill him
What do you think?
I buy whatever you say
But Chan Wah may not go along
If he doesn't
get rid of him
OK
Please have a seat
Keep an eye on her
May I take your order?
Iced tea
Iced tea, please
Bill, let me remind you
Mak Kwan is in trouble
now because he lost a few million betting on horses
I had a few million?
Keep a sharp eye on the target
Everyone knows you're involved with big jobs
so you're very popular
A lot of guys want to be friend with me
I have a private room and a private toilet here
Only no doors, just bars
People can see everything I do
What's wrong?
I'm still alive. The sky hasn't fallen
Cheer up!
Since I haven't been with you for awhile
there must be a lot of bloodhounds on your tail
You know what I mean?
You're back!
Yes
Why didn't you call me last night?
I was busy
Did the criminal confess?
Yes, he did
How's the baby?
Good. Yesterday he learned how to write his name
He was hoping to show you when you came home
Oh! The construction foreman who used to work for you
asked me to send you his regards
Please tell them that
I wish to have tea with them and talk about the new project
You're still thinking about that?
I think they may have dropped the idea
But how can they earn a living doing nothing? Right?
He's obviously asking his gang to get him out
They'll probably make their move when we transfer him to court
Officer Pao, Chan Wah does have an account with the Jockey Club
In fact, he made a bet today
What race is running right now?
The seventh
This is a record of his bets today
Seventh race, horses one, four and two
Eighth race, horses ten, six and three
Ninth race, horses five, three and seven
He bets a lot! He's very confident
The bets were made awhile ago so we can't trace them
You're joking?
We have no right to ask the HKJC to stop a horse from racing
Do you know the pot is always over 1 00 million in each race?
Each horse takes in at least 1 0 million
But I'm sure those thieves are well-armed
If there's a gun battle, there'll be a lot of causalities
We've got to apprehend them before we move Mak Kwan to court
But our only clue to their whereabouts
is to get Chan Wah to bet again
Tomorrow we escort Mak Kwan along this route
Listen carefully
tomorrow I want you all on full alert
We could run into these guys at any moment, understand?
Yes, Sir
Any questions?
Officer Pao, the fifth horse in the ninth race just dropped out
Television
Horse number five
has suddenly dropped out due to health
Watch Chan Wah's account
If you've bet on this horse, it can be refunded
If you want to change your bet, better be quick
There are only three minutes left till the race
Chan may bet again
The race
is about to start
Number one, Power
is the dark horse
Chan Wah's betting
Trace the call
Number four, Bravo
doesn't seem like a good bet
I suspect its performance
Number five is attracting a lot of support
but let me remind you, it's dropped out of the race
If you want to bet on another horse, better be quick
The race starts in 30 seconds
The number is 2381 5746
Pull me up an address
Nathan Road, Po Ning Building, 1 4th floor, Room 2
Let's go
- Where's your captain? - Inside, Sir
Don't block our way
Leave here
I'm with the SCB. What's happened?
One of the units is leaking gas
We've called the Fire Department
Which apartment?
Room 3 on the 1 4th floor
The electricity is out
Only the elevator for the odd floors is working
Maybe they knew we'd come and they're pulling something
Should we wait for the firemen?
Let's go up
1 4. One more floor
Hold the elevator
Hey, buddy, we're with the SCB
- Can I use your flashlight? - Yes, Sir
After me
Ma'am, may I use your flashlight? Thank you
This is the unit
Stay back
Careful. If you fire we're in deep shit, you know?
Stand back
If we force the door and there's a spark
it'll explode
To stop this crime, I'll take the risk
Officer Pao
let me do it
Open the windows. Turn off the gas
Open all the windows
That's nitric acid
Get out! It's dangerous! Run!
Run!
Come out of there
What is it, Sir?
You'll find out
Why so late, Sir?
If you're planning an escape
you're dreaming
I don't know what you're talking about
Tomorrow we've assembled a team to escort you
A team of over one hundred cops and thirty vehicles
There'll be roadblocks at all major exits
to check suspicious cars
If your buddies have the balls to try to save you
even if they've got AK-47s
we've got MP-5s
And I'm telling you man-to-man
you step even one foot outside the prison van
I'm shooting you myself
no matter what
If you don't want to die
tell your buddies not to show up
If you'd like to inform them, I'll help arrange it
I met my girlfriend when I was in college
Her ex-boyfriend organized a gang to attack me
They kept stabbing me with a knife
Until I was lying on the floor, my body
I can't remember anything after that except
they all looked so scared
I moved in with the girl
but they never came after me
I could never figure out why
until recently. Now I know
It's not an easy thing to kill someone
Have you ever killed someone?
You can't forget it for the rest of your life
The struggle of the dying
The scream of death
It lasts less than a minute
But it takes forever
That architect wakes me up every night with his noise
You can't know better than I do
Then neither of us are normal people
Tomorrow, when you're about to shoot
Don't tremble
Eat your breakfast
I have no appetite
Look at you, you're all dirty
Hurry up. It's time for school
Baby, greet your daddy
Tell Daddy to eat his breakfast
Daddy, eat breakfast
Get me some stomach pills
I know where they are. I'll get them
Hurry up
Don't you have to go to school
Cut it first
Take it
Be careful
Everything checks out normal at the Aberdeen Tunnel
Take the special passage. Over
Brother, there's roadblock
Wah, did the police see you last time?
No
We have to stop
Good morning, sir
Where are you headed?
Repulse Bay
Go ahead
Thank you, Sir
Unit 22 calling
Go ahead , 22
We've located the suspect, Chan Wah
And we've identified his car
Inform all units
Chan Wah has been spotted
He's in a gold Benz
License number DZ 61 83
There are four suspects in the vehicle
They're heading along the Eastern Corridor toward Wanchai
Officer Pao, got it? Over
Got you. Over
Bill, Yung, go to Gloucester Road and head them off
Got you
Jackie, no matter what
Don't let them get near the High Court building
Got it
OK, support team, move up
Team B, follow me
Lose him! Right
Move it, Sung!
Bill, Yung, report the location of the suspects' vehicle
They're on Gloucester Road heading for Central
Copy
Turn it!
This is Pao, where are the suspects?
They're headed toward Hennessy Road
They diverted Yung
But I'm on them . Officer Pao
Do you read me?
Copy
They're all crazy!
Let's fight them to the death!
Officer Pao, the suspects are heading toward Wanchai North
Stay on them. I'm almost there
Come on
Officer Pao, are you all right?
We're fine. Watch out, the criminals are armed
They're heading for Central
Yung, where are you?
Near Charted Road , Sir
We're approaching your position
I see them, Sir
Stop them!
Yes, Sir
Attention all units, don't let them reach Central
Force them to Sheung Wan where it's less crowed
Do you read me? Over
Yung, don't let them past you. Force them into the tunnel
Yes, Sir
There are more and more police
They've almost got us
Stay calm
Yung
stop them no matter what
Do you read me? Over
Don't worry. I've got them
Hit the dirt!
Let's get out of here!
Run!
Get in. Move it!
Sung!
After them!
Yung
License FD 2748. I'll get them
Somebody help!
- Yung! - Help!
Call an ambulance!
Careful. Move him slowly
Force it open
Yank the door off
Give us a hand
Yung!
How is he?
Pull him out easy
Hold on, Yung
Officer Pao, I don't think he'll make it
Guys, call an ambulance
Got it
Yung
Yung!
Bill, where are you going?
Bill
Let me go! I've gotta get them!
Come on!
- Calm down! - I gotta get those guys!
Bill!
Hands off! Get your hands off me!
I can't take it anymore
Let go of me! Please, let go!
Take it easy. They've already gone
Your brothers will do anything for you
They do it for money. That's all
So
You know that little job I've talked about?
Yes
The best time is when the chief comes
You'll have to have someone get the money from my girlfriend
I can arrange everything from in here, but
whether it works or not depends on you
Whatever happens, no refunds
Of course. You can only depend on yourself
Why are you crying?
Why are you crying? Did Mommy punish you?
What? Be good
I told you to write, not come in here
Let's go. Don't bother your daddy
Take your bath
Have you finished your homework?
Mommy asked you to write and you cry?
Stop crying or I'll beat you
Stop it or I'll beat you
I've taught you before
Don't do it. Let's go for a walk
Come on!
Don't cry
Daddy's taking you out for a walk, OK?
You're still thinking about Yung
Baby, this away. Don't go there
I told him to do it
I'm the one who told him to stop their car
It was an accident. It wasn't your fauLt
You didn't wish for it to happen, did you?
I've been a cop for over ten years
My gun gets heavier and heavier
I don't want to shoot anybody and I especially don't want to get shot
Now, one of my men are dead
My heart aches, you know?
I don't think I'm cut out to be a cop anymore
We won't starve if you quit your job
What's important is that you're happy
What's wrong?
Have fun. Go have fun. Go on
It's ready, Boss
Take these cigarettes with you , Buddy
And this, too
Take care, my friend
Cover him up
You lied! You said the cops didn't see you
You lead my friend to his death. Go to hell!
How's it coming?
I don't recognize anyone
What? You can't identify him?
I just got a glance at him
Even a rookie could recognize a suspect
How did you get pass the promotion board?
There wasn't any time. I didn't get a good look
Why don't you just admit you're scared?
The distance between us was just one foot
If I had stared at their faces
It'd have been me that was killed instead
You expect me to identify them?
I expect you to arrest them , instead
Think you can handle that?
How can you talk to me like that?
You think I don't want to arrest them?
Then why did we sacrifice one of our men?
How can you call yourself a cop?
Take it easy!
Forget it, Sergeant
I'm sorry about the death of your man
But I tried my best
Calm down
We're family
One way or the other we'll bring these guys down
You can go now, Sergeant
Yes, Sir
Pao
I think you need some time off
Not before I've closed this case, Sir
With the reunification coming, we should be thinking only one thing:
Peace
Word hard
Yes, Sir
Officer Pao
Mak Kwan's girlfriend sold her bar for $300,000
Bill, keep an eye on her round the clock
I want to be informed of her every move
Yes, Sir
The judge has arrived
Help
Catch that idiot! Catch him!
Help. . .
On your knees
Take her up! . . .
Whether he makes it or not, it's none of our business
Does it hurt?
It's better
What do you have a report?
This guy lives in the nearby village
He saw the suspect board a speedboat heading for Mainland China
Mainland China?
Impossible!
Sir, I saw the boat head for China
Jackie
Get a statement at the jail
Go now
What kind of statement do you mean?
Interrogate anyone who had any contact with Mak
Prisoners he hung out with anyone who visited him
Yes, Sir
Impossible
Mak escaped for a big job. He has no reason to return to China
Officer Pao
Mak's girlfriend is getting a ticket for Macau
Stop her from going, I don't care how
Take her to the station if you have to
But that'll arouse attention
Our men can tail her
It's not necessary to expose ourselves
I can't lose her, got it?
Yes, Sir
Jackie, what's the matter with you? Why aren't you going?
If I take one of the cars, you only have one left
You won't all fit
What has that got to do with you?
If there's no room, they can walk
I'll take the helicopter!
Miss Chung, I'm afraid you can't leave Hong Kong
Why not? I haven't committed any crime
We have the right to detain you for 48 hours
We hope you'll cooperate with us
OK. So, I won't leave
Fine me for littering, if you wish
How are you?
No complaints
How are you?
Congratulations on your freedom, buddy
Let's have a toast
Come on, cheers
Where is Chan Wah?
The cops killed him and Sung
That first time we tried to free you, the cops recognized Wah
and there was a shoot out
Can the cops identify you now?
It's possible
There are only three of us left
Should we give it up?
I killed the architect
I escaped from prison. You think I'd quit now?
The show must go on
Good
Another toast
Don't take any photos
How did Chung escape?
The girl drove in. I tailed her
God knows, she had a monthly ticket. I couldn't pay
You're too careless!
If your mind's on gambling, how can you work?
Sir, I didn't
No? What's this?
Sir
That's not for racing
If you don't trust me, how can I work with you?
I quit
Sir, Bill is trying. Give him a chance
Get him
Yes, Sir
Bill
Officer Pao isn't himself
He wants you back
Since Yung was killed
I haven't gambled
Let's do it for Yung
This drainage pipe was there before construction began
To divert it would be too costly
So, when they designed the building
they worked around it
How can you be so sure?
I studied civil engineering in college
If the architect
hadn't also built the vault
this would have stayed a secret
How do you operate the outer door?
They use two combination locks
It must be opened by two people at the same time
Before it's closed
they have to set a time lock
Only on the following morning
can anyone open the outer door
So there's plenty of time to move the money out
You're late!
Where's the girl?
She's gone! She went that way
Follow me
Go check over there
It's not easy to kill someone
Come on, Kwan, they've seen us
Kwan!
Come on! . . .
Hurry up! Run!
Let's go
Police! Freeze!
Go
Out of my way
Sorry, Sir
Take it easy. Your anger isn't going to help break this case
Even though no bystanders were shot
Your actions caused the accident
You'd better come up with a good excuse for the report
Thank you, Sir
Officer Pao, please
Mak Kwan
I just called to see how the motorcyclist was doing
He's fine. Thanks for your concern . How about you?
You remind me of my friend in high school
We were always fighting to be number one in the class
I remember
One year, he lost
I saw him crying in the toilet stall
That made me sad, too
I hate the feeling of losing
Mak just called me on my mobile phone
Have somebody trace the call
Give me a racing form
Sir, I don't gamble
When is the horse racing season over?
It'll last a few more weeks
Any special event this year?
The betting's gone crazy in Hong Kong. The total bet is over 1 billion
Over 400 million was bet on 3T
The Chief Executive Cup Race is coming up
They estimate the bets will exceed 2 billion
Are you thinking they're going to rob the Jockey Club?
Mak lost the savings and, thus, his future to the Jockey Club
He can't admit failure
So, he's going to take revenge
I know he will!
Let's see what they're doing
There're over 1 30 betting counters inside the track
After the races, the money's picked up
and counted by the head cashier
Then the money's escorted by security officers
How many people does it take to count 1 billion?
And how long does it take?
Until it's all counted
If there're any mistake, no one can leave
When does the armored car leave?
That's classified . I can't answer your question
Afterwards the banks would be closed
Where do you store the money?
Is there a vault at the race track?
Mrs. Pao? I've come to read the meter
Please come in
This is the director of the Jockey Club
This is Officer Pao
How do you do?
What exactly do you want to know?
You must have your own vault, right?
Without the consent of the Board of Directors
we can say nothing
Look, some criminals intend to rob the Jockey Club
We got this blueprint of one of the suspects
Is this the blueprint for the Jockey Club's vault?
I really wish you could cooperate with us
I need to get permission from the directors before I can answer
Permission
Go to hell!
What's going on? What happened?
Could you have kicked the switched by accident?
It's a beautiful day today
for the Chief Executive Cup Race
The track is crowded to overflowing with people
The accumulated total for betting
has reached over 1 .8 billion dollars!
And it's broken another record!
This is Mr. Lau . He's in charge of the vault
He's the most knowledgeable about the money operations
Please answer Officer Pao's question
Of course, Mr. Chan
I need to know if the money stays
in the vault after the races?
After counting, the money is transferred to the insurance company
The money that hasn't been counted stays in our vault
And it's counted and transported the next day
Officer Pao, the last race has started
The horses are rushing
toward the finish
Cyprus is running as fast as Lightening Go. . .
Cyprus has passed
I'm a Winner and Brasa
And it's Cyprus!
You know me well. You know I'm going to rob the Jockey Club
You deserve a present
I've left one in an abandoned car on the 3rd floor of the garage
I guarantee it will give you an everlasting memory
Trace the call
The rest of you come with me
Toss our your lunches!
Don't touch the car!
Officer Pao
Stop the car!
Spread out!
Get the bomb squad down here
Calling control, this is PC 3372
We've traced Mak Kwan's call
He used your wife's mobile phone
You'd better get back home
Let us deal with this
You get to your home
Get a team over there. I'm on my way
We're really making the police jump through hoops
Tomorrow when they find
the Jockey Club's been robbed
They're going to look very stupid
Kwan, don't be nervous
It'll be fine
Let's go
Ready, Boss
Here he comes
- Officer Pao - How are my wife and son?
I don't know. The team's up there now
- Sir - Officer Pao
Daddy
There was a man. He said he was here to read the meter
I let him in and he tied us up
Then he locked us in a room
I don't know when he left
And then the police showed up
Daddy
- Hey - Yes
Have you found anything?
He set at your table, ate your food and read your paper
We haven't found anything else
You've got to get out right now! You can't stay here!
Hurry! This guy sets bombs
Arrange a car for my wife
Right
Sam, arranged a car for Office Pao
Yes, Sir
Is this car for me?
Yes. Where do you want me to take them?
Find a safe hotel
and I want round-the-clock surveillance
Which hotel, Officer Pao?
Find one! Do I have to do it for you?
Darling
Have him take us to the police station. We'll be safe there
Do what you have to do
We'll wait for you there
But you've got to be careful, OK?
Please be careful
I'll be fine
Go on
This is Pao, what's the status?
The bomb squad is here
It's a mercury switch so they don't want to move it
They want to detonate it on-site
This is just a diversion
They must already be on the move
Let me know if anything breaks
That's all
Anything happens?
No
Bill, this is Pao, how's the bomb?
It was a dummy, a fake one
A fake?
What's happening?
Go find out
What's going on?
Everything's in order
Show me. Hurry!
The vault has a time lock
If it's not the fixed time, we can't open it
So, what'll we do?
We have to wait until 9 a. m.
There's got to be another way
The Directors have an override code
Then why aren't you calling them?
Kwan
Send someone to check the circuit breakers
What happened?
Hurry!
What are you doing? Help me
Mak Kwan must be inside
What's the problem?
Mr. Lau isn't home
I'll try his mobile phone
What's this?
If some of the staff get locked in
We can pass them food and water through here
What about the inside door?
It opens from inside
Mak Kwan!
I know you're in there
Officer Pao
I know you're a good cop
I don't mean to oppose you
But we are standing on two different sides
I come to get back what I lost
I apologize for threatening your family
Stop talking nonsense! You won't get away with this
I believe if one can imagine it, one can do it
He's right
You can't escape
They know who you are
You should join Chan Wah
It'll be safer
You killed Chan Wah?
That's right
How's it?
Thank you, Sir
We've got the code
Hurry up!
What are you staring at?
Are you trying to stay with me for the rest of my life?
Don't make me wait for you
It's ready
Sir, be careful
Kwan!
Where's the Taiwanese?
Put the money in the car
Stop it! Stop!
No!
Get up!
Stop! . . .
Stop fighting!
Let him go!
Kwan!
No! I beg you
Kwan!
Shoot
You had a lot to say about the first time you killed
So what's it like killing the second guy?
Shoot and you'll know
Get up
Get up!
No!
Drop the gun!
Don't force me!
Drop the gun!
Don't force me!
Drop it!
Don't make me shoot!
Help!
Drop the gun!
I mean it, I'll shoot!
Honey!
Darling, are you all right?
I'm fine. Don't worry
How's the baby?
He's embarrassing me
Whenever he sees your colleagues
he says 'Yes, Sir'
He's being good. He helped me tidy your office
Now, he's sleeping on your desk
Don't let him catch cold
I won't. How is your case?
Closed
Congratulations
Honey
I really love you and the baby
Are you sure you're all right?
I'm fine
When will you come take us home?
I'm sending someone to pick you up now
- We'll be waiting - I have to go
- Bye-bye - Bye-bye
