"I, Fok Chi-ho, solemnly declare
the following statement"

"I confirm that I will give
a full and accurate testimony"

based solely on the facts,

"the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth".

Calling Central Control! Car 21!

We are in Kam Tin and require backup!

An EU vehicle was attacked
We need an ambulance!

There are around 1 5 male suspects,
heavily armed!

Please send reinforcements!

On July 27th, 2017,

I received orders from headquarters

stating that one of our EU vehicles
was attacked.

The suspects responsible for this attack

belonged to a criminal gang
that we were chasing.

Open fire! Three in front!

Suppress fire!

Go!

Take cover!

Officer Lee, one on your left!

Man down! Cover!

Ten people in Zone B!

We're under heavy fire!

A colleague is injured!

Cover Officer Fok!

Officer Fok, cover me!

Go to hell, pigs!

Eight more in Zone B!

All-round defense!

Hold on!

Officer Fok, above you!

Stoppage! Cover me!

Out of the way! Bomb!

Based on what you saw,

what was the first defendant doing

at the scene?

I saw Officer Leung May-yee

chasing the first defendant,
Cheung Man-bing.

Hold it!

Stop!

I saw the first defendant escape
through the back door,

so I gave chase.

When you were carrying out your mission
and pursuing my client,

were you wearing your police ID?

The situation was chaotic

I did lose my ID.

In other words, it was not clear
that you were a police officer.

I had no idea she was a police officer.

After I heard gunshots,

a crazy woman
rushed at me, trying to attack me.

At that time, Officer Leung attempted

to subdue the first defendant,

Cheung Man-bing, from behind.

In other words, my client was attacked
by someone from behind

I absolutely disagree.

He was forced to defend himself,
which resulted in an unfortunate accident.

Officer Leung reasonably attempted

to subdue the first defendant,
Cheung Man-bing,

who was intentionally resisting arrest.

Go to hell!

The prosecution pointed out

that you had no reason
to be at that deserted ruin.

How do you explain it?

I wanted to film some supernatural things

to post on my YouTube channel.

We couldn't find any photography equipment
at the crime scene.

The defendant is giving false testimony,

openly disrespecting the court.

In this era, a mobile phone
can easily be used to film with.

The prosecution's accusations
are unreasonable.

All ten of the suspects arrested
deny any acquaintance with my client,

which is sufficient to prove

that my client has no connection
to this case whatsoever.

They wouldn't rat their boss out!

Are you for real?

S I le n ce!

Your Honor,

it is highly likely
that these suspects are lying,

so their testimonies are unreliable.

The fact is that after the police
conducted their forensic search,

no fingerprints or DNA
belonging to my client were found,

either at the crime scene
or on the firearms.

The prosecution has made accusations
against my client

without any evidence or witnesses,

which amounts to defamation

I must remind the jury

that even if you have doubts
about my client's presence at the scene,

the benefit of the doubt
belongs to the defendant

I earnestly request
that you pronounce my client not guilty

because it is the only reasonable verdict.

Your Honor,

I request a reopening
of the prosecution's case

and the summoning of new witnesses.

On what basis?

You should know the law.

Due to the prosecution's failure
to prove the charges

against the defendant
without reasonable doubt,

and considering
the jury's unanimous decision,

I hereby pronounce
the defendant Cheung Man-bing

not guilty of the charges
of possessing firearms,

assaulting a police officer,
and resisting arrest.

He is to be released immediately.

Law enforcement

is just the beginning of the legal process.

If there are any small cracks,

justice will pass us by.

Get off.

Move!

Let's go!

Officer Fok, all the best!

It'll only be a change of scenery.

Stay strong and keep true.

- Stay strong and keep true!
- Stay strong and keep true!

ONE DEAD, SEVEN INJURED
IN MONG KOK JEWELRY STORE HEIST

HEROIC COP CHASED DOWN THREE ROBBERS

SEVEN YEARS LATER

The defendant
stabbed the victim over 20 times,

with many bone-deep.

What's your approach going to be?

After committing the murder,
the killer stayed at the crime scene.

She even stated that she had long wanted
to kill the victim.

The evidence is conclusive for murder.

However, we need to take note

that the crime scene is the victim's home.

The knife that the defendant used
was arbitrarily picked up in the house.

The crime wasn't premeditated
A murder charge might not work.

No fingerprints were found.

She consciously cleaned up the scene

and then stayed there,
waiting for the police to arrest her.

Don't you find that strange?

Mr Fok,

you were in the police force for years.

Now you've joined
the Department of Justice.

You must have valuable insights.

It's just a change in work environment.

Well, let's look at this together.

I have a different perspective.

Most of the fatal wounds on the victim
were concentrated on the left side.

Like this.

But the suspect is left-handed.

She would need a reverse grip like so.

It is possible but somewhat awkward.

Let's not forget

that the victim was a man
weighing over 200 pounds,

even stronger than Benny here

Benny, please,
could you help demonstrate?

Maggie, right?

Yes Hello.

First, try to struggle with each other

Maggie, try stabbing Benny.

- Okay Here I come!
- Come on

I'm stabbing you - Do it Harder!

Okay.

Thank you.

So we can see from this

that it is difficult for a petite lady

who only weighs 90 pounds or so

to overpower a man
weighing over 200 pounds,

one who exercises regularly,

and commit this kind of crime.

In other words,

there might be another suspect involved.

That's my perspective.

It seems we have different opinions.

How about a bet to settle it?
Five hundred bucks each.

Sure - Let's do it.

Let's use beer instead of money.

If I lose, it's my treat - Sure thing!

If you win, we'll treat you.

Okay - Sure, let's do that.

Mr Fok.

Yes?

My name is Bao Ding.

Hello - I'm the pupil supervisor

I mentor all the newcomers.

- Nice to meet you.
- I'll assist you with your first cases.

If you need anything, come to me anytime.

The police arrest suspects,

and we, the DOJ,
are responsible for prosecuting

and convicting the arrested suspects.

This is your first case.

Earlier this year,
Customs received a tip-off

that someone was importing 1 kg of cocaine

from Brazil
in the form of a mailed package.

So the police
conducted a surveillance operation

and traced it back
to first defendant Ma Ka-kit's home.

They arrested him
when he received the package.

I'm coming!

Are you Ma Ka-kit?

Yes, I am.

Sign here.

FROM BRAZIL TO MA KA-KIT, HONG KONG

Police! This is my badge.

We suspect
that your package contains drugs

Ka-kit!

Freeze!

- Stop!
- Stop there!

I've got nothing to do with this!

I really don't know anything!

- Ka-kit!
- Sir, we found something.

This parcel isn't mine!
I only lent someone my address!

From Ma Ka-kit's arrest
to his arrival at the police station,

he insisted that he only lent his address

to the second defendant
in the case, Chan Kwok-wing,

and the police actually found drugs
at Chan Kwok-wing's residence

I want a lawyer.

They were caught red-handed.

There's nothing to debate.

However, after being detained
for three months,

Ma Ka-kit changed his testimony

and claimed that he didn't
lend his address to Chan Kwok-wing.

What's your opinion?

Ma Ka-kit has no criminal record,

but his testimony is contradictory,
which means he's lying.

Chan has a history of drug possession,
and drugs were found at his house.

Let's charge both of them
because both of them are suspects.

The defense's strategy is key.

Whatever plans you have,

you need approval from Mr Yeung first.

That's the rule Please follow it.

Understood Thank you.

And about your offer
to buy the beer if you lose,

it's good to have confidence.

Mr Bao,

I like to drink beer.

It's difficult for you to avoid a conviction

since you were caught red-handed

I suggest you plead guilty

because doing so now
can reduce your sentence by one-third

I only received 1,000 bucks
for lending my address

I didn't know there were drugs!

Do I still have to go to prison?

Ka-kit,

we all believe you didn't do it,

but there's no evidence to prove
that Chan Kwok-wing used your address.

If we lose the trial,

we will appeal.

If we win,
the Department of Justice will appeal.

Each appeal requires scheduling,

which means
you will wait endlessly in prison.

Ms Lee's advice is the best
and the fastest way to get you out.

So after Ka-kit pleads guilty,
can he proceed to the trial immediately

without waiting in prison?

Actually, there are still many procedures
and formalities before the trial,

and Chan Kwok-wing's lawyer
will also take action.

You're Chan Kwok-wing, right?

The police found drugs in your house.

And Ma Ka-kit has implicated you,

saying that you used his address
to receive the package.

The DOJ will charge you

with possession of
and conspiracy to traffic drugs.

How should I work with you?

The first thing we need to do
is clarify to the police

that Ka-kit
has changed his not-guilty plea

to a guilty plea.

The police will then
hand over the documents to the DOJ.

CONFESSION REPORT, MA KA-KIT

After the DOJ reviews it,
they will file charges.

The court will then schedule the trial,

where Ka-kit will plead guilty
and seek leniency.

Due to the large number of cases
the court has to handle,

the later you decide,
the longer you will have to wait.

But if Ka-kit pleads guilty earlier,

we can immediately schedule the case
in the High Court

for Ka-kit to appear and seek leniency.

CONFESSION REPORT, MA KA-KIT

Don't say I didn't warn you.

When you were a cop,
you worshiped the God of War.

In the DOJ, we worship Mr Yeung.

Remember that.

Hello, Mr Bao.

Hello, what can I do for you?

I am Lee Sze-man,
Ma Ka-kit's representative lawyer.

Are you open to a plea bargain?

What are the terms?

My client will admit to drug trafficking

on the condition that the prosecution
withdraw the charge against Chan

for conspiracy to traffic drugs.

You represent Ma,

but you're seeking to withdraw
the charge against Chan.

That's unreasonable.

Ma Ka-kit changed his testimony

because of his guilt,

stating that it has nothing
to do with Chan Kwok-wing.

He doesn't want to hurt a good person.

Chan Kwok-wing
has a history of drug possession,

while Ma Ka-kit has a clear record

I have no reason
to spare Chan rather than Ma.

Conspiracy will result
in a more severe punishment.

So excluding any conspiracy with Chan

is completely in line
with my client's interests.

Sorry, I don't accept it

Shirley.

Mr Yeung - Morning.

Morning.

Plea bargaining is a good thing.

The defendant recognizes their mistake

and pleads guilty,
saving time and taxpayers' money

I agree to it.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Hello Good morning.

Mr Yeung, this is
the newly appointed prosecutor,

Fok Chi-ho.

Hi, Mr Fok.

Welcome - I'm here to learn.

We'll go through the formalities in court,

and then this case can be concluded.

Thank you.

Mr Yeung,

why not charge the second defendant?

What about the prosecution code?

In the first defendant's testimony,
it has been continually emphasized

that the second defendant
isn't connected to this case,

so I don't want to waste time.

How is it a waste of time?

Our job is to prosecute,

have a trial,

find the truth,

and convict.

The DOJ's principle

has always been
to charge if there is evidence

and to release if there is none.

Firstly, if the first defendant admits
to drug trafficking,

we can charge the second defendant

with drug possession,

which means both individuals
who have committed a crime

will go to prison.

What more do you want?

Your case involves drug trafficking
through the mail,

so strictly speaking,

whether or not others were involved
in drug trafficking

is irrelevant to you.

You're a prosecutor
You should understand that, right?

It's almost ten o'clock.

Okay Court.

A defendant pleads guilty,
and both criminals will be sentenced.

That's fair What else do you want?

Case number ESCC235/2023,

the first defendant, Ma Ka-kit,

and the second defendant, Chan Kwok-wing,

are suspected of conspiracy
to traffic drugs.

Your Honor,

the defense has reached an agreement
with the prosecution.

My client, the first defendant, Ma Ka-kit,

will admit
to the charge of drug trafficking.

Does the prosecution agree?

Your Honor,

the DOJ will amend the charge
against the first defendant, Ma Ka-kit,

to drug trafficking

and withdraw the charge
against the second defendant

for conspiracy to traffic drugs,

but we will retain the charge
of drug possession against him.

Ma Ka-kit,

you are accused of mailing 1 kg of cocaine

from overseas to your residence.

You were arrested there
by the police while receiving the package.

Now the charge against you
is drug trafficking.

How do you plead?

I plead guilty.

Can I receive a reduced sentence?

The sentencing will take place
at the next hearing.

This bench will now pronounce

that the charge of conspiracy
to traffic drugs

against Chan Kwok-wing is withdrawn.

The drug possession case
will be scheduled for trial.

The first defendant, Ma Ka-kit,

who admits to drug trafficking,

will be referred to the High Court
for leniency sentencing.

The defendant will remain in custody.

Court adjourned.

Court!

We want to finish work early,

just like prisoners want
to be released early.

What's the problem?

There's no problem.

You are in charge of Ma Ka-kit's case.

You've interviewed him.

What do you think?

Initially, he resisted arrest,

but after being brought
to the police station, he cooperated.

He kept saying
it had nothing to do with him

and that he only lent his address.

Would a criminal admit to being guilty?

I heard he had a difficult background.

How so?

It hurts! That's not how you do it!

You wasted everything!

Why can't you learn to do it right?

You're so useless!

Please stop!

You can't learn anything!

When he was young,
his dad died from a drug overdose,

and his drug-addict mom

beat him so badly
that he was hospitalized.

- Stop!
- Stop hitting her!

But incredibly,

his grandpa beat up his mom

and took custody of him,

so he didn't have to go to an orphanage.

His mom deserved to be beaten.

Even you say so!

There's the bastard!

Hey!

You bastard, don't chase me!

Stop!

I'm a cop!

Are you playing dumb?

Come and help!

Buddy!

Are you causing trouble here?

You're under arrest
for suspicion of drug trafficking!

Stop resisting!

Grab your weapons!

You bastard!

Making trouble?

Assaulting a police officer!

Get him! Kill him!

What are you looking for?

Hey! Get over here and help!

Police! You are surrounded!

Drop all your weapons now!

Hold still!

Don't move!

Get down here!

Get down here immediately!

Is it serious?

I'll treat it as a mark of honor.

We've been after these drug traffickers
for a long time Thank you.

You have a tough job.

Nothing special Back to work now.

Hey.

Remember, you're in charge now.

Drug trafficker,
you'll be pissing here for life.

Get lost!

Watch where you're going.

I know you're not used to prison life.

Even if you can't sleep,
try to rest as much as you can.

Otherwise, how can you
stay strong mentally?

I'll be fine

I can take care of myself.

How about you?

It has been so hot lately.

Will you use the fan?

Don't try to save on the electricity bill.

What do you say?

You don't have to worry about me.

When did I start worrying about you?

I'm just asking a few questions.

Why don't you go back
to Shanghai and visit Mr Bong?

Go and see him - I could go at any time.

We'll go together when you are released.

Don't bother waiting for me.

If you behave well,
your sentence will be reduced.

You'll be released soon.

Not for several years.

What?

Didn't Ms Lee say that pleading guilty
reduces your sentence?

- You're a first-time offender!
- I have a cellmate.

He got sentenced
to eight years for 200 g of drugs.

Me?

I had 1 kg.

Is it calculated that way?

When I get out,

will you still be around?

I talked to a legal aid lawyer,

and he said Ka-kit's case can be fought.

He's preparing to help us
overturn the guilty plea.

You just have to admit to misleading.

- Then Ka-kit will be fine.
- We didn't mislead anyone.

You knew all the facts,

and there's even a signed confession
from Ma Ka-kit.

You bastards!

You knew that Ka-kit didn't do anything!

You said we would lose
and advised him to plead guilty

for a reduced sentence!

With good behavior credits
and deducting holidays,

he'll be out in around ten years

I won't live to see ten years!

Call the police.

There's no need for that.

You should go.

Go.

There was a teenage boy

wrongly accused of murder.

There were doubts about his case.

The boss said he must be prosecuted.

The police officers said
that they wouldn't investigate further.

What did you do?

Those British guys wouldn't do it,

so I went to find evidence on my own.

In the end, that boy

was released without charge, right?

How did you know?

You've talked about this case

many times.

It happened over 40 years ago.

You even solved the case.

Your boss

even awarded you this medal.

I thought this case happened
just five days ago.

Anyway,

law enforcers must stay true
to their mission.

Even if one day you can't walk like me,

you won't have any regrets.

You're just stopping for a rest.

After talking for so long,

do you still remember who I am?

I'm hungry.

Take me back to the nursing home.

Okay.

Why are you so slow?

Back in the day,

I, your dad,

saw some thieves
rob a jewelry store and get on a bus

I chased it all the way
from Mong Kok to Tsim Sha Tsui

until I caught them!

Can you speed up?

Can you handle it?

Of course I can.

Then hold on tight!

Let's go!

Are you okay? Is this fast enough?

ONE DEAD, SEVEN INJURED
IN MONG KOK JEWELRY STORE HEIST

HEROIC COP CHASED DOWN THREE ROBBERS

Your Honor,

the first defendant,
as in my client, Ma Ka-kit,

has no understanding of the law.

He pleaded guilty under the influence
of his former lawyer's misguidance.

This situation is extremely unfair,

so I would like to apply
to overturn the guilty plea.

Does the prosecution have any remarks?

I have no remarks, Your Honor.

How could you offer no remarks
when they asked for a reverse plea?

Are you intentionally giving way?

We won the case
You intentionally ceded our advantage.

Mr Fok, I don't understand
what you're doing.

Actually, Ma Ka-kit
has always wanted a reduced sentence.

So admitting guilt was enough, right?

Why do the reverse plea, then?

Why gamble with his ten-year sentence?

What if he's being misled?

All we're doing
is giving him another chance.

The Department of Justice
is responsible for prosecution.

Our main duty is to convict the accused.

Mr Fok, now you're helping the defense.

What are you trying to do?

Do you want to prove his innocence?

That's not how I see it

I believe that as prosecutors,
we should convict the guilty

and establish the innocence
of the innocent.

Ma Ka-kit plead guilty
and then plead not guilty.

It's clear

that one of those is a lie.

Or maybe both are lies.

Playing along with him
is a waste of manpower, resources,

and the most precious thing,
time, Mr Fok.

Okay, Mr Bao,

I want you to summon Lee Sze-man
and Au Pak-man

to testify in court
regarding Ma Ka-kit's lack of honesty.

Okay.

And regarding this case,

I want to assign you
as the lead prosecutor.

Please demonstrate to Mr Fok

how prosecutors handle cases.

Excuse me.

Lunchtime.

That's all.

Court!

Since this case
involves an on-site arrest,

the prosecution has decided

to continue prosecuting
the first and second defendants.

The prosecution
will first summon Inspector Lee King-wai,

who was responsible
for the arrest operation, to testify.

When we went to arrest Ma Ka-kit that day,

he attempted to escape.

My client saw unfamiliar individuals
without uniforms

holding questionable identification,

so he got scared and ran.

Are false documents a reasonable excuse?

Did the entire team of officers
deceive him with false documents?

Unbelievable!

No, Your Honor,

I just want to point out
that my client was terrified at that time

I have no other questions, Your Honor.

"I, Lee Sze-man, sincerely and truthfully

declare and confirm

that all the testimony I give
will be the truth,

the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth...

Ms Lee Sze-man, as far as you know,

why did Ma Ka-kit plead guilty?

Was he aware of the crime
he was confessing to?

Ma Ka-kit wanted a reduced sentence,
so he pleaded guilty.

All the documents
have his personal signature,

so he was fully aware
of the crime he confessed to.

Ms Lee,

do you admit that you misled my client
into pleading guilty?

My client committed a crime
and wanted a reduced sentence

I suggest you plead guilty

because doing so now
can reduce your sentence by one-third.

Ms Lee's advice is the best
and the fastest way to get you out

I was certainly helping him
in a lawful manner.

Bitch, it was you who said
that we would lose the trial

and told Ka-kit to plead guilty!

She is lying in court right now!
Why isn't she being arrested?

Is there no rule of law?

Sir, please respect the court
or I will have to ask you to leave.

As a judge, you should ensure fairness!

- Instead, you're protecting her!
- Bailiff.

Ask him to leave and calm down.

She's getting away with lying!

Is there no rule of law?

Why isn't she being arrested?

Counsel for the second defendant,
you may begin your cross-examination.

Thank you, Your Honor.

Ms Lee,

when the first defendant
pleaded guilty initially,

did he clearly and explicitly state

that he did not lend his address
to my client, Chan Kwok-wing?

The testimony clearly states

that he did not
lend his address to anyone.

In other words,

this case concerns the criminal acts
of the first defendant,

so my client has been innocent
from start to finish.

Do you agree?

You can say that.

Mr Au Pak-man,

as the assistant
to the former defense counsel,

you have been involved in this case.

Can you describe the relationship
between the first defendant and your team?

All our conversations
were based on mutual trust,

so the relationship
can be described as good.

Your Honor, I have no further questions.

I do.

Prosecutor, do you want
to conduct a second cross-examination?

Yes, Your Honor.

Mr Au Pak-man,

the first defendant, Ma Ka-kit,

said that you

and Ms Lee Sze-man misled him.

Why would he say that?

Perhaps due to his lack of education,

he is easily influenced

and has a naive personality.

He tends to believe what people tell him.

Did you tell him to plead guilty

because he is naive

and easily influenced?

Prosecutor,

do you know what you are doing?

You're shooting yourself in the foot.

This is not a playground.

Your Honor, please do not misunderstand

I must first understand
the character of the first defendant

in order to assess the credibility

of the testimony he provided.

Then please pay attention
to the logic of your questioning, okay?

Let me ask in a different way.

Mr Au,

are you defending
the first defendant for free?

Yes.

Our law firm
has always had pro bono cases.

"Pro bono cases"
means you provide free legal defense,

as it is usually defined.

Would you first establish

whether the person
you are helping for free

is guilty or not guilty?

I disagree with what you just said.

Even if Ma Ka-kit is guilty,

I would still advocate
for leniency for him.

So you told him to plead guilty.

In my opinion,
all young people are inherently good.

Even if Ma Ka-kit is guilty,

he should be given a chance.

So, if the court were
to find him guilty today,

I would hope for a lenient sentence.

Objection!

I object to the witness
implying that my client is guilty.

What are you objecting to?

He is advocating
for leniency for your client.

Objection overruled.

Your Honor, allow me
to finish my questions.

Mr Au, let me ask you again.

Did you advise the first defendant

to take responsibility
for a crime he didn't commit?

I don't know how to answer

such a leading question.

The witness doesn't need to answer.

Prosecutor, you're shooting yourself
in the foot again.

What are you doing?

With all due respect, Your Honor,

I respectfully request you,

the jury, and everyone else
to consider this.

If the defendant can receive
a reduced sentence by pleading guilty,

and he has already accomplished it.

Why would he overturn his own testimony

and his guilty plea?

There is no logic!

So I have reason

to question the evidence provided
by the two witnesses.

Prosecutor,

are you trying to turn your witnesses
into hostile witnesses?

Your Honor,

I just want fairness, justice,
and to objectively assist the court

in finding the truth

I have no more questions.

Mr Au,

when the first defendant, Ma Ka-kit,
initially pleaded guilty,

did he submit three letters
requesting leniency?

Yes.

We submitted those materials to the court

for consideration
towards a reduced sentence.

The court has archived all three letters,

and everyone can review them carefully.

The first letter

was written by an executive director
of a listed company.

Mr Au, have you ever considered
or had doubts

about how and under what circumstances
the first defendant, Ma Ka-kit,

would know or have the opportunity to know

an executive director of a listed company?

As his legal team,

even if we have doubts,
we must act in good faith.

Understood.

The second letter was written
by a social worker,

stating that Ma Ka-kit had often
participated in volunteer activities.

However, upon investigation,
the organization stated

that they never organized the activities
mentioned in the letter.

What are your thoughts, Mr Au?

It would be inappropriate
for me to comment.

Your Honor,

I believe you should not allow the defense

to continue his questioning
regarding these letters,

as they are irrelevant to the case

I agree, Your Honor.

Sit down.

Mr Ho, continue.

Thank you, Your Honor.

The final letter

was claimed by Ma Ka-kit
to be written by his former boss.

It states that he is
a diligent and honest person.

The letter mentions that his employment
started in December 2019,

but that company
had already been liquidated in 2017,

so this letter was actually forged
by Ma Ka-kit.

These letters were arranged by them!

How is it my fault?

Your Honor,

I would like to respectfully submit

regarding what the defense just said.

Until the authenticity of
these three leniency letters is confirmed,

the defense's hasty attack
on the first defendant

is surely damaging the integrity
of the first defendant, no?

Objection, Your Honor - Your Honor.

Your Honor, I object

I request a 15-minute recess.

You haven't done anything!

Your Honor, I also want to remind you

that if these three letters
could possibly have been forged,

they cannot be used as evidence.

Mr Fok, what exactly do you want?

Defense is my responsibility
What are you trying to do?

Mr Cheng, you said
your client was misled.

Is that just a theory?
Do you have any evidence?

I don't have evidence
to prove that he was misled,

but there is also no evidence
to prove that he wasn't misled.

- And the benefit...
- Mr Cheng, my learned friend.

My learned friend,

could you please be more professional?

You should help your client find evidence.

If you can't find evidence, find witnesses.

You are so useless
You are talking nonsense.

How are you a defense lawyer?

Mr Bao,

this prosecutor of yours

is constantly asking questions
beneficial to the defendant.

This is completely illogical.

And he's openly insulting

the opposing lawyer in court.

Totally ridiculous!

If you can't control your people,

I will hold you in contempt of court.

Your Honor,
Mr Fok is not being contemptuous.

He just wants to employ
a creative questioning approach.

Your Honor, it has nothing
to do with Mr Bao

I hope you can carefully examine

whether Ma Ka-kit was truly misled or not.

Mr Fok,

when I was in your position,
you were still wearing diapers

I remind you

that you are in no position
to teach me how to see clearly.

On the contrary,
I'll teach you how to see clearly.

As the prosecutor,

defending the defendant is not
your responsibility!

So come back!

Your Honor, I apologize,

but I would like to kindly remind you
that our duty in criminal prosecution

is not solely
to ensure the defendant's conviction,

but to present credible evidence

of the crimes we are prosecuting

to the jury.

Are you teaching me
how to do my job again?

Should I take off my robe
and give it to you to wear?

Do you want my wig?

Your Honor, I want to say
that your actions have already influenced

the jury's perception
of the first defendant.

So I request
that you immediately dismiss the jury

and order a retrial.

Court is adjourned.

Court!

I'm at a loss for words.

Have some coffee.

Thanks.

You need to assess the situation.

It's like a police baton.

Extend only when necessary
Retract otherwise.

You'll suffer
if you keep it extended all the time.

At 3:30 p m, I'll watch your trial.

Won't you stay to see the verdict?

It doesn't matter if I watch it.

We need to remember
that there must be a majority consensus

for a ruling to be valid.

So seven to zero, six to one,
or five to two are okay.

If it's four to three, there will be a retrial.

Mr Fok,

the courtroom is truly a strange place.

A bunch of people well-versed in the law
fight tooth and nail.

Then the decision is left to seven people
who are ignorant of the law.

But you did well just now.

Don't worry too much about the outcome.

We all have one goal,
and that is to help Ka-kit.

Mr Au, cut the bullshit.

Chief Juror,

has a verdict been reached?

Yes.

Is the verdict unanimous?

No.

Is it a significant majority?

Yes.

What was the vote result?

Five to two.

Is the first defendant guilty or not guilty?

Guilty.

Is the second defendant guilty
or not guilty?

Not guilty.

You've been helping Chan Kwok-wing.

You pushed Ma Ka-kit
into the pit, didn't you?

I will now pronounce the sentence.

The first defendant, Ma Ka-kit,

is guilty of drug trafficking.

Due to his lack of remorse
and the waste of court resources,

he must be severely punished.

He is sentenced to 27 years in prison.

The second defendant, Chan Kwok-wing,
is acquitted and released.

Court is adjourned.

Court!

Ka-kit, you have to stay strong!

Ka-kit!

Stay strong!

Don't you worry!

I won't let you stay in prison for 27 years!

I wouldn't be alive to see you released!

Don't worry!

I'll find a way!

Sorry.

Believe me, I will help you.

The court sentenced me to 27 years.

How are you going to help me?

Mr Au, good morning.

Morning.

Mrs Cheung.

Hi - Debbie.

Hello, Pak-man.

Let me introduce Ms Lee,
who specializes in commercial fraud cases.

She can definitely help you.

You can trust me with your lawsuit.

KC

- You're back?
- Let me go first

I've taken on an additional civil case.

It's a piece of cake for you.

Last time, you mentioned
wanting a 10-karat diamond

I found one for you in Belgium Flawless.

Why do clients come to us?

Because they feel helpless.

Just like sick people going
to see a doctor,

sinners going to church for confession,

or people going
to a witch to curse someone.

It's all the same.

But you're different

because you know the law.

You're their savior.

It's all thanks to your selfless efforts

and tireless late nights

that the Department of Justice
can uphold the rule of law for society.

But there are still
many crises and challenges

I hope everyone stays committed
to their roles

and continues to uphold justice
for the citizens.

Mr Bao, thank you
for taking care of our colleagues.

You're welcome, Director

Fok Chi-ho.

Hello, Director.

Welcome to the DOJ family.

When you were in the police force,

you were famous for catching criminals

and working diligently.

We believe

that with your experience
as a police officer,

you can provide us
with a different perspective.

Now, Mr Yeung here has vast experience.

If you have any questions,

he can definitely give you
appropriate guidance.

You should work together closely.

Absolutely! I hope so

I will do my best to assist Mr Fok.

He's smart Rest assured,
there won't be any problems, Director

I know

that you have some doubts
about your first case, Mr Fok,

but as the prosecution,
even if we see issues,

only the defense can file an appeal.

At this stage, there isn't much
the Department of Justice can do

I understand, Director.

However, hypothetically speaking,
if the defendant, just hypothetically,

requests an appeal,

I really hope that you would
personally pay attention to this case.

Mr Fok, I'm curious why you are so eager

for the defendant to appeal.

The court has already
made a clear judgment,

so I want to know what the issue is.

Or are you just intent
on seeing the DOJ lose a lawsuit?

These are rational discussions
that are part of your daily work.

You may continue them another time.

But today, there's a most important task
that we must complete.

Hello, George!

Hi, Selina.

Selina!

It has been a while.

Do you remember? Next month,
we have our alumni golf tournament.

You're on my team!

Come early so we can take photos.

All right Make the arrangements.

Everyone, come over here.

We have a full house today - Yes.

Please have a seat.

Grand Judge.

Please sit.

Mr Yeung.

Grand Judge - Mr Bao.

Grand Judge.

Please sit.

Have a seat.

Director, your subordinate
also called me "Grand Judge".

He doesn't know the rules.

Everyone present can call me "Grand Judge"

except for you.

Right, Mr Yeung?

Before 1997,

all the judges in the higher courts
were called "Grand Judge".

So that's what everyone called me.

After 1997, the title was simplified
to "Judge," omitting the "Grand".

So, it's okay for any friends
I knew before 1997

to still call me "Grand Judge".

But as for you,

it's not very suitable, right?

Thank you for going easy on him

I should thank you

Marco, pour the wine.

Mr Fok.

Frankly,

as a judge, I only consider three rules.

There's no fourth.

Those are eyewitness testimony,
physical evidence,

and the jury's decision.

Honestly,

sometimes I know the defendant is guilty,

but if there's no evidence,
I have to let them go.

On the other hand,

sometimes I know they're innocent,

but if there seems to be evidence,
I have to make a tough judgment.

This is a historical legacy
I have to follow the rules.

Even as a "Grand Judge,"
I have to abide by the rules.

There's no reason
for you not to follow them

and just do as you please.

But this time, I understand.

It's your first time working
for the Department of Justice.

You have no experience

I'll forgive you this time.

Okay.

No need to talk shop Let's drink!

This bottle of wine is extraordinary

Parker gave it 100 points!

It's a 1992 Château LeBlanc.

Let's all try it!
I bought it at an auction in France.

In 1982, a lady was abandoned
and divorced by her husband.

While making the wine,
she cried throughout the grape-stomping,

and her tears fell into the grape juice.

So now, when you drink it,
there's a taste of her sorrow.

Let's all drink
and see if there's a hint of sadness.

Mr Fok,

can you taste the sadness?

A bottle that costs tens of thousands
means a glass costs thousands.

Yes.

It's the monthly income of a poor family
in Hong Kong.

Indeed, that's quite sorrowful.

I like your sense of humor.

You're a smart guy!

Mr Ma.

You had a part
in putting my grandson in prison!

Why are you here?

I understand how you feel.

Can you give me a few minutes?
I want to say something.

There have been many loopholes
in this case.

On behalf of the Department of Justice,
I apologize to you.

Additionally, I want to remind you

that as a citizen, you have the right
to exercise your civil rights

and file an appeal.

No need for your reminder - A reminder

I have already applied for it.

Mr Cheng told me
not to talk to anyone during this time.

All right - Don't mess with me!

I want you to have faith.

- Our society has the rule...
- Pretending to be good guys

I don't believe any of your nonsense!

You're a double-crosser.

You're all pretending to be the good guys.

Help!

Help!

Help!

We have finished
recording Mr Ma's statement.

He was attacked
right after applying for an appeal.

It's likely related to those two lawyers.

We recently seized several vehicles
transporting drugs,

and your case
is also related to drug trafficking.

You should watch your back.

Really, you don't have to accompany me.

I can go home by myself.

No problem It's on my way.

There's a lot of junk here Be careful.

This is my humble abode Excuse the mess.

Please sit

I'll open the window
to let some fresh air in.

Let me get you something to drink.

Damn!

Got away again.

Please have some tea.

Thanks.

Whenever it's pouring outside,

it leaks in here.

As the old Chinese saying goes,
"Water brings prosperity".

It's all right
so long as I don't starve to death.

Did your grandson draw these?

Yes, Ka-kit drew those.

He loves drawing tall buildings

and always says he wants me
to live in a better place.

As soon as he turned 18,
he applied for public housing.

Hopefully, in another two years,
we'll move into a new apartment together.

Mr Ma,

how did you find Lee Sze-man?

Through the boss of the restaurant
where Ka-kit works

I think his last name is Lau.

He saw how hardworking Ka-kit was,
so he introduced him to a legal executive.

The legal executive
introduced us to that bitch

and offered to help us for free.

We're too poor We didn't have a choice.

Just talking to a lawyer
costs a few thousand bucks.

How could I afford it?

What use are legal aid or the DOJ
to folks like us?

They're all government personnel
They can't help me.

After all this chaos, you must be hungry.

Don't be shy

I have two instant noodles left Perfect

I didn't realize I was hungry
until you mentioned it.

Just wait a second.

Mr Fok, everyone has left already.

Come It's happy hour Let's have a drink.

I found new clues in Ma Ka-kit's case.

We don't get paid for working overtime!

Ma Ka-kit's former boss, Lau Siu-keung,
provides a new lead in this case.

We need to find out

about his relationship
with Lee Sze-man and Au Pak-man.

That's the only way we can help Ma Ka-kit.

According to our intelligence reports,
Lau Siu-keung has opened many restaurants,

wine bars, and nightclubs in recent years.

He appears to be a legitimate businessman,

but in reality, he collaborates
with many triad leaders.

All his businesses are managed
by Au Pak-man's law firm.

That Lee Sze-man is really something!

She grew up in an orphanage,

and later Au Pak-Man paid
for her education in the United States,

where she also obtained a law license.

I would fall head over heels
for him too if I were her

I checked the DOJ's records.

Au Pak-man got his early release

because Lee Sze-man helped him
win the appeal.

Sum it up, Bao Ding.

Isn't it obvious enough?

They're a couple of crooks!

This Au Pak-man is impressive.

He has been in prison several times
for every crime under the sun,

yet he can still work in the legal field.

It's crazy

I can handle it.

Semen evidence is easy to handle

because he wasn't caught in the act.

Yes - Au Pak-man.

- Get lost!
- Fuck yourself!

Money laundering, right?

I take a 20% cut.

Whether it's 100 million
or 1 billion, I don't care.

In any case, I take a 20% commission.

The prison officers say

he diligently studied law in prison.

After being released,
he continued to commit crimes,

but every time, he managed
to win his cases by himself.

He met many influential figures in prison,
including someone you personally arrested.

Sang, from Cambodia.

Cash out.

Let's go.

Siu-keung,

the astrologers' prediction
for a bad year was right.

Several of our food trucks got busted,
and we lost the goods hidden in coconuts.

So I think we should lay low.

Halt the deliveries for now.

No deliveries?

The bosses will definitely throw a fit.

Throw a fit?

Let them throw a fit, then.

If we get stopped and searched
by the police,

I'm as good as dead.

One of them
must be behind Mr Ma's incident.

You're really something.

You're right Nothing escapes you.

It was either Tung or Sang.

Who else can it be?

That's why I always say
that fools will be fools.

They don't think before they act

Siu-keung,

you're a smart guy.

You're a civilized person.

So, in the future, whatever you do,

don't be as foolish as they are.

Okay?

Understood, boss.

Sang, please sit.

Please sit.

Your underling

stole a shipment of coconuts from me,

causing me to lose 50 million.

When will you compensate me?

You can only accuse him of stealing
if he has taken it for himself.

The police seized everything

I want to compensate you with the goods,
but Pak-man can't deliver.

Listen to what he has to say.

Personally, I think
that if we make deliveries now,

it's like handing them over to the police.

You won't necessarily lose 5 0 million
I'll personally make it up to you.

As for Tung,

I'll give you a 30% discount
on the next three shipments.

Everyone will be happy.

Such a wonderful deal.

Do you think money solves everything?

Sang,

I know what you want.

Let me go!

Tung, you're not going
to do this to me, are you?

I've followed you since I was a kid!
Are you really doing this to me?

Let me go!

Bastard!

- Put your hand out.
- My underling screwed up.

- Let go!
- I know what to do.

- Pak-man.
- We're going to shatter your hand.

Lend me a hand.

No way.

What's the matter?

Do what the boss said, shithead!

Hit him!

- Hit him!
- He told you to hit him!

- Come on!
- No!

Stay still.

Sang!

I didn't know the cocaine
in those coconuts was yours!

Give me another chance!

Tung, I know I messed up!

Please ask Sang to give me another chance!

Please don't!

Don't do this!

Did you need to be so brutal?

Are you satisfied?

I didn't say it wasn't okay.

Take him to a doctor.

Remember to deliver to us tomorrow.

Gentlemen,

I really want to make the delivery,
but I have a case hanging over my head

I'm being watched closely.

I'll take care of your case.

Remember to continue our deliveries.

Do you hear me?

Go.

Bye, Sang.

You bastard.

You're so brutal
even with your own underlings.

That's how it is.

If you don't show him something,

you won't scare him
into delivering the goods.

Hello, Bao Ding.

I can't hear you.

It's so noisy there Speak louder.

You piece of shit!

Why are you doing drugs in my club?

Do you care more
about the club than about me?

Without me, you would be long dead!

Get the fuck out!

Now! Get going!

Bastard, don't boss me around!

Am I not your big brother?

My last name is Chan
Your dad is not my dad.

Isn't your mom my mom?

So what if she is?

Get lost!

I'll leave when I'm finished.

Bitch!

- Fuck! Stop!
- Bitch!

Someone is filming us.

I've seen him in court.

Sorry.

What were you filming?

Give me your phone.

Hey! Beating someone up? Gang fight?

I've called the police.

What took you so long? Let's go

I've got what we need Let's leave.

Are you okay?

Let's find King-wai.

He's on his way Let's go.

You called the police?

We'll beat them up too!

Ever been in a fight?

I was a model student!

Hurry up!

Hello? King-wai?
Why aren't you here yet?

Your friend

is beating up a hundred people!

No! He's getting beaten up
by a hundred people!

Calling Central Control
We've secured the scene up here.

Copy - Ambulances are standing by.

Calling Central Control.

Don't attack!

Mr Fok?

Mr Fok, it's me!

It's me!

You're lucky to be alive.

Dinner is on me.

That Lau Siu-keung

turns out to be
Chan Kwok-Wing's half-brother

I recorded everything.

This place belongs to Lau Siu-keung.

The guys in suits who attacked you earlier
are security guards here.

Every one of them
insisted on hiring a lawyer

and specifically asked
for Au Pak-man's law firm.

Justice will prevail Heaven is on our side.

The two brothers are obstructing justice.

Ma Ka-kit's case can move forward now.

Mr Yeung.

Hey, Mr Bao.

Can we talk?

I'm rushing to the High Court.

- What's the matter?
- It's urgent Let's talk now.

How did you find Lee Sze-man?

Through the boss of the restaurant
where Ka-kit works

I think his last name is Lau.

Mr Ma said

that Lau Siu-keung
introduced Au Pak-man to him.

And Lau Siu-keung and Chan Kwok-wing
turned out to be half-brothers.

They've been in collusion,
obstructing justice.

Mr Bao, you're so enthusiastic,

joining their investigation team.

Mr Ma is now going
to file an official report

and give a statement.

You should take a look
There's solid evidence.

The Legal Aid Department

is now citing
"judge's misguidance of the jury"

and retrying the case.

The trial will be in 28 days

I really don't understand.

Why do they keep trying
such a minor case?

I don't want people to think
that the DOJ is unprofessional.

After the police
finish taking the statements,

they will pass them on to the DOJ.

The DOJ will then consider
whether to accept them or not.

Of course, I know that,

but I don't want our own people
to suspect each other.

What do you want to say? Spit it out.

The DOJ has prosecuted
Au Pak-man three times,

and he got off scot-free every time.

The same prosecutor
handled all three cases.

YEUNG DIT-LAP

You were the lead prosecutor in all three.

How long have you known me?

Thirty-six years.

Do you know that I handle
over 1,000 cases every year?

Three cases?

What are you trying
to prove with three cases?

- Mr Yeung...
- Are you using them to come after me?

Just this afternoon, I have 38 cases
waiting for me to handle.

If you have evidence
to support your accusation,

then please report me immediately.

Otherwise, don't waste my time
with this nonsense!

I want a lawyer.

No matter how many retrials there are,
the result will be the same.

We won't lose

I don't care about winning or losing

I care about giving the public confidence

in knowing that we have the ability
to uphold the rule of law.

Legal Aid has arranged for you
to give a statement to the police.

As long as you reveal

that Lau Siu-keung
introduced the lawyer to you,

they will be obstructing justice,

and there will be hope for Ka-kit.

This time, it seems
Ka-kit really has a chance.

Thank you.

Don't mention it It's my duty.

But you will have to testify in court.

Hang in there.

Of course I will!

I hope that after Ka-kit comes out,
he can be sensible and go back to school.

Perhaps he can become
a great lawyer like you.

You're too kind!

I see that your grandson
has great artistic talent

I know - He draws very well.

Art nowadays sells for very high prices.

Actually,

it doesn't matter what field he studies.

The most important thing
is to find a nice girlfriend.

If I can see him get married
and have kids,

then I'll be satisfied

I look forward to the wedding!

I'll reserve a seat for you!

I'm going to the restroom.

You can sit at the host's table.

It doesn't matter, so long as I get to eat!

Mr Fok, I beg you.

You're from the Department of Justice.

Can you talk to the judge
to let me out for just one day?

Just one day.

After that, I can spend
my whole life in prison.

I want revenge.

I don't understand.

I really don't get it

I don't understand
why none of you are willing to help me.

I really didn't do anything!

I lent out my address
just to make a few bucks

to help my grandpa
with household expenses!

I simply wished
that we could have better meals,

eat together at a nicer table,
and have a house without leaks.

It's as simple as that!

Did I really do something wrong?

- Ma Ka-kit's relative was found dead.
- Citizens are worried.

- Everyone is following this case.
- Was he silenced?

- Did the DOJ accuse the wrong person?
- Everyone is watching this case.

What mindset will you approach this with?

This case
has entered the judicial process

I'm not in a position
to make any comments Sorry.

If the appeal is successful,
will it damage the DOJ's reputation?

The DOJ's reputation is irrelevant.

The work of the DOJ is based on evidence.

We present the evidence to the court.

The court makes the final decision.

Here.

Okay.

Check again - I will.

We've checked many times.

No leads.

No witnesses, no fingerprints,
and no murder weapon.

Have you checked the surveillance cameras

in the shops across the street?

Have you searched for the cars
and pedestrians that passed by?

If you can't find anything,
it means you're just not good enough.

My colleagues and I haven't
stopped working for 48 hours!

It's not that we don't want
to find anything.

No evidence and no witnesses

I can't think of another way.

If there's no way, find a way

I have confidence in you,

but you need
to have confidence in yourself.

Do you remember what we used to say?

- Stay strong and keep true.
- Stay strong and keep true?

Everyone here
is staying strong and keeping true!

But we can't eliminate crimes!

As police, we can be very helpless.

Sometimes our hands are tied.

Now I understand

why you gave up back then.

Mr Fok.

Officer Leung, long time no see.

Is this your son?

Yes.

He's Luke - Hello.

Hello, mister.

Hello, Luke.

Take this seat - Thank you.

Are you still in the Emergency Unit?

Yes

I just had my board interview
I could be promoted to inspector.

That's great! Keep it up.

- Stay strong and keep true!
- Stay strong and keep true!

Mr Fok,

during that operation seven years ago,

I was three months pregnant with him.

If you hadn't saved me,

he wouldn't be sitting here.

Thank you.

I never gave up.

I just got old

I can't charge ahead my whole life,

being in the front line.

It's up to you guys now.

That's why.

I transferred to the DOJ.

I want to guard the final gate.

As long as you have faith,

you can do it.

Stay true to your goals.

It would be great
if everyone had your passion.

You have it.

Copy that.

All right Let's keep at it!

Don't stop, everyone!

Copy!

I've got a date I'm taking off

Bao Ding.

We're off the clock You're not leaving?

Just leave if you have no loyalty.

Hey.

There are still over a dozen carts
We can't finish them before the trial.

You should have stayed a cop.

If I hadn't met you,
I wouldn't have to work so hard.

You came to the DOJ for no reason.

I don't even know why you're here!

Do you want to know why?

Tell me Stop being mysterious.

Because I think our work

is like an eternal brilliant light.

It shines the glory of fairness and justice

into every dark corner

of the hearts of the people.

I'm getting old
I can't catch thieves anymore.

My knees hurt.

I'm still young I don't have that problem.

You were right.

There was a third person
at the scene of that case we bet on.

It was a conspiracy to commit murder.

I'm willing to admit defeat.

I'm the best at reviewing documents
I'll help you out.

Enough said Let's do this together

I'll take care of this box.

That bright light

I've extinguished it.

Mr Fok - Okay.

The criminal organization has a pattern.

That means
Ma Ka-kit isn't the only victim.

There are many like him out there.

Before the trial,

we need to find another victim
who is willing to testify in court.

But drugs get into Hong Kong by mail

at least 300 times a year,
totaling over 1,000 cases.

- We only have a few days.
- I know it's hard.

But I know you'll figure it out.

You've been in this teen's shoes
Your testimony can help him

I've already served my time
What do you want from me? Just leave.

My son just got out
of the juvenile detention center.

Leave him alone!

I can go to the police station
and give a statement

I would rather not go to court though

I don't want other people
to know I've been to prison

I understand,
but there's a young man just like you.

He also received a package
and was accused of drug trafficking.

Stop bothering me already.

Did this person introduce a lawyer to you?

This person has harmed many people

using the same method.

Please help.

A young man likewise received a package

and is being accused of drug trafficking.

If you testify in court,

you can save him.

Hey!

Bingo!

Someone agreed to testify!

We did it!

Nice work.

This is great!

Well done!

Great work, Mr Fok!

Hello, Mr Fok.

You took a leave today
I just wanted to check on you.

What's going on? Is everything okay?

Thank you.

How are things now?

How did that case

go so wrong?

Someone has been killed.

How long do you want to drag this on?

Mr Ma has been killed.

Do you not see it?

Mr Ma's death is a police case,

a criminal case.

We are the Department of Justice.

Have you considered
going back to being a police officer?

Then you can investigate cases
and catch criminals.

Or you can become a defense lawyer.

You enjoy being a defense lawyer so much.

You're wasting your talents at the DOJ.

Do you know what the DOJ is for?

Let me tell you what the DOJ is for.

The DOJ is the final gate
of the rule of law.

Now, Mr Ma

has been murdered.

Ma Ka-kit will be in prison for 27 years.

Even if he's guilty,
does he deserve 27 years?

You tell me!

Honestly,

27 years is a bit excessive.

We are the DOJ.

Do you know how many pending cases
we have in our department?

If every colleague
handled their work the way you do,

the DOJ would be paralyzed,
do you understand?

Given your current state of mind,

you are not suitable
to continue as this case's lead prosecutor

or to remain in the Department of Justice

I've written to the Civil Service Bureau
to request your transfer.

You will receive notice
in one month, okay?

Are you serious?

Yes - Get out.

Thank you!

You are useless.

Stop putting on airs!

All your education has gone to waste!

- What?
- You pretend to be a gentleman.

But you're the type

who wouldn't
help an old lady cross the street.

You have no friends, you're selfish,
and you only think of yourself

I bet you don't have a pet!

Go home and jerk off!

Oh, don't leave just yet.

I have evidence of you collaborating
with Au Pak-man.

How much longer do you plan to slander me?

What are you up to now?

Taking off your jacket? You want to fight?

I've had it with you!

- Can you do it?
- Always harping about Au!

You get a six-figure salary every month!

- You!
- Listen, I'll give you one chance.

- Yeung Dit-lap, show me how tough you are!
- If you beat me, I'll let you off!

- Let's fight!
- Sure thing!

- Fight me? Cut the crap.
- There are many like Au.

Come - Can you arrest them all?

Damn it!

Come on.

Let's go!

Beat me and I'll back you up!

Get ready to back me up, then.

You wish.

Tricking me with blank paper?

How else could I light the fire in you?

I did what I had to do.

Tung, here are the US dollars
you asked for.

Count it yourself

Nakamura, put this over there.

Yes, sir.

Gentlemen, every dollar
has been laundered.

Call me whenever you need anything done.

What a guy!

Pak-man's delivery is complete.

Everybody is happy!

But I still have something
to ask Lau Siu-keung.

Yes, Tung?

The police are searching everywhere
for intel on you.

You will get Pak-man in hot water.

You'll bring trouble to us.

It's my fault I'll take care of it.

Why are we talking about these things?

We're all so happy now.

Let's just drink

I've sorted it out with Siu-keung already.

He will turn himself in and plead guilty.

Then the whole matter
will be resolved cleanly.

In any case, it won't bother you.

Come on Let's drink!

Thank you, Sang.

Gentlemen,

Siu-keung is very capable.

If there's any offense, please forgive him.

Show me some respect Don't blame him.

Today

is Sang's birthday.

I have a small birthday present for you.

See if you like it.

Pak-man,

you're a smart guy!

Sang, I wish you shining success.

Like fireworks, the more you shoot,
the more you dazzle!

Time's up!

Have you gone crazy?

Today is my birthday.

We agreed that I would shoot!

Sure, you're the birthday boy,
but we agreed to shoot at 12:30 a m.

You offed the old guy last time
It's my turn this time.

If you wanted to shoot,
you should have done it at the stern.

Now look at this mess here now!

It takes time
to order new furniture from Italy

I couldn't wait!

What if he drank all my booze?

Let's drink!

Happy birthday.

The floater has been confirmed
as Lau Siu-keung.

Even with the laundromat girl's testimony,

we don't have enough evidence
to charge him.

Chan Kwok-wing must be their next target.

We don't know if he is in hiding
or has already been killed.

We just can't find him.

The trial is coming up
We need to find him as soon as possible.

As long as you tell the truth,

we will definitely help you
reduce your sentence.

And if your testimony

can help incriminate
the whole gang of drug traffickers,

I will also consider
helping you apply for amnesty.

If you become our witness,
you will definitely benefit.

How much your sentence is reduced
depends on how much you say.

I have evidence from Lau Siu-keung

that can nail that bastard Au Pak-man

I even know where his drug den is

I want a reduced sentence!

Do you have any other options?

Mr Yeung,

Fok Chi-ho hasn't arrived yet.

Just do what I say later.

My leg.

I can't walk.

Help me!

Sit down.

Help me!

Can you walk?

Take him with you and go!
The trial is starting Get going!

Go!

Save me, officer!

- Help!
- Take care.

Call the police!

Don't let me die!

Call the police! Be quick!

I'm Inspector Lee King-wai

I'm at Ki Lung Street in Sham Shui Po.

Hey!

Where are you going?

Don't leave me!

Hey!

What are you doing?

Defendant Ma Ka-kit's appeal
in the drug trafficking conspiracy case

was successful.

The case will be retried today.

Ms Cheung Yeuk-sum,

a few years ago,
you received a package at your home.

Inside, there was 500 g of cocaine,

and at that time, you admitted
to the crime of drug trafficking.

Is that true?

Actually, it was Chan Kwok-wing.

He gave me 1,000 dollars
to use my home address

I didn't know there were drugs
in that package.

My boss at the time, Lau Siu-keung,

introduced me to Au Pak-man.

They were the ones
who told me to plead guilty!

Do you have any evidence?

I went to prison! That's the evidence!

The key figures in our case,
Chan Kwok-wing and Lau Siu-keung,

are not present in the courtroom.

So I would like
to summon the next witness,

Mr Au Pak-man, to testify

and help reconstruct
the sequence of events.

This case would've been easy
for me to handle within the law,

but you bastards
insisted on killing the guy,

and then you left his younger brother
as a loose end.

If Chan Kwok-wing has any evidence
on me, I'm screwed!

If you run away,
this case will never be closed.

The police will uncover more and more
Sooner or later, we'll all end up dead.

Settle it in court tomorrow,
and we'll all be happy.

Are you out of your mind?

You're forcing me to appear in court.

Are you playing with me?

Let me tell you, if I go down,
I'll take you down with me!

Think a little.

How much money have you made thanks to me?

Without me, you're nothing but shit!

It's only a matter of time
before I'll really eat shit.

You need to stay calm now.

Let's fix this together

I've made some arrangements.

Do you know

which place on this planet
sees the sunrise first?

It's Fiji.

I've already bought a small island there

I'm ready to go and enjoy life.

In Hong Kong,

there are skyscrapers everywhere.

It's hard to see the sunrise anymore.

Chan Kwok-wing's testimony also indicated

that he and his brother, Lau Siu-keung,
were both working for you.

He was primarily responsible
for borrowing addresses

and receiving packages,

while his brother introduced lawyers
to the victims,

including Ms Cheung Yeuk-sum
and Mr Ma Ka-kit.

Do you have any explanation
for this accusation?

Listen to me.

Go to court tomorrow
and resolve the matter

I'll take you with me.

Once we're there,

you'll be able
to see the sunrise every day.

I'll take care of things

outside of the courtroom.

First of all,

I don't know what statements
he gave to the police,

but one thing I do know is that
if he doesn't show up to testify in court,

then what you stated is not evidence.

Mr Yeung,

don't think I don't know what you're up to.

You're using my courtroom

to try to expose the crimes of others.

What exactly do you want
to achieve by doing this?

To answer your question, Your Honor,

I want to request

that Chan Kwok-wing appear in court
as a special witness for the prosecution.

He hasn't made the request.

If there's no request, I won't approve it.

This is unfair to the defense.

Your Honor, I have no objections at all.

Are you two playing tricks on me?

Your Honor,

I humbly request your approval
for Chan Kwok-wing to testify in court.

If you're not satisfied
after hearing his testimony,

I'm willing to bear all the consequences
and responsibilities.

When will your witness appear, then?

Please stand back from the train doors.

Please stand back from the train doors.

Please stand back from the train doors.

Mr Fok.

Mr Fok,

Sang and I spent over ten years in hiding

in Cambodia because of you.

You've arrested so many people.

Don't you recognize me?

Mr Ma, that stubborn old man

I stabbed him over a dozen times,

and his guts spilled all over the floor

I enjoyed it! It's your turn now!

This is how the law works, Mr Fok.

Hey!

I object.

Would you like to appeal?

The courtroom is a place
to uncover the truth.

Time means nothing
in the face of the truth.

So no matter how much time it takes,

we must wait for the truth to come out.

Isn't that right?

Mr Yeung,

could you please stop reciting poetry?

When can he come?

Sorry, Your Honor.

There was some heavy traffic.

My brother left evidence for me,

including account books,

records of drug transactions,

and all of Au Pak-man's bank accounts.

He said to use them as insurance
if something happened.

Ma Ka-kit had no idea
the package contained drugs.

Au Pak-man even told me to plead guilty.

He said he would kill me if I didn't.

Do you think I'm afraid of you?

Even if I have to go to prison,
I'll rat you out!

Au Pak-man, you bastard!

Prosecutor, do you have any final words?

Ladies and gentlemen

in Hong Kong,

the court values evidence above all,

but evidence does not
always equal the truth,

nor does it necessarily
guarantee us justice.

Furthermore,

no judicial system is perfect,

and loopholes can arise.

These loopholes

are often exploited

by individuals with malicious intent.

When we let innocent people
fall victim to these loopholes,

as in the case of Ma Ka-kit this time,

just one wrongful judgment

can destroy an entire family.

That is why we do not
allow wrongful judgments

to happen under our watch,

to happen to Ma Ka-kit,

or to happen

to anyone.

This is our conscience
as legal personnel, Your Honor.

This court hereby pronounces the verdict.

The first defendant, Ma Ka-kit,

is found not guilty
of drug trafficking charges

and is to be released.

The DOJ celebrates the fact

that Ma Ka-kit's case
has been successfully appealed.

The DOJ will continue
to optimize its own performance,

enhancing the efficiency,
quality, and consistency

of prosecutorial decisions.

It will also strengthen cooperation
with other government departments

to provide high-quality legal services
to Hong Kong society,

ensuring fairness and justice
in the judicial process.

Does overturning your own verdict mean
the judicial system isn't fair enough?

Does it imply that there were mistakes?

That's right.

I admit it.

The initial judgment in this case

was indeed flawed.

This has raised doubts and concerns
among the public.

Regarding this matter,

I sincerely feel regret,

and I apologize.

Most importantly, justice is done.

That's the most important.
