What're you going to do?

Where are you from?

Bangkok Police Office.

Bangkok Police Office?

Wait right here for the investigation

Why didn't you call the police last night?

I didn't think it had anything to do with me

And I don't want to be connected.

Why do you think you were attacked?

Because of the golden Buddha for sure.

Do you knowthe secret about it?

Me? I don't.

The Golden Buddha has been stolen by some thieves

Detective, you must trust me.

Whatever I've told hasn't been lies

It's not about trust.

Say, ifthe truth doesn't come to light,

You couldn't leave Bangkok.

We need your cooperation.

I can't leave Bangkok?

Yes, we may need to speak to you anytime

If I don't comply?

We'd have to detain you

Okay, then I'd rather stay in a hotel...

than being here.

I accept your condition. I won't leave

Good.

Can I go now?

You may, but leave your passport here

Good, I'll temporarily take care of it for you

Even I'd be at ease, if it's in your custody

I don't think I should tell.

Beg your pardon for being quite rude

Ijust wan tto treat you for a coffee...

As a way to express my apology

Mr, there are many good doctors in Bangkok.

You'd better find one.

Could you bring me something to eat?

The dining room is at the back

Go overthere. They'll certainly have something

Ham and egg with abeer.

What do you want, Miss?

Coffee and a sandwich, please

Sorry.

May I ask whose picture is it?

You know him?

We're friends in Hong Kong.

He is mybrother. I'm Chan Mei-nan .

You're Mei-nan?

That's great. I've been looking for you.

Looking for me?

About Chung Cheung...

For this matter,

I took a day off from the school...

and went to Bangkok police station

I'm Paul Cheung.

You're Mr. Cheung.

I've been to your hotel.

About the golden Buddha, you...

It was stolen by at hief.

But they just know nothing.

I don't understand what you mean.

The golden Buddhat hey've got;

The secret of it is no longer inside.

It's with me

You know that secret?

I know...

So, where did you hide it?

I put it in a... betterplace.

Could you tell me?

Sure, but not now.

What's the reason?

Besides, that belongs to my brother.

I know it.

If I disclose the secret, it's not good for me.

And you would be in danger too.

Besides, according to Chung Cheung's will

I must be certain of your identity

You have to make sure who I am, right?

Forgive me.

Should I give you my birth certificate?

You don't trustme...

Actually, I'm not quite interested in it.

See you, Mr. Cheung.

Thank you.

Is Mr. Chan Chung-tai here?

What's your name?

I'm Paul Cheung.

Come in.

Please wait!

Ok.

Go...

Thanks for your kind help.

Have a seat

I have a letter here from the Skeleton Gang

I have turned it over to the police

Never thought I'd be forced...

to hand them the Golden Buddha

I'm lucky to have yourhelp.

I am here...

for the Golden Buddha of Chung-cheung.

You brought it withyou?

It has been stolen,

but I've kept it a secret

You're brilliant.

Could you please tell me the secret?

It's Chung-cheung's decision.

The secret must only be disclosed...

with Mei-nan aside.

Right. Go to find her.

But her school...

is too far from here.

We haven't got much time

You should ask for protection...

from the police,

and then give me...

Mei-nar's address.

I'll find her fo ryou

You're being helpful.

Chung Cheung is my best friend

It's what friends should do.

I am going then.

Thanks a lot.

Hey

You know where does Mei-nan live?

Yeah

Could you lead me there?

Sure.

Thank you.

Who is there?

It's me. Paul Cheung.

Please wait for me in the hall

I am coming.

Sure.

I didn't think that you will be here for me.

I climbed the wall to get here

It doesn'tmatter.

But guests without invitation...

aren't welcome, you know

Cross with me, are you?

I've come here...

to sincerely apologize

Oh, yeah? Just for an apology?

And of course there's anotherreasontoo

Ms Mei-nan...

You trust that I'm Mei-nan?

I met your brother and he gave me youraddress.

Asked me to come look for you

My Brother?

We've never been on good terms

He never cares about me.

Mr. Cheung

Just tell me why you're here

It's dangerous for a single girl.

Do you know that?

So?

Before those gangsters get to you, better...

take your Golden Buddha and come along with me

We'll go to meet your brother.

You ask for my golden Buddha.

Why should I trust you then?

Ms Chan, everything I do is...

just as per Chung-cheung's wish.

You're the best in the world.

I don't care about your comment.

But I need to give you advice.

Bring your golden Buddha and come with me.

Golden Buddha... You always ask for this.

Why don't you...

tell me the secret first?

No. For the secret behind the other two,

I can't tell you mine.

Mr. Cheung

What's your purpose to keep this secret?

You want to...

share the treasure?

You think that I'm such kind ofperson?

If you want to share it,

we can be partners

Partner?

You tell me yoursecret,

and I tell you mine.

Maybe we could find the treasure.

We don't even need to share with my brother.

I wonder why you're being so nice to me.

Because I like you.

I think... you should go to meet your brother.

Just because I like you so much.

I'll listento youthen.

Letme go get changedfirst

Do youwantto read some books?

Thanks!

Please help do itforme.

You're bad!

Didrtyou saythatwe're partners?

Did you need me to meet with my brother?

I changed my mind.

Because I like you too. We're partners

Do you really like me?

But... make a deal.

Just if we're partners, I'll promise to do everything.

Really?

We're partners...

What're you doing?

Aren't we Partners?

You're really bad!

Bad!

Am I?

I don't care.

Didn't you say you like me a lot?

Make me happy if you want that secret.

Good

It's time to have some wine.

Wait...

Wouldn't be allowed to have wine first

You haven't yet told me your secret

No secrets...

between us anymore.

You're a liar. You don't want to tell me.

It's not a suitable time to discuss this.

You're beautiful

and this is a nice place too,

we should enjoy the hours.

Paul. I'll be angry

if you don't tell me the secret.

Don't be.

I tell you, my Golden Buddha...

It's engraved a vertical 22, a horizontal 22, reverse 22...

So, could we drink right now?

Wait, let me help you

Cheers! Forus.

Cheers! To your health.

Cheers.

Fall, fall.

Ridiculous.

It's you! Why're you here?

I'm Mei-nan Chan, it's my home.

Mei-nan Chan?

Who are you?

I'm Paul Cheung, your brother's friend.

Whathappened?

A few strangers came

and asked for the Golden Buddha.

I didn't tell them. They trapped me here.

The Skeleton Gang are sure determined

They just trapped you here first,

and a girl pretended to be you.

Me? Whatever for?

Because of the Golden Buddha.

It's dangerous here,

let's go meet your brother

Ms Chan, you can't be sure what they'll do next

Bring your Golden Buddha and come with me.

Golden Buddha is no longer with me.

It has been stolen?

No, my motherloved the Golden Buddha much.

When she died,

I put it into hercoffin.

Anyone knows about this?

No, I will not tell even if they hit me.

Mei-nars Golden Buddha is in her mother's coffin.

Action!

Be quick.

Shit, now they know

We'll immediately head for the cemetery

Did you find it?

No, nothing here.

Tell me, where is the Golden Buddha?

I don'tknow. It's true.

C'mon, out with it!

Bury him!

I'll say, I'll tell

It's just next to the bridge.

That way...

Uncle Wu.

Don'tworry, I'll go check it out

Come on.

Uncle Wu,

what's the matter?

Two guys forced me to hand them

the Golden Buddha.

Have they gotit?

No, it was not in the coffin.

Wasn't there actually

No?

I saw the gold Buddha...

at the funeral service

So I removed it from the coffin

I need money these days, so I sold it.

You're such... where did you sell it?

I sold it to Mr. Soong in the antiques market.

Did you tell those guys?

Yes

They were going to bury me,

so i told them.

What should we do?

Go to the antique market.

Salute!

Number Four!

Here

About your failure, how would explain that?

I... beg you master, forgive me.

My men never beg for mercy

Number One

Here.

What should we do?

With the 5th rule,

what should we do?

No failure is allowed.

Stay and have it done yourself.

Master, please carry out the punishment.

Take her away

About the Golden Buddha, it failed this time.

You all must do your best next time.

Catch Paul and Mei-nan and fetch them here

Remember two things:

Firstly, Iwant them alive

you must not hurt them.

Secondly, the police shouldn't get a whiff of it

And you must protect them in any case.

Yes

Infact, Paul and Mei-nan

are in a really dangerous situation.

Just for their safety,

we need to protect them from any attacks.

In case we couldn't stop...

the action of the attackers?

Then arrest them

Because it's too risky

They're such a large group.

It's our responsibility to keep the citizens in peace,

even if the crime is colossal.

I told you

The thugs are clever

Recently, we've got some clues in hand.

I guess the case will be closed shortly.

We need you all.

Yes.

Uncle Wu? Is he the guard of the graveyard?

Yes. He is.

He did sell me the Golden Buddha.

Where is it then?

I sold it.

Sold it?

Do you remember who bought it?

Ms Mada, the lady who works at the night club.

Let's go.

Where to?

To the night club.

Thank you.

It's really a nice place.

I seldom go out, it's the firsttime.

How should we get it back?

We'll meet Ms. Mada after the show.

Buy it back at a higher price, I reckon

What should we do?

Stop, hands up

Yes

Run!

Mr. Paul Cheung

What's up?

Our detective wants to see you.

We couldn't follow you.

If you don't, we will arrest you

Okay

Any other way...

to go to your brother?

Maybe boat, ship then.

And by vehicle

When can we get the boat?

At dawn

Come on.

Lots of people died because of the Golden Buddha.

We should fight for it...

right now.

Sorry,

you shouldn't be connected to this.

I need to help,

Chung Cheung is my friend.

What're you doing?

Dump it,

and bad things would not happen again.

It's useless.

At least, you can be saved.

It's not that simple.

They will keep chasing us

because of the secret.

And what if I dump it?

Would they trust you?

What is the secret behind the Golden Buddha?

You may not tell it to me...

until your brother is aside.

I suggest you'd better got down the secret first.

And damage those on the Buddha.

Do you have a pen?

Give me

Thatway.

Come on.

This way

My shoe...

Which one?

The one with the message

I'll go down to get it

Paul

Go there.

Go

Go there

What is this place?

Chan Mei-nan, where is she?

Where're my clothes?

Paul Cheung

Who is there?

Mr. Paul Cheung,

Ms. Chan is safe. You just take a rest here

and we won't hurt you.

Our master wants to meet you later.

Paul!

Are you okay?

Found myself trapped in a large strange room

when I awoke

Lots of people served me

and I was sent here afterwards

Paul, I am scared!

What could this place be?

We've beentrapped.

Are we in danger?

Maybe. But they serve us like guests.

We're dressed beautifully.

This house is weird.

The Skeleton gang is big.

Evidently we could be in the seabed

The two of you, please speak

Who are you? We've to talk?

I'm the leader of Skeleton Gang

I can kill anyone.

Come on, nobody has this right.

I sure can

I need to know the secret of Golden Buddha.

You've damaged the secret.

If you tell me the truth,

I will not hurtyou.

And I promise to give you 50 thousand US dollars.

50 thousand US dollars?

For each person!

I so wish to getmyhands on your US dollars...

But I really don't know the Secret of the Golden Buddha.

And you, Ms. Chan?

Mr. Cheung, we're being really kind this time.

You know, we wouldn't hesitate to do anything

I knewi t earlier

I don't think you would be that silly, right?

Sorry, you're right.

You're silly.

You'd better learn a lesson.

No.7, No.9

Here

No.2, No.4

Paul!

Paul, do you think they would kill us?

They can't; they won't kill us...

before they've got the secret from us.

What can we do right now?

Now...

Take a rest first.

Brother...

Get in

Brother, are you ok?

They caught me.

Didn't you seek help from the police?

They sent two officers to live in my house.

But they killed both of them

And they caught me...

just because of the Golden Buddha.

If I didn't give them, they would have killed me.

So, you gave it to them?

Could I not?

Isn't life dear to me?

What about yours?

Those two were stolen?

Indeed they were stolen.

But they don't know the secret

That's why we should stay alive until safe.

But I just worry that they have a lot of bad ideas,

could we stay alive?

I think...

the only way is to escape

Thanks.

Please come in, I want to talk to you

Me?

Quick

We need to find a way out.

Brother Tai, you go this way.

We two will go that way.

Right.

We are back here again! No exit in sight

Isn't there a way out from up here?

No way out? Is it a staircase?

Go upstairs.

What couldt his place be?

Run. Come on.

That way!

Have some res first

You're tired. You couldn't run anymore.

We came out from it eventually.

Let's disclose all our secrets,

and find out the treasure.

Mine is...

south, south-east, 30miles5

My piece tells...

move the lefthand, push the right eye.

Paul. How's yours?

I can't read it.

Buddha. Left, left 3 andturn 3, rightandturn4

Nanpang, south-east, 30 miles

Buddha. Left 3,turn 3, right 4,turn4

Move lefthand and push right eye.

Right, go there.

Brother!

Mei-nan. Don't be upset.

They're dead.

These days were really tough for you.

Don't be sad, mind your health.

They don't deserve to die.

It's our treasure

They shouldn't steal it

We're living in a mad world

People have lost their senses

Paul, we are the only two who know the secret.

We must be in danger.

They won't kill us

before they've found out the treasure.

I would rather give them...

all the treasure.

What is your wish?

My wish?

I wish to build some school for the poor.

They don'thave chance to study.

Right

So, this is what you should do.

You can't let those bad guys to have that money.

Do you think so?

Let us go to dig out the treasure.

We won't get the wrong place, right?

There is the only Buddha in the South-east.

For years it's been famous

And it's 30 miles exactly.

Left 3,turn left 3...

Paul, would it be these?

Left 3...

One, two, three...

Paul, it moved!

Try the four column

How many times did you turn?

Just once

Turn it twice more

It moves!

- Turn the lefthand - Turn the lefthand

It must be that Buddha!

Mei-nan, you should be happy now

There's a lot of jewels.

It's enough for you to build the school.

I'm deeply grateful...

for what you did forme.

No need for that;

the treasure isn't yours!

Paul Cheung, you stay out of it

And you two just knew too much.

I must kill you two.

Your group is just like the devil's gang

You thief, that treasure belongs to my family.

What?

It's time to kill you two.

Look and you'll know who I am.

It's you!

Of course.

That's why you could escape the trap so easy

Sister, I am really sorry.

You two will be buried in here.

Down there!

These all belong to my family.

You can get it all

if you don't hurt us.

Let's take it, take it all...

Stop! Listen to me.

Listen to me!

Stop it

Don't get excited

Stop it

Paul, forget all this; let's hurry

Catch him!

Don't move...

Stand still

Cuff him!

Are you two all right?

Detective, you came at the right time!

If you weren't smart enough...

to leave my man behind,

I might have come earlier.

Detective, everyone is caught.

No one escaped

Ask them to pick the jewels up.

Take them all to the police station

Yes, take them back

Go... quick

Would you come to Bangkok again?

It depends on my boss' decision.

However I'd certainly look forward to a chance

I hope you do come again.

It's time to go.

I'll write to you from Singapore

- See ya. - See you

Paul

I've a small gift for you

Open it after you board the flight

Bye.

I will wait for you.
