Where's Taro?

He's... he's not in!

Please, forgive him.

The boy has decided to leave your gang.

Please...

Let him live a normal life.

Don't fuck with me!

- Please, don't! - Out of my way!

Please... forgive me.

You know too much about our gang.

I... won't tell anyone.

Today, I will kill you!

I won't tell anyone!

- Run... get away! - Please... please stop!

He... help me...

Stop!

You bitch!

I don't understand what you're saying.

Let me borrow your weapon!

Teach me what you know.

Leave it to me!

Come on!

They'll chop you up!

What's going on? A fight?

Royal Hong Kong Police.

Hey, they're here!

I'm a reporter from Hong Kong.

Will you be sentenced to death when you go back?

Who dares sentence me to death?

- Sir, this way. - Thanks.

First row on the right, first seat.

Thanks.

Sir?

Miss, can I help you with something?

Can you speak Japanese?

This Japanese friend is sitting in my seat.

I don't speak Japanese, but I have a way to make him stand.

Please...

Miss, that seat is yours.

You said it was on my right side.

Sorry, I said it was on my right side.

Do you know how to say "sorry" in Japanese?

To say it politely, it's "sumimasen".

To say it impolitely, it's "gomen".

Sumimasen.

Gomen!

- Thanks a lot. - Don't mention it.

I'm most fond of helping young ladies.

These three seats.

- Thanks. - You're welcome.

What's the matter?

Oh, two policemen extraditing a prisoner.

Nothing unusual.

How do you know?

I can see you're not a villain.

Do you know what I do?

I'm an air marshal.

Never heard of that?

I'm the guy who keeps this plane safe.

Really? Wow!

You must've seen a lot of fighting and killing?

Oh, far too much!

I don't like it when people fight.

Hey, then you can rest assured,

that with me here, this plane is absolutely safe.

See you later!

Sir?

I'm sorry!

Tissue?

- Come on. - Thanks.

What time is it?

What time is it?

Uncuff him.

He's got the seaplane ready.

Position?

145417.

You change course, I'll keep watch.

Don't be reckless!

- Go on. - OK.

No need to be afraid.

As long as you cooperate, everyone will be fine.

Otherwise, I'll execute anyone who resists!

Don't move! Sit down!

Come here...

- Open the door! - What's going on out there?

Don't move!

Follow my instructions.

Little Bo, don't cry. No need to be afraid.

I'll give you ten seconds to tell your daughter to shut up!

Otherwise, I'll shoot her dead!

Sir!

Is it alright if I go to the toilet?

Go on!

Where is the toilet?

Can I help her go?

Go on, then!

Michael, hurry, intercept the guy upstairs!

OK!

No, don't shoot!

Don't shoot!

Put down the gun.

Be smart, don't shoot!

Boss Tiger...

You killed him!

Hello! Is anyone receiving?

Help me!

This rage... It was started by you!

Mr. Yamamoto, you managed to keep your composure in this situation.

I wonder if you're a police officer?

But I've already resigned.

Madam, what's your opinion on this incident?

Oh, actually, this time, it wasn't just my might alone.

That's right... in fact, it depended on the might of all three of us.

Our cooperation solved the case.

To celebrate our successful cooperation, tonight dinner's on me.

Mr. Yamamoto, let's take a photo with the three of you together.

Madam, I heard that the purpose of the hijacking was to spring someone.

Do you think there are other accomplices?

Uh, we won't know if there are other accomplices until we investigate.

Hey, remember: be there at eight tonight at the Jumbo Floating Restaurant.

The hijacker was identified as a 31-year-old male, Wong Hung.

His objective: to free a passenger being extradited to Hong Kong for trial.

The accused, Lee Chung-Ching, had been charged with murder.

Both men have been confirmed dead.

The plane was able to make a safe landing thanks to three brave heroes on board.

As for the hijacker's background, this has yet to be investigated further by police--

- Hey, Big Sis! You're back? - You don't say!

If she wasn't, who'd you be talking to?

That's enough back chat, you two!

Hey, she's back...

- She's back? - She's back, hurry up!

Big Sis, "douzo" (as you please...)

Luk Siu-Fung, you...

- Nothing to do with me! - It was his idea!

- Big Sis, someone brought you flowers. - Thanks.

Whoa, is it from a Japanese fan?

Back to work...

if Lau, Sir knows about this, you'll all have reports to write!

Alright... back to work...

LOOK OUT THE WINDOW

Hey, turns out Big Sis' got a boyfriend.

No wonder she's in such a good mood.

He's like my little brother.

Little brother? Then I'll be your little brother, too!

- Were the flowers pretty? - Pretty.

You mustn't feel touched just because the flowers are pretty.

It's only right that pretty flowers are matched to pretty girls.

It's like a handsome man matching a pretty girl.

Hey, what are you doing here?

When we parted at the airport just now, I saw a longing for me in your eyes.

So I decided to come and wait for you.

You're also very direct.

I'm not being direct, I'm being honest.

I'll take you to the Floating Restaurant.

I have to go home to change.

No problem. I'm used to taking girls home to change.

Sorry, I'm not used to men taking me home to change.

What character! But I know you're really fond of me.

You're very annoying!

With perseverance an iron bar can be ground to a fine needle.

For your next birthday I'll give you an iron pillar.

Alright.

I have no intention of inviting you in.

1 - 2 - 3 - open the door!

Come on in, then.

- Hello! - I waited a long time in the seaplane.

- Did something happen? - Yeah.

Boss Tiger and Crazy Chicken are dead.

Do you remember the oath you swore?

How could I forget?

I will deal with them, and avenge Boss Tiger and Crazy Chicken.

Good. I'll be back as soon as possible.

Excuse us, we're late!

Be careful.

Both of you, please take a seat.

Please take a seat.

Your wife?

I forgot to introduce you. This is my wife, Yukiko.

That's my daughter.

"Sumimasen!"

How are you?

They're a perfect match!

Have you and your wife been married many years?

Almost three years.

A loving couple!

Translate for your wife to hear.

Why's your wife in Hong Kong?

You... why...?

In Hong Kong...?

You don't wish to be apart?

Michael, come outside and see the view.

What's there to see?

Dear, did you really quit your job with the police?

Yes, I already bought tickets.

We'll be back in Japan by tomorrow.

My new job...

is from nine in the morning to five in the evening.

I'm a steady salaryman.

It'll be alright.

Whoa! It's very windy out there!

She asks me to go outside, when there's nothing to see!

What the hell were you thinking?!

- Thank you! - Don't mention it!

I hope to have the opportunity to work with you again.

I'm returning to Japan tomorrow at 11 o'clock.

You still have to make a report with me.

I'll pick you up in the morning.

This reminds me of the fun we had in the cabin.

If the three of us joined forces, we'd be invincible!

Please stop being so arrogant!

Hey, I may be a little prejudiced toward you,

but your skill is comparable to mine.

Quite fearless!

If only you were still a cop--

A toast to our happy cooperation.

To us three and our happy cooperation as we risked life and limb.

Cheers...

Silly you! Daddy was just teasing.

I was just pretending. See, I'm alright.

You're a good girl.

Don't cry.

It's ready.

Here you go.

Yuki, dear.

Let's put on this apron.

There we go.

Stop moving.

Don't misbehave.

Eat up.

Be a good girl.

What? You can't crack an egg?

School starts soon. Your friends will laugh at you.

The school you're going to, Daddy attended.

At that time, you were still in Mommy's tummy!

For sure...

we'll be happy again.

Trust me.

Look at you, what have you done?

- Hello! - It's alright now.

- Yamamoto, we're waiting downstairs. - Don't cry anymore.

Be a good girl.

It's just a formality.

I have to get on that plane at 11 o'clock.

I must return to Japan with my wife.

I've made my decision.

Don't worry, no one will keep you if you want to stay a little longer.

Michael, let me give you some advice.

That girl doesn't like guys who talk too much.

I also have some advice for you.

I've decided to woo her.

Really?

Then I wish you luck.

Hey, what are you saying?

Are you talking about me?

We can go.

Wait at the airport restaurant.

I'll be there in half an hour.

Yuki, dear, say 'bye-bye' to Daddy!

- No? - Seriously, no!

Yukiko!

No!

Look out!

Get in the car!

Faster...

What the hell?! My God!

Sit tight!

- Cut him off the other way! - OK!

- Go straight ahead! - Right, sit tight!

Michael, how are you?

Yamamoto...

- Yamamoto, are you alright?! - Where's that guy...?!

- Hello! - Mad Bull, I've arrived in Hong Kong.

I just lost a battle.

But you're still alive.

Remember the oath we swore?

I remember.

We won't leave!

Nothing can separate we four brothers!

That's right! We live together, we die together.

No one can separate us!

Good! Very good, brother!

I'll seek them out.

When you find them, call me and I'll help you.

We've already traced the bayonet that the suspect left at the scene.

The bayonet is the same as the one used by the hijackers.

Presumably, these men belong to the same organization.

And this explosion could be their act of retaliation.

It's likely the killer will act again.

All three of you could be his next target.

I think... it'd be best you stayed at the station for now.

Keep an eye on Yamamoto for me.

He's a notoriously aggressive detective in Japan.

I don't want him causing trouble here.

Mr. Yamamoto!

You'd better stay here, or you'll make it difficult for me.

Will you help me?

You should turn a blind eye.

If Lau knew, do you think you'd get demoted?

Why don't you mind your own business?

Why are you so nice to him and so mean to me?

Where are you going with this?

I wonder if you'd prefer, now he doesn't have a wife--?

You're out of line! Get out of my face now!

Hey... I only intended to say:

now he doesn't have a wife, would you prefer to eat wonton noodles?

What does having no wife have to do with eating wonton noodles?

What does my talking to your Big Sis have to do with you?!

Boss, you think I can't tell my ass from my elbow?

I can't give you the bullets.

All I want... is to borrow the gun.

Michelle, I have a way to find the murderer.

We'll meet in an hour... at the California restaurant.

Hey!

What? Yamamoto's gone?

Call in Michelle!

Hey... He...

He told you to find me, right? So go find me, then...

Old-fashioned is better than nothing. I'm sorry!

I don't have time to play with you.

Oh, you want to go out?

Take the flowers first.

Now, you took my flowers, so everything's alright!

- I'll come with you. - There's no need!

Either we go together, or neither of us goes.

Alright!

I dread what you'll do!

I'll take a look upstairs.

I hate when people are late.

Look, we'll give him 15 minutes.

He hasn't come, we leave, OK?

You go first!

Don't listen to his nonsense!

There's a way to catch the murderer?

If there was, he could have told you on the phone.

It's just an excuse.

Have you eaten yet?

Wouldn't it be better to find a romantic place to have a meal?

- Good? - No good!

What's your drink?

- Whisky. - OK!

A little extra.

Smile...

Like this! Don't move!

Look over here! That's right!

Thanks a lot!

Let me take one of you two - husband and wife.

- Oh, we-- - Are you shy, sweetheart?

Thanks!

You two are a good match.

Here, keep it. 30 years from now it'll make you happy.

In the future, we'll show it to our son.

Husband, don't move!

That pose is very smart.

As long as you tear it up, I know what I ought to do.

Have a drink and give me face.

If I drink whenever you ask, won't I lose face?

You must be joking?!

If you don't drink, won't I lose face, eh?

Sorry, someone's sitting there.

Someone?

A love triangle?!

How did he know?

What are you talking about?

Now, over... Over a bit...

Uh-huh! Got it!

Sorry!

Hey, firecrackers aren't allowed in Hong Kong!

Look out!

Don't move! It's dangerous!

Letting off firecrackers is illegal!

Big Brother, I'm in pain!

Big Gwong...

Big Brother...

Come over!

Go now!

Yamamoto, come out!

If you don't come out, I'll shoot her dead!

Put the gun down!

No!

You'll kill him like this!

- What you said just now was true? - That's right.

- Is there any more? - No.

- Then you can leave. - OK.

- Well, are you in pain? - A little.

Sorry!

Lucky you were there to restrain me.

Your skill isn't bad at all!

If someone offends you, they're asking for trouble!

Let's have tea sometime.

- Are you alright? - Superficial wounds.

Hey! Come here!

Don't you even have the guts to say 'sorry'?

Michael, I'm alright. Don't be like this.

You want revenge?

If you want to be a hero that's your business.

You used us as bait to draw out that killer.

You realize how dangerous that was?

- Forget it! - Shouldn't he take responsibility?

I already knew the whole plan.

I promised I'd help him.

I really don't understand why you make excuses for him.

- It was his fault! - Michael, don't be so childish!

I'm childish.

I'm a meddler.

I shouldn't be here!

I'm very sorry.

Michael's too impulsive.

But he's right.

It's my fault.

Big Sis, are you alright?

Mr. Yamamoto, until this case has been made clear,

I want you to stay at the consulate 24 hours-a-day.

See me back at the station tomorrow morning.

Hurry up!

Hey, wait for me!

Hey, why aren't you moving?

I stepped on a landmine!

Get going!

- Keep your weight on it! - Right!

- Move your foot! - You go first, I've got this!

It's alright now! Move your foot!

You guys go first!

If anything happens, everyone dies together!

We won't leave!

No one can separate we four brothers!

That's right!

We live together, we die together!

Move your foot!

OK! Good brothers...

Let's go!

Don't move! It's dangerous!

This your first day as a cop?

How do I write this report?

Write the truth. I think I'm right.

You're right? Then am I wrong?

Sir, what happened was all because of that cold-blooded killer.

Don't believe me? You can watch the tape taken from the security camera.

I'll do just that.

Also, this photo was found on the body.

This proves that he and the hijacker were accomplices.

That's not the issue now.

So many were injured and killed in that restaurant.

Your shootout left that restaurant in a terrible mess.

The papers will scold us in print.

How do I explain?

- Sir-- - You have no choice!

- Take a vacation. - I just came back!

Say no more. Take a vacation.

Sir, you're suspending me to justify yourself?!

Hand over your weapon.

Go on vacation!

- What about the case? - I'll have someone take over.

You needn't concern yourself.

I'm sure the case isn't as simple as that...

Big Sis, what happened...?

- What happened, Big Sis? - It's fine.

Luk Siu-Fung.

- The case is yours. - Big Sis...?

Now, don't be lazy when I'm not around.

I'm going now.

Michelle, I'm not here to say 'sorry'.

Only that I refuse to accept I can't win you over.

I've had my troubles, now you have yours.

We really are like a married couple.

In a bad mood?

Look here.

We made the headlines twice in two days.

First, someone hijacked a plane, then someone sought revenge.

I've no idea what'll happen next.

It's not that simple.

But then, I'm not in charge.

We're the protagonists.

If we don't handle it, who will?

I told you, I'm not in charge! Handle it yourself if you must!

- Hey, get it done! - Got it!

What's up with her?

To put it politely, she was suspended.

To be blunt, she got the sack!

Oh, no wonder she said she didn't care about anything.

Are you still her friend?

Of course, I am!

- Then you'd be willing to help her? - Through hell or high water!

I know she wants to handle this.

That's not so easy.

But, if she had the resources...

she would be very happy!

Guess what I brought you?

Flowers again? What a waste of money!

Wrong!

Look here, I know you still care about this case.

So, I found some materials for you.

This picture was found on that man's body.

This is the videotape recording from the California restaurant.

What's wrong?

You seem unhappy.

- Where did you get it? - I...

That's government property.

Who cares? Besides, it's no use to them.

It's a matter of principle.

What you did is illegal, so take it back!

- Take it back? - Right.

You know you're not helping me doing this?

You're only making matters worse.

I really don't get it. You're so immature.

From the moment I met you, not once have you been serious.

Do you even know what's going on right now?

Yamamoto's wife is dead.

I've been suspended.

You act like nothing's happened, still with that smug grin!

Usually when you have fun, I'll have fun with you.

But I don't want to have fun now, you got that?

Sorry, I didn't realize you hated me so much.

I thought I was infallible.

But I really did want to help you this time.

Maybe I am immature.

I'm sorry.

I'll take these things back.

Excuse me.

Sir, buying flowers again?

Yeah, two dozen roses.

Send them to this address for me.

OK.

You're flippant!

You're immature!

A child!

I'm scolding you!

Still with that smug grin?!

Look at you... still arguing?!

Overdressed fop!

Pretending to be handsome, like some playboy!

Girls who like you aren't much better!

Usually when you have fun, I'll have fun with you.

But I don't want to have fun now, you got that?

That's right, I've been playing you from the start.

What?

You're not playing? It's for real?

Ditch your flowers and that self-righteous sense of humor and people will trust you.

There's another one?!

Could it be him? It can't be!

It's him, it's really him!

- Hello! - Michelle... I'm not playing!

I'm not being flippant, I'm being really serious!

They're not all dead yet. There's still one left.

What?!

The guy I pushed over in The California is their comrade.

What are you talking about?

I know you won't believe anything I say.

I have something to show you.

Stay home and wait for me.

Remember, you must stay home and wait for me!

What a coincidence!

You still remember me?

Remember? How could I forget you?

What's up? You actually live here?

I'm here looking for a friend.

Are you leaving?

I'll drop you off.

You have a gun. Are you a cop?

Your acting really stinks!

Whoever tries to separate we four brothers will die!

You guys are totally deranged!

Crazy!

You brought this upon your own head.

We four brothers risked life and limb together.

No one can separate us!

My three brothers are dead.

You three will pay with your lives!

Fair enough?

Call the girl, ask her to come rescue you.

You want me to lure her out so you can kill her?

Not on your life!

- Hello! - Miss Yip?

- Who is this? - You want Michael to live or die?

What?!

I don't believe you won't speak.

Michael! Is that you, Michael? Stop joking!

Don't bring the cops, otherwise, you won't see him again.

If you want him to see him,

be at the phone booth across from Granville Road in half an hour.

Forget about me! Ignore what he says!

He wants to kill you!

Michael, are you OK?

Enough chat, Miss Yip.

Don't mess around!

See you in half an hour.

Hello...?

- Hello! - Miss Yip.

- Where's Michael? - Look up to the rooftop opposite.

What is it you want?

You're using me to lure her up here.

Don't even think about it!

She'll come up for sure.

As soon as she comes up... I'll go "bang, bang!"

You motherfucker!

Hello...

Jump!

Jump!

Hello...

No!

No need to be afraid.

As thanks for your cooperation in not bringing the cops,

I'll give him five more minutes.

Forget me!

Don't come up! Get away!

Get away now!

Michael, I'm coming up to save you!

No! Don't come up!

He wants to lure you up here to kill you!

Michael, don't!

You want to lure her up here? Don't be delusional!

Forever we part, Michelle!

Hurry, call an ambulance and the police!

Miss, flowers.

Excuse me.

Madam, what are your thoughts on this incident?

I'm going to avenge Michael.

Sorry, she's in the wrong frame of mind.

She'll speak to you later.

Are you crazy?

I'm going to kill him!

As a police officer, you can't say things like that!

Don't you realize the serious effect it'll have on our image?

If the reporters publish that, how do I explain it to my superiors?

I told you to take a vacation and forget about this case.

You totally disobeyed my orders and have no discipline.

Also... Michael took police evidence without authorization.

That conduct breaks the law!

Even though he's dead, I absolutely refuse to let this matter drop.

I still intend on holding him legally responsible.

You know I haven't finished.

Did you actually watch that videotape?

Why didn't you notify me as soon as you identified the murderer?

- Were you in partnership with Michael? - Shut up!

You resign?

Until it's approved, you're still my subordinate.

You have to listen to me!

You insulted your superior in public!

I want you to be my witness.

- I want you to write me a report. - I just got here!

- You saw everything? - I didn't see anything, Sir!

I won't let this matter drop!

A week ago,

the deceased shot and killed two hijackers in order to rescue a commercial airliner.

Also, a few days ago,

the deceased participated in a shootout at a restaurant in the Central District.

As to whether the murder of Wong Siu-Man

has anything to do with these recent incidents,

the police have yet to respond.

After his death, this station spoke to his close friend about the incident.

Madam, what are your thoughts on this incident?

I'm going to avenge Michael.

Sorry, she's in the wrong frame of mind.

She'll speak to you later.

Are you crazy?

I'm going to kill him!

Mr. Yamamoto?

Oh, I was told to give you this.

Miss Yip, someone asked me to give you this.

Thanks.

Miss Yip, it's said that: "for every debt there's a debtor".

This damn kid thought he could escape his crime by committing suicide...

and forever rest in peace under the yellow earth.

However, we four brothers will never let him go!

We want his corpse to have no burial place.

What does it mean to have no burial place?

This is a corpse that has no burial place!

Mr. Yamamoto... the footage you watched,

Miss Yip will also have seen.

However, the following precious clip she won't be seeing for now.

Yet, I'm sure she'll be in a hurry to get here

and recover the kid's corpse!

Come in a while, will you?

Let me state this in advance:

It's best not to use it unless you really need to.

Michael, I will avenge you!

- Yamamoto! - Quick, get after him!

I have to kill him!

I must kill him!

Let me get Michael down first.

We live together, we die together!

Yamamoto! Hurry, let's go!

Yamamoto, come on!

Your hand!
