Brother Yuen. What's the situation?
It's ready
Get the car. OK
Here's today's paper
Will it be a wasted effort again?
Well, if only this were tomorrow's paper
we could find out what happens
Fly calling Centipede
A butterfly is picking up a car round the corner
3 more butterflies are coming down
They're on the move. Everyone stand by
Looks like we won't go empty-handed today
Hey boss, there're 2 cops
Damn it
Hold it. Let's play by ear. Keep an eye on the butterflies
Get out of the car
You know what'ya doing?
What have I done?
Why are you backing into this space?
Sorry, I was in a hurry
You're not supposed to pull up here. This is a one-way street
Sorry, I couldn't see the sign
How could you miss such a huge sign?
Sorry. I won't do it again
No. Show me your license
I just got my license
All the more reason to teach you a lesson
Please let me off this time
Pleading will get you nowhere
It's hard to make a living. The fine is so high
I'll be in trouble if I let everybody off
Where's your license?
I got it. I'm a good driver
I just missed the sign
I was just careless. I won't do it again
They're screwing up the operation
Centipede calling Bee. Get rid of the 2 bugs
Show me your ID card
Please give me a chance
Just cooperate, and show me your license
Hey, Biggie. What?
Are you trying to mess with me?
What's your problem, man?
You have an attitude problem. So?
I don't like it
What're you gonna do?
They could never see eye to eye
I had enough with you
Want to punch you up!
What's going on here?
I'll drive away immediately. Please don't give me a ticket
OK. I'll let you off just this once
Thank you, sir
What's in that bag?
I say, what's in that bag?
Hoi
Cricket, get over here and help us
Get on the car
Let's go
Hey, man
Let me
Calling Control
Go get 'em
Police. Move
There's a gunfight on Kong Ming Street
There are roughly 10 people on both sides
Both parties fired shots. They are all armed
We need back up
Hop on
Boss
Breaking news:
While following a traffic accident
our news team chanced upon a police gunfight
The suspects escaped in a hijacked ambulance
Our team filmed a policeman with his hands up
begging for mercy as a suspect pointed a gun to his head
This has caused a public uproar
Legislators challenged the police's ability to protect citizens
I am flabbergasted
Is Hong Kong still a safe place?
What will befall us citizens if the cops capitulate?
The Police Commissioner and Security Chief should come forth
They have to answer to the Legislative Council
Emergency meeting
The Legislative Council
is demanding an explanation
That's how serious it is
What's your take, Cho?
Hong Kong is basically still a safe city
Our crime rate is still low compared to other cities
We have a PERFECT S YSTEM
Bullshit. Jim
According to our past experience
we can nail the target in a week
We have a 79.8% success rate
There's no way they can get away
Koh
All frontline police shall join the hunt
We'll make a plead on television
for public support
Eric
We must act fast
Intel is crucial in this case
And the lady at the back?
Image matters most
We have to put on a show. An eye for an eye
This is the age of the media
The media got us, now we get back at them
You guys get what I mean?
Rebecca
Sorry Sir
Yes, we do need a good show
You're supporting me, or just agreeing with me?
Don't you believe in yourself?
How's your dad?
You know what kind of person I am
It's either black or white. Simple as that
That's how we were trained too
But relationship is not all black & white
Rebecca!
Sorry, sir. I'll remember to knock next time
I came in to ask if Fong is getting better
After all, we're old-time colleagues
I will nail those bastards
Boss, OCB has taken over the case
We'll nail those bastards alright
Now we're really in deep shit
I'm starving. Where can I get a bite?
Sweet potatoes
I have a weak stomach
How much is it?
$20
Boss, your phone is ringing
Inspector Cheung is busy
Please hold
It's Madam Fong from OCB
Hello?
You didn't get the low-down from the informer?
But my men sent everything to you
I'll check again and get back to you. Bye
Man
Make sure Cheung stays off the case
Send a memo to his superior
If he messes up our plans, he'll take all the blame
Yes, Madam
That's it
Got it
Boss, we got something
Everyone, get in the car
Let's go
Boss, do we have to notify
Just be careful
Ma'am, we're cops on duty. Please go back inside
So many strangers these days
The incense was just lit. They haven't been gone for long
There must be another hideout somewhere. Check up on nearby real estate agents
See if the suspects have moved in
Yes, Sir
Sorry, Sir
I have a weak stomach
Have any Chinese men with a Mainland accent
rented two apartments in a row around here?
Let me check
No
Please contact us if you get any information
Sure. Thanks a lot
If I were those bastards, I'd pick this place to hideout
Shall we snoop around here?
Didn't you hear what I said? I said "if"
Get the car
Boss, they're not sure where the suspects are
What makes you think they'll be sure?
Use your brain
I'll go back and make more inquiries
Thanks so much. Don't bother
Shun, how're things at your end?
Keep searching
You should take it easy
You only have 2 years before retirement, unlike me
Well, you shouldn't see it this way
I've been waiting for a hot case since I joined the force
Yuen, we did a good show but got no money
We can't keep hiding out like this
Tiger's dead. We can't let him die in vain
I have an idea
The police are looking for us
They won't expect us committing a heist
The most dangerous time is also the safest
Then when are we gonna do it?
Now
Tiger's death means we gotta alter our plan a bit
Long, go get us a vehicle
No luck with the last 6 apartments. 9C's the last one
Boss, do we have to inform OCB?
Let some of our men sniff out the janitors
Madam Fong
It's Cheung
I know I'm off the case, but I got wind
the suspects might be in the vicinity
Oh, what a coincidence
Of course I won't take any action
Yes
OK
Sir
We must take action whether they're inside or not
At least we'll do a good show for the media
Arresting the bandits is not our only objective
We also have to stage a good show for 6 million citizens
It's your idea, Rebecca. Don't let us down
Yes, sir
Eric, give her your utmost support
Yes, Sir
Say it
Intel confirmed they're in the building
But CID is stepping on our toes again
Just deal with the situation
Yes, Sir
Those CID guys are onto something
I got leads
Boss
4 people have gone into 9C
Get ready
They're taking action
Fall in
Our mission is to redeem police reputation
and to demonstrate
Hong Kong police can bring bad guys to justice
All citizens will see us in action on TV
We will regain their confidence
Every Brick IC officer will go into action
with a pinhole camera attached to them
FMCU
The camera will start operation the moment...
you go inside
Be careful, everyone
Any question?
No, sir
ETD 5 minutes
Yes, sir
Get down
Go
Police. Freeze
Get down
What's the situation?
Stay down
Suspect sighted. Guard the entrance. Inform your boss
Yes, sir
Yuen, the cops are here
Meet us on the 8th floor
Got it
Split
OK
The criminals just crossed fire with CID
What the hell are you doing?
Madam, we just ran into the suspects
We'll form a cordon until you arrive
Cheung
Are you here yet?
I just got to the 8th floor
Is it you, Yuen?
Stay where you are
Let's split up
Xin will join you and Chung's following me
Stay in touch and look out for each other
Escape when you have the chance
We'll meet up once we're out of here
OK
Let's go
What's going on?
Did we leak our whereabouts?
Put away the gun. Let's run
Everyone alright? Answer me
Hoi, you're OK?
I'm fine
The bastards haven't cleared out yet
Cheung, It's Rebecca. Are you OK?
There was a 'minor' explosion on the 9th floor. No officer was harmed
Stay away, police
Stay inside
Police found out the bandits' hide out
and surrounded the building
An explosion broke out on the 9th floor
The police has not yet issued any statement
We'll bring you the latest developments
Madam, Sir
All our forces are geared up for action
The monitors above will detect everything
Including wireless communication
Suspects may use walkie-talkies
Yes, madam
Tell PTU to prepare a cordon and evacuate residents
Prepare cordon
Heard what I said? Want me to repeat it?
Yes, sir
I got it, sir
Yes, sir. Thank you, sir
What is it?
What is it? Tell me
It's nothing. We're just taking you to a safe place
A large deployment of police
and PTU squadron has entered the building
Police cars and a fire engine are standing by
Madam
Sir, this is Grace, CI from PPRB
Superintendent Yeung from CSP
Morning, sir
What's the media turnout?
3 TV channels, 3 radio stations, 18 papers and magazines
5 newswires
Around 80 reporters in total
I've drafted some points for the press release
OK
You can have it in 10 minutes
What about image of our grand arrival?
The photos are ready
The coolest ones are being digitally retouched
I also got a movie director to edit the footage
Then we'll add music and sound effects
It'll deliver the punch!
Good! Hurry up and give it to the media
Yes, madam
Tell the media...
I'll feed them news every half-hour
Yes, madam
From the footage released by the police
we can see forces setting out on their mission
A black-out
It must be the police
Let's take the stairs
Police, Danger, Evacuate immediately
Take your wallets and ID cards
I'll notify residents on the 10th floor
PTU is onto it
Come down with your men
But I think the suspects, Now
Yes, madam
Check every residential unit. Make an orderly evacuation
Yes, sir
Dad, the cops told us to stay inside
I've lived long enough to know cops are idiots
Hurry up. There's nobody out there
Why don't you listen to the police?
You're cops?
Cops don't point a gun at a civilian's head
The boy's smarter than his dad
My girl
Don't kill my daughter! She's Christian
What's that got to do with it?
I dunno. I'm just talking off my head
My girl. Sister
Next time, I won't punch the pillow
We wouldn't wind up like this if it weren't for you
Hey, show your old man some respect
We don't want to hurt anyone
We just need to take refuge here for a while
How can I cooperate with you?
Turn on the TV, watch the breaking news
Don't move around
Chung, put away your gun
Police has begun to evacuate the residents
Let's check other news
You must evacuate the building
Bring your ID cards and follow me
How do you rate the police evacuation?
Excellent
They arrived within 15 minutes
and followed the right procedures
Were you scared?
Not at all. The police were by our side
Were they courteous?
The residents are evacuating orderly
They were mostly from the 1st and 2nd floors
Sources indicate
police are bugging the suspects
There're 4 of them, split into pairs
We'll bring you the latest news
Now back to the newsroom
Take it easy. There's no rush
Take them down
Didn't you hear the news?
Stay indoors and wait for police evacuation
What? I'm dumping the garbage
Boss, he has hearing problems
Seen anyone walk pass?
Haven't seen Annie for a while
Ask him where he lives and take him home
Boss, but we had an order from madam
Where do you live, sir?
Madam, the PTU Commander reports back
The gunshot came from the 9th floor
Shall we ask PTU to go up and take a look?
Cheung
Madam? We had a face off with 2 suspects on the 9th floor
Didn't you hear me? Must I repeat myself?
Take residents down the middle stairway
Now. We're almost there
Let's talk after this
Call Cheung's boss. Let him get his ass fried
Now?
Sorry, sir
You asked if we need to tell PTU to go up?
No need
Yes, madam
Command post out to PTU. Stay put
Continue evacuating 7th floor residents
Two targets on ninth floor
Yuen, we clashed with the cops on the 9th floor
Don't use our walkie-talkies. It's not safe
Remember this number. Switch SIM cards from time to time
We're in 8E
Stay in touch and find an escape route
Sure
I think they turned off their walkie-talkies
So what
How about the mobile network?
But there're many networks
Each base station handles multiple phone lines
And they are digital
What's your point?
Best we can do is to find out which numbers are in use
To pin them down, we need their passwords
Bring me 2 coffees
Yes, madam
We want all numbers coming out of this building
from the last time they used their walkie-talkies
Tell Intel to stay on this
Yes, madam
But there're loads of calls
Of course. Just deploy more staff
Ever watched a telethon? There're lots of hotlines
Yes, sir
Answer the call
Answer it
Hello?
What's taking you so long?
It's Aunt Jenny
I just saw your home on TV
Are the kids OK?
None of your bloody business
I've tried my best to cooperate
Good
Stand right there
