Marco, we have spies. Get rid of the stuff.
Flush the stuff!
Shun, flush the stuff!
Deal is off. We have spies.
What? Freeze!
Freeze!
You freeze!
Sir, if they flush all their stuff, we won't have a case.
Go.
Action!
Bring me the gun!
The gun!
Can you hear me?
Get down! Police!
Hands on your head!
Down! Don't move!
Sir, Marco is gone.
I've arranged a hideout
for you and your family.
What's the use?
What did you tell me yesterday?
You promised!
I did it because you said there would be no raid
and you would look out for me.
If they flushed it all, I'd have no case.
The department won't collapse if you miss this case, but I could die!
Marco is crazy!
Screw it. Where's my money?
Dammit.
It used to be a million, but now just $100,000.
And a lifetime of hiding.
10 grand...
Is that enough for me?
10 grand...
Hey...
Let me drop you off; it's safer.
Be honest...
Did you order the move?
It's just work.
Bastard!
You can't trust cops!
You two, guard the door!
He's here!
No...
Help! H...
Help...
Help me...
Help... Help...
Help...
Still running?
I'll teach you to be a spy!
Put down your knife!
Put it down now!
Move, and I'll shoot!
Dispatch, someone is hurt.
Don, for that drug bust
you'll be promoted; the memo's been issued.
Don't mope. Your team wants to celebrate with you.
Here's to our new Senior Inspector! Cheers!
Cheers!
Each department faces different pressures.
These are what we must face.
Sir, the rookies are all here.
Okay.
Next week, you'll each find your first informant.
Treat each one like your girlfriend.
They live by betraying others.
They trust no one.
Treat them like friends, but know when to back out.
But if I treat them like friends...
it can be hard to back out.
You must be clear on this.
I said to treat them like friends,
not to be friends.
We want information. They want profit.
Everyone is clear; the books are straight.
I know we all have feelings.
But don't think you're exploiting him.
He exploits you, too.
You mustn't let them control you.
Nor can you keep threatening them.
Keep your leash 70% tight, 30% loose.
Learn as you go.
Sir, if there's a very risky case,
should we let them take it?
It's their life.
They have already assessed the risk.
It's not that we don't care.
We do what's in our power.
We don't want anything to happen to them.
What's happening?
The Taiwan Police called.
Barbarian is back in Hong Kong.
The '06 and '08 jewelry shop robberies.
He got away both times.
He's spent the money, and is back for more.
Find men who had worked with him.
Put in an informant; I must get him this time.
Here's the informant money, $1.5 million.
Tell your men to be less generous.
Budget cuts next year.
All the informants are screaming for more money.
Neither you nor I will get a raise. How can they?
Tommy, this is Don Lee.
Get me the files on a prisoner serving at Pik Uk.
His name is...
Sai-fui Ho.
His nickname is Ghost, Jr.
I also want information on his family.
Sai-fui Ho.
I'm Senior Inspector Don Lee of Criminal Intelligence Bureau.
You'll be out in two days; what are your plans?
No plans.
You started racing with your dad "Ghost" at 14.
Drove without a license at 16.
Illegal street racing at 18.
First prison sentence at 20.
After that, assault, theft, drug trafficking.
You've spent 25% of your life in jail.
Another charge, and you're finished.
What do you want?
I have a job for you
while you're still clean
to work with the police.
Me? A stool pigeon?
No way.
You dad borrowed $800,000 before he died.
Wing is pimping out your sister.
You must think about...
how to pay the debt.
Stay out of my family affairs.
I've put my card in your bag.
Call me if you have problems.
Sir, this is Don Lee.
I have a target leaving Pik Uk in two days.
Arrange a tracking team on him.
I'll give you the files later.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
Heels down; keep your back straight.
Hi. What are you doing here?
You called to tell me my shoes are ready.
What shoes?
The heel of my shoe...
Sorry, bad memory. Please wait.
Take your time.
It's hard to find a decent cobbler now.
Your shoes are in bad shape. Buy a new pair.
We have a new shipment. Care to look?
No, I'm in a hurry; I must go.
We'll talk next time
Sure.
Goodbye.
Your sister is working at Wing Sing Hotel.
Move! Look lively.
Let's go!
Kill him.
Stop it...
Don't hit me.
I'll take over my dad's debts.
You can take over nothing!
Brother!
Don't hurt my sister...
Your dad owed my boss $800,000.
That's $1 million with interest.
You Bastard!
Let's go.
He's getting worse.
He may have to go to a mental hospital soon.
What do his wife and son say?
His son doesn't want to know him.
Doesn't want to get stabbed.
Social Services has many of these cases.
Thank goodness for volunteers like you.
Bring it to him.
Careful.
You'll move to a new place soon.
It's nice, just like home.
No...
Can't go home.
Chop up my family.
Don't talk about my family...
Get close to Tai Ping.
Tell me what he's dealing.
He's looking for a driver.
He still comes, which means he hasn't found one.
You drive well, and worked for him.
He'll use you.
If you agree, I'll give you a car.
And money to join the race.
If I don't?
You just stole a car.
Every minute you dawdle, your sister suffers.
10 cars at $50,000 each. All yours if you win.
Who's the bald guy?
Racer Ghost's son.
Just got out of jail.
Ghost, Jr.
Tai Ping.
When did you get out?
Yesterday.
Give me your number.
Sir,
Anti-Street Racing is on the move tonight.
Which district?
South New Territories.
Sir, this is Don Lee.
Anti-Racing is in South NT,
where my informant is working.
Can you talk to them?
Have they started?
Yes.
Timing is tight.
I'll try my best.
If you win, Tai Ping will want you.
It's up to you to save your sister.
Every minute you dawdle, your sister suffers.
Tunnel Exit, 8 coming your way.
High speed, careful.
Tunnel Entrance, get in position.
Chan, spot a car for me.
License plate MN5592.
Let it go.
This is a Police Roadblock.
All cars ahead, stop now!
This is a Police Roadblock.
All cars ahead, stop now!
This is a Police Roadblock.
All cars ahead, stop now!
This is a Police Roadblock.
All cars ahead, stop now!
Stop! Freeze!
Stop!
Freeze!
Okay, okay...
Did you get away?
What do you think?
Just call me when Tai Ping calls you.
I'll help you with your sister.
Stop the mounting interest.
The girl... is your family?
Don, you know Loan Shark Shum.
Wing works for him.
Shum has a huge ego.
He won't talk.
You're second-in-command there.
Of course you can negotiate.
I'm just your stoolie; it's not my job.
When we make an arrest with your information?
I announce it's because of a mole.
Do this,
or I'll announce it's because of an informant.
I've stopped the interest on your loan.
Pay it off. Then they'll let your sister go.
You can see her now.
Tai Ping wants to see me tomorrow.
We'll try to meet here from now on.
I chose it because it's full of old people.
Our targets don't come here.
There are many entrances and exits.
Don't use the same ones every time.
Incense at Earth God's altar
means I'm here.
Let's talk money.
You've heard of Barbarian?
Yes.
Tai Ping wants you to drive.
Tell me if he wants to work with Barbarian.
Your monthly pay is $20,000
with rewards when on a case.
How can I repay my debt with $20,000?
You'd get a raise...
if you arrested Barbarian.
I don't decide your pay.
How much for finding firearms,
breaking up a gambling outfit,
arresting a gambler...
All these have guidelines.
Every penny I give you and you get from me
are documented by signed reports.
All costs are recorded, all prices set.
But if you get on a case
and are at a crucial stage,
we can talk about rewards.
Once you've signed
you'll be an official police informant.
Call me as soon as they put you to work.
I'll give you guidelines.
Stay away from fights.
My immediate superior also knows about your identity.
In case anything happens to me,
he can vouch for you.
The Department of Justice
will hold this letter, which will
prove your participation is to help the police.
Sit inside.
Our driver, Ghost, Jr.
Fairing, Blast, Zipper.
You sure can eat.
Crap! You're too slow.
You Mother! How can you say that?
Bastard! Don't say "mother."
Mother, mother...
No fighting during meals.
Dee.
Barbarian.
Come, Tai Ping.
It's our first job, so here are the terms.
You three carry guns and get $3.5 million each.
Is that okay?
Yes, $3.5 million is good.
Thank you, Barbarian.
It's fine with me.
Okay.
Ghost, Jr. drives and gets $1 million.
Tai Ping and I are known faces.
We'll stay hidden until it's time.
Dee will contact you meanwhile.
Dee's words are my words.
Dee.
Drink to everyone.
What's wrong?
I can't drink.
I'm pregnant.
Congratulations, Barbarian!
Congratulations!
How many people were there?
3 guys: Fairing, Blast and Zipper;
and Barbarian's girl.
This nose, these eyes, this mouth.
Are you sure?
You seem so sloppy.
He looks sloppy; don't look at me.
Go ask his mother.
And the girl?
She must look less sloppy, right?
Did they say when they'd call you?
Barbarian said to avoid him.
His girl will contact us.
Find a way to copy her phone book for me.
Change into these.
"Now is not the time. Get an abortion."
The number you have dialed cannot be reached.
What are you shopping for?
A ring.
Here are our latest diamond rings.
Looking for a wedding ring?
No.
Let me see this.
Remember it.
Next time you come, take it for me.
Merry Christmas.
Let's take a picture.
Come, take a picture.
Come on, come on.
Take a picture here.
Say cheese.
Beer.
I thought you can't drink.
Two dozen!
Coming!
Why were the police chasing you?
I can't remember.
They always chase me.
Why were the gangsters chasing you?
I stabbed a gang leader
three times.
If not for you,
I would have died that night.
If not for you, I'd have been arrested.
Why did you come to Hong Kong?
It hurts most to be betrayed by...?
Friends?
Family.
We were poor.
Everything my siblings and I had
I won on the gambling tables.
I couldn't lose.
If I did, we'd go hungry.
For $400,000, Mother sold me
to a gang leader in Hong Kong.
The night I met you,
I stabbed him 3 times.
Barbarian rescued me, and said
he would always take care of me.
I thought he meant it.
The data on her SIM card.
You said there's a reward.
We've even scouted locations; how much?
When we make an arrest, you'll get a bonus.
How much?
I'll talk to my superiors.
I want $1 million.
You can't get it, I quit.
You're in place; Barbarian won't let you go.
You mean you can't get it.
I'll talk to another officer.
We signed the agreement; no one else can use you.
Trust me.
Trust you?
How long have I known you?
I'll trust cops when hell freezes over.
Continue to help me,
or go with Barbarian,
and I'll arrest you.
Or do neither.
I'll capture Barbarian,
and you'll be running the rest of your life.
Sir, we've tracked Barbarian's phone.
He's on Nathan Rd, near Nanking and Cheong Lok Streets.
Status of the signal?
Target has disconnected.
Signal has stayed in one position
and hasn't moved in an hour.
Tracking Team, target is extremely dangerous.
...and may be armed.
Tell me when you locate him; let Hit Team take over.
Wai, drive.
Speak.
Sir, target is active.
Now turning to receiving station on Nathan,
Parkes and Nanking Streets.
Okay.
Attention. Target is walking.
Go to Nathan Rd, Parkes and Nanking Streets, now.
Wai, let me off up ahead.
Attention. I have visual contact.
He just passed Ma Wang.
Glasses and a moustache.
Wearing brown jacket, black pants.
Target returning to roost. Ku, take the boys in.
Tracking Team, guard all entrances and exits.
This is Ku. My cover is blown.
Target is at Yaumatei Car Park.
Everyone hold. Don't enter.
Guard all entrances and exits.
Auto Team, to Yaumatei Car Park now.
Don't worry, I won't hurt you.
Sir, the signal is still in the car park.
Tai Ping, cops were tailing me.
Check on our new boys.
Your turn.
I'm just the driver.
You'll be rich after this. Any plans?
Let my sister live well.
What a good brother.
You?
Do something to make myself happy.
We'll always have sad times...
What do you mean?
Who do we miss the most?
It'll be Christmas soon.
That's when we think of people most important to us.
Have you gotten him a gift?
Now, I will give a gift to you all.
I haven't received a gift in a long time.
I'm numb about festivals.
Long ago, my sister gave me some gifts.
Then she stopped.
Now that you'll be rich,
get her something nice.
Girls like to receive gifts.
She'll be happy.
Sir, license and registration.
Please turn off the engine.
Sir, please cooperate. Turn off your engine. Engage your hand brake.
Engine off, handbrake on, license.
What are you doing?
He bypassed the roadblock.
Call for backup.
Hold on!
Freeze!
Stop!
Search over there.
Have you searched there?
We've looked everywhere; nothing.
There's nowhere to run here.
Impossible. We saw them go there.
Go back and look again.
You're lucky no one got hurt in the gun run.
I told you.
Call me as soon as anything happens.
How can I call you when I didn't know anything?
Where are the guns now?
I don't know.
How many?
One AK, five pistols.
Six?
You're excluded?
I told him I'm driving, not shooting.
What if he makes me carry a gun?
Don't shoot it.
Hello?
Ghost, Jr.
Tai Ping?
Where are you?
At home.
I'm at the door. Open up.
It's Tai Ping.
Close the door.
You said you lived at the base; whose place is this?
My grandmother's.
I found out yesterday...
she left me this place.
So I'm staying here for now.
Who lit the incense?
The granny next door.
Friend of my grandmother.
It's fresh.
This one?
Yes.
Granny, did you light the incense?
What is it?
What's happening?
Did you light incense next door?
My sister often lights incense for you. So what?
What is she saying?
Old people...
Don't get mad. It's all right. Let's go back in.
Is that all?
Yes, don't get mad...
I followed you from the MTR station.
Don't let the police tail you.
Stay put. We're working soon.
Thank you.
Don't kill me!
Chopped to death...
Marco, don't kill me...
Chopped to death...
Chopped to death.
What's wrong?
Let go.
Are you all right?
Marco... chopped me to death!
Marco isn't here.
Marco is back... I saw him.
I can't escape now.
You saw him? Where?
I saw... Marco kill.
I'm a stoolie. Can't escape.
My wife...
He'll kill her.
Tell my wife to run away...!
Tell her to run...
Chopped to death.
They've scouted ten jewelry shops.
Which do you think may be the target?
I'm still analyzing.
Let me get this.
Speak, Chi.
We found Marco. OSCB will arrest him tonight.
I called the police to arrest Marco for you.
Can't trust rotten cops.
Don't trust...
Don't trust them...
Can't trust rotten cops...
Marco is back. Don't let him see me...
Marco! Kills people.
Marco!
Be brave. It's all right...
Look at him...
Watch...
Police! Get out of the car!
Get out slowly!
Come out with both hands up!
Marco has been arrested.
I can go home...
I want to see my wife...
Go home! Go home...
I can go home!
I want to go home... see my wife...
I can go home...
I can go home!
I want to go home...
I want to see my wife...
Class dismissed.
Okay, goodbye.
Goodbye.
It's all right.
Take him to the doctor.
No need to come over. I can close up.
All right.
Bye.
Hi!
You're still here?
How am I doing?
When you're in class,
I sometimes look at you.
To be honest, dance isn't one of your talents.
Do your shoes have any sentimental value?
They're so worn out.
My wife gave me these.
I promised I would dance with her.
But I never did.
Now I want to, but I can't.
You're separated?
You've kept her shoes.
Why not think about getting her back?
I made a mistake...
I can never have her back.
Your wife's report is out.
She has syphilis.
Even if you kept the child,
it would be born handicapped.
I thought I saw Don a few days ago.
Don't let Cher go to the dance school.
Yes, Uncle.
Cher is doing well.
Doctor said she might remember again.
I'd rather she never remembered.
We know where they are. We can arrest them anytime.
No, wait till they take action.
My informant is in danger, then.
I've waited for Barbarian all this time.
I must charge him...
for more than weapons concealment.
Your stoolie is just driving, not carrying.
We arrive, he surrenders, he's fine.
I'll see if he'll do it.
No, tell him he must do it.
His $1 million has been granted.
We make an arrest. He'll be paid.
When we have stool pigeons, we must be prepared.
When they provide information, there will be danger.
My son will be married in February.
Hot off the press. You get the first one.
We stool pigeons don't have friends.
We've worked together 4 years.
I'll watch over you.
Relax., new Father-in-law.
It's their life.
They have already assessed the risk.
Trust me.
When we make an arrest, you'll be rewarded.
Trust you? How long have I known you?
I'll trust cops when hell freezes over.
Cops can't be trusted.
We want information. They want money.
Everyone is clear. The books are straight.
Well?
The $1 million you want is fine.
But I must tell you.
No one knows...
what will happen from now.
It's your life. Think it over.
Just pay me when you get your guy.
Hello.
Did Cher come today?
I don't know if she's coming.
Thanks.
Bastard! You're still after her?
Haven't you hurt my daughter enough?
Don't ever come see her again!
There's been a bad traffic accident.
Tsimshatsui...
Where is this?
Granville Circuit, Tsimshatsui.
Cher.
Hang in there.
Hang on, the police are coming...
I'm sorry...
I'm sorry, dear.
I promise I'll never let you see me again.
I'll disappear...
I'm sorry, dear.
I'm sorry.
Targets 1 and 2 have arrived.
Cougar, Sparrow, follow them.
Go inside, Elephant.
Monkey, call dispatch to check on the car KH425.
See if it's wanted.
Stay on them. They're changing cars. Things may be wrong.
We have to lose the cops today.
Fairing.
Remove their cell phone batteries. Put them in here.
Yours, too.
Yes.
Ghost, Jr., go on the bridge.
Get out!
This is Car A.
They ran across the divider and jacked a car.
They're all gone.
Did you see the plates?
No.
Where were you? We're melting the gold tomorrow.
Having an abortion, like you wanted.
I asked you, but not now.
Have you cared about me?
What? I've never cared about you?
Really?
You're just worried I can't handle tomorrow.
I'm not in your heart.
Why keep me here?
Answer it.
Hello?
Sure.
Hey!
Yes, I have another woman.
After this deal, take an extra share.
We'll go our separate ways.
Barbarian, are you two all right?
We've scouted ten places. Which do we hit?
None of them.
I have another in mind.
250 kg of gold will be delivered there tomorrow.
"Please notify..."
Here, you'll feel better.
You dare to bet with me?
Talk inside.
Tai Ping, which do we rob tomorrow?
You'll know tomorrow.
Just remember the layout.
The shop opens at 10:30 A.M.
If we wait till it opens, there will be traffic.
So we hit it at 9:30
while they're setting up the windows.
Ghost, Jr., crash the door with the car.
Zipper, you and I will supervise.
Fairing.
Barbarian, let's discuss the price.
Take him out and take his share.
Throw him down the well.
Don't get his kind again.
Yes.
Ghost, Jr.
Carry a gun tomorrow. You'll get extra.
We're one short now. Don't blow it.
Tell Officer Lee, 66820693, robbery at King Sang Gold on Chatham Rd.
Hello?
Sir, someone asked me to call you.
There's a robbery at King Sang Gold on Chatham Rd.
Freeze, all of you!
What are you doing!
You two, over there. Get down!
Get up! Over there!
Put the gold in here!
Ku, it's at King Sang Gold on Chatham.
Leung! Next street!
Hurry! Move.
Open it, now!
Bring it all out! Hurry!
Hey, come help us.
Danger! Inside!
Go inside!
Control, Officer Ku is shot.
Call an ambulance immediately!
Burn the clothes you wore today.
And the guns you used.
Blast, Ghost, Jr.
Give me your unused guns.
Hello?
Fairing, Blast, prepare to melt the gold.
Tai Ping, ask when the boat is coming.
Tommy.
Track a cell phone for me.
Hello?
Great.
Barbarian, the boat is here.
Fairing
Yes.
Help load the gold onto the boat.
Yes.
Tai Ping.
Take ten bars.
Thank you, Barbarian.
Dee.
These six are yours.
Here's one more.
Blast!
Ghost, Jr., drive for me!
Bastard!
Fairing, drive. Run over them!
Run, Barbarian.
Run.
Burn it.
Yes.
Hold on, Ghost, Jr.
Let's go.
They all wore masks.
All clothing and guns are burned.
We have Barbarian, but he melted the gold.
We have no evidence.
We can't even prove that's the gold they took.
Your informant bought the guns,
did the job and melted the gold.
To charge Barbarian, he must give a statement.
Get him to turn witness.
Some of the men have escaped.
Do you want my informant to die?
A policeman died on this case.
I won't spare Barbarian, no matter what.
If your informant refuses,
he won't get his $1 million.
Wait.
Whether he's willing is something else.
I promised him money upon arrest.
No one expected this to happen.
We can't make the charges stick.
I don't want to get another stoolie killed.
And I don't want Barbarian to walk free.
Your informant must give his statement. No buts.
I'll do my best to protect him afterwards.
No deal. You must do this.
Let her be all right...
This is Ghost, Jr.
Did you get them?
Yes.
Where's my money?
Where are you?
23A Main Street, Cha kwo Ling.
Are you all right?
Lie down.
I've found a doctor.
I've called the police.
I'm a stool pigeon.
I called the cops to arrest them.
If I don't,
I won't get $1 million for my sister.
Take the gold and run.
I have money; go to Taiwan with me.
Let's go.
I can't hide forever.
I promised I wouldn't leave my sister.
She's my only family.
You go on.
We'll go...
Lie down.
Take the money. Go.
The doctor will come soon.
I've called all day; where are you?
Almost there.
Main Street, 23A.
Thank you, Tai Ping.
Ghost, Jr.!
Run!
They went through the window.
Run.
Go.
No!
Inside!
Out that window!
I've brought your money...
The King Sang Gold robbery.
We did it.
Call an ambulance.
Yes, sir.
Call Dispatch.
Tell them we found the King Sang Gold robbers.
Here is $1.5 million. Repay the girl's debt.
Give her the rest.
Don, you're nicer to her than to me.
This is yours.
Don't take hers.
Or I'll make the rest of your life miserable.
He thinks I'm his wife.
He gave me this money that night
and kept apologizing
for leaving me and my son for so long.
Keep the money.
Please look after him for me.
He just wants to see you, hear you sing.
I'll put money in your account every month.
Is that all right?
