Synopsis
The Regional Crime Unit’s Senior Inspector Cheung Sung-bong has a stellar history of cracking big cases and risking his life on the front line. Yet, few of his colleagues wish to work with him because he behaves conservatively and self-righteously. Cheung’s former protege, Yau Kong-ngo, always respected him and eventually became like him. Eventually, Cheung discovered that Yau beat to death a suspect during a high-profile kidnapping of a bank tycoon five years ago. He testified against Yau, which resulted in Yau going to prison. At present, deeply involved with criminal enterprises, Yau swears to have his revenge against his former mentor.
