But my colleagues are all inside!

There's no way out at the back...

Don't block my way. There's a door at the back!

Can't get in here. Go up there!

Go to the balcony! Balcony...

Hurry up...

Help me,,,

Ah N in!

Help!

Ah N in!

Hold the rope tight! Grab it tight!

Young master,,, Ah Chung, at the back!

Ah Ngau!

Help! Some are still here! Help!

Help! Some people are still here!

Help! Help...

Young master! Young master...

Young master!

Captain!

This case is suspicious,

Someone deliberately started the fire!

Who? Who started the fire?

Who started the fire? Who?...

Quit putting on an act!|You're the one who started the fire!

What do you say?

My boss is called Lau Shing.

I never know why he did that.

He set fire right there,

Fortunately I ran swiftly,|otherwise I was already burnt alive.

Iron Dragon Prison

What then?

I ask you what then!

I'm innocent!

Innocent?

After being here for so long,

as soon as I hear someone say he's innocent.

I can tell straight away|if he's telling the truth or not.

I'm really innocent!

Innocent?

I believe that you are stitched up. my lord

you cured my god-grandmother's|illness for no repay!

As she says, "as you sow. so shall you reap"!

I promised my god-grandmother to repay you|if ever I had the chance!

Fine, You let me go then,

I have a wife and a daughter,

We haven't met together for as long as 4 years,

Let me go.

To be honest...

Paying back has nothing to do with letting you go.

It is police's duty to catch you,

I'm responsible for watching you.

I can let you eat well and sleep well.

With me, you can live here for 5 years.

Please help me to hire for a lawyer.|I'm going to court!

Can you help me?

Do you know any lawyers?

Your case has 7 deaths involved.

You'll have a hard time finding|a lawyer who'll touch it,

And even if you find one,|what are you going to pay him with?

Your fortune's on hold-all your assets|have been frozen!

Hey. that doesn't mean you should|just curl up and die!

I know a good lawyer who speaks good English,

and most important.|she has never lost a case yet!

But...

The question is,|whether she will fight for your case or not...

Fight! Of course I'll fight!

Yes! Yes!

How about taking the case then?

You crazy? No way, no way!

But it's a case of injustice!|The man was framed!

Win the case, and you'll make your name!

What if I don't win? He will be executed.

I'll have his death on my conscience|for the rest of my life!

No way!

You must fight, You'll lose for sure,,,

Go to hell!

Go to hell...

Hey...what are you doing?

I s that you or me who is the cricket?

What do you stab it for?

You also!

Stop!

Sorry,,,

Stop arguing,,,

Where're you going?

I'm going for a pee! Don't follow me,

Dad. help!!!.

Dad. help!!!.

Dad. help!!!.

Watch my father's cremains!

No,,,

Damned girl! Do you know you've pissed

all over my burial spot?

The spot's called "Ravens Descending on a|Field"!

The feng shui would have ensured generations|of our Lam family to be great court officials,

even Prime Minister. for all posterity!

Now you've ruined everything!

I ask you. do you know what you've done!?

Dad. of course I knew what you were up to!

That's why I went so far to pee

How can my piss possibly go from here,,,

You,,,

That's right! Even pissing standing up,,,

...the best I can do is reach this far!

There's no way anyone could piss|all the way to your raven's nest!

Stop talking!

It would be perfect to make you dumb.

Talk or I'll cut yours off

and feed the chicken!

What do you know about feng shui?

I don't scold you of peeing into here,,,

but the dirty!

The urine ruined it's spiritual aura!

And this is why crows fly everywhere.

This "Ravens Descending on a Field".|Let me tell you...

It's an extremely moving spot.

It either stops moving. or if it moves...

it shakes the entire world. Ultra prosperous spot,

Your granddad hadn't been buried here,

Otherwise, you wouldn't just be a lawyer.|you'd be the Minister for Justice!

So what do we do now?

It's all over!

Now that the feng shui's been destroyed,|there's no future in whatever we do!

Forget about lawyer,|you wouldn't even get to be a chef.

Hey hey hey. I got to be a lawyer

entirely on my own hard work in my study!

Look.

I'm a graduate of Law School|with First Class Honors.

with a license to practice signed|by the Chief Justice himself!

Are you telling me all these signatures came

That's right!

Siu Chin became a lawyer by her own hard work!

Stop talking or you'll have your tongue cut off!

With your mediocre talent,

Will you be really a lawyer?

The mother of the great sage Mencius moved house|3 times to find a good environment for her son,

Your father moved house dozens of times,|I can't even remember the number,

before I found this place with good feng shui,|not to mention a superb burial sport for our|ancestors,

all for your benefit!|And you dare tell me you don't believe in it?

That's right too!

As a lawyer, Siu Chin must believe|in some sort of feng shui.

Sure sure! I believe it!

Without feng shui.

how could you have conned money|out of so many people to bring me up?

You damned girl!

You've intended to anger me!

Do you think you really are able?

Which part of you looks like a lawyer?

You've practiced law for so long.|and I've yet to see you shine!

Listen, You...try it...

Let's see you really do something great|without relying on my feng shui!

That's right! Take on that big case and win it!

Show him!

Fine! I'll show you!

The "Sin Cho Tong" case. I'll take it

And see if I'm capable of being a lawyer,

If I lose...

I'll let you cut mine off and feed the chicken.

What are you doing here?

Stop arguing! Stop arguing...

Are you all right?

After a couple of visits, it'll seem like home!

My lord,

this is the lawyer I told you about,

Go sit down.

This little girl's really a lawyer?

Don't judge her by her small size, my lord. Looks!|she's actually older than she

Most important, she's a First Class Honors|graduate from Law School! Wai

She looks like a cosmetologist more,

Girls love beauty.

You said she's experienced and has never lost?

Sure,

She's really never lost a case--doing divorce!

I am not lying,

What about murder?

You can't say she's ever lost a case|if she's never fought one before!

Get away! Get out of here! My lord...

And you. get away!

Look at yourself, Lawyer?

Never gets lost,,,

But you've been putting on make-up!

Be cleverer if you want to fool me!

Did you or did you not kill anyone?

Does anyone believe me if I say no?

As long as you're innocent.|then you have nothing to fear,

Whoever the lawyer representing you. be it a man|or a woman. be it someone tall or short,

the case will go in your favor,

Mr Lau. if you have no other questions,|shall we begin?
