Cold War Page #2

Don't go any further. It's dangerous outside.

Albert

Don't worry.

Fellow, this is M.B. Lee speaking.

Listen to my orders.

Go.

(In Urdu) I'm fine. How are you there?

Hey! Put the phone down.

Who are you? What are you here for?

Put the phone down now!

Cops! Get up!

Put it down! Or I'll f***ing shoot you.

Put down your gun. Target lock, target lock. Shoot!

Freeze!

Stand still. Don't move.

Don't move.

Police! Don't move.

Team C, insert the optical fibres now.

Team C, approaching the hostages' suspected location.

Sir, we've found lots of mannequins

with radios and bombs.

I'm very confident that

I am very confident that

Hongkong remains the safest Asian city.

This reputation ...

Sir.

Open the door

Sorry, sir.

Open the door.

We're afraid we can't, Sir.

If Albert is with Lee,

tell Albert that

I want to see him.

Tier One Response! How dare he?

What can I help you with?

I believe intelligence is key to

a successful operation.

If you can't read any information

because of your rank,

just let me know.

I suspect this hijacking case

is somehow linked to M.B. Lee and his son.

I want to see Lee's conduct report at the executive council meeting

and his background check.

I'll send you a copy

in an hour

Thank you.

Trust your own judgement.

Extreme times require

extreme measures.

I understand.

Come in.

Looking for me?

Come in. Coffee.

Thank you.

Sit down.

Did you get any leads from the questioning?

I passed by the room

but wasn't allowed in, even at my rank

Those South Asians were just being used.

Secretary Luk just came by,

You should have run into him

if the interrogation finished earlier.

Cut to the chase.

I understand how Lee feels.

But we're the top management of disciplined forces.

His role as a father can't override his role as a policeman

when he makes decision.

Police ... beyond the destiny of

I know Secretary Luk thinks highly of you.

He must have made a deal with you.

Yes, he did.

Can you tell me about it?

Just not now.

Ok. What you've just said,

I can't pass it on for you.

Please tell my boss directly.

Just disregard this visit.

I prefer latte.

An Emergency unit van

with five cops

and all the equipment in the van.

What's it all worth?

I don't have much time.

I'll contact you again before 3pm today.

Ignore him. Don't save us.

Don't!

Has the Commissioner been informed?

Have you cheched the file's properties?

We tried.

But they have been overwritten.

It's almost 9.

We'd normally issue a press release now.

Lau, if I were you

I'd tell Lee about this video right away.

Lau, 20 minutes ago

a hijacker called 999 once with an unregistered mobile phone.

He asked if we'd finished the calculation.

I've set up another system in the conference room

to help your work.

A video from the hijacker.

Yes, call IT and forensics

to the Commissioner's room.

Now.

An Emergency unit van

with five cops,

and all the equipment in the van.

What's it all worth?

I don't have much time.

I'll contact you again before 3pm today.

Ignore him. Don't save us.

Don't!

Lau.

The total sum base on your estimate is on the last page.

The riddle is about an EU van,

five cops and all the equipment.

It's easy to calculate.

Probably net more than $ 45 million.

No, it can't be that simple.

There must be something left out.

When it comes to money, everyone wants more.

If this is the answer, they

underrate us too much.

Who are these people?

Daring to pull such a big stunt?

The former Commissioner taught me

the biggest enemy of the Police Force

is always from inside.

Vincent, I want a list of

all dismissed staff since the handover.

I can think of no more than five people

capable to taking down the Hongkong police.

What a coincidence. Part of puzzle

is the five cops being held.

May, call the Administartion Bureau.

Find out the death compensation for an officer's family.

Five policemen. Why could it cost so much?

Preparing for the worst.

It's assuming all five of them die.

Lau, the man has been confirmed.

He's the driver, Johnny Wong. The hijackers are animals!

How is he?

He was found unconscious.

Accident and Emergency suspected a heart attack.

CCTV captured the van dropping him off.

The van's plates have been confirmed as fake.

They're obviously testing our limits,

especially Lee's.

Attention

It's been more than 10 hours

since our EU van disappeared last night

Not long ago, the hijackers left

a seriously wounded officer

at a hospital Accident and Emergency entrance

This action is seriously

provoking the Police Force.

I'll inform the Security Bureau later

and sign the executive directive

Due to the increasing gravity of the case

I'm now activating

Tier Two Response.

All districts' morning duties

will be extended for two hours.

All front-line staff must cancel their leave.

Inform the Marine Police,

the airport and public transport.

I need two thirds of the Police Force

in the rescue operation

I want to dismiss Lee from duty.

Impossible.

Why?

If you want to take over from Lee,

according to the structure,

you need to dismiss him as Acting Commissioner.

You need to prove dereliction of duty

or his inability to handle duties

due to health reasons,

And the whole procedure

takes about two weeks.

Right. That's the normal procedure,

but not now.

Don't you remember what you told me last night

when I came back to headquarters?

Lee activated Tier One Response 20 minutes ago

in his capacity as Acting Commissioner.

Since last night,

as head of the Police Force,

Lee announced Tier One Response

without consulting management

He did it simply to

deploy the force easily.

He's already done

the most difficult part for us.

To apply state of emergency here,

you need at least

five votes from police officer management.

Currently, half of the members are in Copenhagen.

You don't have five votes.

Albert

Albert Kwong?

He's always been on Lee's side,

but still, he has the highest academic qualifications in management

and will have a Phd in law in six months.

He understands

the rule of law better than any of us

I just talked to him.

He's hesitating.

Thanks, Albert.

This time it's solely based on legal-system considerations.

If I discover that you have any trick in this

to harm my boss,

I'll do even worse to you in return.

I wont't let you down.

When should we take action?

In three minutes.

Why?

Gibe Phoenix some time.

She has two votes in hand.

Morning, Mr Lee.

Any breaking news I should follow up?

Take a look at the headlines.

If there's no problem,

I'll send you the Chinese and English versions.

Article 8B isn't right.

Operation Cold War is still going on.

I don't want to announce the emergency status to the public.

I don't get it.

I said it clear enough.

Do you need me to repeat it?

You just asked me to censor the news.

Lee, I don't think this is in the Commissioner's authority.

Wrong. I know the Police Ordinance better than you.
