COLD WAR 2

Funeral services were held today to honor SSP

Albert Kwong, killed in the line of duty

during Operation Cold War.

Police top brass were all present.

HKSAR Government broke protocol

to allow the procession

to pass police headquarters

where Kwong's colleagues

bid their final farewells.

(M.B. Lee, Ex-Deputy

Commissioner, Operation)

We are public servants.

And public trust forms

the very bedrock of our authority.

The moment we take up

the mantle of law enforcement,

our duty is to serve the community.

As police officers, we are committed

to protect citizens with courage,

to defend the vulnerable with compassion,

and to uphold justice

without fear or favour.

Standing now before our fallen colleagues,

(Sean Lau, Commissioner of Police)

we have but one choice:

to honor their sacrifice

(Phoenix Leung, )

with respect and righteousness,

(Senior Assistant Commissioner, DMS)

with respect and righteousness,

(Alan Au, Deputy Commissioner, Management)

with integrity and selfless devotion.

(David Mok, )

with integrity and selfless devotion.

(Senior Assistant Commissioner, DC&S)

with integrity and selfless devotion.

(Stephen Han, Deputy

Commissioner, Operation)

May peace be found in our hero's

undying souls.

Same!

May I know who's calling?

Please hold.

Sir.

Hello?

Commissioner Lau, remember me?

Yes, I do.

Your wife Michelle Chan

owns the Sunshine Flower Shop.

Your 5-year-old daughter attends

Sunnyside Kindergarten.

Her name, Josie Lau.

What do you want'?

I want you to release someone.

Sir.

Officer Ken Wong from G4.

Rachel Ma

We're here for your protection.

We've picked up your daughter from school.

She's safe.

But we haven't located your wife.

Alan, call the Secretary of Justice

and Correctional Services.

I need Joe Lee transferred to headquarters.

No need.

You're challenging the HKPD.

I'm not challenging the HKPD.

I only kidnapped your wife.

I'm challenging you.

Don't interrupt your boss.

Whatever you do to me, I'll do to her.

I repeat, 5100-1075.

Make the video call in 10 minutes.

Someone will tell you what to do.

Commissioner.

Let me talk to him?

Joe.

What will it take

for you people to stop?

You know,

the HKPD doesn't negotiate with terrorists.

Sean Lau is not like you.

Family is his top priority.

As long as I'm alive,

I won't let you get away with this.

You just spent 350 seconds in this room.

By the time I finish this sentence,

Sean Lau will have wasted 6 minutes.

Also

You are no longer

in charge.

(Video call connecting...)

Commissioner Lau, listen carefully.

Come alone with Joe Lee for the exchange.

You have 20 minutes to prepare.

Advice?

Don't do this yourself.

You're the Commissioner.

If criminals can boss our Chief around,

the force will be compromised.

You can't put yourself at risk.

Their goal is to free Joe Lee.

I'll handle the rescue operation.

Sorry, sir.

I must remind you all that

we've already broken protocol by

bringing Joe Lee here.

The media, politicians and internet

have their eyes on us.

One false move,

it'll blow up into a scandal.

If we can't even protect our families,

what's the point of law enforcement?

Even if the hostage was a fellow officer,

I'd do the same.

I'll escort Joe Lee myself.

Sir, we understand how you feel, but

I take full responsibility!

15:
42

I hereby enact emergency measures.

Phoenix

serve as witness and Acting Deputy.

Alan

you're now the Acting Commissioner.

Stephen

take charge of the Cyber Crime Bureau.

One more thing,

next time listen carefully to what I say.

I want advice,

not comment.

Man To,

Progress?

They keep switching IPs.

We're still tracking.

Commissioner,

our 3rd Generation Command,

control & Communication (C3) System

is equipped with invisible tracking devices

I suggest that you and Joe Lee

wear two identical sets.

(Man To, Director of

Information Technology)

Yes, sir.

The last time

I brought Joe to justice,

I wanted him alive.

He deserved punishment,

not death.

If something goes wrong,

will you spare his life?

I promise you.

He'll get a fair trial.

I take that as a yes.

Do you mind

if I stay hereto keep an eye on him?

Thanks.

Team 1, we are behind the Commissioner.

Team 2, situation normal.

Sir.

Thanks.

Morning sir.

Sir, all five units are ready.

Everyone, I'm now at the

Cyber Crime Bureau.

The 2 sets of tracking devices are active.

The blue dot is the Commissioner.

The red is Joe Lee.

Commissioner Lau,

you have multiple vehicles with you.

Lose them

or your wife loses an arm.

Sir.

The caller has a counter-tracking device.

Keep trying-

Team 1 breaking off.

Team 2 taking over.

You've got some balls.

You asked for it!

The Commissioner changed lanes.

He's on Johnston Road now.

Well done, Commissioner.

Now, head to Ship Street.

Team 1 to 3, new location: Ship Street.

Standby on Lun Fat, Tai Wong West

and Tai Wong East.

Team 4 and 5, head to Queen's Road East.

Mr. Lau,

I have yet to receive

the file you promised.

What do you mean?

The security detail for the Chief

Executive, 3 Department Secretaries and

'13 Bureau Directors

over the next 6 months.

You promised to send it

when you received the $50M two weeks ago.

Just tell me.

How much more do you want?

$50M wasn't enough?

Mr. Lau, don't get greedy.

Mr. Au, morale is crucial.

Joe Lee wanted to

sidetrack our investigation.

Don't get distracted, stay focused.

- Understand?

- Yes, sir!

Stop the car.

Go to the black SUV with

the flashing lights.

The bomb

is to protect you and your wife.

The next stop is Sai Ying Pun MTR Station,

Platform 1.

How long before the bomb squad arrives?

I'll find out.

Notify MTR officials

to enact emergency measures

at Sai Ying Pun Station.

Yes, sir.

No, ii can't be a bomb.

They must know killing the Commissioner

comes with serious consequences.

Their sole purpose is to create chaos.

Mr. Lee,

we must be prepared for the worst.

Sir,

the bomb squad needs 10 minutes.

Seal off the station.

Enforce crowd control measures.

If chaos erupts at the platform,

we can still control the exits.

Crowd control measures could

lead to higher casualties.

I object.

I've given my advice.

You're the commander. You decide.

The train to Chai Wan is arriving.

Please lei passengers exit first.

Bomb!

There's a bomb!

A bomb!

Joe Lee escaped! After him!

Evacuate the platform!

Stem

- Thai way! Hurry!

- Keep moving!
