they remained on police

payroll as informants.

If your suspicions are correct,

Lee will strike back.

Sir.

Mok,

do you know why I asked you here today?

Because you're a sensible person.

How can I help you?

I've decided to return to the force.

But before that,

I need you to remove Sean Lau from office.

We have the power to

legally remove Mr. Lau.

As for your reinstatement,

No need not worry about that.

Technically speaking,

I'm on pre-retirement leave.

Once Lau is removed,

Stephen will be appointed

Acting Commissioner,

I'll take care of the rest.

I'm not the only Senior Officer vested

with the power to co-sign

the petition for his removal.

Alan is too close to Mr. Lau.

He can't be objective.

Everyone knows that

Chan never got along with Mr. Lee.

He won't agree to sign.

Phoenix used to work under you.

She'll do whatever you say.

If we pull this off,

I'll make you Deputy Commissioner.

Sir.

My decision will have nothing

to do with your offer.

Let me repeat one last time:

You're a sensible person.

Phoenix

Mr. Han, I have loads of paperwork.

Please get to the point.

Phoenix, have a seat.

With respect to the shootout

at Shing Mun Tunnel,

we've received over a hundred complaints.

In the past two days, every newspaper

and radio phone-in program

is critical of police for

not following standard procedure.

But Commissioner Lau captured Joe Lee.

Shouldn't we all adopt a fairer view?

A fairer view?

We're still unable to rule out

if any of the victims were hit by

Mr. Lau's bullets.

At least four of them

are filing lawsuits

against the Commissioner.

Everyone here wants what's best

for the police force

and the Commissioner.

But if we must

choose between the two,

Phoenix

I'm sure you know which side to choose.

Starling with Joe Lee's

removal from prison,

Mr. Lau has stated repeatedly that

he assumes all responsibility.

I want you to deliver this document

to Mr. Lau yourself.

You two decide

if the removal of the incumbent

Police Commissioner will come into effect.

I won't sign it.

I don't have the slightest

bias against Mr. Lau.

I'm doing this

to save the force.

I never guessed that

Mr. Mok would take the lead.

Neither Stephen nor Mok is at fault.

Sean.

I forced Lee to surrender his authority

using the exact same means.

That's how they keep me in check as well.

It's a necessary mechanism

for preventing top officials

from abusing their authority.

If you don't sign it,

no one in the force

will listen to you again.

According to sources close

to the police management,

Commissioner of Police

Sean Lau has requested

a leave of absence for heath reasons.

- Deputy Stephen Han

- You're back.

Will serve as interim Commissioner.

Where is she'?

Sleeping-

Staying here might not be safe.

Take the earliest flight tomorrow?

Take Josie to mother.

My home is where you are.

We're not leaving.

Michelle,

I'm already.

To me and our child,

you'll always be the Police Commissioner.

Sir.

CCB found evidence that

the 3rd Generation C3 System

may have been compromised.

Stop using police tech

for our investigation.

- Sir.

- The clean team will follow the case.

From now on, keep your distance.

You must not be implicated.

Mr. Kan.

My protg left this for me.

How did you

Cloud storage.

Bella was very meticulous,

always prepared for the worst.

I never guessed that it was Peter Choi.

The Cold War inquiry gave me my first clue,

and Bella's death further

corroborated my theory.

Someone is exploiting

the power of the legislature

to purge political opponents.

Even though I disagree with your methods,

I believe you have the ability to

bring these people to justice.

But it's not yet time

to make a clean sweep.

Senior Officers may petition

the removal of the Commissioner

for dereliction of duties.

But I've never declared

a city-wide tactical alert.

According to the Police Protocol,

I have 2 weeks before the handover.

Let's locate the missing EU van

before the deadline.

Tie everything up by then

for any chance of winning.

Mr. Kan sent Wilson to help us

on the condition that

we share our findings.

The traffic camera videos revealed

that prior to her accident,

Ms. Au was parked on Wang Lung St.

M.B. Lee's car was also there

for more than 30 minutes.

According to the photo's file properties,

it was taken at 18:45.

Lee made a return trip to the body shop

within 30 minutes.

How far could he travel?

Sir, I don't think I follow.

Regardless of who the new Commissioner is,

the search for the missing EU van

must continue.

I formed a clean team outside the force.

For security reasons,

they change locations periodically.

Right now, they work from

the HKU Cavern Reservoir.

I ask that you ensure their safety.

In case I lose,

Mok,

the future of the police

force depends on you.

- We found nothing.

- Let's go.

Nicole, fly higher.

Don't let them see us.

Nicole

Set up a stakeout outside the junkyard.

We've confirmed the identities

of the men in the junkyard.

They all worked under M.B. Lee.

All had death certificates issued.

(One day prior to the transfer of power)

Sir.

We confirmed your suspicions

about the C3 System suppliers.

We've found a lead,

but we need more time.

We may not be fully confident.

But tomorrow,

let's show them our hand.

Sir,

officers are expecting you

at the conference room.

Mok,

please proceed.

Everyone,

this meeting is held in response

to the joint petition

made two weeks ago by five Senior

Mok, please hold on.

Everyone.

Today's meeting

should be chaired by me.

There're still 4 hours left

before I step down.

I have one last mission

to complete before leaving.

Of course,

I hope to have your support,

especially yours,

Mr. Lee.

4 hours will go by quickly.

Who would dare defy Commissioner's orders?

I received a reliable tip

on the location of

the missing EU van.

These are Joe Lee's accomplices.

Someone here should be

able to recognize them.

This operation concerns

the honor of the force.

In terms of ability and experience,

the best man to command this operation

is Mr. Lee.

On one condition

I decide who to take with me.

Of course.

But I have a request.

When you brief your team,

do not disclose any

details of the operation,

until the moment you take action.

Too much is at stake, you understand.

Stephen

you assist me.

Set up 3 teams with SDU and Crime Unit.

Everyone must have served with me before.

Also,

exclude anyone who joined

the force after 2005.

Mr. Lee.

I'll send Alan to back you up.

No.

Phoenix, you come with me.

Mr. Lee, it's against protocol.

You're not in charge of this mission.

Alan, Mr. Lau, I'll go.

Mr. Lau,

no activity detected.

Do we just monitor these

5 Senior Officers' mobile devices?

M.B. Lee didn't disclose

any operation details during briefing.

Anyone who leaks any intel

will be implicated.

(Once we get out, inform Mr. Choi

to warn our men)
