the real murderer last night.

If I've got it right,

your right arm is injured.

Even if I am, it's from an

accident at work a few days ago.

Look at you. Your eyebrows

are pointy at the front...

...and wide at rear. You have

a black mole at your Life Palace.

You have bloodshot eyes

and crow's feet.

Someone having a face like that

is either violent or wicked.

You want evidence, don't you?

The Bluetooth-enabled speaker

can remember the users.

Turn on your phone and see if

it connects automatically.

Dad, is this true?

I don't regret this.

I love you.

I know.

- No, you don't know. I love you.

He has retrieved

the stolen gold...

...and killed the murderer

who tried to escape.

Let's welcome our new deputy chief

of Chinatown Police, Kon Tai.

I hope you will

come to Thailand again.

Thank you.

- You must come for our wedding.

Who says I will marry you,

pauper?

I have to call you aunt now?

- Of course.

Aunt? Isn't he your cousin?

Aren't you born in the 90s?

Goodbye!

- Liars!

What? You don't want to leave?

What will you miss more,

Thailand or the Thai people?

What are you talking about?

- You don't want to leave me.

Stop, stop!

What is written on that signboard?

It's the name of that bar.

It's the most famous

gay bar in Bangkok.

Sompat got divorced with his wife

nine years ago.

The room is neither messy

nor smelly.

He must be a sissy or a gay.

I thought you were

going home today.

I want to tell you a story.

Both you and that uncle

love stories.

A boy went missing. His father

had been looking for him.

He suspected that

his son was dead.

More importantly, he suspected

the murderer of his son...

...might be a girl.

The girl found out about it.

She was afraid that

she'd be exposed.

So she decided to

get rid of the father.

She knew about the perverted love

her stepfather had for her.

So she fabricated a journal...

...and let her stepfather

read it intentionally.

I wondered what was in the part

that was ripped off.

What was it that

she didn't want us to know?

Maybe it was the way

the murder was committed.

If I could kill him,

I'd find a scrapped van...

...and a fall guy first.

I'd get into his house...

...before the footages are

automatically overwritten.

I'd make him suffer thousands

of times worse than I did.

The girl didn't expect that

we'd come to her.

So she changed her plan

and used us...

...to get rid of

her perverted stepfather.

The timing the journal showed up

and its burning speed...

...were exactly on spot.

But the girl didn't know that...

...the man she framed

a rape against is a gay.

You don't stutter now.

Of course,

these are all hypothesized.

No evidence can prove the

sexual orientation of a dead man.

But I don't get it.

- Forget it.

This book says,

while we are individual lives...

...the summation of good and evil

is invariant.

Everyone plays his role

from birth.

Some of them are good,

and some of them are evil.

What are you?

Should the villain

smile like this?

So this is it?

There's nothing else I can do.

- Nobody cares about the truth.

They only believe

the truth they want to see.

Good and evil are incompatible.

When there is evil,

there has to be good.

Yes. There are so many mysteries.

As detectives of Chinatown,

we have to uphold justice...

...punish the evil

and praise the good.

The plane!

What should I do?

- How would I know?

So I have to endorse the ticket.

Or you can stay

for another seven days.

I'll take you to

the Grand Palace tomorrow.

No!

Three months later

advanced science laboratory

We are committed to

cutting-edge technical research

art gadgets here than in the 007 movies
