when you stand behind him.

Officer Miu...

You shot so well.

I did okay.

I wanted a fair match.

Same as people marks you

in the football. So what?

Aren't we friends?

Let's go.

The scores are almost tied.

You'll catch up tomorrow.

In a match, a point is a point.

No need to fear them.

They pressure you because they fear you.

To me, you're always the champion.

- Really?

- Really.

Bring me the plan.

Time me.

Okay.

Are you ready? Start!

How long?

Can you come watch the match today?

Why?

You know I don't like to see you shoot.

Just come.

No matter what, you're my champ anyway.

You'll win for sure.

These are all the targets.

These must be shot

hanging from this rope.

Standby!

Stop!

As long as I die...

They'll be rich, help me!

Why won't you help me? Help me!

Help me!

Help me...

Why won't you help me?

I beg you, please help me...

He's been here half an hour,

said nothing.

It's not good to keep everything inside.

We don't know what you're thinking.

Tell yourself what you're thinking.

I should have shot.

If I had shot...

He may not have died.

I could have saved his life.

He might have died too, who knows.

Let bygones be bygones.

Don't think too much.

Right.

I may also have aimed for his head.

Don't.

I want to see the smiling Inspector Miu.

If not, we won't come again.

You feel guilty? Uncomfortable?

I can't sleep.

My chest and head ache often.

I hallucinate.

This is normal.

Everyone reacts this way.

After a month, even 6 months.

You will still have these problems.

And occasionally depressions.

As long as you take this medication.

You'll fully recover soon.

I will?

Yes!

Just believe it's not your fault.

Think, he was a psychotic,

about to kill a group of innocent people.

You shot him to save those people.

I want to know what I'll be.

The way you were before.

Living the life you love.

A normal person's life. Life goes on.

Thank you. Doctor.

There's something

I never told the doctor.

What?

I know I killed someone.

But I'm very happy.

Really.

We're at murder scene 2,

Body D, shot dead.

Body E pushed him away after he was shot.

Bullet entered left shoulder

at 45 degrees.

Went through shoulder

and mandible into the head.

- Vincent.

- This is bad.

Be careful of your hair and dandruff.

Vincent, there's trail of footprints.

From Room 7172 to murder scene 1.

Then to the bedroom at scene 2.

It's been a short time after the crime.

We hope to find his escape route.

Only body D had enough time to react.

The shot went through his hand to body E.

He did his best security job,

but it's all the same.

No one had the chance to draw their guns.

In both rooms, everyone was shot twice.

Body E, the G4 protection target.

Was by the bed, pushed away Body D.

Was hit in the shoulder

by the palm bullet.

And wanted to run

when hit in the forehead.

Officer Wong...

Is it true the witness is still alive?

Pulse 20, blood pressure 32

Any clue of the killer? A professional?

Sorry, no comment.

Blood pressure down to 4!

Give him 30 heart presses.

I can't speak for any department.

Tentative data is here.

Yeung's criminal files are on your desk.

Preliminary forensics report in 2 hours.

Autopsy report tomorrow.

Give me a briefing in 3 hours.

let me know of any progress.

The police haven't released

any information.

In this afternoon's shooting incident.

The wounded victim's identity is unclear.

He may be prosecution's witness,

in the recent smuggling case,

C. M. Cheng.

The motive is very clear.

Keeping someone silent.

Team C may invite Yeung for questioning.

As for the killer, Joe...

We don't have any witnesses yet.

But G4s report in every 30 minutes.

So the murder was

between 14:
14 and 14:40.

We think he acted alone.

Vincent, please.

The suspect's footprint is 27 cm long.

His height is estimated at 178cm,

Normal stride,

weight about 160 Ibs., male.

Weapon is a semiautomatic.

With 0.4 bullets with large caps.

So each carries more powder.

Likely the killer's own creation.

Team A, please find out for me.

Which firearms dealers carry this powder.

Killer left no fingerprints.

Only the G4's fiber on Cheng's clothes.

We believe the killer didn't touch him.

Kim from G4 will work with us.

Immigration has sent entry and exit data.

The killer knows Cheng is being rescued.

He won't leave

with an incomplete mission.

I need a questionnaire...

from all Hotel staff

and guests after the incident.

If they've met

especially interested persons.

Remember!

The killer is our only clue

of Yeung's case.

Is that clear?

Yes, sir!

There are the data

from immigration of H.K. Macau,

and Lo Wu about all the suspects.

But no report from the airport.

When did you work yesterday?

Day shift.

From when to when?

Between 3 and 4 p.m. yesterday.

Did anything happen nearby?

No, I've just checked in about one hour.

I can't help you.

Thanks.

You Hong Kong cops workhard.

To kill 4 agents in such a short time.

He's not an ordinary killer.

He knows police operations well.

But may not be

a present of former officer.

He can get that information

from a policeman friend.

He lives alone.

Otherwise he can't practice

shooting at home.

He has a lot of guns in his house.

Self-confident, even an egomaniac.

Possibility of psychosis.

But definitely not perverted.

Because he treated them as humans.

By shooting them in the head?

Otherwise he would dehumanize them.

By riddling the bodies with bullets.

I believe he often

goes to police hangouts, bars.

Listen to talk about

cases and technology.

So he would risk it
