Double Tap Page #3

Synopsis: What begins as an innocuous entry into a gun competition eventually steers Rick towards a path of fatal rivalry. With extensive training, Rick emerges as one of the finest shooters in town. Three years down the line, four members of a G4 unit have been murdered; the suspects clear out any possible evidence. A top CID officer, Miu, narrows the suspect list down to just Rick, whom he had met in the shooting arena on the final day of the gun competition three years before...

and stay at the hotel.

To watch us work.

Officer Miu, we got a call

from the hospital.

Good news and bad news.

The good news is?

C. M. Cheng will live.

And the bad?

He may never regain consciousness.

And become a vegetable.

Keep this under wraps.

Why?

The killer will go to kill him again.

If I were he.

I would not move yet.

I would wait.

Until I know I've failed.

Money is not important.

Killing makes me feel I'm alive.

Why shoot at the head?

It's risky.

You say he knows police operations.

He knows they wear bullet-proof vests.

But there's the lower body,

a larger target.

He thinks it's a game,

the harder the better.

Only a few people in Hong Kong

can do this in under 10 seconds.

Mr. Yu, please come with us

for questioning.

Mr. Wong, you have a meeting at 2.

Move it to 4;

call the driver to come at 3:15.

Mr. Wong, come with us for questioning.

Good morning, Mr. Ho...

Stop running! Freeze!

Stop or we'll shoot!

What lawyer? We're not charging you.

Yes, officer?

Sir, I have a few more meetings.

He used a real gun, This is an air gun.

Can't he shoot air guns

after the real one?

Your name?

Yu Chi Wah.

Why did you run when you saw us?

I thought you were the loanshark.

We heard you excel in practical shooting

and say you've done many double taps.

I was just bluffing.

Of course I'm not the best.

Let the lefty in Room 1 go.

Do you know C. C. Yeung?

Yes, he takes advantage of people.

When did you last see him?

When I left his company 3 months ago.

Where were you on November 28th, 1999?

Don't you have ashtrays?

Do you know the man in the photo?

No.

They say they know you.

And do you know Mr. K. S. Li?

Yes.

Same thing. I'm famous, people know me.

The question is,

does Li know you, right?

All right.

Let's start over.

Your name?

Please ask relevant questions.

Almost there.

Wei, Room 4.

Name's Yeung.

It's so common.

Do you have a first name?

Yeung Ching Cheung!

What? What do you want?

I'm not afraid! My lawyer is here!

Can't the police dept.

have power failures?

Inspector Miu,

the suspect is finally talking.

He was with someone else's wife.

Call his wife to bail him out.

Any more suspects?

They're here.

Mr. Pang, are you still altering guns?

No.

Your present occupation?

None.

Do you know anyone in these photos?

Am I close enough?

Be serious!

Shall I show you photos of the corpses?

I knew you did it.

you could have shot anywhere.

But you got him in the head.

Like the G4's in the hotel.

Professionals go for the heart.

Only you go for the head; you're insane!

These are not recent photos.

I don't know anyone here,

can't help you.

Only you can do

How much longer can we hold him?

About 20 hours.

Apply for a search warrant now.

Put Joe and Forensics on standby.

Anything new?

No.

We found numerous weapons in your house.

You live with him;

you're an accomplice?

Things don't look good for you.

May I have some water?

Power failures again.

And you, Officer?

I know him.

Well, Rick?

I haven't seen you

on the range in 3 years.

Why did they bring you here?

What do they suspect you of? Murder?

You're an expert in shooting,

not killing.

What is the police thinking?

Bringing in everyone who shoots.

That's hundreds of people.

They don't look suspicious.

Shall I get you a lawyer?

Get some paper, writes this down.

Got it? It's my number.

I'll let you know my arrangements.

You must have a new number by now.

I don't have your number.

Never mind.

Look, don't be afraid.

You alter guns, that's a legit business.

You didn't kill,

and they have no evidence.

They would have gotten you if they did.

And not beating around the bush.

You think they're so great?

See till they find your gun.

He's the one.

Great!

Don't you have anything to say?

Where did I go wrong?

Go on.

Joe, how's things there?

Also 1.75.

I've tested them all; they're fine.

Likes to alter guns... bearings.

Test the guns again with these bearing.

You visit him every year.

Yu.

I see the flowers you put at his grave.

You, too.

I don't think anyone will forget it.

I've wanted to know.

Why didn't you shoot him?

Because he's your friend?

No.

You were chicken.

You are the champion.

But only of paper target shooting.

You don't have the courage.

I tell you,

shooting at paper and at flesh...

They feel completely different.

From that day

I knew guns are made to kill people.

Guns don't kill. People do.

No more speeches about guns being good.

People invented guns...

To kill people.

You killed C. M. Cheng.

Yes, I killed people.

And the 4 agents in the room.

But that was a long time ago.

I forget.

You were there; you saw it happen.

How does it feel to kill?

You want to know that?

I'll let you find out.

But I'm afraid you'll be addicted.

Did anyone tell you,

you're changed in 3 years.

And I have you to thank?

You're giving yourself excuses.

We found many altered guns in your home.

You can't tell air guns from real ones?

We won't miss any clues.

We'll meet again.

Sure.

We must finish

the final stage in our match.

Hope we can.

I'm going to say hello to Colleen.

She said that

all the guns we found are hers.

We'd to ask her here, Formalities.

You have to release me in 3 hours.

But I want to wait for Colleen.

Please get us some breakfast.

Sure.

Sit here.

Your birthday is in a few days;

take it easy.

We found the guns in your home.

But the owner doesn't have to be you.

All the guns are mine.

If an air gun has

a burn radius of 2 or more.

It's legally a real gun?

Illegally concealing

a weapon is a felony.

Did someone lie to you?

No, I knew it going in.

Why are you doing this for a man?

Have you ever loved someone?

It is my regret to release you.

You're praising me.

Don't! Stop!

Enough!

Time's up,

or I'd have demanded inspection.

Release her, Miu.

Let's go.

I'm officially arresting you.

Your air guns

have greater than a 2 radius.

Don't you dare frame her!

Want to fight?

I won't charge you

for attacking an officer.

No!

Take her away!

Miu, don't frame her.

Let her go.

I believe my co-worker.

Colleen admitted the guns are hers.

We work with evidence.

If you've evidence, charge me now!

We've evidence she's concealing firearms.

Mr. Pang, we've released you; you may go.

You will regret this!
