You should all lay low until the dust settles.

This is our turf!

Laos, Burma and Thailand never got us,

so why the f*** should we fear China?

Boss is furious.

He demands you to explain

how things got this far.

I've done everything he's asked for.

How I did it is none of his business.

If he really wants an explanation...

There's your explanation, P'Som!

I'm Naw Khar, I'm not afraid of anything!

Gao,

Naw Khar is wanted for many crimes

in the other three nations.

We can't let him fall into

the hands of the other nations,

so we have to be the first to get him.

Qifu has already obtained intel

on Naw Khar's group.

Gao Gang.

Fang Xinwu.

We finally meet in person

after getting your intel for so many years.

Nice to finally meet you too.

Quite a huge farm you've got here.

The hills that you see in front of you

were all opium farms.

Looks like alternative development

changed everything.

That's good.

The problem is...

it hasn't changed the nature

of the Golden Triangle.

These are residents of villages nearby.

Drug dealers forced them to plant opium.

When they refused, their limbs were chopped off.

Morning!

Good morning, Mr. Qifu.

Don't forget our movie screening tonight.

7 o'clock. See you there, Mr. Qifu.

Our intel tell us that

Naw Khar and his backbone members

have left their strongholds.

Ongsa, operations commander.

A bodyguard who also handles

kidnapping and looting.

Ya Ta, business and trading.

San Kyi, logistics and money laundering.

These three men are

the backbone members of Naw Khar's group.

Naw Khar arranges their duties himself.

Who is Nah Htuu?

Naw Khar's eldest son.

Why is Naw Khar's picture so blurry?

That photo was taken

ten years ago by the Interpol.

It also happens to be the one and only.

How could that be?

He's been active for the past decade.

Why isn't there more on him?

Naw Khar always acts under the radar.

He's hiding out in the mountains

of the Golden Triangle Special Region.

It sits at the intersecting point of Thailand,

Laos and Myanmar.

It's under the three countries' jurisdiction,

but its location makes law enforcement

almost impossible.

Adding corruption into the equation,

the region is a "No Man's Land",

a paradise for criminals.

This is where Puja is

holding Naw Khar's man Yan Taung Pha.

If we can extract Yan Taung Pha,

it should get us some leads.

Who is this Puja?

One of the five kingpins in the Special Region,

He's the most powerful one after Naw Khar.

What's your plan?

I've already planted a mole.

But remember,

whatever happens,

you have only 15 minutes to complete the mission.

This is a complicated case.

There's a larger power working behind the scenes.

We must be careful and stay out

of the local police's sights.

If anything happens,

keep your identities secret.

There's only one entry way

for the entire district.

A metal detector has been installed there.

That means no one can carry guns inside.

It's how they keep trouble away.

The chance of a gunfight is minimal,

but these guys are brutal with their axes.

Every day at noon,

a beer truck arrives for delivery.

The whole process takes about 15 minutes.

The plan is to use the beer truck

to extract Yan Tuang Pha.

Panoptes, monitor the surroundings

with your drone.

If anything happens,

I'll ask you to activate the signal jammer.

Aphrodite, take Bingo with you.

The others will follow the Bulls as backup.

All guns will be loaded

with low-speed rubber bullets.

Our mission

is to extract Yan Taung Pha

without causing any casualty.

Everyone is in position, Chief.

Captain, the truck is here.

We have a situation, target is missing.

Gongchai,

the target is missing. Where else he can be?

He was right there earlier...

The informant didn't see anyone

move Yan Taung Pha.

Aphrodite, let Bingo in.

Copy!

Bingo is in.

Poseidon,

let's stick to the plan.

Copy that.

Bingo.

Bingo, sniff.

Go!

Remember, our target is Puja.

What about Yan Taung Pha?

Just f***ing kill him.

He's embarrassed our boss.

Listen up. The target's life is in danger.

I'm gonna snatch him!

Panoptes, jam their signal now!

Copy!

- Can you hear me?

- Do you copy?

Go!

Let's go back Captain up!

We're exposed.

Panotpes, any other way out?

Take the rooftop. There's a cable there,

it's connected to another rooftop.

Bingo,

retreat!

There's trouble in there!

Lock the gate!

Get over here!

Go! Go!

Aphrodite,

pick up Captain. Turn left in 200m!

Copy!

You guys stay right here.

Go help Captain!

Okay!

See if we can use that net!

Captain, you go ahead!

We're out of time! Go!

Captain, there's a hut at your 12 o'clock.

Jump down to the alleyway.

Turn left at the end for the exit.

At 300 meters,

take a left after the blue metal gates.

Then take the small path

at the 2 o'clock direction.

Hurry up!

Bulls, we're on our way out.

Request for assistance!

Chief, we have an urgent situation.

Permission for the Bulls to strike!

Granted.

Blow it!

F***!

Captain! Hurry!

Hurry!

Chinese?

Move it!

(Burmese) Who are you people?

Why did you save me?

Ammo!

Hermes!

We have enemies in pursuit!

We're right behind you, Captain!

Aphrodite, are you okay?

I'm fine!

F***!

F***ing hell!

This is the Golden Triangle, Captain!

So what if this is the Golden Triangle?!

My informant is exposed!

Didn't we have an agreement?

15 minutes means 15 minutes!

You were to f***ing retreat,

no matter what!

Out here, you have to do things my way!

Are you finished?

We had one chance to save Yan Taung Pha.

I had to take it!

If we had failed, we could've found other leads!

You're f***ing responsible for intel.

I make the f***ing calls!

If we're going to keep working together,

you have to follow my lead!

Forget it. Take my car.

Make a left at the corner ahead.

Which one?

You just passed it.

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

What's wrong?

Puja is hot on my trail. I need to leave now.

Don't panic...

Get to the train station.

I'll bring some cash. Okay?

Gongchai's on the run.

Wait for me in the car.

Call me if anything happens.

Call me if you need anything.

What's the matter?

I'm sorry, Qifu...

I didn't want it to be like this!

They got to me first...

you have to help me!

Where did they go?

What's your location? I'm coming over.

Don't! I'm exposed.

I'm behind the snack shop

at the far end of the platform.

Gongchai will be where I dash out.

Help me protect him.

I'll handle the rest.

Search again!

Over there!

Piss off!

Let me go!

I have to say...

I'm not used to seeing that look.

You should keep your disguise on!

Well, you don't look too bad yourself.

Icarus, pass me a plate.

Sure.

Watch out, don't burn yourself.

I think...

You really remind me of somebody.

Yep!

Who is that?

Many people said so!

But I can't tell who...

Watch!

Aaron Kwok!

Aaron Kwok...

Aaron Kwok.

I'm starting to doubt your intel.

Time to eat!

Let's introduce ourselves!

My name is Guo Xu!

Just call him Poseidon. He's always moody.
