Overheard Page #4

My lawyer visited Kelvin yesterday.

I said I'd call the cops

if he wouldn't sign the papers...

and sue him for illegal eavesdropping.

Kelvin went to his firm this morning.

Where are you right now?

I'm busy.

I'll call you back later.

OK.

- Bye.

- Bye.

Twenty years ago, I was setting up

my first business in California.

I invested some German-made

convertible cars.

My first client, an Italian gangster.

I get him in the car, he started it up,

He started tell me about the roof.

He said...you know this...convertible car

should get a problem with the roof,

you know there was leak when it rains.

I knew it didn't rain in California,

So I said to him, I said,

if it rains, if the roof leaks,

I open the door and I'm gonna jump out.

What do you think happened next?

Almost as I finish saying that,

it starts to rain,

next thing you know

water's dripping down on this guy's head.

You know what I did next?

In business...if you're wrong, you admit it.

Then you rectify your error!

If you refuse to admit

your error or rectify it,

I'm sure I know how to help you!

If anything happens to E&T tomorrow...

you don't need to jump off a car,

just jump off a building!

Johnny.

Sit.

I decided to divorce Mandy.

We've dragged on for so long.

Now that the decision is made,

I'm feeling totally relaxed.

Let's have a drink after work.

No need. I'm fine.

Don't worry. Between us,

we don't need to spell everything out.

- Inspector Wong.

- Sir.

Kelvin...

Ask the colleagues of

Criminal Investigation Bureau to go home.

The mission has been aborted.

Johnny, pack your things.

Yes, sir.

Let's have a chat.

- Chief...

- Inspector Wong, phone.

Vice Chairman of

Securities and Futures Commission.

I know, Mr Ha.

People don't respect the government.

It's not about pumping up one stock.

A market maker is manipulating

five stocks of...

the same family!

According to our initial intelligence,

the main perp is E&T.

Your unit must've gathered something.

What are you saying? You suspect us?

Yes!

and night shifts for more than two months.

Lots of resources have been spent.

Many people are watching this show!

When did Securities and Futures Commission

start watching the Police?

I didn't say that.

But we're on the same boat in this sh*t.

We should share everything.

Our Commercial Crime Bureau

has taken back the video...

and recordings for investigation.

I also want your staff's financial info.

As you know...only you have access

to the files of Criminal Investigation Bureau.

You know I have the right to refuse!

I'm not here to discuss with you.

I'm here to inform you.

Thank you.

Johnny.

Get off and pack your stuff.

Let's just flee.

What you talking about?

You have a family. How can you flee?

We are loaded. We can go anywhere.

Guacamala, Costa Rica, Ivory Coast.

Hey, they won't find any evidence.

Just chill out. Everything will be fine.

You rigged Low's recording.

With a computer, they'll know soon.

And you bought the stocks

with your own account.

There's no other way out. Let's flee.

Floor plan of Commercial Crime Bureau.

What you wanna do?

You said we should stick to our lies.

So how is it, Vin?

How're the chicken feet? Delicious?

Great! I always tell my colleagues...

in the whole police department,

no one is as nice to me as you.

Don't mention it.

I just passed by the restaurant.

Wanna let you try them.

If you like them,

I can buy for you every day.

Are you joking, Max?

Who'd refuse to take the cash he won?

You know I'm a cop.

My bosses won't like it

if I suddenly won a lot of cash.

Can you help me find a way...

so the cash will not pass through me?

What you talking about?

Launder the money, Peter.

Stop this bullshit. I'm a well known broker.

I'd never do anything illegal.

The cinema is empty.

The next show is about to start.

The print was changed. We can go in.

Five hundred thousand!

I said I wouldn't do anything illegal.

One million!

Long queue outside.

Three million.

I'm well known in this field...

Four million.

I won't do it for less than ten million!

Forty percent off!

OK, this discount is for you only.

Forgot your key card?

Sorry Sir.

The film is almost over! Copied?

Bodhisattva, please protect me.

May market makers hold their stocks.

Let us sell first.

Bodhisattva, please protect me.

It's plunged to $1.2 per share.

Allegedly, Low sold a lot of shares.

He apparently wanted to cash in.

Have you found Low?

No information yet.

Keep searching.

I'll get the transmitter at Vin's place.

So much smoke!

Pass me the fire extinguisher!

Start the car!

Can I make a call?

Wait it out a bit before using the cash.

I've been clean for the past 30 years.

Now I only put my hands in the mud and

my whole person smells like sh*t.

I found a transceiver station.

The bug inside Low's lighter...

covers only 200 meters.

The transceiver...

is located inside E&T!

Remember Low suddenly came back...

when we're installing the machines?

Our men in the lobby didn't see

anyone going up.

He had been in the building all along.

The transceiver station is 902.

He put the bug in himself.

He tried to dig up dirt on the "Boss".

All the secrets are at 902.

We need to find it before the "Boss".

Let's check it out upstairs.

The "Boss" Wong referred to is Willie Ma,

chairman of WYC.

He runs underground banks and

illegal betting syndicates.

None of the relevant

departments can touch him.

You know why?

All court witnesses either disappeared

or became amnesiac.

Two of his accounts jumped off a building.

And you still wanna mess with him?

We had the guts to do a wrong thing...

but not the right thing.

So we can go. We're done here.

If you touch him, we're done for good.

The old woman who bought E&T shares

jumped off a building this morning.

If we had reported our findings,

she might have remained alive.

I know.

But I'm having cold feet.

You're a cop. You shouldn't be scared.

Scared of what?

Kelvin and I are having a divorce.

Congrats!

We are in a hurry.

Let's go.

Hey, go home!

Did you see?

Why did you congratulate her?

That's Kelvin's wife!

I asked you why you congratulated her.

I have to tell my wife.

Hello?

Max, You're being followed.

Go to the precinct right away!

Hello?

Max...

Where's your phone?

What's going on?

My phone was tapped.

Don't fight! Give it back to your sis.

Be good.

You must be tired.

Hurry up and come over here.

Thank you.

Thank you very much, thank you.

Good evening ladies and gentleman.

This is a very important

time for co-operation.

In years past, some of our most

influential business leader have said...

that the most important principles

of a partnership, are honesty and integrity.

Let me shift your attention to...

what I believe is the most

important principle to your partnership,

communication.

When communication breaks down,

the connection to your partner will be lost,

and that will endanger your partner...
