Oh, it's you
What do you want?
Give...me some...
Give...me some...
Quick...please...
l'll do anything you want
Give me a packet to get through
l beg you
Kuan Cheng-chun, it's for your own good
Then give it to me...please
Give...me some...
You are no longer a human being
You're worse than a dog
l'm a dog
Please...just give it to me...
You want a good beating, do you?
That ought to do you some good
Just one puff...please
So what about the next time?
l...don't know
You...
Kick the habit
You're still young and can hold it
Kick the habit
Otherwise, you'll be dead
Well, you're as good as dead
Please give me...just one puff
l'm no better...no better than dead!
Give me a pack of herbal tea
Tseng Chien, what's up?
Your turn
Every time you're on a job...
you always return like this
What's the matter?
Every time l see those people
They are so much worse than before
Now they're no better than a dog
What am l supposed to do?
Tseng Chien
Don't forget what we do!
What do l do?
You...
lf someone you knew became...
like this you would feel bad too
You could be a priest
Your turn to deal
What? Still no way out
Give it back...
You kill me, come on
Kuan, look at yourself
Don't you look like a human being?
How will you live without us?
You can bear it
Hang on and you'll make it
l...l can't
Tseng Chien, let me out
l beg you
Help me...Tseng Chien...
Let me out...
Let me out...
Help...help
Help...Tseng Chien...
You made it
l made it
Go back to the gym and teach kung fu
They'll be pleased to welcome you
l don't think you'll be addicted again
Tseng Chien, what sort of a person are you?
l don't know
Don't know...
Not bad today...
Master Kuan, should l strike like this?
And this
Let's practise ourselves...
Master Kuan
lt's time for you to go and teach kung fu...
at the police station
Tseng Chien, what are you doing here?
Nothing
l just came to see you
l'm relieved to see you are well
Tseng Chien, when you first came here
l didn't know you
l only knew your kung fu had a good foundation
Then l got addicted
l knew what kind of people you are
But now it seems l don't know much about you
lt's not only you
Even l don't know who l am
We have been following Tseng Chien...
and in half a month we've found...
he spent a lot of time with Kuan
They appear to be real friends
This Kuan fellow...
heads a kung fu institution...
and teaches our new guys
What about his background?
We looked into it
His record is clean
l heard he had a drug problem, then kicked the habit
A suspect who uses drugs...
and an ex-drug addict being good friends
lsn't this strange?
lndeed it is
lt's just that we know little...
about this Tseng fellow
However...
he might have connections with a secret organisation
Organisation A as referred to in the file
From what l hear, all men in the organisation...
have been trained by the boss since they were kids
They were all orphans
That's why the boss has a lot of power over them...
and the men in turn are absolutely loyal
We have scanty information on the organisation
But this rumour is accurate
Otherwise our undercover man...
wouldn't get any information about them
l think we can trust Kuan
lt's time we talked to Kuan
Please take the lead and contact him
This way
l have to go now
What do we do now?
Coach Kuan
You are...
What's the matter?
Our chief would like to see you
Sorry, l have to leave
Every city has a common point
On the outside it is glamorous
Whereas inside it is corrupt with crimes and evil
Did you call me here...
to lecture me?
No, Mr Kuan. You've used drugs before?
Yes, l kicked the habit already
l know
At least you know what a bad thing...
it is to use drugs
lndeed
But you have befriended someone...
by the name of Tseng, right?
Yes, without him, l couldn't have kicked the habit
l couldn't have done it without him
We suspect he belongs to a...
serious organized drug ring
You can help us
No l can't
He is a drug dealer
He is my friend
lt is incredible he would help you...
go off drugs
But l do believe
He helped you and saved you
Why can't you return the favour?
As long as drug dealers exist, evil is there
You should know, you were once a victim
He is my friend. l don't betray my friends
l am not asking you to
l am just asking you to do what is right
Yes, l should
Chief, please believe me
l hate drug dealers more than anyone else
Chief
What did Kuan say?
Did he give us new information?
No, but we can't force him
The lead he has given...
helped us arrest some people
But they don't even know...
there's such an organisation
Why don't we arrest Tseng?
We tried...
and got two guys with similar identities
They won't say anything
We believe after their release,
they would be heroes of the organisation
l find Kuan has many good points
Go on
His good points...
might interfere with our investigation
But they would be beneficial in the long run
May l be allowed to...
handle this case alone
l will take full responsibility
No problem
Kuan Cheng-chun
lf you continue to tail me like a dog
...l'll beat you up
Don't, l have something to say to you
l have nothing to say to the likes of you
Tseng is in trouble and has asked me to find you
He wants to see you. Please follow me
Tseng Chien
Brother Hsieh, you asked us to bring a girl here
She's the best
Brother Hsieh
Try one
Where is Tseng?
lt's him?
Go up and wait for him
Come
Come on
You should wait for Tseng
Quick, l'm getting the chills
Don't leave
Yuan Li, what is it? He refused you
No, it can't be, please take me...
Oh, you can't do it here
lt's better to do it inside the room
You may ask him
Don't look for trouble
Take me, and do whatever you like
Just give it to me
Give it to me...
Kick it
l can't, l'd rather be dead
l beg you
lf you want me they'll give it to me
l...
l'm getting the chills. Give me quickly
l have the stamina, l'll do as many as you like
Just give it to me
You can't keep that Kuan fellow
So, brother Hsieh is mad. He didn't give us too
Today...
l...don't look good
l'll...make him like me
Climb over
Don't come here, go get the drug dealers
Who should l grab?
Your good friend, Tseng. Huh?
lt's no use even if you broke the sand bag
He made a mistake of having a friend like you
Yes, Tseng is my friend
My very good friend
but what he does is none of my business
And l don't want to know about it
He is a drug dealer
We have adequate proof
Tell me, Cheng-chun
What would you do if the police wants...
to arrest Tseng?
Tell me, it's okay
l'll beat the hell out of you guys...
then tell him to escape
ls it worth doing this?
You may end up in prison
You...don't really mean to arrest Tseng
Tseng is a member of the gang
But he helps you to kick the drug habit
lt seemed he's different from other drug dealers
He must have reasons...
to stay in the gang, we guess
And he must feel terribly bad about it
Kuan Cheng-chun, he has helped you once
You should now help him
lt's late. Still practising kung fu?
Mr. Tang is...
My friend
How are you?
Please consider what l've said just now
Tseng Chien, l need to talk to you
l know what you are going to say
Don't say it, okay?
No, l have to
lt's your turn
Tseng Chien, just answer me
When will you be getting out of all these?
l can't quit
And it'd make no difference to them if l wasn't there
Someone is controlling you...
that's why you can't get out of it
Mind your own business
Be careful not to get into troubles
Troubles?
l have had them...
but it's all been resolved
You've helped me
Tseng Chien, you are in real trouble
You just don't understand at all
l understand, you are afraid
There's no point in avoiding it
Hi, recognize me?
lt's you
lt's me
Don't trouble me
You were a drug addict before
Yes, l've managed to quit
l've heard that someone helped you
How much do you know?
Not much
Okay. Goodbye
''Bally lnn''
How dare you not do what...
brother Hsieh has told you?
ln case you want to seduce him to bed
l don't believe he doesn't want you
Did you forget what Brother Hsieh told you?
No. He told me to ask Kuan to go on drugs again
l can't do it. Since he can kick the drugs...
he's after all a man
l can't make him return to his old bad habit
***
Mister, you...
Kuan Cheng-chun
Thank you
You can be yourself, Miss Yuan
Brother Tseng, Kuan's not listening
Let's try the hard way
l think that...
we have traitors among us here
Don't talk nonsense, let Master decide
Yes
Do you think she can make it?
Don't worry, doctors will take good care of her...
provided that she has the determination
You've seen Tseng
Yes, it's just that l can't force him to do it
Take your time, as long as you are willing
''Loyalty''
Hsieh En
Yes
Master wants all men to get together here...
this midnight to wait for further instructions
Yes
Master said that...
whoever's been followed to this place...
will be regarded as traitor
Yes
Hsieh En, you've to be extremely careful
You've to be here twice a day
Brother Tseng, don't worry
l won't be tailed
Master has chosen you to bring the news
You should know what this will mean
Yes, l'll do whatever
...master asks me to
Good. Go on
Dismiss...
Freeze...
Don't move...
Don't move...
Tseng, you're late
Someone's tailing me, l must get rid of him
You sure you have got rid of him?
How come you're the only one who's been followed?
How am l supposed to know?
l know
lt's because you work for the police
This is their assignment for you
Do you have any evidence to say that?
Come in
Everybody's here?
Yes, Tseng's the last one to arrive
Tonight's gathering is strictly confidential
No one is allowed to let it out nor talk about it
Yes...
As a guarantee, all taking part in this...
will swear an oath by drinking blood
Tseng, this is no fun
Have some respect
Yes
But l've been thinking; if there's a traitor among us
...and we were to drink this blood...
would a disaster really land upon us?
How dare you!
Whoever let out the secret will be like this bowl
l brought up the twelve of you
You've all been working hard for me
l must choose someone tonight to help me do a job
At Master's service
l have to do some killings
Killing is different from doing otherjobs
Master, l am willing to do it
Bring the lots for life and death
Yes
Life
Life
Life
Life
l don't want to kill anyone...
Chase
Stop
Master, l am willing to kill for you
Tseng Chien, you'll be executed according our rules
Let him go
Killing is different from doing otherjobs
lf you're scared, l wouldn't blame you
You've drawn the ''death'' lot, so you must kill
You must kill...
l want to see old master
l...l have something to say
l won't fight with you...
Sir forgives your behaviourjust now
You must finish the job by tomorrow night
lf you refuse to go, you'll die
Then someone will take the job for you
l...
He...
He is the one you want to kill
Of course you know him
But l'll tell you anyway
Kuan is the trainer of a martial arts school
lf you fail, nobody is to blame
lt's all in fate's hands
You should return by this time tomorrow
Are you going?
Please tell old master
l thank him for pardoning my behaviour
l'll go
Master, you think Tseng Chien...
Don't worry, they are all raised up by me
They'll obey me...
and do whatever l tell them
But last night he...
That's because he knows Kuan Cheng-chun
One would of course have some qualms about killing...
someone you know
Right?
Kuan Cheng-chun has told a lot to the police...
and his friendship with Tseng Chien is risky
We must get rid of him
You fear Tseng Chien might rebel
The monkey king can't get out of Buddha's hands
Tseng Chien is precisely like that
Whatever he does,
he is in my control
Stop please
Tseng Chien, you're not someone who pleads
The people at the school said you were there...
and waited a long time for me
l know it must be important
lt is most likely you would come here
Yes
They said you left with that Tang fellow
-Tseng Chien -Cheng-chun
Let me speak first
No. Let me speak first
Okay
There's something l have not told you
...but l must tell you today
l belong to a draconian organisation
As l grew up
l have been a member
Tseng Chien, but you...
Let me finish; as agreed...
we drew lots last night
And the one getting the ''death'' lot has to kill
Tseng Chien, what about you?
Who set the rules...
that you have to kill someone?
***
Tseng Chien, you should be a good person
Think what you said when l was struggling with drugs
You...
l should speak first
l didn't kill anyone
They hit me
l know l can't get out of it
lf l don't do it they'll kill me
You should die rather than do it
l thought of it, but...
When l knew who...
they wanted me to kill
...l agreed
Who do they want to kill?
You
You must be kiddin'
At first you don't want to kill...
but you agreed because l'm the target!!
No...No
lt's really like that
lf l don't agree...
they'll send someone else
You should escape as far as possible
Tseng Chien, wait
This is an entangled situation
Same words. You better escape
l didn't yet tell you what l am trying to say
This is important
Listen to this first. Come
You must do me a favour
Otherwise l can't leave
Master will blame you
Of course, if it's accomplished...
l'll tell Master that it's your merit
Remember, wait for me outside...
Kuan Cheng-chun martial arts school
Yes. lf you've to do it, it must be with great impact
Then...
Kuan Cheng-chun
Stand still...
Thank you
You are welcome
Sir, you were on the spot at that time
You must recognize the murderer
Yes, l do
lf the murderer was not picked up by someone...
he would have been arrested
How's the wounded?
lt should be ''how's the dead?''
He is Kuan Cheng-chun, martial arts school coach
How old was he?
28 !
l've heard that he was a drug addict
Well, after kicking off the drugs...
he assisted the police to solve many cases
Sorry, no comment
Sir...
No comment means admitting
A real amateur
Cheng-chun, it's me
l didn't realize dummy bullets...
could be so real
Yes, but now l am a dead man
What should we do?
There are many things we must do
What do you think will happen to Tseng Chien?
He did a good job for the organization
He'll be okay
But he made it clear
He could not remain as a member of...
the organisation
At the same time he doesn't want to rebel against it
So l fear if he returns
He'll...
lt will depend on himself
Just like when you kicked the drug addiction
You depended on yourself
No one else could help you
l hope he contacts me soon
Put this on
We'll leave here
l've arranged a safe place for you
Hope it's not a jail
l knew you'd do it
You won't let me down
Right?
Yes
You'll do anything for me
You wouldn't dare turn against me
You don't even dare to think about it
Even at the expense of your life
You don't dare to go against me
because you know you can't escape from me
l've been exposed...
so l can't work for you anymore
Says who? You'll do greater things for me
...and bear greater responsibilities
Are you unwilling?
No
From now on
You are my most trusted person...
because you've killed for me
Now a special report
Yesterday in the city
Kuan Cheng-chun, a part-time kung fu coach...
was shot dead and the suspect is on the run
The police is searching everywhere...
for the suspect
lf you have information relating to the case
Please contact the police immediately...
When can l go?
l'll be bored to death here
What about Tseng Chien?
He hasn't contacted me, l suppose he's okay
However...
Can you speak without reservation?
Cheng-chun
l think...
You wouldn't fancy a girl like Yuan Li
Yuan Li? l've only known her for a short while
...but l like her
Regardless of her past
After her release from the drug rehabilitation centre
...she'll be totally different
She has left the drug centre
That soon!
Or rather she escaped!
Maybe it's because she heard of your death
lt's my fault
l didn't think of this
This is our plan...
and we have no reason to tell her
Where are you going?
To find her
You can't. Once you go out...
and are spotted
Our plan will fail
Well, if l don't go she is finished
Kuan Cheng-chun, think of the pros and cons
Think of yourself...
and Tseng Chien, and the police's plans
Officer, maybe you don't realise...
how much determination is required for an addict...
to quit his ways
But it's so easy to return to drugs
Kuan Cheng-chun, wait
You will harm Tseng Chien
l don't want to harm anyone
...but l must find her
Hello
l'm Tseng Chien
Tseng Chien
Where's Cheng-chun?
Do they suspect you?
No, l'm sent to receive...
drugs from abroad
Drugs will arrive tonight...
at the coast
Good, we'll take proper action
Tseng Chien, Kuan Cheng-chun has gone
Gone
Yes, he's gone to look for a woman
lt's Yuan Li. Maybe he has mentioned her to you
lf he is seen we're in big trouble
Yes, l'll be in big trouble
But l believe...
he has no choice
l'll contact you when l have further information
Yuan Li, you're back
Quick, give it to me
We have to go back
Brother Hsieh
Let her have the drug fix first
Then she can see me after getting all dolled up
Yes
Who is it?
A lady
Get two for madam See
You...
l'm looking for Yuan Li
No, l haven't seen her
Who are you?
Has Yuan Li been here?
What Yuan Li? who are you?
Go...
Leave...
Who are you?
Go...
Quickly...
What are you doing?
Have you seen Yuan Li?
l....
What are you doing?
Come, sit down
Kuan brought you to the rehabilitation centre, right?
How come you're addicted once you got out?
l know. lt's because Kuan Cheng-chun is dead
You know who killed Kuan Cheng-chun
Have you read the newspaper?
lf l told you...
where to find Tseng Chien
l'll do whatever you want me to
You've got to be patient for one more night
l can make him come to you tomorrow
You'll listen to me?
l can't find her
Neither can l
She did show up somewhere...
but disappeared after that
lt's the place where...
you fought with those rascals in the evening
Kuan Cheng-chun, that's enough. Come with me
You are hopeless
Do you know how many drug addicts are out there?
For the sake of saving one
You've let the drug peddler get away
Tseng Chien has got information for us
ln a couple of hours...
we'll be able to uncover a large haul of drugs
Tseng Chien has to hurry back
Think about how many people he could save thus;
We can't ruin the whole plan just because of you
Bring me along
No
ltjust isn't me who's responsible for co-ordinating
They'll recognize you
l fought with a few of them today
They didn't recognize me
Let him do it
l'll go look for Yuan Li
What do mean by ''look like'', did you see clearly?
No, it looked as if he painted oil on his face
Kuan Cheng-chun is dead
Don't talk nonsense
Master, he said that guy...
stirred up trouble in six different places today
Beat up a lot of our men
We'd better check it out
You be careful
Ask Tseng Chien to come
Yes
You thought that guy was Kuan Cheng-chun
l think it's a mistake
Don't move
Stand still...
Go...
Stand still...
Go...
Go...
lf we had not run fast enough
...we'd all get caught
Who have you mentioned this to?
Master, no one here would leak out the information
l'm afraid someone from the seller side is unreliable
Tseng Chien, it's been a smooth sailing all along
This is your first assignment, and we've trouble!
What are you implying?
Don't be rash
You are looking for Yuan Li, is that right?
l know where she is
Wait
Who is it?
Miss Yuan, open the door, l am Tseng
You are Tseng Chien
Yes, Miss Yuan. l'll take you to someone
You killed Kuan Cheng-chun
Yuan Li, listen to me
Kuan risked everything to come look for you
lt's worth it
Yuan Li, Kuan Cheng-chun is not dead
Don't ruin yourself
Come on, l'll take you to him
Taxi
Cheng-chun, Yuan Li almost stabbed me to death
Of course l don't blame you
Cheng-chun, when Tang Kuo-Liang comes,
take Ms. Yuan back to the rehabilitation centre first
Secondly, inform him...
that tonight...
a drugs consignment will be taken to the urban area
...in a truck; the drugs will be hidden in a piano
Go...
Stand still....Don't run
Hold it...
Check it
Fail again
Master, l believe that someone from the seller side...
leaked out the information again
lt's been checked very strictly these days
There's something here l want to show you
Lung Tai
Turn on the light. Let him see clearly
Tseng Chien didn't say how he's found Yuan Li
Tseng Chien didn't mention it but Yuan Li told me
Hsieh En said he could make Tseng Chien go to her
What happened?
Damn. Get in the car quickly
Hsieh En & Tseng Chien are deadly foes
He asked Tseng Chien to go to Yuan Li
He wanted to make use of Yuan Li to kill him
but Yuan Li didn't succeed
Hsieh En must be following Tseng Chien...
to see whether Yuan Li has succeeded
When he saw Tseng Chien leaving with Yuan Li...
he would have followed them to your hiding place
Might have seen me too
l'm really worried about Tseng Chien
Wait here, l'll call the police
Hurry back, l'm afraid it'll be too late
l know
Just watch from the outside, don't take any risk
That's strange, the one whom you killed...
rose from the dead
Tseng Chien, you dare to make a move!
So what?
Waiting for death
Then what am l to be afraid of?
Unexpectedly, there's one among you...
who has dared to betray me
See what will happen to a traitor
Prepare the punishment
Yes
Let me die
l will
But in the meantime, l'll break your hands and legs
...and let you die slowly
Kuan Cheng-chun
Fear not, Tseng Chien. Tang has called the police
Chase
Master, he's not here
Let's go, bring him with us
Yes
Go...
Master, Kuan Cheng-chun is following from behind
He wants to die!
Kuan Cheng-chun is behind
Come, let's kill him
You traitor, l'll have you die slowly
Kuan Cheng-chun
Go...
Go on...
Get on the car
Get in the car
Tseng Chien, you can't escape from me
Tseng Chien
Remember, l want it myself
You've saved me
This is the only way l can go
Hurry
Call the ambulance
Yes...
Before he died...
he said, that was the only way he could go
l am sure he was more peaceful...
at the time of his death...
than at any other time in his whole life
Don'tjust sit here
We've got a lot of things to do
