We played and did everything together.

Get to the point.

One day...

...she told me in tears...

...that she was afraid she'd be like...

...her grandma and mom

who killed for love.

Turned out her father

had an affair shortly after her birth.

Her mother was so angry...

...that she murdered him.

And preserved his body in salt.

She was raised by her grandma.

When she was in elementary school,

her grandma became some guy's mistress.

The guy was a creep. He refused to

divorce his wife and dumped grandma.

Infuriated, grandma murdered the guy.

She even deep-fried his body.

You were shocked by the story...

...and distanced yourself from Minnie?

It's only natural.

I avoided her.

But she came and waited for me.

Right where you're standing.

She waited for the whole night.

I was absolutely horrified.

I hid myself behind the window.

On thinking back...

...she must have been heart-broken.

But I was really scared.

I dared not come down.

I never did.

After standing there for 5 nights...

...on June 20...

...she disappeared.

She's just a little girl.

Where could she go?

She's been missing for over a decade.

The truth can be very harsh.

You sure wanna find out?

Yes. I want to look for her.

No problem.

Half a million dolllars.

- The plastic bag.

- Here you are.

Where's the toilet?

Sh*t, this place is huge.

- What are you doing?

- I wanna pee...

- I'm taking a bath!

- Where's the toilet?

- I'm taking a bath!

- Toilet! Where is it?

There's a toilet in your room.

- Tell me where it is.

- Over there.

- Which direction?

- Your 9 o'clock

Relax.

I'm blind. I can't see a thing.

I'm not blind, though.

Don't look.

Why am I here?

You were drunk last night.

I brought you here.

Thank you.

Are you totally blind?

Yes. Pitch black.

You can't see a thing?

3,000 square feet?

3,600.

On what street?

Durham Road.

Kowloon Tong... low density housing.

Costs more than $20K per sq. ft.

Worth $70M?

- Are you on the take?

- What'd you mean?

I inherited the money from my parents.

I'm now the only member in the family.

It'll be my dowry.

You'll help find Minnie for me, won't you?

Yes...

...but it'll be costly.

$1M

- I thought you said half a mil.

- Are you kidding? No way.

I'm God of detectives.

- Any problem?

- No.

Apply for your leave.

- Why would I do that?

- You can learn from me.

I'll teach you a few masterstrokes.

Free of charge.

- Thank you, thank you.

- My pleasure.

Listen to this case.

Homicide case.

17-Apr-92

Wednesday night.

Kowloon public morgue.

Police!

You'll be Uncle Kao. I'll be Tak.

- Yell at me.

- How?

Brainless! Moron!

Use your imagination.

Brainless! Moron!
