Cold War Page #5

She has two votes in hand.

Morning, Mr Lee.

Any breaking news I should follow up?

Take a look at the headlines.

If there's no problem,

I'll send you the Chinese and English versions.

Article 8B isn't right.

Operation Cold War is still going on.

I don't want to announce the emergency status to the public.

I don't get it.

I said it clear enough.

Do you need me to repeat it?

You just asked me to censor the news.

Lee, I don't think this is in the Commissioner's authority.

Wrong. I know the Police Ordinance better than you.

I absolutely have this authority.

I've served two commissioners before.

Neither of them ever made

such a request for our department.

That's because they didn't know how to.

Listen to my order now.

Without my approval,

don't release articles 8 to 10 to the public.

Understand?

The operation is still going on.

I agree to coordinate with you.

But on the state of emergency,

I can't keep it confidential for you,

because every Hongkong citizen has the right to know

about the safety of where they live.

If you don't withdraw your request,

I won't go.

Which is more important?

The public's right to know of the safety of police officers?

News and safety are separate things.

If you want me to ignore established procedures and

follow your order,

this is rule by an individual, not rule by law, sir

Phoenix, are you implying that

I'm abusing my duty?

I don't mean that.

Do you know I can suspend your duty immediately?

I know.

The Commissioner and Acting Commissioner have such an authority.

What are you here for?

I want to discuss something with you.

Call all detectives with inspector rank or above to come over.

Have them bring their pistols. All of them.

What's it about?

Lee.

I think it's too much.

That's why you call up so many constables to surpress me?

I don't mean that.

"I don't mean that"?

You two match each other.

I heard you used to date.

No wonder you spoke the same way.

Lee.

The EU van belongs to New Territories South.

Their head should take charge.

This is headquarters.

You and I have our duties.

Normally, the Deputy Commissioners

and even the Acting Commissioner shouldn't be directly involved.

In other words, you also think

I'm abusing my power?

I understand how you feel

but I worry that your emotions affected your judgement.

I'm asking you. Yes or no?

Yes.

Lee. The case is serious.

But objectively speaking, your reaction is over the top.

Sean Lau. You should know that

I don't need any reason

to suspend you from duty immediately.

I know.

But I have that power too.

With what you just said,

plus these few constables,

it's enough for me to charge you with insulting your supervisor.
