That year, on her birthday
I showed her a glass bottle
The bottle was filled with lucky stars of every color
She looked at that bottle of stars
and, just like you all,
was giddy with delight
How many are in here?
All together, nine hundred and ninety-nine
That's all?
Well, if you want more
just keep those smiles coming
Now in our home,
we have forty eight bottles
48,964 lucky stars
My luck has only ever gotten better
if you keep making them, won't you run out of room?
That is a question of land
which can only be solved with money
And that's why I'm here
selling you all books!
Just kidding
Actually, so long as you have love
any problem can be fixed
Why didn't you pick the kid up on the way?
There's an eval form on the table for the head of household
Bring it back to the school once you've filled it out
You're not going?
I just went down to help you list the flat
You want me going out again?
Which agencies?
Centreland, of course
We only have the one key
And you couldn't have more made?
I'd have two more blocks to walk
A sole agent is good, too
Fewer random people out to kill time
Hey, this is the mother's assessment
You've always been the one to fill those out
You're the writer
Come to think of it,
ever since we signed the marriage certificate
I have yet to see a pen in your hand
Do you even still know how to write?
I can type. That's good enough
Hey!
Honey
Two blocks really is far
We're out of condoms
Again?
Really!
Be a good boy and buy some
and while you're out, pick up the kid
Okay? Go on
Go go go!
Hey!
Please?
Love you!
Of course, I don't have 48 bottles of lucky stars at home
Because my wife simply isn't
the perfect woman from the novel
She's actually a lazy cunt!
Were you a good little boy today?
Ming was very well behaved
Is that so?
Okay, let's say goodbye to the teacher
Bye!
Hello?
Hi, Mr. Xu? It's Jason from Centreland
I have a client who wants to rent your flat upstairs!
Already?
Of course! I'm taking special care of your account
So take them up to see it
She's a good client
A single woman. What do you think?
That so?
Hong Kong's South Harbour, with mountains and the sea
I'd love to live in such a location
Here, let's have a look at the view
Such a spacious place, for forty-eight thousand,
basically can't be found in this district
Mr. Xu!
Let me introduce Miss Chan
Miss Chan, This is Mr. Xu
You can see he's a good-looking,
handsome gent, generous, and a Leo!
Hard to find landlords like him in this area
That's enough. Thanks so much
I'll take care of this ASAP, then ring you back.
Would this be disrespectful?
Nonsense
How do I know she didn't leave a couple of bombs in here?
That's enough to warrant a peek
Victoria's secrets sure are big
Hi, Mr. Xu? It's Jason
Miss Chan from earlier said she really likes your place
but she only has a budget of thirty thousand
Thirty thousand?
She knows it's too much of a stretch
And says if it's not okay, then never mind
Hang on a second
Hi, Mr. Xu?
I seem to have left a bag at your place
but don't you dare open it
Mr. Xu?
Tell her no free months
if she's okay with that, get her signed. Bye
Honey!
What?
Look at this
Thirty thousand for rent at the Royal Cullinan?
It's haunted
ls ours rented out yet?
At the going rate. I'm off for a swim
Mr. Xu, what a coincidence
Hey, you're bleeding
Is it bad?
Let me see
Say cheese
Are you okay?
I'm fine
You don't need to work today?
I do insurance
so my time's pretty free
You're Japanese?
My daddy's from Hong Kong
Mom is Japanese
I only came here when I was twelve
I heard from the agent that you're an author
Yeah
I'll give you one of my books next time
My Chinese is terrible
I prefer watching movies
What kind do you like?
Lust, Caution; 9½ Weeks;
and Fifty Shades of Grey
I really like those
Wow, all good ones
Maybe when there's a chance,
we could discuss them together
I'm off
Chat next time
Did you heat up some water?
Fresh off the boil
Pour me some
"Your savings account number 382-345987-883
has received a transfer of $15,000"
Mr. Xu, what's up?
I checked my account
and it seems the numbers are a bit off
Really?
When you get a chance come up and get the rest
I have cash
Oh, alright
Also,
I think I dropped a stocking down to your place
Could you bring it by later while you're at it?
Honey! I'm going down to the gym for a workout
Mr. Xu
Elaine
Come in and have a seat
Okay
Have a drink
Thanks
Mr. Xu,
about this place
I want to share it with someone
You're the tenant
Whom you want to live with
isn't really up to me
You know how it is
insurance work isn't so stable
it's certainly better to share it with someone!
That's true
But what if I want to share it with you?
Then you could stay over any time you wanted
You can see I'm no child
if you weren't interested in me
you wouldn't have cut my rent by eighteen thousand
You are quite direct
If you're okay with it
then please help me put on the other stocking
Why is this one shorter?
It soaked in hot water and shrank
But it's coming off anyway, right?
Do you have a condom?
No need. I'm on the pill
Why didn't I hear you come back?
I thought you were asleep
Honey, I'm off for a workout!
Hey,
have you looked up Doong?
No, why?
He's being charged with rape!
He says she changed her story after the fact
Why didn't he call me?
You'd take his case?
I'd find him someone to beat the bitch up!
Dude, you're an attorney!
So, you have to use the most effective method
Let's drop the topic. It's depressing.
I went to Taiwan recently
Let's hear it
You guys ever gone dancing
surrounded by eight hotties?
I have. For real!
Then what?
Well, I couldn't handle all eight even if I wanted
and it's not economically advantageous
So I picked one,
the very ugliest one
Which means she didn't have any customers
Which means she had to be clean!
But Taiwanese girls are known to be easy to catch, hard to shake
Aren't you worried she'll tail you to Hong Kong?
(Mandarin-ish) No worries!
She's a part-timer
Her husband was off on business
With no one to busy her at home,
she goes out to get busy
I threw in an extra two grand
and she even lent me his car
Pretty good cost-benefit ratio, eh?
That is lower than low
Pretty serious business
As if you wouldn't?
Sorry! I shouldn't be bringing this stuff up
You're an idiot
Jay has a wife
Having a wife isn't the problem
It's that his wife has problems
Even now, we still remember what happened
Five years ago
Hey, why did you come so late?
Come on and catch up with the rest of us!
Who are you?
- Mrs. Xu, don't! - Don't get worked up!
You scared off all my customers!
You've ruined my establishment! Ruined it!
If I call the cops,
your wife will go to jail for life!
Would you like a receipt, Mr. Xu?
No need, thanks
Go get some tea for the lady! Standing there like an idiot
Alright
Look, it's really our fault
But I really want to know,
how did you find this place?
I checked his messages
You said you booked a room
for hotpot at Kai Kee, right?
Then you replied with a sly smiley
So let me ask
if you're having hotpot, then why the hell do you need a sly smiley?
There are only four nightclubs in Hong Kong using "Kai"
New Kai Lee, Chiu Kai Yan,
New Chiu Kai, and Kam Fan Kai
I flushed you out by the second one!
If there's ever a next time,
it will be over your son's dead body and mine
If I had a Sherlock like her at home,
I'd just take up some other interests and be done with
Like meditation. Or prayer
As for part-timers and Taiwanese girls,
don't even think about it
Sherlock is on the way
Get on out of here
Then I'm leaving
So, leave
Like that?
Yeah
Could I not pay rent this month?
None at all?
If not, then fine
You're stingy for a billionaire,
You really do take me for Gray
(Japanese) 'Yamete'!
What's that for? 'Yamete'?
You crying stop because of rent?
You crazy?
Or you want me to rape you, huh?
That hurts! Can't I scream in pain?
Goddammit
I, Elaine Chan,
do not object to Jay Xu, at Royal Cullinan 1
Building 6, Apartment 28A, doing whatever he pleases to me
Each month, I will pay fifteen thousand in rent
Satisfied?
A notice of non-objection?
What,
it's not like I'm pressuring you for rent
Pay when you can
No 'Yamete'
I'd rather 'kimochii'
Kiki, close the shades, will you?
Your wife's name is Kiki?
Oh shit!
You just get back?
Got drunk last night
Couldn't sleep on the couch
So I went down to get some breakfast
Go wash up and come eat
Okay
Honey, I'm off to the gym!
Honey! I'll go with you
You're coming with me?
Yeah
To the gym?
Starting now, I'm going along every day
Great
Mr. Xu?
I have a classmate who's one of your fans
Could you sign the cover of your book for her?
Sure
What,
are you trying to get her?
I've got a date with her tonight!
You must be excited
I'm OK with it
Could you also draw something on the cover?
I only know how to write
I can't draw
It doesn't matter
She'll like any old crap you'd make
Okay
Thank you
This cactus
embodies the love you two have
No matter how vile the conditions may be,
may it grow healthy and strong
Go for it. You can do it
"Surely you have time to take out the garbage"
Time to clean up
I'll give you half a minute
Someone might see us
Time's up. Bye-bye!
Could you not be so random?
A flick of a sleeve
and she's gone without taking half a drop
Yes, I know I'm ridiculous
A wife and a mistress, both no more than ten steps away,
yet here I am in a stairwell,
dealing with it myself
I asked for raw beef and they give me cooked
Fried chicken, and the skin is mush
No comparison to Seoul
You're a fool
if you want to compare that with what's in Seoul
Hey honey, the Seoul Marriott is running a promotion
Just over a thousand a night
What's the deadline?
Let's see
Ten tonight, but departing tomorrow
Too rushed
Since we don't have jobs to go to,
of course we should be doing off season trips
It's cheaper and more convenient
Better check if auntie would be okay taking care of Ming
Of course she would!
Nevermind, I'll book it first
All set!
Hey, what's up?
Let's do this, Jay
1 , 2...
No way. You're only telling me now?
3, 4...5, 6, 7...
I booked tickets and a hotel
for Seoul tomorrow with my wife
I don't care, you deal with it, end of story
What's up?
Nothing
Just ignore it
It's okay!
Hi,
Hi Kiki, it's Jim
The big guy says he booked a trip with you,
but a client just opened up a venue
for him to do another reading
And you know doing more of those
means more sales, right?
Well, alright
I'll tell him to get back to you
It's fine. Work is more important
What about the package?
Would you be upset
if I went by myself?
No way,
too dangerous!
Have Jenny go with you
I'll call
and ask her
Hello, Jenny?
You free tomorrow?
Let's go to Korea
Eat something, baby
"A friendly reminder: during the coming week,"
"I will be very free,"
"but you will be very busy"
"I'll think it over"
"If we're going to be meeting so often,"
"could you add a little extra for living expenses?"
What damned living expenses?
In Hong Kong, housing
is already the biggest living expense!
"How about ten to thirty thousand a month?"
"I have a ton of expenses. Ten thousand a month, OK?"
You're mommy's who, baby?
Mommy's little darling
You're mommy's who?
Mommy's little darling!
I love you so much!
Bye, honey
Okay, you go play with daddy.
Take my hand. Bye-bye mommy. Bye bye!
Ming, when the door opens, say hi to 'big brother'!
Big brother
You are rather clever!
You're a cutie, Ming
Why are you so cute?
You're pretty cute yourself
Hey, don't.
Not in front of Ming
I want to get changed
Clever boy!
You know, if you don't want to come out with me,
I won't mind
No. It's just that we're lying in bed together
This is a public venue, so it's not quite right
Your wife always looks so bitchy
What do you see in her?
Actually, back in middle school, she was pretty hot
And yet you cheat on her?
But it's because now I found my true love
True love?
You're better off truly making love
Your Chinese has really improved
I want to put a hammock up at home, too
But where you're renting,
if you want to drill any holes,
you have to ask the landlord
Mister landlord,
can I drill some holes upstairs?
As far as drilling holes goes...
Wow, honey.
You brought all of Seoul back with you
But they were all really good deals
See what happens if I use a bigger suitcase
You have a point
"The warden is back, but I want to watch a movie tonight, OK?"
"OK! 30k per private showing, OK?"
"Full House"
Hey, stop
I said we're out of condoms
Again?
Did you buy any?
You go to Korea and buy all this,
but you won't buy condoms
You're out of your mind!
Going to Korea just to buy condoms?
It's not important
And if I get pregnant you'll carry it?
Great. I'm off to the gym
This time, I actually hit the gym
because I was pissed!
Thirty grand for one session?
Am I some kind of chump?
But denying this chump's bottom line
makes him so completely empty,
so totally lonesome...
Hello?
Hey, Jay
Get any inspiration? The book fair is coming fast
You're insane. What's that got to do with me?
Am I Alpha Go?
Then how about the title,
so I can promote it first, huh?
Don't have one. Bye
You don't sound like that when you want me sweet-talking your wife,
you ass!
Electromagnetic launches rely on electromagnetic force...
...foreign media say
the nuclear-powered USS Gerald Ford
has a method for aircraft to reach flight velocity
or near-flight velocity instantaneously
Simply put, electricity creates the magnetic force...
...Using steam-powered catapults,
Mr. Xu, what a coincidence
Honey, you've got something on you
Bye!
My stomach hurts
Go pick up our son
and then get me some medicine
Okay
Okay. Call me when you're back upstairs
Okay
Bye-bye, teacher
Bye-bye!
Excuse me! Mr. Xu?
Where's my son?
Ming's auntie already picked him up
Which auntie?
Ming's,
but he called her big brother
Are you joking?
You guys hand my son to just anybody?
But Ming hugged her really warmly
He'd hug Mickey Mouse if he came!
Could Mickey Mouse pick my son up?
But she had a pick-up authorization letter
Even with a letter, you could still get a good look at her,
couldn't you?
Where did they go?
I don't recall
How about I ask the headmaster if we should call the police?
Forget it!
Ridiculous
Elaine!
What are you doing picking him up from school?
Because I missed him
I haven't had much income lately
Could you loan me fifty thousand?
Thirty to sleep with you,
fifty to not
Have you lost your damned mind?
Why are you so angry?
I'm just asking to borrow money
Just what is it you're dealing with?
When you're always coming around,
how do I have time to earn money?
Are you letting me sleep around?
Go have your fill, if you want
Ming!
Hello, Mr. Xu
Well, can I?
Hey...Can I?
Fine
Once again, I thank you all for attending the discussion
Thank you!
You've all just heard from Mr. Jay Xu
I trust you have a lot of questions for him
about relations between the sexes, right?
So what say we ask him some questions
How about it? This young lady in the front can go first
Thank you
I'd like to ask,
if your wife were to start a fight for no reason,
what would you do?
Each person's home
is a place of last retreat
It's where you talk of love,
not reason
Since there is no talk of reason,
when why start a fight for no reason?
Are there any other questions?
I have one
The one young lady with her back turned
If you love your wife so much,
do you think you'd sneak some on the side?
Actually, I love doing that the most
Especially when she cooks,
As I watch, I sneak some on the side
I'm asking if you would cheat on her with other women
I'd once heard about
a married couple in the process of getting divorced
Then one day,
the wife was in an accident
She lost her memory
When she woke,
she thought she still deeply loved her husband
Now, say I walked out this door and a sign
dropped on my head and I lost my mind,
that could also happen, right?
Are there any other questions?
How about the young lady in the back?
I also want to know if you might have an affair!
I dare not say that I wouldn't
I can only say I wouldn't dare
You're all satisfied, right?
Since you've waited so long,
how about we go straight to the autograph and photo segment,
okay?
Thank you
- Here's a new friend. Your name is - Yan
Yan, okay
Excuse me, sorry!
I haven't bought your books
I want to take a photo with you
Better wire me that money later
Thank you
- Hello, and you are... - Charlie
Charlie
"Your savings account number 382-345987-883 has transferred $50,000"
"to UOB (HONG KONG) Limited with account number 382-716XXX-883"
Honey
What?
What's that about?
I'll go down to management to have it checked out
The security guard was on patrol
I had to wait a while before seeing him
if there's no more noise, then forget it
Hey, big-shot author
She's busting out on you
Even posted the goods on your page
She sure has the goods
if I have you on video,
you can bet I want more than thirty thousand
Bottom line, ten million
Are you blackmailing me?
Putting it nicely, a transaction
Not nicely, it's blackmail
Not saying I don't have it,
but if I did, I wouldn't give it to you, right?
Stop pretending
All together, your twelve properties
are at least a hundred million
I walk down one floor
and you're out half of that
Ten million is a bargain
That's enough to pay someone to off you ten times over,
you got that?
If I die out of the blue,
someone will post it online automatically
I'm a movie nut
Surely you know that storyline
I'm a very reasonable person
Getting ten million just like that
is a little difficult
Make it five days
Wow that is one pricey bag of pork rinds
Honestly,
do you even have ten mil?
Even if I did, I wouldn't just pay up, right?
Two choices,
Either acid or have her whacked
Or use acid to whack her
Didn't you say two choices?
I just thought up the third
Like I said, if the jap girl dies,
someone uploads the video,
don't you get it?
Who's she kidding?
She tries to scare you, so scare her back
It's simple. Find some guys to keep her in the house
Beat her up first, then rape her
After raping, beat her up again
Rape again, beat again
Repeat a few times and see if she still wants to play
You are a lawyer!
Just saying. ls just talking about it a crime?
That's why I never pick up women
Getting hookers is the best bet, am I right?
Right now, you can only expose it yourself
That won't look so bad
But remember to first get a recording of her for proof,
as evidence that she was blackmailing you
Worst case, you both go down
And after that,
his wife will take half,
right?
But this time is really something
Upstairs and down? Sherlock didn't figure it out?
She must have
- She just hasn't said anything - You're crazy
His wife is insane. If she knew,
wouldn't she go up there and chop up that Jap witch?
That is true
Thinking this through,
really having her whacked may not be impossible
Let's say,
you tell her the money is all set
Exchange the money for the goods
Once she's handed over all the copies, kill her on the spot.
Hey, you're a lawyer!
Killing is never hard
The hard part is getting away with it
Right,
so how do you get away with it?
If you can't find the body!
Have you watched Breaking Bad?
Sulfuric acid can dissolve a body
But you need to get a plastic barrel
big enough to put a body in
But with a barrel that big,
it's hard to move around without getting noticed
Cut her up. But if you do, blood will get everywhere,
splatter everywhere
So then what?
Buy a body bag,
put the body in, then cut
Then it's neat and tidy
It sounds like you've actually done this before
I haven't, but I will try it on my wife
Missing the body doesn't mean you can't be found guilty
Just like the case last time
Also a murdered mistress!
Hey, then the one with the dismembered prostitute!
They got the guy on that one, too!
The killer in the hooker case
came out and admitted it
You wouldn't!
The mistress one had security footage
of the killer going to the crime scene
What advantages do you have?
Upstairs, downstairs, and the stairwell
Any security cameras there?
Have you had enough fun?
Then just go pull out the ten million
How's that?
Let's crack a 30 year-old vintage. He's got 10 mil in cash
Mommy doesn't want you!
You like 'big brother' that much?
And you said I was your darling!
I don't want you! Go!
Mrs. Xu, you have to be patient with children
Get lost! What's it to you how I raise my son?
Honey, what are you doing?
Your wife's temper is really bad today
She's been stuck at home taking care of him lately
It's a lot of pressure
It'll be fine
Then I'll be on my way
Thank you
It'll be fine
What are you suddenly installing a camera?
I figure even if we're out,
we can keep an eye on the house
You worried I'll abuse your son?
Ridiculous
When I'm thinking of you two, then I can see you
I don't like it
What is it, Mr. Chan?
Mr. Xu? The ten million you requested
has been prepared
Come to our branch any time to pick it up
Fine. Thank you
Now, we're only having one
No more crying to daddy,
understand?
"Tomorrow night at 9. See you at the theatre!"
Let's go
Hey, why isn't the coroner's van here yet?
It's on its way
Judging by the damage to the body,
she must've fallen from between floors 25 and 30
Likely from either of these two units
See who lives up there
Yes, sir! On it!
Hey! Get some grub first, detective
I'm really scared
I want to get away from here
Go back to Canada for now, okay?
I really want to get out of here!
Go to your mother's
and lay low, alright?
I'll take care of it, okay?
Okay
Everything will be fine
The pathologist opened up the body
Cause of death, fall from elevation,
without a doubt
Turns out Jay Xu was her landlord
and lived right below her
Jay who?
You don't know who Jay Xu is?
Are you serious?
Never even heard of him
Naturally. You never even went to school
Of course you don't know him
What was that? Does schooling make you the boss?
Write up your report
Thanks, Mr. Xu
Our guys will have a look around
Take it easy
Were you close with the deceased?
Same as any normal landlord-tenant relationship
Inspector Lee
Thanks so much, Mr. Xu
We'll be taking the phone with us
No problem
Have the examiner send over a detailed autopsy report
Tell him I'll be right over to have a look at the body
Check her phone records,
computer, friends and family
And check her bank account
Yes, sir!
Hey!
Stop playing around on that Facebook stuff
Get to work
Mr. Xu. Please come back with us for a chat
Mr. Xu,
did you know Elaine Chan before renting the flat to her?
No
I rented it to her through an agent
Your unit's going rate should be forty to fifty grand
Why rent it to her so cheap?
Good tenants are hard to find, inspector
And you knew she'd be a good tenant?
I saw her tax return
She looked like a proper lady
Her income was okay,
so I rented it to her
After renting it out,
did you have any particular contact with her?
Nothing special
Just the typical landlord-tenant sort
Really?
L, Elaine Chan, do not object to Jay
doing whatever he pleases to me
at Royal Cullinan 1 , Building 6, Apartment 28A
Any recollection of this?
It was found in her apartment
Nothing to say? Let him see it
Do you still maintain
that you had no particular relationship with Elaine Chan?
After renting my place,
she quickly became my mistress,
so I cut her rent
Don't you deeply love your wife?
When I was in college,
I liked you
I even hoped to find a husband who was like you
Scumbag
You're a liar!
Get out of here! Go!
Sorry about that
Careful
Let me get the chair for you
A little hard to take,
for one of your dedicated fans, I hope you don't mind
What was your involvement in Elaine Chan's death?
Our relationship was about money and sex
Until one day,
she wanted me to get a divorce
The day before she died,
I even told her really harshly,
We're only sex partners
You think she killed herself out of love?
She said she'd kill herself
Or you just want us to think she killed herself for love
We found copper patina
under Elaine Chan's right hand nails,
identical to the railing of the balcony you rented her
If you're going to jump, you jump
Why clutch at the railing?
But personally I tend to believe
that she was pushed over
and that's when she scratched the railing
Meaning she was murdered
Where were you when it happened?
10 million. I won't say anything to your wife
and I'll move out immediately
You call that blackmail?
You could blab whenever you wanted
Fine. Ahh! Don't!
Jay, don't!
Hey, shut up!
Shut up!
She kept asking me for money
She started it with the blackmail!
She looked like a proper lady
I saw her taxes
Her income was okay,
so I rented it to her
Pause it
None of you see anything wrong?
What's the problem?
He's clearly licking his lips
and rubbing his fingers
Those are two subtle motions for self-comfort
People usually do this
when uneasy or telling a lie
Continue
Stop!
When people lie, blood rushes to the head
The nose dilates a fraction of a millimeter
So you will touch it unexpectedly
Sir,
he already admitted to lying
So why are we still going over this?
I want to confirm
that each of his lies follows a pattern
She tried to blackmail me first!
What's wrong with that?
When he's talking here, the pitch goes up.
A higher tone is used
when hiding internal anxiety
So I believe that even here,
he is still lying
Really? I don't notice anything
I do. It's clearly higher-pitched
Just because he said something half a note higher?
You don't think this whole thing is too easy?
This is murder
if it was you,
would you admit guilt so easily?
He knows he's trapped
and confessed to get a lighter sentence
And if he didn't confess,
would we have enough on him to put him away?
Elaine Chan paid reduced rent
That "non-objection" slip
And the CCTV footage
All prove they were involved
The forensics report
shows that she was pushed over
But we're far from proving
it was Jay who pushed her
I think he's hiding something
There's dirt on him. I exposed his lies
and he admits to it. What's so wrong with that?
Have you read his books?
They're just for fooling young girls
He didn't use to write that kind of stuff
His first two were murder mysteries
As an electrical-engineering graduate
his early frictional works were science-filled
It was after switching to writing about relationships
that he became popular
So how does an author of murder mysteries
not know about something
called 'remaining silent'?
Officer, I need to go
Stand over there
I really need to pee, officer!
How much can you possibly pee?
Why do you want to confess?
I killed her
So I admit it
You look like a mess
Feeling guilty about the murder?
Worried about serving life?
Or is it from taking diuretic pills?
You used to take them when you did bodybuilding
You drop a few pounds right away
Same as you have right now
Inspector, I have nothing to say
Leak to the press that he admits
Elaine Chan was his mistress
and that he pushed her over
See how the internet reacts
Yes, sir!
Should we have PR call reporters
and bring him along to re-enact the crime?
Inspector So
Ming threw a tantrum today
I tossed him out the door
Then my husband said to go see Dr. Miu
I wanted to say that even if I was crazy,
he made me that way
Thirty thousand for rent at the Cullinan?
Is that even possible?
Haunted? Why did he have to lie?
Who did he rent it to?
Nothing but a prostitute!
Want to mess with my husband?
Don't count on it!
Miu Jee-Kan
We're looking for Doctor Miu
Oh, the doctor is quite busy today
Perhaps you both could take a seat while you wait
Sure, thanks
You can sit over here
Thanks
Ah, Miss Chan, we're about to order some food
What would you like? I'll put it in for you
I'm on a diet
You just get back?
Couldn't sleep on the couch,
so I went down to get some breakfast
Go wash up and come eat
Okay
I know that my husband
is already involved with that witch!
I won't let her get away with this!
I have a classmate who's one of your fans
Could you sign the cover of your book for her?
Sure
Keeping an eye on him all day is no solution
I have to drive that bitch out!
Hello, Jenny?
You free tomorrow?
Let's go to Korea
I've decided to hide a camera
Mess with my husband again
and I'll post the video online
Then we'll see how you get your next meal ticket!
Bye-bye Mommy!
Right this way
Doctor Miu said he prescribed some medication
Come around here to pick it up
Excuse us, Doctor Miu
I'm superintendent Wai-Hung Soh,
from the South Harbor precinct
There's some information about your patient, Kiki Tang,
that I want to ask you about
Superintendent,
barging onto private property
is already a gross violation
And then you want me to provide patient information?
Do you know that information is private?
Do you think I'd give it to you?
We're not just wandering in
When the police act,
they come prepared
You likely haven't told your wife
you hired a nurse with such a fine figure, right?
Nicely done
Kiki Tang. She came to see me a few years ago
She was depressed,
would frequently busy her mind over pointless things
The friends she had told me
she lied all the time
Patients like these typically don't think they have a problem
I prescribed some medication anyway
Whether she took it I really can't say,
however I have not seen her again since
Would you like some coffee?
Do you have any whisky?
Superintendent?
How did you know he doctor was sleeping with the nurse?
Because she really has quite a rack on her
And yet she does no work
The one who's actually working has to be polite to her
And she's not sleeping with her boss?
Sir!
Yes?
I found this robe in Jay Xu's apartment
Nails from the deceased had fibers from this robe
Could it be his wife went crazy,
killed the mistress,
then Jay felt so guilty, he took the fall for her?
How much guilt is needed for that to happen?
I found the first officer on the scene that night
He told me that, just as he arrived,
he saw Jay returning in a cab
immigration said
he'd returned from Macau at 2:30 am
He wasn't at the scene
Have you located his wife?
Working on it
Keep the change
Did you push Elaine Chan off the building?
Of course not!
Then why did you move out once she died?
Someone in the building died
I was too scared, so I moved out
Why lie to Jay and say you'd go to Canada?
When Elaine Chan died, she was wearing this shirt
We tested it
and found your skin tissue on it
Additionally, we found threads on her nails,
threads belonging to this robe
This is yours, isn't it?
We found this diary in your house
This is yours, is it not?
I've never kept a diary
This diary is not mine
You wrote this, right?
The handwriting is exactly the same
It was Jay who pushed this person off
It really has nothing to do with me
I know nothing about it
He set me up
Mrs. Xu,
don't get so worked up
Actually, your husband already confessed
that he was the one who pushed her over
Well, there you go
So charge him
Why bring me here?
Sir, it's been nearly forty-eight hours
If we don't charge him, we'll have to let him go
Jay Xu confesses,
but has proof he wasn't there
All the evidence goes against Kiki,
but she absolutely swears Jay is the killer
So who do we charge?
Or do we charge neither one?
I told the cops everything
Confessed to it all
I don't know why they still let me go
I have to change his fecal bag
Would you like to step outside first?
It's okay. I want to keep him company
Hold on, we'll be done soon
Stay strong, dad
Please keep an eye on my dad
I need to step out for a moment
Your father's condition isn't very promising
I think you'd better be prepared
The fees here aren't cheap
Can you handle them?
That's not an issue
You have to stay strong
Okay?
Lucky thing you ran into an old classmate like me,
when you most needed help
Honey, is the milk ready, yet?
Coming
He fell asleep?
Oh, god
Not even sex is this tiring
No, wait
It would be better if we hired a Filipina nanny
Won't happen
You promised me
there'd be no other females in this house
Not even female dogs
But we're doomed if we don't get help
Who told you to have such a bad record?
Pretend I didn't say anything
I'll behave
That's a good boy
Wake up!
It's time to pick Ming up from my aunt's
Hurry up
I called a car. It'll be here in fifteen minutes
Call the boss
Hey, boss,
Sorry. We lost them.
The plate number is KU2362
You have issues with your husband,
It's your choice to make threat against him.
Don't drag me into this.
Alright, already. Get out of here
Now what do you want, my dear?
You murdered someone and wanted to pin it on me?
I already confessed to everything
Then why did the cops let you go?
Because you set me up as a psycho!
If you hadn't found that Japanese girl to lure me in,
I wouldn't have done it
From the start,
it was you who had her rent my flat
Right?
Right
Get him in bed. I want video
I am going to break him
and show his hypocrisy to the world.
What if he doesn't fall for it?
Pull your tits out and he will
Well, that's true
You hate me that much?
What did I ever do that was so wrong?
How could I not hate you?
Every time I see your work,
it makes me want to vomit!
How can anyone be such a hypocrite?
No one told you to read them
If it's about me, of course I'll read it!
For every smile,
I would fold a star
to remind me of my luck'?
So where are my lucky stars,
asshole!
Once we got married,
was I so lucky?
Would you be with me
if I didn't have tens of millions to inherit?
That time she played a video upstairs
loud enough to wake the dead
With the way you are, you didn't know what was going on?
Acting like you didn't know meant something was up
So you're breaking our deal
How could I have known your husband was so rich?
Do you know how many times he's fucked me?
I give you the tape and only get two hundred grand?
I'll give you back two hundred grand
and get some black guys to come fuck you
How about that?
Then how much more do you want?
Shit, how much could you give?
Your husband's properties
don't even have your name on them
That's all
Bye-bye
Big brother
Shut up!
Big brother?
Mommy doesn't want you!
And you said I was your darling!
Mommy doesn't want you! Go!
What are you doing?
I loved you once!
But you treated me worse and worse!
I supported your fat, lazy ass!
Treated you worse and worse?!
That gives you every right?!
As a wife,
have you ever cooked a single meal for your husband?
Ever taken care of the head of the household?
Ever looked after our son?!
I never knew how to do those things!
So why did you like me back then?
Never knew' gives you every damn right?!
Yes, signing your name on the marriage certificate
puts you in the circle of winners,
laying there like a corpse watching your shows
Fine. I put up with you
But you had to get someone to set me up?
If you weren't such a skirt-chaser,
you wouldn't have fallen for it
Looking at your face,
it's real damn hard not to chase other women
Excuses. Try dodging this!
Police!
What's the matter?
Where is Jay Xu!
Inspector, the realtor said he took him to an old hideout
I'll send you the GPS coordinates
Sign it
What's this, a will?
The sooner I sign this, the sooner I'm dead
You signing the damn thing or not!
Are you screwing with me? That's a signature?
Listen to me. Let me go
I'll tell the cops
that I did all of it
Why should I trust you?
Because prison is better than dying!
If I die and you go to prison,
who's going to take care of our son?
I'll confess to manslaughter
I'll get the best attorney
Counting time off, before too long,
we can all start from scratch
Honey, let's start over again,
okay?
How did we get like this?
I'm sorry
It was me treating you worse and worse
Honey, give me a chance
to change
Okay?
Alright
What if you change your story?
I won't!
We're a family!
I don't want us to hurt each other
Don't you get it?
You're being like that again?
I'm not trusting anything else you say!
You set me up
Help!
Honey, why did you tie me up?
Honey,
let me go!
Where are you going?
You won't have a body left to find!
Stop!
Dak, break this gate open!
Roger!
Hahn, follow me!
Mr. Xu!
Sir, help!
Cut it! Cut the chain off!
Try to stay calm, Mr. Xu!
Cut me free! Why are you stopping?
Hahn!
Don't move, bitch!
Lee,
Hand this to the Department of Justice,
Superintendent, I still feel like something's off
All the the evidence pointing to Kiki
was found in her home
She did the crime
What's so wrong with finding the evidence in her house?
Kiki is too simple
Killing someone and getting away with it
isn't actually so easy
What are you suddenly installing a camera?
I figure even if we're out,
we can keep an eye on the house
Everything will be okay
Almost done
I have to check the video
Okay!
Killing is never hard
The hard part is getting away with it
I know my husband's
already involved with that witch!
I can't let him go on with this!
The fake diary was to lead the cops to her doctor,
so they'd know she had a record of mood disorders.
You're sure all the copies are here?
Like I said, ten million is enough for me
And the copy you gave to your friend?
Nobody would keep it for me
I was just bluffing
Damn it
You've got your money
I just have one last request
You're always playing dress-up
What I really want most
is for you to play as my wife
Happy now?
The nuclear-powered USS Gerald Ford
has a method for aircraft to reach flight velocity
or near-flight velocity instantaneously
Simply put, electricity creates the magnetic force...
...Using steam-powered catapults,
"Macau Ferry Terminal - Sheung Wan"
What advantages do you have?
Upstairs, downstairs, and the stairwell
Any security cameras there?
Hey! Knocking doors late at night?
Get some grub first, detective
I intentionally told Kiki
I killed someone
to scare her into wanting to move.
I killed someone!
Taking diuretics
and doing some other things
was so the cops would feel smart.
Since I had proof I wasn't at the scene,
they'd be forced to let me off,
which meant they were sure to tail me.
Knowing that I'd framed her,
Kiki would go crazy.
Once that happened,
the trap was sprung.
To everyone else,
Jay Xu was ever the loving husband, father, and writer.
Meanwhile,
Kiki was eventually sent to a mental institute
I once read this saying
that I find so intelligent
The cruelest lies
are often told in silence
After all,
I, too, am an intelligent writer
