Synopsis: Lau (Andy Lau) is a fast-rising enforcer with the triads, but beneath his “bad” exterior is the sworn brother of Cheung (Cheung Kwok Keung), a police officer just returned from Scotland Yard. The two men are on opposite sides of the law, but both share a bond that cannot be tarnished, either by years or differing ideologies. Can the brotherhood of these two righteous men set things right in the underworld?
