The killer killed the deceased out of feud or some other reasons
Then he staged the scene to make the police think it's an ordinary robbery homicide case
He could get away then
The pointed part of the mahogany peg isn't sharp at all
Its hardness is medium only
Therefore the mahogany peg isn't the murder weapon
Are you crazy? Go to hell
I didn't kill Moon
Does this sun ray look a bit similar to the oblong shape of the murder weapon?
I remember there's this logo on the wall of the showroom
There's blood on the 4th one
Double-sided adhesive tapes will get the killer's fingerprints on it
We suspect Tsang Lai-sim is involved in the murder of Sis Moon
We want to arrest her
Madam?
West Kowloon Regional Crime Unit
Madam Tsang Lai-sim, we suspect you murdered Tsui Yan-yuet
You're under arrest
No. I just need 3 more hours Then I can survive this. I can stay alive
I must stay alive to look after Tsung He needs me
Who's Tsung?
My son. Madam, please don't arrest me My son can't survive without me
I must look after him. Please set me free
Yes, Madam
Oh no, the 7-star lamp can't go off I'm doomed now. What shall I do?
How about Tsung?
Madam, there's no one in the room
How come? He's inside. Tsung...Tsung Where's my son?
Do you really get a son?
She does. Here are kids' clothes and toys
I locked him up. How come he's disappeared?
Why did you lock your son up?
I have to set the 7-star formation for 3 days and 3 nights
I told him so already. I prepared water and bread for him. What happened?
How can you really lock up your son for 3 days and 3 nights?
What else can I do then? I told you I must stay alive to look after my son
He must be hungry after finishing all the food
So he got on a stool and climbed up the cabinet
Then he went out through the window
He can't go out. He's only 6 years old
He may fall into epileptic seizure any time
Hello, madam. We are police officers Have you seen a 6-year old kid around?
He's about this tall
Yes. I saw him about an hour ago He's standing there staring at my biscuits
I asked him if he wanted to buy them He didn't answer me. He looked pale
It appeared that he's hungry So I gave him a pack of biscuits
Where's the kid now?
He walked over there after taking the biscuits
Thank you very much Thank you
Let's split up Wait
This may belong to Tsung
Let's go in OK
Tsung Tsung
Madam
Tsung Tsung
He's stiff. He had a seizure
I'll call an ambulance right away
Madam, we've found out that Tsang Lai-sim's son is called Wong Ka-tsung
He's born in China. He came to Hong Kong on a 2-way permit
He's overstayed here for a year
He's even sick. No wonder Tsang Lai-sim wanted to lock him up
Doctor, how's Tsung?
He suffers from epilepsy
Usually there will be a seizure for around 2 minutes when it attacks
But he will come around gradually after getting some rest
But this time Tsung tripped He didn't come around at all
This will easily cause asphyxiation He could die of brain anoxia easily
It's lucky that you guys took him to the hospital in time
Now his condition is under control He's fine right now
Thank you very much, doctor
Madam Madam, how's my son?
Sit down. Tsung's fine. He's survived But he must stay in the hospital
Don't worry. We've already informed the Social Welfare Department
They will assign someone to look after him
As to his overstay in Hong Kong
the Immigration Department will follow up the case
They will decide what to do after his condition has become stable
Thank God Tsung's fine I bet the 7-star formation works
Thank you very much
You are still so superstitious?
You didn't look after Tsung for 3 days and 3 nights because of your superstition
That's why this has happened to him
No. I'd be fine too if I got 3 more hours
You keep saying that you'd be fine if you got 3 more hours
What actually would happen to you?
She would hurt me. She would kill me
Who would do so to you?.
Sis Moon. This is karma. I killed her So she would come back to kill me
At first my 7-star death faking charade could solve this problem
It's the fault of you guys
If you break the law you will be punished accordingly
Setting a formation can't help you
Why did you kill Sis Moon?
I didn't want to kill her either But she's way too much
Shortly after I came to Hong Kong my husband died in an industrial accident
My aunt looked after Tsung for me in China But last year she got a stroke
I got no choice but to take Tsung to Hong Kong on a 2-way permit
He just stayed at home
But somehow Sis Moon found out that my son had overstayed
She knew I couldn't lose my job So she bossed me around
I had to do personal chores for her too
I had to buy the food, cook the meals and clean the house for her
I must do everything she told me to do
But for the sake of Tsung, I put up with her no matter how tough it was
Why did you kill her then?
That day I went home after work
Before I could open the door I received her call
She told me to recturn to the office right away. You know how far away I live
I have to make several transfers before I can get to the office
Damn it. He doesn't answer my calls I'll go to the party
If I see you and the cheap girl together you're a dead man
Sis Moon
Where have you been? Why are you so late?
I did my best to hurry here What's so urgent?
Just now I couldn't find the vampire teeth I've found them now
I don't need you anymore. You can leave
You asked me to come in so urgently so as to look for the vampire teeth?.
Are you mad? Just suck it up or quit
You should've called me when you found them I did hurry back. My son hasn't eaten yet
He hasn't even taken his medicine
So what? Is he going to die?
Your son gets such a disease It's better for him to die
How can you say something so mean?
Get lost
Pick it up. You want to yell at me?
If I hadn't hired you you wouldn't have got any food
Your son wouldn't have got medicine You would've got nothing at all
Who are you? A country bumpkin
No one will hire you even as a cleaning lady
I dare you to quit your job Wear a low cut shirt and a mini skirt
Then stand on the street See if anyone will patronize you
Perhaps some dirty old men would give you $20
Listen carefully. If you want to stay here you'd better shut up
Otherwise I'll fire you Then I'll inform the Immigration
They will send your son back to China He will become a beggar there
No one cares if he dies on the street getting an epileptic fit
I dare you
I killed her out of rage She dressed like a vampire
She looked so terrible when she died
I was so afraid she would become a vampire and come back to take revenge against me
I remember Katy said before that a mahogany peg could suppress a vampire
So I pulled that piece of wood out and put the mahogany peg there
Then you cleaned up the scene, right?
There's a lot of blood on the floor I cleaned it with bleach
I was afraid they would get suspicious when they saw there's one sun ray less
So I cleaned the piece of wood and put it back there
with double-sided adhesive tape
I even took away the money in the mini safe in Sis Moon's drawer
to make it look like a robbery case
I thought I could get away then
So long as you've broken the law you will be caught for sure
There's poetic justice
I don't mind if God wants to punish me But He must look after my son
I've promised my husband to raise him and to keep him healthy
But I can't do that now I can never do that again
This is out of print
This book is really good There's the autograph of Stephen King
Rosie, when did your desk become a magazine stand?
What? These are Angel's treasures She's giving them to us
Angel's treasures?
Take whatever you like There are lots of nice stuff
Why is she giving them out?
She said they are heavy She doesn't want to take them to the USA
What does it mean?
When she's off yesterday, she tendered her formal resignation to Pro Sir
I saw it. She chatted with Pro Sir in his office for a while
Then Pro Sir stood up and shook hands with her
Usually there are only 2 situations
where a boss would shake hands with his subordinates
First, it's when the subordinate reports to duty
Welcome on board
The second situation is when the subordinate leaves
Thank you for your contribution to the company in all these years
See? Just these 2 situations
We've taken so many things from Angel We should throw her a grand farewell party
Absolutely
After deducting the leave days she could leave by the end of the month
OK. I'll arrange a party
Do you know where she is?
She took half a day off to get the air ticket
She would come in after lunch
Why don't we talk about how to organize the farewell party during lunch, OK?
Great
What should we eat? How about pizza?
I want Western food I want oysters
You can eat oysters over there Right
How about Chinese food, OK?
Chinese food then
What's the matter? You've bought breakfast for Angel again?
She's not coming in this morning Why don't you eat it, Brother Po?
She won't be leaving so soon What's the matter?
Now she's submitted her resignation You begin to worry?
You know she keeps changing her mind So I thought she would change
You are the one who won't change You just buy her breakfast
If you like her, you must work harder
Let's talk outside Hey, hey, hey
Brother Po, how do you know I like her?
Other people may not notice that But I'm observant
I can tell you like Angel
Brother Po, you are really observant
So you must understand how painful I am right now. I don't want Angel to leave
But I don't know how to tell her Can I still salvage this?
Will it be too late now, Brother Po?
You must tell her no matter how late it is Take me for example
I failed to court Fa-fa back then I regret it for my whole life
Given my experience before I could give you some advice
Really? Yes
Come on. Sit down. What shall I do?
Actually it's really simple First you ask her to come out
Then you open your heart Show her your heart
That's it?
Come on. You order iced lemon tea only You think you would order wine?
Right. Well, I want iced lemon tea You like Long Island
Why don't you order it?
Whatever. I want Long Island please
Thank you Thank you
Thank you...What's the matter? Why did you ask me to come out?
Why didn't you ask Pro Sir and the others to come as well?
This isn't a group training There's no need for so many people
Right
Actually I asked you to come out because there's something I want to tell you
Yes? I...
Wow, my hands are dirty. I don't know what's on them. I'll wash them first
Ask her to come out. Then open up yourself Show her your heart
That's it? That's it
It's easy for you to say so But I can't say it to her
Of course. You need some props
Props? Alcohol
I can't. You know I can't drink I kiss people after drinking
You don't really need to drink Just pretend that you're doing so
This will give you Dutch courage Just tell her everything in your heart
She would think you are telling her the truth as you're drunk
She will fall for you then
But if she says no, you can pretend that you don't remember anything
as you are drunk
This will save the embarrassment
You like Long Island Why don't you order it?
I want Long Island please
Why did you drink mine?
Yes. I've drunk your Long Island
I need to drink some wine before I get the courage to talk to you
You want to borrow money from me?
No. I want to say...I've fallen for you You said before you didn't get a boyfriend
So you wouldn't miss anything even though you have to return to the USA
Now you've got one. I'll be your boyfriend You will miss me
Please don't return to the USA
You...
Do you remember Hilbert Chin? He's Wind's uncle
You tried to get intel from him the other day. He got you drunk
He tried to molest you
Every time when I think about that I feel so hurt
Angel, when I felt hurt that time I knew I was doomed
No, I don't mean doomed I knew I really liked you so much
Did you really take my drink?
People tell the truth after drinking Angel, I'm true to you
Wouldn't you kiss people after drinking?
Oh yes...Sorry I can't control myself after drinking
That wasn't wine What?
At first I ordered Long Island
But just now when I went to the bathroom I told the waiter to change it to oolong tea
Oh no...I'm sorry. Although I didn't say so after drinking, I meant everything I said
I was wrong to treat you as my brother before. I called you a tomboy
I said no guy would fall for you
But when I found out how you felt about me I fell for you then
You just didn't realize that
What do you mean you fell for me?
It's on that night when I felt hurt
I drank a lot that night Did I tell you something?
You told me how you felt about me
Did I say I liked you?
Correction. Now I like you, OK?
No. It's not OK OK
No OK
Not OK
So I still want to kiss you even though I haven't drunk any wine
Later I'll tell them everything This is what a man should do
You ask Pro Sir to give you back your resignation letter, OK?
OK, OK
Guys, good morning Morning
Good morning Morning
Pro Sir What's the matter?
I want to talk to you
Oh, I nearly forgot to tell you this
Yes?
I've already sent your resignation letter to HR
They've already got your recommendation letter ready
So efficient?
Angel, you still get a lot of leave not taken yet
If you want to take them, you don't need to come in starting from next week
Pro Sir Yes?
Actually I want to talk to you
Angel, you don't need to miss us so much after you've left
Do your job well as a CSI over there
Right. If I tell my friends I get a CSI friend, I'll get face
You must work hard
We've reserved a place for your farewell party
I've booked the most popular Dining Club in town through the friend of my friend
You will enjoy yourself so much there You can recturn to the USA with a nice memory
I'm sorry, guys. I won't recturn to the USA I don't want to quit
Pro Sir, will this be too late now?
But the procedure has started rolling
No
To stop the process is a bit of a chore But it can still be arranged
I told my younger brother that there's a vacancy here
I even told him to prepare a CV
Why don't you tell your younger brother to study for a few more years first
But I've already paid the deposit for Dining Club. It's $2,000 cash
Just $2,000, right? I'll pay for that No problem
Ken, what does this matter to you? It's Angel's problem only
Right. Why are you so concerned?
Right. What does that matter to you?
What does that matter to you?
Anyway, Angel's problem is my problem
Why? Why?
It's because...I'm her boyfriend
We knew that long ago
It's a prank?
You two were so high profile
You went to the cafe next door for breakfast hand in hand
They fed me the lines Pro Sir, do you mean?
That means there's no problem if you want to stay
I still get your resignation letter with me
But Ken, my younger brother really needs a job
Don't worry My friend is a headhunter
I'll ask him to get your younger brother a great job Thank you
Then we'll change the farewell party to a celebration as you two are an item now
Let's have a crazy night, OK?
Of course. Don't waste that $2,000
But now the nature of the party has changed Shouldn't you pay the bill?
No problem
Thank you, Brother Ken Yeah
What a coincidence?
Hey, what a coincidence, Eva?
Are you alone? Yes
Sit down OK
You start reading Think Great I now?
Yes. I was busy earlier I ordered it long ago
But I didn't get the time to come get it till now
At first I wanted to order book I I as well But they said it's out of stock
Hey, how come you could get book I l?
It's really hard to get it I've almost searched every online bookstore
Recently I found it in an Australian e-shop
You do get perseverance
I couldn't help it. I liked it I had to get it. This is my character
I must get what I want Nothing can stop me
Are you writing the column The Truth Behind? Yes
Ada reads it everyday She said it's really well written
The cases are fascinating
I've been writing this for a week
The chief editor said the response was very good
You won't run your own chambers again?
I will. It's a matter of time only
I'm new to column-writing
But I easily met the challenge I've worked as a barrister for so many years
It shouldn't be difficult to set up my chambers again
Besides, I've got a solid foundation
There won't be any problem starting all over again
It's good to get confidence
But not everything will be under your control as you wish
You start reading Book I now I'm almost done with Book II
Although we like the same things I'm always one step ahead of you
The table is meant for two To accommodate a third person
It makes all 3 uncomfortable The latecomer should get up and leave
It's also possible that one of the persons sitting there will leave with the latecomer
Hello, chief editor. Yes. OK I'll go see him
Couple killed in resort bungalow
Bodies found on the following day
The man got a fatal injury at his head
The woman got multiple stabs Her face was disfigured
Sick killer arrested
Couple killed in resort bungalow in Yuen Long can rest in peace
Tam Shing-yung
Hello, Mr Tam
Hello, Counsel Miss Chow Thank you for coming to see me
I like your column very much
The analysis of the cases is so detailed and professional
But I didn't expect you are so young You're really smart
Thank you for your compliment My editor received your letter
You said you wanted to see me I've perused your case 30 years ago
What can I do for you?
I want you to report my case Tell people the truth
I've checked the record You just admitted that you killed the man
You denied killing the woman Do you still say so after 30 years?
I will still say so even after 100 years This is because it's true
You want a reduced sentence?
I was not a good guy. I was good at nothing I just robbed people and beat them up
I was a bully. I made no contribution to society at all
I deserve the life imprisonment
What actually do you want?
I want you to tell everyone that
the person who killed that woman could be a sick killer
How's that so?
We wanted money only
We wouldn't kill anyone unless it's absolutely necessary
I tried to take that guy's gold watch He resisted. Therefore I killed him
To kill someone you just need to hit him once
But that woman got 2 big crosses on her face. She got stabbed many times
The killer must be sick Please believe me, Counsel Miss Chow
Why should I believe you?
I'm a dying person. I won't lie
You're dying?
I want you to find out the truth before I die
We can't allow the killer to go scot-free
It's been 30 years already Maybe he's an old man now
Perhaps other people got killed by him in these 30 years
Justice hasn't been served for them yet This is so unfair to them
Besides, that couple left behind a daughter
It is unfair to her if the culprit isn't found
I still remember the little girl was 5 years old only back then
Her name is Chung Hok-sum
What are you reading? You can't even smell the coffee?
Thank you You still need to work?
No. I'm reading Eva's The Truth Behind online
She's talking about a case that happened 10 years ago
where the husband cooked his wife
It's really sensational
Really? I won't interrupt you then
Don't you like Sherlock Holmes?
How come you aren't interested in Eva's column?
Stories of Sherlock Holmes are different
But for real cases, the victims' family members are still alive
If you mention the cases again To make them relive the miserable events
Their hearts will be broken once again This isn't good for them
But the cases happened so long ago
When something has happened it has happened
The unhappy and sad feelings will forever be there
Got it...Who's coming so late?
I'll answer the door
Hi Eva?
Hi, Eva. Why do you come so late?
I'm sorry. It's really late Mandy, I need to talk to you
Please come in
What's the matter, Eva?
I'm sorry for being so impatient Anyway, I won't waste further time
Today I went to visit a prisoner in jail His name is Tam Shing-yung
He's the murderer who killed your parents 30 years ago So?
I want to get more info from you I hope you will provide me with that
You want to write about this case in your column?
Yes. But to be exact, Tam Shing-yung wants me to do so for him
Why did he approach you 30 years later? Why did he ask you to help him?
Forget whose idea it is I'm sorry, Eva. I can't help you
Eva, although this happened so long ago
Mandy still gets hurt if you want her to think about what happened back then
Why don't you get the info somewhere else
I've handled many cases before
I understand very well the feelings of the victims and their family members
But it's really different this time, Mandy There could be a case within a case
You mean back then the police arrested the wrong guy
and the court was wrong in convicting him?
Tam Shing-yung told me personally that he killed your dad only
He's got nothing to do with your mom's death
I remember hearing such reports too But I don't believe it
He told you so as he wanted to get a reduced sentence only, right?
It's confirmed that Tam Shing-yung suffers from terminal liver cancer
He's dying. After I had talked to him I checked his records in the prison
He got compliments from the warden He's corrected himself
He doesn't get the motive or the need to lie about this
Besides, if he really wants to make an excuse
he could say he didn't kill your parents at all
But he admitted killing your dad but not your mom. He still insists on it now
He thinks the killer is still out there He's still a very dangerous person
I know forensic officers forensic pathologists
and law enforcement officers adhere to the same principle
Let the deceased rest in peace Let the survivors have peace of mind
Mandy, I hope we can find out the truth together
What did Tam Shing-yung say then?
Back then he's a hardened criminal
He usually burgled people's homes in the middle of the night
On the night the incident happened 30 years ago
he went to this resort bungalow at No.4 Tai Tin Ngau Road
He pried open a window at the kitchen and climbed in
Die
Tam Shing-yung left his fingerprints
on the murder weapon that subsequently killed your dad
There's also his bloody shoe print on the floor
Therefore the police zeroed on him very soon and arrested him
Tam Shing-yung kept saying that he killed your dad only
But given the forensic techniques 30 years ago
it couldn't be proved that he didn't kill your mom
At last he's sentenced to life imprisonment
He had no choice but to resign to it Now he's dying
He wants to find out the truth
Mandy, are you OK? Your hand is so cold
I'm fine
I'm sorry Mandy for telling you this all of a sudden
According to the report back then you were found unconscious in the cabinet
Perhaps you saw the killer before you passed out
Why don't you try to recall?
No, I can't recall I don't remember anything
Try again, Mandy. We must find the killer
I really can't. I can't recall I got a severe headache
Forget it. Don't force yourself
I really can't remember
Sum, throw me the ball. Good job Get ready. Catch it
Give it to Mommy
Here. Good girl. Ready?
Daddy, Mommy, Daddy, Mommy...
It's you? Are you OK?
I got a nightmare just now I came to get a drink. But...
How are you?
I heard a bang again. How come?
Let me help you to your room You will feel better lying down. Come on
R.I.P. Chung Chi-bong of Xinhui, Guangdong
R.I.P. Fung Hiu-ching of Shunde, Guangdong
I thought the case was closed No one would mention it again
I can't believe 30 years later
someone says the killer could be another person
I just knew Mandy lost her parents over night
But I didn't know the details Pok-sze, can you tell me what happened?
My son and my daughter-in-law loved Mandy very much
Whenever they got the time, they would take her to different places for fun
It so happened they got holidays that time
So they took her to Yuen Long for a couple of days
But the resort bungalow owner found that they hadn't checked out the next morning
So he went there to take a look
When he got there, he found my son and my daughter-in- law dead already
Thank God he found Mandy lying unconscious inside a cabinet in the sitting room
She's only 5 years old. It's really pathetic
Mandy didn't say anything afterwards The doctor said she suffered from P...
PTSD That's right
Those who suffer from this would try to evade
They would even refuse to recall what happened back then
They would get phobia and hallucination Mandy gets tinnitus and headache
She even hears a bang This could be the symptoms
The doctors said so too
They said her subconscious mind would build up a self-defense mechanism
She would hide all the unhappy memories deeper and deeper
This may not be something bad for her
That freak disfigured the face of my daughter-in-law after killing her
He's really sick. He'll hurt other people if he goes scot-free
Pro Sir, here's the newspaper info you want
Thank you, Brother Po
This murder case was quite sensational back then
It's widely reported on the newspapers I've perused the info
That woman died terribly She was stabbed 10 times
Someone drew 2 crosses on her face They wanted money only
Did they need to do that?
The forensic pathologist in charge of this case was Dr Wong who's already retired
I've perused his autopsy report The male deceased person was stabbed once
He was hit by a hard object on his head and it killed him
It's fast and clear in comparison with how the female deceased person died
The conclusion in the report says the killer probably hated women very much
Thank God the killer didn't know the little girl was hiding
She's really pathetic She was 5 years old only back then
She went on the trip happily In the end she lost her parents
That little girl was Mandy
Mandy?
I want coffee. How about you?
Hot lemon tea please Thank you
You seldom drank hot stuff before
Cold stuff isn't good for health Last time I was mistaken as someone else
You risked your life to save me I owe you my life
If I don't take good care of myself that means I don't appreciate your favor
How can I do that? Well, why do you want to see me?
You want to follow the murder case of Mandy's parents back then?
It wasn't an ordinary robbery homicide case
I've perused the relevant information too
It's very likely that there's a case within a case
What's your view on this? I'm listening
My view is...This case should end here
You know my character very well Once I've started, I won't quit
It's true that Mandy would feel unhappy talking about this past event
But she needs to know the truth
There are many ways in finding out who the killer is
But it's absolutely inappropriate for you to take up the job
The killer could be someone else He could even be a sick killer
Maybe he's somewhere around us He would read your column
This may arouse him You will be in great danger. I'm not kidding
I know. I smile because I feel happy
Thank you
I know you still care about me
I will give the same advice to anyone It's really dangerous
Don't worry. I've ordeal brush with death I will take care
For the sake of you and Man I won't allow anything bad to happen to me
Great. It's done So soon? No more?
No more. You worked with me, Daddy That's why I could finish it so quickly
OK. You're so nice. You'll be rewarded You can go online
I don't want to go online. I want to paint I must prepare for the competition tomorrow
There's a competition tomorrow? Then you must relax. You need more rest
The classmates have great expectation on me
The international painting competition for children this year
is held in Hong Kong
I am representing my school
The teacher said it's very likely that I would win
Mommy thinks I would win too She's asked me how I want to celebrate it
So many people are positive about you I know they want you to win
But so many people will take part in the competition
There are only 3 prizes
In other words those who fail to get a prize will feel very disappointed
I don't want that to happen. Is it possible that no one feels disappointed?
That's the rule of the game
So long as you have done your best in the competition
you've already won no matter you get a prize or not
It's because you've beaten yourself
I will put my best foot forward so as to beat myself
So long as you can beat yourself you don't need to mind other things so much
You must remember this
The greater the expectation the greater the disappointment
I understand that
I wonder if your mommy understands that too
If she doesn't I can tell her what you told me
The greater the expectation the greater the disappointment. Right?
Do you have time for a drink?
I'm sorry. I'm busy. I won't come out
Mina Tai Long homepage
The developer's land acquisition in Yuen Long stalled
Development in Tai Tin Ngau Village Yuen Long
One household refuses to sell the land despite the huge sum offered
The bodies were found in No.4 Tai Tin Ngau Road, Yuen Long
Hello. This is Eva Chow I want to speak to the chief editor
Hello, Eva. This is Chi The chief editor has taken leave
I'm in charge of your column for the time being
What can I do for you?
I've read the news about the purchase of land in Yuen Long's Tai Tin Ngau Village
They said that a household refused to take the compensation
I think they must have lived there for a long time
They get sentimental value for the place So they wouldn't leave
Perhaps they would remember what happened 30 years ago
I want to go there so as to check it out See if I can get more info
Then I'll amend the draft
Mommy, Mommy
Mommy
Hello
When did you discover the body this morning?
This morning I came down from the top
of the hill. It's about 6:10 am
Did you see anyone suspicious?

Wind, how's the situation?
This morning around 6 am a hiker passed by and found a female body
The killer could be someone else He could even be a sick killer
Perhaps he's around us This will only arouse him
