The captain is red in the face, really letting it fly. Yau sits in a cheap plastic chair, taking it like he always does. CAPTAINYou moron! I can’t believe this… oh, wait, I CAN, because you’ve been DOING THIS for YEARS!! You let Heung get himself shot, then went about causing hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of damage- in a HOSPITAL, mind you- and you let the suspect GET AWAY! You’re worthless! You better get out there and clean this case up, Yau, or I’m going to bust you down so far that becoming a traffic cop would be a promotion! IT’LL BE WHAT YOU HAVE TO LOOK FORWARD TO! ‘Wow, I sure hope I watch my ass for the next eight years, so maybe I can get promoted to traffic cop!” THAT’LL BE YOUR #%$&ING LIFE AMBITION! Now GET OUT OF MY FACE!!!” Yau walks from the room. He’s taken it like this before, but the captain always gets on his nerves. Blow up a few buildings and suddenly you’re a “dangerous character” or something. Ridiculous! He approaches the others, who’ve been sitting in the precinct’s uncomfortable office chairs.CHEF TSOSo… what now?CHEN YAUWhat do you mean, what now? I go out and try to track down Sancho Murietta, and anyone else who may be a link to the crime.CHEF TSOOoh, ooh, we’re all going, right?CHEN YAUAre you crazy? NO you’re not coming. You’re citizens. (he gestures to Damon) Hell, he’s a known criminal, sitting right here in the precinct!Damon smiles smugly. He knows that the police don’t have enough on him to give him a parking ticket.CHEF TSOWell, I don’t care what you say. I’m coming. That man damaged hospital property, while endangering the lives of the patients within.CHEN YAUDidn’t you yourself damage hospital property, while endangering the lives of the patients within?CHEF TSO(hangs his head, embarrassed) We’re a bad hospital.CHAI TONGI’m coming with you. That man shot me. He and I will have words about respect and etiquette.DAMONSancho’s a baaad, bad man. He and I have a score to settle that goes way back.The group look to Cuddly Jack and Carl. CARLI’m just here for the fun.CUDDLY JACKYeah, what this blighter said! Count me in!CHEN YAUUgh. Fine. Whatever. CHAI TONGSo… where are we going now? Are we to be deputized?CHEN(pauses) Heung said he found a briefcase, containing evidence enough to put Tang away for good. He said he ditched it in a building before escaping into the river. He silences and thinks. His eye traipses across a headline on a newspaper on someone’s desk. He walks over and picks it up. It reads BREAK-IN AT MUSEUM OF SCIENCE HAS YET TO YIELD SUSPECTS. The picture underneath shows a wide shot of the Hong Kong Museum of Science. A hole is in the large main window, on the fifth floor. The entire museum is seated on two immense support structures, positioned over the river… which flows underneath. CHENIt’s in the Hong Kong Museum of Science.CARLHuh? How do you know?CHAI TONGI want to be deputized! I want to wear a badge!Chen smiles. Why not? He picks up a badge from the desk and tosses it to Chai Tong. As it turns in slow motion, the light glints off its letters: CAPTAIN.CHENLet’s go.</blockquote>
