The first 200 lines.
The light bulb is out. I'll replace it.
I told myself in jail that after I got out, I wouldn't hang out with those guys again.
I don't care whether you believe me or not, but I won't go down that road again.
Because I'm the mockingbird that you mentioned.
When I saw Tam Mei-ching just now, I felt so bad.
She's tough. I thought she was so stupid to go down that road again.
But actually she just wanted to find Lau Yim.
Back then I failed to help her. That's why she ended up like this.
OK...The manager says you're fired.
That's even better. I don't want to work here anyway.
I took someone's job. I'll return it to her now.
What are your plans now?
Get a decent job.
You've been to jail. It won't be so easy to get a decent job.
I don't believe I can't find a decent job.
OK. Bye everybody.
Hey. Bye.
It's not 5pm yet.
Don't you know him?
He's leaving early.
Funny. Madam.
New case. A model is suspected to have been sedated and raped at The Top Hotel.
You and Ten go with me to investigate.
Yes, madam. Where is he?
He said he had to leave for something.
Darn it. Meet me in the lobby in five minutes.
Yes, madam.
I believe you've heard about Lombroso in your study of criminology.
In particular, I'm sure you've heard of his theory of the "born criminal".
He's To Yee-hang.
Right. Why is he here?
Don't you know? Ms To is his daughter.
Lombroso was an Italian psychiatrist,
criminologist, and founder of positivist criminology.
He's considered the father of criminology. His two students were Ferry and Garofalo.
The three of them are known as The Holy Trinity of Criminology.
Hello. Please show some respect.
I can't talk right now.
Gillian was so natural just now.
It didn't seem like it was her first time giving a lecture.
Maybe it's because you squeezed some time to come and support her.
That's why she was so confident.
Being busy is just an excuse. Everything is about priorities.
I just do what is more important.
Right. You really love Gillian. She's smart. She just came back from abroad.
But she's adjusted so well already.
Mr To, let's chat again later. OK.
Goodbye. Goodbye.
Mr To, just now general manager Poon couldn't talk to you on the phone.
He didn't get your instructions.
So he didn't get the piece of land in Tokwawan at the auction.
Write this. Sufficient but not excessive detail.
Breaking news says
To Yee-hang has failed to acquire the piece of prime real estate in Tokwawan.
But he said he definitely wanted to get it.
It also says he suddenly gave up during the auction. Right.
I get it. Just now To Yee-hang's phone rang.
Oh?
Ms To told him not to talk on the phone.
Could that be the reason why he didn't get the land?
Does he really love his daughter that much?
He gave up prime real estate because of what she said?
I sent you there to make decisions. Otherwise, I would have gone there myself.
Mr To, we've lost at least $2 billion
Forget about the money. The problem is hiring someone who's not qualified.
Tell him to wait for me in my office later.
Yes, Mr To.
Ms To. Bye.
Goodbye, Ms To. Bye.
Bye.
Dad, you're still here?
I want to go to dinner with you.
Great. I'm starving. Let's go.
Mr To, Ms To.
Mr To, Ms To.
Thank you.
Dad, let me introduce a friend to you. Funny.
Gillian. Hello.
Hello.
Dad, Funny is the first policeman friend I met after I came back to Hong Kong.
How do you do?
Hello, Mr To.
Why are you here? Are you working on a case?
A model is suspected of having been sedated and raped in this hotel.
I came here to collect evidence.
My hotel? Have you arrested anyone yet?
We've already arrested the suspect.
Thank you. We may come again to collect evidence.
No problem. We'll do our best to work with the police.
M. To, there's a minor problem in the hotel.
I know. We must help the police.
I'll get back to work.
They're very cooperative.
Mr To, let me introduce. This is Madam Sin.
She's a senior inspector of OCTB Kowloon West.
Hello.
She's Funny's mom. Hello, I'm Gillian.
How did you know that?.
Ten told me.
Why don't you both join us for dinner? Our Chinese cuisine is quite good.
No, thanks. We need to get back to the police station.
I'm embarrassed that something like this happened in my hotel.
As the boss of the hotel, I want to get a clearer picture.
Martin. Yes.
Prepare a room. Tell the chefs to prepare the food.
Yes, Mr To.
Let's chat while we eat. Do you mind, madam?
My dad is very friendly. Why don't we eat together?
Gillian, you entertain madam. I'll join you later.
OK. Madam, this way please.
I've got information for you.
I'm waiting for you at the usual place in Tokwawan.
I'm sorry. I'm busy tonight.
Ms To, officers, this way please.
Madam, I need to answer the phone. Why don't you go in first?
OK.
Hello.
Hello, brother. Where are you? Let's go to dinner.
I can't. I ran into Gillian and her dad. She asked us to eat with them.
Madam Sin can't leave either. Would you like to join us?
Mr To, the food's ready.
Serve the food then. Yes.
The Chiuchow food here is quite good.
Chiuchow food?
Funny and Madam are Chiuchow Chinese.
Mr To, you even know we're Chiuchow. You're more professional than us cops.
I just asked around.
The people you asked must be professionals.
Either they're civil servants or private investigators.
Madam, I just want to understand Gillian's friends better.
I don't mean any harm.
I'm so hungry.
Are you kidding? You just ate.
We ate in a hurry just now. I didn't eat much.
So you're blaming me for that?
No. I thought you had such attitude. You weren't afraid of that tycoon.
You even wanted to go dutch. Wouldn't you call that attitude?
Why would I be afraid of him?
Amazing...You're home? What's the matter?.
Brother, was Gillian the one who asked you to dinner?
Her dad did. Even if she had, so what?
It's not good if she's fallen for you.
Obviously you've fallen for her.
What's the problem?
Of course there's a problem. You two live in different worlds.
Godmother, you're so class conscious.
You both belong to different worlds.
If you two get together, there'll be lots of problems.
What age are we in now? You still care about someone's background?
Funny. Yes?
You saw how To Yee-hang looked at us just now.
I don't think he wants a cop as his son-in-law.
I can change his mind.
Good. Go ahead. I won't compete with you.
You said it yourself. I didn't force you. Don't break your promise.
Fine.
William, Malaysia is your last chance.
Thank you, Mr To. I won't let you down again.
I'll fly to Malaysia tomorrow. Goodbye.
Martin, get the car. Yes, Mr To.
Why are you pouting? You didn't want to wait for me?
You told me to wait for you. How could I not?
You seem unhappy.
You know why. I thought you were open-minded.
So it's not true. You're controlling me. I feel like I have no freedom.
Have I ever stopped you from doing the things you like?
But you don't respect me. Why did you check my friends?
You did that when I was a kid. You're still doing it even though I've grown up.
It's normal for me not to trust him. You just met him.
How much do you know about him?
How do you know he doesn't have an ulterior motive for making friends with you?
Mr To, are you complicating this?
Gillian, you know I'm Mr To. So you should know you are Ms To.
A lot of people will approach you just for benefits.
You're biased. You're so scary. I'm a big girl.
I know how to judge a person. I don't need you to protect me.
I'm your dad. It's my duty to protect you. You have to listen to me.
I won't.
Hello.
Henry, I just finished dinner with my friends.
The driver's taking me home now.
We're on our way home.
Did something happen?
I don't want to talk about it.
Where's Gillian?
She went upstairs as soon as we got home. She does that every time she's unhappy.
Did you have a fight with her just now?
She said I don't give her any freedom.
It's normal that I'd check her friends' backgrounds.
I've been with you for so long. Do I give you freedom?
You've given me a lot of space.
That's right. I wish Gillian thought that way too.
I'm older than her. Take it easy.
I'm taking a bath.
Scarlet, I'm staying in the dorm tonight.
You haven't been home for a couple of nights already.
There's a lot of homework to do.
Or are you mad at your dad?
Don't make me talk about it. I really don't want to do so.
I know you're in a bad mood. Look. Why don't I buy you a French dinner?
