What it’s about. Hoi (Deric Wan) was once a cop, but his hot temper cost him his job. He then joined a security company as the head investigator.

Though Hoi had left the force, he still worked closely with Ching and they solved many tough cases like “Killing with Arrows”, “Vanishing Art Director”, “Corpse in the Sack” and “Homicide in a Sealed Room”. Then, the two friends fell for the charming Sai (Jessica Hester Hsuan) together. Sai chose Ching after she broke up with Hoi.
