Present at the assassination attempt of Taiwan's president, righteous cops Yuchang (Joseph Chang) and Sun (Simon Yam) spearhead an urgent investigation into the attempted killing. However, the likely assassin, mob hitman Jinshui (Gordon Lam), is curiously removed from suspicion when their superior officers instead pick inept loser Ertong (Liu Kai Chi) as the supposed killer. After questioning his superiors, Yuchang is removed from the case, but he and Sun decide to continue their investigation without official sanction. Yuchang travels to Taiwan to Hong Kong and back to uncover the true mastermind behind the plot, along the way uncovering an insidious, tangled web of corruption that stretches all the way to the highest office in the country.
