Forensic Heroes III

A sumptuous wedding banquet is being held in the ballroom of a luxurious hotel. While the bride CHO LAI-MEI and her father CHO KING-TIM are waiting in the bridal room, a shot is suddenly fired. Senior Chemist of the Forensic Science Division PO KWOK-TUNG is summoned to the hotel to collect evidence while playing with his daughter. LEE CHIN-FUNG and LING SIN-YEE of the Regional Crime Unit find three corpses upon their arrival at the ballroom. Later YEE discovers one more body under the table. After receiving a call from her teammate, YEE goes to another hotel room to have a look. TUNG follows her to the site, and after a careful investigation, they believe that one suspect is in hiding. While Senior Forensic Pathologist CHUNG HOK-SUM is conducting an initial examination, the ceiling spotlight hanging over one of the corpses becomes unfastened and falls down suddenly. Suspect CHI-WAI is questioned by FUNG and YEE.… ...

All the evidence at hand suggests that FU is the killer’s real target but it is still incomprehensible why the bride ends up being shot instead. YEE and FUNG go to see FU but are shocked to see him being pursued by a man. YEE takes FU to the emergency room, where they run into SUM. SUM notices a dark red scar on FU’s waist and quickly tells YEE about this. Scientific Evidence Officer CHEUNG CHEUK-KWAN examines the stain left on the clothes of one of the shootout victims HO-LEUNG, and later determines that it is bluefin tuna oil. YEE learns from the sushi chef that LEUNG had come to see his apprentice CHI before his death. SUM has accidentally spilled some coffee on a girl named CHEUNG-LING at a convenience store, who is later found to have vitiligo on her face. SUM stalks LING for a while and catches her meeting CHI in secret. YEE and FUNG go to see TIM. But before they can reach him, TIM has fallen off the rooftop.

YEE and FUNG find FU on the rooftop, who is trembling with fright and starts bleeding from his waist. TIM and FU are both sent to hospital while TUNG and his colleagues are heading for TIM’s mansion for evidence collection. FUNG comes to take statements from TIM, during which TIM reveals that FU is trying to blackmail him for money with nude photographs of MEI. SUM goes to the hospital to conduct a forensic examination of FU and TIM. Having cross-checked her findings with those from TUNG, SUM has finally found out the truth. TUNG reveals to his lawyer wife YIK-FEI that the Parent-Teacher Association chairman would like to close down the watercolor painting class which their daughter MAN has been attending. Thinking that it is a grossly unfair arrangement, FEI is not going to let it pass. SUM and YEE listen to a supernatural show on the radio, in which the “Sky Eye Girl” KA-MAN makes a prophecy.… ...

KA-MAN reveals to the business magnate KWOK FU-WAH a prophecy predicting his death. Feeling offended, KAM TAI-YAM, who is standing next to WAH, gives KA-MAN a telling-off and picks a quarrel with LUK CHUN-KWONG, also known as Rev LUMINOUS, a feng-shui master who has been assisting KA-MAN. The police have found WAH’s body on a mountain slope. SUM notices a number of horizontal wounds on WAH’s back but his front is unscathed. YEE and FUNG come to take statements from WAH’s wife MEI-FUN, and can tell from what she says that she is deeply in love with her husband. SUM submits the autopsy report to TUNG. After a detailed study of the report, TUNG believes that WAH’s death is a case of murder. KWONG and KA-MAN are summoned to the police station for questioning, during which KWONG explains that the feng-shui technique he taught WAH is for lifespan extension and avoidance of bad luck.… ...

FUN appoints FEI as her legal counsel, who is very confident of winning the case. YEE and FUNG go to the magazine’s office to look for clues. Staff of the Forensic Science Division get to watch a video clip of FUN and YAM recorded by a reporter, although they cannot hear what the pair are talking about. FEI who is working at home overhears TUNG talking on the phone, during which he suggests enlisting an expert to help decode the conversation between FUN and YAM. FUN is not happy with FEI’s attitude and decides to dismiss her. TUNG sees through FEI and begins to realize the gap between them. POK-SZE asks SUM to join him in observing KA-MAN. KWONG holds a prayer rally, attracting a large flock of worshippers who have come for KA-MAN’s buns. Some people start to develop itches as soon as they touch the buns, among whom one even throws up blood and dies after taking just a bite.… ...

YEE sees KA-MAN waving a knife at the altar and orders her to stop at once. In the confusion, FUNG manages to disarm and subdue the girl. Knowing that KWONG is still alive, YEE and FUNG send him to hospital immediately. SUM points out to YEE that KA-MAN may be suffering from autism. TUNG and his team come to the altar for evidence collection. Judging from the circumstantial evidence, TUNG believes that it is not KA-MAN but someone else who has injured KWONG. With the help of the bloodstained string bracelet found at the altar, the police have finally made a breakthrough in the investigation. SUM and SZE accompany KA-MAN back to the altar following her discharge. KA-MAN refuses to go back to her bedroom insisting that it is haunted by ghosts. SUM suspects that KA-MAN has been sexually assaulted, and immediately tells YEE about her thoughts.… ...

TUNG and his team go out for a pint as celebration, during which they discover that CHING-MAN does not drink alcoholic beverages. SUM tells TUNG that she is going on a date with SAI-YAU, making TUNG believe that they have already become an item. HONG-CHAN tells his teammates that he needs to settle his sister’s school fees as soon as possible. FUNG sympathizes with CHAN and offers to lend him a large sum of money immediately, which surprises the whole team no end. FUNG does YEE a favor by delivering the door keys to her mother FUNG-PING, and later is even generous enough to do some repairs for the lady. SHUN-HING runs into his old neighbor Auntie TSAT at the bone-setting clinic, during which Auntie TSAT reveals that tenants FUNG CHOR-KAU, KOO WING-KEUNG and CHAN YUK-MING have claimed adverse possession of the rental flats originally owned by TSUI SAI-TAT. YEE and her teammates find a burnt male corpse inside a tipping trailer.… ...

TUNG can tell from the circumstantial evidence that KAU, KEUNG and MING are all lying. KAU has no choice but to reveal to the police how they met TAT and what happened afterwards. YEE reports to her supervisor WAI-HUNG that there is still insufficient evidence to charge KAU, KEUNG and MING. KWAN has accidentally spilled some coffee on her blouse at her colleague SUK-YU’s birthday party, so she rushes to the toilet to clean up right away. But since the female toilet is closed temporarily, she has to use the one for men instead. Later CHING-MAN goes straight into the toilet and is shocked to see the naked KWAN. Thinking that CHING-MAN is making fun of her in front of their colleagues, KWAN is completely enraged. To seek revenge, she slips some alcohol into his drink, causing him to lose his sanity within just a minute. KEUNG reveals to the police that it is MING who has killed TAT but MING insists that KAU is the real culprit.… ...

YAU comes to visit SUM, during which SUM gets a call from SZE saying that he is having a check-up at hospital. YAU can see that SUM is very worried about SZE’s health. Knowing that there must be a story behind, YAU tries to talk it through with SUM, but is rejected. While shopping together, YEE and SUM spot a teenage girl APPLE ranting and raving around in the street. SUM suspects that APPLE is on drugs, which have left her in such a confused state of mind. YEE injures herself while trying to rescue APPLE, and the two of them are both sent to hospital for treatment. SUM persuades APPLE to give up drugs, but gets a terrible telling-off in return. FEI gets a call from her client WILSON early in the morning, who is being detained by the police for a road accident. FEI hurries to the spot to have a look, where she runs into HING. YEE goes to a hotel to investigate a death, in which APPLE is the victim.… ...

FUNG questions a hotel guest, from whom he learns that the room service waiter WONG CHUNG-ON did come up to deliver breakfast earlier in the morning. FUNG who is delivering the collected evidence back to the police station bumps into ON along the way. Immediately he gets out of the car to pursue the man. FEI accompanies WILSON to the police station for questioning, where she runs into SUM and picks an argument with her. YEE gets a call from the Traffic Division advising that HING, as one of the road accident witnesses, has heard WILSON say that he has killed someone. Knowing that he is going to appear in court as a witness, HING feels so proud and keeps boasting about it before his neighbors. FEI has bought HING a new cell phone, adding that she will act as WILSON’s defense counsel, and asking for his understanding. Inside the court, FEI challenges the evidence against WILSON point by point.… ...

FEI refers to HING as a visually and hearing impaired old chap in the court, which infuriates him no end. Later FEI proceeds to point out that FUNG had already screwed up the chain of evidence when he was pursuing ON and that all the evidence concerned should be deemed invalid. This view is supported by the judge. CHING-MAN tells KWAN about his childhood and the pair have finally made up with each other. PING comes to visit YEE at the police station with a pot of soup, in a deliberate attempt to find out more about her colleagues. Among all, HUNG is the one who impressed PING most. SUM runs into her old schoolmate STELLA, who is currently following up APPLE’s case as a social worker. She follows STELLA to APPLE’s residence and makes a big discovery fortuitously. The vet reveals that a young girl once came and asked to claim the ashes of APPLE’s dog, whom SUM believes is APPLE’s good friend BABY.… ...

YEE and her team go to look for BABY in her hideout, but are shocked to find that she has been kidnapped. WILSON is thrilled to know that BABY is absent from the trial, and FEI is confident that they stand a good chance of winning the case. Based on the gravel collected from BABY’s hideout, PO has finally traced the girls’ whereabouts. YEE and her team bustle around looking for BABY and finally manage to locate her just before the trial begins. According to the kidnappers, it is BENNY who has plotted the whole thing, so YEE goes to arrest him at once. YEE tries to convince BENNY to testify against WILSON, who is believed to be the real mastermind behind the kidnap. Unfortunately BENNY refuses and chooses to take all the blame. FEI goes to visit WILSON in the detention cell, during which she reveals the arrest of BENNY and suggests him plead guilty to the charge of manslaughter.… ...

YAU and SUM have been dating for a while.

A male corpse is found inside a kitchen waste bin on the university campus. The Forensic Science Division and the Regional Crime Unit work together on the investigation, during which the dormitory warden points out that the victim WU SAI-HANG had become incredibly aloof since the excruciating “Bus Nerd” clip was released on the Internet. TUNG has no idea what has caused the grid-shaped wounds on SAI-HANG’s back, while CHING-MAN is curious to know why someone as good at technology as SAI-HANG would have such an outdated pinhole camera. CHAN and his teammates have found a video clip on SAI-HANG’s cell phone, which shows a group of people, including YEE and FUNG, performing street dancing. YEE and FUNG have come to realize that SAI-HANG was also there that very night as a member of the audience. YEE goes to question SAI-HANG’s classmate OSCAR.… ...
