A highly-anticipated sequel also stars Louis Koo, Karena Lam, Michael Miu, Cherrie Ying, Chrissie Chau and Cheung Kwok Keung. At the film commencement press conference in Hong Kong, the stars were escorted to the movie set, an exact replica of the Central Hong Kong MTR which cost more than HK$10 million and more than 5 months to create.

The story talks about the storm in the drug trade after Dee expanded his drug trafficking business to collaborate with the drug kingpin of Mexico, along with multiple incidents of ‘stealing from the thieves’. Philanthropist Yu who detests drugs to the core after witnessing his own father fall prey to drugs during his childhood offered a bounty of HK$100 million for the capture of Hong Kong’s drug lord. Constable Lin who was gathering evidence against Dee is in a dilemma when the offer of the bounty puts Dee in danger. Incidentally, Lin is also tempted by the potential windfall should he compromise on his integrity and hands Dee over. When the dark secrets emerge, an inevitable storm ensues.
