Ce-dernier refuse cependant d'avouer son identité, affirmant que sa vie serait en danger, mais l'inspecteur Ho (Catherine Chau ) prétend avoir des preuves que Lee est lié aux meurtres. L'interrogatoire est interrompu par l’arrivée impromptue de Yuen Man (Zhang Jingchu), une célèbre artiste qui tente de faire libérer Lee. Un accord est conclu selon lequel ce-dernier sera libéré et placé sous le programme de protection des témoins en échange de la divulgation de l'identité du « Peintre » et de la confession de ses activités criminelles.Actors

Without any clue to follow up on, Tam is decidedly at his wits' end.
