And one of the big places was the police force.

So his father is one of those people who came out pretty late.

I mean, they were still taking people from Britain in the early 90s, and they were still having difficulties transitioning.

You know, they'd only just started having Chinese offices 10 years before.

I mean, it wasn't there.

It was called Asia's Finest, and

So his father, who died when he was young and left him in charge of his stepmother, who was Chinese.

So he was basically raised as a full Hong Konger, speaking, you know, properly speaking Mandarin and Cantonese.

And he's in the force.

And there's a terrible incident because everybody in the force has to rotate through, quote unquote, riot duty.

In other words, protest suppression, whatever you want to call them, riot squads.

Because there aren't enough people in the police to... The demonstrations are so great.

You know, a million people on the street sometimes at one time.

Crazy numbers.

20% of the population.

So the police had to cycle through other offices so they wouldn't have enough money to control the crowd.

So yeah, there's an unfortunate incident.

He's basically exiled, sent away to what counts as a Siberian Hong Kong, which is such a small place, it's not far.

And he's trying to, there's a murderer and he's asked if he'll take care of it.

So that's his road to getting back in the force.
