Story

Lycoris is said to have been a hostess at a KTV bar, but she is actually a member of the assassin syndicate known as the Web. She worked for police inspector Lau Kin Ming, killing members of underworld mobs. When Lau ordered her to kill his subordinate Lai, who had discovered Lau’s use of the Web, Lycoris refused and killed Lau instead. She is now being pursued by the syndicate.

Lai introduces Lycoris to Yeung Kwun, leader of the Red Flower Society, an underworld mob operating in Kowloon, Hong Kong. Yeung sends her to Bangkok to hide from the Web. There, she encounters Zhang Lei, a regular customer from the KTV bar who leads the underworld mob HH brothers, accompanied by Wolf, Lycoris’ childhood friend.

Meanwhile, probationary inspector Sam and senior constable Chase investigate Lau Kin Ming’s death. Searching for evidence about the murder, Sam finds CCTV footage showing his colleague Lai with a woman and suspects Lai was involved in the killing.
