Simon Tam (Andy Lau) is a righteous private detective who is working for free for 3 years and 8 months at the behest of his superstitious mentor. Simon has completed 3 years, 7 months, and 28 days as the backstory is completed.
On the second to last day of that period, his assistant Joe (Simon Lui) accepts a case involving missing money and an advance down payment of HK$1,000,000. The next day, the client mysteriously dies; Simon decides to find the money for the client's wife, Yvonne (Rosamund Kwan). The missing money turns out to amount to ten thousand million (i.e., ten American billion) Hong Kong dollars of triad money; both Simon and the triads chase after it.
