Fights against injustice and crime.
he's more than just a cop

原来爱上贼 (故事大綱)
故事以「兵賊鬥智」作為脈絡,以一宗「毒犯贓款被劫案」開出。幹探江揚 (馬德鐘飾) 英勇揖拿毒犯,雖立了大功,卻未能起出贓款。而另一邊廂,以高哲 (劉松仁飾) 為代表的賊團卻策劃成功劫去贓款。揚對此展開調查,誓要起出賊團的主腦人物,兵賊鬥法的序幕從此揭開...
揚調查哲過程中,發現哲可能就是5年前銀行劫案的幕後策劃人,而揚的師傅在此案中殉職。揚發現劫案其實另有內情,更揭開師傅「兵變賊」的真相。
揚與哲交手期間,同時要面對其他重型罪犯。當他無法搜集足夠証據把這些罪犯正法,同時目睹受害人的慘況,就緊張得發瘋,更想過知法犯法、插贜把罪犯入罪。經歷「兵變賊」的掙扎過程,雖然他最後能懸岸勒馬,但仍被警察內部調查。
至於哲作為俠盜,他有自己一套鋤強扶弱、劫富濟貧的信念。他會用非常手段,把警察不能繩諸法的罪犯加以懲戒。兵賊雖然誓不兩立,有時卻又殊途同歸,都是為了儆惡懲奸。因此,這兩個兵賊雙雄,由仇敵,到惺惺相惜,繼而發展出情義關係...
但對一個警察來說,對賊匪有情義,這已是一種身份及信念危機,所以揚唯有選擇戰勝哲來堅定自己的信念。揚漸陷入瘋狂狀態,沉迷於兵賊的勝負遊戲,更因而影響與家人的和諧關係,甚至與妻子Minnie (陳法拉飾) 亮起了婚姻紅燈...
而哲作為賊團首領,一旦敗在揚這幹探手中,即等如面對牢獄之災,這是他不能接受的,更何況難得棋逢敵手,他也享受兵賊鬥智的刺激挑戰,直至哲與失婚婦人包蓉蓉 (陳玉蓮飾) 建立了感情,對自己的人生路才重新作了反思...
蓉作為一個簡單純良的師奶,經歷失婚、被騙而錯失兒子、重投社會遭到欺壓等等挫折,依然能夠以寬闊的心胸面對不幸和不平事,且懂得以簡單智慧來釋放怨恨和心結,她的平和快樂,在黑白灰的兵賊複雜世界裡,猶如一股清泉,令哲重新思考將來想要過一種怎樣的生活。最後,哲為了與蓉可以過平靜快樂的日子,決定洗手不幹。
可惜,兵賊兩伙人因一宗以非常手段對付大奸的爭奪戰中,雙方鬥得欲罷不能,揚作為警察不可能放過哲這個賊首,而哲為了賊團手足的情義和利益,唯有承擔一切,兵賊無可避免面臨終極決戰...

D.I.E <古靈精探>


Falling into a trance-like state helps him crack case in mystery
The "Death Investigation Extension (D.I.E.)" in the police force was established to accommodate those who have been sent away by their supervisors. As everybody knows, members of the Extension are to investigate unsolved cold cases. YUE CHI-LONG (Kwok Chun On), who has cracked a large number of difficult cases by extrasensory means, is assigned to the D.I.E. believing that he will get promoted soon. Later LONG finds out that his supervisor still has a long way to go before he reaches retirement age. Hoping to leave the Extension as soon as possible, he gets to solve a lot of intriguing cases. New appointee YING CHING-CHING (Kwok Sonija) is a good-looking girl but she means to act tough and sassy in front of others. She takes an uncompromising stand over every case she deals with, which leads her into constant quarrels with LONG. The relationship between the pair is deteriorating day after day.
LONG's elder sister, YUE CHI-CHING (Tsang Wah Sin), has been living with him. While investigating an old case, LONG gets to find his long-lost father YUE TAI-HOI (Leung Ka Yan). Through close collaboration with LONG, CHING-CHING has gradually developed affection for him. As she is still torn between LONG and her two-timing boyfriend SHING KA-TSUN (Ma Kwok Ming), LONG has started to try to avoid her without rhyme or reason.
