SYNOPSIS
When a jeweller is swindled with counterfeit money and commits suicide, it is just the start of more fake money been circulated around the city. Superiors at the Hong Kong Police assign Dragon (Ho Chung-Tao) from the Special Unit, and Detective Chang onto the case.
After briefing them on the suspects, Han Tin Lung (Han Ying Chieh), and his son, Han Chin-Wei (John Cheung), they begin their investigation. The case is made even harder to crack due to the fact that both Han and his son are both kung fu experts.
Dragon starts by following the son, Chin-Wei, and is led to his connection from Japan, Kimura (Bolo Yeung). While Chang follows a lead on a girl named Dana who recently arrived in Hong Kong and is suspected of carrying the paper for printing the counterfeit money. However, Dana is pretty smart, and quickly realizes that they have her hotel room bugged.
The connection from Japan, Kimura, doesn't like Han's terms and gets greedy by stealing the printing plates with the plan on going into business for himself. When Han discovers this, the old-man gets even with him.
As the lead on Kimura comes to a dead-end, Dragon and Chiang keep a closer watch on Dana, who also seems to have a hidden agenda.
