PTS / TVBS-G

Chen Zai Tian (Vic Zhou) is a womanizing layabout of a police officer. He relies on tipoffs from his underworld informants to help him crack cases – and, in many cases, these often lead him to triumphs that he claims as his own. He lives a hedonistic life, and solving crimes is mainly his side interest. His polar opposite is the justice-loving Wu Ying Xiong (Mark Chao), a straight-laced officer whose zeal for busting crime often gets him into trouble.

The duo is brought together – and must form an unlikely alliance when a series of confounding cases requires them to stop a gang that appears to even have moles in the police force. Collaborating with an officer as different as he is not easy for Chen Zai Tian – and the same is true for Wu Ying Xiong! But things get even more difficult for this duo when Chen Lin (Ivy Chen), the daughter of a triad gang boss, arrives on the scene. Could this woman spark a love rivalry between the two cops? And will it derail their bid to restore order to the streets?
