IDC Agent Jon ([[Jay Chou]]) is mortally wounded when he is ambushed while escorting a witness from Jordan to the Netherlands. He is told he has only two weeks left before he becomes paralyzed. Jon decides to spend his final days with his ill mother ([[Elaine Jin]]) in Beijing. His mother reveals to Jon that he has an older brother Yang ([[Nicholas Tse]]) and asks that he finds him. Soon, Jon discovers that his brother Man Yeung is working with the same man, Sean ([[Andy On]]), who betrayed him enroute to the Netherlands. The brothers are set to have a face off, but when Man Yeung is betrayed by Sean, the two brothers then join forces to take him out and his ingenius plans to unleash a deadly virus upon Hong Kong.<br />
