Yat and Fa grow fond of each other over the years, but a competition estranges them and they lose contact.

With each of them possessing a unique talent, they gradually uncover that the mole might be Fok's right-hand man Lam Lui, confidant Yau Yuet-wah, or one of their rivals. But nothing is as it seems.
