[ HONG KONG MOVIE 6 ]
The year is 1995. Mangya, A northwestern border town of China has become a ghost town since the once-prosperous mine and border trade shut down. The town has become an island, isolated from the outside world.
There is only one police station with three police officers and one gun. XIA Ran, a retired soldier has spent over a decade here. There's a saying that he’s the last survivor of the battlefield but he never talk about his story.
Sandstorms hit the town once a year, and a catastrophic, once-in-a-decade sandstorm is forecasted for this year. The storm looms on the horizon; the final transport out of town has long left. In the dead of night, five corpses are tossed into the oil tank in the town's sole gas station. The piercing silence is interrupted by a pack of uninvited guests.
However, what frightens XIA Ran more than the murders is that the gas station's tank has been emptied and the town's phone line has been severed. As the sandstorm closes in on Mangya, he realizes that everyone in town has been trapped. Even worse, it seems that some of the town people have their own secrets too...

[ BROADWAY CIRCUIT ]
Au Yeung Wai Yip is a private detective who has been focusing on missing persons and adultery investigations for many years. One day, he received a "special" commission: the owner of the travel agency had asked him to investigate his girlfriend, who happened to be Au Yeung Wai Yip’s wife.
Being a private detective, he is used to looking for the truth with cold eyes for his clients, but he finds it difficult to face the truth about their own marriage. Unable to withstand his inner torment, Au Yeung Wai Yip gave up on another ongoing case - a client's search for his missing fiancée - and went to the hotel to catch the adulterer. Unfortunately, the marriage could not be saved in the end, and the client's fiancée was killed after he left. A seemingly ordinary affair turned into a murderous incident! The police officer in charge of investigating this murder case, Chan Heong Meng, who is seemingly a good policeman and husband, discovers that more than one woman has been killed in a similar manner—the perpetrator is very likely a serial killer. After handing over the clues to Chan Heong Meng, Au Yeung Wai Yip found himself unknowingly entangled in an intricate web of mystery, with danger looming through the thick fog. To prevent the killer from striking the next target, he must rely on his professional detective instincts to turn the tide.
