Men with No Shadows

DR. KONG TUNG-KIN explains to a patient the effect of his medication. KONG WAI-MUI, his nurse, who is also his step-sister, urges him to hurry up. Keeping KIN in the dark, MUI refers the patient to the Chinese medical practitioner next door. SUNG CHOR-KIU, the Chinese medical practitioner, is no one else but her mother. KIN’s father, KONG CHI-TAT, visits KIN’s mother, KAM WAH-HEI. TAT is rude to HEI. HEI has been tyrannized by MUI all these years. KIN blames TAT for fooling around. KIN decides to put up at the laboratory for the time being while he works on the development of a new drug. DR. MAN KA-LING, who is a pharmacologist, tells KIN that a pharmaceutical company has agreed to support their project. However, they soon discover that the company has been bought up by Hong Zhi Pharmaceutical Co Ltd. KIN and LING run into TONG GING-TIN, CEO of Hong Zhi, as they are leaving Hong Zhi. TIN invites them to join his company.… ...

After some negotiation, FUNG agrees not to take KIN’s life for the time being. FUNG is taken aback later when FUNG becomes his neighbor. FUNG wants to take HEI’s life. KIN stops him right away. FUNG demands KIN to give him a name in two day. FUNG suggests TIN. KIN gives it a thought. TONG WING-SUN, TIN’s son, appears with FUNG. FUNG claims he is able to make TIN support KIN’s project again as well as change his view on him. Not soon afterwards, TIN visits KIN at the laboratory. TIN tells KIN he is interested in developing the anti-sensitivity medicine he is working on. KIN puts him off, as he has no clue at all about what he really wants.

Taking with him a bunch of flowers, KIN heads for the hospital to express his love for FONG. He is surprised to learn that she is going out with SUN. KIN has passed FUNG’s test, which means his life is spared. FUNG is staying however to learn how to be a human being. He wants to be friends with KIN. FUNG tells KIN he will call on him with his girlfriend later for dinner. KIN fears it is FONG he is talking about. FUNG has become a sales executive of Hong Zhi Pharmaceutical Co Ltd. He is late the first day he reports duty. SUN is not happy about this. FUNG tells KIN to come over to HONG ZHI and demands that he cooperate with TIN. It takes FUNG a bit of persuasion to convince KIN the advantages of working with TIN. KIN agrees to develop a dementia drug for TIN while he continues to work on his anti-sensitivity medicine. FONG visits SUN at Hong Zhi. TIN’s ridicule embarrasses her.

SUN has broken up with FONG. FUNG denies KIN’s accusation of screwing up their relationship. FUNG encourages KIN to run after FONG. KIN insists he only sees her as a willing participant for his anti-sensitivity drug trial. FUNG does not believe him of course. FONG and KIN talk about the drug trial at a shoe shop. FUNG appears out of the blue, claiming he has told FONG about the trial already. Now that FONG is participating at KIN’s drug trial, she decides to work at KIN’s clinic as well for convenience sake. KIN is very pleased, as this mean he will see her more often from now on. A woman complains of stomachache in front of KIU’s clinic. FONG sees her, and takes her to KIN’s clinic. Later when KIU learns about this, she flies into a fit of anger and blames KIN for snapping her patient. FUNG invites FONG to a date again.… ...

TIN stops funding for anti-sensitivity drug project, believing KIN will then concentrate on the development of the new dementia drug. SUN appoints FUNG as his personal assistant so that he can bully him whatever he feels like. A magazine would like to interview TIN. KIN takes the opportunity to make him continue his support for the anti-sensitivity drug. FONG cannot attend the graduation ceremony of the nursing school because of the recurrence of her sensitivity. FUNG goes to the ceremony on behalf of her. She is deeply touched when he shows her the recording of her course mates’ words of encouragement. FUNG does very well in selling drugs. He tells KIN and FONG the good news, as well as treating her to dinner. As far as KIN is concerned, a demon should not fall in love with a human person. He therefore tells FUNG to stop running after FONG. FUNG will not listen however.… ...

Worried about KIN, FONG returns to the church, only to see him in a confrontation with FUNG. KIN tells her FUNG is a demon. KIN tries to exorcise FUNG. FONG listens to FUNG’s heart with a stethoscope but finds no heart beat. KIU helps SUN gather information of proprietary Chinese medicine. SAU-WAN and FOOK-TSUEN both think it is a good opportunity for them to make public and promote their family prescription. HEI has fallen ill in mainland China. KIN and FONG go to see her as soon as they hear about the news. TAT gets back his mainland travel permit with the help of FUNG. KIU, TSUEN and SUN have a meeting with TIN. TIN criticizes their study for lacking statistical support. TIN appoints KIN to take charge of the proprietary Chinese medicine research. KIU has no choice but to make peace with HEI.

The memories of how KIN caused the death of FUNG’s father as well as his family tragedy come back vividly to FUNG. FUNG had tried to knock over and kill KIN, but he failed and got seriously injured instead. He did not die though. With the assistance of a demon he began his revenge plan. FONG and KIN goes to HEI’s for supper. HEI urges them to tie the knot, embarrassing them both. KIN is suffering from fatigue and a fever. FONG visits FUNG, offering to hand over her life on the condition that he spares KIN’s. FUNG refuses at first but her constant begging moves him. He agrees to take her soul to the hell in the end. KIN cannot believe it when FONG suggests that they get married. Looking at them, FUNG knows that his revenge plan is now entering another phase.

TIN has a severe stomachache when he is exercising. Fortunately, SUN is with him. TIN takes SUN to an award presentation, where they run into TIN’s competitor, CHENG KA-WAI. BEN feels that SUN has been nitpicking on him a lot. He would like to have a word with SUN, but FUNG takes him to a restaurant. On the other hand, FUNG tells SUN he has found the evidence of BEN spying on the company’s information for their competitor. KIN fears that FUNG will take his life when his dream has come true. FUNG assures him he will not. KIN proposes to FONG. She is touched by his sincerity. SUN and KIU report the progress of their research to TIN. To their huge disappointment, TIN tells them the project has been called off. KIU believes KIN is to blame. Furious, she forbids TAT from going to KIN and FONG’s wedding.
