Red Peafowl

Lu Yi Peng graduated from the Royal Hong Kong Police Cadet School with first-class honours. He made many accomplishments in his first year in the service. Behind the mission that earned him his reputation, however, Lu Yi Peng has something to hide. A psycho mafiaso who calls himself Hong Kong Que—literally, Red Peafowl—likes to ask for a look at the red peafowl scar on Yi Peng's thigh, a gift from that one mission. He'd supplied him with a strange drug, forcing him into a physical relationship with the change in feelings it wrought. Yi Peng seethes and daresn't tell anyone. He doesn't know from where this karma comes, but Yi Peng finds himself losing to Hong Kong Que every time. He vows, however, to one day put the man behind bars.
