Ng Hoi-Ying

A young man, blind and dumb, works as an audio tape typist in a hospital and fostering a tender and sincere relationship with a beautiful but introverted nurse. When hit by a car, he is the sixty billionth human being to die on earth, and is on transit to Polaris, en route to a yet more sophisticated form of existence in Vega. Given a reprieve of five days and a chance to be reunited with his love on earth, he cannot reveal his true identity behind the temporary facade he must present to her. Both boy and girl eventually learn, through a tangle of difficult and miraculous events, how love and good things always find ways of creeping into people's lives when people are not greedy and least expect these blessings.

May moves into a new apartment with her husband Ray and son Chi-lo, only to find out that the building is erected over a squatter area, where some of the residents died in a riot when they refused to move out. The family decides to stay nevertheless, but soon, Chi-lo mysteriously disappears without a trace.
