Lei reasoned that this would aid efforts to bring the syndicate down. If all went as planned, he could also capture the assassin and establish a plausible connection between the assassin and the syndicate.
Lei thought that he could gain valuable information from the boxer about the syndicate. The syndicate apparently hired an assassin for the hit. As a result of this betrayal, Lei wound up on a one-month suspension from active duty.ĭuring his suspension, Lei learned from an informant that the syndicate was plotting to assassinate a boxer participating in the King of Iron Fist Tournament 4. Unbeknown to Lei, the rivals reported to Lei's superiors that he botched the operation by "allowing personal affairs to affect his job performance". Rival detectives who were jealous of Lei's stellar case record saw this as an opportunity to damage Lei's career. The failure cost the police force two years worth of intense undercover investigations. Lei failed to capture an agent of the syndicate, who would have enabled the police to take down the syndicate's boss. When Lei found out about this, he became extremely depressed.Īround the same time, Lei botched an operation to bring a crime syndicate to justice. Ironically, the assistant acted as a liaison for Lei whenever she wanted to get in touch with him at work. Unfortunately for Lei, his live-in girlfriend got fed up with Lei's workaholic lifestyle and dumped him in favor of Lei's assistant.
Lei's life was consumed as usual by police work. During the Fall, Lei is practicing with a sword and Lei finally decides to rest, sleeping on a golden Buddha statue. In the summer, Lei is practicing with a thin saucer the following winter, Lei is practicing Snake Style Kung-fu by grabbing eggs from the tops of bamboo sticks (the animations for these two scenes are taken from Jackie Chan's movie, The Snake in the Eagle's Shadow). Lei practices his Kung-fu over the seasons on the Great Wall. A believer in fate, Lei feels there's a reason for this meeting. Why Heihachi would seek him out for a mere tournament was beyond Lei. He asked Lei to join the "King of Iron Fist Tournament 3". During these investigations, Lei was visited by the head man of the MFE, Heihachi Mishima. Falling within his jurisdiction are the strange disappearances of prominent martial artists. Known as Supercop, he's feared internationally by even the most powerful of crime organizations. Though 19 years have passed, nobody believes he is 45. After the last tournament, Lei returned to his job as an investigator of international crime. Lei's investigation and intuition led him to believe the accident was staged, and he doubts that Bruce is really dead. It was rumored that Kazuya's corps were involved as a means of silencing Bruce. Bruce's flight home was then reported crashed, killing all passengers aboard. There is a close up on the target, with bullet holes saying "The End".īruce Irvin almost pushed Lei to the brink of defeat in Tekken 2, but Lei managed to come away victorious. He runs out of bullets, smiles and reloads. To further his inquiry, he enters the second Rave War! Lei vowed to track down the center of Kazuya's operations and retrieve Bruce. But he lost his memories from an airplane crash and started working for Kazuya. A number of killings lead to the investigation of Kazuya Mishima, who was linked with several Triad and Mafia transactions across the globe. Although his attempts can sometimes be clumsy, Lei's intentions are always virtuous in nature.ĭuring his time as one of the most respected Hong Kong police detectives, officer Lei Wulong has developed his own style of Kung Fu, and uses this to his advantage when facing the many criminals he encounters within his home metropolis. For his enemies however, he attains a stern and direct approach to their arrest. In his Tekken 5 interludes, he is shown treating his friends (such as Wang Jinrei and Steve Fox) with compassion and respect. He is fair minded and affable to those around him (unless they break the law). Dedicated to the point of obsession, Lei is a law abiding and gifted cop.
