Everyone in the snack bar reads the letter, which is assumed to be the flight attendant's way of telling the cop that their relationship is over. She leaves a letter for the snack bar owner to give to the cop. The flight attendant waits for the cop around the snack bar, and finds out he is on his day off. He meets Faye, the new girl at the snack bar. In the second story, the unnamed Cop 663 is similarly dealing with a breakup, this time with a flight attendant. He then visits his usual snack food store where he collides with a new staff member, Faye. Qiwu goes jogging and receives a message from her on his pager wishing him a happy birthday. She leaves in the morning and shoots the drug baron (played by Thom Baker) who had set her up. He shines her shoes before he leaves her sleeping on the bed. However, she is exhausted and falls asleep in a hotel room, leaving him to watch old movies alone all night and order take-out food. On 1 May, Qiwu, looking for romance, approaches the woman in the blonde wig at a bar (the Bottoms Up Club). Meanwhile, a mysterious woman in a blonde wig (played by Brigitte Lin) tries to survive in the drug underworld after a smuggling operation goes sour. By the end of this time, he feels that he will either be rejoined with his love or that it will have expired forever. Every day he buys a tin of pineapple with an expiration date of 1 May. His birthday is 1 May and he chooses to wait for May for a month before moving on. Qiwu's girlfriend May broke up with him on 1 April ( April Fool's Day). The first story concerns Taiwan-born cop He Qiwu, also known as Cop 223. However, the three main characters from the second story each momentarily appear during the first. Except for a brief moment when the first story ends and the second begins, the two stories do not interconnect. The film comprises two different stories, told one after the other, each about a romance involving a policeman. The English title refers to Chungking Mansions and the Midnight Express food stall where Faye works.

The Chinese title translates to "Chungking Jungle", referring to the metaphoric concrete jungle of the city, as well as to Chungking Mansions in Tsim Sha Tsui, where much of the first part of the movie is set. The film depicts a paradox in that even though the characters live in densely packed Hong Kong, they are mostly lonely and live in their own inner worlds. The second stars Tony Leung as a police officer who is roused from his gloom over the loss of his flight attendant girlfriend ( Valerie Chow) by the attentions of a quirky snack bar worker ( Faye Wong). The first story stars Takeshi Kaneshiro as a cop who is obsessed with the break-up of his relationship with a woman named May and his platonic encounter with a mysterious drug smuggler ( Brigitte Lin).
