The fly in the link below was found on a desk in the flat.
Would it be a long-legged fly?

This one shouts Syntormon! but I dunno whether that occurs in Hong Kong or whether anything similar might occur there, too.

Thanks Paul and Chris!
(the photo was not taken by me so I just pasted the link before)

Syntormon occurs in China.
Not sure if it is the genus but such antenna shape is quite distinctive for dolichopodids here.
Is Syntormon under Sympycninae?
