[Hayate the Combat Butler] Episode Two

I thought I was bathing in medicinal water.

Was it a dream?

But why does my head hurt?

- Are you okay? - You were the one by the pool!

Sorry. I'm very sorry.

- I didn't do it on purpose! - Ever since you arrived

you had been lying here unconscious.

How are you feeling now?

I... laid here unconscious the whole time?

That's right. You laid here unconscious the whole time.

But I saw...

- Was it a dream? - I don't care what you saw.

It was all a dream.

But why is it all wet here?

I was so nervous and in a rush, I forgot to dry him.

You must be sweating because of your injuries.

Sweating is good for the body.

- Xiao Sa. - Yes?

- May I ask you a question? - Sure.

Wait.

How do you know my name?

Sorry, I found this letter in the jacket you gave the Mistress.

Mistress?

The Mistress is who you almost died saving today.

San Qian Yuan Zhi.

She's Miss San Qian Yuan?

Wait...

You mean the incredibly rich

San Qian Yuan family that leads the petrochemistry industry?

So that girl was San Qian Yuan Zhi?

Ling Qi Sa, if what was said was true

then you're a very dangerous person.

No way. Just from the letter

she can tell that I wanted to kidnap the Mistress?

The Mistress said you wanted to capture her.

Sorry... I'm not a bad person! Sorry...

I didn't mean to kidnap her. Sorry...

I'm not a bad person... Sorry...

Now I'm certain you mean to kidnap her when you said you want to capture her.

After hearing your explanation, I understand now.

I'm sorry, please give me another chance.

That's not the problem.

Mistress completely misunderstood what you said.

- She thought you meant... - Xiao Sa!

You're awake? How do you feel?

Much better now. Thank you.

I apologize for what happened at that park.

I shouldn't have tried to kidnap you.

I...

I was a bit frightened.

After all that was the first time someone confessed their love to me.

What are you going to do now?

Please don't call the cops on me. Please...

No way, he wants me to decide now if I want to be with him?

Although you rescued me, we don't know each other well yet

we shouldn't decide so hastily.

I want to think about it.

She's right, I did want to kidnap her.

Asking her to forgive me right away would be difficult.

Okay, I'll wait for your answer.

Neither of them are talking about the same thing, are they?

Xiao Sa, are you looking for a job that covers housing and food?

- Yes. - Then be my new butler!

Butler?

- Mistress, you're misunderstanding... - Xiao Sa.

I want to trust you.

If I don't find a new butler I would get kidnapped again like today.

I am very pleased that you risked your life to save me.

So don't disappoint me!

Not only did she forgive me

she gave me a job that covers housing and food.

No one has ever been this nice to me.

She... She is too kind!

Mistress, thank you!

Mistress, I'm willing to be your butler.

No matter what happens, I'll do my best to protect you.

I know your intentions

but don't say such embarrassing things in front of Maria.

Ling Qi Sa seems like a good person.

He was sincere when he rescued the Mistress.

But he did want to kidnap her when he first approached her.

If I tell her the truth

she would seclude herself and never trust anyone again.

Should I let him stay near her?

Maria, inform Head Butler Ke of my decision.

I want Xiao Sa to start working tomorrow.

- Mistress, do you want... - Hurry!

Thank you, thank you!

You're letting me stay in the mansion?

Yes, why not?

Didn't you say that only you Head Butler Ke, and Maria live here?

But Head Butler Ke is not always here.

If so, I would feel very stressed.

Why?

Honestly, I've never lived with girls before.

Especially with such a cute girl.

I would feel very uncomfortable and stressed.

Don't spout nonsense.

Aren't you drinking Chinese medicine?

Why do you still have such a sweet mouth?

I'm serious. I don't have a sweet mouth.

Anyone living with such a cute girl would feel stressed.

What? Don't think you can flatter me like that.

We won't be living in the same room.

Anyways, not that cute.

What?

Maria is so pretty and cute.

You don't think so?

Your face...

What did you say?

Let me warn you.

If you dare touch, bully, or lie to her

I will turn you into minced meat!

Mistress, I won't!

Shut up.

I'll exert forty-right types of execution

and fifty-two types of extreme torture on your body.

Then I'll push you down to the eighteenth level of hell

so you can never rise again!

I won't...

Enough. I don't want to hear it.

I'm going to bed.

You better behave yourself.

I'm dead.

She thinks I'm a pervert now.

I'll not allow this stranger to become the Mistress's butler!

But Ling Qi Sa is her savior.

Savior?

So what?

Do you know his background?

Does he know how to fly a plane?

Does he have judo, jeet kune do, aikido, or karate coaching qualification?

Does he have a lawyer, doctor, actuary or nutritionist license?

Does he know how to drive a tank, space shuttle, or a satellite?

I don't think so.

He can't do any of those?

Did he study with the World Butler Legion?

Ling Qi Sa is just an ordinary person.

An ordinary person?

How can I allow a useless thing be with the Mistress?

Do we want the Mistress to be kidnapped again?

No. I, Ke Lao Fu, won't allow those that didn't train with the World Butler Legion

to stay beside the Mistress!

Then do you have a plan to get rid of him?

Not yet.

Maria, don't you always agree with the Mistress's decisions?

I can't believe that we're on the same side this time.

Do you know a secret about him?

If I tell Head Butler Ke that Ling Qi Sa attempted to kidnap the Mistress

he would die from old age in jail.

I need to approach this differently.

I don't know any secrets.

I am just uncertain if I want him to be close to the Mistress.

Yes, always worry more than the master.

That's how you become a competent butler.

But you worry is unnecessary

because...

I'll not let this good-for-nothing stay beside the Mistress!

I adjusted the uniform last night.

I'm surprised it fits you so well.

You adjusted the uniform for me?

Thank you very much.

This is the first time someone sewed for me.

And you did such a great job.

Next, please start your first task.

Always do your best on your first task so that you leave a good impression.

Why is there so much money here?

They're all NT$50 coins.

Too many of them.

If I take three, four

or even ten of them

no one would even notice.

If I take five every day, I would have fifty in ten days.

I would have NT$2500!

No! Put it back.

There must be at least NT$500,000 in there.

If I spend NT$500,000 buying lottery tickets

I would increase my chance of winning a lot!

When no one is watching people take off their masks.

Ling Qi Sa, you revealed your true greedy self.

- Security. - Yes?

Immediately go to the west corridor of the mansion

and catch Ling Qi Sa.

On my way.

He destroyed his own future.

Which room is he trying to enter?

He must be trying to hide.

That is the west side.

Who is it?

Maria, are you in there?

What are you doing?

I found this bucket at the west living room.

It's filled with NT$50 coins.

Leaving so much money out like that is dangerous.

People will want to steal them.

Because I wanted to take some too.

Putting this out there will tempt people to steal.

That's not good. It's too dangerous.

Did he find out I was testing him?

Maria.

What are you thinking about?

You brought the money to me because you're afraid people will steal it?

Yes, is something wrong?

No. Thank you.

But how did you know I was here?

I didn't sense any presences in the other rooms

but when I pass by this room

I smelled your unique body scent.

So I guessed you would be here.

My unique body scent?

I also don't know why I know your scent.

Is it because of what happened at the medicinal pool?

Are you usually that sensitive?

I had to hide from debt collectors since I was young

so I'm extra sensitive to danger.

I pay attention to the slightest movements.

After all, the quicker I notice them, the quicker I can escape.

I'll go back to cleaning.

Looks like he had a difficult childhood.

Almost done.

This is the last room.

You're not allowed to enter that room.

- Why? - Just don't.

Remember. You must not enter.

I understand.

Good morning, Mistress.

Good morning, Maria.

Mistress, good morning.

His eyes still show honesty.

With my charm, he definitely won't cheat.

Good morning, Xiao Sa.

Xiao Sa, this butler uniform fits you very well.

You look really good.

Thank you, Mistress.

Miss Maria personally adjusted it for me.

Maria helped you adjust it?

Yes, and it fits perfectly.

Yes. Maria is skilled with her hands.

Is that what you wanted to say?

I'm naturally not skilled.

Mistress...

Why was the Mistress mad?

Did I do something wrong?

Mistress.

This person cannot stay here.

You must be Head Butler Ke, right?

Nice to meet you, I'm Ling Qi Sa.

Did someone talk just now?

Mistress, please make him leave immediately.

No way.

Then don't mind me.

Let go.

Without my approval, no one can make Xiao Sa leave.

Mistress, look at him.

He's skinny and doesn't look like he has any abilities.

How will he protect you?

What would happen if someone kidnapped you again?

The number of people out there that want to kidnap you

crawling, instead of lining up, would add up to two Taipei 101.

I don't care. I think protecting me is a piece of cake for Xiao Sa.

Let me honestly tell you.

When Xiao Sa faces an urgent situation, he would transform into a combative state.

He would be fine even falling from a two thousand feet altitude.

He can even wrestle five polar bears with his bare hands concurrently.

Is that true?

Of course not.

Mistress, I can't transform

or fight five polar bears.

I know. I am just trying to scare him.

Anyway, I won't allow you to kick out Xiao Sa.

Mistress, if he's as amazing as you've described

then he should be able to pass my test.

Of course.

If he does not pass my test

he must immediately leave this mansion.

Okay.

Be it cannons, tanks, or war-fighting machines

we will respect your request.

Mistress, you better not regret this.

Mistress, isn't it dangerous to agree without knowing what the test is?

No, I'm sure you can pass any tests.

Maria, doesn't the Mistress have too high expectations for me?

She hasn't been this lively for a long time.

She hasn't trust anyone in a long time either.

I think those changes are because of you.

Since I promised the Mistress

I must not disappoint her.

Even if I'm at my limits

I'll try my best.

Mistress, I'll do my best.

Xiao Sa, fighting!

Fighting.

Fighting.

Fighting.

Mistress.

Allow me to introduce the World Butler Legion's

second highest ranking butler

Mu Rong Bing Shi.

Of course, we also have the legion's selected judges.

Mistress.

This top level butler

was awarded WBL of

excellence in moral, intellect, physical health, teamwork, and art.

At the same time he has doctor, lawyer, chef

and three star Michelin cake chef licenses.

He is also certified to operate tanks, planes

ferris wheel, and Apollo Mercury shuttle rides.

He has judo, karate, taekwondo jeet kune do, and wing chun...

coaching qualifications.

Encountering you under such magnificent color

was this arranged by Buddha?

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

And you are?

I am He Da He, Bing Shi's young master.

Young master sprinkles flowers for the butler?

That's because I'm Mu Rong Bing Shi.

What a confident person.

What's the point of all this nonsense?

Why did you bring him here?

Mistress, if your friend Ling... Ling Qi Sa?

If he can beat Butler Mu Rong on the test

or even pass it, he can stay beside you.

Bring it on.

Who is scared of whom?

Okay, we'll start the test immediately.

Xiao Sa, fighting!

The topic is: when waking up the Mistress

you notice a poisonous snake on her bed.

As a butler, they should know what to do.

The Mistress just woke up and a snake is on her bed.

What should I do?

In this level, the Mistress and the five judges

will observe your method through the monitor

and give you a score.

Let the competition begin.

Oh no! Mistress is not wearing any clothes.

I must close my eyes but how will I catch the snake?

Good!

Mistress, please put on your nightgown.

Thank you.

This level requires him to not be indecent

and to get rid of the snake quickly

without harming the master.

If the butler doesn't know real martial arts or have skills

and only have luck

the master will be hurt.

Bing Shi is really a top class butler.

Good!

Very good.

I cannot admit defeat and let the Mistress down.

What should I do?

Mistress, please don't worry.

My back is facing you and my eyes are shut.

Here.

Mistress, breakfast is ready.

You may change. I'll go outside.

Okay... Both sides have finished.

Please give your score.

Ke Lao Fu, Ling Qi Sa was bitten by a snake to protect his master.

- What are we going to do? - Mistress.

Our rescue team is tending to him now.

Are you sure there won't be problems?

We set up the snakes, of course we have a treatment for it.

Please do not worry.

Okay. The test for today is over.

Everyone please announce the winner.

Please raise your signs!

Bing Shi!

[Sa]

Yes!

It's useless for you to vote for Ling Qi Sa.

Four beats two. Bing Shi wins.

None of your business!

Head Butler Ke, reply if you hear this. Over.

This is Head Butler Ke. Please speak. Over.

Emergency medical treatment is useless. Patient has lost all signs of life.

I repeat, patient has lost all signs of life. Over.

Okay. Then just let him sleep.

Keep trying to save him. I'm heading over.

Mistress!

Since treatment isn't working, prepare the MED (medical emergency defibrillator).

Increase the number of joules.

Charge!

- Clear. - Clear!

Patient's heart still isn't beating.

Let's try the MED again.

Charge.

- Clear. - Clear!

- Clear. - Clear!

Xiao Sa!

Patient's heartbeat has returned.

Bing Shi, Bing Shi!

You did great. You were very handsome. So amazing.

- So great! - Team Leader.

What happened just then?

He didn't let go of the snake, so a lot of poison entered his body

We gave him the serum, but his body didn't have time to react

before his heart stopped beating.

How about now? Is the poison treated?

His condition is stable now

but it is quite strange.

What?

We didn't treat the poison.

It was as if his body created its own antidote.

Like I said, he's amazing!

You should send him to our hospital so he can be examined.

- So that his health is insured. - Stretcher.

One. Two. Go.

Maria, go with them.

Why is Maria going with Xiao Sa?

I'm going to make the arrangements at the hospital so he can receive better care.

Okay.

Maria, if there's no problem then send him home.

There's no need to take him back here.

Yes.

- Who said you can do that? - Mistress.

Ling Qi Sa lost just now.

That's not true.

Quickly take him to the hospital. Don't delay.

Bring him back here when he gets better.

Yes, ma'am.

Mistress, if I'm not mistaken the score was four to two.

According to the rules, you should fire Ling Qi Sa.

Ke Lao Fu, I don't understand why you do unnecessary things.

Mistress, what are you trying to say?

Mu Rong Bing Shi is excellent.

But...

Butler Mu Rong, if I give you ten times your present wage

are you willing to become my butler?

Xiao Zhi, you can't steal my butler.

I…

I'll get mad at you.

Young master, don't worry.

That will not happen.

Loyalty is my pride.

That's great!

A professional butler won't switch families.

Since he can't serve me, winning means nothing.

I still have to look for my butler.

Judges, based on how Ling Qi Sa sacrificed himself

to protect his master and his loyalty

if you think he's qualified to be my butler, please raise your hand.

Thank you.

You already made your decision.

You were going to keep him whether he wins or loses.

Mistress, I cannot allow a stranger to stay beside you.

The five judges have already approved so he is qualified to be my butler.

You...

Okay.

It'll be best... if he can be your butler.

What are you trying to say?

Miss Maria, What are you doing here?

I need to ask you about something.

- Are we there? - Not yet.

I just said that I have to ask you something.

Please ask.

To be frank, I don't trust you.

Even though you seem honest now

and sincere when you rescued the Mistress.

I'm sincere.

Perhaps, but I'm uncertain if you approached the Mistress because of money.

At first, I did want to kidnap her.

I can understand why you don't trust me.

But I swear that the person I am now is devoted to protecting her.

Why?

Why do you want to protect her?

Do you like her?

No, it is not like that.

It's because...

she's my savior.

You're the one that saved her.

I first met the Mistress

on the most miserable night of my life.

My parents ran away after leaving me with a NT$550,000,000 debt.

They abandoned me with debt collectors chasing after me.

At that moment, I became a demon.

I wanted to kidnap the Mistress to pay the debt.

But the Mistress forgave me

and even offered me a job.

It's not that she forgave you.

She misunderstood you.

That night, if I didn't run into the Mistress

my life would definitely be worse.

So I decided that no matter what I'll always protect the Mistress.

What if you're something other than her butler?

Not as her butler

but as her lover.

Then she would definitely clear your debt, right?

If I only wanted to pay back my debt

and pretend to have feelings for the Mistress

then that's not love

just a trade.

Isn't it just using my love in exchange for cash?

I can't do something so despicable.

Xiao Sa, I'm sorry.

We now know how you truly feel about the Mistress.

So we can't let you stay beside her.

- Why? - You don't need to know.

What are you doing? Let go!

You're the one that wants to harm her!

Who are 'we'?

You and Head Butler Ke, right?

The Mistress trusts you, yet you want to hurt her!

I think you should worry about yourself first.

What can you do to me?

Let go.

What are we doing here?

You only have two options now.

One, I'll put your parents' letter in your pocket

and then push you off the cliff.

Everyone would think that your parent's debt forced you to commit suicide.

Don't you feel shameful?

Shameful? This is called unscrupulous.

Understood?

Despicable.

Okay, I'll give you a better option.

What option?

We'll pay off your debt.

Stay beside the Mistress while following our orders.

You want me to hurt her with you?

That sounds too serious.

We just want to get what we deserve.

You are shameless.

So what is your decision?

Aren't you afraid I'll tell the Mistress?

As if she'll believe you.

Oh yes, I forgot to tell you.

You don't need to worry about your worthless parents' whereabouts.

What are you going to do to my parents?

Let go.

Look at your current situation.

You can still worry about your parents?

Honestly, I don't believe you dare to do anything to me.

What are you doing?

Why are you killing innocent people? He was part of your team.

You should believe what I say

or else my next target won't be from my team.

I didn't know you were like this.

Please choose, or do you need another minute?

I don't need to think about it! Just push me off!

I won't help you hurt the Mistress!

Aren't you afraid of dying?

Honestly, I'm very scared.

But I don't want to hurt the Mistress

so I'll have to die.

All right. Then I'll send you off.

Xiao Sa, is this the 'bus' you were talking about?

Yes. You've never been on one?

I've never been on one, but I saw one on TV before.

Since we are riding the bus we should pay our bus fee.

Start the bus.

If I'm unhappy, I'll send you gasoline and a match.

Match. A match!

Time has move on.

I've something modern.

- Mister, who are you? - Maria.
