Chinese, anybody?

You son of a bitch!

Hey, what are you doing here?

Hey! What are you doing?

Ambulance! Ambulance!

Don't move! Don't move!

Ambulance!

Don't move! Don't move! Ambulance!

Who's the kid?

Is he a dragon's claw?

What did he say?

I don't know. He speaks the minnan dialect.

There's nothing.

You shouldn't play with my asshole.

You're a member, aren't you? You've been named.

I'll tell you on one condition.

What?

Do me.

- Phone? - Phone!

Yeah?

What gives?

Hey, Kai-no.

- I'm karino. - Kai-no?

Ka-ri-no! I keep telling you.

I want to hear good news once in a while.

News is he got nabbed.

About karino...

Yeah?

You dumped karino, and now he's with wang.

That's for the scag.

Get up! This isn't a dormitory!

That's not enough.

He's got to go.

You're not shielding him because you're both mixed-blood, are you?

Their eyes are so alike.

Indeed...

How is yoshihito?

The law firm drives him hard. He's always busy...

I'll be okay.

Son of Japanese orphan from China joins police academy.

Tatsuhito kiriya

dad. The lease for the house will be up by next week.

You only need to wait a bit longer.

Thank you.

If you don't tell me, what can I do?

It's unwarranted arrest and detention, isn't it?

Half of them are illegal immigrants.

So the rest can go, right?

An officer was killed.

So they're all suspects, the people you're holding here?

Under investigation.

Are you really telling me they're all suspects?

- Get off me! - Move it!

Don't touch me!

Mr. kishiwadal

what happened to you?

She fell.

Asshole!

Get her! Hold her back!

Let me go!

Hey! What are you doing here?

I've come to claim these people.

What? This is your brother who's the cop, is that right?

I see.

I'll be back so we can get to know each other.

See you.

Hey...

You seem to have your work cut out for you.

Listen... See you later, big brother.

Wolfsbane

Argh! He pisses me off!

- Oh, you're in. - Hey.

I ook at this. Look.

What happened to your face?

That cop's not getting away with it.

Calm down.

"When the mind is clear... Even the fire is cool." Right?

Silly bitch, see what you've done?

You're such an idiot.

"When... when the mind is clear...

"Even the fire... is cool."

I et's do it!

Do it! Do it! Let's do it, do it, do it! Quick. Let's do it. Let's do it.

I et's do it! Let's do it!

What a shitty thing for him to do.

Kill him for me, will you?

Kill him, please!

Please.

Six have been released.

Okay.

Book a car for tomorrow.

Certainly.

Yang, you have a visitor.

Get up. Do you hear me?

Who?

What?

One point!

He was an only child.

The officer who was killed.

Yeah.

Shinjuku isn't the best post.

Martyrdom gives you two ranks promotion,

and about 12 million yen compensation.

How can you be serious about being a decent cop?

What are you trying to say?

Nothing really.

Aren't you a little light?

The rate is now 60%.

You're making money from Chinese girls.

That's the way it is.

The yamane clan is behind me, you know? Don't mess with me.

The rate is now 60%.

You're making money from Chinese girls.

That's the way it is.

I've been involved in this business since black market days.

You have their passports so they do what they're told.

Take them somewhere else.

Nobody in shinjuku will touch them.

The rate is now 60%.

You're making money from Chinese girls. That's the way it is.

The rate is now 60%.

You're making money from Chinese girls.

That's the way it is.

You taiwanese rats!

The rate is now 60%.

You're making money from Chinese girls. That's the way it is.

He's about the same age as us.

Maybe so.

Come on.

- Let's go. - Yes.

Oh, karino.

The boss invites you both to dinner.

Mr. wang? Please follow me.

Maybe you don't understand Japanese...

Give me a break, Mr. ishizaka.

We're buddies, aren't we?

Brother?

Kiriya!

Is that human?

He's my older brother.

I had to do it, didn't I?

Yeah.

Look at this. His name is wang zhi-ming.

Born in Taiwan. 36 years old.

What's this?

A hospital in the village where he was born.

He funded the whole thing.

This is his record from Taiwan.

One conviction for murder.

But he fled the country.

There's no information since then,

until he appeared in shinjuku.

Thank you for yesterday.

Your brother must be worried.

Yes. He's a fine person.

We sometimes fight, though.

No one should ever come between brothers.

Talking about coming between brothers, what about the yamane gang?

There's no need to eliminate them, is there?

I et's use them where we can.

Shall I organize it?

I'll leave the hospital to you.

Yoshihito.

Been a long time, brother.

You've really come!

I told you I would, didn't 1?

Shall we go?

So this is what he's like these days.

They didn't have to do this on the day they're moving.

Don't get involved in dirty business.

Same to you.

Live long and look after them.

Tatsuhito!

Tatsuhito.

How do you work this thing?

I'll do it.

Yoshihito?

How is your daughter?

Please. I'll see you get the money later.

Please, help her.

Well, there's another party in the same position...

And they're offering 25 million yen.

You said 20 million.

You have to understand, this isn't being done legally.

You're taking an organ from another child and giving it to your daughter.

And that requires adequate compensation.

We also charge a 10% increment if she survives another 10 years.

So 30 million in total.

I see. I'll get it without fail.

Taiwan is it?

Yes, you escort the suspect.

Deliver him and come back immediately.

What do you mean?

Just take him and come back. That's all.

All right?

You heard me, right?

Good evening, this is lonely cherry.

Sorry I'm late.

Good evening, this is lonely cherry.

Sorry I'm late.

Are you happy with me?

Or would you prefer another girl?

I want you to send word to wang.

Who's that?

I've got something to say to wang.

I've never come across that name!

Do cops only investigate down there?

S&m will cost you extra!

- Leave yoshihito alone. - What?

Tell wang to leave him alone.

I'll use the back door, okay?

I don't want to go where karino's been.

Mr. kiriya?

I'm ko from Taipei city police.

Hello.

Thanks for your trouble.

Sign here please.

- Thanks. - Thank you.

Mr. ko?

Can you help me to find a hotel room?

- Have you been to Japan? - Me?

I've never been outside Taiwan.

How did you learn Japanese?

At the university.

Japanese, english, French, German.

If you need an interpreter, let me know. I'm cheap.

All right.

How far to zhang-long?

Two or three hours by car.

You know the hospital, don't you?

Wang zhi-ming fled the country at the age of 14 and hasn't been back.

So why did he need the hospital here if never comes back?

Oh, are you talking about the hospital in the newspaper?

What a load of nonsense!

It's just a publicity stunt to attract more patients.

So, people don't care about whatever he does in Japan...

Unfortunately, I've got to get back to work.

Enjoy Taipei's nightlife.

It's perfectly simple.

We want to do business with you.

We give you the information, and you find the clients.

You get 30%.

What's the business?

Organs.

Kidneys, marrow, corneas...

It starts from 20 million yen.

The price is up to you,

with no upper limit.

You get 30% of the gross.

I'd rather have your legs than your organs.

You should take better care of your hands.

Should we resume the conversation?

Taipei city police lung-shun branch

Hello, this is kiriya speaking.

Hello, can I speak to Mr. ko?

I only provide guided tours on weekday mornings.

Sightseeing will cost you extra.

They've been drugged.

You can get all sorts of drugs here.

Wang's father was also an addict.

His mother's gone missing.

Wang killed his father at the age of 14 and fled the country.

That's his only crime in Taiwan.

Let's go to the hospital.

Wang bought this old Japanese colonial building

and made it into a hospital.

It looks old, but it has all the latest facilities.

It appears to be a normal hospital, doesn't it?

I'm glad to have found such a good guide.

It was you who wanted to come here, after all...

Mr. huang long-ren.

We did some research on you.

A son of a Japanese war-orphan, left in China.

You went to Japan at the age of 16, using your father's family name "kiriya".

It must be a handicap for you.

I'll stay here tonight.

This is not the place for a Japanese tourist.

Yes, I've finished my duty, but...

The water's given me the runs.

I'm stuck on the toilet.

I can't say when.

Here it comes again. I'll call you later.

Farm life is beautiful, farm life is so beautiful

a busy Autumn passes then the winter follows

a full harvest and our work is done

farm life is beautiful, farm life is so beautiful

we are clothed and we are content

farm life is so beautiful...

I know that song, too.

Is it also sung on the mainland?

You have a family?

Yeah, both parents and a younger brother.

They're okay.

Okay?

My mother only speaks Chinese. She hasn't adapted to Japan.

Father is ill.

I'm going to make sure he becomes a lawyer.

He should lead a decent life.

Is that for you to decide?

Yes. It's for our family to decide.

I wish you luck.

You know...

My grandfather got killed in the war fighting as a Japanese soldier.

Shinjuku stamina drugs

Taiwan immigration bureau

he wanna talk with you.

Money.

These children entered the country two months ago,

and stayed in that hospital.

They tried to leave the country with fake passports, and were detained here.

Do you get it?

This was a kidney removal.

The kidney was sold.

Just one of the two kidneys can save another family.

Most clients are Japanese.

What are the police doing?

Nothing.

Some want to sell and some want to buy.

What can you say when both parties are pleased with the deal?

I heard you were very ill.

Did you have dysentery?

They thought I had cholera.

Read it.

Read out it loud.

"According to a report from the Taipei city police, lung-shan office,

"assistant police inspector tatsuhito kiriya of the shinjuku police

"conducted unauthorized investigations in Taiwan.

"Please take necessary measures to ensure such things do not happen again.

"Ministry of foreign affairs, Republic of China."

So... keep yourself out of trouble for a while.

Got it.

Do you want to get wang?

Dealing with the yakuza is no fun.

People are already talking.

Hello?

Hold on.

Kiriya, your mother.

Hello?

So, how can I help you?

Where's yoshihito?

I have no idea.

He left.

Where to?

Ask wang. Your brother is ungrateful.

Get off.

I said get off me.

Shall I call the police? The police?

A close friend.

To be close fo someone.

Shall we say it again?

What's your business here?

We're at peace, there's a truce.

There's no need for you to be here.

Okay, I'll be there.

Your colleague, kiriya, is half dead.

Are you coming?

I've got a little lady.

A quickie before work.

You guys are beasts.

Wang? This is uchida.

I have a cop called kiriya here. We could drop him in the sea.

Do you want to buy him?

Whatever you want to pay. His kidneys must be strong.

20,000 yen? Okay. Done. It's a done deal.

Take care of him.

Oh, right.

20,000 yen.

Oh, yeah, as promised. How could I have forgotten?

In he goes.

Don't touch yoshihito.

He's... my family.

In that shit-hole of a village...

On the coldest day, in the coldest winter...

We were kicked into a pig pen...

This is Japan, isn't it?

Yoshihito needs me and I accept him.

That's a bond.

It's time to learn just what you are.

An excellent organ bank.

What do you think?

Don't mention this to yoshihito.

Beautiful, isn't it?

How much?

It's priceless, as this was made-to-order.

Boss, all finished.

Time for you to go out and play.

Yes, sir.

Hey...

What kind of service does wang get?

Don't you understand Japanese?

I'll give this to you if you give me what I want.

Only if you give me what I want.

Don't laugh.

Does it taste good?

Wait. Just... just wait.

Put this into your mouth,

and bite... chew it up.

That's good. Good, good, good.

Use your tongue more.

I'm quick, aren't I? It always pleases my partners.

You...

Knife.

What did he say?

Kidney transplant applicants list

what is this?

This is the yamane gang's accounts.

There's a large discrepancy, isn't there?

So what?

So what... well?

The selling price of organs is a lot more than the yamane gang is reporting.

They're lying about the real selling price.

You've been cheated.

I don't mind a discrepancy of up to 40%.

That's about correct, isn't it?

Don't do anything silly...

I'm just trying to help you.

It's true.

Don't be alarmed.

A qift for you.

Mr. kishiwada.

You're not going to have an easy death.

Ishizaka.

Pus is coming out from my dick.

That ain't good.

Summer has come.

Definitely.

Yes.

He has become the right-hand man.

You mean 'left-hand man'.

What's so funny?

You're late, inspector shimada.

It's incredible.

Where are all the Chinese gone?

That's why you're here.

Where have they gone?

I don't know. Immigration hasn't moved in on them...

My lunch break is short. Can we make it snappy?

Hello, everybody!

Right on target.

What do you want?

Nice to see you again, boss.

And thank you for everything.

No need to fuss.

The dog that keeps walking around finds the bone.

You think?

Pearls before swine.

I'll be back the day after tomorrow.

Is it okay?

What?

Your dick.

Where is yoshihito?

Worry about yourself first.

The yamane gang has been taken apart.

Pretend to give in to wang.

No way.

Why?

I must take yoshihito home,

and make him forget... everything.

My father and mother are worried...

It was the first time I came without being high...

You're the first one.

It's a pity to waste it... your dick.

The wolfsbane's not flowering.

Wait till Autumn.

Do you want to poison someone?

No.

I'm stupid, so I'll die in a stupid way.

I don't like any sort of pain.

So if I lose all desire to live,

I'll just bite the plant's root.

That's sort of romantic.

Right. I'm off.

- Where are you going? - To find kiriya.

The heavens know the evil ways of men.

See you soon!

Can we?

Hey...

We can!

Hey! Can't we do it? Hey!

Do you have a shooter?

Herel

He's doped up to his eyeballs,

so he can't have gone too far.

Find him before wang comes back.

Huh? Just bring in his corpse if you have to!

Keep your voice down, Kai-no.

What did you say? Huh?

What do you...?

What?

Where's yoshihito?

Fill out a missing person's form.

Aren't you a policeman?

At the Chinese restaurant "kao shang",

wang's getting it on with him.

He might have been corn-holed by now.

You know what they say...

It takes a long time for a fruit to grow. You get it?

Kai-no!

I told you... it's karino.

Is wang here?

None of your business, brother.

Let's go home.

You've got it all wrong.

You know nothing.

You know absolutely nothing.

If you don't like the way I am, just kill me.

I'm only using wang.

Let me even things up.

Brother...

Dad?

It's me. It's tatsuhito.

I know it's a bit sudden, but yoshihito's taking the bullet train to visit you.

So please pick him up.

He may be sleeping, since he's very tired. Will you wake him?

He'll be on the kodama 29, in carriage number 11.

Right?

The second from the front.

You enter the store,

and take dried turtle, rock hard tonic and magic cream to the cashier,

then he'll let you in.

Where's your friend?

Coming.

Stay here until he comes.

I can't. I'm busy.

Mr. wang?

It's open.

One month later

Hey, let's go somewhere nice, okay?

Don't touch me!

- Skank! - Assholes!

How's the investigation going?

It's a tough one.

Wang had too many enemies.

Don't hold out.

Everybody's glad, actually. Doesn't matter what they say.

You did it, didn't you?

Me?

Why?

Where were you at the time wang died?

Why did you do it?

Your imagination is running away with you.

Fine.

You'll soon get an official notification.

Promotion.

Dad? It's me.

How are you?

I'm well. It looks like I'm being promoted.

Why? Because I've been working hard.

My salary"s going up too.

No use standing still.

I'm planning to buy a house.

A big one.

How's yoshihito?

He just acts like a kid sometimes. Tell him I said to calm down.

He'll see things straight when we're all together again.

How's mom?
