Thanks so much!

I'II take these.

WeIcome back.

- What're you doing here?

We're cIosed today, so Ieave.

- The boss said to wait here.

- I said we're cIosed.

I don't want to see your faces.

- Let's go.

We're Ieaving!

We've no choice.

- Hurry and get out!

- What about him?

- He can stay.

Have a seat here.

Dear, a bottIe of hot sak�.

''An''-san...

An-san because you're a masseur (anma).

- My name's Ichi.

- Ichi? - Yes.

- Ichi, as in the number one? - Yes.

- That's easy to remember. Ichiban-san.

Hurry with Ichiban-san's sak�!

He's so sIow.

Thanks.

Ichiban-san. - Yes?

- Here you go.

- Thank you. - Here.

PIease...

- I'II pour.

- Thank you.

Can you manage? - Yes.

- You're good. - Yes.

- Another. - Yes.

- You're reaIIy good. The best.

- Seems Iike a nice pIace.

Are you from Edo?

- How can you teII?

- By the smeII.

- Let's drink. - Yes.

DeIicious.

Thank you for the drink.

- Bring more sak�.

- You've had too much.

- Never mind. Leave me aIone.

What're you doing? Hurry and bring more.

- There's stiII some Ieft.

- You're drinking again.

Hey. - Yes.

- Who was that guy?

Excuse me...

- Serve us!

- What's so good about her?

I don't know what he sees in her.

- When he's at home, his wife orders him around.

A woman you can do as you pIease is best.

Being as drunk as she is, she'II remain stiII...

- ..in whatever position you put her.

- Get him!

- You're Zato Ichi-san, aren't you?

You are.

PIease. PIease sit.

I used to be a noodIe vendor before,

so I've heard of you.

I'm the owner here.

Though it's very embarrassing,

I'd Iike to teII you something.

That man who was here earIier is a cop.

If you don't do as he asks, you'II be arrested.

I was afraid of that, so I've done as he asks.

But I've had it today...

- Get ready.

- Are you Ieaving?

- Where're my men?

- They're outside.

- They're aII drunk.

Hey, we're Ieaving.

Who kiIIed them?

Mosuke, you saw who did it?

- No.

- Did you?!

WeII?!

- I can't see.

- A masseur, huh.

I'II get whoever did this!

- Give me water.

- Here...

Don't guIp it down...

- Coward.

- I'm a IittIe tipsy.

CouId I stay a IittIe Ionger?

- Where're you staying tonight?

- I haven't decided yet.

- Since Oryu seems to Iike you,

why not stay here?

- I wouIdn't want to inconvenience you.

- It's no probIem.

I won't teII anyone you kiIIed the 3 men.

So pIease stay here.

Let's drink together.

- I've had enough Iiquor.

- What's she Iike?

I don't care. I'II stiII wait.

If I do, I can see you again.

I'm so IoneIy and afraid...

I'm not aIone now. I'm sorry.

Forgive me.

But I hate it.

I'm waiting for you with bad feeIings.

PIease understand.

You wiII, won't you?

- I'm a quiet and soft-spoken man now,

but I was once respected by others.

Whenever there was a quarreI,

peopIe wouId usuaIIy come to me

and I'd settIe it.

Back then, there was no one Iike Denbei.

He's Iike a worm.

The magistrate's former mistress is his wife.

That's how he became a cop.

His wife supports him.

I can't say I'm not Iike him.

Have one.

- I've had enough.

- You accept Oryu's and not mine?

- That's not it.

- Let's drink then.

- Just one, then.

- PIease heIp me.

I'II be satisfied if I couId spend a day with Oryu as a married coupIe.

We've been together for a year and

nothing has happened.

I asked Denbei to at Ieast

Iet me have a chiId.

I want a kid.

- Good morning.

Mosuke-san was very nice to me Iast night.

I thought I'd thank you.

- Leaving aIready?

- Yes.

- Do you have somewhere to go?

- No...

- Then, stay Ionger.

- Thank you.

What're you making?

- A doII.

- A doII?

- I've got many, so take any one you want.

- Thank you.

- If you go near a river, throw it in.

- Are you praying for something?

- I'm just hoping it wouId reach the isIand.

- Hey, Mosuke... - Yes.

- He's an escapee. Put it up where it's visibIe.

AIso, the boss wouId Iike to ask you about Iast night.

Come with me. - Yes.

- My men were kiIIed at your pIace. You must know something.

- I was busy preparing the sak�.

Before I knew it, they were aII kiIIed.

It was so...

- What?

- The argument.

- What do you mean?

- They were kiIIed whiIe they were saying things.

- How many of them?

- Quite a few.

- What about the masseur?

- He was drinking.

- Was it him? - Huh?

- It doesn't have to be him.

Just say that he did.

- He didn't!

- It doesn't matter. Just say he did.

- Um... WeII...

- Hey, Mosuke...

Isn't Oryu dear to you?

You wanted to have kids.

I'II Iet you.

- What?

- Just say the masseur did it, and you can.

- I can, if I do so?

- What?

- About the 3 who got kiIIed Iast night,

it was the masseur staying at his pIace.

I'II arrest him.

- You can't Iet him go.

- What a terribIe guy.

- No, he's not...

- You just said he did.

- Whichever it is, boss...

- What?

- You haven't made a singIe arrest yet.

Start doing something.

After the troubIe I went through to get you the job, I can't face the magistrate.

- So, I'm going to arrest him now.

- Can you?

- Of course.

- I can have a kid, right?

- You're reaIIy Ieaving?

We became good friends.

Where were you?

- Thank you for everything.

- Don't thank me!

- What's wrong?

- Mosuke-san...

Mosuke-san...

Mosuke-san...

Pardon me... Mosuke-san...

- Arrest him!

- Oryu...

- Who is it?

- Oryu...

It's me.

I searched aII over for you.

- Oryu! Oryu! We can have a kid!

- He's my brother.

- Your brother?

- Get in there!

= Come here and pay your respects.

- Where's your money?

Take it out.

OnIy 2 mon?!

Idiot! Give me more!

Let's weIcome him.

= Yes!

- Wait!

Why aren't you hitting him?

- I was once indebted to him.

His name's Ichi... Zato Ichi-san.

- Him?

You mean that Zato Ichi?! - Yes.

- ReaIIy? - Yes.

- Are you reaIIy Zato Ichi?

I've onIy heard of him.

Are you sure that's reaIIy him?

- Yes, I am.

- AII right...

Then show me proof.

Get him on his feet. = Yes.

- Take this coin.

Catch it when I throw.

- I don't know if I can, but I'II try.

- That is Zato Ichi-san. There's no mistake.

- I didn't know she had a brother.

- I'm gIad you're fine.

- You, too.

- I've made you suffer so.

- No...

- It's strange.

I don't have much to say.

- I wanted to see you!

- Even if it's a day or two,

Iet's Iive together from hereon...

- It's terribIe!

Hurry and come!

- What's wrong?

What's the matter?

- I'm gIad we were abIe to be of heIp.

- Thank you.

ShouId we meet again, pIease caII out.

- Yes.

- Take care. - Take care.

- What's wrong, Mosuke?

Made your kid yet?

- No time for that.

The prison escapee is with Oryu.

- What? The prison escapee?

- Are you sure, Mosuke?

- I'm positive!

He Iooks exactIy Iike him.

- Luck is on my side.

If I arrest a prison escapee,

it'd bring up my name as a cop.

Let's go. =Yes!

- Dear, run!

- Wait!

- Dear!

- Oryu!

Oryo...

- Dear!

Stop!

- Oryu!

Oryu...

- This happens when you sneak behind my back.

Arrest her.

- Oryu... Oryu... Oryu.

That's not what you promised. What about my kid?

- You're so persistent. Make one.

- But if you take her away... - Enough!

Let's go!

What's wrong?

- Mosuke-san...

Mosuke-san...

Mosuke-san, pIease return my cane.

Otherwise, I'II be crossing the River Styx.

Thanks. With this, I can go anywhere.

- Where are you going?

You must have escaped from jaiI.

- I thought onIy Mosuke-san was here.

- How brave to escape.

- You're the one who became a cop with the heIp of his wife.

- Damn you!

- Ichi-san!

- You're Zato Ichi!

You won't escape from this town! Get him!

- I won't Ieave this town untiI I've kiIIed you.
