TO-PAN, TRILATERAL SLOPES

NOT THE ONLY ONE TATTOO SHOP, KYU-LAWN

Do you need me to recommend where to sit?

Thank you.

NOT THE ONLY ONE

Hello.

-You want a tattoo? -Yes.

There are catalogs over there. Have a look first.

No need. I brought a photo.

There's an extra charge for tattooing your picture.

Okay.

I want to tattoo his eyes on my body.

His eyes?

Yes.

Where do you want it tattooed?

Over my heart.

Can't do it.

Why not?

It's not complicated.

You drew this, right? It's pretty good.

I said I couldn't do it.

One thousand yuan.

Are you out of mind?

Is this your first time coming to this street?

This area used to be a colony.

They all look down on foreigners.

And you want one's eyes on your body.

I will add 500 yuan, okay?

I just want that when I look in the mirror,

he can also look me back in the mirror.

Leave your phone number. I'll call you when it's done.

Shen Xing.

What's your name?

My surname is Su.

See you next time, Ms. Su.

The first batch of goods

is almost ready.

Where is Mr. Cai?

In the Buddha hall.

I have called him several times but he didn't answer.

He didn't eat the meal that I took in there.

He knew the Buddha hall was on fire.

But when he really saw it with his own eyes,

not just him,

I also felt terrible.

Dan Tuo, go call him again.

What's the point? He won't answer anyway.

Let him have some time to himself.

Tuo.

You just said that the goods delivered to the mountain were ready.

Is there a problem?

No problem.

But we certainly can't offer them the same price as Jin Shikai does.

How much is that? Double the price?

Fourfold.

Fourfold?

The biggest drug trafficker

collapses just like that.

Kinchamba

wants to turn the Trilateral Slopes upside down.

-You see, he still… -Scrag.

I'll talk to Mr. Cai.

The Buddha hall was set on fire when he was alone watching the house.

I think he's a jinx, right?

Enough.

Mr. Cai.

You Chinese have a saying. "True gold

doesn't fear the test of fire." Right?

But why did this golden Buddha

melt on the surface?

Why? Is it because the fire was too big?

What happened that day?

I fell asleep that day.

And then,

by the time I woke up,

the fire here was so big that I couldn't put it out.

Only a foreigner was trying to put out the fire.

A foreigner?

Chinese?

No.

I don't know him.

He came here to teach as a volunteer.

Ever since the casino shut down,

those supplying water turned against us first,

and then someone wanted to kill you in your bedroom,

and now the Buddha hall was set on fire.

It must be Kinchamba who did all that.

It's all my fault.

If I hadn't reported the Blue-King Gamble House

and done everything without telling you,

Luan Basong wouldn't have aimed at us.

So you're saying this fire

was targeting you, right?

Then why didn't they burn you?

In such a large village,

they only burned the Buddha hall.

They wanted to trample

on my belief.

I've been thinking lately

maybe I'm not a man who can accomplish great things

or the right material for this.

How about

I just go back to supplying water?

I can't do

this job you gave me.

Are you still angry because I

let you take the blame for what happened to the casino?

Xing, you are a smart guy. You should know better.

I know.

I also know your way of doing things.

Besides,

I will never be angry at you.

At this time, the Trilateral Slopes

seem a bit unreal to me.

All those things and all those people.

A living person

died or disappeared just like that.

You make it seem like these things

only happen in the Trilateral Slopes,

and not anywhere else.

You can't escape from what is meant to happen.

Mr. Cai. We have brought back Laza's goods.

There are some things I need to tell you.

THE 9TH PROFESSIONAL SKILL CAMPUS COMPETITION

Tuo, what did Mr. Cai say?

He said even if Laza's goods are expensive,

we also need to get the supply chain going first.

We'll talk about other issues later.

Suo Wen, resume the first shipment.

Give them the goods for free and apologize if necessary.

Suo Wen says

that he will transport this batch of goods into the mountains right now.

You shall head back to Mopon first.

Check the current accounts and the external accounts.

Mr. Cai wants to see them.

Suo Wen.

Then what should I do?

We'll leave the country together tomorrow.

Laza's goods are costly, so we need to go to the surrounding areas to sell.

What about him? I don't want to go with him.

You go load up the truck for Suo Wen.

No way.

Scrag.

Mr. Cai consented to what I said.

I will supply water from now on.

I won't get in your way anymore.

Cleaver.

Scrag.

It's a good time for you to take a rest.

When we sort things out,

we will let you know.

Why did you come?

I said I couldn't finish it in a day or two.

NOT THE ONLY ONE

It looks pretty good.

It just doesn't look like his eyes.

I said I haven't finished yet.

In short, without these charges cleared, you can't leave the country.

-I think you're a good person. -He is a good person.

What makes a good person, and what makes a bad person?

Who can define it?

What happened to you?

You suddenly collapsed and it scared me.

I wanted to wake you up. Then you started to snore.

I didn't sleep all night.

I was exhausted.

Do you feel dizzy?

I just got up too quickly.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

You should place something with a strong smell here.

What do you mean?

The smell of adulterated drugs is sour when it burns.

Even if you grow flowers here, it can't cover the smell.

You don't look like a drug addict.

You can leave if you don't want the tattoo.

I have already raised the price.

-Of course I want that. -Then why do you want that?

Eyes on your body.

Eyes of a foreigner.

It doesn't make a difference whose eyes they are.

I just want to always have something

to remind me.

Remind you of what?

I'll come back in a couple of days.

NOT THE ONLY ONE

Tuo, it's all skewered.

Mix the pickled vegetables with this sticky rice

and deliver it to Mr. Cai.

He hasn't eaten for two days.

Sticky rice is not easy to digest though.

Just mix it up first.

I will make him something else for dinner.

Okay.

It's time to eat.

Let's start. Tuo, it looks pretty good.

Give it a taste.

Have a seat.

-Mr. Cai. -Mr. Cai.

-Where's Suo Wen? -Still in the mountains.

How long has he been gone?

Two days. Today is the third day.

Give me your phone.

I wish you good luck.

Has Suo Wen from To-pan delivered all the goods?

Suo Wen is dead.

Mr. Cai, I can go with you.

I am going into the mountains.

Take care of everything here.

I will bring Suo Wen back.

Banlan, that's it.

Taking on this kind of job

is no different to committing a crime.

Do you understand?

Are you police?

What can one drawing prove?

I am not police.

But I will

teach you a lesson for the police.

You wouldn't dare to shoot.

You Chinese people

advocate resolving disputes peacefully.

Right?

Try me by taking one more step forward.

A gun without bullets?

Banlan.

He's the one who wants the eyes of a foreigner tattoo.

Give it to me.

Who are they?

From the next street.

They've caused trouble many times.

Man.

I heard you spoke Chinese quite well.

Then you must know

President Chen of the Elephant and Dragon Chamber of Commerce.

If you want to cause trouble again,

you'd better ask around.

This store is owned by me.

I'm President Chen's man,

which means this store belongs to him.

You've picked the wrong person.

Banlan.

I think I've seen him at the Golden Green KTV.

He was hanging out with Liu Jincui.

Right, Liu Jincui.

If you see her next time,

say hello to her for me.

Well, this is really a misunderstanding.

Since it is a misunderstanding,

sorry about that.

Are you all right?

Let me take a look.

-You hand is red. -I am fine.

Su.

Why did you come down?

I was worried sick upstairs.

Su, are you okay?

I'm fine.

-Did they hurt you? -I am okay.

You broke the window, didn't you?

Sorry.

Sorry, Mr. Cai, I kept you waiting.

I wish you good luck.

What brings you to the Elephant and Dragon International Resort?

Recently,

I have been a bit perplexed.

So I came to you for advice.

We are friends, so don't say that.

Suo Wen was always the one who helped take the group photos.

This is the only photo of him.

And it was taken by accident.

Suo Wen had been walking mountains for so many years.

How could this happen?

Did he really offend the drug traffickers?

Tuo.

Don't you find that strange?

When Mr. Cai came down from the study,

he seemed to sense something had happened to Suo Wen.

I've never seen him like this.

Like you said,

everything is about to change.

Mr. Cai, I remember you can drink beer.

Let's get some beer.

Sure.

Mr. Cai.

Traditional Chinese physician says

when it gets cold,

people should actually drink something cold.

I am just afraid

that this table

won't be big enough to place more photos.

NOT THE ONLY ONE TATTOO STORE

Go on in.

Take off your shoes, get on the bed and fix it properly.

Do you know why Su's gun

had no bullets?

No.

Because I have all the bullets.

Only when they find me,

will these bullets be really needed.

Why are you afraid that they find you?

Is it because

you owe too much money for these things?

Are you really working for President Chen?

-No. -No?

Then you're quite something.

You lied as if it was true.

Can you lift your arm a little?

You're pressing on the record.

Is it really okay to put the record here?

What exactly do you do?

I'm a driver.

Deliver goods. Supply water.

I know about supplying water.

You deal with drug traffickers?

Just taking them some food and drink.

I've heard recently

there is a new kind of good stuff.

It's pink.

They say it's pretty amazing.

Is that true?

Perhaps.

Don't ask me about drugs. I know nothing about them.

You'll have to make do for tonight.

I'll go buy glass for you tomorrow morning.

You…

Why do you want to leave in such a hurry?

Can't you stay and chat with me?

Fine.

Have you read all these books?

So many movie posters.

You drew these yourself, didn't you?

Su drew them?

She drew them when we first took over the store.

Look.

Ziying.

This is me

My name is Zhao Ziying.

It quite resembles you.

I thought her name Su was another character.

No, it's the "Su" that means pleasurable in Chinese.

Pretty good. You like reading books and watching movies.

I do everything in this cage.

Reading costs me the least to kill time.

These posters

are just for fun.

Actually, I haven't seen many of the movies.

Mainly because Su never has time to accompany me.

I don't want to watch them alone.

And after the DVD player broke, I couldn't watch them at all.

Then why don't you go out?

Is it that you can't?

No.

Nowhere in Kyu-lawn raises my interest enough to visit.

Don't come here anymore.

I'm not taking your order.

Why not?

You saw what happened today.

I don't want any more trouble.

Besides, my drawings didn't even look like him.

You should take it to some other place.

There are always tattoo shops run by Chinese people.

NOT THE ONLY ONE

There must be a reason, right?

When he moved the goods,

he stepped on the toy of the drug trafficker's son.

And then?

That's it.

Just because of a toy?

Just because he broke a toy?

Because he broke the toy of a drug trafficker's son.

So what?

Once something involves a drug trafficker,

we just have to endure it. Right?

Or what?

Take the guns and fight back?

Mr. Cai, I know it's childish to talk about revenge now.

But what can we do now?

At worst, we can stop supplying water.

At least whatever Naw Kham does has nothing to do with us.

I just wanted to discuss this with you.

We still need to keep supplying water.

Are you crazy?

Why did you fire a gun in the middle of the night?

I set off fireworks.

What?

The custom of the Trilateral Slopes.

On the 12th day, we need to send the deceased away.

Su.

I remember

Lucky Blue died on Monday.

It was Jacky Blue that died on Monday.

Lucky Blue died last week.

Then what is that?

Seven Blue.

That is rather easy to remember.

People say

only one betta fish can be kept in a tank.

You insisted on keeping two.

This fish isn't cheap either.

How nice it would be if you spent this money on me.

I've already spent enough on you.

If you don't have it under control,

you will go mad sooner or later.

Is that so?

Don't you already have it under control?

Are two eggs okay?

Sure.

Bite it to death.

It's me.

Su.

Me.

I brought you some discs, as you have nothing better to do anyway.

Do you know what I really want to do?

What I really want to do…

What I really want to do is

to find him and yell at him,

"Why don't you just die?"

This is what I really want to do.

You can choose not to read these letters.

I have tried.

You can move.

What is this?

Drugs.

Where did they come from?

His anus.

He was already dead when we got to him.

The drugs burst in his body.

Normally, it's very dangerous to carry drugs inside the body

for more than 24 hours.

I gave it some thought again.

I still

want to get this tattoo,

and you have to be the one who do it.

I have said no.

Besides, I didn't draw it well.

NOT THE ONLY ONE TATTOO STORE

You want to tattoo him on your chest.

Why can't you bring him over here?

He's dead.

A lot of things happened

during this time.

I've also lost many friends,

Even if a drug trafficker shoots me right in front of me,

I can't do anything about it.

So?

So, I hope to have a pair of eyes watching over me,

and reminding me all the time

not to lose my true self.

Otherwise, a foolish foreigner like me

might really think I can change everything.

Tell me.

Do you hate drugs?

Stop rummaging. There's nothing to eat here.

Why are you here?

Why didn't you lock the door?

Don't need to.

There's nothing valuable in this house.

Sometimes that old man over there

comes over to grab some food.

You're the second one after him.

I am thirsty.

What are you doing here?

Nothing.

I passed by, so I came to check on you.

Your uncle's leg is almost healed, right?

Right.

You sound like you didn't meet him.

I heard

that one of Mr. Cai's men was dead.

He went into the mountains.

Is that true?

Yes. You are quite well-informed.

Actually, you can just get to the point.

I haven't been going there much recently.

Why?

Aren't you Mr. Cai's favorite?

Officer.

Is it because

I was his favorite at the beginning,

that you desperately wanted to keep me here?

All right.

Stop pretending.

You told me Bazi's charges against me haven't been cleared.

But you just wanted me to stay in the Trilateral Slopes

to take over my uncle's place

and be an informant, right?

You indeed are no fool.

You come to see me every now and then.

After just a few words, you started to ask what Mr. Cai has been up to recently.

Even if I was a fool,

I should have understood by now, right?

Or you've always suspected

that Mr. Cai has deeper ties with drug traffickers?

Let me put it this way.

You ask me questions.

There is no a single lie

in the answer I give.

Besides, I'm about to leave soon.

-I have no reason to lie to you. -You're leaving?

After I finishing supplying water

and pay off Mr. Cai's money,

I will get back to China.

So, Officer.

No matter what suspicions you have of Mr. Cai,

soon I won't be able to help you.

Still thirsty?

If not, you can leave.

I never thought you would leave.

But that's good.

The Trilateral Slopes is in chaos.

People run away if they can.

Xing.

If you want to leave, I definitely won't stop you.

But before you go,

could you do me a favor?

It's about Mr. Cai?

We all know if Mr. Cai just supplies water

and stays away from drugs,

we will leave him alone.

Naw Kham has been bullying at the Trilateral Slopes for so many years

and nobody dares to offend him.

But Luan Basong showed up, and the situation has changed.

Those who once clung to Naw Kham have all defected.

So he has lost most of his protection.

This is the best chance for the federal government

to take Naw Kham down along with his evil business.

So what?

Apart from the drug traffickers, only the ones who supply water

know where their lair is.

I'm fetching water.

Only the ones walking mountains know the drug traffickers' lair.

The man who died before

was the one who walked mountains, right?

So now this position

is vacant.

Do you think Mr. Cai will let you walk mountain?

Xing.

I know.

It's difficult.

But as long as

you can tell us the position,

I'll make sure you go back to China right away.

Long time no see.

Bye then.

Call me if anything comes up. I'm leaving.

You heard all of it?

You said

that you stayed in the Trilateral Slopes for us.

I believed you.

It turns out that you are an informant.

No, I haven't lied to you about this.

You've always been in touch with this police officer. I know that.

But To-pan always stays away from drugs. So we don't worry about that.

I just don't want him to use you as his informant.

Here is the thing. You heard what Jue Xintun said.

All that talk about walking mountains.

It's all his own thinking.

I didn't agree.

It doesn't matter whether you agree or not.

I'm the one who's going to walk mountains.

Next week.

As soon as I start to walk mountains, you can supply water.

Don't worry.

How about

we wait a bit longer?

Suo Wen just died.

Are you sure doing it this fast?

I've talked with Mr. Cai.

I'll give you my tasks of supplying water.

Hope you finish early.

So you can go back home early.

I came over just to tell you this.

Do you hate drugs?

If you hate them,

then you can draw it well.

Because painting it well…

It's also a form of defense.

Is it okay?

I'm hungry.

The meal is ready.

Let's eat together.

Eat this.

What happened to your hand?

It's nothing.

Having been at the Trilateral Slopes for so long,

I've eaten with someone else for the first time.

How long have you been here?

Tell him.

We came here in 2008.

We came from Landpley across a small, dirty river.

I was confused at the time.

We wanted to travel here.

And then she was really funny.

She told me it was so exciting that way.

You really should teach her

how to lie.

You'd better not go out.

There's a war on the Mokwel River.

It has already reached the outskirts of Kyu-lawn.

Don't go out if you don't have to.

No.

If Su doesn't go out,

who will resupply me?

Su.

You said you would take care of me, right?

Then how about this? Shen Xing.

Aren't you dealing with drug traffickers?

Help me.

The good stuff I told you about last time…

Ziying!

It's not that I don't want to help you.

I really can't.

I have never seen drugs myself.

In those films you brought last time,

there was one that was pretty good.

This one.

She Is Lonelier Than Fireworks.

I want to watch it again.

With you.

I don't know if you have the same feeling as I do.

It's that kind of feeling

between blood relatives.

They have their own freedom…

but can never cut ties.

Su.

Look at this photo. Can you help me do a face-forward portrait?

I am full.

I'll wait for you downstairs.

Once you're done, we'll start.

Okay.

All right?

I'll go buy some plastic wrap. Be right back.

Don't touch the tattoo and don't get it wet.

Su, come upstairs.

She just went out.

Then you come up.

What's wrong, Ziying?

Help me add some ice cubes.

They've all melted.

Come on.

I can't reach it.

Come closer to help me add them.

What are you doing?
