Story One
A Story of The Buried Gasoline

Honey. Cigarette.

Good morning.

Ah! You are having Breakfast.
Is it natto?

A dish of hot rice and natto,
it's the best meal.

Professor, this is Kawai Y�z�.

How do you do?

Hello. Is it true that you buried drums
in that field?

Yes, I am sure.
It was me who buried them.

However, as it was
the last day of the war

and as it was completely dark, and...

Stop it!
Don't be so weak hearted.

My wife in Tokyo
sent me a letter.

She asked me not to bother
her relatives here.

Is it all right?

Certainly. I got a permission from the
police and it is completely legal.

What should we do with such an
amount of gasoline?

Well... I will get 20% or 50% of them.
Then, I'll go driving with my car.

I can get enough gasoline
for my lighter.

No, no! It's 460 of drums.
It's not just for your lighter.

Kawai! If you find them,

you will find
a nice woman soon, so cheer you up!

Yes. I'll do my best.

Then, after your breakfast, we will leave.
We wait for you over there.

Hello. I was waiting for you.

Hello, Mr. Yamazaki.

This is Mr. Yamazaki.
The owner of this orchard.

This is professor Ishinaka.

Professor Ishinaka, welcome.

Thanks.

Moyoko!

Thanks for the last time.

I was waiting for you.

I brought you a cream which you asked.

Thank you. You are so kind, Mr. Kawai.

Then, Professor...

"For Professor Ishinaka's Party:
Do Not Enter Without Permission."

Kawai! It's your turn.
Where should we dig?

Well...I'm sot sure, because this
area completely changed.

Are you sure that it is around here?

Yes. Under the direction
of General Sato,

60 soldiers worked together to bury
the drums, but as it was long time ago...

Don't be weak hearted.
By the last examination,

we found that it ought
to be around here...

Yes, you have to
try harder with your nose.

You have a good nose and it looks good.

Is it here?

No, I don't think so.

Is it here?

I'm not sure.

Is it there?

Maybe yes, maybe not.

Kawai, is it here?

It smells!

Is it gasoline?

No, it's the manure.

Ah, I manured the field this morning.

Mr. Yamazaki.
Why did you do that?

It disturbs Kawai's sense of smell.
He cannot smell the gasoline any more.

Is it so strong?

Anyway, professor, please try here.

Then...

It is the noise of metal.

Yes, it was like " Gachan!"

Your nose works well.

Professor, then, we take over, as we need
to care not to break the drums.

We seem to be the
greedy in Hanasaka jij�' s story.

Please don't say that.
It's also a kind of metal.

We must not be far from them.

Kawai! Try with your nose again!

Are you sure that it was here?

Well...I'm not sure...

Don't be weak-minded.
Maybe, your nose is stuffed up.

Blow it with this!

Mr. Kawai!

Mr. Kawai. I put on my make up.

You look beautiful.

Really? Your cream spreads well.

I see.

Ho, hon.

You want to have lunch?
You must be tired. Let's...

Ah, Professor is there...

Yes, he is napping.

Ah, Professor is sleeping
just biting an apple...

Professor, Professor! Let's have lunch.
We have sake, too.

Here...

Professor, I met you today
for the first time,

but my cousin Kido says that
he knows you very well.

Kido? I don't remember.

He says that you'd fallen in love
with a girl in a circus.

Then, you skipped your classes to go to see
her in next town from school.

Because of that, you were suspended.

Yes, maybe...I don't remember.

The memories of youth.

Moyoko wants to show
you her dance.

She got the first prize at
the contest last year.

Really? I want to see it!

Moyoko! It was really good.
You are very talented.

Encore! Encore!
Professor, say "encore!"

Kawai seems to like her dance.

Professor, do you want more?

Your daughter is a nice girl.
Is she single?

Yes. If you know a
nice man, please...

I listen to you!

Freeze!

I'll kill you!

Freeze!

Hey!

I'm sorry.

I got you!

You tricked me!

Look at him, Professor!

As he is not used to digging,
he was tired.

Me, too. I swung a pick only three times,
but I have a pain in my back.

Professor, if you want,
I'll take your turn.

By you alone?

You are not used
to digging the field,

so you get too tired.

I am not greedy enough
to monopolize the gasoline.

If I find it,
I'll let you know

So, please tell Mr. Nakamura
that you'll leave the job to me.

Well...I can do that, but...

Please. As I appreciate
that you came here,

I'll give you two boxes of apples.

But, I...

It's all right.

But, Mr. Yamazaki. Mr. Nakamura
will be all right,

but I don't know what
Kawai will say.

He will be all right.
As he seems to like my daughter,

if he wants,
he can marry her.

If so,
I'll invite you for the ceremony.

I've already read a love story
by Professor Ishinaka.

To me, you are more beautiful that any
other women in his love stories.

Really?

He will think so, too.

I though that Professor Hironaka
would be different,

someone more intellectual.

When he was young,
he was suspended from school,

because of a girl in a circus.

In a circus?
He doesn't seem to be cultivated.

No, he doesn't.

She will marry Kawai with
460 drums of gasoline.

Mr. Kawai. Is it true that you
buried drums in our field?

As my father is greedy,
he is really happy about that.

Well...maybe yes, maybe not...

I don't understand.

I don't know, neither.

It means, it is not true that
you buried them in our field?

It sounds true and doesn't.
I'm confused.

Moyoko, I'm sorry, but I told a lie.

A lie?

Yes.

You are a bad man.

Moyoko, it's all because of you.

Last month, when we came
to examine the field around here,

he forced me to smell something
with my nose and I was too tired.

Then, I saw you taking
care of apples on the rudder.

Yes, I was there.
I wore a hat.

Yes, you did. Then,
I asked to you to give me an apple,

because I was so thirsty.
Then, you kindly gave me 3 or 4.

No, it was 5.

Yes, it was 5. I though you were
vivid and kind.

I thought you looked
honest and nice.

Yes, I am honest and I normally
cannot tell a lie.

But, I fell in love with you..
Do you forgive my feeling?

So, you lied to us.

Professor, you listened.

Unfortunately, my ear
works better than your nose.

I apologize.

So, it was also a lie
that you buried the drums?

Yes, Professor. Just because
they began to talk about the drums and

they says that it was me who buried them,
so, I pretended to...

So, you are pretended again.

I'm sorry.

Professor,
don't scold him anymore.

You are nasty, too. I don't
need the drums anymore.

I understand why
you pretended to lie.

Moyoko, really?
I appreciate you.

Ah, Professor.
Did you find the drums?

No, no one is working anymore.
Do you want to dig again?

No, it's enough.
I'm not suited for the job.

Maybe, we should leave
it to Mr.Yamazaki.

That's a good idea.
Let's ask him.

Professor, Kawai
fell in love with his daughter.

Do you see it, too?

Sure! Maybe,
we looked for another thing.

Ah, Mr. Nakamura.
You woke up!

Mr. Yamazaki, we would like
to leave the job for you.

Yes, it must be better for you, too.
I'll dig little by little.

If I find them,
I'll let you know.

Yes, please. By the way,
where is Kawai?

A young man is good
with a young girl.

Professor, please come to the
wedding ceremony as a match maker.

Yes. You want to see a
little grandchild as soon as possible,

Even if you don't
find the gasoline,

if you will have a little grandchild,
and you would be happy.

You are right.
If I have a little grandchild,

I'll certainly find the gasoline,
too!

Here you go.

I am disappointed that we
didn't find the gasoline.

But, it was a fine day.
We had a fun.

There are two guys
who didn't have fun.

I'm sorry.

Please don't tell today's
story to my wife.

Certainly. We were
all greedy.

Story Two: Story of an Argument.

Is it 50 yes?

No, it's 60 yen.

O.K.

Ah, Mr. Kihara. Here...

What's?

Please take a look at this...

It's disgusting. Now,
they send them to countryside, too.

It's regrettable.

Yes, it is. Even though
police cannot stop it,

we don't want to show
it to young people.

Yes. As we have
young boys and girls.

It's great.

No, don't look!

Woman's body?
It is not dirty.

By the way, they gave me two free tickets
to ask me put it in my shop.

What should I do with
these dirty tickets.

It's too dirty for me
even to touch them.

Should I tear them up?

Tear?

Well...

Mr. Yamada,
don't waste things.

We have to try to make use of
things which seem useless.

If we don't try this way,
it won't be easy to reconstruct Japan.

If you destroy them, that will give
a negative symbol to young people

or of improvement of public morals,
the poison becomes the medicine.

Don�t you think so?

You are right. So, you
think we should be examiners.

Yes I do.
You are an intelligent man.

But, these dirty tickets
are for today's show.

I'm free today.

Me, too.

What time?

At one o'clock...

Did it hit you?

Don't be angry at me!
Please give it to me!

I'm home.

I'm hungry.

I cooked sweet potatoes.

Yes?

Where is dad?

I was waiting for you
to talk about that.

He went to see the
nude show with Mr. Kihara.

With Sh�ichi?

No, with his father.

Why did you let him go?

Because they were
discussing going together.

I'm tired of him.

If I said something, Mr. Kihara would
have an argument with him.

So, I didn't say anything.
Your father tried to tear the tickets,

but Mr. Kihara asked him to keep them
and to go to see it together.

Is that so? I didn't know that Mr. Kihara
was such an immature person,

though he seems serious.
My father, too. I hate it.

Me, too. It's a
humiliation for us.

I want to ask him
not to do it again.

We have to do something
to let him know better.

I have an idea. I'll ask
as announcement in the theater like

" Master of Yamada Bookstore at Hamamachi Street! Please come to the entrance!"

What do you think?
He will realize what he did.

It's not a good idea.
It will be a shame for our family.

I have another idea.
At the end of the show,

you wait for your father at the
entrance saying nothing.

He won't go again.

It's a good idea.

You are nasty.
Normally, you are kind, though.

Because I have lived with
him such a long time.

Women are physically weak
and not talkative,

but if we know how to deal with gossip,
it's not difficult to control men.

I'll go with Sh�ichi.

It's a good idea. If you marry him,
you have to call his father "Father."

Hello.
38, please.

Hello, Sh�ichi.
It's Mariko.

Your father and mine
are doing something terrible.

No, it's not
an argument.

Anyway, it's a terrible thing.

Please come here by bike,
right now. All right?

"Sports Shop of Aomori Prefecture,
Hirosaki Brunch."

Does it hurt?
The shoe had a metal buckle.

They are foolish. Why do we have
to punish our parents! That's backwards.

Yes, it is,
but when you get older,

you would want to see the
nudie show, wouldn't you?

When I get older, naked women
would be nothing special for me.

So, you will see
nude shows often?

No, that's backward.
If women naked is not special,

I would want to
see women in Kimono.

I'll wait for him at the entrance
and when he is ashamed of himself,

I'll ask him to buy a grey dress for me.
Last time when I asked him,

he didn't buy it to me.
But, today, ha cannot say no.

Then, it will be exactly
�killing two bird with ONE stone.�

Sh�ichi, please come with me.

Should I say something
along with you?

It's up to you. But, if you want to ask
him to buy something, you can ask it.

Well... what should I ask him...

How about a suit?

Too expensive.

Why not?

Well...how about the shoes.

No, a suit is better. It's to let him know how
stupid they are, so, shoes are not enough.

All right. We will let him know well
...all right. It's a suit.

It will be a very expensive
nude show.

I'll choose your suit.

Yes.

It's perfect. Five to three.

It's full!
It's popular, isn't it?

What are you looking at?

How come, they can
rise the legs like that?

You, too? If you want
to see it, go ahead!

I have to ask
him to buy a suit.

The poster
was an exaggeration.

I wanted to see a little more of
the beauty of naked women.

No, it was too much for me.

I got to go.

Let's have a smoke.

Professor Ohashi, too!

He is an artisan of tatami.

He is vice-president of the train station.

Mr. Kanaki, too.

All men are somehow similar.

Ah, Nomura's father, too.

Hello, Mr. Nomura.
Was it good?

I heard that it was something
like Kabuki, but it was awful...

It was better than Kabuki
for you, wasn't it?

No way!
As I work at a public bath,

I've already seen hundreds of women nude.
Your fathers were there, too.

They were at the front and
gazed at the show.

At the front!
It's so humiliating.

It must be your father
who got the seats at the front.

No, It must be your father.

Ah, they are coming!

I was disappointed that you came
to such an embarrassing place.

Mr. Kihara, too.

If you buy me a suit for me,
I won't tell it to mother.

No way. I heard that it was a
show given by a famous singer.

We came to listen to his show. But, it
was not as expected and it was so boring.

We were always napping,
weren't we?

Mr. Nomura said that you were
at the front and gazing at the show.

Gazed? No way!

No, he told a lie.

Mr. Nomura though it was Kabuki.

All audience thought it something
different from a nude show.

As Mr. Yamada asked me
to come with him,

by saying that he had two free tickets,
it was just for the curiosity...

No way! I said that I would tear them.
It was you...

No, you just pretended.
As I'm kind, I helped you go.

It was you who said
not to tear them up.

No, it was you who were immature.

Immature? It was you! I saw you were
licking your lips during the show!

I saw you looked between
the legs of dancers.

You said that you should
have brought a telescope!

Stop it!
They are looking at you.

Anyway, you shouldn't
be so generous to others.

Sh�ichi, so, you think it was
my father who asked your kind father.

No, but it's not important
who asked first.

Yes, it is important.
I believe my father.

I absolutely believe my father.

I also believe my father.

Do what you want. My father
is not such a stupid person.

My father, neither.

Don't belittle my father.

They are my words.

No, they are mine.

They are mine.

No way. I won't talk to you anymore.
Father, let's go, go!

Father, you
shouldn't be ashamed.

I'm not ashamed.

Why don't you have
a coffee with me?

No, I don't like coffee.

So, how about beer?
Anyway, I'll pay. Let's go.

All right, anything will do.

It's the first time I have had
a beer with you in a bar.

Is it?

If we have too much,
could you pay?

Yes, but do you
come here often?

Not often, but with friends.

Don't drink too much.

Please believe me. I believe you.
It's not bad to see a nude show,

but just tell me the truth.
Who asked to go first?

Certainly, it was him.

Are you sure?

Yes, I am.

If so, I have things to do.

What?

His daughter, Mariko, she is a
little cheeky. Don't you think?

She is vivid.

Should I hit her?

Don't be violent. You cannot
be violent to weak people.

I won't talk to her
until she apologize to me.

But, you shouldn't do that.
It's between us.

But, I have to.
One more, please.

Yes.

Isn't that too much?

I'm all right, but
can you pay here?

Here.

Yes, sure.

So, as I left with you,
I could see this strange argument.

I missed something.

Don't laugh.
If it's between us, it's all right,

but our children are involved.

I don't know what to do,
because they are very stubborn.

I see.

So, I was wondering whether you have
any ideas to reconcile our children.

My daughter has so
much respect for you.

So, she will listen to you.

So, I have an important role.

By the way,
you and Kihara, who asked first?

It's certainly was Mr. Kihara.

I was not interested
in it at all.

It sounds strange, but until now,
I'd never seen that kind of thing.

So, when he proposed,
I was tempted

... I actually my wife's...

Mr. Yamada.
You don't need to be too honest.

Yes.

You can go home if you want.

You usually go to another bar?

I'll go at Mr. Yamada's place.

To reconcile with her?

No, I left my bike there.
I'm not the kind to forgive easily.

You are right.
You shouldn't be too soft.

(Nebuta a famous summer festival at Aomori)

Where is my bike....?

They are exactly the same.

The dirty one is yours.

The tire is not full.

Where is a pump...
pump...

I don't want to talk
to you,

but as it is business,
I will talk to you.

This is a book which your
father bought today.

Please give it to him.

Hummmm.
"Exercise by Azuma's method."

It's 70 yen!
It's expensive!

It's not expensive!

Yes it is!

You are drunk.

Yes, I drank
a beer with my father.

He is kind. At first,
I intended to pay for him,

but after all,
it was he who paid.

So, you didn't ask for a suit?

I can't ask for everything at once.

You are coward.
I'll certainly ask him for a grey dress.

You have to be brave. If you decide
something, you have to accomplish it.

So, I will not speak
to you again.

As you like.

Will you talk to me, again?

To whom?

To me!

If you don't talk to me,
I won't talk to you, either.

Hmmm. I see.

It happened, because your father
was interested in the nude show.

They called it a fraud.

I won't talk to you until your
father apologizes to us.

That is what I have to say. I'd ask
someone to judge who is right.

You can write a
novel with this story.

Yes.

Professor, don't do that. I'm so
ashamed. Please excuse me.

Good Evening.

Hello.

Good Evening.

Professor, it's Kihara.

Sh�ichi?

No, it's his father.

Please let him come in.

I don't want to see him.
Can I go to next room?

Yes, go ahead.

Please.

Sorry, it's late.

No, it's all right.

I saw you at
the unusual show.

He asked me to go with him,
even though I didn't want to.

After that,
there was trouble, wasn't there?

Who said that?

Everyone knows it.

It must be the master of
bookshop who told it to everyone.

Don't be upset.

I cannot forgive him.
For me, it's all right.

I don't mind not
talking with him forever.

But, I don't know
what to do,

because our children are
involved in this argument.

I see.
So, its' backwards.

They won't be reconciled
if you two continue to disagree.

If he apologizes to me,
I'll think about that.

You shouldn't be too stubborn.

Yes, I should.

Good Evening

We have many visitors, tonight.

It must be Mariko.
I don't want to see her.

Professor, can I go to next room?

Yes, go ahead.

Ah!

Ah! It's you.

You said that it was my fault!
You are nasty.

Did you over hear
our conversation?!

Shi!

Good evening, Professor.

Good evening.

Good evening, Professor.

Are we disturbing you?

No.

Professor, please judge us.

Judge? Like baseball?

Yes, please judge whether
it is strike or ball.

I cannot play baseball.

Professor, my father
and Mariko's father are...

They got into an argument,
didn't they?

Someone had told you already?

A rumour spreads quickly.

I'm so ashamed. It's because they
went to see the nudie show.

Professor, it's not a good thing, is it?

I'll go to see it tomorrow.

Ah...

I'll sit at the front.

Professor, watch
out for the dancer's shoes.

It will hurt,
if I'm hit by a dancer's shoe?

It sure will.
They have metal buckles

They might do it on purpose.
So, I don't won't sit at the front.

Professor,
I can lend you a telescope.

You took over your
parents' arguments, didn't you?

We had no choice.

I heard that you are arguing who asked
first, but that's not important.

Yes it is.

She says she won't talk to me until
my father apologizes to them,

even though she
talks to herself a lot.

It was you who talked
to yourself first.

As my father is stubborn,
he won't apologize

and he doesn't have
any reason to apologize.

My father, either.

You shouldn't say anything about
your parents' argument.

Your fathers must regret
that they involved you.

They must be ashamed and
want to hide behind the door.

By the way, Mariko,
I will write a novel about this event.

Are you all right about that?

So, I want to ask you something,
are you seriously fighting with him?

Yes, I'm serious to a certain point.

Until a certain point.? So, I want
to ask you another question,

you don't love him anymore?

Don't you love him?

...Yes, I love him.

So, how much do you love him?

How much?

Please tell me clearly.
This much?

Or this much?
Or this much?

Tell me,
how much?

This much.

It's good. And you?

Me? For me,
it's this much.

Professor,
if they are a little wiser,

even this much,
they won't have a problem.

Yes, that it.

It's a beautiful moon.

I'm very happy.

But, I'm not at ease,
if he writes a novel about us.

I'm all right.

I can announce my feeling
to you through the radio.

So, who asked first?

Yes...

It's not important.

It was troublesome.

It means that it was not for us,
the old men, doesn't it?

It was enough for me.

For me, it was this much.

Story Three: A Story of Carriage of Hay

Hello, Yoshiko.

Hello. I'm going to the
hospital to see my sister.

Is she in the hospital?
Take care of your sister.

Yes. Thank you.

Hello, Yoshiko.
What did you bring to me?

Eggs, potatoes and rice.

We asked him to read our palm.
Why don't you ask him.

He seems a good palmistry.

This is my sister.
Please read her palm .

No, I'm not...

You two have the very similar palm.
Her palms are also very clear.

Yes, yes...

What?

Your palm says you will see n
whom you will marry very soon.

Very soon? When is it?

It must be today or tomorrow.

No!

You became beautiful recently.
Did you come with someone young?

I came here by myself.

Will you marry soon?

Don't say such
a stupid thing.

I don't believe the palmistry.

It won't be true.

It's always true what he says.

I don't know.
I'll go to see a movie.

Will you give me a little money?

As your husband entrusts you with all
of his money, you are rich, aren't you?

Yes, he does.

So, how much
will you give me?

I'll give you 50 yen.

You should give me 100 yen for the things
which I brought you today.

50 yen, it's enough.

100 yen.

No, you have to be careful of yourself.

Here!

Here you go.

Ramen, please.

Yes.

Are you all right for tomorrow?

Yes, I am. Just go there, isn't it?

It's not enough.

And talk, right?

But, the adults say
the truth when they are drunk.

He is a nice guy.
He is friendly and young...

Are you leaving?

Yes.

You can get home
before it gets dark.

Yes. I'll come again.

Please take care of yourself.
Don't get someone stupid.

Now, is the most
important time of your life.

You are teasing me,
because you have a husband.

I'll find a nicer man
than your husband and

I'll give birth to a boy,
not a girl like you.

Yes, you can. Twin or triple,
if you want.

I think n with heavy mustache
will be good for you,

A man with a
heavy mustache is kind.

Hello.

Why didn't
you come earlier

Did you forget your wife?
even though I felt lonely.

I came yesterday.
Don't be upset when someone is here.

Katsuko, be kind to
your husband.

Hello, Yoshiko.

Hello, Takichi. Give me a ride.

Sure.

Takichi, is it true that a man a
with heavy mustache is kind?

Yes, it is.

Takichi is late, isn't he?
Here did he go?

He went to the association.
I'm sleepy.

It's tiresome to go to town.

Ah, I'm sleepy.
I am going to sleep.

Who are you?
Why am I...? Where is it?

Why am I...?
Where am I?

Ah, did you park this in
front of the restaurant?

So, I mistook...

I am going home.
I am going home...

I'm from Iwaki village.
I must go home, I am going home...

No, way.
You are a young woman.

You cannot go back there by yourself.
It's too late.

If you are lost, what will you do?
You can stay here.

I can give you a lift later and I'll explain
to your parents, so, please come in.

I'll stay here.

I was really sleepy.

As soon as
I went up to the top of carriage,

I fell asleep and I didn't even
know that it was moving.

But I was lucky.

Why?

If it was a different carriage, it wouldn't
have been comfortable like here.

Is it so comfortable to you?

Yes...I don't think it is the first time
for me to come here.

It really looks like my house.

I would be able to walk around
without problem even at night

Teisaku is taking
a bath for a long time.

Could you go to see him?
We are waiting for him.

Brother, are you still there?
We are waiting for you to eat.

Brother, why does she laugh like that?

My son, Teisaku, too.

He is kind to us
and takes care of his brother.

He is a really good son,
so I think we are lucky, too.

Then, since spring, we have been
looking for a woman for him.

When I saw you on the carriage,
I though he had found a woman.

What did you do to your jaw?

Do you need a bandage?

Now, let's eat! We got hungry,
didn't we?

Please eat a lot!

Thanks.

This rice is very good!

I cannot cook rice like this.

Do you cook with rice cooker?

Yes, I do.

Do you put something
heavy on the cover?

No.

You have to put something on it,
so as to not boil over.

If it boil's over,
it won't taste good.

I see.

To make a fire, you don't
need to use a lot of wood.

You can put the rice cooker
just at the top of the small fire.

That's enough. By this way, you don't
need a lot of wood to cook good rice.

Yes, I got it.

Teisaku, you have to eat more.

We are having nothing special.

If I knew you were coming,
I could have bought fish.

It's only God who knew it.

This pickled radish is very good.

I made it two years ago.
It might be too salty.

No, it's even sweet.

Will you have more?

How much do you eat usually?

Two bowls and half.

No kidding!
You have to eat more.

Actually, three and half.

It's normal for your age.
You've never been sick, have you?

No.

You look very healthy.
You must have already had many proposals.

I don't know.

Brother, let's finish
quickly and go to the dance.

That's a good idea.
Why don't you take her with you?

You can go with him.
You can trust him.

Your brother is not talkative.

No, he isn't.

Doesn't he speak?

What?

He doesn't speak even
when he wants to speak?

No.

Teisaku, is she your girlfriend?

Go away!

Takichi was looking for you.

Takichi?

Yes, you have
to go to see him.

Is this way?

Yes.

Teisaku, I will pay for you later.

You shit!

Takichi! Where are you? Takichi!

You will never talk to me, will you?

You can hear everything, though.

But, you began to laugh.
It's better than before.

If you want to think
that I'm mute, you can.

You speak nothing special.

It's troublesome to speak sometimes.

I though you were mute,
even though you are young.

So, I was sorry for you.

Brother, Brother!

Man B: Hey, Kihachi, where is she from?

She is from Iwaki village.

She came to marry you?

I don't know.
Ask my brother!

Ask his brother?

Ah, she laughs really loudly.

Every time she laughs,
my brother gazes at her.

KihachI don't know why my brother
doesn't speak, when he is with women.

It is good.

Yah.

If you are not mute,
tell me something!

Kihachi....

It's all right. He can do
what he wants to do.

But, it is for him...

According to a palmistry, I'll see
a man whom I'll marry .

Today at the hospital, a palm reader
told me so. It's funny, isn't it?

If it's so, I can read your palm.
I will be able to read it.

Even if only by your face,
I can tell you your personality.

Is it?

Sure.

But you thought I was mute.

Everyone makes a mistake.
Show me your face.

Look at me!
Show me!

You are interesting, even though
you look stern. Your face....

Yes?

Don't look at me like that.
It's strange.

It's from my birth.

You are someone who
doesn't speak like a mute,

but you are kind and respect
your parents

and you look after
your younger brother.

Yes...

Then, I will find
you a wife this year.

I see. She laughs very loudly.

Teisaku, Go ahead! Go ahead!
Don't show us off!

Who are you? Come here!
I'll kill you!

It's good.
Will you come to my house?

Really? Then, I'll tell my family that
you are not mute.

I wanted to take
you to your place,

but I'm too busy to
take you home today.

But I cannot let you go by yourself
and I have to make a certificate

to prove that nothing
happened to your virginity.

So, I went to see a police officer
to ask him to come to my place.

Then, a professor who came to see him
also agreed to come

to write the certificate.

Thank you for coming.

Police Officer(P): He is a famous novelist.
He will write a story about you someday.

About me?

Well...I'm not sure.

...you look healthy.
Where are you from?

From Kanaishi in Iwaki village.

What's your name?

Kimura Yoshiko.

How old are you?

I'm 19.

Can you bring a
10 kg bag of rice?

I don't know,
but I don't like physical work.

You are lazy.
When will you get married?

I don't know.

Do you listen to your parents?

Not always.

You are a bad girl!

Why did you come here?

To see my sister in the Hospital.

Has she a woman's problem?

No, a kidney.

So, it hurts when she urinates.

You are a nice girl. I'll write a
certificate for you. Wait a minute.

Professor Ishinaka, could you write it?

No...

But you are a novelist, please.

But I don't know what to write.

Well.... Certificate. Kimura Yoshiko,
from Kanaishi in Iwaki village, 19 years old,

she was ...today is... 20...
On the 20th of this month,

she mistook a carriage and slept
on the carriage of Nagase Teisaku,

from Harago village...then,
she came to the Nagasawa�s house.

At that night, Teisaku�s mother protected
her virginity...it is most important...

Yes, she slept at my room.

Yes, so please write things
like that in your style.

Well... I, here, prove that she
has no problem with her virginity.

it's not easy...
I'll write exactly what you said.

Yes, please.

Yoshiko, it's really honourable thing that
Professor Ishinaka writes a certificate for you.

Last night, you went to see
dance with her, didn't you?

Did you do something to her?

No..

Even her hands?

Did you touch her hands?
Yes or no?

You held her hands,
didn't you?

It was me who held his hands.

You did?

When we were talking,
everyone made fun of us,

so I was so surprised
and I clung to him.

P: I see. I accept that.
That's it?

Then, he held me.

P: Held?
Where?

Here.

There. So, it's an accident.
I accept. That's it? O.K.

We don't need to write
that in the certificate

because it's nothing to
do with her virginity.

I've done.

His mother paid attention to her virginity
and slept in a room with her.

It's in colloquial style. Thus is proof
that Yoshiko kept her virginity.

Thank you very much.

We have to take care
of women's virginity.

Your family is very nice.

Why don't you speak to me?

Shall we sing?

Yes.

Thank you for everything.

I am going home.
I am going home.

Come to see me again.

Yes, you too come to see me.

Yes.

You promise?

I promise.

Please promise by fingers.

Don't do that!

I began to speak like you
.... Then, good bye.

She went home?

Professor, it must be
strange to ask you, but...

What?

Is it a good thing to fall in
love by at first sight?

Certainly. I think you
should take her to her house.

That's it?

End.
