If you crave death within five minutes,

drink it all.

If you carry this, he can never take you

to the basement.

At least not alive.

It'll be my wedding gift to you.

It's more expensive than jewels.

Bring a girl to be my maid. One who could

disappear and not be missed.

If a bit dense, all the better.

We'll send her to a madhouse under my name.

I can find you a new maid,

but what do we do about Junko?

You really think I'm prettier than

Miss Hideko?

Sure, Hideko's pretty, and you're pretty.

What? You speak Korean?

You know...

I learned it.

To speak more easily with you.

I really wanted to say this to you.

You are just Mesmerising.

Oh my gosh!

You little tart!

I can't!

If they catch me with a guest,

I'll be thrown out!

Forget this wretched place.

Come live with me!

Oh, f***ing hell!

F***ing hell?

F***ing hell...

The Count sent exactly what I ordered.

Naive and a bit foolish.

Mother!

"Show Sookee your clothes

and jewellery at every opportunity.

"The material greed she got from her mother

will make her more gullible.

"P.S. Don't worry if she reads this letter,

she's totally illiterate."

Would you read it to me?

Pardon?

'Countess Fujiwara Hideko'

This is your name. Can't you read it?

What's with your foot?

Who did it?

Who took Tamako's shoe?

Apologise before all the servants!

If she ever runs away

because of one of you,

I'll strip you all naked

and throw you out!

F***ing hell.

All smooth.

You like the scent?

Want to come in?

Pardon?

No need to be ashamed at all.

Your average fence can

barely tell them apart.

Is that so?

"Returning the earrings you loaned me.

"A woman might wager her fate on

such an exquisite pair.

"I'm sure that Sookee

will try her very best

"in order to see herself wearing

these in the mirror.

"I'll tell you how to keep her

from getting suspicious.

"Keep her busy until the

day of the wedding.

"Make her spend all her energy

"on making you fall in love with me.

"In other words, don't fall in love

with me so easily."

Me'?

Dressed up, you look like a lady too.

How did your mum die?

That she was so lucky to

have you before dying.

That she had no regrets.

Is this the companionship

they write about in books?

Men are disgusting.

How can they be so single-minded?

What's on my mind?

You don't really believe that

I crave your body?

You do!

You read too many of those books.

If there's one thing I'm after, Miss...

It's not your eyes, your hands or ass,

it's your money, only that.

Of all that you have, money is the best.

Feels great being so rude to a noble lady.

What's with her?

Why does she stomp her feet,

expressing her anger,

sit up in the middle of the night and sigh?

Every time she sees the Count,

her eyes seem to say,

I despise you.

Try to bear it. Only if she sees this

will she believe the proposal.

Think of me as that puppet,

and I'll imagine another woman.

What woman?

The duchess Juliette.

Lady!

Milord!

Lady...

"The lady's emotions

lay deep inside...

"Jinlian could not

fathom their depths.

"Knowing this, Lady Sun

"gave Jinlian four small silver balls.

"These are 'minling',

or 'bells of passion.'

"Place two in the lady's Jade Gate,

"and the other two in yours.

"Spread your legs apart

"and like two scissors

"trying to cut each other,

put them together.

"When the lips below rub

against each another,

"you'll hear a clear ringing sound."

A blackout! Bring a lantern!

Yes, sir!

'The Sound of Bells on a Windless Night'

" 'When do I put

this in?' asked Jinlian."

"Does the lady breathe deeply

and swallow hard?

"Does she whisper sweetly in your ear,

"and kiss you?

"Does she embrace you tightly

"and caress your nipples?

"Does her secret part become slippery

"as she gently bites your shoulder?

"Then, put in the bells."

- Amazing!

- Indeed!

It's so cute.

If the Count sees this...

Will he really be so tender as this?

Of course.

And he'll touch you like this...

And like this...

Tamako, keep doing it.

Like the Count would.

The Count...

The Count...

He'll go crazy over this.

And this is what he'll say.

It's so soft, warm, wet, and...

's..s..spellbindingly beautiful!

Shall I teach you more, Miss?

Yes...

Teach me everything.

I wish that I had breast milk

so I could feed you.

Do you like it when I do this?

Do you like me?

Can you promise that you won't betray me?

I'll never...

never...

ever...

Miss, how could such an innocent...

You must be a natural.

Stop!

I spit it out without chewing!

All because of you!

She's got no one on this earth.

If you frighten her, she'll close up

hard as a clam.

You see?

If you don't give the impression

you want this marriage,

she may throw another fit

and refuse to go forward.

Be more convincing when

you pretend to love me.

I can't do it.

What?

I want to quit.

What's with you all today?

You feel sorry for her?

What is it with women?

You know what that poor Sookee

said about your Ladyship?

That you're too dense to get it

if someone pulls on your nipples.

That she was nice out of pity,

but you ate it up.

That you were so gullible!

That naive servant's face...

Yes... you will love him.

If I say that I love someone else...

Me, who has no one on this earth...

Do you still want me to marry him?

Yes.

Miss!

I wish I'd never been born.

I wish I'd never been born.

Let go.

Miss, I'm sorry!

Let go!

I'm sorry, Miss!

Don't die.

I'm sorry.

What are you sorry about?

I tried to trick you into

marrying that bastard.

I was going to put you in

a madhouse and run off.

Don't die. Don't get married, Miss!

Sookee, are you worried about me?

I'm worried about you.

How do you know my name?

You think you're tricking me?

You're the one being tricked.

You're the one bound for the madhouse.

I was going to lock you up in there

under my name,

then I'd become you and

run far away, with him.

I won't say sorry, since you tried

to trick me too.

That f***ing son of a b*tch!

Oh, sorry Miss!

"I hope this letter finds you well.

This is Sookee.

"I'm writing to inform you

of a change in plans.

"I decided to team up with the Lady Hideko.

"As such, I'm now in need of all your help.

"I'm enclosing an item as advance payment."

Always remember the basement.

Want to go somewhere nice?

You didn't teach me to read Japanese.

Did that bastard draw this?

Is this what you've been reading to

that dirty old man

and those gentlemen?

The daughter of a legendary thief,

who sewed winter coats

out of stolen purses.

Herself a thief, pickpocket, swindler.

The saviour who came to tear my life apart.

My Tamako.

My Sookee.

You scoundrel!

Let go of me, you filthy b*tches!

Miss!

Let go!

Miss!

I'm hungry.

The first month, I ordered

a slim herringbone suit.

The next month, I wore it to dine

at the Imperial Hotel.

'PART THREE'

Me, a colonial boy working

as a tout at a brothel.

Some Englishmen who frequented

the brothel recognised me.
