Cruel Restaurant

---

WARNING!

This film contains graphic violence.

I got it!

It's coming.

It must be a big one.

Body parts suddenly appeared.

It was shocking!

What?

I'm at Nakai Beach right now.

What?!

An interview?! Right now?!

Oh, Chief, stop it!

Eh? A dumpling restaurant?

Everyone's raving about their

Tougen Dumplings.

Yeah...

But there's something fishy going on.

Something's fishy?

Something's fishy?

Lower your voice.

Sorry.

Well? How does it taste?

Really delicious!

Really!

Give me yours if you don't want them.

How do they make these dumplings?

These dumplings...

The filling...

May I have a dish of dumplings?

Yes!

Sorry for making you wait!

CRUEL:

CRUEL RESTAURAN:

Hey...

Are you all right?

Of course not!

Well, what's the matter?

How can you ask that?!

How did the dumplings taste?

I've forgotten already.

I can hardly believe they'd use such meat...

as a filling.

Yeah, though I haven't got any evidence yet.

The cook in the restaurant must

have killed somebody.

Are you Mr. Chin of Tougen Restaurant?

Yes, I am. What's the matter?

What's inside the box?

Meat.

What kind of meat is it?

Who are you?

Are you in the restaurant business?

We are...

Who are you?

It doesn't taste as good as people say.

It's great! It's really nice. I've never eaten

anything as good as this. Right?

Yeah!

Really?

Welcome! Table for one?

Yes.

This way please.

Yes.

Please call me if you need anything.

May I have a dish of Tougen Dumplings?

Yes, sure, thank you!

A dish of Tougen Dumplings!

You next...

Stop it!

Don't mess with my restaurant.

Mr. Goro, are you okay?

Why didn't we tell him we're police detectives

and accuse him of interfering in

our investigation?

Hey!

What are these dumplings made of?

I'm a food columnist.

Don't try to fool me;

I'll see through your lies.

What is the filling in the dumplings?!

Is there some problem with the filling?

Of course not, it's just meat.

Don't lie to me!

Try it yourself!

Come on!

Hey!

Tell me now!

Hey!

Tell me now!

Hey, you!

What are you doing with my dumplings?

Is there some problem with the dumplings here?

You're trying to swindle me out

of my recipe, aren't you?

You don't need to pay! Get out!

Tougen Dumplings!

You'll regret this!

Out of my way!

Thank you, Mr. Chin.

It is my duty to protect you, Ms. Lin.

We're sorry for the disturbance.

Please accept my dumplings as an apology.

I'll get them for you immediately.

Sorry... Sorry...

Ms. Lin... well...

Dammit...

Ms. Masumoto!

I'm Shirizawa; I've interviewed you in the past.

I've forgotten about it.

I'm Shirizawa from Truth Magazine.

I've interviewed you in the past.

The topic was "Dinners of the Rich".

Are you writing a review of your own?

Is there some problem with the dumpling filling?

It's strange for a food columnist specializing

in high-class establishments

to visit a dumpling restaurant.

I guess you want to find out what kind of

tastes the public is fond of,

especially if it might mean we'd lose our jobs.

It may not be what you think.

No, I think that's it.

So, any problems?

My sister has been missing.

She disappeared after reviewing

that dumpling restaurant.

As my investigation continues, I'm finding that

restaurant increasingly suspicious.

What makes you say that?

They make the dumplings from the

corpses of people they kill.

You're joking.

My sister must have been killed

at that restaurant.

An arm was discovered at the beach.

Someone was murdered and

then dismembered.

We'll be very busy.

Ah! The waitress at the dumpling

restaurant is very pretty.

The number of people living near that

restaurant is shrinking fast.

We can't do anything without evidence.

He won't confess to it

even if we arrest him on other charges!

Let me go!

You're as impetuous as ever.

What do you want?

I want information.

She works at the Tougen Dumpling restaurant.

Do you think that restaurant is suspicious?

Do you know something about it?

I don't know.

Leave me alone.

Chief, the dumpling restaurant

is really suspicious.

The police have even started keeping

an eye on them.

I have some clues already.

An arm was found at the beach today,

possibly belonging to the sister of food

columnist Hoemi Masumoto.

Yeah...

Of course not, I didn't tell the police.

I'm ready, Ms. Lin.

I am going to try making the dumplings

with these meats today.

Please try one.

How is it?

It's not quite right.

I used three different kinds of pork

as well as thirty percent mutton.

Oh, yeah! The meat you brought me

last time was really good!

The meat I brought you?

Oh, I don't remember.

But...

Your Tougen Dumplings are

really good, Ms. Lin.

They could be better.

Master Hoi said...

"The taste of Tougen Dumplings has

changed over the generations."

I want to make it even better.

I've told you not to come here again, haven't I?

I'm not coming as a customer today,

but as the chef of Daisangen.

To be your apprentice!

No, please let me be your apprentice.

Why not?!

Do you want money?

I can give you money!

Get out!

It is not a matter of money!

Please let me apprentice here!

That's...

Those dumplings...

They smell really nice.

You can't cook anymore without your fingers.

You'll regret this soon.

Don't worry.

I was born in Tougen.

I will safeguard Tougen always.

If you want to succeed in the business

of Tougen Dumplings,

you must put more effort into

your cooking skills.

Listen, Ms. Lin.

If you want to make Tougen

Dumplings popular,

it is very important that you

practice your whole life.

Use your finest skills and the best ingredients

to reach the peak of culinary art!

The best ingredients...

Please! Please!

I won't change my mind no matter

how many times you beg.

No...

Then, let's solve it by force.

You won't accept me even when I beg.

Who the hell are you, bastard?!

You bastard, you ruined my plan.

I won't give up until you accept

me as an apprentice.

Are you okay?

Yes...

Thank you very much.

What are you doing?

I'm just going in the same direction as you.

You first, then.

I'm very interested in your dumplings.

Are you going to tell me

that you want to be my apprentice?

Is the scary-Iooking man your husband?

I'd better ask your husband directly.

I'm the boss.

Mr. Chin is my employee.

I asked you a question first.

Are you using any low-quality meats?

What happened to you, Ms. Lin?

Are you okay?

Mr. Chin...

A man just told me something strange.

Do you mean the one from Daisangen?

No...

So, who then?

No...

What did he say?

I don't even know him.

I was attacked by the man from Daisangen.

He rescued me.

You were attacked?!

Who?

Who attacked you?

I'm all right now.

But then...

Are you using any low-quality meats?

Have you killed anybody in the past?

And the dumpling filling you use...

We've never done it, right, Mr. Chin?

Of course not!

We've never done such things.

We don't have to.

You look very tired, Ms. Lin.

Why don't you rest today?

No, I'm fine.
