Godspeed Page #4

the looks on my wife

and mother-in-law's faces

Those expressions

Were nasty

I thought

I'd comfort them

So I said It's fine

It'll be our number soon

My wife

Giving a dirty look

Said to me

We've finished eating

And waited for you a long time

We've finished eating

And waited for you here a long time

A long time

I saw that

They weren't holding anything

Didn't order me

Any carry-out

Nothing

I was stunned

Didn't know what to say

I said

Oh

Oh

Wait another minute

I'll fetch the car to pick you up

You know what my wife said?

No need

We can call a taxi

Mom Let's go

Forward

What's that supposed to mean?

I drive a taxi

I drive a taxi

She said that, my wife said that

What did she mean ride a taxi home?

I don't remember

if I ate anything that day

I kept driving until dawn

F***

Young Boss

Today thank you for helping me

Make a decision today

If I live past today

Tomorrow I'll definitely

go eat steamed dumplings

Old Xu

Look around

See if there's a toolbox

Check if there's a screwdriver

Seems like there's

something under my foot

Kick it over

Hurry

Can't reach it

Don't kick so hard

How do you kick this thing?

Young Boss

Young Boss

If we die here

Will they think

We were lovers committing suicide?

Hey

This is your new phone

Don't go back to Taipei yet,

find someplace and sit tight

For how long?

I don't know

I'll tell you when it's time

Are you okay?

Should be okay

What does that mean?

My thigh hurts

Get that checked out somewhere

If you were shot

Absolutely do not go to a hospital

Then where do I go?

Find a small clinic

I'll contact you later

Ahh

Wait

Move a little farther

Move a little farther

Go in

Go in

Careful, your blood

Don't get it on my leather chair

Young boss

I'm telling you this ahead of time

If we go to a hospital later

And they have to operate

Surgery, whatever

I don't have money to pay

I'll take you back to Taipei now

You're on your own after that

Take me back to Taipei?

Why not just send me to

the First Funeral Parlor

You mean the Second Funeral Parlor

Why the Second?

The First is for big shots

For bodies who are somebody

You're a body who's a nobody

They'll send you straight to Second

F***

Hurry up and take me somewhere

with a doctor

My boss told me not to go to hospitals

If they find out those

are gunshot wounds

They could report to the cops

If not hospitals, then where?

How should I know?

Find a pharmacy, get me bandages

for the bleeding

If it gets worse, I'll figure something out

What if the doctor says we need

to amputate?

What the hell?

I keep turning and turning, there's no exit

It's like a maze here

There's no street signs or anything

I keep getting lost, can't find the way

They should shoot a horror movie here

How'd we arrive at this kind of place?

Who's gonna talk first?

Motherf***er,

what'd you drag us out here for?

Is this fun to you?

Playing hero?

Bastard

If you have the guts,

kill me with one shot

I'm the one who

f***ing fixed Brother Tuo

The f***ing bowling

Training for the f***ing World Cup?

I'm telling you, don't mess with me

I know a Thai guy

He has a custom when taking care

of his enemies

He does two things

The first

is to wear a helmet

The second

ls to put their throats between

a pair of scissors

Look at my neck

He gave me this scar last time

I was in Thailand

But I pulled through

Now he's friends with me

If you can pull through this too

Maybe even we can be friends

Ah Wen

Even though I hated you in the past

Every time I met Brother Tuo

I wanted to tell him

To keep an eye out for you

But I didn't want

to talk sh*t about others

in front of my friend

You killed my friend

Who said you could do that?

You might still have a chance,

depending on what you say

If I talk

I'll have no chance

Brother Wen

Sorry

I'm warning you genuinely not to move

I mean it

Brother Wen

Don't move

Brother Wen, are you all right?

We're not finished yet

I'm done bullshitting with you

You don't talk

And you'll die

I won't kill you with one shot

I'll saw your head in two

Ah Wen

Who is it?

Red Eye

Or someone else

It's Red Eye

Red Eye says

When this sh*t's finished

Give me Brother Tuo's share

He says he'll come talk to you

As long as business can continue

Everyone should have no problem

I know everyone calls you Endless Ash

You're always happy

When you can smoke a cigarette

to the very end

Without the ash breaking

Ah Wen

Here's a cigarette

Smoke it

If the ash doesn't break

I'll spare you

Ah Wen

You better smoke this one good

And be careful

Don't make this

the last cigarette you ever smoke

I don't care what bullshit befalls

you after this

Don't send me your obituary

I know you won't die a good death

I furthermore know

That after you die

Even if all 23 million people

of Taiwan pray for you

You'll never reincarnate

Young man

This looks to be a gunshot wound

Most hospitals would report

this to the cops

But here

The police won't give a damn if cats

or dogs get shot

You're lucky

the bullet only grazed you only

The bullet didn't lodge inside

If it was stuck inside

We might

Have to operate

If it was lodged too deep

Near an artery

I wouldn't be able to do anything

This medicine won't have problems,

right?

What problems would there be?

Cats and dogs

Are they not also flesh and blood?

What problems would there be?

When I'm hurt, I use this medicine too

There's no problem with

different body types?

No

As long as you don't give dog medicine

to humans orally

For wounds, it's not so bad

I'll give you antibiotics in a minute

Didn't you say dog medicine

is different from humans?

Antibiotics aren't so bad

Okay

Doctor

How much is the total?

Oh

There's a standard fee for pets

For humans

I don't know

How about 1500?

So expensive

That's not expensive

A dog would be charged more

For a dog as big as you

Do you take health insurance?

Health insurance?

Dogs don't have jobs,

why would they have insurance?

This is a pet hospital

Old Xu

Old Xu

Old Xu

What?

Do you have money?

The medical bill's 1500

Isn't it 150NT to see a doctor?

They don't take health insurance

Got everything with you?

Don't let that touch water

Didn't your father teach you

to carry money when you go out?

He left the day I was born

Back then, my mom left me this photo

And told me it was my dad

Were you sick as a kid?

No

This man

ls tall and handsome

Doesn't look at all like he's your dad

Today

Since morning,

I've only eaten a steamed bun

Haven't had a drop of water

Money's gone now, too

It's no problem

Anyway, money's meant to be spent

I know you're no angel

But, really, I believe

It doesn't matter if someone's

had a bad past

What's most important

ls afterwards

To be a good person

Live in peace

Whatever you do,

don't take some guy's f***ing picture

And say

It's your dad

Hey

How was the doctor?

Just a scratch

Listen to me

Turn around right now
