Let the Bullets Fly Page #6
Come out! Stand up!
Who have you been seeing lately?
Master Huang?
Don't move! Raise your legs.
- Who's there? - A boy, my child!
- Your child? - Yes, mine.
You're a child?
- How old are you? - Eight!
Come out!
He's eight?
I find it hard to believe myself!
As tall as Mom when he was three.
Taller than me when he was five...
Screw you!
Mom, mom!
Screw you!
Hands off my boy!
- Screw you! - Screw you, too!
Screw you!
She's your mother?
Yes, she is.
And he's your dad?
None of your goddamned business.
Stop it!
Ma'am, what's going on?
I come for money. I won't leave until he pays.
He owes you?
It was eight years ago in Shanxi.
This crook made me pregnant.
He is a man of poor repute.
Ran up a mountain of debts,
then vanished without trace.
Creditors kidnapped my younger son.
He'll die if I don't clear his debts.
He's not my child!
He is!
- He isn't. - He is!
He is! I counted the days!
He swindled someone.
His victims tracked you down,
and kidnapped your younger son.
Threatening death...
Yes, so I need the money.
Pay her.
Money! The stones...
Just a small gift,
to mark our acquaintance.
I don't want these. I want real money.
You stupid idiot...
These diamonds are worth a fortune!
No kidding?
Bicycle!
I can ride that?
We rode one once in Shanghai.
You have been to Shanghai?
Pudong!
I'm sure you'd fall over.
Come on. Try it.
Hop on!
Let's go!
Bicycle!
Bicycle!
Made of flesh and bones...
Have I come to the wrong place?
Or at the wrong time?
Serve your customers.
They're my customers.
We're here first.
Have they paid?
The "bicycle ride" doesn't count.
Show them out.
But I've paid my dues.
With What?
Money you received through the window?
Isn't that bandit money?
I wonder if they are also bandits.
No, they work for the Governor.
How dare you pay their tab with bandit money?
Cut the crap! Let her go!
White knights to the rescue!
White knights to the rescue!
I'm no damsel in distress.
They're no knights in shining armour.
After all, they're customers.
I've already settled their bills.
You taught me yourself,
customers are always supreme!
Isn't that right?
Yes!
Correct!
Instead of knights coming to your rescue,
they are being saved by a damsel.
You're turning into a Mata Hari.
You've just pissed him off.
He doesn't need to be pissed off.
If he wants you dead,
you die!
I should've put a bullet through his head.
That would be the end of it.
Don't be silly.
Chief wants to go after his fortune.
If you're here for the money, then...
why are you giving it away?
Is this the right colour?
Lower the umbrella.
The red is fine. Come over here!
First apply green, then red.
Okay, got it.
Understand?
Don't forget to lock up.
- Bring the shovels. - Got it.
- Six shovels! - Got it.
Chief, how do I look?
Hair is fine. Face is flushed. Come here...
Apply that to a dead man's face
will turn it into pinkish red.
- Got it. - Good.
Green.
Come here.
Green is the base colour.
Add that and you'll get this!
- Oh, I see... - Got it?
You want shovels like these?
Shorten them and put them in the bag.
How short?
Short enough for the bag.
Hurry up! Six shovels!
Where are you going?
What's with the make-up?
Are you leaving for good?
Come with us to give out money?
No, what a waste!
- So you're not coming? - No.
Now listen.
This time, I may come back,
but, then again, I may not.
If I do, you can leave with us.
If not, you plan your own getaway.
Aren't you just giving out money?
Yes, we are.
By the way,
at midnight tonight,
someone may come calling.
Engage him in conversation.
Whatever the topics,
just chat along with him.
But...
you have to stay calm,
make it nice and slow.
You saw it with your own eyes?
Indeed.
You saw the Governor leading his men out?
Yes, with my own eyes.
They've gone to give out money?
Yes, indeed.
Which mask does he wear?
"Nine".
Splendid. Tonight we shall only kill!
Our target?
The Governor, wearing "Nine"!
Masked or not, consider this done!
All of you, put on your masks!
"Firefight with bandits,
intrepid Governor killed!"
That would be music to my ears!
Which mask is their leader wearing?
"Nine".
Let's all change to "four"!
Kill anyone who is not a "four"!
Which mask is their leader wearing?
"Four".
Know what we'll be wearing, then?
Got it.
Let's get rid of "Nine"!
Master Huang, what brings you here?
Can I not visit the magistracy?
Light in
When the cat prowls, the mouse seizes control!
Sit down!
Where's the Governor?
Everyone is a "Four"? I'm confused!
I'm confused, too!
It's bad to stay out in a thunderstorm.
Yes, it's awful.
Let's reschedule. Split!
Be in touch!
What now?
It's back to square one.
Yes, square one.
Split! 1, 2, 3.
Listen! Someone's been shot.
Soon someone will mourn.
Mourning will lead to confessions.
Confess!
You've at least three confessions to make.
I shouldn't have given your diamonds away.
Try again.
I suggested "to kill someone,
first destroy his soul".
Not that either.
We should have hosted the banquet instead.
The banquet?
I can't hear you.
I can't hear you!
There was a shoot-out.
Six killed. We're unscathed.
Counselor, come take a look.
Your saviour may be among them.
No, you are my Saviour.
If that is the case,
remove his mask,
and have a good look.
Come on, lights!
What's going on?
What's happening here?
It's Hu Wan!
Hu Wan?
How come it's Hu Wan?
This is weird!
All those wearing "four"
are my men!
Where are the bandits?
Where are they?
Hu Wan was a bandit!
He was one of them!
Murderers and kidnappers,
those who terrorised Goose Town,
were led by your own Hu Wan!
I wondered why you didn't fund the expedition.
You may even be the bandit chief himself!
You dare to turn your guns on me?
You dare to turn your guns on me?
Do you want a shoot-out?
Take a good look at a bandit's fate!
I'd still have him shot
if he was my father...
sooner or later!
You just shot Hu Wan 5 more times.
You want to show justice?
Or to make sure he's dead?
Only "Pocky" Zhang would want to silence him.
If you'd only wanted to show justice,
why not fund my expedition instead.
Done deal!
You shall receive a nice surprise in 3 days.
He was Hu Wan's boss.
Now he's your boss, too.
Please act as our interpreter.
What is a "nice surprise"'?
Interpret for me.
There's nothing to interpret
What on earth is a "nice surprise"?
It is what it is.
You just don't get it, do you?
Go ahead and interpret. What is it?
A nice surprise!
Translate for me!
What is this "nice surprise"'?
What is this goddamned "nice surprise"'?
What is this "nice surprise"'?
It means that in 3 days,
I'll put up $1.8 million for your campaign,
to fix my crippled leg!
Is that clear?
That's the "nice surprise"!
Interpret.
Interpret.
The nice surprise is that,
he will give you $1.8 million in 3 days,
to fund an expedition to fix his broken leg!
What a nice surprise!
