Power failure for

all trains!

Please wait

for a while!

We sincerely

apologize!

Please wait

for a while!

Power outage for

all trains!

North-bound ones

are out!

South-bound

broke down!

On top of this downpour,

all trains out of service!

Such a terrible downpour,

Professor!

You reckon?

Bet that cosmopolitan beauty

has today off from

a nearby bordello!

Beautiful snow-white skin

with alluring hair and neckline!

Quite a vamp!

Bet poison

got to her brain.

A beauty

brought to her ruin.

What a pity!

Such rumors being whispered

in the background while

a man stares in the direction of

the forest of Kanda Shrine in this rainstorm.

Sokichi.

Study hard there.

The woman who is being rumored about is

sitting inside the stuffy waiting room.

She too stares in the

direction of the forest.

Wait!

Don't do anything rash!

Running away like that!

Seriously!

Miss,

come back with us.

Watch it!

Get lost,

you loser!

Damn it!

He drew his sword!

Guys, take her!

Quick!

Come, Miss Osen.

Let's go back.

They're no threat!

Forget about them.

Come back home with me.

Alright?

Excuse me, sir?

Sir?

Oh,

thank you.

TRADITIONAL ART OFFICE

Home, sweet home, eh?

Osen?

Why so grumpy?

Making me

your prey again, huh?

Hold your temper.

Listen to your man.

Trick them

nicely and fully.

We need all the money

we can get.

It's starting to

get out of hand.

I'll go buy some time

with the client.

Once we get the money,

Amaya,

you play the antique dealer.

Got it?

Who's this

little stripling?

Oh this?

Just some stray dog

Miss Osen brought back.

Move it!

You dumbo!

She's a rare find!

A true beauty!

She's very happy to

have found favor with you.

As I mentioned before,

the client is

in Sendai.

It could be

Taiwan or Hokkaido,

as long as

the money is right.

That's all!

It all comes down

to money.

You see,

my sister here

worked in Sukiyacho

entertaining guests just until recently.

Please take this.

When may I come

to take her?

She'll be going so far away,

so I'd like to show

my little sister

a bit of Tokyo.

Nah,

don't worry.

I'll bring her

within a few days.

You surely introduced me to

a terrible person!

What's this?

Something wrong?

Trusted Kumazawa

with the scroll.

I can hardly do

temple repairs.

Pay us the money or

we'll report to the police!

Plan to sell it off

and walk away?

You think you can

get away like that?

Didn't I tell you enough times that

Monk Fuboku needs money urgently?

I, Kumazawa, give you my word

as a true gentleman.

I ask you to

please trust me!

But he has

suffered great misfortune.

With the fire that destroyed both

his temple and its living quarters.

Because he needs money

to rebuild the temple,

he has gone so far as to

sell off temple treasures.

We won't take your offer

for the Buddha statues,

but you must pay us

for the scroll!

I understand, but he should have

delivered the money by now.

That antique dealer!

So unreliable!

Good evening.

I apologize for being late.

I rushed over to

your house with the money.

They told me you were here,

so I rushed over.

Please make sure.

The owner of

the antique shop Jurakudo.

Please excuse us

for a moment.

How's Osen?

Don't worry.

Matsuda's got Osen covered.

Please reconsider our offer

about the statues.

They are over there.

Amazing!

From the Tempyo Period and

the Tang Dynasty!

I would love to

buy them.

That'll boost

my shop's reputation!

But they are very valuable pieces,

unlike the scroll earlier.

Trust, indeed, is the most

important thing here.

Come here!

Now!

Damn it!

What a disgrace!

How dare you!

You rat!

You hurt my reputation!

Calm down here.

Don't be so violent.

Don't ever step into

my house again!

Such a disgrace!

It's not that

we don't trust you.

Calm down.

There's nothing we can do

if you're so upset.

Just that they are

very valuable statues.

Hey,

antique dealer!

Stop it!

I've had enough!

"The greatest despairs is indeed

the greatest hope. "

I refuse such

a preposterous scheme!

You can live

your life in luxury!

They say, "Cheat a monk,

you pay for seven generations. "

You refusing?

Why didn't you shut up and

listen from the beginning?

Insolent whore!

Monk Fuboku

has arrived.

Welcome.

This way, please.

No innocent, nave girl

gets drunk!

Get that?

This...

is a little unexpected.

We're merely giving fate

a helping hand here.

Where did

that worm go?

You lazy swine!

You dog!

Lolling around, eh!

We've got a guest.

Looks good.

Hands off!

You scared me!

Hey you!

Get the bath ready!

Is she the sister

you were talking about?

All I am is

a painted-up vixen in disguise!

No matter what

those heartless people do.

Promise me...

Promise you won't give up,

okay?

No matter what happens,

I am here to help you,

Sokichi.

Thank you very much.

I have found a mother

and a sister in you.

What's this,

you rat!

Shirking work again?

Get the bath ready!

Now!

Get to it,

you scum!

Please.

I will consider it carefully,

since it is your sister that

we are talking about.

She's hardly

worthy of you.

Please,

have a cup.

Before that,

would you excuse me?

The toilet would be...?

There,

over there.

May I humbly ask for

your sister's hand?

She's not worthy of you,

but if you wish.

Well,

another drink.

Here,

let me shave.

A lunatic

with a razor, huh?

Don't say that.

After all, we do need to make you look

as pretty as possible.

Hey kid!

Get some warm water

in a bowl!

Show me your face,

you urchin!

Hold still!

I'm far from perfect.

But he's good practice.

Leave him alone!

Come on!

What difference does it make?

He can lose

an eyebrow or two!

Then come on!

Try shaving off mine first!

I'd rather die than

do what you people say!

Hey!

Don't lose

your temper at me!

Calm down!

I'm sorry, I am!

Go get changed!

Hurry up!

'"Everlasting heaven and earth,

distant past and present.

A man of small figure commits

an audacious deed. "'

Just completed school this spring,

am I right?

And now,

learning music.

Her voice when chanting

must be lovely!

Come here,

over here.

This is such a

fortunate blessing.

With the temple rebuilt soon and

such a beautiful bride,

I feel very blessed.

Hello.

What did you

come here for, huh!

How dare you

show up!

Come here!

No, no, no, hold it for a second.

Listen to me.

Wait,

Mr. Kumazawa.

We must remain cordial here.

Let's stop this bickering.

Please,

leave it to me.

You've come about the statues,

I presume?

No need to tell me.

Come,

over here.

Come.

Well then.

First,

have a cup.

I have left the matter completely to
