"I've never been outside Taiwan." "How did you learn Japanese?" "At the university." "Japanese, English, French, German." "If you need an interpreter, let me know." "I'm cheap." "All right." "How far to Zhang-Long?" "Two or three hours by car." "You know the hospital, don't you?" "Wang Zhi-Ming fled the country at the age of 14 and hasn't been back." "So why did he need the hospital here if never comes back?" "Oh, are you talking about the hospital in the newspaper?" "What a load of rubbish!" "It's just a publicity stunt to attract more patients." "So, people don't care about whatever he does in Japan..." "Unfortunately, I've got to get back to work." "Enjoy Taipei's night-life." "It's perfectly simple." "We want to do business with you." "We give you the information, and you find the clients." "You get 30%." "What's the business?" "Organs." "Kidneys, marrow, corneas..."

"You can get all sorts of drugs here." "Wang's father was also an addict." "His mother's gone missing." "Wang killed his father at the age of 14 and fled the country." "That's his only crime in Taiwan." "Let's go to the hospital." "Wang bought this old Japanese Colonial building and made it into a hospital." "It looks old, but it has all the latest facilities" "It appears to be a normal hospital, doesn't it?" "I'm glad to have found such a good guide." "It was you who wanted to come here." "Huang Long-Ren..." "Your Chinese name." "We know everything about you." "A son of a Japanese war-orphan, left in China." "You went to Japan at the age of 16, using your father's family name "Kiriya"." "It must be a handicap for you." "I'll stay here tonight." "This is not the place for a Japanese tourist." "Yes, I've finished my duty, but... the water's given me the runs." "I'm stuck on the toilet." "I can't say when." "Here it comes again." "I'll call you later." "The Japanese cop is sick." "He ate something that didn't agree with him and I'm looking after him." "TRAVEL AGENCY" "I know that song, too." "Is it sung on the main land?" "Mmmm?" "How are your family?" "Yeah, both parents and a younger brother." "They're okay." "Okay?" "My mother only speaks Chinese." "She hasn't settled in Japan." "Father is ill." "What about your brother?" "I'm going to make sure he becomes a lawyer." "He should lead a decent life." "Is that for you to decide?" "Yes, I'm family." "I wish you luck." "My..." "My grandfather got killed in the war fighting as a Japanese soldier." "He wants to talk to you." "Money." "These children entered the country two months ago, and stayed in that hospital." "They tried to leave the country with fake passports, and were detained here." "Do you get it?" "This was a kidney removal." "The kidney was sold." "Just one of the two kidneys can keep a whole family." "Most clients are Japanese." "What are the police doing?" "Nothing." "Some want to sell and some want to buy." "What can you say when both parties are pleased with the deal?" "I heard you were very ill." "Did you have dysentery?" "They thought I had cholera." "Read it." "Read out it loud." ""According to a report from the Taipei City police, Lung-Shan Office," ""Assistant Police Inspector Tatsuhito Kiriya of the Shinjuku Police" ""conducted unauthorized investigations in Taiwan." ""Please take necessary measures to insure such things do not happen again." """ " Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Republic of China."" "So... keep yourself out of trouble for a while." "Yes..." "Do you want to get Wang?" "Dealing with the Yakuza is no fun." "People are already talking." "Speaking." "Hold on." "Kiriya, your mother." "Hello?" "Tatsuhito." "What's up?" "Father's not well." "We also haven't heard from Yoshihito." "He's not at the office." "Have you seen him recently?" "He must be busy." "Don't worry." "I don't know what to do." "Will you see everything's all right?" "So, how can I help you?" "Where's Yoshihito?" "I have no idea." "He's gone." "Gone where?" "Ask Wang." "Your brother is ungrateful." "Get off." "I said get off me." "Shall I call the police?" "The police?" "A close friend." "A close friend." "We are very close friends" "To be close to someone." "Shall we say it again?" "What's your business here?" "We're at peace, there's a truce..." "There's no need for you to be here." "You are an unwanted child." "Okay, I'll be there." "Your colleague, Kiriya, is half dead." "Are you coming?" "I've got a little lady." "A quickie before work." "You guys are beasts." "Wang, this is Uchida." "I have a cop called Kiriya here." "We could drop him in the sea." "Do you want to buy him?" "Whatever you want to pay." "His kidneys must be strong." "20,000 yen?" "Okay." "Done." "It's a done deal." "Take care of him." "Oh, right." "20,000 yen." "Oh yeah, as promised." "How could I have forgotten?" "In he goes." "Don't touch Yoshihito." "He's my family." "In that shit-hole of a village, on the coldest day, in the coldest winter," "we were kicked into a pig pen," "because we have Japanese blood in us." "All thefts were... put on us, us two brothers." "I think this is Japan, isn't it?" "Yoshihito needs me and I accept him." "That's a bond." "It's time to learn just what you are." "An excellent organ bank." "What do you think?" "Don't mention this to Yoshihito." "Beautiful, isn't it?" "How much?" "It's priceless, as this was made-to-order." "Boss, all sorted." "Time for you to go out and play..." "Yes, sir." "Hey..." "What kind of service does Wang get?" "Don't you understand Japanese?" "I'll give this to you if you give me what I want." "Only if you give me what I want." "Don't laugh." "Does it taste good?" "Wait." "Just...just wait." "Put this into your mouth, and bite...bite it." "That's good." "Good, good, good." "Use your tongue more." "I'm quick, aren't I?" "It always pleases my partners." "You..." "Knife." "Thank you, Mr. Weeny-burger." "Mr. What...?" "What did he say?" "'Kidney Transplant Applicants List'" "What is this?" "This is the Yamane gang's accounts." "There's a large discrepancy, isn't there?" "So what?" "So what...well...?" "The selling price of organs is a lot more than the Yamane gang is reporting." "They're lying about the real selling price." "You've been cheated." "I don't mind a discrepancy of up to 40%." "That's about correct, isn't it?" "Don't do anything silly..." "I'm just trying to help you." "It's true." "Don't be alarmed." "A gift for you." "Mr. Kishiwada." "You're not going to have an easy death." "What?" "And?" "Yeah, yeah?" "What are you doing?" "That hurts!" "Where did you learn this?" "I made it up." "This is a fancy knife." "Who gave you this?" "Ishizaka." "He said... it was priceless." "Ishizaka." "Pus is coming out from my dick." "That doesn't sound too good." "Summer has come." "Definitely." "Call Shimada." "Yes." "He has become the left hand man." "You mean 'right hand man'." "What's funny?" "You're late, lnspector Shimada." "It's incredible." "Where are all the Chinese gone?" "That's why you are here." "Where are they gone?" "I don't know." "Immigration hasn't moved in on them..." "My lunch break is short." "Can we make it snappy." "Hello everybody!" "Right on target." "What do you want?" "It's nice to see you again, Boss, and thank you for everything." "No need to fuss." "The dog that keeps walking around, finds the bone." "You think?" "If you have ears to hear..." "See you." "I'll be back the day after tomorrow." "Is it okay?" "What?" "Your dick." "Where is Yoshihito?" "Worry about yourself first." "The Yamane gang have been taken apart." "Pretend to give in to Wang." "No way." "Why?" "I must take Yoshihito home, and make him forget...everything." "My father and mother are worried..." "It was the first time I came without being high...you're the first one." "It's a pity to waste it...your dick." "What are you doing?" "It doesn't come off." "What?" "The blood of my father." "The aconite doesn't flower." "Wait till Autumn." "Do you want to poison anyone?" "No." "I'm stupid, so I'll die in a stupid way" "I don't like any sort of pain." "So if I lose all desire to live," "I'll just bite the plant's root." "That's sort of romantic." "Right." "Let's go." "Where are you going?" "To find Kiriya." "The heavens know the evil ways of men." "See you soon!" "Can we...?" "Hey... we can." "Hey!" "Can't we do it?" "Hey!" "Do you have a shooter?" "Here!" "He's doped up to his eyeballs, so he can't have gone too far." "Find him before Wang comes back." "Huh?" "Just bring in his corpse if you have to!" "Keep your voice down, Kai-no." "What did you say?" "Eh?" "What do you...?" "What?" "Where is Yoshihito?" "Fill out a missing person's form." "Aren't you a policeman?" "At the Chinese restaurant "Kao Shang"," "Wang's getting it on with him." "He might have been corn-holed by now." "You know what they say..." "It takes a long time for a fruit to grow." "You get it?" "Kai-no!" "I told you... it's Karino." "What are you doing?" "What do you want?" "What do you think you're doing?" "What's going on?" "What're you doing?" "Is Wang here?" "None of your business, brother." "Let's go home." "You've got it all wrong." "You know nothing." "You know absolutely nothing." "If you don't like the way I am, just kill me." "I'm only using Wang." "Let me even things up." "Brother..." "Dad?" "It's me." "It's Tatsuhito." "I know it's a bit sudden, but Yoshihito's taking the bullet train to visit you." "So please pick him up." "He may be sleeping, 'cause he's very tired." "Will you wake him?" "He'll be on the Kodoma 25, in carriage number 11." "Right?" "The second from the front." "You enter the store, and take Dried Turtle, Rock Hard Tonic and Magic Cream to the cashier, then he will let you in." "Where's your friend?" "Coming." "Stay here until he comes." "I can't." "I'm busy." "Lead me to Wang's room." "Wang," "what are you waiting for?" "Waiting?" "Mr. Wang." "Come in." "Good night." "Wang." "ONE MONTH LATER" "Hey, shall we go somewhere nice?" "Don't touch me!" " Skank!" " Asshole!" "How is the investigation going?" "It's a tough one." "Wang had too many enemies." "Don't hold out." "Everybody is glad, actually." "Doesn't matter what they say." "You did it, didn't you?" "Me?" "Why should I?" "Where were you at the time Wang died?" "Why did you do it?" "Your imagination runs away with you." "All right." "You'll soon get an official notification." "Promotion." "Dad?" "It's me." "How are you?" "I'm well." "It looks like I'm being promoted." "Why?" "Because I've been working hard." "My salary's going up too." "No use standing still." "I'm planning to buy a house." "A big one." "How's Yoshihito?" "I scold him for being such a little boy." "I tell him to calm down." "He'll see things straight when we're all together again." "How's mom?" "The Dragon's Claw Society is an ancient institution." "I did hear tell that a cop called Kiriya Tatsuhito was killed... in some back street or other in Shinjuku."
