THERE'S NO WAY THAT MY FUTON IS THIS COMFY!
It's a senbei futon!
flat mattress filled with barley.
WHERE THE HELL AM I?
DID YOU SLEEP WELL?
TATSUMI SAN.
YOU...
YOSHIMUNE!
I JUST REMEMBERED!
I CAME HERE TO GIVE THIS GUY A PIECE OF MY MIND...
YOSHIMUNE!
COME OUT! I HAVE TO TALK TO YOU!
Yo!
ANIKI!
I WAS JUST GETTING READY TO GO AND SEE YOU.
DAMN YOU....
YOU TOLD THE OWNER TO VACATE WITHIN THE WEEK OR PAY UP, DIDN'T YOU!?
And don't call me your aniki!
We're not related so it had better be "Tatsumi san", all right!?
THAT LAND BELONGS TO THE ENGOKU GANG, AND IMPROVING THE GROUP'S ASSETS IS PART OF MY JOB.
YOU THINK IT WAS MAYBE SUDDEN!?
SURE THAT SHOP IS SMALL BUT THE OWNER BUILT IT UP BIT BY BIT ALL BY HIMSELF!
AND YOU JUST....
I COULD ABANDON THAT ENDEAVOR.
WH-
IF YOU COME AND LIVE WITH ME HERE, ANIKI. HOW ABOUT IT?
THAT'S ALL
WELL, IT'S PART OF MY FATHER'S WILL.
Oh!
ALMOST FORGOT. I'LL ALSO NEED YOU TO QUIT BEING A HOST.
WHAT?
IF IT GOT OUT THAT A MEMBER OF THE ENGOKU GROUP WAS MOONLIGHTING AS A HOST, OUR MEMBERS COULDN'T HOLD THEIR HEADS UP, COULD THEY?
YOU KNOW I'D NEVER AGREE TO THAT.
AND YET YOU'RE GOING TO.
CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG?
ANIKI.
WE CAN PROVIDE ANYTHING YOU MIGHT NEED.
OKAY, APPARENTLY TALKING DOESN'T GET ANYWHERE WITH YOU, SO GOODBYE.
THAT'S RIGHT!
THEN THEY TOOK ME TO THIS GUY'S ROOM!
BREAKFAST IS READY.
SON OF A BITCH! YOU'VE GOT A NERVE!
This is a crime. you get that!?
HE DODGED!
IF YOU NEED ANYTHING, JUST ASK HIM.
WELL, I'M GOING OUT.
I NEED TO GET OUT OF THIS PLACE....
OH AND....
....UNTIL YOU AGREE TO MY TERMS, YOU'RE NOT TAKING A SINGLE STEP OUTSIDE.
All right, see you.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?
HE'S REALLY JUST A LOW CLASS, PERVERTED YAKUZA SON OF A BITCH!
I'M WORRIED ABOUT THE SHOP.
IN ANY CASE, NO MATTER WHAT I'VE GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE SOON!
THERE'S NO WAY I'M SHARING A HOUSE WITH THIS FREAK!
THAT NIGHT, UNDER COVER OF DARKNESS.....
AH....
....THEY FOUND ME.
WHEN I HID AMONG THE GANG MEMBERS.....
....THEY FOUND ME.
WHEN I CAME HEAD ON WITH NO TRICKS....
....THEY FOUND ME.
Okay, l get it!
Just go back to my room. right!?
YOU SEEM TO BE ENJOYING YOURSELF LATELY, KASHIRA.
YES.
AFTER THIS, YOU HAVE A MEETING WITH THE 1ST LIEUTENANT OF MINAMOTO. AFTER THAT....
RIGHT.... ACTUALLY, FOR A WHILE I'M GOING TO NEED YOU TO CANCEL ALL MY EVENING APPOINTMENTS.
UH.... BUT THAT WOULD....
I TOLD YOU TO DO IT.
UNDER STOOD.
I WANT TO GET HOME EARLY.
HE'S NOT EATING?
NO HE HASN'T TOUCHED ANYTHING WE OFFER.
SO.....YOU'RE SO USED TO EATING DISGUSTING, POOR PERSON FOOD THAT YOUR STOMACH CAN'T TAKE HIGH CLASS FOOD?
WRONG!
IT'S A HUNGER STRIKE!
Damn.... l just wasted some calories....
AH....
So that's what it was.
I WAS WORRIED YOU MIGHT NOT BE FEELING WELL.
WHAT'S THAT FACE FOR?
Mmm..... looks good!
HE'S MESSING UP MY RHYTHM.
ANIKI, ARE YOU REALLY NOT GOING TO EAT?
NOPE.
OKAY THEN, I'LL TAKE YOU AT YOUR WORD.
it a dakimasu.
FAKING STRENGTH OF WILL IS BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH, TOY KNOW.
HOW ABOUT JUST ONE BITE?
IF YOU'RE SO WORRIED, THEN LET ME GO.
Why do you think l'm doing this hunger strike?
