It's been vacant for so long.

You know what I mean, don't you?

I don't believe in those things.

It's probably for the best you don't.

Is this meant to be worn by humans?

Why does a pig need to wear clothes?

Stop moving or I'll prick you!

Have you seen those pig feet of hers?

She's so f***ing fat.

Just you wait and see.

Yau's place is going to close down.

That fat pig eats everything!

Gosh... that mouth of yours!

You know what I think. It's a conspiracy.

Yau and that fat pig want us to

end up fatter than her!

Her squinty little pig eyes.

Old man, they don't charge us for it, you know.

That's the point! Free food and large portions.

How is that not a conspiracy?

I'm telling you.

Someday, I'm going to kill them with

a f***ing nuclear bomb.

Ouch! That hurts!

F***ing parents, letting their kids out

at this time of the night.

Your glutinous rice is amazing.

So, where does that get me?

You make the best in town.

What more do you want?

My great-great grandfather

started carrying glutinous rice,

with him way back in the old days.

You probably know that it's

not just used for cooking, right?

What else? For hunting Vampires?

Oh? So you know that Vampires

are afraid of glutinous rice? Eh?

In the old days, all successful Vampire Hunters,

had special relationships with

the best rice shops.

They get discounts for

the glutinous rice they needed.

Rice was really worth something back then.

Vampire hunters carried glutinous rice

with them at all times.

This relationship was passed down

from generation to generation.

And subsequently to me.

All the Vampires have miraculously vanished,

along with all the Vampire hunters.

So what do Vampire Hunters do

when there are no f***ing Vampires left?

They cook.

Thank you for saving my life this morning.

You mean getting in your way?

But just because I stopped you once,

doesn't mean I can stop you the next time.

Save it and thank me

if you're still around next time.

Old man, where have you been?

It's late.

I was looking for you.

I was here.

I was afraid of losing you.

Why are your feet still so cold?

Soaking isn't helping?

Are you not feeling well?

I'm alright.

I'll be back in a few days.

Wait for me.

Master, I'll leave it to you then.

Don't worry. I will take care of it.

This is a token of my appreciation.

Please accept it.

I'll be on my way now.

Gau.

Let's talk privately.

Auntie Mui, that's a lot of groceries.

Yes. Tung... Tung is coming home.

He loves fish.

How is he?

He's good. He is coming home.

I should get back to work now.

Auntie Mui.

Pak.

You can't come here anymore.

Run along now. Be a good boy.

To preserve the body we must choose a dark place,
