Let the Bullets Fly Page #3

Totally neglected,

it's taken root and sprouted leaves.

Pop said to me,

we need this to convene court.

He wants to try a case.

What case?

Has someone filed a complaint?

It's been here for 100 years.

If you now unveil the drum,

who knows what case it may bring?

Where's your old man?

In bed.

At this hour? Who with?

What happened?

Where is it going?

Look what you've done!

Drum...!

Out of my way!

It's homing in on me!

Help! Help!

My wine is ruined,

my mood destroyed!

Everything's spoilt!

I'll deal with you another day.

The drum is shattered!

So there must be a case to try!

Court!

How have you been wronged?

I'm not.

If no one is wronged, case dismissed!

Sir!

I have wronged Master Wu.

I was careless.

I ran into him and knocked over his wine.

Completely ruining his day.

I need to kowtow and apologise. Sorry!

That was nothing.

How dare you say nothing?

Kneel!

He coaches Huang's militia.

Go easy on him.

During the reign of the last Emperor,

I was bestowed a Martial Scholar.

My rank was higher than yours.

You should kneel in front of me!

Kneel!

Kneel!

This is bullshit!

The last Emperor? Have I ever met him?

If you'd been a Literary Scholar,

he'd have to kowtow 200 times.

But as a Martial Scholar,

you'll get only 100 kowtows.

Since he has already done 200,

you've to return 100 kowtows.

But I've only kowtowed twice!

Does it really matter?

Do it!

Flog him!

That's no good.

This is more effective.

Stop! I'll do it.

Splendid!

You kowtow, and you do the counting.

One, two, three, four...

Hail, Governor!

Stand up everyone!

No one is worth kneeling to.

Least of all to me!

I've brought three things to Goose Town.

Justice,

justice,

and goddamned justice.

Hail, Governor!

Stand up! No kneeling!

That's better.

No kneeling?

He was not only flogging me,

he was slapping you in the face!

When my butts stop hurting,

I will personally avenge you.

Summon the noodle vendor.

If our governor loves to try,

we'll give him a case to try.

Pop, you were brilliant today.

Flogging that martial scholar was a hoot!

I'd love to be a governor one day.

I don't want you to be a bandit or politician.

When your father entrusted you to me,

I promised I'd raise you properly.

Then what should I do?

Study and learn to enjoy this.

There is no sound!

Politicians only know how to bully.

This gramophone was broken,

Now it is fixed.

Once we're done here,

I'll let you study abroad.

and 3 more in the south.

How about 3 years in the north?

No, you're born in the north.

Who is this by?

I think it's Wolfgang.

Sometime known as Amadeus.

We call him M-o-z-a-r-t.

You can tell by listening?

It depends.

On what?
