How about that!
That's good to hear. Thank you.
Have a seat.
By the way, this question
may sound a bit odd.
have in your window...
Oh, that. I took it.
I took some nude shots
of the same model.
- Would you like to see?
- Nudes?
What do you think?
She's got a lovely body.
She came looking for work.
The model, do you know
where she's from?
I'm not really sure.
Sachiko.
What was it
that model said to you?
She said she was helping out
at a bar called Osome.
She did?
Shall we stop by
on the way back from the party?
How about it?
Lovely to see you again. It's been a while!
You've got a girl who does
modeling work here I think.
- You mean Rui?
- Is she here tonight?
Ruiko, you say? So it is her.
From Nishijin?
Yes, that's right. She's taken the night
off. Something about her brother she said.
Why do you want to know?
It's not important.
Anyway, please enjoy yourselves.
Do you know the model then?
Not exactly...
She's the daughter of a family who were
very kind to me 8 years or so back.
You lived in Kyoto?
Yes, it was immediately after the war.
parts for submarines.
I was removed (probably by occupation
forces) and I was sent off.
I came to Kyoto alone.
I see.
I left my family in Tokyo and advised
my factory start make frying pans!
It was almost like being in exile.
It was near Ogawagashira in Nishijin.
An old weaving house at the end of an alley
with a tiny shrine and a statue of Jizo.
I was going to Daitokuji
anything out of it...
I was deep in despair but
the discipline helped.
Looking back on it now, it
was probably good for me.
Mr Aso. Are you at home?
Please come this way.
- Thank you.
- This way.
It's nasty weather!
Please come in and get out of the rain.
You're very kind.
You had some business with Mr Aso?
Yes, I used to rent the upstairs
The second floor just opposite here.
Yes, I remember. But you
have really changed!
So you remember me?
- You used to go to Daitokuji Temple.
- Many years ago.
Speaking of old we've been here
doing gold leaf work 50 years!
Now I'm just an old guy and
if I laugh I drop stuff!
But this job has fed and
clothed us right through.
too good for us though!
I think she's back.
Rui?
It's me. From Tokyo.
Mr. Murakami!
You haven't changed a bit.
- Here you are.
- Thank you.
You're alone? Where are your parents?
Both dead.
Dead? Really?
Mother 4 years ago. Dad just recently.
I see. I didn't know.
So it's just you and your little brother.
