The Drunkard Page #2

---

I think she's a genius.

All her novels are the same.

You only need to read one and

don't need to bother with the rest

I think "Lolita"

is an absolute masterpiece.

I'm reading a Chinese translation.

This belongs to your father?

Stop it

Are you scared?

We've been drinking

It's just a drink, not poison.

Alcohol is not poison

but to a 1 7 year old girl, it's even worse.

You think I'm still a little girl?

I didn't say that.

So what do you mean?

I mean...

poison can kill a person,

and when you die it's over

But alcohol is different

it can make you lose your head

It can make

a 1 7-year-old girl do something

she might regret for the rest of her life

Doctor, he is awake

How do you feel?

You were hit on the head

By whom?

How would we know?

How can you not know?

Don't get so excited

Your injuries are quite serious,

you need to rest

Come in

Are you OK?

I think so

The doctor said he gave me 1 2 stitches

Take a rest for a few days

I'll pay the hospital fees

I didn't know that old fart

would bring two bodyguards.

You should have thought of it earlier.

I thought he was just some old fool

Now look who's the fool

I'm thirsty

Bring me some alcoholic drink.

No, that's against hospital rules

You can't drink alcohol here

Have a good rest

Another one

You just got out of the hospital,

you shouldn't drink too much

Doesn't matter. One more

Alright, just one

then I have to leave

Another whiskey on the rocks.

Call me if you need anything.

Drink up. It's on me

Going out?

I just came back

What do you want?

I want to discuss something with you

They're out playing mah-jong.

They won't be back too early

Watch out. You're only 1 7!

Why are you so scared?

You're even more cowardly than virgins

You're only 1 7

And you're not a small kid

You're a mature man

Mature?

Mary, where are you?

Your mother won in mah-jong.

Let's go out for a midnight snack.

What caused a 1 7 year old girl

to be so brazen?

She must either have watched

too many American movies

or read too much pulp fiction.

Mr. Lau

I want the room back.

You got to move out!

Why?

My daughter is still very young

I don't want her to

get ruined by a drunkard

What are you talking about?

This is a free world

Writers have the freedom to write

martial arts novels or pulp fiction

Readers have the freedom to read

martial arts novels and pulp fiction

This place has too much freedom

Writer's sweat and blood

get no protection

Any book that sells gets pirated

and sold in South-East Asia

If these publishers have freedom

Perhaps thieves should have

the freedom to steal

Lau

Haven't seen you in almost a year.

Where have you been hiding?

Did you win the lottery
