Tracing Shadow

---

I've lost

You are the

Supreme Master of Martial Arts now

I shall retreat to the midlands

and never fight again

I shall retreat to the midlands

and never fight again

Changgong!

(The Imperial City)

(Tai Bai Restaurant)

Come on...

Unexpected that we could meet again.

Come to upstairs, come on...

Come on...

I'll beat you.

Stop!

This umbrella is too expensive.

Forget it if you don't want to buy.

It's you?

Let's go.

I've invited you here to discuss

Emperor Ming's hidden treasure

The map is hidden inside

The Imperial Palace

Treasure map? What is the plan?

The Autumn Festival

is coming in three days

We shall make our move

on the night of the full moon

The Imperial Palace is heavily guarded

How will we get in?

Heavily guarded, you say?

The Emperor visits Lady Liu

on the fifteenth of each month

Other than a bunch of useless eunuchs

no one dares to go near The Imperial Palace

Chu can show off his lock-picking techniques

I will be done even before The Emperor

has taken off his Royal Pants!

I will be done even before The Emperor

has taken off his Royal Pants!

How do we get the map outside of the city?

That is where I come in

I have been escorting convoy

across the country for years

I have been escorting convoy

across the country for years

I know the best route

to exit The Imperial City

Fantastic, it is done then

In three days, on the fifteenth of this month

let us make a toast to the full moon

Cheers!

Go away!

I lost control.

Go away, old lady!

The horse is coming, go away!

Who is this piece of crap

interrupting my party?

You are completely out of tune!

I'm here for fun!

Calm down, just ignore them

Sir, you are really

disrupting our performance

Can you please stop

and let us continue on our own?

We are performing, too!

I just want to be able to

perform a sonata with her

May I?

Isn't that the Supreme Master of

Martial Arts... Changgong?

Isn't that the Supreme Master of

Martial Arts... Changgong?

What's he doing here in The Imperial City?

Supreme Master my foot!

I heard he was defeated

by Na-Lan of Manchuria

Probably came here to hide his shame

Hide his shame in a whorehouse?

Doesn't quite match up the

reputation of a Master!

He might as well be digging his own grave

No point in arguing with these idiots

Let's get out of here

(Tai Bai Restaurant)

So... your place or mine?

What's that you said?

To finish our sonata...

How about...

We meet in three days, on the night

of the Autumn Festival

We meet in three days, on the night

of the Autumn Festival

We shall complete our

sonata under the full moon

What do you think?

Sounds good

On the night of the full moon

we shall meet at the highest

point of The Imperial City

we shall meet at the highest

point of The Imperial City

That was fast!

Shush, someone's been here already

Who?

A woman?

The treasure map!

Go after her!

Assassins!

Protect The Emperor!

Quick...

My nose!

You stood me up, why?

Technically, you didn't forget

our date under the moon

because you did show up

Why?

Is our meeting all just a part of your plan?

Is our meeting all just a part of your plan?

It is hard to find someone

who we can be in tune with

It is hard to find someone

who we can be in tune with

Where's the treasure map?

Hand it over!

Otherwise

I will have to take it from you

Help me...

Help me...

Is this the treasure map?

The treasure is hidden near this town!

Forget it...

I'm done with this

You two can go find this treasure

Men die in seek of wealth and illusions

Totally not worth it...

I want to go home!

This drawing changes...

What an old rundown temple

I should tear it down

renovate it into a few shops and earn rent

"5 years later"

We're ready to order!

What you looking at?

Make your order!

Shark's fin soup

Great...

Stir-fried frog

Good...

That's it? Coming right up

Don't keep us waiting too long

Check out this chick

She's steaming hot...

That was quick!

Enjoy!

Young lady.

What's wrong with you?

Hey honey...

where's the shark's fin

and stir-fried frog we ordered?

Yeah!

This is what you ordered!

That's just fish and

pork with glass noodles!

Darn, the fish isn't even cooked!

What are you playing at?

Father! There's trouble out here again!

Good day, gentlemen

What's wrong?

Didn't you explain to them?

My apologies, please allow me to

introduce these dishes to you

This is Genuine Sushi

from the Ryukyu Islands

It goes great with chili pepper

And this, Braised Pork with

Vermicelli from the Northeast

Smells good, doesn't it?

Ginger...

Exactly!

The aroma of ginger

It's specially prepared by my father

Think about it

Pork, vermicelli, and fish

You've got all the nutrition you need!

And along with ginger

Here, smell again

It's absolutely brilliant!

Correct? Agree?

No!

That's not the point,

this is not what I ordered

You shouldn't confuse what's on

the menu with actual dishes that is served

You shouldn't confuse what's on

the menu with actual dishes that is served

More importantly,

consider this for a minute

whatever it is that you eat

what happens after that?

It all comes out the other end, right?

What's the difference whether it's

shark's fin or glass noodles?

Let's not fuss with such stupid formalities

Just enjoy the food

Please enjoy!

Go ahead, eat...

How dare you screw with me!

Either you eat the food

Or you simply leave
