Forgive me
It was 18 Years ago when i first went
to Japan from Okinawa full of ambition.
But the reality of it all was
surprisingly hard on me.
and It was difficult to earn
enough to eat everyday.
Just about that time i saw a picture of
Mr. Hinohara's Gorgeous Mansion in the paper.
In the picture i saw three children
a girl and twin brothers.
And with two other men i knew
i kidnapped one of the twin boys.
JOJI HINOHARA
That boy was you Joji.
I got into a nasty argument
and i killed my accomplices.
I fled to America from
Japan and took you with me.
Joji forgive me.
The more you trusted
me as your father and believed in me
The more It hurt to keep the truth inside.
Then while in Houston i read in
the papers from Japan
that your real parents were killed 3yrs
ago when their private plane crashed.
Upon learning of the death of Mr. and Mrs.
Hinohara and circumstances that surrounded it
Just recently your twin brother Toru
became missing under mysterious circumstances.
Joji you have to go back to Japan.

Ahh Pervert!
What?
Your Kidding.
Then what are you?
A salesman? A thief?
That's it you must be a thief.
An underwear thief using a little monkey.
Real lecherous...
The Worst Kind. At your age
too you ought to be ashamed.
I think it's best he should be put in Jail.
Pervert!
Look at that. That proves it.
Be Quiet!
Listen now. This is my house.
Woah! There must be
something wrong with his head.
Do you think we should call the nurse?
I'm disappointed in you...
Eh? Explain yourself.
I was told all Japanese girls are like flowers.
You know,
all of them Quiet and well mannered.
American girls have much better manners.
Look at the pot calling the kettle black.
Let's call the police and have him
locked up for good.
- Come over here!
- Hey Wait! Wait!
- Don't get pushy, wait!
- Come here!
Hey cut it out.
Pervert!
Your wrong!
Hey wait a minute you...
Help! we need you Spartacus!
I'm going to crush you kid!
Come down kid!
What's wrong King Kong?
Cant even stand up straight.
Yes.
What? Toru?
Hinohara Toru cant be in Japan
That's impossible.
The old syndicate in Hong Kong
has already taken him out.
Can i have some more?
Wow you want more?
It's all right. After all we
treated Joji really bad.
That's right.
Eat all you want it's on us.
Bogey. Another spaghetti.
I don't have anymore
spaghetti he ate it all.
You really had bad luck having
your wallet stolen in Japan.
I agree. What are you planning
to do without any money?
San Pi Ji, When are you
going to pay what you owe?
Hey, don't worry i have what i owe.
Then pay me before it dissappears.
I thought it was you...
How did i end up with
this in my hand?
- I just found it.
- Don't tell lies.
Hey wait,
Have mercy, forgive me!
Hey what are you doing!
Alright. Ill teach you a lesson.
- You better not.
- You better not.
- Joji is pretty strong.
- That's right.
What? Give me a break. Im a black belt
in Karate. Just sit back and watch.
- Damn it!
- That hurt!
Please. Wait here. Ill go and
tell the Boss your here.
- Who is standing there?
- Well i...
Toru?
Is that you Toru?
Toru.
Where have you been?
I've been worried sick about you!
Dissappearing from London like that.
Joji! I'm so glad you've come home.
It's a miracle!
Joji?
Uncle.
Chihiro, because you cant see
it's natural you would feel this way.
He is just like Toru used to be.
My name is Joji Hibiki.
No. As of today your Joji Hinohara.
And i happen to be your late fathers
younger Brother Ikeda Hinohara.
That means im your Uncle.
Joji. Is it true? My little
brother Joji has come back?
It seems like a dream.
It's true.
It's a lot to take in.
Until we sold the house it
was the Hinohara family house.
I see you like that music.
This music box was a present
for my 19th birthday.
It was given to me by our father.
He had it made in Europe for me.
For a person who is blind
we start to rely on sound
and this music is the only tie
i have to our parents memory.
Toru also loved this music.
Had you already become blind
when you received the gift.
Yes. I could see until i was 9
then they said i had
separation of the retina.
Toru refused to believe in less
for me and became driven.
He went to study Ophthalmology
in London at a University.
I know he will come back one day.
Until then let me help.
Thank you Joji.
Sister.
Joji.
You'd never think she was
blind would you?
No. She's good.
Been at it 5 years. I persuaded her.
Your father was against
it but she kept at it.
You can see that im a fan of
hand to hand combat.
I'm an advisor to the Western
Japan Martial arts association.
Want to hear how it's helped?
Ever since i started to practice martial
arts ive had more focus and confidence.
Without being able to see
you know what to look
out for if there is trouble?
- You know the Wind?
- The Wind!?
Yes.
The movement of the air.
If i expand. Focus my mind and
hearing sense i know when there's danger.
Today me you long time friends.
Well be good sportsmen.
Sure.
Spartacus.
Why don't you become a
a retainer for Tarzan here?
A black man following
him would be good!
OH NO I AM CHAMPION.
Joji.
This is a little welcome home party.
Kick back and relax all you want.
Joji-san.
This is one of your Uncles restaurants.
Your welcome back every night.
Hey now. Don't lead him astray
I want Joji to be in
prepared to take over one day.
And now Ladies and Gentlemen:
Coming here from America
Las Vegas's all time long run show
The Great Magician
Mr. Magic and his sorcery
MISTER MAGIC!
Good evening.
How is everyone?
Good evening.
I'm grateful that so many
of you have come tonight.
To club Phoenix to enjoy an
evening of bewitching attractions.
Your laying it on pretty thick.
I'm not flattering them.
You think if you did
you would get more money?
Maybe if you work harder
we will both get a raise.
Never happen.
Why not?
Because i heard the owner of this
place is a real tight ass.
Look. You don't have any class.
But i got that from you.
Hey!
Look at the country bumpkin.
What are you looking
around for? I'm talking to you.
With the white suit on
and putting on airs.
Hey. Hey. That's no way to
talk to people in the audience.
But it's the truth.
The truth is never popular.
It's true.
And you better be careful.
Your sitting close to a murderer.
Stupid. This is no Police drama.
The murderer -
gave a cup of coffee to the pilot -
of a certain private plane.
To help him stay awake.
To help him fall asleep.
What?
The coffee had a lot of sleeping pills in it.
What did you say?
And the Cessna crashed,
and his wife also died with him!
So the mystery ends.
But it's not over yet.
The murderer was never caught.
And he is still up to no good!
You'd better stop all this now.
But i cant stop, i wont stop, i cant.
Hiccup.
I can say whatever i want.
Life is real tough isn't it?
Right Country Bumpkin?
Well, i gotta go. Bye bye!
Bye Bye!
Fucking Bullshit!
Didn't you like the show.
Boss you have a message.
Joji. I have to go for a
moment. Stay and relax ok.
Joji. Look. Why don't you
dance with one of the girls?
Going to the restroom.
What? He want's the "Queen of
Sheba" as payment for the stuff?
Yes.
The head of the syndicate in HK
Yo Chen-tung collects precious jewels.
Now he wants the 130k Blue Diamond that's
been in the Hinohara family for Generations,
THE QUEEN OF SHEBA
No matter how much he want's it
we haven't found it yet.
This is the last time we deal with them.
I plan to enter politics in the near future.
$1000 Million yen and a Billion
dollars in the street!
Tell Yo we'll buy the stuff regardless.
You cant!
Mr. Yo will never deliver
without that Diamond.
Make the deal.
No please! I have a family, a daughter.
I beg you.
Please let me out of the syndicate!
Ok i have an idea.
Let's just tell your daughter what
kind of business your really in.
No don't do that.
You must not do that ok.
Then get in touch with Yo quick.
That's an order!
Don't be shy come on in.
I was just about to teach a lesson
on how to live your life like a king.
Get out.
Now Now. Aren't we uncle and nephew?
It's all family here so let's talk.
Come in.
You were raised in America; a Country
where money and material comes first.
When it comes to family business ill expect
you to give me your oath to cooperate.
- Uncle. What have you done?
- In business there is no time for sympathy.
Yes or No.
- So what do you have to say.
- I refuse to help you!
Just a simple answer. Is it yes?
NO!
Joji.
Boss!
No big deal. He needed the rest.
Are you awake?
So you really want to try me?
I'm pissed off!
Finally a fight to the end.
I'll change our fighters more often.
I just hope you keep it interesting.
Sadist.
This kid is full of surprises.
Finish him!
Kill him!
Spartacus!
Little Tarzan!
Come get me! Get out of here!
Stay out, or you will be punished.
I don't care!
Your through!
That's ok that doesn't bother me at all.
Thank you!
GET HIM.
- Joji.
- What happened!?
What happened?
An accident?
How much?
Match?
Here you go.
How much do i owe?
300 yen.
Aren't you..
I used to have two pigeons for
magic tricks then one day one escaped.
The other one just stayed in the cage.
It's blind so it cant escape.
- And here you are.
- Oh! Thank you.
Thank you very much sir!
Hello who is it?
Joji? It's me Reika.
Bring Chihiro to the Casablanca?
Bring her as soon as possible.
But Don't let uncle know.
See you.
The Queen.. of Sheba..
Kyoto Graveyard..
Hinohara Crest..
Gravestone.. Father.
I think i get it now. Chihiro's parents
thought of leaving a message
one only she would ever be
able to read written in braille.
A 130 Carat Diamond.
Fantastic!
Chihiro can i borrow it once in a while?
Why would you do that?
Ah! I would wear it during parties
and make everyone jealous!
Don't be silly. You cant just put
a diamond before this little girl.
Your bad!
Joji. Lets go tell uncle.
He wants to exhibit it at Portopia.
Joji-san, don't you want
uncle to know?
Later i have something
important to tell you.
- Wait here, ill go and get the Jewel.
- Yes and i can take you there.
KYOTO JAPAN
Hinohara Family
That's it.
That must be the jewel.
Sister Jesoma!
My what a disgrace!
Oh save us.
Reika common hurry up!
Reika hurry!
- Oh! Excuse us!
- Drive carefully.
Here they come again!
Joji, leave them up to me.
Just take that Diamond
with you and run ok? Go!
You'll be alright?
Ill be alright
im a fifth level Karate student.
- Fifth level?
- Yes get going!
Get out of here!
Ah! He's gone.
You lost him? You idiot! Go,
don't come back unless he's found.
Kumozawa don't be so hasty.
I still have one more ace up my sleeve
and im going to play it now.
Man that was terrible.
Joji-san!
I'm dying of thirst.
What's this? Still in one piece?
Chihiro went to the hospital.
Hospital?
Reika's father came to get her!
Joji's hurt that's what he told us.
Poppa came?!
But why would he lie?
Hello Casablanca.
Hinohara?
Hello. Hello?
Joji. Chihiro is here with me.
Whether she lives or dies is entirely up to you.
Where is she?
Where are you keeping her?
I'll exchange Chihiro for the Queen of Sheba.
In four hours bring it to the
summer house at edges and beech.
You'll keep her safe till i get there.
Hello. This is Reika.
Is my father there let me speak to him.
I've been listening to this
music ever since i was a little boy.
In the slum through the wind and rain.
Even when i had nothing to eat i carried
the memories of Beethoven with me.
Hiraoka and the word in German is Hiros.
Ill tell you what the translation is.
HIRO!
The demi-god Hiro!
Now there's nothing for you to cry about.
Once i get the Queen of Sheba then you're free.
Im not crying because im afraid of dying.
Then why the tears?
Having a man like you as part of
our blood a relative in our family!
My mother grew up poor and miserable.
In a world with no love a Geisha.
Used and thrown into the flames.
And while staring at the Hinohara
mansion that was standing upon the hill
who was the little boy whose
hand she held as she died? It was me.
And on that day i knew i had to
become the owner of that mansion!
Poppa!
Reika! Why are you here?
Poppa tell me, why did you tell lies to
bring Chihiro here? Tell me poppa!
Reika! Don't ask questions. Let's go.
From now on we can go back
and live in peace like we used to.
NO!
You have to stay here to make
sure our little deal will go smoothly.
But boss!
That's not what you told me.
My part in this is over. Boss!
That's enough!
Joji. The Queen of Sheba
I assume you have it with you.
Let me see my sister.
Sister.
Joji give them the Diamond
it isn't worth the trouble.
In return. I want uncle
to leave the Hinohara family.
If he wont accept, that i rather die here.
Yes. I accept the conditions.
Joji give him the diamond. Together
we will have something more valuable.
If it's alright now well leave. Reika.
Whoa!
Poppa!
Joji!
Joji i have something to tell you.
That airplane accident involving your
parents was no accident it was me!
And your brother Toru I had a syndicate
from Hong Kong take him out cold.
Now i will take the Queen of Sheba to Hong Kong
and bring the Hinohara family into a new Dynasty.
Uncle...
You fools! Disrupt her ability to hear
so that she will lose her concentration!
Finish her with an injection.
Even an autopsy would not detect the poison.
No. Give her some Heroin
just short of a lethal dose.
Heroin is the ancient assassin
of morality and conscience.
Soon she will be crawling on
her knee's begging for more.
I'll send anyone to a hell worse than
death if they try to come against me.
Nobody is going to stop me!
How many days have we been in here?
Forgive me Joji-san! Poppa was
tricked... Chihiro is doomed!
Your father is not to blame.
Be brave.
People are born alone and die alone.
They struggle their entire lives.
In America my father told me so.
You've been here two days.
I bet you guys are getting pretty bored.
I'm here to make it interesting for you.
Your going on an Auschwitz honeymoon.
So. How's your Auschwitz honeymoon going?
It's not like Natzi gas. It's much better.
In ten minutes you'll both go crazy.
And then you will die...
Reika quick grab the whip!
Take care of Peter.
- But Joji!
- I have to find my sister.
Now go on.
Joji-san!
Sister.
Sister.
Sister!
Wake up it's me Joji-san!
Sister!
Joji..
Your still alive thank God.
Let's go. Let's leave this place forever.
Sister come.
Joji i cant go on.
Go ahead without me.
No way! Common.
I know it..
I'm going to die.
Sister.
What are you saying?
Sister!
Sister!
Joji. There are certain things in
this life you should never give into..
even if it means your life.
Take revenge for all of us.
Keep fighting for me and Toru.
Watch out!
Oh what beautiful clarity!
A fascinating stone! This is the very
Diamond i see in my dreams!
I had been searching for a Jewel
as precious this almost all of my life.
I'm glad that your satisfied.
And now I think that i
would like to see what you promised.
Something like this would be very
easy to bypass customs in Japan.
How very thoughtful of you.
Without a doubt this is good stuff.
I would say our little business
transaction was a success.
Where did Mr. Koshi move to?
There he is get him!
Welcome to Hong Kong.
And you. Just who are you
and why are you following me?
Because we are both after the same game.
My name is Tochikawa Shinksi.
Im with the Narcotics division of Interpol.
So your a Policeman?
Your brother Toru died right here.
His body was riddled with bullet holes.
Your Uncle is a lot
more ruthless than you think.
I'll advise you to let us handle it from here.
I refuse.
As an official i cannot allow
you to keep on interfering.
Just stay out of this.
This is something i have
to take care of personally.
Ok fine.
You leave me no choice.
Your under arrest.
Better be careful.
Think before you make your next
move you only have one life.
I'm none of your worry.
I'll get Ikki by myself.
Well do you even know where Ikki is?
Keep quiet and follow me.
Yo Chen-tung!
What do you guys want?
Your under arrest for violation
of international Narcotics law.
What's that?
Ikki..
Where is Ikki Hinohara!
I don't know!
Lung Tow..at my villa.
Lung Tow?
Ok ride's over Joji.
And now, to a fortune in
bananas we'll raise a toast.
Kampai!
Kampai!
Kampai!
Boss. They call this island the
Sleeping Beauty, it's not bad at all.
All that's left now is to mix our
bananas up with another shipment
and have them sent to Japan.
The election for your seat in
congress is getting pretty close.
I know that your gonna make it.
And then ill become secretary
of a congressman.
And then to the Minister
of Trade and Industry.
And after that the Secretary
of the Prime Minister.
Joji.
So you survived.
You've justified being my relative in blood.
Uncle.
And you, for your treacherous ambitions,
you've murdered the whole Hinohara family.
Only one bullet left.
Wouldn't it be better to
save the last bullet for yourself?
Wait a minute ou're my own nephew!
We both have the same Hinohara
blood flowing through our veins.
You're wrong!
I'm Joji Hibiki.
The Hinohara family died....
for something like this.
Joji Hinohara, you're under arrest.
-Take care of the rest.
- Yes.
So now you'll spend
the rest of your life in prison.
That's ok. I took
revenge for the Hinohara family.
Now that i'm all alone
I've got nowhere else to go.
That's not like you at all.
Because you're alone, wouldn't
you like to take off and fly away?
I thought Mr. Magic taught you
the trick to slip out of handcuffs!
Make sure you don't get
arrested by another Joker like me.
Tochikawa!

- Come here!
Hey cut it out.
Pervert!
Your wrong!
Hey wait a minute you...
Help! we need you Spartacus!
I'm going to crush you kid!
Come down kid!
What's wrong King Kong?
Cant even stand up straight.
Yes.
What? Toru?
Hinohara Toru cant be in Japan
That's impossible.
The old syndicate in Hong Kong
has already taken him out.
Can i have some more?
Wow you want more?
It's all right. After all we
treated Joji really bad.
That's right.
Eat all you want it's on us.
Bogey. Another spaghetti.
I don't have anymore
spaghetti he ate it all.
You really had bad luck having
your wallet stolen in Japan.
I agree. What are you planning
to do without any money?
San Pi Ji, When are you
going to pay what you owe?
Hey, don't worry i have what i owe.
Then pay me before it dissappears.
I thought it was you...
How did i end up with
this in my hand?
- I just found it.
- Don't tell lies.
Hey wait,
Have mercy, forgive me!
Hey what are you doing!
Alright. Ill teach you a lesson.
- You better not.
- You better not.
- Joji is pretty strong.
- That's right.
What? Give me a break. Im a black belt
in Karate. Just sit back and watch.
- Damn it!
- That hurt!
Please. Wait here. Ill go and
tell the Boss your here.
- Who is standing there?
- Well i...
Toru?
Is that you Toru?
Toru.
Where have you been?
I've been worried sick about you!
Dissappearing from London like that.
Joji! I'm so glad you've come home.
It's a miracle!
Joji?
Uncle.
Chihiro, because you cant see
it's natural you would feel this way.
He is just like Toru used to be.
My name is Joji Hibiki.
No. As of today your Joji Hinohara.
And i happen to be your late fathers
younger Brother Ikeda Hinohara.
That means im your Uncle.
Joji. Is it true? My little
brother Joji has come back?
It seems like a dream.
It's true.
It's a lot to take in.
Until we sold the house it
was the Hinohara family house.
I see you like that music.
This music box was a present
for my 19th birthday.
It was given to me by our father.
He had it made in Europe for me.
For a person who is blind
we start to rely on sound
and this music is the only tie
i have to our parents memory.
Toru also loved this music.
Had you already become blind
when you received the gift.
Yes. I could see until i was 9
then they said i had
separation of the retina.
Toru refused to believe in less
for me and became driven.
He went to study Ophthalmology
in London at a University.
I know he will come back one day.
Until then let me help.
Thank you Joji.
Sister.
Joji.
You'd never think she was
blind would you?
No. She's good.
Been at it 5 years. I persuaded her.
Your father was against
it but she kept at it.
You can see that im a fan of
hand to hand combat.
I'm an advisor to the Western
Japan Martial arts association.
Want to hear how it's helped?
Ever since i started to practice martial
arts ive had more focus and confidence.
Without being able to see
you know what to look
out for if there is trouble?
- You know the Wind?
- The Wind!?
Yes.
The movement of the air.
If i expand. Focus my mind and
hearing sense i know when there's danger.
Today me you long time friends.
Well be good sportsmen.
Sure.
Spartacus.
Why don't you become a
a retainer for Tarzan here?
A black man following
him would be good!
OH NO I AM CHAMPION.
Joji.
This is a little welcome home party.
Kick back and relax all you want.
Joji-san.
This is one of your Uncles restaurants.
Your welcome back every night.
Hey now. Don't lead him astray
I want Joji to be in
prepared to take over one day.
And now Ladies and Gentlemen:
Coming here from America
Las Vegas's all time long run show
The Great Magician
Mr. Magic and his sorcery
MISTER MAGIC!
Good evening.
How is everyone?
Good evening.
I'm grateful that so many
of you have come tonight.
To club Phoenix to enjoy an
evening of bewitching attractions.
Your laying it on pretty thick.
I'm not flattering them.
You think if you did
you would get more money?
Maybe if you work harder
we will both get a raise.
Never happen.
Why not?
Because i heard the owner of this
place is a real tight ass.
Look. You don't have any class.
But i got that from you.
Hey!
Look at the country bumpkin.
What are you looking
around for? I'm talking to you.
With the white suit on
and putting on airs.
Hey. Hey. That's no way to
talk to people in the audience.
But it's the truth.
The truth is never popular.
It's true.
And you better be careful.
Your sitting close to a murderer.
Stupid. This is no Police drama.
The murderer -
gave a cup of coffee to the pilot -
of a certain private plane.
To help him stay awake.
To help him fall asleep.
What?
The coffee had a lot of sleeping pills in it.
What did you say?
And the Cessna crashed,
and his wife also died with him!
So the mystery ends.
But it's not over yet.
The murderer was never caught.
And he is still up to no good!
You'd better stop all this now.
But i cant stop, i wont stop, i cant.
Hiccup.
I can say whatever i want.
Life is real tough isn't it?
Right Country Bumpkin?
Well, i gotta go. Bye bye!
Bye Bye!
Fucking Bullshit!
Didn't you like the show.
Boss you have a message.
Joji. I have to go for a
moment. Stay and relax ok.
Joji. Look. Why don't you
dance with one of the girls?
Going to the restroom.
What? He want's the "Queen of
Sheba" as payment for the stuff?
Yes.
The head of the syndicate in HK
Yo Chen-tung collects precious jewels.
Now he wants the 130k Blue Diamond that's
been in the Hinohara family for Generations,
THE QUEEN OF SHEBA
No matter how much he want's it
we haven't found it yet.
This is the last time we deal with them.
I plan to enter politics in the near future.
$1000 Million yen and a Billion
dollars in the street!
Tell Yo we'll buy the stuff regardless.
You cant!
Mr. Yo will never deliver
without that Diamond.
Make the deal.
No please! I have a family, a daughter.
I beg you.
Please let me out of the syndicate!
Ok i have an idea.
Let's just tell your daughter what
kind of business your really in.
No don't do that.
You must not do that ok.
Then get in touch with Yo quick.
That's an order!
Don't be shy come on in.
I was just about to teach a lesson
on how to live your life like a king.
Get out.
Now Now. Aren't we uncle and nephew?
It's all family here so let's talk.
Come in.
You were raised in America; a Country
where money and material comes first.
When it comes to family business ill expect
you to give me your oath to cooperate.
- Uncle. What have you done?
- In business there is no time for sympathy.
Yes or No.
- So what do you have to say.
- I refuse to help you!
Just a simple answer. Is it yes?
NO!
Joji.
Boss!
No big deal. He needed the rest.
Are you awake?
So you really want to try me?
I'm pissed off!
Finally a fight to the end.
I'll change our fighters more often.
I just hope you keep it interesting.
Sadist.
This kid is full of surprises.
Finish him!
Kill him!
Spartacus!
Little Tarzan!
Come get me! Get out of here!
Stay out, or you will be punished.
I don't care!
Your through!
That's ok that doesn't bother me at all.
Thank you!
GET HIM.
- Joji.
- What happened!?
What happened?
An accident?
How much?
Match?
Here you go.
How much do i owe?
300 yen.
Aren't you..
I used to have two pigeons for
magic tricks then one day one escaped.
The other one just stayed in the cage.
It's blind so it cant escape.
- And here you are.
- Oh! Thank you.
Thank you very much sir!
Hello who is it?
Joji? It's me Reika.
Bring Chihiro to the Casablanca?
Bring her as soon as possible.
But Don't let uncle know.
See you.
The Queen.. of Sheba..
Kyoto Graveyard..
Hinohara Crest..
Gravestone.. Father.
I think i get it now. Chihiro's parents
thought of leaving a message
one only she would ever be
able to read written in braille.
A 130 Carat Diamond.
Fantastic!
Chihiro can i borrow it once in a while?
Why would you do that?
Ah! I would wear it during parties
and make everyone jealous!
Don't be silly. You cant just put
a diamond before this little girl.
Your bad!
Joji. Lets go tell uncle.
He wants to exhibit it at Portopia.
Joji-san, don't you want
uncle to know?
Later i have something
important to tell you.
- Wait here, ill go and get the Jewel.
- Yes and i can take you there.
KYOTO JAPAN
Hinohara Family
That's it.
That must be the jewel.
Sister Jesoma!
My what a disgrace!
Oh save us.
Reika common hurry up!
Reika hurry!
- Oh! Excuse us!
- Drive carefully.
Here they come again!
Joji, leave them up to me.
Just take that Diamond
with you and run ok? Go!
You'll be alright?
Ill be alright
im a fifth level Karate student.
- Fifth level?
- Yes get going!
Get out of here!
Ah! He's gone.
You lost him? You idiot! Go,
don't come back unless he's found.
Kumozawa don't be so hasty.
I still have one more ace up my sleeve
and im going to play it now.
Man that was terrible.
Joji-san!
I'm dying of thirst.
What's this? Still in one piece?
Chihiro went to the hospital.
Hospital?
Reika's father came to get her!
Joji's hurt that's what he told us.
Poppa came?!
But why would he lie?
Hello Casablanca.
Hinohara?
Hello. Hello?
Joji. Chihiro is here with me.
Whether she lives or dies is entirely up to you.
Where is she?
Where are you keeping her?
I'll exchange Chihiro for the Queen of Sheba.
In four hours bring it to the
summer house at edges and beech.
You'll keep her safe till i get there.
Hello. This is Reika.
Is my father there let me speak to him.
I've been listening to this
music ever since i was a little boy.
In the slum through the wind and rain.
Even when i had nothing to eat i carried
the memories of Beethoven with me.
Hiraoka and the word in German is Hiros.
Ill tell you what the translation is.
HIRO!
The demi-god Hiro!
Now there's nothing for you to cry about.
Once i get the Queen of Sheba then you're free.
Im not crying because im afraid of dying.
Then why the tears?
Having a man like you as part of
our blood a relative in our family!
My mother grew up poor and miserable.
In a world with no love a Geisha.
Used and thrown into the flames.
And while staring at the Hinohara
mansion that was standing upon the hill
who was the little boy whose
hand she held as she died? It was me.
And on that day i knew i had to
become the owner of that mansion!
Poppa!
Reika! Why are you here?
Poppa tell me, why did you tell lies to
bring Chihiro here? Tell me poppa!
Reika! Don't ask questions. Let's go.
From now on we can go back
and live in peace like we used to.
NO!
You have to stay here to make
sure our little deal will go smoothly.
But boss!
That's not what you told me.
My part in this is over. Boss!
That's enough!
Joji. The Queen of Sheba
I assume you have it with you.
Let me see my sister.
Sister.
Joji give them the Diamond
it isn't worth the trouble.
In return. I want uncle
to leave the Hinohara family.
If he wont accept, that i rather die here.
Yes. I accept the conditions.
Joji give him the diamond. Together
we will have something more valuable.
If it's alright now well leave. Reika.
Whoa!
Poppa!
Joji!
Joji i have something to tell you.
That airplane accident involving your
parents was no accident it was me!
And your brother Toru I had a syndicate
from Hong Kong take him out cold.
Now i will take the Queen of Sheba to Hong Kong
and bring the Hinohara family into a new Dynasty.
Uncle...
You fools! Disrupt her ability to hear
so that she will lose her concentration!
Finish her with an injection.
Even an autopsy would not detect the poison.
No. Give her some Heroin
just short of a lethal dose.
Heroin is the ancient assassin
of morality and conscience.
Soon she will be crawling on
her knee's begging for more.
I'll send anyone to a hell worse than
death if they try to come against me.
Nobody is going to stop me!
How many days have we been in here?
Forgive me Joji-san! Poppa was
tricked... Chihiro is doomed!
Your father is not to blame.
Be brave.
People are born alone and die alone.
They struggle their entire lives.
In America my father told me so.
You've been here two days.
I bet you guys are getting pretty bored.
I'm here to make it interesting for you.
Your going on an Auschwitz honeymoon.
So. How's your Auschwitz honeymoon going?
It's not like Natzi gas. It's much better.
In ten minutes you'll both go crazy.
And then you will die...
Reika quick grab the whip!
Take care of Peter.
- But Joji!
- I have to find my sister.
Now go on.
Joji-san!
Sister.
Sister.
Sister!
Wake up it's me Joji-san!
Sister!
Joji..
Your still alive thank God.
Let's go. Let's leave this place forever.
Sister come.
Joji i cant go on.
Go ahead without me.
No way! Common.
I know it..
I'm going to die.
Sister.
What are you saying?
Sister!
Sister!
Joji. There are certain things in
this life you should never give into..
even if it means your life.
Take revenge for all of us.
Keep fighting for me and Toru.
Watch out!
Oh what beautiful clarity!
A fascinating stone! This is the very
Diamond i see in my dreams!
I had been searching for a Jewel
as precious this almost all of my life.
I'm glad that your satisfied.
And now I think that i
would like to see what you promised.
Something like this would be very
easy to bypass customs in Japan.
How very thoughtful of you.
Without a doubt this is good stuff.
I would say our little business
transaction was a success.
Where did Mr. Koshi move to?
There he is get him!
Welcome to Hong Kong.
And you. Just who are you
and why are you following me?
Because we are both after the same game.
My name is Tochikawa Shinksi.
Im with the Narcotics division of Interpol.
So your a Policeman?
Your brother Toru died right here.
His body was riddled with bullet holes.
Your Uncle is a lot
more ruthless than you think.
I'll advise you to let us handle it from here.
I refuse.
As an official i cannot allow
you to keep on interfering.
Just stay out of this.
This is something i have
to take care of personally.
Ok fine.
You leave me no choice.
Your under arrest.
Better be careful.
Think before you make your next
move you only have one life.
I'm none of your worry.
I'll get Ikki by myself.
Well do you even know where Ikki is?
Keep quiet and follow me.
Yo Chen-tung!
What do you guys want?
Your under arrest for violation
of international Narcotics law.
What's that?
Ikki..
Where is Ikki Hinohara!
I don't know!
Lung Tow..at my villa.
Lung Tow?
Ok ride's over Joji.
And now, to a fortune in
bananas we'll raise a toast.
Kampai!
Kampai!
Kampai!
Boss. They call this island the
Sleeping Beauty, it's not bad at all.
All that's left now is to mix our
bananas up with another shipment
and have them sent to Japan.
The election for your seat in
congress is getting pretty close.
I know that your gonna make it.
And then ill become secretary
of a congressman.
And then to the Minister
of Trade and Industry.
And after that the Secretary
of the Prime Minister.
Joji.
So you survived.
You've justified being my relative in blood.
Uncle.
And you, for your treacherous ambitions,
you've murdered the whole Hinohara family.
Only one bullet left.
Wouldn't it be better to
save the last bullet for yourself?
Wait a minute ou're my own nephew!
We both have the same Hinohara
blood flowing through our veins.
You're wrong!
I'm Joji Hibiki.
The Hinohara family died....
for something like this.
Joji Hinohara, you're under arrest.
-Take care of the rest.
- Yes.
So now you'll spend
the rest of your life in prison.
That's ok. I took
revenge for the Hinohara family.
Now that i'm all alone
I've got nowhere else to go.
That's not like you at all.
Because you're alone, wouldn't
you like to take off and fly away?
I thought Mr. Magic taught you
the trick to slip out of handcuffs!
Make sure you don't get
arrested by another Joker like me.
Tochikawa!
