Good and Evil

Have you heard anything about
what happened to your son?
Karan, I understand this must hurt.
But you need to be strong.
Thank you, Yoming.
I appreciate your support.
But could you let me be alone right now?
I'll check with my online contacts again.
Tsk.
Sion is safe.
He escaped to the West District.
Rat.
Wait here!
Near LK-3000
Latch Bill, 3rd Floor
Can't be positive. —K
Good and Evil
Thief!
Rat!
Hmm?
Hmph.
Rat
Latch Bill is the name of a newspaper.
I've located someone who used to work there.
And he has an interesting connection to No. 6.
Boy!
Hey!
W-What do you want?
You have such unusual hair, boy.
Say, want to have some fun together?
Have some fun
I'm sor—
What's so scary about a dead body?
They've already called for a pick-up team.
Now let's get back to—
Sorry, but could you return him?
He belongs to me.
Hmph! No wonder!
But I'm charging for the kiss.
Keep the change.
Move it.
Rat, who was that woman?
A whore.
A whore
That's right! The lady
A dead lady was lying back there.
She said they called a pick-up team!
Forget it.
What's a pick-up team?
You're seriously pissing me off!
Listen up
I have something to explain to you.
There's no one here to save your ass.
Stop asking questions.
And learn to protect yourself!
Found ya!
You thought that little stunt
would count as payment?
Oh?
This guy isn't bad.
Provide us a little service,
and we'll call it even
Run!
Bastard!
Wait, damn it!
Rat, is this the real world?
This is only the beginning.
It isn't entirely as bad as you made it out to be.
You saved me again.
I was saving myself.
Anyway, we're here.
You sleaze!
The wedding's off!
Ouch
Are you Rikiga?
The former Latch Bill reporter.
Who are you guys?
Eve!
Eve?
Heh, you know me?
I'm a fan. A big fan.
I saw your play the other day.
It was magnificent!
But why are you here?
Rat, your real name is Eve?
Hell, no.
That's my stage name.
So that means you're an actor
Do you know a woman named Karan?
You guys know Karan?
She's my mother.
Huh?
I'm Sion, Karan's son.
I see the resemblance.
It's true.
You are Karan's son.
Karan
Let's not stand around.
Come with me.
Oh, what would you like to drink?
Uh
How do you know my mother?
Karan
Karan's handwriting.
She remembered me
What? You were close?
She turned me down when I asked her out.
Not surprising.
You have a sharp tongue, Eve!
Just answer Sion's question.
That's Karan and me.
She was still a student,
when she came to see me
about a column I'd written.
It was on No. 6.
On No. 6?
There was always something fishy about the place.
I was digging around for information.
You've abandoned your original convictions,
to live in debauchery.
Just like the city.
Eve!
I was a big fan of yours!
Past tense?
I quit.
Never thought you'd turn out
to be an arrogant prick.
Don't get your panties in a twist, chief.
Just look at this fancy crib you've got.
You're pimping out girls to No. 6 officials.
Dogkeeper told you?
You have a good nose for business
The people suffocating to death in No. 6
are bound to need a release.
End result You get to live in luxury.
Interested in teaming up?
Sorry, but I'm not interested in picking up girls.
That's not what I meant.
Customers would line up to have you.
You want me to whore myself out?
Their appetites have no bounds.
The job pays much better than acting.
Are you insane?
Too much alcohol killing off brain cells?
Stop posing.
You're just as bad as I am.
No need to act coy.
Shut up!
How can you say such vulgar things?
Have you no shame?
Apologize!
Apologize to him!
Sorry, I was wrong
Apologize to Rat!
That's enough, Sion.
You're gonna kill him!
Sion!
Hey, Sion!
What's wrong, Sion?
Why are you getting so worked up?
Stupid!
He insulted you
Said all those mean things!
Why aren't you angry?
Stupid
I'm really mortified
Sion, you shouldn't shed tears for someone else.
You should only cry or fight for your own good.
Now, let's go home.
Wait!
I'm sorry!
Sion, I'll look after you.
I'm sure that's what Karan wants!
This man
Taken with the
founding members.
Not yet.
Wait for Rat to return.
Rat
Where were you?
Was it related to the man in that picture
Stop pestering me.
But
I want to know.
Know what?
About you.
I want to know more about you.
If something's bothering you, I want to know!
What can you feel?
The beating
of your heart.
That's right.
I'm alive. I'm standing right here.
That should be enough!
Sion, you and I are strangers.
Strangers don't need to know each other's secrets.
But why?
We'd become attached.
We wouldn't be strangers anymore.
You don't want that happening, do you?
Why not?
You couldn't kill me if we became enemies.
Like I said
After you learn the truth,
it's possible you'll still choose to protect No. 6.
If that's your decision,
you'll be my enemy.
Rat
What? One of Dogkeeper's hounds.
Did something happen to him?
Sion, we have work.
Wash faster, damn it!
You're spending forever on one dog.
Well, you rent these dogs as blankets, right?
So we should be sure they're clean.
It doesn't matter.
My customers are all as dirty as strays themselves.
Dogkeeper, you shouldn't insult your customers.
I'm just telling it how it is.
They're still human.
Still human?
What a laugh!
Never heard anyone say that before!
Those dirty customers are the same as us?
That's right.
You're the same as me?
That's right.
The people in No. 6 are the same as us?
That's right.
Sion, you're gonna die.
If you really believe what you're saying,
you won't last long here.
That's what Rat always says.
Dogkeeper, are you friends with Rat?
Friends?
Only an idiot would try to be friends
with that heartless bastard.
I just sell him the information my dogs fetch.
Oh, wait
He sings for me sometimes.
Sings?
When a dog's on its deathbed, suffering,
he sings until the dog calms down
and stops breathing.
His voice carries away their souls
Like the wind carries away a flower's petals.
The wind
That's what happened when my mother died.
Your mother's dead
She was a dog.
A dog raised me.
As a baby, I was abandoned here.
But my mother kept me warm,
fed me her milk
But she was a dirty mutt.
Rat.
What was that about my mother?
I dare you to repeat it!
Don't get so mad
What's going on here?
Telling Mr. Oblivious here your life story?
That isn't like you.
Why are you here?
Don't tell me you got concerned,
so you came to fetch the Clueless Boy.
Don't make me laugh.
I just wanted to see if he was
making himself useful.
Somehow, I doubt that.
Hamlet.
You came, too?
Hamlet?
His name
Because he likes listening to Hamlet.
Don't name it!
You refuse to name them, so
Cravat.
Moonlit.
Cravat is a kind of deep-fried pastry.
His fur is the same color.
I named this one Moonlight because he reminds me of a moonlit night.
Talking to you gives me a headache
It's because you're always so irritable.
Why do you think I'm so irritated?
You're the one who's
Ah, Rat!
Sion, are you two always like this?
Huh? Why?
I've never seen him this way.
He never shows emotion.
Who's there?
Took you a while to notice me
That's rare.
Something on your mind?
What do you want?
Don't play dumb.
You know that I never forgive
anyone who insults my mother.
Revenge? Against me?
Don't make me laugh.
We'll see about that.
By the way, about Sion
He's definitely an oddball.
He has a way of throwing you off balance.
That's why I ended up
telling him about my mother.
And you insulted my mother to piss me off.
In other words, you were jealous.
That's bullshit!
You lose, Rat.
You've gone soft.
The one with something to protect always loses.
Wasn't that your creed?
These puppies are watchdogs.
You can't take them in a straight-up fight.
Get him!
Move it!
Call off the dogs.
Or else
Or else?
Rat!
Oh? Clueless Boy's here to pick you up.
What will you do?
Cut my throat and show him my corpse?
Your claws aren't so sharp anymore.
You're not the same person you used to be.
This burden will drag you down
Well, see ya.
Rat, there you are.
What are you doing?
What? It was getting late
Rat, my mom's in No. 6.
You can laugh at me if you want.
But I'll never be able to forget her.
But
I want to live out here.
What's your reason?
I find myself drawn to you.
Sion, I've been thinking.
Uh-huh.
Your linguistic comprehension
is worse than a chimpanzee's.
What's that supposed to mean?
I'm so glad I get to eat your muffins again, Mrs. K!
Sorry for worrying you.
I'm fine now.
Mom. Sorry.
I'm alive.
Sion
Thank you, Rat.
I watch the world.
The sun shines.
Stars twinkle.
Plants grow.
Animals feel.
And humans have souls.
I watch the soul.
The soul can hear the voice of God
Taste its sweet fragrance.
Savor its words.
Touch its fingertips.
I watch the world.
I watch the soul.
I realize that the light guides my footsteps.
Angel of Death
