1:12:00
No, I cannot
do that.
1:12:03
It might be a disheveled hut, but for
me, it's my one and only castle.
1:12:07
By going home to my castle, I
can sleep the way I want to...
1:12:10
...with my knees
in my arms!
1:12:43
Please excuse us for coming
in while you were away.
1:12:54
We would like to make a formal
request of you, Niiro.
1:12:57
A request?
1:12:58
A request?
Correct.
1:13:00
We'd like you to assassinate
the traitor in our midst.
1:13:04
A traitor?!
Who is it?
1:13:08
A former Yada clansman from
Joshu, Kurihara Einosuke.
1:13:11
What?!
1:13:15
It can't be true!
1:13:18
Besides, what evidence
do you have?!
1:13:21
As they say, "Before accusing,
question seven times!"
1:13:26
Actually, Niiro... to be honest,
we suspected you too at first.
1:13:30
But, we found that there were
no grounds to suspect you...
1:13:33
...and that Kurihara Einosuke is the
traitor. We apologize for this.
1:13:36
Why do you say that Kurihara Einosuke
is the traitor?! Explain!
1:13:40
Are you familiar
with his wife?
1:13:42
Yes, I am. She is an admirable,
wonderful wife.
1:13:45
What about her older sister?
1:13:46
What about her older sister?
Her sister? No, I don't know her.
1:13:49
The sister of Kurihara's wife is named
Chiyo... She is the Lady Ochiyo...
1:13:53
...a concubine of Matsudaira Sahyono-
suke, Lord of the Yada clan in Joshu!
1:13:56
What?!
1:13:57
What?!
Upon learning this, we too were stunned.
1:13:59
No... We were being
too trusting.
