1:18:01
to be asking such a question.
1:18:03
What is it?
1:18:05
Is there some particular reason
why your retainer Roppei
1:18:12
would meet such a terrible end?
1:18:16
Why do you ask?
1:18:19
One problem with blind folk,
1:18:22
especially those of us who are masseurs,
is that we have a keen nose.
1:18:51
Roppei was the only one...
1:18:54
the only one who knew
the face of our enemy.
1:18:59
Knowing neither name
nor anything else about our foe,
1:19:03
we needed Roppei to identify him.
1:19:06
Neither I nor Kume ever saw him.
1:19:09
That has to be why he killed Roppei.
1:19:13
I can't think of any other explanation.
1:19:18
Is your enemy still in this town, then?
1:19:22
He obviously was here
when Roppei was killed.
1:19:25
Whether he still is...
1:19:27
But so long as you
and your sister are here,
1:19:31
wouldn't he stick around
so he can kill you?
1:19:36
What would he gain from killing us?
1:19:40
We no longer have any way
to recognize him,
1:19:46
even if we come
face to face with him.
1:19:48
To kill us now would be
a purely gratuitous slaughter.
1:19:55
I see what you mean.
1:19:57
If that itchy nose of yours
has been satisfied,
