[Hayate The Combat Butler] Episode Seventeen

Maria.

Look.

This is a picture I took with Xiao Sa.

Does my expression look weird?

No, Xiao Sa and you look very happy.

Maria, Xiao Sa said he's using this picture as the wallpaper for his phone.

That's good, a lot of couples do that.

Maria, this is for you.

I found this at the beach.

Is that a shell from there?

Yes, when I went to see the sunrise

- I picked it up. - Then why didn't you take it out before?

I'll give it to the Mistress for you.

Maria.

I don't know why I picked up this shell.

But when I picked it up

I didn't want to give it to the Mistress.

I... I wanted to give it to you.

At that time, Xiao Sa probably liked me.

Xiao Sa, today, I want to eat a French ham sandwich.

No problem.

Mistress, you have to finish the lettuce salad too.

Do I have to eat lettuce?

Yes. It's not a problem. You can do it.

Stupid Xiao Sa. You dare to threaten me.

I spent my salary from this month

on model figurines, manga, and DVDs.

I've spent more than half of my salary

on just doujinshi (self-published works).

Do I want to buy the new one?

I don't care. I really like that bag.

The one that we saw last time.

You promised you would buy it for me.

I don't care. I don't care.

Honestly, I really want to spend money on a girlfriend.

But...

Gui Xue Lu, listen carefully.

I don't like your sister. It's...

It's...

Are you trying to say that you like me?

Asking like that makes me scared to confess, right?

I love you the most. Bye bye.

You're only buying one today, Mr. Jin?

Then I'll give you a ten percent discount. Don't tell my boss.

You're so nice.

It's because my boyfriend promised to buy a bag for me.

That's great.

What is your boyfriend like?

My boyfriend? He's well-known at school.

He's popular with the girls.

Then you must know what men must do to be popular with the girls, right?

I don't really know anything about that.

But unpopular people just aren't charming.

Also, people argue that

unpopular men are boring.

And people will hardly notice their presences.

I knew it.

I basically guessed that.

I've always been like this.

My physical appearance, brain, and physical abilities

aren't special in any way.

I also don't care for the newest trend.

I think that it's very embarrassing when men working hard to appeal to women

so, I'm always playing with model figurines.

When people are talking about girlfriends, I'm making model figurines.

Talking about girlfriends, making model figurines.

Making model figurines.

Because I'm always making model figurines

no women ever noticed me.

Except for her.

Did you make these model figurines?

- Yes. - You're good.

You're skillful with your hands.

Jacky helped me.

You're funny.

Do you want to learn how to do it?

Can I?

I'm very clumsy.

Jacky can teach you.

All right, okay. Hi, Jacky.

Jacky, teach me. So right now, I should...

I broke its leg. I'm sorry.

You have to introduce yourself to Jacky

- so you two aren't strangers. - Hello, I'm Gui Xue Lu.

Jacky, I'm sorry. I broke its leg.

What should I do now to put it back?

Actually, Jacky is me. I'll teach you.

Okay.

She's just as silly as she was before.

But she was happier and more energetic.

She was also even more firm. Everyone liked her in our class.

So, you had a crush on her since high school.

That means you've liked her for a decade.

Yes.

Isn't it dumb?

No, it's not dumb.

Really?

- It's disgusting. - It's not disgusting.

Mr. Jin, it's ten percent off. I have to give you change.

Ways to heat up your love.

A love expert tells you how to heat up your love.

Be careful. Don't be together every day.

You've to leave the other person once in a while

so that she'll notice your presence.

Is that so?

So, I used the wrong method all along.

Director Lin, Director Lin.

Director, it's me, Jin Zhi Jie.

Yes, I've a sore throat. May I take a day off?

Yes. All right, I will.

Okay, thanks.

What is this?

Scrambled eggs with tomato.

Mistress, you never had it before?

I didn't think tomato and egg

would go good together.

It's delicious and light.

I eat it at home often.

It's true. It really is delicious.

The sourness of the tomato stresses the sweetness of the egg.

It's cooked just right.

This is the first time I ate such a light stir-fried dish.

Mistress, you don't know how to cook but you sure know a lot about food.

Of course.

Do you think the two of them will kiss?

Young Master Ju Xuan. Young Master Ze Yu.

Duan Mu Ze Yu, you're very nosy. How annoying.

If I didn't say that, and Ju Xuan sees you two actually doing something

I'm afraid he'll intervene with violence.

Stop talking.

All right, if you bother people dating, you'll be kicked to death by a horse.

I don't want to die that way.

- Then let's go. - Wait.

What are you doing?

You didn't exterminate spirits, you don't need to recharge.

Even though I lost my ability and don't need to recharge

I suddenly really missed hugging Xiao Zhi.

You're the one that said you wanted to get rid of me last time.

You really hit me.

If you don't want to be kicked to death, then you better quickly leave.

I feel heartbroken for Ju Xuan.

Why did you drag me in this? Let's go.

Young Master Ju Xuan, Young Master Ze Yu, take care.

Mistress, you said you didn't have friends.

But Young Master Ju Xuan and Young Master Ze Yu

really care about you. You have two very good friends.

Who needs friends like them?

But, Xiao Sa, don't you have friends?

No.

But, she counts.

Who?

Xiao Na.

A girl?

Even though we only interacted for a few days

she taught me a lot of things.

She forced me to face everything

so, I can become stronger

and not be defeated by fate.

Was she your girlfriend?

I guess you can say that.

I was only nine years old then.

All right, since it happened when you were nine

don't think about it too much.

Now that you're with me

you can't cheat on me.

Yes, Mistress. I definitely won't cheat on you.

How did I spend my salary so quickly?

No wonder why people say that salaries are like periods.

They only come once a month.

Also, they won't last more than five days.

What a strange theory.

What do I need to do in order to become a rich person?

That's right. Every student at Bai Huang comes from a very wealthy family.

If I made each of them donate...

NT$100, then I'll quickly become very rich.

I need to quickly go to my office and make a donation box.

Donate NT$100 and help me buy alcohol.

Sounds great!

Mei Xi, I have a dream.

I would like to ask you for a big favor.

Gui Xue Lu, I followed you the entire day.

If you're not thinking about money, then you're thinking about alcohol.

I think that even if I left you, you wouldn't have noticed my presence.

Mr. Jin.

Mr. Jin.

Mr. Jin, what are you doing?

I'm good friends with the birds.

Maria, what are you doing?

I'm looking for a shell.

I took it out yesterday

and forgot where I last placed it.

My memory is getting worse again.

Is that so? Let me help you look for it.

Mistress, it's okay. I can look for it myself.

You need to go to class tomorrow. Go sleep.

It's okay.

It's over there.

Maria, I found it.

This isn't the shell I gave you?

- This is... - What?

When Xiao Sa and you went to the beach

to see the sunrise for the first time

Xiao Sa gave that to me.

Mistress, don't misunderstand.

Xiao Sa said it was a thank you gift for helping him get the butler job.

He was just being polite. It's nothing.

I know. I'm going back to my room.

Mistress, I'm almost done. Wait for me.

Do you like Maria?

Mistress, why would you ask that?

Didn't you give Maria a shell?

You're talking about that?

Yes.

When I first saw Maria

I thought she was like an angel.

She's very warm and very pretty.

When I hear her voice

I feel very calm.

At first, I thought I liked Maria.

All right, stop talking.

But, I slowly realized that I had

a different feeling for someone else

that is different than what I felt towards Maria.

I started to be jealous when she praised Mu Rong Bing Shi.

I started to feel sad that she can't see a movie with me because she's sick.

My heart started to hurt when I see her sad and cry.

I want to be with her forever.

Forever and ever.

Xiao Sa.

Mistress, please believe me.

I feel close to Maria

but that's not love.

The one I like is you, Mistress.

I believe you.

But you have to tell that to Maria.

Even if it's you

I don't want Maria to be sad because of you.

Understood?

Yes.

Why did I remember the past?

Why?

Why did those perfect happy memories

now hurt me so much?

Xiao Na.

Xiao Sa, where did you go?

I haven't seen you in a long time.

Why are you so dirty?

Because I want to prove that I can give you happiness

so I went to work.

Work?

But no one was willing to let me work.

Xiao Sa.

But, Xiao Na, you have to believe me.

Even though I can't earn money now

I made this myself.

I'm using this flower ring to promise

that I would work hard

to prove my love to you.

Are you willing to accept me?

You're really dumb.

Wait.

This is a real proof of love.

You have to have two. Having one doesn't count.

- Why do you have these? - They belong to my parents.

Even though these are for adults, one day, when we grow up

and become suitable for the rings

- we have to be together forever. - So...

Xiao Na will leave the castle with me

and live with my parents.

Wait for me. I'll discuss this with my parents first.

Xiao Sa.

Why didn't you come back?

You promised me.

Why did you abandon me at the castle and not come back?

Why did you betray me?

Young Master Ze Yu, we can begin.

I don't want to!

I don't want to!

No!

That's not it! You can't!

Ze Yu.

- Ze Yu. - Don't!

- Ze Yu. - You can't!

Duan Mu Ze Yu!

Did you have a nightmare?

Rather than calling it a nightmare

I would call it a memory.

A memory?

It's been so many years, yet I still can't forget that image

nor that piercing cries of help.

What? Did you do something bad?

Yes, I did something very bad.

What are you talking about?

When I was nine

I sealed a little girl's memories.

But at that time, I couldn't completely control my power.

So, I made a mistake

and accidentally erased all that girl's memories.

Since then, I would occasionally dream of what happened then.

It was only when I recently lost my power

that I started dreaming about it again.

Who is that little girl?

I don't know.

But I've a feeling that she's going to find me soon.

- Why? - The seal on her memory

will disappear along with my ability.

The girl will slowly regain all her memories.

So, you're afraid she's going to get revenge.

If she does, she deserves her revenge.

Morning, Maria.

Xiao Sa.

May I ask you a question?

What's wrong?

Why did your parents send you a ring?

It has something to do with my childhood.

I told you about the little girl from my past.

She gave me that ring.

My parents pawned it to pay back some debt.

Because of that, I cried for three days.

They probably remembered how sad I was, so they redeemed it from the pawn shop.

Is that what you meant by betrayal?

No, that's not it.

Actually, I once promised Xiao Na

that I would take her away from the castle

so that we can live happily afterwards.

You forgot about your promise?

No, after the ring was pawned, I went back to look for Xiao Na.

But, she disappeared.

Her castle was demolished.

You went back?

But, in the end, before she left

I wasn't able to take her away from the castle

and be with her.

I've always been sad about that.

So that's what you meant by betrayal.

Maria.

Why are you suddenly asking these questions?

Because I want to know why you didn't return.

Why I didn't return?

- Maria, what are you saying? - I kept waiting for you.

You waited for me?

That's right.

Maria.

You're saying...

I was adopted by Master Di.

I don't remember anything before I was adopted.

So, I don't know who I am.

Maria isn't my real name.

You are...

Xiao Na?

I'm Xiao Na. Fiona.

Fiona.

Turns out, Maria is Xiao Na.

No wonder why I always feel warm and familiar towards Maria.

Xiao Na remembers everything.

But, I can't make up for my previous mistake.

Mistress.

What should I do?

I should tell the Mistress that Maria is Xiao Na.

Mistress.

I should discuss this with Maria first.

Rest for a bit. I made your favorite earl grey milk tea.

Boss.

I would like a chicken drumstick lunch-box.

All right. It'll be done soon.

For the free one, I want pork ribs.

There isn't a free one.

Boss, doesn't your store have a buy one, get one free promotion?

No. We don't have a buy one, get one free promotion.

Doing that would make us lose money.

That's strange.

Jin Zhi Jie said that it's this store.

Boss, are you being sexist when you sell lunches?

My colleague told me that your restaurant has a buy one get one free promotion.

Are you talking about Mr. Jin?

Yes. The tall, skinny, pale man that looks kind of feminine.

He's a frequent customer.

He always buys two lunches and pays for both of them.

There isn't a buy one, get one free promotion.

There isn't a buy one, get one free promotion?

Why did Jin Zhi Jie lie to me?

He was basically treating me lunch.

Miss, how many do you want today?

I...

I don't want any today. Thanks.

Are you doing well today?

Xue Lu. Xue Lu?

Hey, where are you?

Are you not at your desk?

I'm fine.

I'm fine?

What's wrong?

You seem gloomy today.

How did you know?

How did you know? Of course, I know.

It's a feeling.

What's wrong?

From the point of view of a man

if a man constantly secretly does things for you

but never tells you about them

it's because...

He has a secret crush on you.

What? Does someone have a secret crush on you?

You got lucky today. The restaurant by the intersection

has a buy one get one free promotion.

Then give me the free one.

- You can't ask me to pay you back. - Take it.

Thanks.

It must be a secret crush.

I'm confused. I'll talk to you next time. Bye bye.

[Xue Lu is offline.]

Bye.

Secret crush.

Slower, slower.

Does Gui Xue Lu know that I like her?

Does Jin Zhi Jie really like me?

[Bai Huang School's History]

Maria, may I come in?

How can I help you?

- I just want to tell you... - If you're only going to apologize

then I'm sick of hearing that.

But, Maria, I sincerely want to apologize to you.

When you're done, will we be able to go back to the past?

I'm sorry.

Even though I don't want to say it like this

we can't go back to the past.

Please forgive me.

I already promised to be with the Mistress.

Then what about the happiness you promised Xiao Na?

I'm sorry.

I don't want to talk anymore. Go work.

Maria.

My name is Fiona.

I'm sorry.

I'll call you Xiao Na from now on.

It doesn't matter what you call me.

Leave.

Xiao Na.

What is this?

'Naked Emmanuelle?'

Xiao Zhi, did you find what you want to watch?

I'm still looking. Go away.

I can go away but don't mess up the sorting of my DVDs.

I know.

Why are there adult films on the rack?

Terrible, Ju Xuan placed an adult film where kids can see it.

If a kid borrowed it

it'll traumatize them.

What should I do then?

Mistress.

Are you done?

Well... I'm still looking.

All right. I'll wait for you outside.

Okay.

Should I tell the Mistress without asking Xiao Na, that Maria is Xiao Na?

You're borrowing this many today?

Despicable. In order to prevent a kid from being traumatized

I borrowed that film.

I need to find a chance to destroy it.

How weird. Why did Xiao Zhi borrow this film?

Such a shameless DVD. Why would people film this?

I need to destroy it

so children don't see it.

But...

Before I destroy it, I should see how shameless it is.

Naked Emmanuelle zombies is believed to be

the zombies that were first sealed during the second world war.

Because the researchers were careless, the seal was broken.

It's not porn. It's a documentary.

The zombies came back to life

and began to self-propagate.

All the researchers there were killed.

Investigators said that judging by the time of death

the Naked Emmanuelle zombies

would take off the dead people's clothes and wear them.

They would categorize the dead people by size.

The zombies would eat the bigger ones first.

The smaller ones died more recently.

This film is basically a horror film.

The bad people that were chosen by the zombies

would have their skull cracked open

and the zombies would take out the mess...

They'll also take out the intestines from the stomach.

After freezing those, they'll add rice and steam it.

Naked Emmanuelle zombies

like to use grilled arms to play a finger guessing game.

The losers will be punished and have to eat all the toes.

That's so scary.

This has nothing to do with the film name.

Xiao Sa!

Mistress, what's wrong?

Only Xiao Sa can beat that thing.

What thing?

That thing is that thing.

What are you saying? I still don't know what that thing is.

It's a secret.

Despicable, I shouldn't have watched that movie.

If I tell Xiao Sa that I'm scared, he would definitely laugh at me.

Mistress.

Even though I'm not sure what happened, don't worry.

I won't leave you alone.

Xiao Sa.

Rest soon. I'm going to sleep.

No! Xiao Sa, aren't you lying like this?

You said you would accompany me, but you're leaving me now.

But it's time to sleep now.

But, I don't know when that thing would appear.

That thing?

You should get Maria to accompany you during nighttime, okay?

No, Maria can't beat that thing.

I don't care. Come with me.

- Quickly. - Mistress.

I can't act naturally in front of the Mistress and Xiao Sa like I did before.

Xiao Na, did you know that, today, the Mistress

was staring at a DVD with a naked girl at Young Master Ju Xuan's store.

Xiao Sa, you don't have to make small talk with me.

Hello, Mistress. I'm the new servant.

I heard from Master Di that you don't like to study

so, he asked me to tutor you.

People dumber than me don't have the right to tutor me.

Fine, I won't tutor you. Let's play chess.

If I win, you'll have to listen to me in the future, okay?

It's impossible for you to beat me in a game.

- You can keep dreaming. - All right, then let's start.

Mistress, I'll start first.

I won that match.

From then on, the Mistress listened to everything I said.

Do I really want to take revenge on such a difficult but cute Mistress?

Xiao Na, I'm returning this to you.

Why?

Perhaps someone deserves this ring more than me.

If you want to forget a memory

then don't expect the other person to treasure it.

Xiao Na.

I won't forget about our past.

But I know that I can't keep my promise to you.

So...

I'm returning the ring to you.

I'm sorry.

Xiao Sa.

You betrayed your promise to me just like that.

Without much care, you returned the ring that symbolized our love.

You didn't even ask why I lost my memories.

Do you really not have a place for Xiao Na in your heart?

You said you didn't have a crush, yet you have a couple ring.

Mistress, please return the ring to me.

No, tell me who you're giving it to first.

Mistress, I'm just temporarily holding that ring.

I don't care.

I'm interested in the male owner of this ring.

Quickly, tell me. Who is it?

I wish you wouldn't force me to say it.

If you don't tell me, I won't give it back you.

Okay, I'll tell you.

Are you going to throw paint on the door?

So what if I am? The store owner isn't sensible.

I told him to sell it but he wouldn't.

I'm just teaching him a lesson.

It's none of your business.

Maria is Xiao Na.
