Chen Liang!

We need to hurry!

Hurry up!

Hey!

- Hey!
- Damn it!

The fucking Japanese is coming down!

Let's get out of here!

What the fuck are you doing?

Leave it! Let's go!

Hey! Stop it!

Leave if you want. I'll finish this.

You go first. Quick.

Hurry up.

- Hey, you! Wait!
- Go.

Chen Liang. Come.

- Damn.
- Why is this only 5,000 yen?

- What the hell?
- What the hell?

- Hey, there's only 5,000 yen here.
- What?

It's only 5,000 yen.

- It should be 35,000 yen, right?
- Yes. It's 30,000 yen short.

- Zhao Fang!
- Coming!

- What's he saying?
- What's wrong, Yang Zhao?

A cell phone and an ID card
cost 60,000 yen.

Thus, his payment should be 35,000 yen.

- It's 30,000 yen short.
- I see. It's 30,000 yen short.

The price for the fake ID and the cell
is 60,000 yen, so--

No, it's not.

- It's 90,000 yen.
- It's 90,000 yen.

This ID isn't just any ID.

We acquired it from an existing person.
This is a "real" fake ID.

This?

He ordered it himself after I explained.

- Got it?
- Oh, I see.

He says that you ordered it
by yourself, right?

Did you order it?

I did not know. I ordered this
because he said it is safer to use.

I didn't know it costs 30,000 yen more.

He made a mistake.

You should've asked me first!

Prices are different for different IDs,
but it's a waste to buy the expensive one.

- How could I know that?
- We ordered it as he asked us to.

Would you please give him
the money in advance?

- He is going to work with us anyway.
- What is he saying?

He is asking to have some payment
in advance for the next job.

When can he start?

When can you start to work?

- Tomorrow.
- He is okay to work starting tomorrow.

- Tomorrow, both of them, right?
- Yes.

- Both of you can come tomorrow, right?
- Yes, for sure.

All right, then.

Here's 30,000 yen.

- Let's go.
- Yes.

Let me see what ID you got.

"Liu Wei."

You paid more than enough
for the new name.

Li Hai came to our house yesterday.
He brought a box of milk.

It tastes really good.

Do you remember him?
He was a friend of your late father.

Mom, I have to go to work.

Your grandma invited him to come in,
but he just stood by the door,

talked for a little while and then left.

- Has Grandma gone to work already?
- Yes, she has.

What are you learning now?

I'm assembling electronic control units.
Doing things with sensors.

Li Hai told us about his son.
He also works in Beijing as a manager.

But your job in Japan
is no worse than his.

You are now in the technology industry
and you can speak a foreign language.

I think you are better than him.

Yes.

Do you still stay up late every day?

Don't stay up late. Take care of yourself.

How is your leg? Has it recovered?

Yes, it's okay now.

- Hi, Liu Wei...
- Yang Zheng?

I bought something for Zhang Yun online.
It will be delivered tonight.

Can you accept it for me?

Around 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

- But--
- Sorry, you dialed the wrong number.

Oh, sorry!

- Okay.
- Okay.

Have some.

- Yang Zheng still didn't contact you?
- Not yet.

Can you ask him
to give me a new phone number?

He is asking if it's possible
to change the number.

No way.

Good morning.

Where did you meet Yang Zheng?

- There are eight cards, so...
- We interned in the same company.

- two cards per machine. Four all together.
- Okay.

- Collect the money on that day.
- Where are you from?

Henan province.

I'm from Beijing.
Have you ever been there?

Not yet.

Hi, Sorry.

- My phone ran out of batteries.
- You are always late!

What were you doing?

I overslept.

Did you check where to get the money?

It's from seven places, right?

No, eight.

Sichuan, Beijing, and Guangdong.

There is no Henan local flavor.

- What about your hometown Shandong?
- No.

Pork. Let's take this.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Let's welcome our new member

Chen Liang.

- Welcome!
- Thank you!

Welcome to pigs' hell hut!

There are two kinds of pigs,
the smart and the dumb.

Guess what the smart pigs do in the hut?

- Study?
- Study?

Isn't it sleeping?

Is it eating?

Sleep? Eat? What are you talking about?

Smart pigs do exercise

for them not to gain weight.
Fat pigs are food for others.

Let's all be lean pigs!

- Lean pigs.
- You got the point. Let's drink!

- Cheers.
- Welcome, Liang.

- Welcome.
- Thank you.

Bottom's up.

Hand me some of that food, that one...

- What is she saying?
- We finally found a job,

- since you asked us to find one.
- Today's job is easy.

Could you come to the office,
so we could talk about it?

- Let me explain the conditions...
- Let's just eat.

Okay. Please.

- The work is in Oishida town...
- What is this for?

- the salary is 160,000 yen a month
- Have some fried chicken.

- and lodging is already included.
- Cheers.

- Would you please be so kind
- What are they busy with?

- to call me back?
- No idea.

- Thank you.
- What are they doing?

- What did she say?
- Finding jobs.

Tell me!

What is it?

- There is a job for Liu Wei.
- What kind of job?

You'd better not go.

It's too risky, you need to
pretend to be Liu Wei to do the job.

You'll be deported immediately
if they find out.

Is it riskier than stealing water heaters?

Hello!

It's so hot today too.

Why don't you refresh yourself
with some cold juice?

Thank you for coming!

Excuse me! This is the police.
Do you have a minute?

The car is over there.

Do you speak Japanese?
All right. Let's go.

Hello.

My name is Nagasue
in the Yamagata International Association.

We finally found a job.
Since you asked us to find one.

Could you come to the office

so that we could talk about the details?

Let me explain the conditions...

- Tomorrow would be fine for him.
- Really? Maybe it's too sudden.

Okay, I will call and ask them.

She is going to ask over the phone now.

I'm Qiu Jingwen. Nice to meet you.

Lui Wei.

- Are you from Taiwan?
- Yes.

Where in China are you from?

From Beijing...

I was there last summer! It was so hot.

We visited Tiananmen Square.

There are two stations
on either side of it.

I thought it would be only
a three-minute walk,

but they are actually very far away,
we walked for like ten minutes.

It was exhausting.

Then we went to the Forbidden City.

I thought it would take
about two hours to tour the city around...

So, how big is this shop?
How many employees work there?

- Yes.
- I don't know. Let me take a look.

Yes, from Thursday.

Two employees.

- Sure. I will relay it to him.
- Just two. Probably not a big shop.

What made you want to be a soba chef?

It's unusual. No Chinese people
is interested in Japanese soba.

- Is it a soba restaurant?
- Yes.

I'm okay with that.

Chen Liang, come here!
Can I have a minute?

Okay.

My relatives also went to Japan to work.
It's me who paid for their travel.

They paid me back in a year.
It is not a big deal.

Why don't you speak?

What's your plan?

My mother is old and not in good health.

I wonder if my mother and grandma
will be all right after I leave.

If you are not self-dependent,
you cannot help your family.

My wife will return
to help me with my business soon.

As our baby grows older,
she has more free time.

Chen Liang, we may no longer
need your help here.

If you don't decide to go.

I will talk to someone else.

Could you try this out?

Look.

You put this much.

- Would you serve them one by one?
- Yes, I will.

Put this curtain here
before the restaurant opens.

Yes.

Like this.

Put this here...

- Take this to table number three.
- Okay.

I said that way, remember?

- Say, "Welcome." Okay?
- Yes, "Welcome."

- Welcome.
- Nice to meet you.

I'll take it.

He was looking forward to having you here.

How did you know about this restaurant?

Hello, this is Yura Soba.

- Thank you.
- Yes?

It's been a while.

I've been waiting for you to come over.

Yes, okay.

Thank you.

Bye!

Once I finish making soba,
you need to deliver it to this place.

Kaori! Show him this address on the map.

Sure.

And here in this bag is the spare change.

- Got it?
- Got it.

Push like this.

- Push.
- Got it.

Be careful.

- You must be careful!
- Yes!

- But in a hurry!
- Yes!

- Hello!
- Coming!

Thank you very much.

Here is the soba.

Put it here.

I'm still assembling
electronic control units, the sensors.

Are you making any progress?
How long have you been learning it?

Well...

You see, it's a difficult thing.

Really? You need to do your best.

Have you mentioned
our car repair shop to your boss?

Your grandma and I look forward
to you coming back.

When you come back,
you can repair cars by yourself.

I will.

Do your best, okay?

Mom, I have to go.

Okay, do your job.

Go.

- Here you are.
- Thank you.

Liu...

It takes a long time
to become a good soba chef.

Hang in there.

Yes.

Let's eat.

Thank you for the food.

Enjoy your meal.

Help yourself.

It's written on your CV that
you're from Beijing. Are you?

Yes.

- Hey, Kaori.
- What?

- You cut too big.
- Yes, this is my specialty.

So now, Beijing is a big city

full of skyscrapers.

Isn't it?

I want to revisit Beijing before I die.

Dad was born in Beijing.

I was just a baby then,

I don't remember the place really well.

Liu, this is for you.

My brother left these clothes.
You can wear them.

Thank you so much.

This room's ceiling is very low.
Sorry about that.

Dad cleaned the room very carefully.

You can use the living room
if it's too cramped in here.

Understand? Feel free to use it.

See you tomorrow.

- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.

I'm sorry.

Don't oversleep tomorrow morning!

Put that bag

over there.

That bag, there!

- Okay?
- Yes.

- This one.
- Yes.

No. Not like that.

You'll hurt your lower back. Look at me.

Hold it from here,
like when carrying a baby in your arms.

- Okay?
- Yes.

Your grandma is old

and I'm not in good health.

If you go to Japan, how should we live?

Mom, give me three years.

I will study and work there

and I will come back with a lot of money,
so we can reopen Dad's repair shop.

Then you and Grandma
will have a good life.

It's easier said than done!

There is no devoted piety in your heart.

If your dad were alive,
he would be so angry.

How are you going to explain it
to your grandma?

Mom.

They asked me to make a decision
by tomorrow.

If not, they will have someone else.

Is this job in Japan even real?

- It's better not to tell your grandma yet!
- Shu Zhen!

- Shu Zhen!
- Your grandma is back.

You haven't gone to work yet?

It's my day off today.

Today is your day off?

You should do some part-time job.

Aren't you ashamed
you can't even live by yourself?

Until when will I have to
take care of the both of you?

I cannot think of it.

I was not expecting to live
my old age like this.

Mom, stop complaining!

He is trying his best to look for a job!

You are always like that.

Why are you siding with him?

Hello!

Hello!

It's hard to walk up here, isn't it?

It must be hard to climb the stairs?

Why do you speak Chinese?

I knew it!

I'm learning Chinese now.

Are you going to China?

I don't know yet, but...

If I pass the test.

I'm Hazuki

and you?

My name is...

Liu Wei.

Liu Wei?

I'm hungry, Liu Wei.

Hurry up.

Liu.

Could you put this at the entrance?

Sure.

Tomorrow is my mom's memorial service.

- Memorial?
- Yes.

On this day 22 years ago,
my mom passed away.

Do you see my dad praying
in front of her altar every morning?

Like a funeral?

Well, kind of.

- Don't forget to put it there.
- Got it.

I'll try asking.

Chen Liang, you're not eating.

Sorry?

Help yourself.

My workplace has prepared dinner for me.

He has to eat later at his job.

You are a loyal worker.

How long are you going to be there?

Are you going to continue your job there?

Chen Liang.

I'm going back to China.

I don't want to stay here anymore.

What about your debt?

Don't you want to go back?

You know there's no future in Japan.
I can't live here anymore.

He is telling him about the job now.

What about Yang Zheng?

Yang Zheng is...

I don't know about him.

There's a job which will
bring us a lot of money overnight.

Did you tell him?

I did.

Ask him if he's interested.

Are you in?

This work is really good.

Some of my friends did it
and earned a lot of money.

Seems like he is not interested.

I will talk to him later.

We still have some time.

You can't force him.
We'll find someone else.

Excuse me.

I'm sorry but a lot of smoke
is coming this way.

We are currently eating.

What?

Hey.

You don't need to stop.

- Excuse me!
- Yes, coming!

Is this a non-smoking restaurant?

It's totally okay. You can smoke.

I knew it.

Chen Liang, did you hear that?

We chose this restaurant
because it allows us to smoke.

You can smoke here.

He's just looking down on us,
he thinks he's such an important guest.

Don't listen to him.

Here, smoke.

It's okay, smoke.

Excuse me. The check, please.

Thank you!

I'm home!

I was waiting for you!

Liu, here!

These futons, can you take these to Dad?

Sure!

Thank you!

Over there!

- It's the room in the back.
- Okay.

Thank you.

Liu!

Yes?

Coming.

Thank you.

Hello, good evening!

Kyoko! Hello! Welcome!

Dad, they are here!

Long time no see.

It was a long trip, right?

Oh, thank you.

Come in.

Oh, yes!

Where is your luggage?

We left them at the hotel.

Why? You said you were going to stay here.

Oh, Dad, good evening!

Sorry for not being in touch for so long.

You must be tired.

Please put down your luggage and relax.

I've got something for you.

- This shop is 100 years old and...
- Take off your shoes already.

- everything is handmade.
- Hurry up!

It is a very small shop.
There was a dining space inside but...

Liu, let me introduce

my little brother, Kohki.

I told you on the phone
about him. Remember?

His name is Liu Wei.
Dad and I call him Liu.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, too.

We should talk before dinner.

All the food is already served,
the sashimi as well.

I came back to talk.

- Kyoko is waiting for us.
- She is okay!

- How can you say that?
- It's okay, we will finish soon.

- We won't!
- Yes, we will!

We need time to fix it.

We cannot waste more time.

- Why do you say that?
- It's a simple matter!

- No, we should talk to each other!
- It's a very simple matter.

What's that simple matter

about?

It's time to close this restaurant.

I'm the one to decide when to retire.

We are getting nowhere.

I'm going now.

Hey, wait! We're not done yet!

Why are you always like this?

You should face dad!

No, he's always like that!
How are we supposed to talk?

You promised
we would all listen to each other.

How long are you going to stay here?

You're wasting your life!

I'm fine here!

Why did he hire a Chinese
at a time like this?

What? Stop talking like that!

Does he need that Chinese guy?

What is he thinking?

He is not "that Chinese," he has a name!

His name is Liu Wei. Call him by his name!

- Kaori.
- Yes?

Isn't he strange?

No, he is not! He works very hard!

I saw him earlier in a tavern.
He was with some strange guys.

Did you eat already before coming here?

Didn't I tell you we would eat together?

It's impossible to eat together
in this situation!

Dad made a great effort
to prepare it for you two!

Who cares? I prefer talking than eating.

Then you should first respect your father!

I don't think he is my father!

How can you say that?

He doesn't want to talk to me.

Neither do you!

He is so selfish!

He came back only after Mom died
and reopened mom's restaurant.

You don' know...

because you are in Tokyo...

You don't know...

how I've been feeling...

I finished cleaning.

Thank you.

Liu.

Why don't you smoke here?

Sure.

Thank you very much.

Burn the incense, please.

Why do you work at a soba restaurant?

What do you want to do
after you master soba?

Well,

I want to own a restaurant.

Your own? Where would it be?

In China.

- In China? Beijing
- Yes.

Yes.

Then I could work for you,

because I applied to a school in Beijing.

Thank you for the 500 yen.

All right.

You'll be called by this number, 14.

Please receive your item then.

Four...

Four... ten.

- It should be "fourteen."
- "Fourteen."

Your breath

Thank you very much!

- Why do you know this song?
- Finally I met a soulmate in life...

- Every Chinese can sing it!
- Really!

With no regret...

- Thus, I beg you
- Number 14!

- Thank you for waiting.
- As long as you are with me...

- Thank you. Here's your order.
- I always care about you

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

It looks good!

Be careful!

No.

- You don't have to pick it up. It's okay.
- Really?

- Is it okay?
- Yes, It is okay.

It's ready!

A spare bowl, please.

You know he is capable of nothing.

But what can you do about it?

You care capable of nothing.

You are going to leave
your handicapped mother and go to Japan?

Are you even human?

I have been telling him to look for a job,
and he always said he can't find any.

He told me that he found one today.

I was grateful that he finally
got a decent job.

But as it turns out,
you are planning to go to Japan.

Stop being a fool!

Even if you were only half as good
as your father,

I would still regard you
as our descendant.

I think it will be good for him
to go to Japan!

He is going to earn money
and learn new skills.

Don't be naive! Reality is not like that!

Chen Liang, explain it thoroughly
to your grandma.

Do not be silly!

If he goes, we will be left alone,
how are we supposed to live by ourselves?

He is so different from his father!
He always leaves everything incomplete!

You know it too, don't you?

I begged my friend to hire him,

but he quit without saying a word.

Look what he's doing now!

He's only helping his friend's wife
during her pregnancy leave.

You are capable of nothing
and yet you dream of going to Japan.

Do you know how much it will cost?

He is going to Japan to make money!

He told me he will save money
and reopen his father's repair shop.

Let him go!

- Do it like this.
- Not like this?

No.

- No.
- No.

Why do Chinese often send
voice messages, instead of texting?

It's faster than texting.

Really? Show me.

Where does your name "Hazuki" come from?

Where does your name "Hazuki" come from?

Because I was born in August.

Because I was born in August.

Is that it?

That's it.

- How is it written?
- Yes.

Hand me that.

The month of leaves?

In August...

When?

Fifteenth.

- Fifteen.
- Fifteen.

I won't forget it.

There's a local festival on that day.

Shall we go together?

Yes!

Dance!

Looks good on you!

Are you having fun?

Yes!

Are you thirsty?

I'll buy you a drink.

- Really?
- Yes!

Thanks.

- Beer?
- Yes.

Two beers.

- Which one?
- Corona.

- Do you drink a lot?
- I lost...

You lost what?

My wallet is missing.

Oh, my god. Really?

We can find it.

Are you sure?

- Where are you going?
- Hurry up! We might find it!

- Where?
- Koban!

- What is that?
- Police station!

- It's okay!
- No, it's not!

- Yes, it's okay!
- We should go to the police!

Forget it!

Hazuki!

Hazuki!

Hazuki!

Morning!

Good morning!

Have you ground this already?

Yes, I did.

All right!

Have you reported your stolen wallet
to the police yet?

- I'm sorry.
- My apologies!

Liu, it's okay. Bring a new plate!
I'll clean up here.

I'm sorry.

- I'm very sorry! Are you okay?
- Yes, we're fine.

Welcome!

Be more careful, all right?

Yes.

Liu Wei, are you okay?

Why don't you respond?

I wanted to tell you in person.
I passed the test for Beijing.

I will be waiting for your reply.

Chen Liang, by the time you come back,

we will have three kids already,
a big family!

In your dreams! How can you
put all the kids in this small car?

Three kids won't be a problem!
I want five kids!

By the way, what will you do in Japan?
Will you marry a Japanese girl?

I just want to earn some money
to open up the repair shop again.

I might even be able to repair
this clunker.

By the time you come back,
I will have a Tesla car.

Five kids will all fit in it.

You will not be able to repair it.
It's like a computer.

What is a Tesla?

You don't know what a Tesla is?
It's a hybrid car.

No, it's not. It's an electric car.

Oh, you are talking nonsense again!

Like this?

Lift it up a little.

Ma'am, when I count from one to three,
please look back!

Pull the veil a bit further.

Oh, that's good!

- Wait for my call.
- Like this?

- Good. Ma'am, please wait for my call.
- Okay.

Three, two, one!

All right!

Okay, not bad, but...

- One more time?
- Yes!

I mean...

Throw it as high as you can.

As high as you can.

Young couples, try to look happier! Smile!

Yes, that's good!

Okay! On my count.

Three, two, one!

Okay! That's beautiful! Very good!

Excuse me!

Yes?

- Excuse me!
- Coming!

- I'm very sorry to keep you waiting...
- Yes?

Hiroshi has already
delivered it a while ago.

Everyone is already having it now.

Excuse me, can we order?

Wait a moment, please.

Here, I'll carry that.

Hurry up! Apologize to Dad.

Now!

Even soba has a lifespan, too.

Got it?

It doesn't live forever!

Can you read it?

LIFESPAN

Go help Kaori.

Sir.

I'm very sorry.

How do you pronounce "lifespan"
in Chinese?

"Shou ming."

Lifespan...

- Liu!
- Yes?

Would you like to practice making soba?

Yes.

Okay.

Then, boil some water.

Hot water!

Like that.

- One, two, three, four...
- Four.

- five, six, seven, eight...
- five, six, seven, eight...

- Nine, ten.
- Nine, ten.

Go!

You need to cool them down very well.
Or they'll dissolve quickly.

Watch.

Liu!

A friend of yours is waiting outside.

The seat in the back is available.

Chen Liang, it's me!

What are you doing here?

I have no place to stay.

I saw your room is quite spacious here,

I was thinking if I can stay at your place
for a while.

No, you can't.

We lived together before, didn't we?

Why don't you contact the Japanese guys?

I couldn't contact them.

What should I do?

Where should I live?

Chen Liang!

I'm not Chen Liang here.

Liu!

Is he your friend?

I don't think so.

- Then go inside.
- Yes.

- Why can't you help me!
- He is working now!

I'm sorry!

How did you fall down?
Did you hit your head on the ground?

No. Fortunately.

I fell on my hands.

Are you okay?
Please be more careful from now on.

I'm not okay!
My knees are covered with bruises!

It must hurt.

Yes, it hurts.

By the way, Chen Liang,

I sent a box of tea to your boss.

I asked your grandma to buy it
when she went to the city.

It's a very high-quality tea!
I want your boss to take good care of you.

Don't send these things.
It is a waste of money.

I sent the present
so you'll get more attention.

Send us another picture
of you working in the office.

- Thank you for the meal.
- Thank you for coming.

Yes, I'll be right with you!

We buy it every year.

Kaori! We only have soba
for four more people.

Okay, got it.

Here's the soba soup.

Here you go.

Liu, take the order from table three.

Okay.

Welcome!

Today is the day of the festival.

You said you'd go with me, right?

And you know it's my birthday.

You have my present?

What happened?

Wasn't she supposed to be healthy?

What happened?

Your mom didn't want me to tell you,

but you should know this.

Your grandma borrowed money
from a lot of people to send you to Japan,

even from loan sharks.

She took on more work to pay the debt.

Since your grandma died, no one
is keeping your mom company.

It'll be too difficult for her.

How is Mom now?

She won't tell you
no matter how hard her life is.

She asked everyone not to tell you
about your grandma's death.

But I think you already saved a lot
of money and learned enough skills.

So come back as soon as possible,
you may still able to attend her funeral.

Say something.

Liu, clear off the table number five!

Liu!

Thank you! Take care!

Liu, I will take these.

Liu, are you okay?

Is something wrong with you?

Hello!

Hello! Welcome!

Table for three.

Okay, we will have it prepared.

Don't turn off now. Let me watch.

The cremation is about to begin,
I have to turn this off.

Your mom may come in anytime.

Take a last look at your grandma.

Liu.

You cannot mix it just with your hands.

Use your whole body.

Whole!

Whole body.

WHOLE BODY

Do you understand?

Okay.

This is fancy! Look! Isn't it fancy?

Yes. This fits you well.

Liang?

It's a little small.

I think it's not bad.

- Let's look at jackets.
- Sure.

Excuse me!

Can you show me that one, the third one?

- This one?
- Yes.

That one too, please!

- This one looks good too!
- This one too.

I like this one.

Try this one.

This?

Turn around.

Should he try it on?

I'll try it.

So?

Looks good on you.

You look handsome in this jacket.
Your grandma has good taste in clothes.

Of course, I have.
Others can't find the perfect fit.

What do you think of this one?

Very good.

You don't need to see me off.

Why?

Because this is not farewell.

I'll be waiting in Beijing.

Are you still there?

Why don't you move on?

What did your father and mother say?

Sorry?

When you told them
you would be a soba chef.

They said they "agree."
You can say "san sei" in Japanese.

You have good parents, don't you?

You should be a good son to them.

Yes, I will.

Do you have grandparents?

They must be around the same age as me.

They have already...

passed away.

I see.

Did they die in China?

Soba has a strong life.

It grows even if it's on barren soil.

Barren soil?

I mean even if the situation is not good.

Mr. Takahashi!

Hey, Hiroshi!

- Long time no see!
- Long time no see!

The other day

your daughter came to the restaurant
with her husband.

They did?

Your grandson is very cute!

He's a naughty boy.

Your son?

He is a natural at making soba.

Really?

How's the soba growing this year?

Liu.

Hey, Liu.

- Do it gently, okay?
- Okay.

Kaori!

Kaori went shopping.

Really?

Yes, that is me.

Yes, but is there any problem with it?

That's quite impolite.

There's no such person here.

His name is Liu.

Liu Wei.

You should've confirmed
the information before calling.

That was too strong.

Look here!

Then use your hands.

I cannot answer your call right now.

You can send a fax

or please leave your message
after the tone.

This is Nakamitsu again.
I just called you.

I will send you his ID card by fax.
Please check it.

Now receiving a fax.

Liu, I'm sorry but...
please show me your passport.

What is...

your name?

I don't know!

Did you lie to me?

I'll be in trouble with the police
because of you.

Show me your passport!

Show it to me!

Change into these clothes
after you get to Japan.

Got it, Mom.

Make sure that Grandma always checks
the color of the pill bottle

before she takes one.
She can't be mistaken with pills.

All right! Don't worry!

Grandma will always check!

I will. Don't worry!

Thanks for coming.

Thank you.

We just came to see him off.

Don't worry, I'm here.
If your mom and grandma need anything,

just give me a call
and I'll come immediately.

If you need anything, let me know!

Okay, thank you.

He has my number.
He can call me if he needs anything.

Grandma, I don't need this! This is yours!

Take it, my good boy.

Just take it.

You don't know what difficulties to expect
when you are outside. Just keep it.

Just keep it.
It has your grandma's love in it.

- But--
- Come on, take it.

- The bus is here.
- Yes, this is the bus.

- Goodbye.
- Okay!

Goodbye.

Take care!

- Don't forget to call us frequently.
- I won't.

Grind that.

Yes.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Who ordered the large one?

Here you are.

Is it your first time here?

- Yes.
- Where are you from?

- From Sendai.
- Really?

She came to my house.

Of course, I remember you!

- Thank you, and enjoy our soba!
- Excuse me, I'd like to pay!

I'll be right there!

Thank you for waiting.

Thank you for waiting.

Why are you here?

Haru.

It seems you need my help. Do you?

Not today, thank you.

He is now practicing here.

He can't focus on it
if a pretty girl like you is here.

- Pretty? Am I?
- I would ask you out if I were him.

- I will go prepare it, excuse me.
- Thank you.

I will serve the meal right away.
I'm sorry.

Sir.

I'll do the delivery.

Thank you for the meal.

Kaori.

This is Liu's first soba noodles.

It's just like himself.

I have to give it to him,
it's not bad for such a short time.

Yes.

Kaori, I know about...

I know you are constantly
renewing your passport.

You caught me.

I wanted to tell you this

during your mom's memorial service,

but I will close the restaurant
for a little while.

I want to use that time
to teach Liu intensively.

So, during that time off, you can go...

wherever you like.

Use your new passport
for the first time!

But, will everything be all right here?
You and Liu alone.

Liu.

I hope you can be
my dad's right hand soon.

Yes, I will.

Thank you.

Dad.

It's time for bed.

Hazuki.

Good morning.

Sir!

- What?
- A black cat is here!

Has your school year begun? How is that?

Liu, I can't touch cats.

Me neither.

- I started to make soba by myself now.
- Strange, it won't budge.

Hey.

Here you are.

Tell me anything you need.
I will bring it to you.

- I'm going.
- Thank you.

In about 30 seconds.

Practice makes perfect.

Right.

- Clear off the table.
- Sure.

Liu, please stand in front of the pot.

What?

Just like you're boiling soba over there.

Where are we going?

The voting time
for the fifth Mizusawa horse race

is about to end momentarily.

Please be aware
that the ticket machines will be stopped

once the voting time ends.

It's a very close race...

I'm a happy man...

I've never won like that!

It's amazing.

Liu.

Do you drink alcohol?

Yes, I do.

What do you like?

Soba alcohol?

Yes.

- It's delicious.
- Yes, it's good.

- Is this you, sir?
- This is me.

And this?

This is the Chinese girl next door.

I heard our families were very close.

My mother had trouble breastfeeding me,

so this girl's mother shared
her milk with me.

Then I was able to grow up.

Even after coming back to Japan,

my mother always talked about
how grateful she was to her.

Is that so?

Yes.

This is Yiwaen.

"Yiwaen?"

You don't understand.

Hand me that notepad.

Good thing we have the same characters.

Summer Palace!

- "Yihuyen?"
- Yiheyuan.

I hope you could go to Beijing
for real someday.

Why don't you open
a Japanese soba restaurant in Beijing?

There's a lot of expats living there.
I think that would be nice.

Yes.

Who is this?

This is my father.

Dad's father.

Grandfather.

Yes, grandfather.

You've learned a lot of Japanese.

You don't look like...

Like whom?

You look different here.

This is the same person.

It's me.

This is a 4-year-old kid.
And 71 years later,

he's got a little bit more wrinkled,
but still cute, right?

A phone is ringing. Is it yours?

Yes.

Hello.

Hello, This is Fujiwara,
calling from Yamagata Police.

Am I speaking to Mr. Liu Wei?

Yes.

Did you lose your wallet in July?

Ms. Hazuki Nakanishi reported
that it was stolen from you.

Is this correct?

Yes.

Fortunately, we already found it.

But,

one thing I need to ask you
is about the ID card in it.

Did you happen to buy this from someone?

No, I didn't.

I see.

Well, I would like to talk a little bit
about this anyway.

Do you have time?

Yes.

I know you work for a soba restaurant
in Oishida town.

Would you like us to visit you?

No. I'll come.

Okay then,
I'll be waiting for you tomorrow.

What are you doing?

Come on in! Sit down!

Was it your girlfriend?

- Yes.
- That's nice, to be young.

- Sir.
- Yes?

Shall we open a soba restaurant
together in Beijing?

What?

Really?

That sounds really good!

Today, about 12,000 Japanese people
live in Beijing.

Here, there are only 7,500.
There are more Japanese over there.

It will be a good business.

When it happens, you will be the chef,
and I will be your assistant.

Does that sound good?

- Really?
- Really!

I don't know why I'm crying.

Here is the change.

Thank you so much!

Take care!

There were few customers today.

Yes, it's okay. It's okay to have
few customers.

We are now serving limited meals a day.

When the soup runs out, we will close.

Like in a ramen restaurant.

Who is ringing the doorbell?

You don't need to ring the bell.
Please come in.

Do you have a minute?

Let's talk outside. This way.

Sorry for interrupting.

We are looking for a young Chinese man
named Chen Liang.

He is here, isn't he?

If you are harboring him,

we are going to have to ask you
some questions.

He is here.

Well, we are coming in.

No. I mean, it's okay to talk to him.

But right now he's working in the back.

Since there are many knives,

it could be dangerous.

What if you come in
and pretend to be customers?

I'll send him to serve you soba
so that you could...

Thank you very much.

Is there anyone else in the house?

No, just two of us.

I'll go prepare everything.

Liu.

Come here.

Sorry, but go deliver soba
to this address.

Where should I go?

It's written on this paper as usual.

I can't leave.

I can't leave.

From now on,

you're going to be the one
to make choices for your life.

Chen Liang!

Chen Liang.

Liu Wei, I watched a movie this morning.

Theaters in Beijing are super big.

Guess which movie I saw.

Are you still at work?
Answer quickly.

Time's up. I'll tell you the answer.
The title is...

Your Name.

Your Name.

Hazuki.

My name is...

Chen Liang.
