1:24:01
After interrogating Masui about his
connection to Takigawa Genba...
1:24:06
...it was found that Genba worked
for li's vassal, Nagano Shuzen...
1:24:09
...and he has been secretly talking
to Masui for a long time.
1:24:12
On January 31st, he received 20-ryo,
and a further 30 on February 21st...
1:24:17
...totalling 50-ryo. Masui Sobei received
these funds from Takigawa Genba.
1:24:22
He confessed to conspiring
against us.
1:24:25
Thus, he is hereby sentenced
to death.
1:24:28
Then... Kurihara Einosuke had...
nothing to do with it?!
1:24:32
Niiro... You're such a simple-
minded fellow.
1:24:36
What?!
1:24:37
You take things too seriously.
You're too frank.
1:24:41
If you don't become a little
more dispassionate...
1:24:44
...you can't possibly
destroy Elder li!
1:24:46
That has nothing
to do with this!
1:24:49
Kurihara Einosuke was
one of our comrades!
1:24:51
Also... he had a wife, and
even an innocent child.
1:25:00
The blood of
Elder li...
1:25:02
...and the blood of Kurihara Einosuke...
what's the difference?
1:25:05
Sympathy has no
place here!
1:25:09
From the start, this has been
the nature of our mission.
1:25:11
We can't allow our enemies to
wound us without reprisal.
1:25:15
Our hands must get dirty
with blood, too.
1:25:18
Listen to me, Niiro!
1:25:21
You must become a little
more cold-blooded.
1:25:24
By the 3rd of March, for certain!
1:25:27
By the 3rd of March, for certain!
What?!
1:25:29
On March 3rd, in the center
atrium of Edo Castle...
1:25:33
...a Joumi Day Celebration, important to
the Shogun's family, will take place.
1:25:36
In other words, the so-called
"Peach Observance."
1:25:39
Without a doubt, Elder
li Naosuke will attend.
1:25:45
One traitor... and one suspected
of being a traitor...
1:25:49
...a total of two comrades
have been eliminated.
1:25:51
Finally, our mission
can commence!
1:25:56
Get rid of him.
1:25:57
Get rid of him.
Yes, sir!
