Shogun: What the hell do you guys want...?
	It's rude to barge into other people's rooms uninvited...

Man: Boss's orders, Shogun.  We gonna kill you.

Shogun: What are you talking about...?  I just woke up...  plus I got a hangover...

Shogun: Yaaaaawn.

Shopkeeper: Huh?

Shogun: How much for one mango?

Shopkeeper: 8 bahts!!

Shogun: (ping)
	Keep the change.

Shopkeeper: Wait a moment, this is nothing compared to what it will cost to fix the stand!!

Chapter 33 : Friendship Party

[Summer 2000]

Isono: That was Chaipon and his bungling men.

Sign: Fujiyama Travel

Isono: You let one of the Go-Go Bar girls go home, didn't you?

Shogun: You don't kill a man for doing something like that, Isono-san.

Isono: They aren't gonna kill you about the girl.
	You probably did something else besides letting her go, didn't you?

Shogun: Something else...?

 - Page 13 -

Shogun: Yeah...  I burnt up the white powder she had on her.

Isono: There you go.
	Chaipon's just starting getting involved in selling some new drugs.
	That woman had his precious new shipment.
	This new drug "Rainbow Kid" is selling awful well in Japan.
	At some ridiculous prices, I hear.

Shogun: Japan again...
	What's wrong with that place...?

Isono: Japan?  They just got out of a long recession, and things are starting to look up again.

 - Page 14 -

Isono: I guess things have REALLY been going well since some new political party showed up.
	What was it called, again...?

Shogun: Not interested.

Isono: Oh, here's something else you may not be interested in.
	I've been getting calls from Japan again.

Shogun: From...  a woman?

Isono: No, no, not your wife.  From a man.
	Not interested, right?
	Whatcha gonna do?  Go back to Japan?
	You stay here, Chaipon WILL kill you.
	And your visa's gonna run out, right?  I could make another fake one, though.

 - Page 15 -

Isono: Or else hide around Chiang Mai or so...
	I'm the only one around here who knows who you are.  You die, I have a hard time waking up.

Shogun: If this could kill me, I'd be dead 10 times already.

Isono: Hello, Fujiyama Travel.
	Yes.
	Thank you.  Sure.  Got it.  Okay, I'll tell him.
	(click)
	Work.
	There's a Japanese tourist overdosed and about to kick the bucket in the Grand Parkside Hotel.

 - Page 16 -

Shogun: I'll help women in distress,
	But I don't do drug cases.

Isono: The hotel needs help.
	Police presence will hurt it.  Just take a black market doctor.

Shogun: Listen...

Isono: You wanna stay here, you work.
	I'm the one making you false visas.
	Good luck.
	Oh...  now I remember.
	That new political party...

 - Page 17 -

Isono: It was in the paper.
	(flap)
	One of the high-ranking members is in Bangkok right now.
	Here we go.
	The "Friendship Democratic Party"...
	AKA "Friendship Party"!
	...whoops, he left...

	Anyways, you gotta get up for me...

Guy: I'm a...
	Japanese policeman...
	Came here on vacation...

Shogun: For an officer to come all the way to Bangkok on his break to overdose on drugs...
	Japan really IS up shit creek now...
