1. Whenever I saw her...
Copy !req
2. I knew...
Copy !req
3. I was dreaming again.
Copy !req
4. And once you know you're dreaming...
Copy !req
5. it's an out-of-body experience.
Copy !req
6. Sometimes you float upwards.
Copy !req
7. In my dreams,
Copy !req
8. I would always wonder...
Copy !req
9. if my body were made of hydrogen.
Copy !req
10. If so...
Copy !req
11. then my memories...
Copy !req
12. must be made of stone.
Copy !req
13. Do you know
you've been talking in your sleep?
Copy !req
14. Did I wake you up?
Copy !req
15. What did you dream about?
Copy !req
16. Someone who disappeared.
Copy !req
17. Whenever I'm about to forget her...
Copy !req
18. I dream of her again.
Copy !req
19. Your lover?
Copy !req
20. I guess.
Copy !req
21. But I never knew her real name or age...
Copy !req
22. or anything about her past.
Copy !req
23. That sounds like a story
from that book with the green cover.
Copy !req
24. I told you not to go through my stuff.
Copy !req
25. I wanted to know more about you.
Copy !req
26. Luo Hongwu!
Copy !req
27. I might never have gone back to Kaili
if my father hadn't died.
Copy !req
28. It seems now that everything began
with the death of a friend.
Copy !req
29. His nickname was Wildcat,
and he was always dodging gambling debts.
Copy !req
30. The last time I saw him,
Copy !req
31. I helped him pull a cart of apples
he was going to sell that night
Copy !req
32. to a man named Zuo Hongyuan.
Copy !req
33. But I'd just gotten divorced at the time.
Copy !req
34. I was a little forgetful.
Copy !req
35. When I remembered those apples,
they were already rotten.
Copy !req
36. Later, my ex-wife's friend,
an auxiliary police officer,
Copy !req
37. told me Wildcat's body
was found in a mine shaft.
Copy !req
38. While I was cleaning up the rotten apples,
Copy !req
39. I found a gun there.
Copy !req
40. After that...
Copy !req
41. I always found myself attracted to danger.
Copy !req
42. Before your father died,
Copy !req
43. he always drank alone
in front of that broken clock.
Copy !req
44. I couldn't get him to stop.
Copy !req
45. In his will,
Copy !req
46. he left you the van
and left me the restaurant.
Copy !req
47. That's okay with you, right?
Copy !req
48. He once told me that you were away
working all this time.
Copy !req
49. Is that right?
Copy !req
50. I was managing a casino.
Copy !req
51. I'm going to remodel the restaurant.
Copy !req
52. Do you have anywhere else to stay?
Copy !req
53. Best not change the sign.
That's my mother's name.
Copy !req
54. Over the next week,
Kaili will see persistent periods of rain,
Copy !req
55. with heavy downpours,
Copy !req
56. turning into thunderstorms in some areas.
Copy !req
57. The risk of landslides and mudslides
in these areas is high.
Copy !req
58. Please exercise caution on the road.
Copy !req
59. 0851-82709507
Copy !req
60. After Wildcat died,
Copy !req
61. I saw his ghost on the train.
Copy !req
62. Perhaps we'd gone through
a very long tunnel
Copy !req
63. and I was hallucinating.
Copy !req
64. It was the summer solstice.
Copy !req
65. That day,
the noonday sun was at its zenith.
Copy !req
66. Zuo Hongyuan had vanished from Kaili...
Copy !req
67. but I had tracked down his lover.
Copy !req
68. Assuming it wasn't a hallucination...
Copy !req
69. I also remember that a mudslide...
Copy !req
70. had stopped the train.
Copy !req
71. Got a light?
Copy !req
72. I don't know where he is.
Copy !req
73. The police are looking for him, too.
Copy !req
74. You thought I was afraid of you?
Copy !req
75. The number you have dialed does not exist.
Copy !req
76. Please check the number and try again.
Copy !req
77. - Give me a phone card.
- For 50 yuan or 100?
Copy !req
78. Whatever.
Copy !req
79. I don't know how a detective
investigates a strange woman.
Copy !req
80. So I took her back to the Feng restaurant.
Copy !req
81. My mom once told me
that when people are eating,
Copy !req
82. they're too distracted to lie.
Copy !req
83. Wildcat was a liar from an early age.
Copy !req
84. He took advantage of my trust in him
to involve me in dangerous deals...
Copy !req
85. and he tried to extort money
using the secret behind the gun.
Copy !req
86. I didn't keep questioning her.
Copy !req
87. I thought that was the end of the story...
Copy !req
88. but it was only the beginning.
Copy !req
89. That night at dinner...
Copy !req
90. her makeup reminded me
of a photo of my mother.
Copy !req
91. I remember it said on the calendar,
Copy !req
92. "Today, the noonday sun is at its zenith."
Copy !req
93. After that,
Copy !req
94. the days grow shorter
and the nights longer.
Copy !req
95. You said I could leave after we ate.
Copy !req
96. Why are you still following me?
Copy !req
97. I think...
Copy !req
98. you look a lot like someone I know.
Copy !req
99. I'm not falling for that old trick.
Copy !req
100. What is it you want?
Copy !req
101. I mean it.
Copy !req
102. She disappeared
when I was only a few years old.
Copy !req
103. I remember that day.
Copy !req
104. There was a fire nearby.
Copy !req
105. Look.
Copy !req
106. For some reason...
Copy !req
107. I remember, in the photo,
her makeup was smeared, too.
Copy !req
108. The train was rocking.
Copy !req
109. It made a mess of my face.
Copy !req
110. You're not from Kaili, are you?
Copy !req
111. How do you know?
Copy !req
112. Your accent.
Copy !req
113. I've got a Kaili accent.
Copy !req
114. Your name, say it in the Kaili dialect.
Copy !req
115. Wan Qiwen.
Copy !req
116. Wan Qiwen.
Copy !req
117. Sounds like a movie star's name.
Copy !req
118. How much longer will you follow me?
Copy !req
119. Did I frighten you today?
Copy !req
120. How can I make it up to you?
Copy !req
121. I want to eat a pomelo fruit.
Copy !req
122. Where can I get a pomelo in summer?
Copy !req
123. Let's make a deal.
Copy !req
124. If I can find a wild pomelo...
Copy !req
125. help me make a wish come true.
Copy !req
126. Hello?
Copy !req
127. Luo Hongwu.
Copy !req
128. That nonworking number once belonged
to a women's prison in Guiyang.
Copy !req
129. Has something happened?
Copy !req
130. Nothing. Just off to see a friend.
Copy !req
131. Hey, Pager.
Copy !req
132. Could your husband get me a permit
to get inside the prison?
Copy !req
133. Sure.
Copy !req
134. Good.
Copy !req
135. Tai Zhaomei?
Copy !req
136. Are you Tai Zhaomei?
Copy !req
137. I am.
Copy !req
138. Do you know Wan Qiwen?
Copy !req
139. No.
Copy !req
140. Did you once mail a photo
to the Feng restaurant?
Copy !req
141. I don't recall.
Copy !req
142. This photo.
Copy !req
143. So she left you her green book.
Copy !req
144. We were only 15 or 16 at the time.
Copy !req
145. We'd never stolen anything before.
Copy !req
146. We had watched this house for a long time.
Copy !req
147. Then finally, one day...
Copy !req
148. we saw that the couple had gone out.
Copy !req
149. So that night,
we broke their door down and ran in.
Copy !req
150. She was holding the flashlight...
Copy !req
151. and shone it all around.
Copy !req
152. She told us she'd discovered
that the house could spin.
Copy !req
153. So we all sat down
and kept perfectly still,
Copy !req
154. like a bunch of idiots.
Copy !req
155. We wasted a lot of time waiting.
Copy !req
156. Then we started going through their stuff.
Copy !req
157. We found some rings, necklaces,
gold, and money.
Copy !req
158. But just then, the couple came back.
Copy !req
159. We all panicked.
Copy !req
160. We didn't know what to do.
Copy !req
161. In that instant...
Copy !req
162. we decided we'd each grab
the most valuable thing we could and run.
Copy !req
163. When we got out into the woods
to divide it all up,
Copy !req
164. we saw that she had come out
with only a book.
Copy !req
165. We stayed in the woods and read it.
Copy !req
166. It was a love story.
Copy !req
167. We only heard half the story...
Copy !req
168. but we all liked it a lot.
Copy !req
169. And she told us that she'd save the book
for the person she liked most.
Copy !req
170. And this photo?
Copy !req
171. How did you get it?
Copy !req
172. She gave it to me.
Copy !req
173. There's a funny story behind it.
Copy !req
174. Mr. Ace tricked us into going to Kaili.
Copy !req
175. He sold her to a man with bald spots...
Copy !req
176. who liked her singing voice.
Copy !req
177. When she left with him,
I asked her if she was upset.
Copy !req
178. She replied, "Why should I be upset?
Copy !req
179. I can go to the movies with him."
Copy !req
180. She only regretted it a little that she
hadn't taken a photo of herself first.
Copy !req
181. She didn't know what kind of person
she would become.
Copy !req
182. Twelve years ago...
Copy !req
183. I think it was her birthday...
She came to visit me.
Copy !req
184. As she was leaving,
she asked me if the photo looked like her.
Copy !req
185. I said no.
Copy !req
186. Then she left it with me.
Copy !req
187. Later, all of us were arrested.
Copy !req
188. Around the time of the Spring Festival,
I met a prisoner from Kaili.
Copy !req
189. She looked at that photograph
Copy !req
190. and told me the address of the place
where the photo was taken.
Copy !req
191. So I mailed it there.
Copy !req
192. Maybe she had already left.
Copy !req
193. What did they lock you up for?
Copy !req
194. Plenty.
Copy !req
195. Theft, fraud...
Copy !req
196. making fake ID's.
Copy !req
197. I don't know where she is either.
Copy !req
198. You knew her better than I did.
Copy !req
199. I want to give you this book.
Copy !req
200. Do you believe the love story in the book?
Copy !req
201. And that if you say the spell
on the first page,
Copy !req
202. the lovers' house will begin to spin?
Copy !req
203. Hold it!
Copy !req
204. I told you to stop!
Copy !req
205. What is it?
Copy !req
206. It's from Tai Zhaomei.
Copy !req
207. Thanks.
Copy !req
208. She was always disappearing
and reappearing...
Copy !req
209. as mysterious as that abandoned house.
Copy !req
210. Besides our trysts,
we always went to see movies.
Copy !req
211. The difference between a movie and memory
is that movies are always false.
Copy !req
212. In a movie,
one scene follows after another.
Copy !req
213. But memories mix truth and lies.
Copy !req
214. They appear and vanish before our eyes.
Copy !req
215. Isn't that the name of a Cantopop singer?
Copy !req
216. Plenty of people have the same name.
Copy !req
217. There are two people named Chen Huixian
in Panghai.
Copy !req
218. One's a lot older.
Copy !req
219. Her registration records end in 1999.
Copy !req
220. The other Chen...
Copy !req
221. she's 36, married.
Copy !req
222. That's all I know.
Copy !req
223. And her husband?
Copy !req
224. His name is Wang Zhicheng.
Copy !req
225. He runs a hotel
next to a gas station in Panghai.
Copy !req
226. They've already left.
Copy !req
227. There's something
I'm not sure I should tell you.
Copy !req
228. Everything about you is a mystery.
Copy !req
229. I'm pregnant.
Copy !req
230. I have a feeling it's a boy.
Copy !req
231. A boy who would grow up to be an athlete.
Copy !req
232. I'll teach him to play Ping-Pong.
Copy !req
233. Don't worry.
Copy !req
234. While I was gone last time...
Copy !req
235. I had an abortion.
Copy !req
236. Why?
Copy !req
237. Zuo is coming back to Kaili.
Copy !req
238. Why don't we leave Kaili...
Copy !req
239. go someplace far away?
Copy !req
240. You think I don't want to?
Copy !req
241. Everything you're thinking,
I've already thought about.
Copy !req
242. There was one time...
Copy !req
243. when Zuo was singing a karaoke song,
Copy !req
244. he turned to me with the microphone
and said...
Copy !req
245. "No matter where you run...
Copy !req
246. I will always find you."
Copy !req
247. Every time I remember that,
Copy !req
248. I know...
Copy !req
249. no matter what,
I'll never escape in this lifetime.
Copy !req
250. You have to believe in me...
Copy !req
251. like you believe in that spell.
Copy !req
252. Luo Hongwu.
Copy !req
253. We cannot survive...
Copy !req
254. unless we hide away together
among the stars.
Copy !req
255. Some people said
the world would end in 1999.
Copy !req
256. Now it's the year 2000.
Copy !req
257. And we're all still fucking alive.
Copy !req
258. I have a friend
who runs a casino in Burma.
Copy !req
259. Go back and wait for me.
Copy !req
260. Pack your things overnight. Then we'll go.
Copy !req
261. What's that sound?
Copy !req
262. No idea. I'll check later.
Copy !req
263. Show me your license.
Copy !req
264. Falling in love with you
Copy !req
265. I erase everything
Copy !req
266. I hold my breath
Silently, secretly, gently
Copy !req
267. Is it really so?
Copy !req
268. I know you are leaving me
Copy !req
269. But I cannot stop
Copy !req
270. The tears falling down
Copy !req
271. Falling in love with you
Copy !req
272. I erase everything
Copy !req
273. I hold my breath
Silently, secretly, gently
Copy !req
274. Is it really so?
Copy !req
275. I know you are leaving me
Copy !req
276. But I cannot stop
Copy !req
277. The tears falling down
Copy !req
278. Boss.
Copy !req
279. You scared me to death.
Copy !req
280. It's fake. Why so jumpy?
Copy !req
281. All you do all day is sleep.
Copy !req
282. The TV's broken,
but you won't get it fixed.
Copy !req
283. No one watches TV these days.
Copy !req
284. Bag anything today?
Copy !req
285. The dog has no stamina,
and it gets overheated.
Copy !req
286. Always sniffing the ground,
and the ground is hot.
Copy !req
287. Even running makes it dizzy.
Copy !req
288. Boss, someone's waiting for you.
Copy !req
289. What do you want?
Copy !req
290. I'm looking for someone.
Copy !req
291. What are you to her?
Copy !req
292. A friend from Kaili.
Copy !req
293. Kaili!
Copy !req
294. Kaili!
Copy !req
295. Kaili!
Copy !req
296. Dad, Kaili ran off with my egg!
Copy !req
297. Are you Luo Hongwu?
Copy !req
298. Since the day we were found out...
Copy !req
299. I worried about the people
flying away to the stars.
Copy !req
300. They must be so exhausted...
Copy !req
301. with nothing to lean on, nowhere to rest.
Copy !req
302. Have you made up your mind?
Copy !req
303. The water's freezing.
Copy !req
304. I'm afraid I'll fail.
Copy !req
305. It's so dark in the movie theater.
Copy !req
306. If you fire at the same time
as the killer on the screen...
Copy !req
307. everyone will think it was a sound effect.
Copy !req
308. We'll leave Kaili
and use his money to open a hotel.
Copy !req
309. We'll find those lights
that look like the sun
Copy !req
310. and put them up outside the hotel.
Copy !req
311. And the guests will sleep
free from nightmares.
Copy !req
312. Ever since she moved in,
Copy !req
313. she stayed locked inside
and never went out.
Copy !req
314. Spit it out!
Copy !req
315. When she ran out of money to pay...
Copy !req
316. she'd tell me a story every day
in place of the rent.
Copy !req
317. She told me stories...
Copy !req
318. until we got married.
Copy !req
319. Will she be back tonight?
Copy !req
320. We just finalized the divorce.
Copy !req
321. One day,
she told me she was going for a walk.
Copy !req
322. And she never came back.
Copy !req
323. Do you ever hear from her?
Copy !req
324. She sings in a karaoke parlor in Dangmai.
Copy !req
325. After she left,
I'd occasionally go to hear her sing.
Copy !req
326. And it was always that same song.
Copy !req
327. Later, I went less and less often.
Copy !req
328. Is that child yours?
Copy !req
329. She was a master storyteller.
Copy !req
330. I didn't know what was real
and what was false.
Copy !req
331. Anyway, she told me
that she had been born infertile.
Copy !req
332. Need a haircut?
Copy !req
333. Our water's off.
Copy !req
334. You haven't been here since Wildcat died.
Copy !req
335. And now you show up like some detective.
Copy !req
336. Why are you asking
about that killer's girlfriend?
Copy !req
337. She took something valuable from me.
Copy !req
338. You'd better stay away from her.
Copy !req
339. Back then, Zuo borrowed a gun from
Wildcat's father to kill a man for her.
Copy !req
340. Then she became his lover.
Copy !req
341. But later, I heard that she had affairs
with several men.
Copy !req
342. That's all I know about her.
Copy !req
343. When I was a kid...
Copy !req
344. there was a beekeeper
who lived next door for a while.
Copy !req
345. My mom would sneak over there
and bring me back lots of honey.
Copy !req
346. Your mother wasn't stung?
Copy !req
347. Beekeepers
wear special protective clothing.
Copy !req
348. My mom said all you had to do
was light a smoky torch
Copy !req
349. and the bees would disperse.
Copy !req
350. Sometimes when she didn't get any,
Copy !req
351. she'd be upset and eat an apple.
Copy !req
352. I remember she told me
that when people were very sad,
Copy !req
353. they would eat an apple...
The whole thing, core and all.
Copy !req
354. The Kaili weather channel issued
a red-alert storm warning
Copy !req
355. at 6:14 p.m. Today.
Copy !req
356. Kaili will see more than
50 millimeters of precipitation
Copy !req
357. over the next three days,
Copy !req
358. bringing severe danger of mudslides.
Copy !req
359. Mudslides are a disastrous
geological phenomenon
Copy !req
360. often associated with flooding
in mountainous regions
Copy !req
361. and tend to strike suddenly,
carrying with them massive boulders.
Copy !req
362. If the storm does hit soon...
Copy !req
363. what will you do?
Copy !req
364. Weather forecasts are often wrong.
Copy !req
365. Do you remember how to dye hair?
Copy !req
366. I taught you, but you must have forgotten.
Copy !req
367. When you were here in the shop,
you never worked very hard.
Copy !req
368. Always hanging out with Wildcat.
Copy !req
369. Actually, when we snuck out together,
I went with him to visit his father.
Copy !req
370. When we were kids, he lied and told me
Copy !req
371. his dad had an awesome nickname...
The Eagle.
Copy !req
372. Later, I found out
that his father was in prison.
Copy !req
373. Guess what color I'm gonna dye my hair.
Copy !req
374. Maybe a color
that only shows up in the sunshine?
Copy !req
375. What color would your mother choose?
Copy !req
376. I don't know.
Copy !req
377. Maybe red.
Copy !req
378. Red?
Copy !req
379. Nonsense. Who wants red hair?
Copy !req
380. I still think it's too dangerous.
Copy !req
381. When I was on the train, a mudslide
forced us to turn back to Kaili.
Copy !req
382. It's living in the past that's scary,
not mudslides.
Copy !req
383. I no longer remember
what that movie was called.
Copy !req
384. And I don't remember
if she gave me that green book
Copy !req
385. or simply forgot it on top of the wall.
Copy !req
386. I only remember that when
I returned to that leaky house...
Copy !req
387. she was already gone.
Copy !req
388. And that night...
Copy !req
389. I memorized the spell...
Copy !req
390. that would make the house spin.
Copy !req
391. But...
Copy !req
392. even if it really did spin,
Copy !req
393. so what?
Copy !req
394. Hey there. Want to play?
Copy !req
395. Is the karaoke parlor open at night?
Copy !req
396. We open at 9:00.
Copy !req
397. We can make you happy.
Copy !req
398. Will the singers on the poster be there?
Copy !req
399. It's their last night.
The place is being torn down at dawn.
Copy !req
400. One song, you get a fruit plate.
Three, you get a girl.
Copy !req
401. Is there a singer here called Wan Qiwen?
Copy !req
402. Wan Qiwen, Meng Tingwei, Momoe Yamaguchi...
They're all here.
Copy !req
403. Does Wan Qiwen sing Japanese songs?
Copy !req
404. They sing whatever you want.
Copy !req
405. How old is the singer?
Copy !req
406. At night, who can tell?
Copy !req
407. What's painted on the parlor wall?
Copy !req
408. We'll be open in three hours.
Go see a movie, relax a bit.
Copy !req
409. See for yourself when you come back.
Copy !req
410. Who are you?
Copy !req
411. I was going to ask you the same thing.
Copy !req
412. I'm lost.
Copy !req
413. What's with the lamp?
Copy !req
414. Lost, huh? You look pretty shifty to me.
Copy !req
415. Where'd you come from?
Copy !req
416. I fell asleep in a movie theater.
Copy !req
417. When I woke up,
everyone had left the theater.
Copy !req
418. It was pitch dark in there, like a maze.
Copy !req
419. I followed a narrow passageway
Copy !req
420. and found myself in this cave.
Copy !req
421. Only porn theaters are built like that.
Copy !req
422. - You know it all, don't you?
- Of course.
Copy !req
423. - You know the way out of this maze?
- No idea.
Copy !req
424. Why are you burning that photo?
Copy !req
425. Looks like I'm stuck here for the night.
Copy !req
426. But tonight's my last chance to see her.
Copy !req
427. Moping won't do you any good.
I was just fooling.
Copy !req
428. Beat me at Ping-Pong
and I'll take you out of here.
Copy !req
429. Ping-Pong?
Copy !req
430. Scared?
Copy !req
431. That door with the map on it,
bring it over. Just lift it up a bit.
Copy !req
432. You're not fooling?
Copy !req
433. I drew that map. What do you think?
Copy !req
434. Hurry UP!
Copy !req
435. - What are the rules?
- Rules? Look at us!
Copy !req
436. Change sides.
Copy !req
437. You talk too much.
Copy !req
438. We play the proper way.
Copy !req
439. I'll serve first.
Copy !req
440. Think I'm scared of you?
Copy !req
441. Come on!
Copy !req
442. You can't even serve right.
Copy !req
443. Come on.
Copy !req
444. Come on.
Copy !req
445. Rubbish!
Copy !req
446. - I'm playing for real now.
- Come on, serve.
Copy !req
447. What kind of serve was that?
Copy !req
448. Spin serve.
Copy !req
449. Spin serve. Again!
Copy !req
450. All right then.
Copy !req
451. Give up?
Copy !req
452. I lose.
Copy !req
453. Spin serve. Goddamn.
Copy !req
454. You beat me fair and square.
Copy !req
455. I'll take you out of here.
Copy !req
456. Catch.
Copy !req
457. It'll keep you warm on the scooter.
Copy !req
458. Aren't you going to lock up?
Copy !req
459. You're not worried about thieves?
Copy !req
460. Who'd come and steal anything besides you?
Copy !req
461. Get on.
Copy !req
462. Hurry it up.
Copy !req
463. - Are you on?
- I'm fine.
Copy !req
464. How'd you end up living in a mine?
Copy !req
465. Because I'm a ghost.
Copy !req
466. There are many kinds of ghosts.
Which kind are you?
Copy !req
467. The most naive kind.
Copy !req
468. - How old are you?
- Twelve.
Copy !req
469. You lie a lot for such a young kid.
Copy !req
470. - Did nobody teach you right from wrong?
- How about you?
Copy !req
471. - Can I ask you a question?
- What about?
Copy !req
472. Have you ever kissed a woman?
Copy !req
473. Of course I have.
Copy !req
474. What did it feel like?
Copy !req
475. Like being in a dream.
Copy !req
476. She must have been pretty.
Copy !req
477. Very pretty.
Copy !req
478. What did she look like?
Copy !req
479. I've forgotten.
Copy !req
480. Why is it so cold today?
Copy !req
481. What are you talking about? It's winter.
Copy !req
482. Where'd you learn to lie so much?
Copy !req
483. You're the liar.
Copy !req
484. How could you forget how she looked?
Copy !req
485. It was a long time ago. I've forgotten.
Copy !req
486. The road ahead is blocked.
Copy !req
487. I'll push the scooter around it. Get off.
Copy !req
488. - Whose coat is this?
- My dad's.
Copy !req
489. Where's your dad?
Copy !req
490. Why do you ask so many questions?
Copy !req
491. How come you've got a gun?
Copy !req
492. Because I'm a killer.
Copy !req
493. There are many kinds of killers.
Which kind are you?
Copy !req
494. The most naive kind.
Copy !req
495. Go down that way and follow the high wall.
Copy !req
496. Go through the prison ruins
and you'll find the way back out.
Copy !req
497. Down that way?
Copy !req
498. I got here from there.
Copy !req
499. Find the way out yourself
if you don't believe me.
Copy !req
500. This way takes you straight in.
Copy !req
501. This paddle is for you.
Copy !req
502. Hoping for a rematch someday?
Copy !req
503. If you spin the paddle,
you can fly down there.
Copy !req
504. Give it a try.
Copy !req
505. You know, when a kid lies,
the moon will cut his ear off.
Copy !req
506. Have a nice trip.
Copy !req
507. It's so dark. Is it safe?
Copy !req
508. A man should have some courage.
Copy !req
509. Okay.
Copy !req
510. What's your name?
Copy !req
511. Why don't you give me one?
Copy !req
512. No, I can't.
Copy !req
513. I can't name you.
Only a father can do that.
Copy !req
514. But how about a nickname?
Copy !req
515. Like what... Ping-Pong Superboy?
Copy !req
516. That's cheesy.
Copy !req
517. If I see you again, I'll call you Wildcat.
Copy !req
518. And you'll teach me that spin serve?
Copy !req
519. Sure.
Copy !req
520. I'll light your way with the scooter.
Copy !req
521. Hey, we're paying "P!
Copy !req
522. Thanks very much to our contestants!
Copy !req
523. Weren't those songs enchanting?
Copy !req
524. And thanks to all of you
Copy !req
525. for attending tonight's
Wild Pomelo Karaoke competition.
Copy !req
526. Let me remind you that we'll be selecting
a singer from among the contestants.
Copy !req
527. Even you could become
a superstar overnight.
Copy !req
528. Hurry up and register around the back.
Copy !req
529. I'm closing up. Come back tomorrow.
Copy !req
530. Are you deaf?
Copy !req
531. You look a lot like a friend of mine.
Copy !req
532. I'm in a bad mood tonight.
Don't bother me.
Copy !req
533. I mean it. You remind me of her.
Copy !req
534. What's her name?
Copy !req
535. Wan Qiwen.
Copy !req
536. Yeah, right. That's a movie star's name.
You think I don't know?
Copy !req
537. Hey, what the hell?
Copy !req
538. No scar, no mole, no tattoo.
Copy !req
539. I'm not the woman you're looking for.
Copy !req
540. Sorry. My mistake.
Copy !req
541. I'm used to guys like you.
Copy !req
542. Kaizhen! Cigarettes.
Copy !req
543. When the game's over, I'm closing up.
Copy !req
544. What's the rush?
Copy !req
545. What a wonderful night!
Copy !req
546. You want to go down and give me a tune?
Copy !req
547. You don't own the karaoke below.
Copy !req
548. Let go of me! It hurts!
Copy !req
549. I'll give you a chance.
Copy !req
550. Sink this shot and you can piss off.
Copy !req
551. When Jian's back,
I'll tell him you've got a new man!
Copy !req
552. What are you doing back here again?
Copy !req
553. Some kid tricked me.
Copy !req
554. He said if I followed the prison wall,
I'd find the way out.
Copy !req
555. Wait for me by the door.
Copy !req
556. I'll take you down.
Copy !req
557. Where's the key?
Copy !req
558. On the wall there.
Copy !req
559. It's not here.
Copy !req
560. Locked in again.
Copy !req
561. You don't have the key?
Copy !req
562. Those two punks tossed it over there.
Copy !req
563. Now what do we do?
Copy !req
564. What do we do? We wait.
Copy !req
565. We wait for someone
to come up here to play.
Copy !req
566. Okay.
Copy !req
567. But there's a show now.
Copy !req
568. Who knows how long we'll have to wait?
Copy !req
569. Then we'll wait until morning.
Copy !req
570. I'm not standing up here
all night with you.
Copy !req
571. By the time this song's over,
we can pry the door open.
Copy !req
572. You're not a local, are you?
Copy !req
573. None of your business.
Copy !req
574. "Kaizhen."
Copy !req
575. What does your name mean?
Copy !req
576. It means "Pearl of Kaili."
Copy !req
577. Kind of old-fashioned, huh?
Copy !req
578. Not at all. I'm from Kaili.
Copy !req
579. How about a game of pool?
Copy !req
580. I'm no good at it.
Copy !req
581. You run a pool hall and you can't play?
Copy !req
582. This is my boyfriend's place.
Copy !req
583. What the hell? Let's play.
Copy !req
584. It's weird just standing here.
Copy !req
585. Your boyfriend's name is Jian?
Copy !req
586. Yeah.
Copy !req
587. If those two start spreading rumors,
won't people get the wrong idea about you?
Copy !req
588. Wrong ideas are the stuff of life.
Copy !req
589. Will your boyfriend be back tonight?
Copy !req
590. None of your business
whether he will or not.
Copy !req
591. He's in Kaili.
Copy !req
592. He's with his boss, collecting debts.
Copy !req
593. He said once he's earned enough money,
he'll come for me and take me to Kaili.
Copy !req
594. We'll take a plane ride.
Copy !req
595. Kaili doesn't have an airport.
Copy !req
596. I know he's lying.
Copy !req
597. The fireworks seller down there told me
he'd seen Jian with another woman.
Copy !req
598. Someone prettier than me,
someone who speaks the Kaili dialect.
Copy !req
599. Why are you still waiting for him?
Copy !req
600. Do you know
how to play that fruit machine?
Copy !req
601. Wild pomelo is the hardest fruit to win.
Copy !req
602. I made up my mind,
Copy !req
603. that if I won a pomelo...
Copy !req
604. I'd leave this place.
Copy !req
605. Just now, after you left, I got one.
Copy !req
606. Where do you want to go?
Copy !req
607. If I could, I'd be a singer.
Copy !req
608. I'd perform all over Guizhou...
Copy !req
609. earn a lot of money
Copy !req
610. and treat myself to an airplane trip.
Copy !req
611. How does it feel to fly in a plane?
Copy !req
612. - I get airsick.
- Airsick?
Copy !req
613. Okay, the music has stopped.
Copy !req
614. Can you get something
to pry open the lock?
Copy !req
615. A Paddle?
Copy !req
616. That's how you'll get the door open?
Copy !req
617. If we spin this, we can fly.
Copy !req
618. Give me your hand.
Copy !req
619. What for?
Copy !req
620. Think I'm going to fall for that?
Copy !req
621. That's not how you get to hold my hand.
Copy !req
622. Hey!
Copy !req
623. Let go of me! Where are you taking me?
Copy !req
624. So that paddle's supposed to let us fly?
Copy !req
625. You think that's going to work?
Copy !req
626. And with this much wind!
Copy !req
627. So if it stops spinning, will we fall?
Copy !req
628. Let's give it a try.
Copy !req
629. Has the moon gotten bigger?
Copy !req
630. No.
Copy !req
631. We're actually flying.
Copy !req
632. The feeling of flying,
Copy !req
633. it's like the feeling
of staying in that house.
Copy !req
634. Which house?
Copy !req
635. It belonged to a pair of lovers.
Copy !req
636. They turned it into
the sweetest house in the world.
Copy !req
637. I was so envious.
Copy !req
638. Let's fly closer to the house, shall we?
Copy !req
639. I've got to find that woman tomorrow.
Copy !req
640. I wish she were you.
Copy !req
641. - Let me down.
- Why?
Copy !req
642. I'm getting airsick.
Copy !req
643. There's the prison gate. You can go now.
Copy !req
644. But it's not dawn yet.
Copy !req
645. I'll stay long enough for a song.
Copy !req
646. Go onstage and sing. Then I'll leave.
Copy !req
647. No. And stop following me.
Copy !req
648. Why?
Copy !req
649. Go find that woman.
Copy !req
650. Did your new lover dump you?
Copy !req
651. None of your business.
Copy !req
652. Two yuan.
Copy !req
653. Got a light? A thief stole my lighter.
Copy !req
654. Why would a thief steal your lighter?
Copy !req
655. Look. That crazy woman is here again.
Copy !req
656. How long will this sparkler burn?
Copy !req
657. About a minute.
Copy !req
658. Come out!
Copy !req
659. Come out!
Copy !req
660. How long will you keep acting crazy?
Copy !req
661. How long will you keep avoiding me?
Copy !req
662. My truck broke down on the road.
But I'm here, aren't I?
Copy !req
663. I'll ask you one last time.
Will you come with me?
Copy !req
664. You already burnt the house down.
Copy !req
665. You think you have anything left
to threaten me with?
Copy !req
666. That house was of no use anyway.
Copy !req
667. Everything you told me was a lie!
Copy !req
668. Are you really leaving with this man?
Copy !req
669. Shut up. It's none of your business!
Copy !req
670. Just stand there.
Copy !req
671. Are you really going with him?
Copy !req
672. Then tell me why you want to go with him.
Copy !req
673. I can help you.
Copy !req
674. I've tasted too much bitterness.
Copy !req
675. At least he had sweet honey to give me.
Copy !req
676. So you've made up your mind?
Copy !req
677. Isn't there anyone you care about?
Copy !req
678. There is someone.
Copy !req
679. But he's too young to remember me.
Copy !req
680. Open the gate.
Copy !req
681. Come here.
Copy !req
682. Hurry UP-
Copy !req
683. Give her the keys to the truck.
Copy !req
684. Do it!
Copy !req
685. Go wait in the truck.
I've got you in my sights.
Copy !req
686. I was in a rush,
so I didn't bring you anything.
Copy !req
687. You like apples, right?
Copy !req
688. You're nuts.
Copy !req
689. Do we know each other?
Copy !req
690. No.
Copy !req
691. Why are you crying?
Copy !req
692. Why are you helping me?
Copy !req
693. Because...
Copy !req
694. I want your most valuable possession.
Copy !req
695. This is all I have.
Copy !req
696. Hey, man.
Copy !req
697. Where's Kaizhen?
Copy !req
698. She's backstage.
Copy !req
699. I thought you'd already gone.
Copy !req
700. Aren't you looking for someone?
Copy !req
701. Why are you back again?
Copy !req
702. This is for you.
Copy !req
703. You can't just give watches to people.
Copy !req
704. Why not?
Copy !req
705. A watch is a symbol of eternity.
Copy !req
706. And it's broken.
Copy !req
707. This is for you.
Copy !req
708. You can't just give fireworks to people.
Copy !req
709. Why not?
Copy !req
710. They're a symbol
of how brief existence is.
Copy !req
711. Aren't our lives brief?
Copy !req
712. How many singers are ahead of me?
Copy !req
713. One more. You're the last one tonight.
Copy !req
714. It's a while until dawn.
Copy !req
715. I'll take you to the house
I was talking about.
Copy !req
716. Do you believe
that everything I told you is true?
Copy !req
717. It's completely burnt out.
Copy !req
718. What happened?
Copy !req
719. There used to be
a lovely crystal chandelier here.
Copy !req
720. It was beautiful.
Copy !req
721. I remember
the switch was on the wall there.
Copy !req
722. When you turned it on, it was dazzling.
Copy !req
723. That cabinet used to be locked up tight.
Copy !req
724. It took me forever to get it open.
Copy !req
725. The only things in there
were men's and women's clothes.
Copy !req
726. There was a big dining table here.
Copy !req
727. There was always
a lot of fresh fruit on the table.
Copy !req
728. The ceiling always leaked. The floor too.
Copy !req
729. When it rained,
the downstairs turned into a pool.
Copy !req
730. One evening,
I overheard the man saying to the woman
Copy !req
731. that if you recited a spell,
the house would begin to spin.
Copy !req
732. Do you believe that?
Copy !req
733. Do we know when we're dreaming?
Copy !req
734. Maybe.
Copy !req
735. On TV, they said that dreams
are lost memories.
Copy !req
736. Suddenly I feel regret.
Copy !req
737. About what?
Copy !req
738. How short this night is.
Copy !req
739. Can I kiss you?
Copy !req
740. If you think the moon is bright enough.
Copy !req
741. But the moon is pale tonight.
Copy !req
742. Then if the house spins, you can kiss me.
Copy !req
743. Using the point of a knife
to pierce the water.
Copy !req
744. Examining snow with a microscope.
Copy !req
745. Doing this over and over,
Copy !req
746. one still wants to ask...
Copy !req
747. Have you counted the stars in the sky?
Copy !req
748. They're like little birds...
Copy !req
749. always skydiving on my chest.
Copy !req
750. LONG DAY'S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT
Copy !req
