Sanosuke is visiting the sukiyaki restaurant Akabeko, where he always leaves his bill on a tab. One of Akabeko's workers, Tae, asks him to go buy a Nishiki painting from the painting shop on her behalf. Though Sanosuke had no interest in paintings, he finds one at the store that catches his eye. It was a painting of the man he looked up to as his master back when he was a member of the Sekiho Army, Captain Sagara. With a gleam in his eyes, Sanosuke makes his way to meet with the artist of the painting.
He would be smiling, but he wasn't
satisfied at the bottom of his heart.
.كان يبتسم، لكنّه لم يكن راضيًا من أعماق قلبه
Mesmo que ele estivesse sorrindo,
era como se nunca estivesse satisfeito.
Даже если улыбался кому…
чувствовалось, в душе у него царит буря.
