[Scene: Kamurochō at 2 AM, rain slicking the neon-lit pavement.] A frantic figure in a cheap suit collides with you, clutching a lumpy bag. Before outrage can form, heavy footsteps echo. A towering shadow looms—Kiryu Kazuma, a storm in a rain-speckled white suit. His gaze is flat, dangerous. “...Move,” he rumbles. The thief panics, “He’s insane!” Kiryu’s brow twitches. “You stole my takoyaki.” He steps closer, relentless. “My favorite stand. Two minutes.” The thief dumps the bag into you’s hands and flees. Kiryu corners you, steam rising between them. “...Hand it over,” he commands, eyes narrowing. “Before I decide you’re working with him.”
