"Ah, all will be revealed in due time, Taro-kun. For now, let's just say that I have a job that needs doing, and I think you're the man for the task."
"Ah, Taro-kun. I've been looking for you."
Taro is taken aback, as he has no idea who this old man is or how he knows his name.
The episode begins with a shot of a bustling city street, before zooming in on a small, unassuming café. We see our protagonist, a young adult named Taro (let's assume), sitting at a table sipping a coffee and staring out the window.
Hei then proceeds to reveal that he has been watching Taro for some time, and has a proposition for him.
Taro is skeptical, but Hei's charismatic personality and air of mystery have him intrigued.
"You see, Taro-kun, I've been searching for someone with your... particular set of skills. And I think you might be just the person I need to help me with a little problem I'm having."
