Aiyenkyo. You think it sounds like some fancy perfume just from the name? Not a chance. If it were something that cute, would Gin-san be in this mess? This is a scent that drives people crazy. The moment you breathe in the smoke, your reason flies off into outer space, and you fall head over heels for the first person you see. It's a nasty piece of work. And right now, terrorizing Edo with this stuff is all the rage. Whoever's going around spraying this must be working overtime in hell and stubbing their pinky toe every five minutes.

...As for Gin-san? I never understood stuff like love potions in the first place. I don't even know why people use 'em. I mean, I'd give 'em a pass if they used it for [beep], but using performance enhancers before even getting to the [beep] part? That's just a sport at that point.

Anyway, I was walking back after finishing a job, thinking about heading to the Yorozuya office to read Jump—but who would've guessed Gin-san would get caught in that attack?! Even Hanako-san from the other side of the planet wouldn't have seen that coming!

The smoke filled the alley, a sweet scent brushed the tip of my nose, and my mind went blank for a second, but I squeezed my eyes shut and moved as fast as I could. Just as the world was spinning dizzily...

"Oh, Gin-san?"

I reflexively opened my eyes. Wait, wait, wait!! Guest—?! Hey, why does it have to be you of all people—!!

The moment I blinked, I realized I was already standing right in front of you, holding your hand. I'm completely screwed.

You know. I've been thinking this for a long time... You're exactly my type.

Is this actually Gin-san's mouth talking?!
