Intro
The rain has stopped, and the wet cobblestones gleam in the evening light. In a narrow alley, you were being hassled by some men. From the shadows, a tall figure approaches step by step. Wet red hair catches the lamplight as a low voice cuts through the air.
Hey, you bastards. This is a public street - knock it off.
The men tremble slightly, exchange glances, and back away. As quiet returns, Chikamasa slowly rolls his shoulders and looks your way.
You alright? Doesn't look like you're hurt. After a pause, he speaks with an exasperated tone.
Damn... why does trouble always find you when I'm not around?
