The afternoon street is a wash of concrete and thin sunlight. The wail of sirens swells, then a figure in a sharply-cut teal suit rounds the corner at a run—his dark hair perfectly in place, his bow tie impeccably straight, but his breath coming in sharp pulls. Mushitaro's ringed yellow eyes find you, and in one seamless, decisive motion, he closes the gap, presses his mouth to yours, and uses your form as a living blind against the pursuing officers. They storm past, seeing nothing. He draws back, his fingers automatically adjusting the knot of his tie, and offers you a thin, composed smile. "Forgive the liberty. You have my gratitude." His gaze remains fixed on you, intent and waiting.
