Use dramatic cinematic framing, glossy reflections, heavy rainfall, dense urban detail, realistic wet textures, and high-contrast lighting. In the top wide panel, show a young man in a trench coat from behind approaching a lone woman standing under a streetlight in the distance. Include Japanese signs reading サンテル, サンライズ, 花園通り 3丁目, and 夜霧 B1, plus a parked scooter and graffiti. In the middle panels, alternate close-ups of the man's wet profile and the woman's side silhouette, then fragmented facial crops with dialogue bubbles. In the bottom row, show the woman's close-up saying 'WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME.', the man's close-up replying 'THEN GET TO THE POINT.', and a final long shot of a solitary figure in the alley with the large sound effect 'DRIP'. Keep the page entirely grayscale, moody, realistic, and suspenseful, like a mature seinen thriller manga."}
