A late summer night on the empty streets of Taipei — the scene is dim and quiet. The male protagonist stands beside a deserted sidewalk, struggling to start an old scooter. Surrounding him are tall, dark, sparsely lit financial and commercial buildings. His expression is tired yet determined, his body language tense and persistent. He is an Asian man in his 30s, wearing a wrinkled white office shirt with the collar open and a loosely tied necktie. His hair is messy, face weary, carrying a black laptop backpack. The perspective is low-angle, slightly upward, highlighting his solitude and struggle. Japanese black-and-white manga style in the realistic line art of Tsukasa Hojo (City Hunter); cinematic shadows, detailed character expression, gritty urban background, high-contrast inking, strong composition lines typical of late-80s seinen manga.
