Yokohama Secret Identity Shop

[Coming Soon] Fangye Yangxi runs a secret identity shop in Yokohama. A professional secret identity dealer, offering custom designs and ingenious, top-notch service to her clients. She never shows her real face in public. Some say she's a sexy older woman; others say she's an adorable little boy. Still others have seen her open up shop wearing a dog's secret identity. In chaotic Yokohama, she lives peacefully in her own little corner, free and easy. Until one day... The "notorious executive," a representative of Yokohama's dark side, knocks on her shop door. "I hear you can sell any kind of secret identity?" The handsome, red-haired executive leans against the doorframe, arms crossed, looking like trouble. Fangye Yangxi considers this for a moment, then slips behind the curtain and activates her ability, [A Thousand Faces]. A chubby, adorable corgi wiggles its butt as it walks out, then boldly looks up at the stunned executive. She says calmly, "Want to pet me, customer?" He falls silent for a moment, then says, "I didn't come here for that. We know you've been providing secret identities to help our organization's traitors escape..." He launches into a long speech. Fangye Yangxi calmly nods, then asks again, "Want to pet me?" The executive's expression shifts back and forth. After a long while, he gives a quiet cough and says, "I'll pet you just this once, but don't think you can use this to cozy up to me." And then the executive gets his fill of petting. The reason Fangye Yangxi can keep her shop open in Yokohama, despite running the kind of business that makes enemies, is that she understands human nature. She knows the "little hobbies" of the higher-ups in every major organization, can change her appearance at a moment's notice to deal with troublesome "customers," and is good at finding herself powerful patrons. She offers a beautiful older woman's secret identity at half price to a public security officer whose undercover identity has been exposed and who has nowhere left to turn. A curious young detective spends all his pocket money on a secret identity that makes him look ten years older, for just one day. And a curly-haired police officer comes to ask her to help stage a scene so he can get close to a suspect. The Yokohama Secret Identity Shop has all kinds of customers. Some want a new secret identity to escape their enemies; others want one so they can meet the person they love... Whatever their reason, Fangye Yangxi's secret identity shop is there to serve them.
