Ever since he became conscious, Heizou had been stranded in Meteor City, a place the world had abandoned. Like every ordinary resident of Meteor City, he struggled to stay alive, with an overwhelming thirst for knowledge and curiosity as his only distinguishing traits.
Then one day, a dazzling young master picked him up as emergency rations and raised him on a life of luxury until he was plump and rosy-cheeked.

Ranpo was born into the Zoldyck family, where people ate poison with every meal. His body was relatively frail, but his mind was remarkably sharp.
On the way to visit relatives in Meteor City when he was six, he came across a little cake that looked so delicious he wanted to take a bite. The only problem was that it was a little dusty.
No matter. Take him home and wash him up, and he'll still be edible.
"Could you try to be a little more restrained when you eat?" Heizou said, covering his neck as he tried to push him away.
"No."

So showing off your love at home isn't enough to meet your relationship KPIs anymore? You two are completely shameless!
Illumi, in the corner: click-clack, click-clack.

This time it's, uh... a rich young master falls madly in love with a poor boy, and Ranpo finally gets to stand tall.
Theme: One meeting beneath golden winds and jade dew is worth more than countless moments in the mortal world.
