==Summary==

3 months into 2001, two years after the death of [[Yoshikage Kira]] and the events of ''[[Diamond is Unbreakable]]'', [[Koichi Hirose]] arrives in {{W|Naples}}, {{W|Italy}} on a 'bizarre mission' from [[Jotaro Kujo|Jotaro]] to locate a 15 year old, half-Japanese-half-Italian boy named [[Giorno Giovanna|Haruno Shiobana]] in order to retrieve a skin sample due to Jotaro wanting to check his genetic structure. Jotaro had explained how he sent Koichi rather than gone himself due to [[Echoes|Koichi's Stand]] being well-suited for the task at hand. Koichi had pointed out how Haruno looked similar to Jotaro, to which Jotaro gave no response. In the present, Koichi questions Jotaro's motives, but seeing as he's bound for a free holiday with all expenses covered by the man, he brushes his curiosities aside.

 

 

Koichi declines, and the boy enquires how Koichi's Italian is so fluent for a Japanese tourist. Koichi slips out how he asked [[Rohan Kishibe]] for help, before catching himself and explaining that he simply learned it. In turn, Koichi enquires about the trade he has just witnessed, but the boy dismisses it as a parking fee, before offering a taxi ride again, this time at a cheaper 10 Euros. At first, Koichi is reluctant, but upon seeing the long queue for public taxis, he accepts, putting his {{MI|Koichi's Luggage & Passport|luggage}} in the back seat of the boy's car.

Koichi warns the boy not to trick him in any way, but as soon as he closes the car's front door with his luggage inside, the boy drives off, leaving Koichi shouting for him to come back. The boy smiles goodbye as he drives away, but his car is suddenly stopped, weighed down by [[Echoes#Echoes ACT3|Echoes ACT3]]'s 3 Freeze. The youth, despite being hindered, leaves the car, and confidently and calmly smirks at Koichi with a shining serenity, before fleeing.
