"HEY!" Qiao shouted, walking into Gin's apartment. Shinpachi waved while Kagura sat there, stuffing her face with Tamago kake Gohan. "Where's Gintoki?" She looks around. "He is still in his room sleeping. He drank too much last night," Shinpachi said. "Why am I not surprised? Here, I made cupcakes. Enjoy." She puts them down, then walks into Gintoki's room. In a blink of an eye, Kagura grabbed the box and stuffed her face with all of the cakes. "Kagura-chan! That for all of us!"

"They're all mine! Get away from my precious," she said in a spine-chilling voice. Shinpachi backs away from her.

Qiao kicked Gintoki's door open with her boots, then cursed. "Shit." She forgot that she was supposed to side it open. "Oops." After fixing it, she walks in and stares at him. His feet and arm are dangling from his bed, and he is snoring with his mouth open. "Ugh…" She sits next to him. Even though he looked gross, she didn't know why he looked attractive. What the hell am I saying? She shook her head, then stood up. "Time to wake up, Gintoki!" She lifted her leg, then dropped the back of her heel hard on his stomach.

"AHHH! SHIT!" He shouted while holding his stomach. He sat up to see Qiao grinning down at him. He pulls her down to him by her long sweater. "What. The fuck. Is your problem?" He hissed. She smiles at him. "It's time to wake up! Get up! Sleepyhead!" Gintoki yanks her by the hair. "What the fuck is wrong with you?! I don't have to get the fuck up if I don't want to. You got that?"

"Yes, I got it, but-WHOA! HOLY SHIT! Gintoki, your breath smell like an fucking barrel of sake that has been sitting out for three months!" He blew his breath in her face. "Oh my god!" She covers her face. He releases her. "That's what you get for kicking me in the stomach. Why can't you be a normal woman and wake a man up by sliding into his bed naked?" She laughs as he lies back down. "That won't happen. Wait, are you describing Ayame?"

"Shut up…don't say her name loud. That crazy bitch might be watching. She might burst in here like the Kool-aid man." She laughs. "She's still stalking you?" He sighed. "When did she ever stop?" She rolls her eyes. "Date her already! You already spend the night together!"

"For the last time! She fell through my roof! She and I did not spend the night with each other." Qiao adverts her eyes. "That's not what Ayame is going around saying." He points to her. "Tell your friend to stop starting rumors."

"Aww, Ayame and Gintoki, sitting in the free! F-U-C-K-I-N-AHHHH!" Gintoki threw her out of his room. She landed on her head, then sat up. A giant bump grew on the side of her head. "You will pay for this! Shinpachi, why do you have a black eye?"

"Kagura refused the share the cupcakes." Qiao reaches her hand out to take a cupcake, but Kagura starts to growl at her, telling her to back the fuck away. Gintoki walks in, drinking a carton of strawberry milk. He sits down at his desk. "Okay, you can have that box, Kagura. Here's another box of cupcakes, Shinpachi."

"Cupcakes? Give me one of those's," he said, reaching for six cakes. "Oh, joy. Look who finally decided to get up and grace us with his lazy presence. It's Mister, Funsize dick."

"Get off my dick. How about that," he told her. She took out her magnifying glass and pointed it at his crotch. "I have to find it first. Where are you, little guy?" She laughs. "Ow!" Gintoki hits her on the head with his wooden sword. "Back off."

"Hold it, perm boy. When was the last time you had your sugar and blood pressure checked?" Gintoki picks his nose. "I don't know. Now, give me another cake." She looks at his friends. "Do you guys know?" She asked them. "I don't remember," Shinpachi said. "Gin-chan goes to the doctor?" Kagura asked, looking confused. "That's what I thought. I will check your blood pressure, but your doctor needs to check your sugar. Do you understand Gin?"

"Yeah, yeah, go to the ice cream store for sugar. I got it. Wait, how do you know what I was planning to do? Stop reading my mind."

"Breaking News. Someone burglarized the city bank last night. Police are trying to find any clues or suspects leading to this crime. They're saying it might have been an inside job."

"Whoa, someone got away with a lot of money," Shinpachi said. "I could buy so much food with that." Qiao stares at the TV, focusing on the information. "It's in the paper too. The investigators can not find any clues leading to this crime. There were footprints, fingerprints, or DNA. The volt has not been tampered with by anything. That's odd. Maybe that's why they say it was an inside job."

"How can all that cash walk away on its own? The person that did it can probably walk through walls," Qiao said. "There's a lot of crazy shit that goes on in Edo. I am not surprised. No evidence, no clues, and no witnesses. Damn, if someone was going to rob a bank, why didn't they include me? Include me next time! Gosh, why are people so selfish?" He crosses his arms.

"Don't be stupid. You don't want to live your life as a criminal. It's hard and lonely. You have to look behind your shoulders every minute. You have to wear different disguises, and you can't trust anyone but the people who got you into this mess in the first place. Sometimes you can't even trust them."

Everyone turned to look at Qiao. She was serious when she said that. "Um...are you okay, Qiao?" Shinpachi asked. "Huh? Oh, sorry, I was saying being a criminal would suck. Not that I would know because I'm not one. I'm saying how it might feel. I mean, look at Katsura. He is wanted for being a terrorist. All done, Gintoki."

"Yeah, they are too stupid to catch him."

"Because of his good looks." Gintoki rolls his eyes. "You still have a crush on him?" She smiles. "Yes, I do! It's the hair. I can't resist it."

"It's a wig! That's why we call him Zura." He pushed her. "Shut up and stop hating on Katsura!" She puts him in a headlock. He grabbed her arms to get his head free. "I will never be jealous of Zura! You know how strong and cool I am!" He body-slammed her to the floor. She elbowed Gintoki in the face. "Don't ever disrespect Katsura! He is strong too. And he looks better than you." He scoffed. "Yeah, he's strong, but I'm better. So fuck him!" When they got up, they started wrestling again until Qiao roundhouses kicked him and made him sit down. Gintoki sits there, dazed from the kick. Qiao grabbed his chair, then ran with him toward the front door. She pushed him off the balcony along with his chair. He yells as she looks down at him with disgust. "Do you ever. Disrespect my long hair, gorgeous man."

Otose came outside to see Gintoki lying face-first on the grown. "Falling off of balconies, huh? You might be drunk, clumsy, or Qiao back in the city?"

"Hi, Otose!" She said, waving down at her. "Hello, Qiao. Long time no see. You're here to stay?" She nods. "Well, keep kicking his ass until you knock some sense into him." She walks back into her shop. Qiao walks downstairs. "See you later, Gintoki. I can not play with you anymore. I have to go to work." He sat up while rubbing his back. "This ain't over, you fucking heifer!" She walked off while taking out her doctor's coat. Too bad she wasn't going to work. She had something else to do.

She walks into an apartment, then sits down at the table. Her sister comes out from another room and sits down across from her. She blows smoke, then flicks her cigarette above the ashtray. "Did you get the info?" Jewel asked. "Of course. Do you doubt me?" She slides the folded paper across the glass table. "Not one bit. A lot is riding on his information. We don't want to fuck up."

"That will not happen. Tomorrow night, we will go over the plans. Is there a problem?" Qiao asked. She shakes her head. "None." She puts out her cigarette.
