In a rush, Yui and Shou arrive at the place where secret matters are discussed.
Shou, with a tense and shocked expression:
Shou: “Eiko might be a traitor.”
Yui: “Whaaat? That quiet annoying girl?”
Shou: “Yes.”
Yui: “How did you figure that out?”
Shou: “She was listening while we were talking.”
Yui: “What should we do if that’s true…”
355Please respect copyright.PENANAOWVdIk5DJx
A deep voice echoes:
Voice: “Shou… Hey.”
Shou: “Ah, Kai! My friend, how are you?”

One of the three who survived in the warehouse is Kai. After that day, Kai disappeared; after leaving the warehouse, he harbored hatred and followed one of those traitors, eventually finding the warehouse they operated. He had been working on this warehouse for years.

Kai: “Friends, I have some information, but I’m not sure.”
Shou: “What is it? Tell me.”
Kai: “The principal’s son might be alive, but I’m not certain.”
Shou: “That’s bad.”
Yui: “It makes things even more complicated.”

Once again, the trio had reunited after years. But is this a good start?

The Next Day (Escaping from School)
355Please respect copyright.PENANAkb1W8nNKPs
Kai: “I can’t believe you ran away from school, kids!”
Shou: “It’s urgent.”
Kai: “What is it?”
Shou: “Haru is alive.”
Kai: “What? He’s not dead?” he says, with a happy and surprised expression.
Shou, in a firm tone: “He might be a traitor.”
355Please respect copyright.PENANAKaovoIWKUV
Kai ignores Shou because Kai and Haru had a one-year relationship. But if Haru is a traitor, things could get complicated.
Kai: “Don’t be ridiculous, that can’t happen,” he frowns.
355Please respect copyright.PENANALZ9oW7GBnR
Yui interrupts: “He even changed his name to Tomoko and is threatening Shou,” she says.
355Please respect copyright.PENANA7yvbArhNRs
Kai feels disappointed but still can’t believe it. To avoid confronting the issue:
Kai: “Okay, let’s be careful,” he says, but begins to investigate to uncover the truth.
355Please respect copyright.PENANA94blJJWfa6
Tomoko, that is Haru, has been increasingly threatening Shou; she threatens him with Eiko but doesn’t reveal why. She just tries everything to find out who Eiko is and where she lives.
355Please respect copyright.PENANA7tXF1izxpo
When Kai comes to school, he encounters Haru. This meeting rekindles the old bond between them, and they hug as if their feelings for each other haven’t completely disappeared.
355Please respect copyright.PENANA1BjolTolTG
Eiko and Miyu see them hugging.
Eiko is dazed and watches them in surprise.
Miyu: “Why are you spacing out? Maybe he’s a former student.”
Eiko: “I don’t think it’s a mistake.”
355Please respect copyright.PENANAlQnpi23kWG
But Miyu doesn’t hear this.
Miyu: “Yes, ma’am?”
Eiko: “Ah, nothing.”
Miyu: “Anyway, let’s go.”
355Please respect copyright.PENANAUrgzn8RTsp
As Eiko and Miyu head to the classroom, they see Shou and Yui.
Yui, with a frightened expression, grabs Shou’s arm.
355Please respect copyright.PENANAgJSFwdMXI3
Eiko, watching from behind, scans them from head to toe.
Eiko: “Smiling, am I too beautiful today?”
355Please respect copyright.PENANA4oNwZdarp5
Shou and Yui see Haru and Kai standing together. Since they are at school, they must hide it. Shou immediately grabs Kai’s hand and starts dragging him, while Haru runs toward the school.
355Please respect copyright.PENANAw0e43op6ok
Kai, angrily, to Shou: “What do you think you’re doing? Are you crazy?”
Shou, in a stern voice: “Haru might be a traitor.”
355Please respect copyright.PENANAq3xi2JeZXU
Kai gets really angry: “Traitor? Why would he come to school in a teacher’s disguise?”
Yui jumps in: “Haru is threatening Shou!”
Nee…
355Please respect copyright.PENANAPSey41CgOW
Kai experiences another shock; “Why would he threaten him? What’s his gain?” he thinks, and walks toward the park.
355Please respect copyright.PENANASXaOtFbR9u
This park was where Kai had proposed to Haru. After sitting on a bench for a while, a voice calls from nearby:
Voice: “Kai! Kai!”
It’s Haru.
355Please respect copyright.PENANAeVuvqKUBcy
Kai: “Haru, you haven’t forgotten me?” he says, hugging her.
Haru: “I missed you so much.”
Kai: “Me too…”
355Please respect copyright.PENANA8cNRrH9QM0
Haru’s expression falls, but then:
Kai: “Is something wrong?”
355Please respect copyright.PENANA4EtkpOWSIU
Unable to contain himself, Kai harshly says:
“Why are you working with the traitors? Why do you want to know who Eiko is? Why are you threatening Shou?”
355Please respect copyright.PENANAx5gwN4YBYQ
Haru: “Enough… I’m not threatening anyone anymore. The reason I came to this school is Eiko!!”
