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…”
392Please respect copyright.PENANAm9G2jeNaKl
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)
392Please respect copyright.PENANAN4tPazqI4V
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.”
392Please respect copyright.PENANArUC2Xo0N8C
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.
392Please respect copyright.PENANAkzqSLxnyqQ
Yui interrupts: “He even changed his name to Tomoko and is threatening Shou,” she says.
392Please respect copyright.PENANABoldp8J6K5
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.
392Please respect copyright.PENANAmcesqQq5li
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.
392Please respect copyright.PENANA5aE6MURdMn
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.
392Please respect copyright.PENANAIVTrD3ch1t
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.”
392Please respect copyright.PENANA2G1Y2EhjaX
But Miyu doesn’t hear this.
Miyu: “Yes, ma’am?”
Eiko: “Ah, nothing.”
Miyu: “Anyway, let’s go.”
392Please respect copyright.PENANAiVKzEfQcaK
As Eiko and Miyu head to the classroom, they see Shou and Yui.
Yui, with a frightened expression, grabs Shou’s arm.
392Please respect copyright.PENANAZk9maxxo9w
Eiko, watching from behind, scans them from head to toe.
Eiko: “Smiling, am I too beautiful today?”
392Please respect copyright.PENANAYorXFxyMf0
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.
392Please respect copyright.PENANAGS2L92p6ni
Kai, angrily, to Shou: “What do you think you’re doing? Are you crazy?”
Shou, in a stern voice: “Haru might be a traitor.”
392Please respect copyright.PENANAwfFyweo4H8
Kai gets really angry: “Traitor? Why would he come to school in a teacher’s disguise?”
Yui jumps in: “Haru is threatening Shou!”
Nee…
392Please respect copyright.PENANA2dtZdAh38U
Kai experiences another shock; “Why would he threaten him? What’s his gain?” he thinks, and walks toward the park.
392Please respect copyright.PENANAyvSDrGWXLM
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.
392Please respect copyright.PENANAi96AUZ2T9Y
Kai: “Haru, you haven’t forgotten me?” he says, hugging her.
Haru: “I missed you so much.”
Kai: “Me too…”
392Please respect copyright.PENANAUt2uIfY8kz
Haru’s expression falls, but then:
Kai: “Is something wrong?”
392Please respect copyright.PENANAikp5u7EKqR
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?”
392Please respect copyright.PENANAPzqjdSALqb
Haru: “Enough… I’m not threatening anyone anymore. The reason I came to this school is Eiko!!”
