Kazumi was pale while walking towards the meeting room. "How are they so calm when they knew we lost's the evidence!?" Everyone sits down when everyone involved is in the room. They start at introducing themselves.
[Naegi]: I am Naegi Kotaru, The head of our branch.
[Misato]: I am Misato Dola, The assistant head of this branch.
[Kazumi]: I am Kazumi Kazuto, Employee of this branch and the witness of the incident.
[Kyoji]: I am Kyoji Hane, The head of this branch.
[Eiji]: I am Eiji Kai, Employee.
[Yuri]: I am Yuuri, An employee also.
"Now that everyone is here i guess i should introduced myself too. My name is Hideki Quinn, The founder and the head of this whole company. Nice to meet you all. Now we are here becase of complaint of Naegi's branch to to Eiji Kai. Now tell me everything you know and prove your side."
Eiji was glaring at Kazumi with his eyes filled with evil intention and a satisfied smile. Kazumi was annoyed but looked away. Eiji stand and tell them that he is not abusing anything. "I am not doing anything wrong, That Kazumi is just spouting nonsense!". Hideki asked Yuri if he Eiji is lying but she is not responding. "That's true, My employee will never do that and i'm monitoring everyone!". With Misato being annoyed, She also stands and point his fingers to Eiji and Kyoji. "Kazumi saw everything and it's clear that he is telling the truth. Also, You have records of abusing your machina!" They exchange harsh words and shouting. "EVERYONE SILENCE!" The intense atmosphere suddenly vanished. "Ms. Misato's words are the facts." Eiji replied "I don't know what they are talking about, They don't even have enough evidence to prove that!".
The room suddenly filled with silence. Kazumi was trembling and can't speak what he is thinking. "See? They can't speak because they don't have evidence" While Eiji was talking, Misato notices that we wears something resembled to what she's thinking. "I am an innocent, just doing my job!" Kazumi suddely speaks, " I saw you doing something that you shouldn't, like hurting your partner! I saw you, In that alleyway while i'm buying coffee." Eiji is still rejecting the incident
[Eiji]: You don't even know what i'm doing in that alleyway!
[Kazumi]: So you admit that we are in that alleyway and i saw you.
[Eiji]: No i'm...
[Kazumi]: That's already an evidence! you admit that i saw you!
[Eiji]: That's not even an evidence.
Hideki told Kazumi that they need stronger evidence to prove that. "I hereby announce that Eiji Kai is innocent". Eiji jumps in happiness while looking at Kazumi with his evil smile. "See!? i am innocent!" When they are leaving, Thedoor is still locked.
[Eiji]: Sir, The door is locked?
[Hideki]: Yes.
[Eiji]: Huh? Why?
[Hideki]: Go back to your seats. DO you think it's easy to escape from your misdeeds?
[Eiji]: What are you talking about? I'm innocent!
The projector suddenly flashed with the video on it. Kazumi was shocked to see that the evidence is already in his hands. "So this is what Naegi mean." Eiji and their branched we're also shocked while watching it. "That is fake! I didn't do it!" Hideki asked Naegi what he wants to do with it so Naegi consults Kazumi and Misato. "What do you want to do now, Kazumi?" Kazumi became happy and requested "I want Yuri to work at our branch and fire Eiji for repeated violations." Naegi replied "Ok, If that's what you want."
Naegi requested what Kazumi wants to happen. "I hereby announce that Eiji Kai is guilty and stripped his status as a retriever and be fired while Yuri will be transferred to work with Naegi's branch" Before Eiji leaves the room, He glares at Kazumi with a bloodlust, "Wait for me, For i will bring you despair".
Naegi's party is now heading back to their office with Yuri. When they arrived, Everyone is shocked because Yuri is with them. "Boss, Who is that woman?" Naegi Introduced her to the branch. "This is Yuri, Our new employee and for the meantime will be our maid here. Kyousuke jumps in happiness "Boss, That's nice! Bringing a maid here" Then suddenly Aoi slaps his head. "Be more considerate! You idiot!".
Kazumi is worried because of Eiji's actions and his last words before he left the company. "I will bring you despair!" "What does he mean by that?". Misato approached him.
[Misato]: You looked worried.
[Kazumi]: Am i?
[Misato]: Yes,Why is it?
[Kazumi]: Nothing to worry about.
[Misato]: I see, Then wipe it off and rest then work.
[Kazumi]: Guess i'll do that.
