My friend had gone missing, and it was possible that I had unwittingly played a part in it. Kiyomi Liuli was restless and full of regret for not having accompanied Okuno Yasuharu to search for her, but now that it was almost ten o'clock at night, she didn't dare go out alone to search haphazardly. That would likely cause more harm than good. So she spent a sleepless night, anxiously hoping that Asai Sora would come to no harm.
Early the next morning, she got up and called Nakano Eri, only to find out that there was still no word from Asai Sora, which made her feel even worse. Unable to concentrate on her studies, while Nanahara Takeshi hadn't expected the situation to turn out like this either. He had casually helped a patient on the street, only to find out that the patient was a wanted criminal, implicating a friend of a friend.
