Naikawa Yoshino couldn't understand Naikawa Aoi's bizarre train of thought and had no idea what she wanted to do, but seeing her repeatedly mumbling "call, make the call" and trying to find the phone number Nanahara Takeshi left behind, her look was one of confused urgency. Fearing that Aoi might do something drastic in her agitation, Yoshino quickly took her along.

In the end, Yoshino had to apologize on the phone, "I'm sorry, Mr. Nanahara, I thought my sister was missing her… her knick-knacks. I'm really sorry for disturbing you and Kiyomi this late…"
