Asagi is late for work, and Harada is late as well. Harada tells Harada that he respected him and that he would pay him for the work he had done for him. He says that he will write about the incident on his blog and include it in the manga he had written. Asagi's assistant, Ryunosuke Shiratori, is also late, but Harada doesn't care. He tells him that he is glad Harada liked his work, because it was not plagiarizing. He also says that Harada has been wearing contact lenses, and he plans to get rid of them. He wonders if she will be okay with him on his own, since he is "a puppy." Harada says he will try to send her a text message, but she is not answering his phone. He worries that she is drinking too much milk, and wonders if he will be able to take care of his dog, Shmoop. He thinks that she looks like she is passing through his studio, and that it makes sense that she would be passing through, since it is between his studio and hers. He is sure that she has been murdered, and thinks that the killer brought her body to his car, which has a license number that is the same as Harada's.
