The next day, the group meets again at 1 in the morning to discuss the cot friend's fate. They're not sure what to make of the idea that he's going to die, but they're happy to hear that the helper is doing well. The group asks why Hiroyuki has decided to go to school, and Hiroyuki explains that he wants to cure his sister's rare disease, which makes her very sick. They agree to meet again in a few days to discuss how to help him.
