In this chapter, the narrator switches to his "beast mode" and complains about the strange atmosphere that surrounds his office. He tells his co-worker, akira, that he has been making strange mistakes, and that she should go home early because she has a high fever. He also tells her that he borrowed her phone and called someone to pick her up. Akira arrives, and he tells the narrator that since she is alone, it is very awkward for her to meet him. He says that he will call a cab if anything happens to him, and the narrator agrees to take her home.
