It's been a while since we've heard from Hiroshige, and now he's back at work. He's a little worried about what's going to happen to his job, since he doesn't know if he'll be able to keep up with the students. He asks if he can ask for more shifts, and Hirohige tells him that he can do whatever he wants, but that he'd be ashamed to lose his job. He also says that if they leave, he won't force them to do anything, since it would be a shame to lose him. Hiroshi thinks that it's probably best for him to take a breather from the students, since they're going to be back in school for a while. He tells Hiroshi that he won the award for the best student in the school, and that he hasn't shown up to any awards since. He says that Hiroshi might be a little moody, but Hiroshi isn't likely to get mad if he lets Hiroshi in his house. He thinks Hiroshi will be okay if he just lets himself into his house, and then he asks if Hiroshi is all right, and he says that he is. He then asks if she's okay, and she says that she is. She then asks him if he was the one who shot himself in the shinkosha robbery, and when he replies that he was, she asks him to think of him as his special friend. She also asks him where his clothes are. He coughs and says, "Where are my clothes, what the hell?"
