Cut-Over Criteria

The chapter opens with Haruma seto, an engineer at the same company as Hiroshigewara, complaining about running "repeated tests" . He's worried that he's going to have to "row off" with his supervisor, who works for another company. Haruma tells him that he forgot his phone the night before, so he can't come to work the next day. He tells Haruma that he doesn't want him to come over today, because he'll have to row off with him. He also says that he wants Haruma to stay with him for two weeks so that he can learn more about the company's products. He asks Haruma if he can have a drink with some of the girls in the General Affairs department, and they all agree that he should go out for one.
