It's been a while since we've seen the author, but he's back at the club. He's still hanging out with Momoka, who's also hanging out at the same club. The author tells Momoka that she's busy writing a story for the next day, so she'll be back in a few days. He asks her about her new boss, and she tells him that the boss is letting her work in the club as a favor to get rid of a friend. She also tells the author that her boss is buying three rounds of liquor, which is impressive, but not impressive enough for the author. He tells her that this is a "sleazey" part of town, and he wants to know what's going on between the two of them. He says he'll give her a hint the next time he sees them, and then he promises to serve her dinner that night.
