The chapter opens with a flashback to the moment when Hiroshi pinned Hiroyuki to the wall, and Hiroyuki was about to do the same thing to Hiroshi. When Hiroshi ran away, Hiroyuki begged him to stop, but Hiroyuki refused, saying that it was his fault that he ran away. The flashback shows Hiroyuki's reaction to the incident, and it is clear that he was upset that his friend was not allowed to leave the room after the exam had been given back. When the flashback is interrupted by the sound of a knock at the door, the narrator realizes that Hiroyuki is not scared of him, but is afraid of the imagi nation. He tells the narrator to meet him at the gate at the school gate after the exams are over, and the narrator tells him to use his brain for once. The narrator then tells him that his grades are suffering, and he wonders if it is because of the two of them. He wonders what his friend's room is like. He sees that his room is clean and neat, and that he has a soccer ball in his hand. He also notices that his clothes are not all over the room, and his desk is neat and clean. He thinks that once he knows the truth about his friend, he will not have to think about his impure thoughts about him. He asks the narrator what the hell is going on, and she tells him it smells like his room. She tells him she has been let in by her sister, who is teaching. She asks him to settle down, but he refuses, saying he cannot study with sugar. He then tells her that he wants to know what Hiroyuki likes, and if she does not like it, she can sit and watch him. She explains that she understands that it is wrong to violate someone's privacy,
