Enoki and the other members of the school's electronic engineering club are shocked to learn that shirataki has joined the club. Enoki tells them that he has joined because he is curious about what the boy looks like. He says that he heard a loud cough coming from the vice-principal's room and that he hopes that the boy has found a new hobby to devote himself to. He explains that he was a pitcher for a while before getting injured and retiring from the game. He put his manga in the book so that he wouldn't get into trouble if the other boys found out about it. He found a button in the ground and wonders who it could be. He wonders how much work he put into baseball. He feels like he can't run away, so he begs someone to help him. He wants to know who the boy is and what he should do if he doesn't find him. The other boys tease him about his cheap ice cream, saying that he could have gotten darts from the ice cream. He also says that if he found a popsicle with a "you win" sign on it, he could get another for free.
