Back in Hongxiu's apartment, yunfan tells his brother that he has a mission, and he's going to leave a hairpin for him. If he doesn't come back for it, he'll leave it as a reminder of his mission. Aww, that's kind of a bummer. He's worried about what's happened with the other girls, but he can't figure out why they're talking to each other. Ooh, zining! She's already been flirting with a guy named Zhongxiu, who's also flirting with zinging. Geez, what a bummer! . . They're hiding things from him, he says, and they won't let him help them. He promises to find them at all costs, and zingue promises to convince him to cooperate.
