Asako wonders where Hizuru met her new friend and Hizuru states Mt. Takanosu. At Hishigata's old clinic in the mountain. Hizuru takes Asako and Ryunosuke to meet her new friend. Hizuru explains that she always appears at the same time, but as they wait, no one shows up. Ryunosuke and Asako decide to leave, but Hizuru had promised to meet her friend today, so she decides to stay. Moments later, Heine shows up and Hizuru greets her.

Months later, Asako and Ryunosuke check the Kobe mart, hearing that Hizuru brought snacks and intended to eat them with a friend, making them realize she is meeting Haine. Ryunosuke heads towards the clinic to bring some water to Hizuru. On his way, he hears something and goes to check it. He sees Haine, who was bloody and eating a small animal. Hizuru sees a flash and upon checking it, she finds Haine over the dead Ryunosuke. Hizuru wonders if she did it. Haine comes back to her sense, and turns into Ryunosuke. She starts denying it and as she yells, a flash occurs and her eye is blown away. Hizuru's covers her left eye, but her right is exposed to the light and receives Ryunosuke's data.
