One night, Kenichiro went to the scene to attend a party with his colleague Shiro Kumazawa. Kumazawa is worried about the drinking party with Yoshino Machida, who is waiting for the party, and feels uncomfortable. Narumi, who began to suffer from abdominal pain, was rushed to the hospital, but he ate too much. The next day, Narumi visited Kenichiro and went to his office.

Around the same time, Knieda, who had just been released from prison, appears under Narumi. Kunieda is a former boyfriend of Narumi. He was arrested for growing cannabis, rooted because of Narumi and pushed the meeting, but Narumi responded casually. There, he looked up the history of Narumi's mobile phone and found out Kenichiro's name, and thought he was a newcomer and joined the company.

Furthermore, Mr. Takaishi says that if he can persuade Narumi, he will leave the construction of the next building to Kenichiro's company. That would be a great job to make a 3 billion yen project. Kenichirou promised to attend the party at the "Anya" general store where Yoshino works, but she gave up and invited Narumi to a Chinese restaurant. Narumi, who came out to the store with Yukie, can tell Kenichiro that he can't see himself even if he looks cool.

Kenichiro is not worried when he is informed that Narumi has been transferred to the hospital.

Narumi, whom Kenichiro told had suddenly visited the apartment the next morning, "I apologized to Yoshino last night," went to "Anya" where Yoshino was working after seeing everything.
