Summary
The Mekakushi Dan confronts Kuroha while walking home from the amusement park. Everyone is surprised to see Kuroha, especially Ene, looking directly at them when Kido's ability was being used. After a moment of  silence, Kano takes the stand and talks to Kuroha. Kuroha begins to smile and talks to Kano about knowing him, which surprises Kano. Kano then turns around to tell the group something but was stopped by Kuroha with a gun. After saying a few words, Kuroha shoots Kano in the head, driving nearly the entire group hiysterical. Seto charged at Kuroha, but was shot in the stomach and later the mouth. Kido held onto Kano's body helplessly as she was repeatedly shot down. Kuroha attempted to come toward Momo, but was stopped by Shintaro. After a moment, Kuroha moves forward, and Shintaro's phone starts to make sounds. When Shintaro tried to communicate with Ene, Kuroha took the phone away and crushed crying Ene with his grip. Then the perspective switches to Shintaro as he thinks his final thoughts and then switches to Shintaro's classroom.

Shintaro checks Ayano's paper and complains about why she's not understanding the material. Ayano says it's his teaching style, but Shintaro harshly ensures her it's her own stupidity. Ayano then changes the subject and talks to Shintaro about heaven. Shintaro tells her he doesn't believe her because heaven is not proven by science. After accepting his answer, Ayano goes to the teacher's desk and starts to ask Shintaro questions, which he answers all correctly. Shintaro tells Ayano there's no point in asking him, because he already knows them all, and she's the one that needs to study. Ayano then tells him there's something he doesn't know and he needs to. The background then changes to Ayano's funeral, and Ayano asks Shintaro why she died.

Shintaro wakes up in his room on August 14 at 12:32, breathing heavily. Not remembering why he was doing that, Shintaro gets up and walks to the computer. The computer was frozen, and Shintaro starts to panic. After some time, the computer resumes activity and Shintaro, happy, drinks his soda. Ene appears, announcing some news from the internet. Shintaro relaxes and comments about her existence. Ene, a bit annoyed, tells Shintaro he opened the soda he's drinking 5 days ago. Angry, Shintaro retorts a reply. At that moment, Shintaro notices his soda spilling into Tono's food and cries. Momo then bursts in, yelling at Shintaro about how loud he was. Shintaro askes Momo to go buy new rabbit food, listing his reasons. Despite his efforts, Shintaro was dragged out of the house to go with Momo. Shintaro then starts a argument with Momo about her tagging along with him. At that moment, Hiyori and Hibiya enter the scene, ending Momo's argument.
