Synopsis
With difficulties, Haru and Legoshi manage to get out of the Shishigumi hidout, discovering other defeated Shishigumi members. As they are leaving, the Shishigumi boss prepares to shoot and kill Legoshi, but is suddenly shot in the hand by Louis who quickly puts the gun in the boss's mouth and demands that he beg for his life. The boss complies but Louis kills him anyway. Three members enter and see the scene. Louis presents himself as "No. 4", drops his gun and asks the members of the Shishigumi to devour him while laughing.

Outside the Black Market, Haru tended to Legoshi's injuries while resting on a bench in a nearby park. Legoshi wakes up and Haru apologizes to him for the problems she caused him and asks him for his reasons for saving her. Legoshi replies that now he just wants to eat something. They go to eat at a nearby restaurant, where they talk. Before they leave, they discover that there are no trains available until morning. Haru proposes to look for a hotel with the money that Legoshi has left.
