Synopsis
Haru accompanies Legoshi to his apartment while Legoshi warns her about the decaying structure of the building. Haru says she is not interested in how the place is and simply want to see his room. When they arrive at the place, they realize that they are being watched by the neighbors. The neighbors try to find out who the rabbit Legoshi brought is, but Seven indicates that it is better to stay out of Legoshi's private affairs. Inside Legoshi's room, he feels that he has lost the ability to converse with his girlfriend, to the extent that he tells a story about a stain that he has on the ceiling of his apartment. However, that heavy atmosphere changes when Legoshi tells Haru about dropping out of school because he ate Louis's leg. She gets mad at him for ruining the moment, and angrily asks him to tell her everything while they have a date.

On the date, Legoshi told her everything - about how he discovered Riz as Tem's killer, why he ate Louis's leg, and how he supports himself financially by working at Udon Bebebe Restaurant. Upon hearing the whole story, Haru feels that Legoshi has become more handsome since he became independent. While they continue their date, Haru tells him that university is boring, full of insincere know-it-alls and that the decision Legoshi made about dropping out of school was the right one for a philosophical wolf like him. Nearing the end of their date, Haru makes a special request to Legoshi, to take her to the Black Market.
