Synopsis
During an ordinary school day, Legoshi spends the day meditating on his own attitude and personality. Legoshi imagines ways to get Louis back to school, although he cannot think of a single argument that managed to convince him, as well as the attitude from school is changing alongside that of carnivores. Legoshi realizes that while Juno has the whole school under her finger and Louis has gone to a completely different world from him, Legoshi just wants to live a simple life. Soon Legoshi hears a rattling sound in the environment, which he has been listening to for days.

Later in his bedroom, Legoshi spends time with his roommates, whom he asks about the sound and the presence he has been feeling. His frightened roommates try to convince him that it is only his imagination. Collot credits this to a rumor about a six-eyed ghost that has been circulating at school, but nobody believes such a thing. Suddenly, Legoshi feels a presence at his side and reacts by hitting the wall violently, leaving a hole. Legoshi retires to the laundry room leaving his companions scared.

In the laundry room, Legoshi invites his stalker to show himself on the spot and searches for him all over the room. Suddenly the subject falls from the ceiling, revealing to be a rattlesnake. She reveals to Legoshi that she has been watching him since his fight with Bill, as well as his activities outside of school and his interactions with Haru. The snake boasts of knowing everything about Legoshi and declares that the rest of Legoshi's school life will not be peaceful.
