Synopsis
In the hospital, Kibi is recovering from the reimplantation of his arm and invites Tao ,who was visiting, to come closer. Tao is nervous and regrets having gone to visit, but Kibi insists that he approaches. Kibi asks if he shouldn't be in the academy and Tao reveals that he was suspended for two weeks. Tao mentions that although what happened is seen as an incident that rarely happens, it only took him a few stretches for something so horrible to happen. Tao declares that although it was an accident that does not exempt what he did to him and asks him if there is anything he can do to compensate him. Kibi asks him to touch his hand, but Tao flatly refuses to touch another herbivore again. Kibi tells him that he does not want to spend the rest of his life being afraid of carnivores, so he wants him to take his hand so that they can make up. Tao slowly takes his hand and surprisingly Kibi takes Tao's hand, revealing that he can move it. Tao is happy and Kibi tells him that he will recover soon. Kibi tells him that he had to go through a lot of pain but that he understands that Tao also suffered a lot and thanks him for visiting him.

The next day, Tao texts Dom saying that Kibi is recovering and the members of the drama club rejoice. Riz mentions that he thinks of visiting Kibi, which makes Legoshi upset. He tries to keep himself calm until Riz mentions that although it was an accident, Tao hurt Kibi and it is a crime to be careless around herbivores, causing Legoshi to rage and face him in front of everyone. Riz tries to calm him claiming that Tao is inferior to him for not being able to control himself and whispers that he does not feel torment because he knows what an herbivore tastes. Pina interrupts them by diverting attention to the projector lamp that Legoshi broke and tells them to control themselves as to not do any more damage than they have already done. Legoshi excuses himself and the scandal is avoided, but Legoshi is left thinking.

Later, Pina and Legoshi sit on a bench in the academy courtyard where they talk. Pina tells him not to wait for him to solve every disaster he makes since they are the only ones who know that Riz is the murderer. Legoshi apologizes and Pina alleges that he does not blame him for bothering him since Riz seems to be used to maintaining his good bear act. Legoshi tells him that he has him as an ally but that Riz acts alone and secretly wonders how is it that Riz can be so calm before such a moment. Pina compares it alleging that it is as if Legoshi was a virgin and Riz is not. Legoshi affirms it saying that Riz knows something that he does not, so he has to know how he thinks. Pina tells him that because he wants to think like a criminal and Legoshi replies that everyone has the potential to become criminals, especially carnivores, Pina asks him if he plans to eat him to get closer to Riz. Legoshi denies it but alleges that he must find a way to solve the case and because he wants him and Riz to understand each other when fighting. Legoshi leaves and Pina thinks to himself that he would not be surprised if Legoshi becomes a sex offender.
