Nicole is surprised by the speed of the interrogation but insists the mastermind is the next Director-General of Bringer Industries. Yanagi calmly points out that "the testimony only suggests there is another primary culprit and doesn't prove the Director's criminal involvement." Nicole is frustrated by Yanagi's roundabout explanation. Miyabi trusts Yanagi's judgment and says they should investigate the background of the incident further. Nicole kicks up a fuss, claiming Yanagi smiled triumphantly, to which Yanagi replies, "I was just adjusting my glasses." Nekomata and Harumasa tease Yanagi for being the "class president type." Anby suddenly warns the others, "Don't get any closer" and "Don't enter my blind spot," causing the atmosphere to shift instantly. Harumasa hints that he has even seen through the movement of Billy's holster. Billy responds, "I'll lower my hands once Anby lets go of her weapon's hilt." Nicole panics, saying, "Don't make a scene when Guest is right here!" Buriko is busy applying makeup.
