Tomitake is sent to the clinic. Irie sees this and escapes from there by car. The group follows Irie and he crashes down an embankment, but he ends up meeting Shion and Kasai. They end up unintentionally revealing Rika's hideout to the group by a transmitter hidden in the lab coat. As they arrive at the estate, Shion and Kasai fight the intruders. They pretend to be unconscious, allowing the others to hide in the tunnel. When the military threatens to drop Shion down there, Rika decides to surrender herself in exchange for their safety. Before Okonogi breaks the deal, Akasaka, disguised as one of the soldiers, saves Rika, attacking the rest and forcing them to leave. Keiichi and friends plan to strike back. In the midst of the formation of their counterattack, Irie tells Shion that Satoshi is alive at the clinic.
