Satoru and his friends approach Aya who, despite some initial resistance, starts joining them at their hideout. Later, Satoru starts to keep an eye on Misato Yanagihara, who has been by herself since being accused of framing Kayo, who seemingly disappears after going to the bathroom. Noticing a truck belonging to Jun's family leaving the scene, Satoru goes with Yashiro to chase after it, only to discover that Yashiro himself is the killer, who had used Misato to lure him into a trap. Realising that Satoru was the one thwarting his plans, Yashiro traps him in his car, which he sends into a frozen lake.
