== Short Summary ==
"The Case of Ritsu Onodera No.35" opens with Ritsu Onodera in a video call with Aoi Fujishiro. Ritsu is having trouble conveying to Fujishiro the reason why he wants to change the way that they work together. Masamune Takano comes in and helps to smooth things over, his words calling back to what he told Fujishiro in No.32, to trust Ritsu. Things wrap up smoothly, and the two of them leave to return to the Emerald department, discussing how they each want Fujishiro to grow into a proper manga author, and that Ritsu needs to be more confident in his guidance of her. Before they can continue to talk, Ritsu's phone rings. It's a call from his mother. She's insisting that Ritsu should come home for his father's birthday that's coming up, and additionally let's it slip that Ritsu contractually only has two years left at Marukawa. This is the first that Ritsu is hearing of such a thing, and it turns out that it was something that his father talked about with Ryuichiro Isaka during Ritsu's hiring process. This causes Ritsu a lot of anxiety, and he worries that his co-workers and Takano had known about this all along.
After work, Takano's air conditioning unit breaks down, and he asks if he can stay the night at Ritsu's. While he's over, he confronts Ritsu about why he's been acting awkwardly since his phone call with his mother, and he tells Takano about what he had heard. Takano is absolutely furious about it, having had no idea about the contract, and hating the idea that he had spent as much time as he had cultivating Ritsu's skills as a manga editor only to have him leave. He says that Ritsu is an invaluable member of the Emerald team, and that it would be troublesome if he left. Soon, they get intimate, even breaking one of the "rules" that were put into place in No.32. In the morning, Ritsu wakes up to Takano making breakfast for him. He's about to head out for a morning meeting, but Ritsu asks where he plans to stay for the remainder of his time waiting for his air conditioning to get fixed. Takano says he'll probably stay at a hotel, but Ritsu offers to let him stay at his apartment.
