It is revealed that Ringo's younger brother, Fuyuki, is under the care of Junko Nakahara in the hospital.

Later, Junko calls Ringo and tells her that she will let her see her brother today. The freshman girl invites the girls to meet her brother. Before Ringo meets up with them, Michiko tries to warn her again, but she pins the older girl to the wall with her light blue hair clips that turned into ribbons that make Michiko invisible.

Ringo leads Noriko, Anri, and Chiharu down to a special ward in the hospital basement. They come to room 009. Ringo walks over to Fuyuki's bed, thinking that he is hiding under the sheets.
