## Plot

Nishiura first appeared in front of Yuri Honjo after the girl had just finished crossing over the connecting bridge. A surprised Yuri then aims her gun towards Nishiura, which then prompt the latter to raise both arms to show that he means her no harm. A few seconds later, both Nomura and Nakazaki appeared behind Nishiura content by the fact that they would be able to converse with Yuri as she isn't one of the "masked individuals".

While on watch Nishiura stumbles upon a white cardboard box, when he moved closer to inspect the content of the box he discovered that inside the box contains a smiling mask. He took out the mask to have a closer look, after turning the mask around to inspect the internal exterior of the mask. He found that there were weird lettering on the mask, as he leans in closer to the mask he notes that the letters were actually some sort of information code and as a result he ended up turning into an "Angel" (Individual that wears the smiling mask).

Shortly after turning into an "angel", Nishiura was seen holding a machete following behind Yuri Honjo with the intention of killing her but stopped once she entered into the female toilet and instead made his way back into the breakroom where both Nomura and Nakazaki were waiting. When the mask Nishiura entered the room Nakazaki was surprised by the appearance of his friend while Nomura on the other hand remained calm. Nomura stated that Nishiura was a fool for wearing the mask and not knowing that there was a possibility of something behind the mask. The latter then proceeds to retrieve a gun he found yesterday and pointed it at Nishiura. While Nakazaki remain hesitant, Nomura stated that this was the only way to ascertain their safety and pulled the trigger at Nishiura but ended up missing him as Nishiura dodges the bullet and sprints forward towards Nomura pushing the latter to the ground. Nishiura then approaches Nomura, slashing his body in half with the machete. He then fixate his glance towards the sobbing Nakazaki, he failed to notice Yuri was hiding by the entrance waiting for her opportunity to shoot him. However, she wasn't able to deal a fatal shot as she was hesitant about shooting down a human being and instead she shot Nishiura's right thigh to temporarily incapacitate him and escape together with Nakazaki to the rooftop.

While Nakazaki and Yuri were discussing about turning Nishiura back to normal by removing the mask, Nishiura appeared from behind of Yuri grabbing onto her wrist while she was standing near the ledge by climbing the wall. He was almost ready to slash her but stopped when she shouts that she will jump off the building of her own accordance as in this world the right to jump of the building supersedes everything else. With that she managed to tricked him and in that instance she removes her uniform to escape his loosen grip, turns around and pushes him off the ledge. However, her plan was futile as Nakazaki quickly rushes over to grabs him. In that moment just for a brief second Nishiura's memories of Nakazaki returned but in the end he was still under the influence of the mask as a result he grabs onto Nakazaki's shoulder and pulls him down together. As the both slowly reaching closer towards the ground Nishiura was laughing menacingly.
