Following a series of suicides, the rail network closes, prompting Morinaga to lead the search for Kaika Itsuki. Kasumigaseki Vice Minister of Justice Yoshifumi Sekuro suggests Itsuki may not have violated the law. Assistant Officer Hiasu Sekuro, the vice minister's niece, joins Seizaki's team. Itsuki releases a video proposing a new suicide law, polarizing election candidates into opposing factions. Kasumigaseki Police Director of Unit 1 Torao also assists the investigation. Days before the election, Seizaki's team fails to locate Itsuki or Ai Magase, lacking evidence of abetment. Despite this, Seizaki eventually acquires data concerning Ai Magase, though the search remains unresolved.
