Shūrei receives the things she asked from Shūei. Tan-tan is working as a live-in worker for a woman. Shūrei and Seiga discuss their findings. Shūrei works all night to finish her report, but finds it missing after she awakens from her nap. Seeing that it is nightfall, she rushes to the Jin Clan residence. She meets Seiga who is now showing his true colors and admits to being an undercover inspector and stealing the report so Shurei will be fired. While they are conversing, Tan-tan appears and explains that his mother lives here and tells Seiga he knew what he was doing all along. He gives Shurei some missing evidence to secure she won’t be fired. Then Tan-tan yells to the Director General, who enters. The Director of the Office of Inspection is the mysterious man whom Shūrei met in the garden. He leaves after saying that Shūrei and Tan-tan will work under him. Shūrei discovers that Tan-tan's father isn't dead and that Tan-tan had asked Seiran to guard his father. At a meeting of the imperial head officials, the results of the joukan assessment which turned out to be on all officials, including upper and middle-class nobles, was given along with a list of those that should be dismissed.
