Reika is badly beaten, but alive. After she regains consciousness, she relates the story of the kidnapping by the Puppet Clown who appears to have mysophobia, and the murder of Yasuoga. Suspecting that something is suspicious about Youko Kafuraki's company and the relationships between the staff, Hajime asks his friend Itsuki to investigate. Meanwhile, the police find the body of Yasuoga who had been shot five times and also the hideout of the Puppet Clown. Meanwhile, Hajime begins to suspect the kidnapping was not about the ransom, and Itsuki reveals that Yasuoga is Kafuraki's nephew and a known womanizer, including possibly with Reiko Mitamura. Hajime suspects that the Puppet Clown is someone within the company. However, they all have alibis for the period when Yasuoga was shot but Hajime believes he knows the killer's identity.
