After returning to the mansion and recovering from being confined to bed, the narrator thinks that being praised as a hero could help with Guard duties, but in Catacle's eyes he may look like an agent who ruined the plan. He questions Themis's death, Crown Prince Harold's role, and the Catacle agent. He wants to talk about Lou and Charles and attend Themis's funeral, feeling guilty. At the funeral, he meets Pinky, who was waiting for him, to exchange information, and they discuss the fate of Vice Principal Henry.
