Makio tells Sen Kagemiya and Shu Akitsu that the Night Troop is temporarily downsizing, and that weaker members will go into hiding to avoid the current plot to destroy the Shadow Organization. Masamori Sumimura has been targeted by several assassins, though he believes a different group (other than the one targeting the other executives) is responsible. Makio invites Sen and Shu to decide whether they will stay or go.
