Tanizaki tracks down the company that owns the truck that Atsushi was kidnapped in, but discovers that all the employees were killed by Akutagawa.

Tanizaki tells Kunikida that Atsushi has been kidnapped, Kunikida showing annoyance as the agency is busy with an earlier request to protect a ministry officer. Tanizaki tells Kunikida the details of Atsushi's kidnapping, Kunikida becoming frustrated as the people who'd taken Atsushi to have numerous trafficking routes making it difficult for them to track Atsushi down. Tanizaki says they need to save him to which Ranpo interrupts, asking why it's necessary. Kunikida and Tanizaki give Ranpo a surprised look and Ranpo explains that Atsushi getting kidnapped is a personal problem and that they aren't his personal bodyguards. Tanizaki argues that Atsushi is apart of the agency, but Kunikida agrees with Ranpo, saying they shouldn't do anything. Overhearing their conversation, Naomi furrowed her eyebrows. Ranpo suggests calling the police, but Kunikida says that because of Atsushi's bounty, calling the police would just make it public that Atsushi is with the agency, damaging their reputation. Tanizaki says they can come up with an explanation when a voice interrupts them.

Fukuzawa interrupts him, making an announcement to everyone that they must save Atsushi and drop everything until he is safely returned. Kunikida asks what they should do about the request to protect the ministry officer and Fukuzawa says he'll handle the explanation.

Chūya comments on what a great view Dazai being held captive is, Dazai cursing under his breath with a cringed yet horrified expression. Chūya is amused by Dazai's reaction, cracking his knuckles as he says just how happy he'll be to strangle him. Dazai mocks Chūya's height, going on to ask why he got such an embarrassing hat to wear. Chūya replies that Dazai is weirder, and asks if he still talks about suicide. Dazai plainly confirms and Chūya says he should at least try and deny it. Chūya smirks and says that Dazai has become nothing but a pathetic prisoner, grabbing Dazai's head and pulling him closer to his face and saying that it's almost too easy and suspicious.

Dazai says he's being paranoid, and his hair will fall out if he keeps fretting so much, about to ask Chūya a question when Chūya takes off his hat and says he's not trying to hide a bald patch. Dazai asks why Chūya is here, and Chūya says he's here to spite him. Chūya suddenly kicks the wall above Dazai, snapping the shackle's link's, Dazai looking back to the large crater in the wall Chūya has created. Chūya points to Dazai, saying he has no idea what he's planning, but he wants to fight him and foil his plan by ending his life. Dazai interrupts Chūya, snapping his fingers as the remaining part of the shackles breaks off his wrists. Dazai asks if Chūya's joking, revealing a bobby pin in his hand. Chūya realizes Dazai could've escaped anytime, saying this is much more interesting as he charges at Dazai.
