!!Chapter IV
* Chapter 26: Miu, in a depressed drunken state, tries to get Kaede to help her with a murder plan. Kaede, naturally, refuses, and gives her a verbal dressing down for even considering it ... which dovetails into her admitting ''she'' killed Rantaro, not Shuichi, and has been haunted by that ever since. Miu, shocked, ends up breaking down crying in Kaede's arms, terrified of seeing anyone else ([[OnlyFriend especially Kaede]]) die.
