Detailed Summary
Yanagin and Habara are walking with their respective seniors, when each group spies the other walking towards them. Almost immediately, the seniors start trading insults. Habara’s senior blames Yanagin’s senior for the ‘horrible stench’ in the area, who responds that she should turn herself in to the police. She continues, now insulting Habara for being a “scum’s junior”, while praising her own junior as an excellent person.

The two juniors seem put off, but stay silent. Habara’s senior is dismissive of Yanagin and tries to praise Habara, but falls short when she realises there’s nothing she can think of. In an effort to change the subject, she resorts to calling the other group a ‘pack of mad dogs’. This doesn’t sit well with Yanagin, who protests and tells them that unlike the seniors, she had never suffered any traumatic wounds during her childhood. At the mention of traumatic wounds, Habara’s eyes light up, much to Yanagin’s concern. She eagerly asks the seniors for details.

The seniors react sharply, telling her not to compare themselves to her. Habara’s senior adds that their wounds weren’t due to bullying but happened during the course of helping someone and tells her to run back to Rondalkia. The two seniors then start fighting.

At a distance, Ikushima is standing with another girl from East High, who turns out to be her senior. Watching the conflict, the senior remarks that it’s an ugly dispute and asks Ikushima if she knew why they never got along. Ikushima has no idea. Her senior tells her it all started in the 3rd year of junior school, when her lunch money was stolen one day.

The now-feuding seniors were made out to be the prime suspects back then. Each was convinced that the other was guilty and that grudge is what underlay their bad relations to this day. As for who stole the money, it was inconclusive. Ikushima’s senior then shows her an envelope labelled ‘school lunch money’ (給食費) and tells her she found the money at home the next day.

Noticing Ikushima’s severe reaction, she hesitantly asks her what she should do about it. Ikushima yells at her to confess immediately.
