Poe tells Ranpo he prefers working at the library over the Guild's suite, but Ranpo quickly sees through the excuse. When he discovers Poe secretly quit the Guild, he confronts him-only to find out Poe simply didn't want to be his enemy. Unsure how to process the innocent confession, Ranpo starts questioning Poe's feelings... and maybe his own.
A spontaneous invite to the bakery turns into a walk, a fight with a drunk stranger, and an unexpected moment of hand-holding under the setting sun. As the two sit quietly in the park afterward, surrounded by blooming moonflowers, Ranpo begins to realize the truth: Poe might not just be trying to prove himself-he might actually care.
