Mikagami: Hasekura Reiri has asked for a truce in the conflict...
Mikagami: between our cliques.
Text: The possibility of a truce confuses the Mikagami Clique!

Mikagami: I think we should accept, but what about the rest of you?
SFX: Shock
Girls: We can't!

02

Girls: Why should we have to compromise!?
Girls: That's right!
Girls: They're the ones who started it!

Mikagami: Hasekura believes that inciting incident was set up by a third party.

Mikagami: She hasn't proven it yet, but I think she may be onto something.

Mikagami: If someone is pulling the strings, continuing this conflict plays right into their hands.

03

Girls: She's just diverting blame from her clique!
Girls: She's buying time to scheme!
Mikagami: Personally...

Mikagami: I believe preventing any further victims...
Mikagami: is more important than getting back at the Hasekura Clique.
Mikagami: So if the inter-clique conflict comes to an end...

Mikagami: I promise to use my power on everyone here.

04

SFX: Rattle
SFX: Sit

Girls: W-well, if Hasekura seems sure of it.
Girls: Let's see what she can turn up.
Rina: So calculating!!

Sena: If we tried anything and the conflict kept going...
Rina: we could end up with all-out war whether there's a third party or not.

Rina: Even when she's making a cheap gamble...
Rina: Mikagami-sama pulls out all the stops.
Sena: I love that about her.

06

Hasekura: Nothing's happening!
SFX: Sit up

Hasekura: It's been 4 days since the truce with the Mikagami Clique...
Hasekura: but whoever set up the conflict still hasn't made their move.

Hasekura: I thought they would panic and try something when it ended so suddenly.
Hasekura: Does this mean they already accomplished what they wanted?

Hasekura: And no one's attacked me while I blatantly sniff around.
SFX: Pat pat

Hasekura: Are they certain I can't find anything even with...
Hasekura: my clique and Misaka to help me?

07

Hasekura: Enough calm observation. I need to an invite a threatening special guest.
Hasekura: Although I'm sure she'll refuse.

Misaki: N.

Misaki: O.

Hasekura: Yeah, that's about what I thought.

08

Misaki: I don't care about your clique nonsense, so leave me out of that mess.

Junko: But we made friends the other day, so let's help.
Misaki: We are not friends!!

Misaki: Besides...

Hasekura: 1. You don't gain anything by helping.

09

Hasekura: 2. You can't trust someone whose mind you can't read.
Hasekura: Does that cover it?
Misaki: Grr.

Misaki: You really piss me off sometimes.
Hasekura: I'm honored.

Hasekura: So.

10

Hasekura: Can I at least use your name?

Girls: I heard Hasekura-sama is getting Shokuhou Misaki's help.

Girls: And I heard she already has Misaka Mikoto's help.
Girls: If so, she can investigate online and in real life.

11

Girls: But Shokuhou is even more of a lone wolf than Misaka Mikoto.

Girls: I never thought both Level 5s would help her.

Girls: Our analysis said this was a nigh impossible scenario...
Girls: but the rumor is the deal is made and the investigation has begun.

Girls: Look at that.

12

Girls: That's Asato and Mibuki from the Hasekura Clique.
Girls: Since when are they so close?

Junko: How do you get your protein?
Mibuki: Mostly raw whey of late.
Mibuki: It works surprisingly well as a secret ingredient in curry.

Junko: Whey is wonderful, isn't it!?
Junko: When I make cottage cheese, I tend to use the whey for...
Misaki: Hey.

Misaki: Are you really going to stay with us 24/7?

13

Asato: We are.
Asato: Hasekura-sama told us to guard you as an honored guest.

Misaki: Guard me, huh?

Hasekura: So can I at least use your name?

Hasekura: A rumor saying you're helping me...
Hasekura: No, that you might be helping me should be effective.
Hasekura: The villain will never have expected you to join me, so I'm sure they'll panic.

Hasekura: Oh.
SFX: Scoot

Hasekura: If they know a largescale investigation with Mental Out is approaching, they should move to prevent it.

14

Hasekura: And that gives us a chance of catching them, right?

Hasekura: They might decide to attack you instead of me...
Hasekura: but I'll assign Kisa and Kazan to you as bodyguards.
Misaki: Bodyguards? Yeah, right.

Misaki: You sent your closest aides to me...
Misaki: to show off our friendship ability.

Misaki: A clever move.

Box: 3 Days Later

Hasekura: I've sown the seeds, so when will they act?

Hasekura: By the way, why are you with me?
Kessai: Asato-senpai asked me to set up a smokescreen and shield you if necessary.
Hasekura: That girl is such a worrywart.

16

Sha: Hasekura-senpai.

Hasekura: Sha.
Hasekura: What are you doing here?

Sha: Making the pottery plates I give out as volunteer work.
Hasekura: Huh. So you work hard too.

Sha: But forget about that!

Sha: How could you ignore me and work with Shokuhou-san instead!?
Sha: You should have come to me first if you needed help!
Sha: The teachers even told me to intervene!
SFX: Mad
Hasekura: But...
Hasekura: I can't work with my rival for biggest clique.

17

Hasekura: And I could be attacked at any time, so being with me could get you caught in the middle of it.

Hasekura: Should you really be out here all alone?

Sha: I'm carrying B-rex and omegalodon fossils with me.
Hasekura: Isn't that overkill?
Hasekura(small): Can you control them?

SFX: Whoo

18

SFX: ooosh

SFX: Splash splash splash

SFX: Bubble bubble

Hasekura: No bullets. An Aero Shooter attack!?

19

Sha: Wah
Sha: Wah
Hasekura: Don't use them!!
Hasekura: Kessai, smokescreen!!
Kessai: On it!
SFX: Pshhhh

SFX: Whoosh

SFX: Swell swell

SFX: Spray

SFX: Slice slice

SFX: Clack clunk

Hasekura: Are those Sukezawa's calcium arrows?
Sha: Gasp.
