The Killing Game is in full swing, and everyone seems to be less scared than before. They're getting along well with each other and Nanako has made a new friend who's not one of her classmates...

Ultimate Hope and the survivor of the previous Killing Game often appear to the little girl like a ghost that only children can see. They spend time together, talk, explore the school grounds, and their relationship has become very warm. She calls her "Miss Hope" but maybe she wants to call her "Mother Hope"?
