Oda and the rest of the members make the owner of the bar agree to move after offering him 6,000,000 yen. As Kiryu leaves, a homeless man warns him to be wary of Tachibana and Kiryu decides to seek out more information on the group by asking the other homeless men what they know. Kiryu learns that he needs to go to Public Park 3.
