Summary[]
Noriko Paku earnestly waits for the Exwire gang's return at the train station. She sees the silhouettes of what appears to be the team from afar. As they approach her, she sees what appears to be a more mature version of Shiemi Moriyama, Yukio Okumura, Kuro, Rin Okumura, Nemu Takara, Ryuji Suguro, and Konekomaru Miwa. Shocked at first, she realizes that she mistook them for her friends.
She then sees another set of silhouettes in the distance, noticing what appears to be the top of Rin's Kurikara. As this group becomes more visible, she sees what appears to be a senior version of her friends. She looks down in embarrassment upon realizing again that they are not her friends.
As she looks back up past the gates, she finally sees the true version of her friends, with Rin waving over at her as the group walks over to her. Wondering where Izumo Kamiki is, Yukio realizes that he is standing in front of her and moves aside to reveal a humble-looking Izumo. She looks over at Paku with a solemn face. Without hesitation, Paku rushes over and hugs her. She then looks over at Shiemi, presumably thanking her for bring Izumo back safely, and Shiemi joins in on the group hug. Together, the whole team then heads towards the exit of the train station.
