Haruka meets with Shinichi and Tsuyoshi at Donbura to tell them about Tarou's co-workers at Shirokuma being worried that he hasn't shown up to work. Shinichi wonders if Sonoi might have something to do with this. Haruka and Tsuyoshi know Sonoi could never defeat Tarou. But Shinichi says this resurrected Sonoi is different, especially in that he acts a lot like Tarou. That has got to mean something. Haruka wants to stay hopeful and believe in Tarou for now.
