Souta worriedly runs in: Sis! He stumbles, and Kagome consoles him: It's okay, everyone's fine. Don't worry. Just then! This makes a very thundering, metal-screeching sound, and Kagome and Souta run off to its source. One urges the truck to stop ... and it plain doesn't! It hurls cop cars a good 10 metres and more. And murderously careens away from the roadblocks! An officer sends forth police cars after the runaway truck, and soon a radio announces: This just in. A firetruck has run out of control and is causing accidents everywhere. The number of injuries is unknown. It's very hard to understand, but no bodies were found at the scenes of the collisions. It's a mysterious, very mysterious incident. Elsewhere rides Noh-noh: We pan to the hospital, and Kagome asks: Mama, how's Grampa? Mama: The doctor said he'll pull through, but he still hasn't regained consciousness. I'm sure there's no need to worry. He has his age, after all. Kagome points to what Mama carries and asks why  she holds them. When he was rescued, he had these on his face. They say he also put some in his mouth. And then Grampa groans out from the slumbers of sleep...: Flesh-eating Noh mask.. Mask of Flesh... It's nighttime at the Higurashi residence. Kagome's studying, and talks to Souta: So mom's staying overnight to watch over Grampa. Souta pulls in a blanket and Buyo: Sis, can I sleep here tonight? Kagome: What are you saying? You're a boy. Souta persists. What a scaredy cat... Sleep in your room tonight! There's a test again tomorrow, so I'm busy. Souta: Grampa...  had scrolls in his mouth and poured sacred sake onto himself... Something strange must've happened in the storage! Kagome recalls Gramp's cry. The funky window shakes. Kagome wonders why strange things are happening.. ... and then sights the jewel shards: It's because I brought these... Whistles blow and sirens flash at a roadblock hoping to slow the firetruck. Patrol cars tow alongside. Such small space prevents sudden firetruck speed. Yet... ... Noh-noh here does pass through.
