Tsubaki: Housen-sensei, although your acting as a foolish kid is adorable... 4. Tsubaki: That's a lie, isn't it? 4. Housen: Mh!? 5. Tsubaki: "The ear is possessed by the earless Houichi,"// said Kagari, right? 5. Housen: Ah 5. Tsubaki: If she said that there were a lot of earless people, the topic would be different though.
P63 1. So the "earless Houichi" points to the only person who lives after her ear was cut, Nogiku...? 1. Housen: Huh? 1. Housen: But, that would be... 2. OOB: That pitiful Nogiku, 2.
