Hakari approaches Yuji and asks him if he believes he can earn one million yen per month by only working one hour a day. Yuji, feeling confused, asks Hakari about the details, but Hakari insists that Yuji needs to pay him two hundred thousand yen for that information. Recognizing it as a scam, Yuji refuses, stating that it's shady. Hakari agrees, acknowledging that it's a classic con where scammers sell get-rich-quick tips. He points out that while it's obviously a scam, many people still fall for it due to the allure of the "fever". Hakari explains that in scams like these, both the scammer and the victim are under the influence of the fever to change their lives. He mentions that people make foolish choices when they are caught up in this fever, but also notes that even falling in love requires a certain degree of it. Yuji suggests that gambling could be a direct way to engage with the fever, which Hakari confirms. He shares that he has had previous relationships end because his partners disliked gambling, but he believes life itself is a gamble. Hakari argues that society tends to criticize losers who don't know when to quit, but emphasizes that everyone takes risks in life, and what people truly despise is losing and facing ruin. While in the middle of their conversation, Hakari receives a suspicious phone call, interrupting their meeting. Yuji mentions that some people simply want to live peacefully, but Hakari claims not to know anyone like that. He reveals his plan to control the fever of the entire country through his fight club. With the existence of cursed spirits being revealed to the public and changes to jujutsu regulations on the horizon, Hakari aims to take advantage of the situation and expand his business, making the headquarters of jujutsu aware of his ambitions. Suddenly, Hakari accuses Yuji of being a spy for Jujutsu High and launches an attack against him. Despite the attack, Hakari appears excited about the future and expresses the need for strong allies. He asks Yuji if he wants to experience the fever with him. Before Yuji can bring up Jujutsu High and request assistance, their conversation is interrupted by a phone call. Hakari lets the call go to voicemail and offers Yuji a drink, even though he is underage. He jokingly mentions that Satoru Gojo, a well-known figure, also cannot drink. Yuji feigns ignorance about Gojo, which raises suspicion since Gojo is widely recognized by sorcerers. As Hakari finishes his drink, he confronts Yuji and directly asks if he is a spy from Jujutsu High. Before Yuji can defend himself, Hakari throws his drink glass at him. Yuji manages to deflect the glass, but Hakari then activates his cursed technique and summons two sliding doors that attempt to crush Yuji between them. Yuji jumps above the doors and tries to speak up, but Hakari continues his attack. Hakari reveals that a call from Kirara indicates that something is amiss. Yuji recalls Megumi's advice about seeking cooperation and decides to headbutt Hakari. However, Hakari refuses to listen, claiming that his fever has subsided. Meanwhile, Kirara finds themselves in a stalemate with Panda and Megumi due to their technique. Megumi seizes this opportunity to talk and explains that they are not aligned with Jujutsu High. They express the need for Hakari's help, but Kirara remains skeptical. Megumi tries to share what happened between them and the higher-ups, and Panda adds that Hakari's approach to jujutsu blends traditional methods with technology. Kirara points out that Jujutsu High has lost in the past due to their misplaced priorities. They argue that they always have Satoru Gojo to fix their problems, so why should they ask for help now? Megumi attempts to reveal that Gojo has been sealed, but Kirara reacts with comical disbelief, clearly not believing Megumi's claim. In response, Megumi activates his Rabbit Escape technique, summoning multiple rabbit shikigami. Both Megumi and Panda are aware that Kirara is close to Hakari, and they hope that by convincing Kirara, negotiations with Hakari will go more smoothly.
