Awakening from a near-kiss from Kuroko, Mikoto walks off, just as Kiyama Harumi walks in; introducing herself as a person doing research on brain psychology (specialising in AIM diffusion fields). Mikoto comes back from the bathroom and meets Harumi, who notes that she knows Mikoto. Harumi tells the duo that there has been no conclusion as to the cause of the student's coma, telling the gathered scientists that she came also to monitor the health conditions of the students. Kuroko asks Harumi about a 'Level Upper', but Harumi seemingly can't help because of a lack of information as to the 'Level Upper'.
