Story

Chapter 3.I begins in an uncertain time and place featuring Beyond speaking with Arietta, discussing the plans the two of them have. Beyond leaves her role to Arietta, who continues under the Beyond name until Beyond herself wakes up. Remora chimes in, stating that Producer is ready and that the procedure must begin. In this scene, ??? tries to remember the plan - but remembers they weren't allowed to know once it was set in motion. They let the memory fade, returning to the world before.

The next scene is Hitori waking up to a concerned STΔRLIVHT, and Hakuno is forced to reveal Sumire's DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder) and the existence of Hitori to Sera and Grace, who take it in stride - though Hitori notes he can no longer hear Sumire, to his concern.

Sera asks Hitori about Firebird, showing him a news article reporting that Firebird had killed Eito Hojo in Yumi's apartment while he'd broken in to try to kill her, though Hitori has no memory of the event, and Hakuno tells Sera that Sumire and Hitori were asleep at the time that Firebird had confronted Eito. However, discussion is paused as a Noise Beast attacks.

Even after the Noise Beast is taken care of, Sumire still does not return, and so Hakuno walks Hitori home. Despite the apartment being a literal crime scene, the place isn't too chaotic. Meanwhile, Producer announces that STΔRLIVHT activities are on hold, with the official explanation that Sumire is sick and the recent events had strained her further.

Later on, Hakuno goes to see her aunt Heather Valentine, who reveals she has a new intern: Rhyme, and the two catch up, talking about Hakuno's crush on Sumire. Depending on what the player chooses, Chapter 3.II may involve Rhyme and Hakuno visiting Hitori.

The next day, Producer deals with paperwork while Hitori helps out, and the two become familiar with each other.
