Koguma visits Reiko at her home, and the two have dinner together. Reiko recounts the story of how she took a job at the Mountain Hut Kikuya over the summer as a means to pursue her own dream, something which proved to be more difficult than expected.
There are no streetlights out here,
so it's pitch-black at night.
In dieser Gegend gibt
es keine Straßenbeleuchtung.
No hay luminarias aquí, así que
en la noche está oscuro como boca de lobo.
Ahí fuera no hay farolas,
de noche no se ve nada.
Y a pas de lampadaires ici,
on voit que dalle.
Aqui não há luzes de rua,
é um breu à noite.
