Part I, Chapter 3, Aomame Summary

Aomame continues descending the stairway. She thinks about a sexual experience she had with another girl at summer camp years before. This causes her to think about the past and the future -dates, times, and places. She gets to the bottom of the stairs, finds a locked gate, but slips through a hole in the metal fence that surrounds her. She gets on the subway and reaches Shibuya Station, changes into a business suit in the bathroom, and heads to a nearby hotel.

She then heads to room 426, where she meets Mr. Miyama, a callous businessman. There, she informs him he has a spot of paint on his neck, and while examining it, she pushes a thin needle into his neck, puncturing a part of his brain, and kills him instantly.
