◆The story of Episode 4 is as follows
Kiyu, in his first year at the gas shop, experienced great success as a new employee, then a great failure as a new employee. Kiyu was very depressed because of his honest personality, but by experiencing a new job, he made an important discovery . This change was short-lived, as the company where Kiyu works, Hoshimi Life Equipment, was hit with a problem: a resident had run away in the middle of the night.



Gas can only be used as long as the gas bill is paid. If the residents run away, the gas service must be stopped.



Shut off the gas main valve and stop the gas meter. Cases of 'running away in the middle of the night' are rare, but shutting off the gas is a task that Kiyu will have to repeat many times in the future as a gas technician.



Kiyu was feeling a bit blue when he accidentally spotted a familiar figure.



Kiyu's boss, Iga-senpai, happens to be visiting the same apartment as Kiyu. The house Iga-senpai is visiting is on the verge of losing its gas service due to overdue gas bill payments. If you are two months behind on your gas bill, your gas will be cut off, and when you want it turned back on, you have to pay an additional opening fee in addition to the overdue amount. How does this exposure to the reality of business change Kiyu? And what is the 'own idea' that Kiyu finds to tackle his work?
