Watanuki comes to his house late at night with a bento and miso soup, which he insists are simply leftovers. Doumeki is irreverent, causing Watanuki to flare up. When Doumeki tells Watanuki to go home due to the late hour (and ghosts come out more easily at night), Watanuki decides to stay and help Doumeki with his research. Through an accident on Watanuki's part, Doumeki finds a hidden book written by his grandfather in writing so complicated that Watanuki can't read it (though Doumeki can). Doumeki finds a spell for getting back an eye stolen by a spider, but before he can read it fully, a book on the table comes alive. The kanji on the page form a worm-like creature, which jumps into Doumeki's grandfather's book. Watanuki panics and stops Doumeki from confronting the creature, and calls for Yuuko instead. Yuuko immediately appears. She feed the paper wards in the storeroom, written by Doumeki's grandfather, to the worm, which turns into an inert ball of string. Yuuko explains that the worm is a bookworm, a type of spirit that likes to eat highly valued words, and that the magic in Doumeki's grandfather's paper wards have neutralized it. Doumeki opens his grandfather's book to find that the entire spider spell has been erased, eaten by the bookworm. Yuuko asks who the owner of the book from which the bookworm originated is, and Watanuki says it is Himawari's book, before panicking over the half-erased state of the text. Upon questioning, Yuuko reveals that she came for the purpose of looking at Doumeki's extensive storeroom of objects. To Watanuki's ire, she asks him to cook food, and also reveals that the bento brought by Watanuki for Doumeki was specially made for him, causing Watanuki embarassment. |

On his first visit to the well, Watanuki is forced to trespass into a private garden of a house and notices a woman sitting at a high window. She does not move, but the sight perturbs Watanuki. When he returns for more water with Doumeki, the woman is in the same place in the same clothes. Watanuki establishes that the woman is not a spirit, because Doumeki can see him with his normal eye, but Doumeki later says that she reminds him of something he's seen before. Himawari and Watanuki both comment that Doumeki is being cryptic, unlike his usual self, but he doesn't reply. Later, Watanuki 'pinky-promises' Himawari that he won't overwork himself. When he next collects water, his little finger hurts and the wrapper of his water container is blown into the window of the woman in the house. Doumeki and Watanuki enter the house, which is empty and silent. Watanuki is spooked. Doumeki and Watanuki find the woman, who falls inert to the floor in a gust of wind. Watanuki assumes she's a doll, but Yuuko, who appears, asks Doumeki to give his view. Doumeki says it is something he has seen many times since childhood, a corpse. When Watanuki protests that a corpse would have putrefied in the summer heat, Doumeki points out that, according his grandfather, corpses of the modern age do not rot because of the preservatives that people consume.
