Summary

As the other groups accompany Korosensei on a tour through Kyoto, a professional shooter known as Red Eye is contracted to pick him off from a series of vantage points. Every shot he lines up is foiled by some unlikely twist of chance, and the job is ultimately scrapped when Nagisa's group runs into trouble with the delinquents. That night, Korosensei seeks Red Eye out himself, buying him a meal and thanking him for turning the trip into a genuine learning experience for the class through his attempts.
