One day, shortly following the events of the Level Upper incident, Mikoto starts to feel an eerie feeling like someone is stalking her. As Mikoto continues to feel this discomforting sensation everywhere, she starts to become very paranoid and afraid. Looking into a related rumor, Kuroko and the others learn other students have also been experiencing the same sensation. While Ruiko and Konori take Mikoto to the public bath, where Ruiko gives her some encouragement, Kuroko and Kazari interview Mitsuko, Maaya and Kinuho, whose senior is also one of the victims. Thanks to Ruiko's advice and Kuroko's research, Mikoto finds the culprit behind the sensations to be Asako Jonan, an Anti-Skill officer and former Nagatenj?ki Academy teacher. Having been fired from her teaching job, supposedly due to not being able to produce any Level 5 espers, Asako blamed Tokiwadai and used a device to produce special electromagnetic waves and cause discomfort in electromasters. Asako tries to escape but, thanks to Ruiko's assistance, she is quickly captured by Mikoto and the Anti-Skills. As Mikoto rewards her friends for their help, Kazari unintentionally reveals Kuroko was also legitimately stalking Mikoto at the same time, prompting a swift punishment.

However, the baths are almost ruined after Kuroko adds too much bubble bath soap in one of her schemes to seduce Mikoto.
