Leaving Ukifune to the place of Nakanokimi, the mother, Chujounokimi, went back to the house of the governor. Then Niou accidentally passed the room and found her there. She was very pretty indeed. He caught her hands, which were holding a fan. He approached her asking, "What is your name?" Ukifune was horrified and wondered whether this man might be Kaoru who was looking for her. Nothing further happened, but it was an unforgettable encounter for Niou.
