For some reason, Nezumi-Otoko accompanying him makes him feel relieved.

However, Nezumi-Otoko comes to help him.

Meanwhile, Nezumi-Otoko decides to NOT run away to another country, and helps Kitaro.

Kitaro is far from foolish. He /knows/ the huge possibility of his action failing. Nevertheless, he wants to keep trying anyway, believing that a miracle might happen.

Kitaro wants his youkai companions to give him some time, as he tries to negotiate with the prime minister.

Of course, Nurarihyon is the one pulling the strings, and all people involved in his "game" are mere "puppets".

With the situation between youkais and humans becoming worse, youkai who is caught in the middle (Kitaro, especially) is loathed by both sides.

Just like last year, Mana and Neko Musume met for the last time before something REALLY bad happened, explaining what happened on both sides.

That attack just worsened the relationship between youkais and humans, so media has pushed the prime minister to make an attempt.

Well, remember episode 83 about how she made Anti-Youkai Act complete with biological weapon that could kill youkais? Yeah, that.
