This little interlude from Kojima was really nice! So he does know who this friend is, which in turn makes me wonder that even if he and Iwasaki studied together, Okumori, Tomoka and Iwasaki were maybe friends from even waaaaay back and didn't attend the same school before.
It's also nice seeing Iwasaki lower her bravado and Kojima making her see how this situation could be easily solved. Of course, that doesn't guarantee things will be all rose and peachy, however the burden on her would ease of her words and apology is sincere and comes from the heart.
This insight about her coming from Kojima was lovely instead of prying into her POV and getting the answers.
