"Manager!" Touka Kirishima called out to Yoshimura Kousan, seemingly asking for his opinion on the matter.
Yoshimura Kousan didn't speak. He just looked at Touka Kirishima for a moment and then continued with his work.
Yoshimura Kousan took no action or measures, appearing indifferent to the situation. It wasn't that he was heartless, but rather that it wasn't the right time to act. He couldn't simply close the shop and have everyone search Zone 20 for the person.
Although it wasn't a good thing that Hinami's father was being sought, it at least meant he was safe; otherwise, he wouldn't have been issued a warrant.
Therefore, Yoshimura Kousan wasn't overly worried.
Hinami, watching TV on the second floor, suddenly exclaimed when she saw her father's portrait on the screen, shouting, "Mom! It's Dad! Dad's on TV!"
But before she could rejoice for long, Hinami's excited mood plummeted to the depths. The news anchor's report made Hinami realize that the reason her father was on TV was because he was wanted.
It was only then that Hinami realized that for her father, a {Ghoul}, to be on television, it couldn't possibly be good news!
"Mom, Dad is wanted by the CCG! Will I not be able to see Dad anymore?" Hinami cried, throwing herself into her mother's arms.
Upon seeing the news, Mrs. Ryoko not only worried about her husband but also began to worry about Ryuji.
"It's okay! Hinami will definitely see Dad!" Mrs. Ryoko comforted her.
As night fell, Kaneki Ken went home after work. Yoshimura Kousan did not ask Kaneki Ken to get involved in the matter of Hinami's father being wanted.
Kaneki Ken didn't notice anything unusual and went home after work as usual.
After Kaneki Ken left, Touka Kirishima couldn't help but complain, "Where did that guy Ryuji go! He's not here at such a crucial time! It's this late and he's still not back!"
Touka Kirishima complained because she had already come to regard Ryuji as an indispensable part of Anteiku, or perhaps, in her heart, she already considered Ryuji her significant other. That's why she wanted Ryuji to help at this moment.
If Ryuji didn't have a mobile phone, Touka Kirishima would have already called him.
Thinking of this, Touka Kirishima added, "When he gets back, I must make him buy a mobile phone! What era is this? Someone who doesn't use a mobile phone! He really thinks he's from the old society!"
"Touka-chan! I'm sorry!" At this moment, Mrs. Ryoko, who had come down from the second floor with Hinami, immediately apologized to Touka Kirishima.
Touka Kirishima was a bit confused by Mrs. Ryoko's apology, but she soon assumed that Mrs. Ryoko felt guilty towards Anteiku because of her husband being wanted.
"Mrs. Ryoko, there's nothing to apologize for. If Mr. Fueguchi is wanted, it's the fault of the detestable CCG! We will definitely find Mr. Fueguchi before the CCG does!" Touka Kirishima comforted her.
"I'm not apologizing for that. I shouldn't have let your boyfriend act so recklessly! Relying on him to protect Mr. Fueguchi! I'm sorry!" Mrs. Ryoko apologized to Touka Kirishima with genuine remorse and guilt.
Hearing this, Touka Kirishima gradually began to realize that the "boyfriend" Mrs. Ryoko mentioned might be referring to Ryuji.
