Amon Koutarou noticed that this time, besides his quinque case, Mado was also carrying a leather bag. The bag was bulging, clearly indicating it contained something.
Curiosity piqued, Amon Koutarou asked, "Senior Mado, what's in the leather bag you're carrying?"
"Amon, it's best if you don't know!" Mado did not tell Amon Koutarou what was in the bag.
Hearing this, Amon Koutarou didn't ask further questions and then proceeded to Elementary School with Mado.
According to Mado's arrangement, Mado would go alone, while Amon Koutarou and Satou Kaede would go together. Mado was concerned about Amon Koutarou being alone, and with Satou Kaede as backup, he believed they would be much safer.
At exactly 6:00 PM, the closing time for Anteiku coffee shop, Kaya Irimi and Enji Koma had already left. Nishio Nishiki was not at work today due to his studies.
University is different from high school, so Nishio Nishiki and Kaneki Ken had more working hours at Anteiku. They would come to work whenever they didn't have classes.
Touka Kirishima, on the other hand, attended high school. Apart from weekends off, she had to attend classes from Monday to Friday.
Therefore, Touka Kirishima worked at Anteiku on weekends and attended school from Monday to Friday.
Kaneki Ken was working at the shop today as he had no classes.
At this moment, Ryuuji and Kousen Yoshimura were cleaning the counter, while Kaneki Ken was responsible for cleaning each table.
Just then, Masato Fueguchi rushed down from the second floor and came before Kousen Yoshimura, saying anxiously, "Senior Yoshimura! Hinami went to find the White Heron alone!!"
After speaking, Masato Fueguchi handed a drawing paper to Kousen Yoshimura. Kousen Yoshimura stopped what he was doing and looked at the drawing.
Masato Fueguchi's words also attracted Ryuuji and Kaneki Ken. Ryuuji, standing at the counter, leaned closer to Kousen Yoshimura and could clearly see the contents of the drawing.
The drawing was indeed written by Hinami, with very shaky handwriting and a very brief message.
"Dad, I'm going to heaven to find Mom! I will die at the place I used to go to school!"
The message was very short but indicated her destination. Kousen Yoshimura quickly realized that this was Hinami's plan to force Anteiku to intervene, and she was using her own life as a price.
It could be said that if they did not take action, Hinami's outcome would be death.
From the content of this drawing, Kousen Yoshimura could feel Hinami's despair at losing her mother, and he couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
"Where is the elementary school Hinami mentioned?" Kousen Yoshimura asked directly, without any preamble.
"Elementary School!" Masato Fueguchi answered immediately.
"Senior Yoshimura, you must save Hinami! I've already lost Ryoko; I can't lose Hinami too!" Masato Fueguchi then pleaded with Kousen Yoshimura.
"Ryuuji, I'm asking you to go to Elementary School as quickly as possible. Renji will be there to support you immediately!"
Kousen Yoshimura did not intend to go himself this time. Instead, he assigned Ryuuji the task of rescuing Hinami, showing his absolute trust in him.
"I'll go too! I'm very familiar with Elementary School!" Kaneki Ken volunteered at this moment.
