“Well, Yakumo. I kind of don’t get the current situation.”
“Ah… Did you find any problem?”
“No. When I say problem, I mean that you yourself are the problem right now, and no matter how I look at it, the medical chart doesn’t match your condition. Several fractured ribs, bruises all over your body, fissures in your right kneecap, and severe external wounds to the back of your head, abdomen, and back. Ordinarily, you’d be in bed for months, incapable of moving. I mean, you could have bled to death before that, you know.”
“Hah.”
“And yet you walked to the hospital… though you don’t seem to… have any pain disorder.”
“Well… I am a bit robust.”
“You’ve surpassed the level of robustness and are now in the realm of a monster, Yakumo. What were you doing before arriving here?”
“What was I doing… well, work, I suppose.”
“Work… such a job put you in such a state… are you a hit man or something?”
“That is precisely so. Every time you startle the receptionist, and then you just wander off as if nothing had occurred.”
“Ugh, sorry for the constant trouble…”
“Well, for now, I guess you’re going to be hospitalized. Yeah, that’s decided.”
“What!? Wait, please spare me the hospitalization…! I can’t! I don’t have time for such things!”
“Nobody goes home without being hospitalized in that condition, so resign yourself to it.”
“No way. I’m leaving right now.”
“You guys, seize Yakumo. And bring a stretcher at once.”
“Huh…!? Hold on, hold on, hold on! Wait, wait, wait―Ah!!”
