HINO

Hino didn't get any rest, and he doubted anybody in Sumire's circle did. The SF, HYOU4, Akagumi and the Holy Knights Tokyo branch have been running around all night, trying to find out more regarding the case. An attack of this magnitude, for it to happen right under their noses despite the security around Sumire.

Makoto's shadow guards that had been around Sumire were all found dead in a park nearby. The trouble Mashima's subordinate was caught up in was being in the middle of those dead bodies.

'That guy couldn't have killed them.'

Indeed, Makoto's shadow guards are highly trained individuals. Nobody but Sumire or Tsueno could take out that many. According to the SF, who went around interviewing the other residences. Several people claid to see suspicious figures lurking around the apartnt building for the past few weeks.

It was a planned attack, a well planned one. But, how did they know Sumire was staying in Mashima's place? Did they sneak around her house first and realized she wasn't there? Did they follow her after the concert or another ti?

Whenever he walks her to Mashima's, they always take a long detour. It's strange, how did they know? Even if they found the building, how did they get the apartnt number? There are many people living in that building, and the security is built for celebrities.

There is sothing they are missing. If four groups are working on the case, and still not finding anything. Then sothing is wrong.

At 7am, the doors to Sumire's room burst open and there stood Yuhi. Hino looked at him surprised. The flight from New york to Japan should have taken twelve to thirteen hours. How did he get here in such a short amount of ti?

"Yuhi, how did you-"

"The pilot and a few others on board were evolved humans. I explained the situation, and so of them were Sumire's fans so they used their powers to speed up the flight." Yuhi loosened his tie. "If we had Mamoru's power, I would have been here sooner."

Hino shakes his head. "It's already enough that you're here now. The operation was a success but she hasn't woken up yet. They've been doing tests all night, but she won't wake up."

Surprisingly Mashima stepped back and also yanked Sano away.

Yuhi walked over to the bed as he grabbed hold of "You really can't stop getting yourself in trouble can you. Hey silly girl, didn't you want to talk to after the show? You wanted to praise you silly and tell you how cute, amazing and adorable you are right? You wanted to tell you how much I loved you, and honestly I even prepared a grand speech that would have made your pretty cheeks turn that nice lovely shade of red."

Hino coughed. What is he doing shalessly flirting? Moreover with Sano and Mashima here.

To his surprise Yuhi suddenly cut his arm with a small blade and extended it towards Sumire's mouth.

"I can't say I know much about healing. But our bodies have always been different from the rest. If you're not able to wake up using normal thods, then we try otherworldly thods."

The blood from Yuhi's arm dripped onto Sumire's now open mouth. Mashima had walked over and opened Sumire's mouth. The minute the blood dripped inside, Hino saw a flicker on the monitor.

"Just now." Hino mumbled.

"Terashima, what blood type are you? No actually...even if you just donate blood like that--" Sano imdiately grabbed a blood transfusion tube and extended it towards Yuhi.

Yuhi nodded and allowed Sano to wrap it around his arm, and did the sa with Sumire.

Monts later, they see familiar numbers on the monitor beside Sumire. Ever since the operation ended, the monitor remained still. It was clearly working since the light was still on. In the end they concluded that Sumire's heart was still beating but it was so weak, that the machines couldn't detect anything.

Sano signed in relief. "Alright, I can work with this."I think you should take a look at

"Do you need help?" Toh asked.

"I'm fine. I've cald down, I can do this." Sano stood up. "I'll be going to the lab. If anything happens, Hino you know where to find ."

Sano quickly exited the room. Mashima exhaled deeply. "I'm going to have to make a report to Lucifer."

Hino's gaze dimd but Yuhi spoke up. "Do it. If it isn't your boss who ordered this. I am sure he can find who did."

"When Sumire got stabbed, Lucifer ended up hurt too." Toh explained. "This is the reason why he has never ordered any physical attacks on her."

"The forced connection." Hino said understanding.

Now it makes sense why Lucifer ordered his n not to harm Sumire physically.

"Yes. For minor injuries and sickness, he can suppress it with his own ability. But for life threatening injuries? Lucifer can't suppress that. When Sumire was on the verge of death, Lucifer was in the sa situation."

That explains why Mashima left for a few hours. He must have gone to check on the situation.

"I'll leave now. But if anything happens here just let know." Toh pointed to Sumire's phone on the bedside table. "She has my number."

With those words said Mashima exited the room. Yuhi picked up the phone now free of blood stains. He typed in the password and it imdiately unlocked. He was rummaging through it, when he paused and frowned.

"There is a GPS app on here."

"Isn't it the one you two use?"

Yuhi shakes his head. "This one is different. It was installed fairly recently." He trailed off. "This must be how they got the address."

"How did they get to her phone though?"

"It's really easy. Sumire probably leant her phone to soone."

"There was an artist in one of her shows not too long ago. She left her phone at ho and had no way of contacting her manager. So Sumire leant her phone."

"Do you know which artist it was? Perhaps she can give us so information."

Hino nodded. "I'll contact her agency. I don't think she is one of the malicious artists who hate her. She probably just got told to install the app."

Short black hair, glasses. Kurokawa Hanabi. A famous actress, but has a shy personality. They do say the quiet ones are the ones to watch out for. But Hino got this feeling when he was watching her interactions with Sumire. She is clearly a fan.
