The next morning, Yoriko has woken up from her bed and she took a shower before getting dressed in her school uniform. Speaking of getting dressed, she puts on the medical eyepatch to cover up her right eye which has become ghoul-like. At least she managed to avoid letting her parents and sister know the real reason for wearing it as she did not want them to worry with what she has become.

After dressing up, she took a hearty breakfast which is not hearty for her anymore due to the disgusting taste of its contents, but at least she avoided throwing up it all up after a few minutes in the bathroom. This come up with the cost of feeling a little sick. She could now understand what Touka has been through whenever she fed her with her cooking.

Anyway, she went out of the house to walk to school with Touka.

"Yoriko, are you okay?" Touka began, upon noticing her feeling a little sick.

"I'm okay, really. Just going through you've been through whenever I made you eat my food. This time, I didn't puke the breakfast my mother cooked for me," Yoriko admitted.

"I see... Don't worry, you'll feel safe eating human meat after school."

"Yeah..."


Meanwhile, Chigurh is eating his breakfast of bacon and eggs while reading his book. He's on the next chapter, and he got some ideas on what to do around Tokyo. A week ago after making a reservation, he witnessed a familiar group heading to the motel, and he knows they're ghouls.

They're members of the group known as Clowns. Perhaps it's time to commit murder in the morning.

After having finished his breakfast, he walked outside the door of their room, carrying the silenced shotgun on his right hand and the captive bolt pistol on his left hand. Knowing fully well that the door is locked upon going there, he uses the weapon on his left hand to open the lock by force. Upon entering, he quickly shot the ghoul to his chest with the weapon on his right hand before he gets the chance to activate his kagune. Then he shot him again which sends him falling to the floor dead.

To make sure no one is witnessing what he is doing, he quickly closed the door. Another ghoul tries to attack him, but he shot him quickly before he could do so. Just to provoke for another attack, he made a shot to the wall. That's where the third ghoul attempts to attack him with his kagune which is a bikaku. He manages to avoid being slammed by his tail before taking two shots on it, and one to his chest to finish him off. Then he went to the bathroom to see the fourth ghoul, but he surrenders instead.

"Don't shoot me. I surrender," the ghoul pleaded.

"What are you doing here?" Chigurh asked.

"We're just playing a game, that's all," was his reply.

"Uh huh, sure..."

"Please, show some mercy."

One thing Chigurh cannot understand from his victims is that they're asking him to give them mercy. Anyway, he isn't planning to give mercy to this ghoul he is about to kill, so he closed the curtain and looked away before taking a shot at him to kill him.

After this, he searched the room for any clues, but he has found nothing, not even from the drawers. He used one of his coins to open the vent to see an object there, and it's a map. Grabbing a hold of it, he gave a glance at it to see the Clowns are making shortcuts through other wards.

Satisfied, he left the room, and no one is the wiser to see what he has done.


Author's note: What do you think? Both Yoriko and Chigurh are having their own breakfast, although she is not feeling good about it now that human food is disgusting to her. While she walks to school with Touka, he commits murder in the motel against the Clowns.
