Later on at Anteiku, Yoriko is seen sitting at the table staring at the coffee cup she's given.
"So coffee is the only human food ghouls can taste?" she asked.
"Yes, it is," Touka replied, sitting in front of her direction.
"If that's the case, then here goes."
Yoriko grabbed the cup, and she took one sip. She suddenly found the coffee delicious to her.
"My, it's delicious," she looked enamored with the beverage.
"I can assume this is the first time you've tasted coffee?" Nishiki asked while wiping the tables.
"Yes..." Yoriko admitted. "I never tested coffee before in my life. I always thought of it as gross so I wasn't able to drink it let alone coming here until now. Um, no offense for calling coffee 'gross'."
"Don't worry about it, we understand," Irimi said with a sweet smile on her face. "This is not the first time a ghoul, let alone a human converted into one, criticized the taste of coffee, and you definitely won't be the last."
"Also, you did a good job standing up against Chigurh," Koma added. "I'm sure this is not the last time you're gonna see him."
"Yeah, now that he knows you survived, he's going to finish his job with you."
"And that reminds me. It's about time I show her something very important now that she's half-ghoul," Touka piped in.
"Huh? What's that?" Yoriko asked in a confused tone.
"Follow me."
The two girls take off their uniforms and changed into street clothes. It's sunset, and Touka wanted to show her best friend a very important item to use in her fight against Chigurh.
They went to a mask shop.
"Now, the most important thing you needed if you were to go out doing ghoul stuff is a mask," the purple-haired girl said.
"Oh, okay," her friend nodded, quickly understanding what that means.
Touka rings the bell to the counter, and Uta has appeared.
"Oh, it's you. How can I help?" Uta asked her before turning to Yoriko. "Let me guess. She's a newbie to this ghoul stuff. Reminds me of... Kaneki."
"Wow, you're good to figure this stuff out," Yoriko is amazed on what he said about her.
"Anyway, what happened to her?" he asked Touka.
"Let's just say she encountered some psycho who shot her and left her for dead. Before she knew it, the same doctor who turned Kaneki has turned her into a half-ghoul," was her reply, and she looked bitter due to her anger towards Chigurh for what he did.
"I see... Now you want to hunt down that guy, am I right? Well, you've come to the right place."
Yoriko tries out a variety of masks until she found the right one for herself.
It's a cat mask.
"Wow, that looks good on you," Touka complimented.
"Thanks..." Yoriko blushed underneath her mask. "I wanna see your mask."
"I already picked this up a long time ago when Yoshimura took me in," the purple-haired girl said as she wore her mask, and it's a rabbit.
"A rabbit? That's so cool! Then again, you have a strong liking for rabbits," her friend is amazed by her choice of mask.
Now being aware of each other's masks, the two girls left the store with payment for Yoriko's item.
"Also, you have to get an alias. Mine is Rabbit," Touka stated as they walked.
"Oh, okay. If that were to be the case, my alias is Cat," Yoriko said.
"Now your secret identity has been created."
"It feels incredible to be a superhero."
"If only humanity doesn't fear ghouls..."
