Yuki received an email from Liu Ao, in which it contained a video that was enough to make him suspect something.
Shiro had just been moved to a special room, still in a coma. But after everyone left Shiro's room, Shiro suddenly disappeared from his room.
It was as if his body had turned transparent and disappeared just like that.
Yuki instantly remembered the three mysterious men. Unfortunately, he did not have their contacts.
Because they also have tools made by his brother. It's pretty strange if they act like that. What reason?
Ai had also seen the video with Yuki. Start to understand something.
“Ai, please find out the whereabouts of the three mysterious men. Their trail, whatever happens after we leave the hospital until now.”
Ai understood his task, immediately nodded and started to get busy with his computer.
“Please find out all CCTV footage in hospitals, headquarters and streets around hospitals and headquarters. Then as I recall Shiro has a system to see the presence of people in this headquarters. The system's weight too. I'll help you do it.”
“Any Yuki!” Answer Ai firmly.
The two began to work together. While Aki was not helping them, she went up to the kitchen on the first floor to make lunch.
Yuki knows Aki is around him, but the situation and circumstances of the relationship are awkward. So Yuki did not call Aki.
Several days spent searching for information about Shiro's whereabouts and the reason why he disappeared.
But the deeper they dug into the information, the more evidence and facts they found earlier in the beginning became more and more distant from them.
Yuki and Ai did not understand what was going on. Why did they not find any information?
The two were unable to contact the mysterious men, even tracking their tracks they were unable to, as the three were very good at hiding and disguising themselves.
***
That night was new year's night. The atmosphere of the headquarters was still very gloomy.
The relocation of the suburban villagers is still going according to plan. But their fighting spirit, the Kirifuda Army and Core Members began to disintegrate.
The core members of Kirifuda are like losing their footing. Especially when Yuki was still unable to find the whereabouts of her brother and the three mysterious men.
Every day she spends her time in the computer room or in Shiro's room, hoping that one day her brother will return.
The young man was still trying to find his brother's whereabouts. But the result is always nil.
Yuki doesn't understand what else to do. He increasingly had no intention of living, discouraged and disappointed.
His relationship with Aki is getting more and more tenuous. The two rarely spoke to each other.
The two try to avoid each other. Haruki was increasingly not eager to do his activities, the other members also more often daydream.
Without Shiro around them, making the organization like it has no life.
Yuki's weight even went down a lot, she just shut herself up to look for her brother's whereabouts.
'Tok... Geck... Tok...!’ Ai knocked on Shiro's room door.
“Yuki, I brought you dinner. I'm in?” Ai asked from the front door of Shiro's room.
The two of them work together to find Shiro's whereabouts, which is why Yuki is so close to Ai.
As usual, Yuki did not answer from inside the room. He spoke less and less now.
Without waiting any longer, Ai immediately opened the door, it was never locked.
Shiro's room was very dark, white curtains covering the French windows of Shiro's room.
“Yuki?” Ai tried to familiarize her eyes with the darkness.
He's looking for Yuki's whereabouts...
After going deeper, Ai heard a groaning sound from Shiro's bed above.
"Yuki's? What's up?" Ai was very surprised to hear Yuki's moaning voice.
He immediately placed a tray containing dinner and water on the middle tea table of the room.
Ai climbed the stairs to the bed, and saw Yuki moaning in pain at the edge of her brother's bed.
"Yuki?! What happened to you?!" Ai is shocked and confused to see Yuki's condition.
The young man curled up on the edge of his brother's bed while hugging his trembling body violently.
Ai approached Yuki, checking her state. Looks like Yuki is delirious in her sleep.
Ai saw Yuki crying in pain. She did not know what was in Yuki's dream, but Ai guessed that it was something very painful.
"Yuki's? Yuki's up..." Ai woke Yuki up gently.
"Sister Shiro?! Brother where have you been? I miss you so much, brother..." Yuki cried after seeing Ai.
Ai is confused by Yuki's attitude, "Yuki I'm open-"
"Sister Shiro don't go like that anymore. Yuki's scared!" The young man ignored Ai's words and directly cut him off.
Before hearing Ai's explanation, Yuki immediately hugged her tightly.
She hallucinates that Ai is her sister. The girl did not understand how. If she tells Yuki the truth, she is sure Yuki will come back sad.
But he is not Shiro Yuki's older brother...
Ai was in a big dilemma.
"Yuki, let's eat first..." Ai could not bear to see the condition of Yuki, her body that used to be very good, in just a few days turned into thin dry like that.
"Sister, don't go again... I don't like my brother leaving me like that!" Said Yuki while tightly holding the hand of 'Shiro'.
Yuki is afraid that her brother is disappearing again, Yuki is afraid that her brother is leaving her.
Ai can finally only pretend to be Shiro like Yuki's shadow.
"Yes, your brother will not leave again. Now let's eat first." Bring Ai.
The two got off the bed and sat on a fur carpet in the middle of the room.
Ai did not turn on all the room lights, so the room had a dim light.
Ai sat in front of Yuki, serving the food she had brought.
"That's cooking for you today. Eat a lot. Don't get sick. Look at your skinny body." Said Ai to Yuki.
In Yuki's eyes, the one who spoke to her was Shiro her brother, not Ai.
So that he obeyed Ai's words. Yuki ate voraciously. In the last few days, he rarely ate. The longer they almost never eat.
"How does it feel?" Ask Ai.
"I don't know, it might be delicious. Doesn't Brother Shiro know that I can't taste any food or drink?" Ask Yuki in wonder.
It was actually no secret, but Yuki and Shiro had never told anyone about it.
Yuki could not distinguish the taste. More precisely he had no sense of taste. He does not know the taste of sweet, salty, spicy, or even savory.
Yuki only knew the taste of the cuisine from her brother. The young man is very good at cooking. But never knew that his cooking had an amazingly good taste.
"Yes? Maybe I forgot." Said Ai covering up her shock.
Ai was confused, how could someone who was good at cooking turned out to be unable to taste the taste of cooking.
"For a long time, if I cooked something or ate something, it was always my sister who tasted it first." Answer Yuki.
Ai just nodded.
"Nobody anywhere? Why leave me like that?" Ask Yuki.
The memory of her brother missing made her hurt.
Ai didn't know what to answer. He was still confused, why did Yuki suddenly call him Shiro.
She is afraid that if Yuki realizes that she is not Shiro, will Yuki be angry?
Ai was in the wrong position. Don't know what to do.
Ever since Shiro disappeared, Yuki never had the spirit of life again. Increasingly shut down, not listening to his friends.
Aki, Kurina, Are and Haruki were very worried about Yuki's state.
They finally know that the two brothers, Yuki and Shiro can never be separated. They initially assume that Shiro has always been dependent on Yuki, as Shiro is not as strong and tough as Yuki.
But it turns out that the truth is, Yuki also depends on Shiro. She couldn't be far from her brother.
Even parting with her brother would be fatal to Yuki. Depression and almost going crazy is the right word to describe Yuki's current state.
180 Degrees from the Yuki they knew.
