“It looks bad, but the injuries aren’t serious. Treatment will suffice.”

Deep Blood Himegami Aisa spoke calmly. Kamijou had dragged the Misawa student, the girl with braids, onto the corridor.

“B-but she’s covered in blood!”

Kamijou placed the girl on the floor, and couldn’t help but roar on seeing her. That unknown school’s summer uniform was already dyed fresh red. Her face, hands and other exposed parts of the skin were damaged and looked like a layer of plastic was wrapped over them.

“Only her skin that was damaged caused damage to the capillaries. Had her arteries ruptured, it would have been worse. The blood would gush out like a fountain.”

“How… do… you—”

(You’re not a doctor—and even if you’re are, you need to thoroughly check this. How can you make such a prognosis like that?)

“I’m more informed about the flow of blood than others.”

Kamijou was stunned and automatically recalled the name of Himegami Aisa’s ability.

“Help me.”

However, Himegami herself didn’t seem to notice Kamijou’s reaction, probably because she was giving emergency treatment. She began to undress the wounded girl in front of the boy.

“Uwah, hold on…”

“Don’t overreact. That would be too disrespectful to the injured.”

Though Kamijou was panicking about something else, but thinking about it, there was something wrong about thinking about a girl’s naked body at a time like that. It was like how a doctor who would get excited on seeing a patient’s naked body would get fired.

What Himegami did next could be compared to doctors and paramedics.

She first used a handkerchief to stop the bleeding thoroughly, and since she couldn’t stop the bleeding at the wrists with the cloth, she used Kamijou’s belt to tie them and stop the blood flow. The abdomen muscles that were ruptured were sewn together by the injured girl’s hair and some needles from a sewing box.

Kamijou couldn’t do anything. He could only follow Himegami’s directions and lift the hands higher than the heart or use the handkerchief to press the wound down. But doing that caused his hands to be stained in blood. It wasn’t because he hurt others, but because he was saving others, and that was a remarkable feeling in him.

“Anyway, she’s alright.”

Himegami, whose shrine maiden outfit had gotten stained in blood, said that as if it were nothing.

“We managed to stop the blood. It’ll take fifteen minutes for the blood to clot, and at that time, the wounds will patch up. However, the sterilization is incomplete. Even though there won’t be any danger in the next two hours, it’s better to send her to the hospital just to be safe.”

“…”

Kamijou again stared at the injured person on the floor. The girl was about as old as Kamijou, but her wounds were so serious that it was hard to imagine that. Psychologically, she shouldn’t be faring any better as well.

It’s true that he should be happy that they managed to save her life.

However, she lost everything, and that bothered Kamijou.

“We did what we could, now… we can only leave it to Academy City’s technology.”
