[Considering that the situation had already become serious enough for someone to die at any moment, Megumi Fushiguro's mind raced as he dashed out of the hospital.]
[It would still take quite some time to run from here to Sugisawa Third High School. If he relied on his own two legs, those club students courting death would probably have become food for cursed spirits long before he arrived.]
