Keyara hurriedly ran towards the toilet in panic. Ruri and Anya looked at each other and then followed Keyara to the restroom.

Once Keyara entered the women's toilet, she immediately looked in the mirror to observe the bruise on her neck.

She found it when she let her long hair down and looked at the left side of her neck. The pinkish-red bruise on her slender, white neck appeared to be circular.
