Because they got along well with Yoshida, Cheng Shuang, Qianli, and Yumi became the representatives to visit Maki.
The four of them received their class funds after school on Friday and, after all the classmates voted, bought a small fruit basket and went to the hospital.
Maki's problem was beyond the reach of the small hospital near Mount Shindo, so a few days ago she was transferred to a hospital in the city. It only took half an hour by car from the school for the four of them to get to the hospital.
