But also, Koyomi understands that Hitagi is doing this with an important purpose in mind. Unfortunately, Hitagi doesn’t want to share the story with him.
That’s when Koyomi starts to remember what happened the day he was kidnapped. It’s summer time and Koyomi has being tutored daily by Hitagi and Tsubasa Hanekawa. But today he has nothing to do and is really bored, so he decides to do soemthing different.
