All the first-aid and other basic skills Alucard had taught him? Worse than useless on a corpse. A corpse taking up a bed in the place where Hajime had been trying desperately to not think about what was going on outside the station.
But Ryuji being one of the ones who'd seen her is why he'd texted him in the first place. That, and it seems a little weird to ask a girl (Erika) over for a sleepover.]
