How Hashirama Died

I died beneath the Ferris wheel. The killer took a photo of the Ferris wheel and sent it to my mother. 'Mom, I want to ride the Ferris wheel with you too,' wrote the killer.

Mia just started her internship. Can’t you give her the chance to practice?" When I died from the botched surgery, she turned gray overnight.
