Right! There was no time to waste. You'd have to put on a disguise and sneak out like the super spy in one of Takatsuki Sen's stories, although you hadn't really understood much of it. But once you learn more kanji it should be easy to reread it! Then you can talk about them with Kaneki and Touka...
Touka should have clothing in her room right?
"Kyuubei, could you be my look out?" Kyuubei's head swivels to you from the news paper he was reading.
"Will you be practicing with your new magic? I do not mind assisting in any scenario to leave Anteiku, but there is no need for you and I to separate." When he gets up from sitting position you can see that the paper he was reading must have torn. You'll have to apologize to Touka, although it was just a newpaper so getting a bit ripped up isn't too bad. Maybe.
Kyuubei hops onto your shoulder with tail swaying as is always, and you approach the door with bounce in your step. Heart with just a jolt more speed.
"It's safe to leave the room, Hinami-chan."
You take your time opening and closing the door, theatrics to liven yourself even more because for the first time since mother and father died, you do not find your thoughts tying back to their deaths in a way that makes you want to curl up and wilt away. There is a sense of wonder and excitement again as you creep into your big sister's room and investigate it with Kyuubei.
Looking at the ring, golden and gleaming bright even with only sunlight beaming into the room past curtains, you can't help but let a grin go across your face. Maybe it's a bit bad to feel so giddy.
What crimes you commit by living, you can possibly give back to humans by fighting monsters and curses. Mother would have wanted this too. You can be a good person despite being a ghoul, and protect all the people who care about you. Like a weight has been lifted from you, you and Kyuubei begin to compare and contrast clothing.
About ten minutes later, and wow big sis even has wigs, you are given a small lesson in grown up girl things as you try to use a bit of Touka's make up stuff to have an even better disguise...
In the end you both give up and settle for a medical mask, common for people who are scared of germs, and a pink wig that apparently makes you look a lot different because of the color and length? You never knew clothing and hairstyle could make someone so different looking. Giving a twirl to the mirror as a good bye, maybe a few twirls, you scoop up Kyuubei and hop out the window at his affirmation.
Rights and lefts, a dozen turns according to Kyuubei's instructions that led you further from Anteiku and deeper into a residential area. Not once do you catch the scent of Doves, walking among people or sometimes against the current of bodies traveling across the city just like you.
Probably not for the same reasons as you, but maybe one of them is!
You eventually reach a back alley passage created by the construction of new buildings conflicting with that of previously created ones. It seems like it used to be a well used road that was phased out by latter planning, but you don't really know much about that sort of thing. There are a few trashcans and assorted things like an old vending machine, but otherwise this spot is ignored by the rest of the world.
Kyuubei jumps off of his place lying on your head and inspects a fallen can on the ground with his paw.
"Don't worry. This alley has a lot of good targets and I'll warn you if someone comes close."
